Chapter 27: Reservations?!

I pulled Lauren inside by the hand to go inside the fancy pizza place and away from the chilly weather. "Careful love. Easy!" She laughed whilst we nearly bumped into another couple ahead of us. I felt myself blushing and looked down for a second before walking up to the front desk, grinning at our joined hands. "Welcome, how many?" The waiter asked. "Table for two, Camila is the reservation." I answered proudly hearing Lauren gasp quietly behind me and giggle in surprise. "Right this way." He grabbed two menus and led us to a window booth. "I can't believe you actually made reservations the right way babe I'm proud." Lauren's warm arms pulled me into her from behind; I melted into her easily. "Me too, my ego is over the roof." I grinned up at her before sliding into one side of the booth whilst she slid into the other. He left once we ordered our drinks; I watched Lauren as she tugged at the napkin to free the silverware. I love just staring at her face, it's so cute when she scrunches her nose up at anything I say or whenever she's messing around with the  girls. "Whatcha trying to accomplish here babe?" I watched her struggle with her napkin for a minute. "It's origami." She mumbled, fiddling with the edges of the napkin. "What's that?"

"This." She had a little victorious grin on her face as she slid over her napkin. It was folded into a heart. "Aw Lauren. You're seriously too cute." I twined my legs with the soccer player's beneath our table, she took my hands in hers. "So's my girlfriend." She poked her tongue out at me. I was having an overload of cuteness at her words. "Thank you so much Lauren, honestly." I smiled. "For what?" She wondered. "Just for appreciating me and for our time together." She never made me feel like I was wasting my time, Lauren was worth anything to me-always. "Always Camila. I know this is cheesy, but you are the best thing that's happened to me. I've never doubted that." She had that look in her eyes that made me absolutely positive how much of a connection we both shared. It was the same look she had the day she told me that she loved me (so cheesy but true). I leaned forwards a bit to kiss my beautiful girlfriend on the lips, feeling her respond immediately to me and rest her hands on my cheeks. Her lips as sweet as I always remembered. I started getting into it until I heard very familiar voices coming into the pizza place. "Well the last few times you fixed that stove it's been fine! No need to replace it." My mother's voice came towards Lauren and I. "Laur." I whispered against her lips; she chuckled and pecked me again. "Ah there she is! My girl." My dad announced as he came right over to us. "Lauren!"

"Sh-.Oh h-hi Mrs. Cabello!" Lauren shot away from me and back into her seat in the booth. My mom laughed and pulled her into a hug; dad just smirked at me. "How are you Lauren, is she treating you well?" Mom asked her when she pulled away. "I'm excellent, she actually made the reservations for us tonight." I grinned at that; mom turned to eye me in amazement. "What are you doing to my daughter Lauren? This is wonderful!" I pouted, of course. They always tease me in front of her; it seems to be their passion whenever I bring her home or we're together in front of them. "I well, she's the one that's made me happy. I only try and do the same you know?" She shrugged but I still saw the look in her eyes. That made me keep smiling again. My parents talked to us for a while longer and then floated off to find their own table; having me sigh in relief. "Thank god that's over!" I giggled playfully. Lauren shook her head slowly. "Come on babe, you're their kid and they're being good parents." She took my hand again. I smiled softly. "Guess so." 

"-Leigh look! I found familiar people!" Another Geordie voice caught me by a slight bit of surprise. "Is the whole school going to come to this one pizza place?" I whined from being snapped out of my moment with my girlfriend who only chuckled, blushing slightly. "No, we actually thought this place would be out of the way of anyone from school? Guess not." Perrie pouted. "It's okay guys, just hide away if more people come." I chuckled. Leigh nodded, squeezing her girlfriend's hand. I still can't get over how beautiful those two are together. Perrie's kindness and Leigh-Anne's overall cuteness it is literally too much to handle. But they make it work so well. "Hiya Leigh-Anne, how are you?" I asked her after she hugged Lauren and I.

Great, Perrie and I are having a date night; I'm not surprised we're at a pizza place at all she signed to me. I nodded in agreement, she loves her pizza too. Just like me! I answered. She only shrugged but nodded knowingly. "We're going to go to our table. See you tomorrow Lauren!" Perrie hugged us goodbye, Leigh waved. "Don't forget my shin guards Perrie!" Lauren called to her before she was completely out of earshot. Lauren suddenly started to tap me, something she does generally when she wants to tell me something. "Hmm?" I hummed. "Ooh I just remembered Mila. So today, in school-keep this low by the way pleaaase-anyways, in school Leigh and I went to spend our free period in the music room because we wanted to play the piano. So when we walked by Jade's class I saw Ms. Nelson." She started. "The new drama teacher?" I raised an eyebrow, of course, most of the student body thinks that she's hot. That's no secret at all. "Yeah, anyways, I know you already know that everyone thinks she's hot. But I believe that she's actually got the possibility of liking someone in our class. I saw it today." She was lightly pawing at my arm, surprising me a bit. "But you can't date anyone in the school! Students I mean." I gasped. "Exactly, but, oh whatever, it's Jade."

I let that sink in for a minute. Jade and Ms. Nelson. "Whoa." Is all I said, but for some reason; I could see it. But Jade deserves someone that can look after her and be with her wherever they go. "I know, but anyways I couldn't keep that completely to myself I had to say something sorry." She blushed. "It's fine Laur, you're very off topic sometimes, but I love that about you silly." I chuckled and prodded her nose. She kissed my finger and only grinned. "I love you."

"I love you too."
