~Open up to me, it's all you gotta do
Give me all your heart, swap it mine out with you
Swap it out with you
Swap it out with you
Come into my world
I gave my world to you
We can swap swap swap it out
I can show you what I'm talking about
Be obliged just to show you how
Follow my lead, that's what you oughta do
No pressure
Swapping mine ain't ever been a crime
If it was then I'd do the time
Throw away the keys as long as I'm here with you
Forever~
Camila's P.O.V.
The bell had rung and the halls suddenly cleared of bodies, great, I'm late again. I thought to myself gradually shutting my locker door.
I could feel a body slightly up against my back, "hi CAAMMMZZ," her soft, raspy voice flooded my ears; I could feel the warmth of her breathe, her lips almost on my ear.
I took a deep breath and swallowed before turning around, her sparkling green eyes locking with mine. "Good Morning." I smiled, holding my books tightly to my chest.
She took one step forward, causing me to take a step back, my back against the my locker.
My blood was pumping triple time! I could feel my heart's rhythm increase at a rapid pace, her intense green eyes made me weak in the knees; I was immobile.
I watched her bite her plump bottom lip, scanning me over, her eyes staring at my bow, "have I ever told you that your red bow is my favorite?" She let out placing a hand against the locking behind me; my nervous eyes looking at her arm that made its way past my head on the locker, then back to her eyes.
OH GOSH.
I could feel the heat rush through my body; I just shook my head to say 'NO'. It's early, I can't think let alone with this porcelain skin beauty right in front of me.
"Well," her voice husky as her eyes looked at my lips, "it's my favorite."
Her eyes drifted back to mine, and then back down to my lips that I was biting at the moment, as she slowly leaned in.
My heart began to race as her lips moved closer to mine…
~Eye for an eye
I'm the one that told you
Wipe your pretty eyes, dry 'em on my shoulder
You ain't gotta try, try to get closer
Fifty-fifty here, let's make it, devise it
Simulate the love
Try it 'for you knock it
You ain't gotta rush
But you ain't gotta stop it
Open up to me, it's all you gotta do
Give me all your heart, swap it mine out with you
Swap it out with you
Swap it out with you
Come into my world
I gave my world to you
We can swap swap swap it out~
~BEEP-BEEP-BEEP~
NOOOOOOOOO! I was having suuuuccchhhh a good dream…LAUREN. SON OF A BITCH! Stupid alarm.
I groaned at the noise invading my ears, abruptly waking me from my dreams…SUCH A SWEET DREAM, GRRRR! I slowly opened my eyelids to the sun's rays beaming through my window.
I rolled on my back and sighed. We ALMOST kissed yesterday. I couldn't help but brush my finger to trace my lips. I grumbled at the thought-ALMOST…DAMN YOU NURSE! I threw my pillow on my face.
~BEEP-BEEP-BEEP~
645am already? Ugh! Come on Camila; get up! You need get ready, GET UP!
I must've snoozed for another 10 minutes or so, just thinking about the last 48 hours before heading to the bathroom.
This is INSANE! What am I DOING? In six months I'm out of here! I can't go having FEELINGS…let alone feelings for the one person that actually MATTERS to me. I need to just STOP! Flirting back…Opening THAT door. I shook my head; staring at myself in the mirror, SHAKE IT OFF! Six months! You're out of here in six months!
I walked to my closet as I brushed my teeth, going through my clothes. WHAT TO WEAR, what to wear…hmmm. I grabbed my red skinny jeans, plain black tee, black high-heeled boots…this outfit is almost complete, ALMOST.
I walked over to my dresser, toothbrush still in my mouth…I picked up my red bow-PERFECT.
RED HAIR BOW HUH?
Shut it brain! Shut it! What? It goes with my outfit!
SO IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT DREAM YOU JUST HAD…AND THE GREEN-EYED GIRL?
NOOOOO! I said SHUT IT!...I HATE you sometimes. I'm still wearing the Red Bow.
~Oh swappin' out will only change your life
It's worried 'bout the sacrifice
After all what do we have to lose
Nothing
Don't separate our destiny
By separating you from me
These are the terms
That we're made for each other
Eye for an eye
I'm the one that told you
Wipe your pretty eyes, dry 'em on my shoulder
You ain't gotta try, try to get closer
Fifty-fifty here, let's make it, devise it
Simulate the love
Try it 'for you knock it
You ain't gotta rush
But you ain't gotta stop it~
~RIIIINNNNGGGG~
Oh thank goodness! This day has dragged on for tooooo long! I gather my books off my desk and headed for the parking lot. I was a little sad; I haven't seen Lauren all day and she promised she'd find me today. It's fine, I mean I've been busy with committee business and I'm sure she's been busy with lacrosse stuff.
YOU DON'T NEED ANYTING DISTRACTING YOU. NOT SEEING LAUREN IS PROBABLY A GOOD THING.
At least that's what my brain is saying. My heart on the other hand is pissed that she didn't SEE my outfit.
YOU'RE SUCH A GIRL! I look really good…someone should appreciate this outfit, I'm just saying!
I shook my head, breaking my thoughts as I approached my car.
~BUZZ-BUZZ-BUZZ~
Frm Beautiful Eyes3: where are you beautiful? Did you leave already?
I could feel my lips pull to my eyes.
To Beautiful Eyes3: parking lot in the back :)
~BUZZ-BUZZ-BUZZ~
Frm Beautiful Eyes3: on my way.
To Beautiful Eyes3: k
I threw my stuff in my car, shutting the door, my eyes narrowing on the older brunette approaching me, one hand behind her back and a smile plastered across her face. She's absolutely beautiful.
"Thanks for waiting," she let out softly, leaning in to kiss my cheek.
Whoa…"Yeah, of course. How's your lip?"
"It's better," she chuckled perking up an eyebrow, "I got you something." She pulled her hand from behind her back that was holding a rose, long stemmed, no thorns, and the color yellow with a red tip.
I'm smiling from ear to ear as she handed it to me. "Lauren, it's gorgeous, thank you." My brown eyes meeting her gaze as she shimmied back and forth.
"I wanted to know if you wanted to go to Formal with me?" she asked, before biting her bottom lip.
YES, of course YES! I could feel my heart race and a million thoughts run through my mind. Is this REALLY a good idea? You're leaving in six months and this could change EVERYTHING between you two.
"Camz, can you say something, you're making me nervous." She smiled, dipping her head to catch my gaze.
"Sorry," I chuckled shaking my head. Why am I FREAKING OUT! "I umm, I…can I think about it?"
She took a step back, CRAP! "Seriously?" she was hurt. "What do you need to think about? You either want to go with me or you don't." she shook her head.
"No, it's not that, it's just, Lo, I'm leaving for college in six months and-"
"What does that have to do with anything? What does that have to do with right now?"
"I'm just not sure if THIS is such a good idea with only six months left of school and both of us leaving for college, it could really screw things up between us. I mean what if you get bored with me," I think I just pissed her off, "I mean you're YOU and I've seen you be with a A LOT of girls," yup, she's pissed, her face says PISSED! "I just don't want to ruin what we have."
She let out a puff of air, visibly upset, "I know you feel it too." She said with no doubt in her tone.
SHE WAS RIGHT.
~Open up to me, it's all you gotta do
Give me all your heart, swap it mine out with you
Swap it out with you
Swap it out with you
Come into my world
I gave my world to you
We can swap swap swap it out
Don't be afraid darling
I got your back baby
Oh you don't gotta worry, no
You gotta know that baby
Open up to me~
"You know Camz, I may have messed around with a lot of girls and live in the moment," she paused, shaking her head, her glossy green eyes penetrating through me, "but I've never walked away from the possibility of love. You…you're walking away because you're scared."
AGAIN, SHE'S RIGHT. What am I so afraid of?
She grabbed my hands, "Open up to me, that's all you gotta do." Her face softening as I felt a tear fall down my face, her words hitting me hard. "It's different with you Camz, I mean, what do we really have to lose?" she wiped my tear with her thumb as she grabbed my hand with her other hand, intertwining our fingers. "We don't have to rush into anything," she kissed my hand, "but don't go killing something that could be great." Her lips pulled to her shimmering green eyes, "look, if you have to think about it, think about it, that's all I ask okay?" she dipped her head.
"Okay," I whispered, my heart swelling from her words as I flashed her a smile, how could I not…she's amazing.
"Okay." She smiled as she leaned in, pausing for a split second before kissing the corner of my mouth.
I took a deep breath as I watched her disappear.
