†Mute Bodyguard†

Prologue

"Lauren get your ass up!" Normani yanked the covers off of the pale girls body. Lauren groaned and placed her pillow on top of her head. She closed her eyes and smiled as she settles back into her deep sleep. "Fine you lazy bum, Dinah!" Normani yelled and immediately the tall Tongan girl came in with a bucket of water. Mani grabbed the bucket and poured it on Lauren's bare body.

Lauren screamed and fell off her bed. Dinah and Normani high fived each other for their success but it ended up having Dinah tripping Mani, causing them to fall on top of Lauren. The Tongan girl bursted out laughing. "Alright alright, let's get off of her." Normani said shoving Dinah and getting Lauren up. Lauren gave Mani a thumbs up. That was Lauren's way of saying thank you.

Lauren was mute, she couldn't speak, except to Camila. Camila was like a sister in Lauren's eyes. Lauren felt more comfortable talking to Camila in private. Thanks to Camila, Lauren made two new best friends in high school and here they are now, living in a 3 story modern house. She still hasn't gotten use to talking to Normani or Dinah.

"Now let's get you some breakfast because today is the day where my best friend is going to be a bodyguard." Normani cheered. She grabbed Lauren and Dinah downstairs where they met a sleeping Camila. Her face was in her cereal. As she snores you could see the bubbles forming in the milk. Lauren made a disgusted face as Dinah smirked. The tall girl looked at her girlfriend with a pout. "Oh hell no. Remember the last time we did this?" Mani said grabbing a plate of waffles for Lauren.

Lauren was sitting down waiting for Mani's delicious waffles. Normani placed them down and poured chocolate syrup on the waffles. "It'll be okay Mani, I got the washable markers this time." Dinah said taking the cap off of the black marker. Normani sighs as Lauren starts munching the waffles down. "When I drop Lauren to work and come back with Mila on top of you trying to stab you with a banana, I'm leaving." Dinah rolled her eyes and ignored her girlfriends stupidity. She lifted Camila's head up and started to draw a dick.

Lauren was finished with her breakfast and got up to put the dishes on the sink. Lauren gave her two fingers. I'm going to take a shower. Normani only nodded and grabbed herself a plate of waffles before sitting down to eat.

"Okay Lauren, soon you're going to be working for artists like Queen B. So don't fuck this up." Normani said while driving. What kind of inspirational motivation is that? Lauren thought to herself as she looked at the buildings passing by. They lived in New York City for almost 2 years now. This was Lauren's first job. Because Lauren was mute, she couldn't apply jobs that involved communication. So, Normani, Dinah, and Camila were the workers.

Mani adjusted her mirror and sees Lauren staring off into space. Normani was like a mother to Lauren. She would never leave her out of her sight. But this time the brown eyed girl had to know that she wasn't a child.

"Damn these emotions." Mani said stopping the car right in front of the huge building. Mani wiped the tears off of her face. "Now give mommy a kiss." Normani said sniffling. Lauren rolled her eyes and gave her a kiss on the cheek. She waved Normani a goodbye before going inside of the building. Lauren was confident. She wasn't nervous or panicking like the other people waiting in the lounge.

She sat down and waited for her name to be called. "Lauren Jauregui!" The old women yelled. She got up and walked to the desk. The old lady looked at Lauren with a serious face before checking her files. "You're mute?" The old lady asked surprised. Lauren nodded right away. "Well then go to room 202 and give these files to your boss." The old lady gave her the files and pointed at the elevator.

She went inside of the elevator. The small little room had frames of artists. But this one in particular caught her eye. She looked to see Ally, the famous pop singer. She was one of Lauren's favorite artists, or say 4th. If she ever got to meet her she would die.

The elevator opened and Lauren walked out. She spotted room 202 and knocked on the wooden black door. There were muffling noises but the door swung open. She gulped and saw the one and only Allyson Brooke Hernandez standing there. She started to smile and sweat at the same time.

"Ugh, you're here. Come on I don't have all day." Ally grabbed Lauren's files and handed it to Lauren's new boss. "Ah, Ms.Jauregui, we've been waiting for you. The names Drake Lynch, but call me Mr.Lynch." Mr.Lynch scanned the papers and looked surprised. "You're mute, but wow, I'm impressed with your stats. Looks like they trained you well." Mr.Lynch gave Lauren a pat on the shoulder. Lauren was proud of herself right now. But her mood vanished.

"Wait wait, so you're saying she can't talk?! Hell no, switch me to another idiot." Lauren started to feel heartbroken because she couldn't believe the person that was standing there was her favorite singer and now she dislikes the green eyed girl. Maybe I shouldn't had applied for this. Maybe I should had stayed home, I hope they don't fire me, Lauren thought.

"Listen Hernandez, if you don't accept this then wait until your career ends when they find out that you got murdered." Mr.Lynch growled.

Ally gritted her teeth. "Fine." The small girl left closing the door shut with a loud bang. Mr.Lynch sat on his large office chair. "Jauregui, you have the job, I know it's going to be tough having her bickering shit, but she'll come around." He said smiling. Lauren nodded. "You can go now." With just of a wave of his hand, Lauren left the office with a satisfying grin on her face. That was a close one. She rubbed her eyebrows with her hand.

She texted Mani to pick her up. Just in two minutes Mani was there. Lauren got in and kissed Mani in the cheek then giving her a warm hug. "Looks like you got a job, better write what happen when we get home." Normani chuckled as she drove off. "But first let's get some take out before we get back to the house. Camila's awake, so you can tell her first." Lauren smiled and hoped that everything would turn out well, including being friends with Ally, even if she dislikes her.

They made it home safely. Lauren carried the takeout while Mani was holding the sodas. Lauren knocked on the door. The door swung open and saw Camila smiling up at her. Camila took the bag from the pale girl and let her in. Mani went inside as well and gave the sodas to Dinah.

Mani then grabs the plates and serves them. Once everyone was finished Camila and Lauren excused themselves from the couple and made their way to Lauren's room. The pale girl has been aching to speak to her best friend.

As soon as they made it to Lauren's room. Camila locked the door behind her.

"Tell me about it Lolo, how was it?!" Camila squealed in excitement as she tugged Lauren to sit next to her on the bed. The green eyed girl sighed. "Truth or story?" Lauren asked. The brunette became confused and tilted her head like a pup. She didn't know what Lauren meant. She shrugged. "Truth."

What Camila didn't expect was the famous  singer being included in the 'truth'. She thought it would be something great, as most people thought of Ally as being one of the most magnificent human beings in the world. But Camila was wrong, actually everyone was. Lauren told her about the little incident that happened between Ally and her. She started crying in seconds and Camila felt the urge to go to that office and bitch slap the midget.

"It's okay baby...." Camila rubbed small circles around Lauren's back. Lauren rested her chin on Camila's shoulder as her tears pour down.
