CAMILA POV
It's been 30 minutes since she said she would be here. She should be arriving anytime now. I told her to come to my window. It's late and I don't want my parents to know someone is coming over this late. I heard a tapping on my window. Here goes nothing. I made my way over there pushing the curtain aside and unlocking it. I slowly push it up. The dark haired girl crawled through. When she stood tall she looked me up and down before speaking. "Fuck you look good." Her words were slurred. Maybe her coming here was a mistake. I should just send her home.
"I didn't know you were drunk. You should just leave." I said with disappointment with the fact that she came here wasted. "I'm not even drunk." She slurred every word again. I laughed at her. "Okay then walk in a straight line without falling." She gave me her challenge accepted face. "You know it's hard for me to do anything straight cause well i'm not." She winked and cracked up at her own failed joke. While laughing she attempted to walk in a line but fell short and landed on the ground laughing. "Fuck that's gonna hurt in the morning." I helped the girl up. She wrapped her arms around me then pulled back and kissed me. I could taste the alcohol on her mouth. Her lips felt so good on mine. I pulled back. "You should go. I don't wanna do this while you're drunk." She sighed. "I told you i'm not drunk and i'm not leaving you Camz not till we talk." She placed both her hands on the sides of my face and leaned in and kissed me again. "Lauren stop." I pulled away again and sat on the edge of my bed. "Let's talk." I patted the spot next to me for her to sit. The emerald eye girl made her way next to me. "Okay now tell me everything."
"Alright about 5 months ago I ran into Dinah at this party. I remembered her from the concert so I went up to her and tried talking to her but I was met with her fist hitting me in the face." She gestured to her face as she spoke the last part. "Wait Dinahs the one who punched you?" I asked. Remembering seeing a picture on her instagram of her with a black eye. She nodded her head silently. "Good. Continue." Lauren laughed then went on. "Awhile after punching me she came up to me and said she was sorry but I deserved it. Which I agreed with and after that we started talking about you. She told me that your guys relationship went downhill after that night. She also informed me that you continued using." I didn't know what to say so I just motioned my hand for her to keep going. "Later in the evening after a lot of drinks Dinah asked if I cared about you." She stopped for a second. "I said yes and then asked for your number. Dinah laughed at me and said I had to earn it. So she came up with an idea that if I stopped drinking and sleeping around for the rest of the year she would grant me with your number. I obviously succeeded as always." She finished in a cocky tone. "Then after I got your number I asked Dinah to help me make you forgive me. I didn't know at the time you two still weren't talking though. I told her to text you because if this was going to work I needed her in your life." She paused for a second before continuing. "Honestly I thought it would take a lot more for you to get you to forgive me. So after you somewhat forgave me I told her the next plan was to make you fall in love with me and that's all of it"
"What about last weekend? That person said that you partied with them after you told me you went to your parents for your dad's birthday." Lauren shook her head smiling. "That was my best friend Vero. She was at my dad's party. Nothing happened. We didn't even drink. We literally just binge watched the new season of Orange Is The New Black." Lauren stayed silent for a second. "I'm not gonna lie to you. Vero and I have hooked up before but we realized it was a mistake and were better off friends. Now do you have any questions or can I please just kiss you?" As appealing as it sounds to kiss her i'm not feeling it. "Lauren I think you should go."
"What? But I just told you the truth it was nothing bad?" She stood up making what she said more dramatic. "I just think this." I moved my hand between the two of us. "Will ever work. You lied to me." She started to raise her voice. " I didn't lie to you!" I shushed her. "Please keep your voice down I don't want my dad finding you in here." She listened to me and lowered her voice. "I didn't lie Camz." Lauren sat back down and interlocked our fingers. "But you didn't tell me.. You could have told me." She continued playing with my hand. "It's only been two weeks. I didn't know how to without sounding like a creep." She said looking down at our hands. "I don't want to lose you. I just got you back into my life." Her voice was about to crack. I could tell she was being sincere. "Lauren like you said it's only been two weeks. No real feelings can be developed in two weeks." I saw a tear fall from her face before she stood up and went to climb out the window she came through and just like that she ran away and didn't come back.
LAUREN POV
"Lauren you smell like hell. When was the last time you left your room?" Karma said walking into my room and opening my blinds. "The sudden light hurt my eyes. I threw my pillow over my head. "Fuck close them." She didn't listen to me. "Get your ass out of bed. You have a visitor." I poked my head up "Who?" Karma shrugged her shoulders. " I don't know. She looks like she's ready to kill someone though." With that she left my room. I really didn't want to get out of bed but I did I threw on my bra and some sweats before leaving my cave. I walked down the hall and saw the tall polynesian. Fuck no not today. She spotted me right as I was turning around to go back to where I came from. "Oh hell no Lauren Jauregui get your ass out here!" I stopped in my tracks and went to the younger girl. "What?" She slapped me. "What the fuck Dinah?" She went to do it again but I dodge it. "It's been a fucking month. I'm going to keep slapping you until go talk to Mila." I clenched my jaw. "She told me to leave so fuck off." I went to leave but my face was connected with the palm of Dinah's hand yet again. "She's scared of getting hurt. Just go fucking talk to her dumbass. Karma said you've been moping around just as much as she has." I walked to the bathroom and 30 minutes later came out looking hot as fuck. I walked past Dinah and out the door.
I arrived at Camila's house not knowing what I was going to say or do. I was tempted to just turn around and leave. I was standing outside her window. I thought it would be fitting since I left out it the last time we saw each other. Before I bitched out I knocked on the window. She popped her head in it completely confused. When she saw me I could see the sadness overtake her. She opened the window. I took that as my sign to come in. This was a lot easier when I was drunk. "Would it be too much to ask for a little help?" She walked over and grabbed my hand and pulled. I made it through. "Fuck. That was fun." I tried smiling at her but she wasn't having any of it. "What do you want Lauren?" She asked with no emotion. I still had no idea what I was going to say. "Give me a second I didn't really think this through." Camila rolled her eyes at me.
We stood there for what felt like days but it was only 5 minutes. "Are you gonna say something or just stand there staring at me? I didn't even realize I was staring at her. "Look Camz.. I did what I thought you wanted I left." She scoffed. "I might have said leave but I wanted you to stay and fight a little. But instead you ran away like the little bitch you are."I really wasn't expecting this. "You told me to leave. I wanted to stay I said that so if anyone is running away it's you. She went to say something but I didn't let her. "How was I supposed to know you wanted me to stay when you kept telling me to leave. As much as i'd like to I can't read minds Camila." It took me a second to think of what to say next. " You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak. No matter what you say I won't let you runaway.."
"Shut up." Camila threw her head back and smiled. "God what are you doing to me Jauregui." I took that as my cue. I walked up to the beautiful girl in front of me and crashed our lips together. God have I miss this feeling. The way we move so perfectly together. The last month with out this has been hell. Not having Camila has been hell. Not talking to her or seeing her made me realize how much I need her in my life. It only took Dinah slapping me to get me to chase after what I want and all I want is Camila. I pulled back from our kiss. "I'm falling for you Cabello."
