Camila was stirred awake about five minutes ago by a hand gently brushing though her hair but she hadn't opened her eyes yet because she could feel Lauren staring at her. No one had every really though she was beautiful yet, here's Lauren who is able to stare at her for what seems like hours and never get bored.
"I know you're awake." Lauren whispered after about ten minutes making Camila groan.
"How?"
"You weren't snoring anymore."
Camila's eyes snapped open to look at Lauren who was grinning. "I do not snore."
"You kinda do. It's cute, though."
Camila narrowed her eyes at Lauren. "I don't snore." She huffed, turning onto her other side so that her back was to Lauren.
"Ok, if that's what helps you sleep at night." Lauren whispered, wrapping her arms around Camila's waist and shuffling towards the girl before muttering into her ear. "You don't snore."
"I know." Camila agreed, turning her head to look up at Lauren.
Lauren smiled, the crinkles in her nose showing, before leaning forwards and pecking Camila quickly on the tip of her nose. "How about that date on Monday? It's Harry's day off so her could babysit Isabella."
"He would be alright with that?"
"I'll ask him but I'm sure he will be."
"Ok, what are we doing?"
"Not dinner or drinks, that's boring. Let's do something different."
"Like?" Camila prompted, arching her eyebrows at Lauren.
"Well, when I came up here to visit Normani last year we went ice skating at Wollman rink."
"I don't know if I can ice skate."
"I'll show you. It's easy." Lauren assured. "And when you're a pro because of my amazing teaching skills we can go back with Isabella."
"You always include Isabella in any plans you're making." Camila said as more of a statement than a question.
"Of course I do." Lauren mumbled, watching her thumb as it traced the line of Camila's jaw. "I meant what I said. I enjoy spending time with you and Isabella."
"I just didn't think that would ever happen. I didn't think people just accepted a kid that wasn't theirs."
"I didn't even have to think about it. Isabella means a lot to me." Lauren smile, lifting her head when she heard soft footsteps to see Isabella standing by the door, rubbing her eye with one hand and clutching onto her teddy with the other.
"Hey, sweetie, you coming up before we have to get out of bed?"
Isabella nodded, climbing onto the bed and snuggling up to Camila.
Isabella's eyes drooped sleepily as her mom ran her fingers through her wavy brown hair.
Lauren probed her head up on her fist, smiling down at Isabella and Camila.
Isabella rolled over slightly, holding her hand out to Lauren. "Handy." Isabella muttered sleepily, taking ahold of Lauren hand and pulling it until it was slung over Camila's body. "Mommy likes to cuddle."
Lauren laughed, lightly squeezing Camila's side.
"Hey, cutie, I figured since you're the one who protects you mom I should ask for your permission first."
Isabella frowned and turned on her back to look curiously up at Lauren. "For what?"
"I would quite like to take your mom on a date but I need her little superheroes permission. So, would that be ok with you?"
