Catching You

Chapter 10

Camila's P.O.V

It's Saturday, that means we have been at Dinah's house for a full week. Milika told our parents where we were, well she told my mom and Lauren's parents. She was perfectly fine with us staying at their house. The girls are sleeping in Dinah's room. Ally on the beanbags, Nromani and Dinah on the bed and Lauren on the floor where I left her. She's tangled up in the sheets. I am standing in the doorway watching my girlfriend, who is now nineteen. "Camila, I can't sleep with you staring at me," Lauren moans. "Why did you get up?" She turns over and looks at me. "Come lay with me," she pats the spot beside her. "I'm cold." I smile and walk over to where she's laying. "Why did you get up?" She looks me in the eye, I just shrug. "You like watching me sleep, don't you?" I nod. "You creep," she jokes. I smile and kiss her. "I still love you though."

"You what?" I ask shocked.

"Um nothing, I just... I didn-"

"I love you," I cut her off.

"You do?" her face is laced with a shocked expression.

"Yeah I do love you, Lauren....happy birthday," I kiss her again.

"Wait, Camila, this is serious," Lauren backs up a little. "You said you love me." "I do," I reply. "I love you, Lauren." As soon as those three words left my mouth I knew I couldn't tale them back, and I didn't want to because it was true, I did love her.

"Can you shut the fuck up!?" Dinah groans.

"You shut the fuck up!" I spit back.

"Wow someone's grumpy," Dinah laughs. "Happy birthday by the way," Dinah looks at the raven haired girl.

"Thanks," Lauren smiles.

"Dinah stop moving," Normani groans.

"Ugh. Now everyone's up," I grumble.

"What did you expect us to sleep for all day?" Ally asks peaking her head out form the other side of the bed.

"Dinah, yes," I reply.

"You're annoying Walz, you know that, right?" Dinah glares at me.

"I love you too," I laugh.

"Hey," Lauren hits me with a pillow. "I thought you loved me!?"

"I do!" I exclaim, turning to face Lauren. "I do love you."

"Good," she grabs my face. "Because I love you too."

"Why?" Ally groans. "Y'all are so cute!"

"Thank you, Allybear," Lauren smiles kissing me on the lips.

"Ugh," Dinah grumbles rolling her eyes and looks at Mani.

"Listen Norminah," Ally starts. "If you have a problem with Camren you suck it up."

"Why are you involving me in this!?" Normani defends herself. "I'm just so laying here!"

"Stroking my thigh," Dinah adds.

"Shut up," Normani blushes.

"Aw," Ally smiles. "I feel so lonely!"

"Call Troy!" Dinah laughs. Ally glares at her holding back her laughter.

"I"m tired," Normani groans falling back on the bed still griping Dinah's thigh. Dinah turns over and snuggles into Mani's side. Ally gets up and grabs her phone walking into the hallway. I look at Lauren, who looks at me. I smile at her and she grabs the back of my neck pulling me in for a much needed kiss.

"I got you something," I say after we pull away.

"Is it you?" Lauren questions. I shake my head and laugh,
