Malibu Love

XI

For a few days now the girls were on good terms again, it's been almost a week since Camila's nightmare and all they did was get closer. There was no more weird tensions or ignoring each other, now there was bunch of secret but innocent touches, a lot of looking, a handful of giggles and so many smiles.

Neither Nick nor Mark noticed it, though. They both noticed the girls got closer but that's all, not for a second they thought there might be something more. Usually Lauren would get annoyed how Nick can sometimes be so oblivious but now, she's glad that's the case.

She enjoyed Camila's company more than anything. Sometimes they didn't even have to talk, both of them sitting on the other side of the living room, each having her book or phone in her hands. Every once in a while one of them would chuckle at something funny or groan at something annoying and the other one would turn her head around to find out what caused the reaction.

"What does W stand for?" Lauren asked out of the blue

"Huh?"

"On your notifications, what does W stand for?"

"Wattpad. Do I have the notification?"

Lauren hummed and went back to her book. Camila came closer and picked up her phone, letting out a shriek, earning a confused look from Camila.

"Care to share?" the older girl raised her eyebrow

"No, nevermind, go back to your book, it's stupid anyway." Camila said and looked back at her phone

A few moments later Camila felt like someone is watching her and when she turned around Lauren's gaze was indeed on her, her eyebrow raised.

"There's this um book?"

"What kind of book?"

"Well written one. With a nice plot and great choice of words."

"About?"

"Um two people."

Lauren let out a loud groan. "Camzzz."

"Larry." Camila mumbled, a bit ashamed of the fact she still reads One Direction fanfiction

Lauren only chuckled. "Guess some things never change?"

"Go ahead and make fun of me."

Lauren only shook her head and smiled harder. "For what? Your love for good literature? Your love for One Direction?"

Camila's hear skipped a beat because once again Lauren was the only one who understood her. Mark tried, he really did, but to him reading itself was a funny thing, but reading a One Direction fanfiction was on another level.

"Can I tell you a secret?" Lauren whispered and Camila nodded

"About a few months ago I was on YouTube, going through Little Mix videos and uh I kind of ended up watching Jerrie videos for a few hours. And I kind of maybe got hooked up on Jerrie fic on Tumblr." Lauren whispered

Camila faked a gasp. "Lauren Michelle! When did you become such a fangirl?"

"Say what you want but Perrie and Jade would be the hottest couple that The X Factor has created."

"After Larry."

"Larry is nothing compared to Jerrie!"

"Whatever you say boo, we all know who's right and who's wrong." Camila winked and flipped her hair

"Yeah, we know me is who's right, and you're wrong."

"Um no, are you blind? Larry would be so hot together."
