Magic! (Camren)

Final Chapter

Camila stood in her room, looking at the cards she had pinned to the wall, there was twelve of them now, ace through queen, all of them with cute little messages written on them. Lauren had given her them on their multiple dates they had been on and every damn time she managed to trick Camila.

Camila turned around when there was a light knock on her door and her mom peeked her head in.

"Hey, you ready? Lauren is downstairs, Sofia wouldn't let her go for her to come up herself." The woman explained, looking over Camila's shoulder at the playing cards and smiled. "I like this one, she treats you like you deserve."

"I really like her, too, mom."

"Then go get her."

Camila rolled her eyes, heading downstair and into the front room where Lauren was explaining something to Sofia.

Camila would never get used to the way Lauren's eyes just seemed to come alive when she looked at her, that dumb smile stretching lazily across her lip and the way she just couldn't seem to do anything other than stare at Camila for a few seconds. "Hey,"

"Hey, baby, you're ready?"

"Where are you guys going?"

"I, uh, was thinking about taking her to the b-beach, sir." Lauren stuttered, even after all this time Camila's parents still made her nervous.

"The beach? At this time?" Michael asked and Lauren glanced over at Camila before looking down at her feet.

"Sunset, sir." Lauren muttered bashfully, smiling when she felt Camila squeeze her hand and she heard Camila's mom 'aw'.

"Ok, just have her back by midnight."

"Dad!" Camila huffed but Lauren nodded anyway.

"I will, sir."

"And behave yourself." The man warned making Camila sigh and Lauren nod nervously.

"Yes, sir."

"And look after her."

"With my life, sir." Lauren nodded. She felt like a soldier being interrogated by their superior.

"Dad, stop it."

"I'm just making sure she looks after my little girl. Though, I have no doubts she will."

Lauren smile at that, knowing someone trusted her that much.

"Ok, lets go before he starts again." Camila huffed, glaring over at her dad as she pulled Lauren out the house.

"Your dad still terrifies me."

"You've bet him at cludo." Camila huffed out a chuckle as she leant her head against Lauren's shoulder.

"Still, when he goes all protective dad mode I go all..."

"Soldier mode." Camila grinned.

"Mm."

"It's cute." Camila grinned, tilting her head back and pressing a kiss to Lauren's lips.

"Says you. I feel like an idiot. Your parents must think I'm a complete tool."

"They don't. I do but they don't."

"Charming." Lauren grinned, pushing Camila away from her.

"I was kidding."

"Nuhuh. I'm mad at you." Lauren huffed, trying hard to stop herself from smiling.

"That smile says otherwise."

"I'm smiling at something else."

"Sure. Give me a hug." Camila poked Lauren's side making the girl jump away and stop walking, pointing over at Camila.
