Blinded. (Sequel to invisible) A Fifth Harmony fanfiction.

Chapter 17

Things after that became pretty crazy.

Lauren and Camila confirmed their relationship via Twitter and Instagram by sending out a cute pic of them asleep and cuddling Charlotte that Dinah had taken a while ago, with the caption: Camren family!☺️😘💗💋

The girls were quickly demanded for various interviews and such after that, and they had very little time to focus on Charlotte, but they did their best and Charlotte could see that now. She realised that she had missed Lauren and the girls more than she let on, and really just being in the same room as them made her feel so much more safer and happier, even with her newest battle with PTSD, which was really taking its toll.

It had been a week since she got back, and every day of the week so far had consisted of violent flashbacks and nightmares revolving around her past. Lauren and Camila were always by her side though whenever she came to or woke up, she always come around again and would be looking Into either Lauren's green orbs or Camila's soft brown ones and each time their arms were ready to catch her as she broke down. She was exhausted, God was she exhausted, and she knew that the only way was to sleep beside someone, whether it be one of the girls or Ivy. But Charlotte was stubborn and knew that she had to deal with these things on her own so she slept alone and was now running on 2 hours sleep.

Always fun.

Lauren smiled sadly when she walked into Charlotte's room with Camila at her heels holding her hand tightly. Charlotte was laying on her bed with a guitar sat firmly in her lap that Taylor (Swift) had given her for her fourteenth birthday. The two were rather close and had doodled on the thing until their was very little empty space on it. Lauren smiled, with her face hidden by the Guitar neck Charlotte looked like a young Camila since her hair was getting lighter. It made Lauren's heart flutter that maybe one day there could be a little Camila running around one day.

Camila squeezed Lauren's hand and slid past her to shake Charlotte awake, making the younger girl jolt forward and hit her head on her guitar neck.

"Ow, fuck!" Charlotte hissed angrily as she rubbed the small bump on her head. Camila frowned, "Sorry baby girl, I didn't know you were going to jolt forward." Camila apologised. Charlotte shrugged. "Whatever, it's fine." She hissed harshly, making Camila back away slightly in sadness. "Sorry," Charlotte grumbled, knowing that she hurt by snapping at Camila like that.

Camila waved her off and forced a smile. Charlotte had been off with her since she and Lauren came out and it was starting to get to her. Every time Camila would walk into a room Charlotte would leave and barely speak to her. It hurt.

"What do you guys want?" Charlotte sighed as she rubbed the bump on her head gently. "We were just coming in to sat goodnight," Lauren explained. Charlotte nodded. Even though she wanted to learn how to cope with her Nightmares and flashbacks on her own, another reason as to why she didn't go crawling into Lauren's room after she had one was because she didn't want to disturb the couple in a bad time.

Charlotte nodded, "Well, Goodnight." She said a little coldly before getting off of her bed and going into her bathroom, slamming the door loudly behind her.

"She hates me..." Camila sighed sadly as she looked at the shut bathroom door. Lauren shook her head and walked over to Camila to wrap her arms around Camila's waist. "No she doesn't," she replied, "she's being like this to everyone. You know she loves you."

Charlotte was listening to the conversation with tears brimming in her eyes. The only reason she ever left the room was the same reason why she didn't go crying to Lauren, she wanted to give them space and be a couple, not because she hated Camila. Camila was like her second Mom, no way could she hate her.
