A/N anything written it italics is her inner thoughts.
Laney POV
I gotta get out of here. That was last thought I had before I sprung into action. Quickly I threw on some shoes and grab my phone and I ran. Just keeping running. You can't stop. You got to get as far away as possible. Bang!!! I was too busy worried about running fast I wasn't paying attention to where I was going. I knocked into a couple heading into a bar. Ouchy. I hit the ground hard and instantly felt pain. I couldn't stop the tears from falling I was so scared and my wrist really hurt. The pretty blonde haired one helped up the tall darker haired on and boy did she look pissed. I know I'm in for it now.  The lady then moved her hand towards me and I immediately freak out.
"No no please I so sorry. Don't hit me. I didn't mean too!" I flinch waiting for the pain to start but it didn't.  Instead I hear a raspy voice telling everything is okay. Why isn't she hitting me? This is trapped I know it is. I ran her over, surely she gonna beat me I deserve it. I see her her move closer to my face and I flinch again expecting a harsh slap to face but it never comes. I see her lips moving and I know she is talking but I'm so scared I barely understand what she saying. I see her reach for her pants, Oh no she gonna hit me with her belt. I hate the belt it hurt so much when Mama used to hit me  with it. Rather than the belt I thought she was going to hit me with I see her hand reach out to me with something shiny, I go to reach for it but I stop halfway it's just too scary, I don't want her to be angry for me touching it. Mama always told me to look with eyes not with your hands.

"It's okay you can grab it and hold on to it" the dark haired lady says. After a moment of hesitation I grab the shiny metal thingy from her hand only to realize it's a policeman's badge. She a police lady. She helps people right? Mama always use to tell me before she became meany Mama that if I get lost or hurt try to find a policeman to help me. But what if she not a nice police lady? She's seems really nice but Mama was nice too and now Mama hates me. After much consideration I reach my hand out to her. She quickly lifts me up on her hip and holds me tight. After that moment I decided she is nice police lady and she is really strong because Mama always told me I was too big for her to carry and that I need to lose weight I'm only 4'9 and I weigh 98lbs. I get comfy on her hip and lay my head down on her shoulder, she smiles at me then looks over at the other woman. As we start walking I remembered that I never told them my name. So I quietly squeak out "My name is Laney"

The pretty blonde looks over to me and says "Wow that's a very pretty name Laney for a very pretty little girl" I smile a little at her she seems nice but I don't remember her name. Oh no they are gonna be really really mad that I didn't pay attention when they were talking. And I forgot their names because I was too scared to pay attention. I began panicking and that caused me to move a lot . I must have moved too much because I heard the raspy voice again.
"Hey, there wiggle worm whats wrong?" She questioned me but I just looked up at her in fear and began to cry.
"Hey little one, it's okay. Sweetie can you tell what's wrong" her calling me little one and the cute pet names caused me to slip a little. "I no want yous to be mad at me." They both looked at each other surprised that I seem to have slipped but then with a confused look the dark haired one says, "Aw sweetie why would we be mad at you, you didn't do anything wrong." I shook my head yes to tell them that I did do something bad. I also try to hide my face as continued to cry and whine but since she was holding me she wouldn't let me 
"Laney, can you tell us what you think you did wrong little one. I promise we won't be mad" the blonde one says.  I looked up at her with my tears eyes, taking a shaky breath I told her what I did wrong. "Me no lissen wen yous talk and me can't member yours name" I wait for her to shout at me calling my stupid for not listening like Mama always does but she doesn't instead she smiles at me while saying " That's okay Laney. There's nothing to be afraid of sweetheart. We can just tell you again. My name is Maura and the one who holding you is my wife Jane."
