Dawn in Vancouver

Chapter 23: "Impossible to Forget"

"If I could ask life for the perfect moment it would be that. The moment of riding through the vast meadows as the sun set overhead welcoming a new day. It was the moment when I would turn and beside me was that rider I silently adored. Pierre would accompany me on my morning rides. Always taciturn and serious, polite and kind. He was the perfect man. The man I was slowly beginning to love. A silent love."

"Dawn in Vancouver" written by Camila Cabello.

The clock was ticking as the two women continued with their bodies entwined and sated. Lauren's fingers slowly stroked Camila's hair who remained with her face buried in her neck and placed soft kisses on it. Lauren's hand moved down Camila's back stroking her nails slowly up and down her back and heard her laugh softly.

"I really like your laugh" - Lauren whispered and felt Camila's lips slowly kiss her cheek. Wet and tender kisses.

"It's impossible not to laugh," Camila said huskily, moving in Lauren's arms. "It's impossible not to when I've just had the best night of my life."

Lauren slowly moved to be on Camila's level. Their eyes met and Lauren lost herself in those beautiful brown eyes that looked at her with the utmost tenderness.

"Did you like it? I want you to be completely honest with me," Lauren whispered, caressing her cheek.

"I loved it," Camila said with deep gentleness, leaning closer to Lauren until she brushed her nose against hers. "I wouldn't change a single thing about what we just experienced, Lauren. It was magical and wonderful."

"From the first time I saw you," Lauren's voice was soft and tender, making Camila's senses melt again at her gentle caress on her cheek, "I noticed you as a woman," Lauren sighed. "I knew you were the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my life."

"If I'm completely honest, I never thought I could ever feel something like this," Camila said. "Much less with a woman."

"You've never noticed a woman before?" -Lauren asked as they intertwined their still naked legs and looked into each other's eyes.

"I had noticed some beautiful women," she said, lining Lauren's eyebrows with her index finger with deep gentleness. "I could tell they were pretty, but I'd never had sexual thoughts about any of them before."

"What's different with me?" -Lauren said softly and Camila simply remained silent, not knowing how to answer that question. "Is it because I've been with women before?"

"You have something that just captivated me from the first moment," Camila was silent for a few minutes, "Have you ever had a relationship with another woman?" -Camila whispered without knowing why, feeling totally uncomfortable with the subject. She saw Lauren's eyes droop for a moment, and then her lips pulled into a sad smile.

"My past is not easy," Lauren sighed. "I've had a very hard life in some ways. And my past with women is one of those hard times. I realized very young that I had a preference for women, but I never told anyone, not even my mother" -Camila settled in listening to her-"You and Mani are the only two people in the world who know. You're the first person who knows about me."

"Mani?" -Camila whispered. Lauren settled in and Camila wrapped her arms around her, not wanting to leave her soft, comfortable body one bit. Camila's head was right on Lauren's neck like minutes before and she began to gently stroke her hair.

"Normani," Lauren said. "She's one of my backup singers and best friend. The very pretty brunette."

"Of course..." Camila said softly. "I remember her from when I went to see you in concert. She's very pretty."
