~It's another, if it ain't one thing
Instigators, like pouring fire on propane
The wrong thing, they be worried about
Ooh, you know females
And how they like to run their mouths
Wanna be, wanna be, just like, talk like, you
(like you) you (like you)
Misery, misery, best company
Don't let them change your mood~
***Sigma-PI-Alpha Sorority House 11AM***
It had been five nights, five sleepless nights for Lauren. She couldn't remember the last time they'd gone this long without speaking; to be more accurate, that the younger brunette hasn't spoken to her. She found herself awake, staring at the ceiling, every night, clutching onto her pillow, wishing it were Camila's warm body instead. She missed her lips poking out, she missed tanned, caramel skin, she missed her soft breathing while she slept, she missed her scent, she missed everything about her. For Lauren, this was worse than hell.
"Arggghhhh!" The green-eyed girl groaned at something being thrown at her as she placed the pillow over her ears trying to drown her friend out.
"Get up!" Cece said throwing an empty water bottle towards her friend.
"It's Friday! I don't have class, leave me alone." She said in a helpless tone.
"Laur! It's GREEK week, are you crazy? You better get up or Ally's gonna KILL you!"
"Shit! I totally forgot!" Lauren popped her head up.
"Go figure, I've never seen you mope around this long before...actually, I've NEVER seen you mope around about ANY girl before." Cece's face resembling that of someone who had just witnessed a miracle happen. "Look Jauregui, just get up, don't want you to get in trouble, all the girls are already at the Greek Square."
Lauren reluctantly got out of bed and made her way towards the bathroom. "Thanks Ce, I'll meet you out there."
***Greek Square***
"Hey Ally, sorry I'm a little late." Lauren said to the shorter girl as she stood on the stage at the Greek Square where all the Fraternities and Sororities gathered.
"Don't worry about it." Ally flashed her a sympathetic smile.
-What the hell was that sad looking smile all about?-
After hearing about what had happened, Ally had decided to stay neutral and not take any sides; Lauren was relieved and it's not like Camila would ever want her to choose anyways.
"Hey Lauren, come with me!" Cece said eagerly, tugging her arm, trying to get her to move to the other side.
"Ce!" She said tugging her arm, "what's with you?" Lauren gave her a questioning look. "I have to stay here, I'm V.P. Remember?" Lauren could see that Cece's attention was behind her; keeping the same worried look on her face.
Lauren slowly turned around to see whatever it was that Cece's eyes were glued to and that's when she saw them. It all began to make sense, Ally's sad half smile and Cece trying to get her to move to the other side.
"Laur-" Cece began to say but was waved off by Lauren's hand.
Camila was sitting next to Darren, one of the Frat boys, with his arm thrown around her shoulder. She was laughing, loudly, throwing her head back, slapping his arm, as if whatever he was saying was the funniest thing she had ever heard.
Lauren just kept staring at Camila, her expression unreadable. Brown eyes finally locked with intense, and I mean intense green eyes, almost as if commanding her attention right then and there.
-Nice try Camz.-
Lauren's lips slowly pulled into a smile; she was very aware of how much pull she had on the younger brunette. Camila couldn't turn away from her gaze, her eyes continued to drift from green eyes to plump lips, back up to green eyes. Darren kept speaking, but to her it was just irrelevant noise. The confident green-eyed girl shot her a quick wink as she continued to smile from the stage. Camila could feel her cheeks burn as she abruptly got up from her seat, turning her head away as she walked towards the rest of their sorority sisters.
-How does SHE do that to me?-
"Okay everyone, don't forget to show your Greek House spirit this week!" Ally yelled into the microphone as the crowd cheered and applauded.
She handed Lauren the mic, "and don't forget, Saturday is THE Greek party, so dress to impress, be prepared to dance the night away with your hot date." She said enticingly into the microphone.
"I could be your hot date Lauren!" A random girl, that seemed to be from the Kappa house, yelled from the back, which caused the crowd to whistle and cheer even louder.
~They try to get at me (They try to get at me)
Behind your back (your back, your back)
Tryin' to tell me that I'm just like the others
But I ain't all bad
No, no, I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I might make you mad, so mad
My bad, no, I ain't all bad~
Camila's head snapped quickly towards the back, glaring at the girl who just yelled.
-Go near Lauren, I. FUCKING. DARE. YOU.-
Lauren's smile grew wider when she noticed Camila's nasty glare towards the girl from the Kappa house.
-She's REALLY sexy when she's jealous.-
She handed Cece the mic, "party theme is Black and White and we're taking down the list of performers for that night! Oh and Kappa girl in the back, Lauren's going stag, but she said to come find her on the dance floor, but she prefers the bar." Cece turned to give Lauren a quick wink, "I got you bro," she whispered causing Lauren to just shake her head and laugh at her best.
"That's a wrap! See you all Sunday and don't forget to show your Greek Spirit!" Ally said cheerfully.
***Sigma-PI-Alpha Sorority House 1AM***
Lauren couldn't stop tossing and turning. She was beyond tired since she's literally had only a couple of hours of sleep the past few nights. It didn't matter what the green-eyed beauty thought about, it always seemed to lead back to her night with Camila.
Kisses on her soft, tanned, caramel skin, kisses on her full, delicious lips, brown eyes that sparkled even in a room only lit by little light, Lauren let out a sigh.
"FUCK!" She yelled out in frustration turning her head into her pillow.
-She won't even hear me out, what am I suppose to do? I can't eat, I can't sleep, JUST GIVE ME A SIGN!-
"Lo," Lauren gasped at the voice whispering her name, "are you okay?"
Lauren popped her head from under her pillow, throwing her legs over her bed, scanning the beautiful figure in front of her, not saying one word. She hugged her pillow tightly as her green eyes traced every inch of Camila, from her dark messy locks that draped over one shoulder, to her lips that slightly quivered, waiting for a response, her collarbone that was exposed since she was wearing a black spaghetti strap tank, to her pink and black plaid boxer shorts, that were REALLY short revealing soft, bonze thighs, the color extending down to her feet.
-Beautiful.-
Camila walked over slowly to the older brunette cupping her face with both hands, green eyes meeting brown concerned ones.
"You okay Lauren? I heard you yell." She searched green, tired eyes for an answer. "Lo, say something PLEASE, you're worrying me."
Still no answer.
Camila continued to look into Lauren's glistening green eyes, her heart beating a little faster with every second that passed. She found herself bending down just a little more, her lips brushing that of the older brunette's as she bent down to give her a kiss, lightly tugging on her bottom lip as she slowly pulled away.
"Just fine." Lauren smiled, still with her eyes closed as she placed her hands on the hands cupping her face.
She opened her eyes slowly, "So you'll kiss me, but you won't give me the time of day to explain? Is that how it works?" She let out a light chuckle as Camila pulled away, pacing back in forth in front of her.
~Between us, they wanna comment
Your worst enemy some time be your best friend
Perfect, ain't saying that I am
Proven, it's proven I don't give a damn
Wanna be, wanna be everything I ought to be to you (to you)
Envy, envy, same thing as jealousy
Jealous of you
That's what they do~
Lauren stood up to stop the younger girl from pacing, grabbing her by the waist to meet her gaze. "She kissed ME. I didn't want her to; she did it before I could stop her, Camz? You have to believe me." She said dipping lower to look into brown eyes.
"I do believe you Lauren, it's just…"
"It's just what Camila?"
"You and me, I don't think it's a good idea." She shook her head slightly.
"Why?" Lauren asked, her voice soft as she squeezed her waist.
"Because!"
Lauren shot her a look, "BECAUSE isn't an answer."
Camila took a step back, breaking contact. "Because, I don't trust myself when I'm with you."
Lauren looked at her confused, completely taken aback.
"I-I, I just don't. I lose all logic when it comes to you and my heart tends to take complete control and I have no idea what I'M doing, what WE'RE doing." Lauren's lips pulled to her eyes.
-She said HEART.-
"And you make me nervous and jealous. I HATE being jealous, it's NOT me! I don't do that! But apparently with YOU, I DO do that!" She continued to blurt out, hands gesturing every emotion. "And..." Her voice softened as she wrapped her arms around her own body.
Lauren walked the few steps to close the gab between them, pulling her into an embrace as she looked into vulnerable brown eyes. For a second, Lauren was positive that her heart just skipped a beat.
"And what?" Her voice just as soft.
"...you scare me." She buried her face into Lauren's shoulder.
-the way you make me FEEL! It scares the SHIT out if me.-
"I just, i-i just, I can't even deal." She took a step back, shaking her head.
She finally looked up, her walls quickly building it's way back up. "I can't do this Lauren, all these girls always wanting you, just like the club and just like today at the Greek Square," she shook her head as if to say no, walls completely up.
-I ONLY WANT YOU, just YOU.-
"So what if they want me, it doesn't mean I want them. I only want YOU." The green eyed girl stated with conviction, closing their distance, cupping her face, locking with brown eyes, "I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I want to be that for you. Why would I want anyone else when I have the BEST in front of me." Sincerity filling her voice.
-Oh Gosh, those green eyes and what she's saying, shake it off Camila, shake it off. PULL IT TOGETHER.-
She turned her head out of Lauren's hand as she stepped towards the door. "Prove it." And she walked out, closing the door behind her.
-PROVE IT.-
~They try to get at me (They try to get at me)
Behind your back (your back, your back)
Tryin' to tell me that I'm just like the others
But I ain't all bad
No, no, I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I ain't all bad
All bad, all bad
I might make you mad, so mad
My bad, no, I ain't all bad~
