Your POV

Yellow Flicker: Chapter 20

I close my notebook, putting it in the drawer. I stand up and run a hand through my hair. Lauren is downstairs with the others. As I exit the room and walk downstairs, I hear the fire crackling and soft giggles. I make my way to the living room, where Lauren and Camila are. I sit down next to Lauren, softly sighing.

"What cha talking about?" I ask, looking at the two girls.

"Nothing much, just planning what we're doing today." Camila answers.

"Yeah? And what's that?"

"The pond, canoeing." Lauren responds.

----

Like Lauren said, we're canoeing. Demi is with Ally, Harry is with Camila, Dinah is with Normani, Jacob is with Bea, I'm with Lauren - and Evan is alone. Actually, he decided to stay inside. I don't know what he's doing.

But the sun is setting right about now. I'm rowing, while Lauren looks at the sun and other things. I smile as I stare at her. Her hair is let down, falling over her left shoulder. She's wearing jeans and one of my hoodies, that is big on her, but she doesn't mind.

Shouldn't I just tell her I love her? Like, if she loves me back, she wouldn't be scared or run away, right? But this is different, because I'm actually telling someone I love them for the first time in along time. Okay, I can do this.

"Lauren," I take a deep breath and stop rowing. "I-I."

"Y/N? Are you okay?" She asks, worried plastered over her.

"I love you." I blurt out, closing my eyes. I slowly open my eyes to be greeted by a big smile on her face.

She leans forward and kisses me, "I love you too."

-----

I lock the bedroom door, softly pinning Lauren against it. My lips move in sync with hers. Lauren wraps her legs around my waist, my hands under her thighs, supporting her. Her hands tangle in my hair, softly moaning as our tongues roam each other's mouth.

I turn us around and set her on the bed, now hovering over her as my hands rest between her head. My feet are still on the floor, while Lauren's legs are still wrapped around my waist and her back is on the bed.

I begin to kiss her neck, planting soft kisses over it. I then start to leave open mouth kisses, sucking on her neck. Lauren doesn't care as I leave a hickey. My hands start to go under her shirt, feeling her toned stomach. She takes it off, seeing as I want it off.

I pull away and kiss her stomach, my eyes locking with hers. My hands travel to the back of her bra.

"Can I?" I ask, her nodding. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Yes," She nods. "I want you to be my first."

-----

Lauren's head rests on my chest as we both pant. We're both naked, our legs tangled together as we lay in the bed.

"That-that was amazing." Lauren breaths out. I look down at her, smiling ear-to-ear.

"I love you." I place a chaste kiss on her lips.

"I love you too."

-----

We just got back home after the two awesome days. That vacation was the best time I've had in along time. Especially with Lauren, it just made me fall in love with her even more.

We're currently unloading the luggage. I carry a bag as I'm the first one inside the house. But once I go to put the key in, it's already unlocked. I furrow my eyebrows as I walk inside the house. My eyes widen once I see everything trashed.
