Mrs. Jauregui

Chapter 15

Lauren and Ally were putting all the babies to in their cribs, and making sure Honey was getting ready for bed too by brushing her teeth. "Honey, you need to be in bed in five more minutes!" Lauren semi-yells out the room so her daughter can hear her. 

Both moms hear footsteps in the hallway, running into the room. "In bed!" They hear their oldest daughter say back. Ally smiles, and hugs Lauren from behind as she was watching Charlie fall asleep. "This is absolutely perfect." Ally says. 

Lauren turns around, and pulls Ally close. "Why do you say that Als?" Lauren asks. 

Ally looks up and kisses her, "I have you, and our four beautiful healthy babies, our two wonderful dogs, this gorgeous house...nothing can ruin the way I feel knowing I have everything in the world and more...I love you." Lauren feels a ball in her throat, and she pulls Ally closer. "Ally we need to leave."

Lauren feels Ally pull away, with a confused face, "What do you mean?" 

Breathing out, Lauren pulls Ally out of the room. The two walk down the hallway to their room, and Lauren closes the door while Ally sits on the bed with worry. Grabbing her hands, Lauren begins to speak, "Troy escaped prison three days ago...we need to grab the kids and go to either Dinah's or Camila's by tomorrow morning."

"No Lauren we need to leave now." Ally gets up from the bed and starts to grab the kids 'To Go' bags from the closet. Lauren gets flashbacks from Valentine's day, and remembers how Ally's first instinct was to go.

 "Babe, you need to breathe I need you to be calm." Lauren tries to stop Ally, but she's in a different universe. "Ally...ALLY!" Lauren grabs her little wife to make her look at her as gently as she could. Ally begins to cry into Lauren's chest. "I can't have him hurt our kids Lauren I couldn't live with myself..."

Lauren lets out a shaky breath and holds Ally, trying to get her to calm down. "I know, i know...let me show you something real quick." Lauren goes to the top part of the closet, and pulls out a black shoe box. 

Taking the top off, Lauren reveals a hand gun. "I've had it for a while, never planned on using it, never wanted to till now...he's not gonna hurt our kids." Ally puts her hand on the gun, and quickly takes it off. "I'm gonna go downstairs real quick to get my phone, we are gonna go to Dinah's." Ally tells her, and Lauren nods, "I'll wake up Honey." 

Lauren watches Ally walk out of the room, so she goes back to the bed. Not a second later, Lauren's phone begins to buzz and the contact name is 'Alissa'. "Hm, I wonder why she's calling so late." 

Lauren picks up the phone, "Hello?"

"Lauren I'm so sorry, You need to leave!" 

"Alissa what's wro-."

Lauren was cut off by a frantic cry, "HE'S COMING FOR YOU, YOU NEED TO LEAVE YOUR HOUSE NO-."

The call was cut off, along with the lights. Lauren stays still for a moment and lets her eyes adjust to the darkness. Checking her phone, her signal is gone, along with the wifi and power. "Ally?" Lauren calls out, carefully walking into the dark hallway. Putting the flashlight on from her phone, Lauren starts to walk towards the staircase to see if Ally was still down stairs. "Ally? Baby please respond." Lauren calls out again and still nothing.

Then she hears footsteps running up the steps, and grabs the gun from her side. "Lauren shhh!" It was Ally. Lauren sighs in relief, "Why weren't you responding?" Lauren whispers. "Something's not right, we need to get the kids and leave right now." Ally says, so Lauren grabs her to get behind her and begins to quietly walk towards the kids room.
