The Wolf Girl

Seven

Some stories are easier to write than others. This is one that isn't as easy. It's been months. But here is a new chapter. Enjoy.

Who watches Game of Thrones? I love Podrick. I hope Pod doesn't die. I hope Pod sits on the Iron Throne. I was going to write something else but I got distracted by Pod on my television.

Three year old Lauren followed the butterfly. It looked so pretty and she wanted to get it for her little brother.

Lauren climbed off her little chair and walked towards the small bug. The butterfly was flying away, and Lauren's little feet couldn't catch up. She ran passed the trees. She was busy looking up at the pretty bug, she didn't notice the branches on the ground until her foot got caught under one and she fell down. She whimpered, her ankle throbbing.

She took the moment to look around the room and saw that she didn't know where she was. Her heart started to beat quicker, as tears filled her eyes. She couldn't see her parents, and that scared her.

"Mami!" Lauren shouted, looking around. "Papi!"

She hugged herself. She wanted her parents. She just wanted to go home.

"Hurry!" Dinah called out, the leash wrapped around her hand. She could feel Lauren pulling against her. The girl raised by wolves seemed ready to run off.

"Hold your horses," Ally said, placing the things they were going to need in the back of the car.

"C'mere Lolo," Camila called, patting her lap.

The feral girl listened to the direction. She tried to run towards them, but was pulled back. Lauren whimpered, pulling at the leash. She went to look at the pictures, taking in the scent of everything she saw.

"I still find it funny that she hasn't figured out how to unhook it," Normani said from the passenger seat.

"She hasn't learned to unbutton her pants yet, how do you expect her to unhook herself?" Ally told them, shaking her head.

Camila laughed, patting her lap again. Dinah released the leash and watched as Lauren ran into the car and curl up on Camila's lap. Dinah rolled her eyes, walking towards the car. She got into the passenger's seat. Ally walked towards the driver side and started the car. Normani sighed and sat in the back with Lauren and Camila.

Lauren stared out the window, seeing everything pass by. Camila kept her arms around the girl's waist, trying to keep her safe.

Little Lauren wondered the woods, screaming out to her mommy and daddy. She just wanted someone to take her home. Tears streamed down her face. She was getting hungry and cold.

Camila looked out the window and saw Clara and Mike on their doorway. Ally parked the car and the group of five left the car. Lauren tried to run off, but Camila kept a grip on the leash.

"Camila, Ally, Dinah, Normani, welcome," Clara greeted, her eyes on her eldest daughter.

"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Jauregui," Ally replied, smiling at the woman.

Lauren was looking around, in awe of the place.

"Well, come in, we have lunch ready," Mike told them, signaling for the house. They all walked in the house. Lauren inhaled deeply, her eyes widening. She turned to Camila, as if asking if Camila smelled the food two.

"Go say hi and then we'll eat," Camila said, but only got ignored.

Clara and Mike looked at Camila.
