Meant To Be, Please Don't Go

Chapter 5

Lauren's POV
I'm done. I'm done trying to find a solution to this problem which isn't even mine it's hers and she doesn't care. If she cared she would've sent Austin home and tried her hardest to make me stay. The whole way to the airport I couldn't stop crying even after realizing how awkward I was making my cab driver feel. I checked in and waited for my flight - in 45 minutes I'll be with people who love me unconditionally and without a doubt. Dinah has been texting me nonstop since the moment I stepped out our dressing room basically begging me to stay. She's amazing. Not many realize we have a very close bond and she's always making sure I'm ok. I decided to just turn off my phone and wait. The clock seemed to be even slower than it is. I tried so hard to think of other things but I can't stop thinking about their stupid date. Is she already out with him? Is he holding her hand? Are they somewhere romantic? Is she thinking about me too?

Camila's POV
"You can't just leave. This is what you caused now you have to deal with it, with him!" Dinah said to me which so much anger. I really messed up. She never speaks to me this way but I understand her, she's frustrated. I pace back and forth for about 5 minutes and just open the door.
"Austin I'm SO sorry. I know you've been waiting for like forever but something came up and Lauren is actually leaving and we need to go stop her. Can we just do this some other time? Please, I'm sorry." I flashed a sympathetic smile towards the cute boy in front of me, afraid of his response.
"Oh no it's cool. The girls come first I get it. You better get going!" He hugs me and heads out. I run to my phone and try calling Lauren but her phone is off. I grab my sweater and bag,
"Look I know I screwed up but it would mean a lot if you guys would come with me to try to get her back" I didn't make eye contact while pleading to the girls to be there for me like they always are. They didn't hesitate and immediately got up and started heading out. Normani was driving as fast as she could. The whole way there I was just praying Lauren's flight got delayed or something came up. I don't want her to leave without at least knowing how sorry I am. As soon as I see the airport I don't even wait for Normani to make a complete stop and run out the car to the airport.
"Mila! MILA WAIT!" I hear the girls yell behind me but I keep going.
As soon as I go inside I check the boarding screens. Flight 3748 to Miami -- NOW BOARDING?! I run to the boarding gate passed the metal detectors and now security is running after me but I don't care. As soon as I reached the gate, the plane takes off. I lost her, she actually left me here..alone.

Lauren's POV
-3 days later-
It feels amazing to be surrounded by people who genuinely love you and care for you. I've been keeping away from social media and just my phone in general. Ally called my mom yesterday to express how worried she was since her numerous attempts to contact me have failed. I honestly feel like a dick for abandoning the other girls the way I did but my mental health comes first. Camila was driving me INSANE. I can't lie though, I haven't stopped thinking about her even if she's thousands and thousands of miles away. I didn't tell my parents why I was really upset, I lied and said I was just feeling pressured and home sick. I did tell Taylor my younger sister.
"The whole world is blind if they do not realize how much in love Camila is with you. Maybe she just made a simple mistake Laur, forgive her." Taylor whispered.
"A mistake? A mistake is forgetting to bring your water bottle to dance rehearsal... She said she liked him, there's obviously something in him that she doesn't see in me."
"Well according to Twitter, she's very down. She's probably depressed since she texted you 10 times since you've been home" Taylor's eyes widened as soon as she realized the last few words she blurted out.
"Wait.. You've checked my phone!?!?! Taylor I told you not to check my things or turn that damn device on!" I yelled, forgetting everyone else was sound asleep.
"Lauren shut up and here, check your texts." Taylor said while throwing my phone at me. I grabbed and was shocked by how many text messages the girls have sent me... Especially her.
