Saving You

Chapter 3

Camila's POV

This is all so weird, ya know? I've been staying at Lauren's from two weeks now. I met someone who cares about me so much, who literally does anything to make me happy, who's provided me with a place to live. We haven't really made things official yet but I know that I belong to her because she makes it pretty clear on a daily basis. We are getting to know each other better but I know that there's a lot she's not telling me. I know that she's 22 years old, owns her own enterprise, has a best friend named Dinah who is also her assistant and she comes over frequently and we actually get along very well, I know that she has a brother and a sister. She always shuts down when we start talking about her family so there has to be something there. I know that she bites her lip when she's either frustrated or thinking. She loves to play with my fingers, no matter what she's doing. If we are watching a movie, driving, or even if she's reading she'll pick up my hand and play with my fingers. I think the habit is rather adorable. It's just all so weird and surreal. I sometimes don't even believe that it's real.

"What are you doing?" I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard her enter the room.

"Nothing, just texting Ally."

"Who is Ally?"

"A friend from back home."

"How did you get her number?"

"I logged into my Facebook account and gave her my number."

"Oh."

And with that she walked out of the door and slammed it a little too hard. That was incredibly weird. Was she mad? I don't think I really did anything wrong?

I slowly got up and walked into her bedroom to find her sitting on the edge of the bed with her hands in her head.

"Did I do something wrong?" I whispered.

"Who is Ally?"

"I told you, she's a friend from back home. My best friend, actually. My only friend I had in high school."

"Why didn't you tell me about her?"

"I haven't seen you today, you were at work. We just started talking today."

"Is she pretty?" She whispered and I knew then what this was all about.

"Lo.." I walked over to her and bent down on my knees so I was in front of her and pushed open her legs so I was in between them. I took ahold of her cheeks and softly caressed them.

"I only want you, Lauren."

With that I kissed her forehead, nose, and then lips.

"Okay?"

She nodded her head and grabbed me and pulled me down on top of her. She held me close and tight and I started to caress her collarbone. She picked up and hand and started to play with my fingers.

"Camz?"

I smiled at my nickname from her.

"Yes?"

"Will you go out on a date with me, tonight? I know I've taken you out to dinner but I want tonight to be special. I want us to dress up and I want you to be treated like the princess that you are."

My heart was beating so fast at this point I didn't think I was going to be able to form a sentence.

"You already treat me like a princess."

I lifted my head up and kissed those soft lips.

"But yes, I will go on a date with you."

"That's what I like to hear. 8 o'clock we will leave. You can have my bedroom, I'll get ready in a spare bedroom so we don't see each other."
