Café Del Sol

Chapter 3

Lauren's POV

Its been a week since I last saw the brown eyed goddess and since then I've been- how can I put it- craving to see her, feel her presence, watch her smile and to talk with her. It seems that I'm a creepy damn stalker but I'm not! I just feel like it okay? And I can't fucking help it.

The way she gave me butterflies on my stomach, the way my hands sweat because of nervousness around her, the way my heart pound crazily with her, the way my eyes not leaving her like she hypnotize me, the way the spark flew through me whenever I touch her, and the way she make me stutter and blush because of embarrassment is something I'm really new with.

Something that I haven't felt before. I admit I haven't been in a proper relationship before besides the hook ups and friends with benifits. I've never felt sparks, butterflies- Hell I haven't even blush before or even stutter while talking.

And this unknown feelings she's giving me? Is way too hard to get used to. I'm the person who talks with confidence and dominance was always overflowing through my aura but with her?! Why can't I use that to her?!

Why does my mind is always malfunctioning when I'm with her?!

So for my plan now; I'm distancing myself far far away from her. I'm not gonna let myself fall for her neither I'm gonna let this feelings for her grow more. I can't let myself to be a fool of love like everyone else.

She's the cause and cure, but if it means to fall deeper just to have that cure. Imma go away from her!

"Prevention is better than cure, right? I hope it is." I murmured frowning at my reflection through the glass window.

Cuz this prevention would be all useless if it isn't.

I sigh for what like umpteenth time this day, shoving my hands in my blazers pocket. My lips tugs a small smile as i felt Camila's handkerchief buried in there. I admit it hurts a little not see her and it so hard to fight the urge to run towards their Café just to stare at her all day.

I stare at my reflected self on the glass window formally but sternly glaring directly at my eyes.

You don't have time for love, love is distraction and too unrealistic for you.

I said loud and clear in my mind keeping it burned there for I don't know how long. I sigh yet again as the door of my office opens without someone knocking first. And that means only one person, its Normani.

"Well aren't you looking like a crap again? Girl, distancing yourself from her won't flew your feelings out of the window, it will just grow." she said in amusement, I turn to her keeping my poker face. "Did you know? Wanting someone won't kill you, and maybe, just maybe your mood won't be this cold if you let it out." She smiles genuinely.

As if!

I scoff as she sat on the chair across mine. I sat down on my chair, sighing softly while my hand is gripping at Camila's handkerchief. It seems like I'm too attached to it right now. I can't even let it stay on my condo.

I turn to Normani as she text on someone while a smug smirk was plastered on her lips. I narrow my eyes as she looks up at me.

"Why are you here? I know you didn't just came here to nagged me about Camila." I ask calmly raising my eyebrow. She shrugged.

"I just want to see your crap of a face. And to tell you that Ally calls someone to bring you a coffee. Guess who that is." She said innocently but I have a gut that saying she's planning something.

"I swear Normani is it's Ca-"

I was cut off by a knock on the door, Normani start smirking smugly while my heart pound thinking Camila was behind that door.
