The Secrets We Keep (CAMREN)

Chapter 23: Little Sofi

Chris' POV

I knew Camila was leaving around 6 with her family, so I made sure to come and see her before she left. It was 4:15 right now, so I could probably stay till they left and call Lauren to give me a ride back home.

Right now I was outside of her house with flowers, a huge teddy bear, and chocolates. The perfect things to say I'm going to miss you while you're gone. These past two weeks have been hard for me. I know I only have 4 more weeks left to tell Camila about what happened at Keaton's after she left, but I'm also trying to get her to forgive me for being a drunken idiot. So far nothing was working and I was getting desperate. When she opened the door I gave her a huge smile but it seems that she isn't happy to see me.

"Chris what are you doing here? I told you I am packing" she says but I leave my smile on my face in hopes that she will smile back

"I thought I could help out. You know maybe you need someone to help you choose your bikinis or other clothes plus I want to spend time with you before you leave" I say with puppy eyes. She loves those.

"Chris my parents aren't home and you know how they get when you are here and they aren't. I suggest you go home" she says but I really don't want to.

"Come on baby please just for a while I came all the way over her just to see you and to give you these" I tell her showing her the teddy bear, flowers and chocolate.

"Chris no. I can't let you in. Sofi is almost home and I have to finish getting my things ready, then I have to help her and finally I have to make us something to eat before we leave. You can't just show up at my door and expect me to drop everything I'm doing and have to do to spend time with you. Now please go home. I'll call you later" She says and I deflate

"I can help you know" I tell her with a sad smile

"No you can't Christopher now GO HOME and take all this crap with you I don't want it" She says then slams the door in my face.

She's never going to forgive me for what happened. How the hell am I going to tell her about the cheating? I think to myself as I start to make my way home.

Camila's POV

God he is becoming an annoying fucking tick that just won't stop. Maybe I should listen to Lauren and just breakup with him, no I'll give him a few more days to fess up and if he doesn't then I'm cutting him off.

As I'm about to go back up to my room, I hear a school bus honk and I know what that means, Sofi's home. I open the house door once again and running up the lawn was my baby sister.

"Mila, Mila look what I made at school today" She yells holding up a drawing and running into the house

"Let me see boo" I say smiling and taking the drawing out of her hand then closing the door.

"So do you like it?" She asks jumping up and down

"Uh- Sofi what is it?" I ask confused because all I see is a red blob and two stick figures holding hands and smiling

"Oh- well you see the red thingy in the middle, that's a heart, and you see the two stick people at the bottom?" She asks and I nod "That's you and Lolo" she says smiling wide and I blush

"What do you mean, me and Lolo?" I ask her a bit worried

"Well remember on Tuesday when mami y papi went out for dinner and you and Lolo were watching me? I kind of didn't go to sleep when you told me to and I was going to tell you I wasn't tired but when I was going to walk into your room I saw Lolo kissing you. And two people only kiss when they love each other, like mami and papi do" She says innocently and I look at her with wide eyes

My little sister, Sofia Cabello, saw me and Lauren in my room when we thought she was sleeping. This can't be happening, oh my god, this isn't happening.

"Sofi, ha-have you told anyone about what you saw?" I ask her worried that she might have said something.

"No" She says as she nods her head and I let out a breath

"Ok, Sofi you have to listen to me ok. You cannot tell anyone about what you saw. Not even mami or papi deal?" I ask taking out my pinky

"Deal but Mila is Lauren coming to say goodbye before we leave?" She asks with sad eyes while taking my pinky in hers.

I completely forgot that Lauren asked me to not tell Sofi that she was coming with us so that Sofi would be surprised, and as I'm about to answer her I'm interrupted.

"Is that a little Sofa Monster I hear asking about me?" I hear Lauren say and I smile because Lauren always knows how to make my baby sister laugh and smile.

"LOLO!" Sofi yells and starts to run at the stairs

'This weekend should be interesting with these two together' I think to myself

"Sofa Monster! I've missed you little princess" Lauren says picking Sofi up in her arms and walking down the steps.

"You saw me on Tuesday Lolo, but I missed you too. Are you going to come with us?" Sofi asks with big hopeful eyes and I smirk and hold in a giggle

"Well I don't know you'll have to ask your big sister" Lauren says smiling at me with a wink and I laugh

"Mila is Lauren coming too?" Sofi asks giving me a smile and I laugh even more

"Yes Sofi Lauren is coming with us to the beach" I answer her and Sofi takes Lauren into a big hug and I must admit I'm getting jealous of my little sister

"Yeah Lolo is coming with us" Sofi says shouting and Lauren and I laugh because Sofi is being too cute at the moment.

"Hey sofia monster, how about you go up to your room and pick out the toys you want to bring with you to the beach, I'll be right up I just need to talk to Camila for a moment" Lauren says putting Sofi down on the floor, and I know what she wants to talk about.

"Ok Lolo but promise me no kissing" Sofi says with a serious face and Lauren laughs but agrees

"Sure thing little princess"

Lauren's POV

As I watched Sofi go up the stairs I hold in another laugh and just smile. It was no denying that Sofia and Camila were sisters they were so much alike in the way they acted and how they looked. When I hear Sofi's room door close I turn to Camila and see that she now has a semi serious face and I can only guess that it's because of what Sofi told her when she got home.

"Don't worry, Sofi knows how to keep a secret" I tell her and she looks at me

"Lauren she's only 5 and she saw us practically making out in my room on my bed" she says worried

"Camz trust me Sofi is a sealed tomb. She won't say a word. Now can you tell me what the annoying brat wanted?" I ask her referring to my brother

"He wanted to come in and spend time with me before we left" She says and I nod trying to not flip out. "I told him to leave but he kept insisting until I told him I didn't want him here" she finishes

"So you kicked him out?" I ask walking closer to her

"More like slammed the door in his face and refused the flowers, teddy bear and chocolates" She answers and I smile. Camz never turns down chocolates unless she really doesn't like you.

"So if I got you those things will you turn me down?" I ask as I take her hand in mine

"I don't know" she says smiling and biting her bottom lip

"How about if I" and as I'm about to lean in and kiss her she pulls away

"You told Sofi no kissing Lolo, sorry" she says winking at me and walking up the stairs to her room.

"SO NOT FAIR CAMZ!" I yell from downstairs and smiling.

Oh yeah this weekend should be fun with little Sofi and Camila's parents.
