Okay friends, today we have an extra dextra special story to bring to you! A wholesome story involving rescue, friendship, and one super chonky bee, A teen formed a special bond with a bumblebee she saved two weeks ago who now won't leave her, even when she goes to the shops, and it went on a family bowling trip.

"Lacey Shillinglaw, 13, spotted the large fluffy bumblebee lying in the road as she returned with her mum, Laura Pashley, 35, from walking the family dog in Coundon wedge, Coventry on Saturday August 7. Worried for the creature's safety, the teen scooped up the bee, now Betty, who had one crumpled wing. Story via SWNS

"The rescuer spent an hour trying to put Betty on flowers in a local park on the way home, but the bee kept fluttering back onto her new friend, so Lacey allowed her to hitch a ride home on her: Betty happily wandering over Lacey's arms, shoulders and head." Story via SWNS

"On the way Betty perched on the girl's glasses as she went into her local shop to buy milk, and other shoppers kept their distance, said mum. Betty's love for Lacey is steadfast, and she still follows her everywhere, even though her crumpled wing is fully recovered." Story via SWNS
