When I woke up the next morning, Camila and I had to part ways. She had promised to take care of Ethan while Normani worked, and I would help Dinah pick out a dress for that night. Her boyfriend had invited her to dinner.

I said goodbye to Camila with six kisses, to which she responded with only one, her favorite number of the day.

I felt a little strange, because lately Camila chose high numbers. That day, however, she didn't seem to want too much.

"Will I see you tonight?" I asked through the window.

She had almost entered the building when I decided to talk, so I wouldn't have been surprised if she didn't answer me. The distance was long.

Yet she did it.

"I think so," she said.

And a smile was drawn on my face before I told her I loved her six times. She also smiled before I said the same thing.

An hour later Dinah was in the fitting rooms. We had arrived on time because she demanded to drive, a proposal to which I couldn't refuse. I wanted to go home as soon as possible that day.

"How was your birthday?" Dinah questioned me as a second dress was thrown into my arms. It had orange touches, so I had ruled it out when I saw her with it. "I'm sure it was crazy and all, but I need details."

"Camz decided to take me handcuffed to an amusement park. It was amazing, she even won a bear for me."

My best friend laughed when she heard me.

"I'm not even trying to understand you. It's impossible."

"There's nothing to understand, Dinah. It's love."

"Whatever you say..."

Shortly after she came out of the dressing rooms. The dress was red, and she looked amazing, but I didn't tell her. Actually, I asked her to wait to see the others, because my mind wasn't going to feel good until she tried six.

"And how about sex? I want to believe that the craziness of both also comes to the bedroom, because otherwise this wouldn't make sense."

"It was amazing, Dinah. Very, very, very, very, very, very incredible." I stated, and if she'd been next to me, She would've seen the heat rising to my cheeks. "Do you remember when...?"

"Okay. Enough. I don't want details, Lauren."

She came out of the dressing room again, this time wearing a blue dress that accentuated her curves. Again, I didn't tell her how amazing she looked.

"Can you see my phone, Lauren? I think I heard it."

I nodded three times, though she couldn't see me. I unlocked her phone using the key that never changed: five, six, five, six; I searched through the messages, and I realized she wasn't wrong.

There were just two unread messages. One was from her boyfriend, who said incredibly cheesy things she would swear to have read on the internet. The next one was from Normani's phone, but it was Camila who wrote it.

"Why does she always write to me? Doesn't she know you have one too?"

I rolled my eyes.

"Of course she does, but she knows I don't take it out of the house. I distract myself by using it because I must open all applications twice before doing anything."
