Chapter 9:

Camila's POV:

Lauren and I were cuddling on her bed that afternoon, binge watching season one of Dexter. He really is America's favorite serial killer. She got so into the show that she didn't even notice me staring at her for practically the entire time. Her face is just so perfectly sculpted that I couldn't help myself.

"You know you're beautiful right?" I said. Even though only the light in the room was from the tv I could see the faint blush on her face when she turned to face me.

"I don't actually, but you should know that you are beyond beautiful," she smirked. I didn't exactly know what to say so I just kissed her.

I somehow got some confidence, maybe from she had just said, but I deepened the kiss and ran my tongue across her lower lip, I could feel her moan lightly which just spurred me on more. Before I knew it she was pulling me on top of her and her hand slid down to my hips, pushing our bodies together. I moaned when her hand wandered down to my ass and gave it a tight squeeze. Soon our tongues were exploring each other's mouths and fighting for dominance. I felt her pulling at the hem of my shirt and suddenly got really nervous when her hand was sliding up my bare side.

"Wait" I said more anxiously than I intended because I had to catch my breath. She immediately let go of me, put I stayed on top of her.

"I'm sorry," she sounded like she was going to cry and put her hands over her face. "I'm so sorry Camz, I guess I just got ahead of myself."

"No no Laur it's okay. I just.. it's too soon you know? I don't want to do things too quickly."

"I know, I don't either. I was just caught up in the moment. I'm sorry," she pleaded.

"Lauren really it's okay, really. Stop apologizing." I kissed her lips so she'd know that it really was okay.

"We can still do that though, right?"

"Of course, you can kiss me whenever you want to," I winked.

"Oh really? Even in front of the girls?" She asked, I hadn't told her that they had known.

"Actually... They sort of already know."

"What really?" She seemed happy, "When did you tell them?"

"I didn't, apparently they've known for like two weeks that we liked each other. Hell, Dinah knew I liked you before I even did." I said, she laughed.

"Well she is your best friend."

"That's very true." I shivered, did it get colder in here?

"You cold babe?" Lauren asked, I loved it when she called me babe.

"Yeah, a little bit," I said. Within a second of me saying that she was trying to sit up, I moved off of her and just let my legs lay of hers. She pulled off her sweatshirt and pulled it over my head. I couldn't help but to smile at the gesture.

"Thanks," I said as I snuggled up in Laurens oversized sweatshirt. It was still warm from her body having been in it just seconds ago. For some reason that fact was extremely comforting.

"You're the cutest," the other brunette said and gently kissed my cheek, making me scrunch my nose. "You know, I love it when you do that."

"Do what?" I asked, "This?" and scrunched my nose again.

"Yes that!" she poked my nose.

"Well I like it when we snuggle."

"Me too babe." She said, and laid us back down into the position we were in earlier with me head on her chest as we watches Dexter. I really wish these beds were bigger so it could make cuddling easier. Somehow these little moments with Lauren became the moments that I look forward to the most.

Lauren's POV:

It was about seven at night when and we were all in the studio that Dinah got permission to use, about to record our first cover song to post on YouTube.

"So are we all in agreement? This is the song?" Dinah asked us all. We all nodded our heads. "Okay then, let's do this girls!"

The piano started playing softly in the background, I think my giggling got caught on tape, someone's phone vibrated, but then Normani started singing first.

I'm gonna pick up the pieces, and build a lego house

If things go wrong we can knock it down.

Dinah:

My three words have two meanings but there's one thing on my mind

It's all for you

Camila:

And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got you to keep me warm.

If you're broken I will mend ya and keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on, now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love

I'll pick you up when you're getting down

And out of all these things I've done, I think I love you better now

I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind

I'll do it all for you in time

And out of all these things I've done, I think I love you better now, now

Me:

I'm gonna paint you by numbers and colour you in

If things go right we can frame it and put you on a wall

Ally:

And it's so hard to say it but I've been here before

Now I'll surrender up my heart and swap it for yours

Camila:

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love.

I'll pick you up when you're getting down

And out of all these things I've done, I think I love you better now

I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind

I'll do it all for you in time

And out of all these things I've done, I think I love you better now

Between Camila's amazing job on the chorus and all of us making it our own and adding in harmonies, it sounded amazing.

"Guys that was awesome!" Ally cheered. "And only one take to get it right!" We all were smiling and agreed with her.

"Way to go Fifth Harmony! We rock! That shit is gonna blow up on the internet!" Dinah added. "I'm gonna hit post in 3, 2, 1." She counted down and hit send.

"I say we celebrate our amazingness and one take with a pizza!" Camila suggested. We all agreed and since it wasn't too late we went to a Papa Gino's right off campus.
