Drunk Hearts Scream Sober Thoughts (Camren)

Drunk Hearts Scream Sober Thoughts - 1

"C'mon Camz, one party. I'm asking you to go to one party with your best friend."

Camila didn't really want to respond to the pouting green-eyed beauty. She doesn't like partying and she would much rather be curled up on her bed with a book rather than being in a crowded room with smelly hormonal teenagers getting drunk off their asses.

"But Lauren you know how I hate those things. I'm pretty sure you'll have fun without me."

"It will be different if you're there Camz. Please just this one time, I swear I won't even leave your side."

Lauren took hold of Camila's hand while staring at the younger girl's eyes. Right then and there Camila knew she was sold. Lauren made her heart flutter in ways she couldn't explain. Maybe one day she'll learn to say 'no' to Lauren but that day surely won't be today, tomorrow or anytime soon.

"Okay, as long as you'll stay with me, I'll go with you, wherever."

"Lauren! I'm glad you made it!"

An overly enthusiastic Becky engulfed Lauren in a hug purposely ignoring Camila.

"I wouldn't miss your party for the world Beck. By the way, you know Camila right?"

"Yeah sure sure. Come on I'm gonna introduce you to some of my friends."

Camila was starting to feel left out but she didn't mind. She was used to it. As long as Lauren was having fun, she'll just suck it up.

"Oh it's alright I'll just grab a drink with Camz here, I'll catch u-"

Lauren was about to finish her sentence when Camila interrupted her.

"It's okay Lo, go ahead I'll find something to do."

"Are you sure?"

Lauren said hesitantly because she knew she made a promise to the younger girl.

"Yes I'm sure. Go have fun I'll be fine."

"Okay thanks Camz, don't think twice in calling me if you need anything, alright?"

Camila just nodded and Lauren proceeded to kiss her cheek with a 'bye' that made the younger girl struggle to breathe.

'Get it together Camila, she's your best friend.' Camila thought to herself.

Camila sat down on a sofa next to a couple that was getting hot and heavy publicly.

'Well at least they're having fun.' Camila thought bitterly.

She then looked over to where Lauren was standing who was laughing and meeting new people like the social butterfly she is.

'At least she's having fun.'

"I'm Austin"

That introduction seemed harmless even though Camila recognized this guy as one of Becky's goons. Nonetheless she didn't want to seem rude so she introduced herself back.

"Camila."

Camila said with a smile.

Austin flashed his pearly whites with mischief in his eyes.

-

"Shot! Shot! Shot!"

This was all Camila was hearing while her vision was getting kind of blurry and her inhibition went out the window. After meeting and talking with Austin for a while, the boy convinced Camila that a drinking game was the way to pass time and enjoy the party for a while. Being bored out of her mind, Camila agreed thinking that she can trust this boy she just met.
