Camila got her keys out if her pocket and unlocked the door to her and her girlfriend's apartment. She walked inside, closed and locked the door, and threw her keys on the kitchen table.

"Lauren! I'm home baby!" She called out. Camila got no response, so she starred to look for her girlfriend.

Camila ran upstairs and walked into the two girls' bedroom. Camila watched as Lauren walked out of their bathroom, sniffling, with a tear-stained face. When Lauren noticed Camila standing in the door way, watching her with a sad expression, she opened her mouth to say something. She tried to speak, she really did, but nothing came out. All that was heard was a tiny sob that managed to break through her lips.

"Lauren? You alright babe?" Camila cautiously asked, walking over to her girlfriend and slowly wrapping her arms around her body. Lauren melted into her hug and completely fell apart. She let Camila's strong arms hold her and protect her from the truth. She knew Camila would be pissed when she told her, but she didn't want to ruin their little moment, so she continued to sob into her girlfriend's neck.

Lauren took a shaky breath in to try and contain herself, but it came back out in a shaky sob.

"What's wrong baby girl?" Camila sweetly whispered in Lauren's ear as she stroked her hair and kissed her her.

Lauren planted a little kiss to Camila's neck and pulled back. She kept her arms loosely around Camila's neck and stared into her deep, chocolate brown eyes. Camila stared into Lauren's shiny, hypnotizing, emerald green eyes with a caring look on her face.

"I think you should sit down." Lauren whispered.

Camila sat on the bed and held Lauren's hands in her own. "Are you hurt or sick? You're scaring me?" Camila worriedly asked.

"I'm scaring me too." She whispered, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Did you relapse?" Camila whispered. She jumped to her feet and quickly pulled the sleeves of Lauren's big, baggy, sweatshirt up. She looked at Lauren's wrists and only saw the old, faded scars from at least four months ago. She breathed out in relief and sadly smiled at Lauren. She kissed her cheek and rubbed the backs of Lauren's hands with her thumbs. "Thank God." Camila whispered. Camila sat back down, on the edge of the bed, and held Lauren's hands in her own again.

Lauren took a shaky breath in and closed her eyes. "You know how I'm on the pill?" Camila nodded. "Well, about two months ago, I forgot to take it." Lauren quietly said, in a shaky voice.

Camila stared at Lauren with a confused expression on her face. "Okay....?" She trailed off, wanting Lauren to explain a little more.

"Camz, we didn't use a condom either." Lauren whispered.

Camila's eyes widened. "Oh no, you're not.... y-you're..... you can't be." Camila stuttered.

Lauren let out a sob and nodded. Camila jumped off of the bed and ran into the bathroom. Lauren sat where Camila was sitting just seconds ago and held her face in her hands, quietly crying. Camila quickly walked out of the bathroom and stood I front of Lauren. Lauren slowly looked up and stared at Camila, eyes full of rage. She was handing Lauren a bottle of water and an orange bottle of pills.

"Camz, it's too late. I can't take these now." Lauren sadly said to her girlfriend.

"Why not?" Camila asked more harsher than she meant to, making Lauren flinch.

"It could damage the baby. It's already two months old." Lauren explained. She was amazed, she had just admitted to having a little life growing inside of her.

"I don't care Lauren! Take the fucking pills! All of them!" Camila yelled.

"It's dangerous Camila! How fucking stupid are you?" Lauren yelled back with a slightly, shaky voice.
