Her mom yells!

As Lauren prayed for them not to know suddenly a booming yell came from the beach. “LAUREN ADKINS!”

Lauren’s eyes widened at her name as she immediately turned to see her mother storming down the beach. That was when she realized she hadn’t seen Vanessa in a while. “M-mom?!” Lauren cried and then threw her hands over her mouth as the girls all stared.

“What are you doing naked on the beach!” Lauren’s mom yelled.

“I… I…” Lauren cried.

“That’s Lauren?” May said. “We thought she was a boy named Larry!”

“Larry?” Lauren’s mom said. “Your sister told me that you were trying to pretend to be a boy… but you were trying to trick these girls into dating you?”

Lauren shook her head. “No it wasn’t like that… please…”

Lauren’s mom grabbed her wrist. And then paused. “Actually…. If you want to be naked on the beach so bad. You can do so without tricking anyone.”

“M-mom?”

“You can stay as long as you are naked,” her mom said. “But first…”

“Mom, please,” Lauren pleaded.
