Brown eyes fluttered open to see blue skies with a few clouds floating. The sun was shining harshly in her eyes and it was then that she noticed a splitting head ache that went from the front of her head all the way to the back. She groaned and closed her eyes as she held her forehead in pain. Her small hands rubbed at her eyes and when she opened them once more the harsh sun wasn't in her eyes any longer, but instead her eyes were met with worried green ones staring back at her.

Lauren looked down worried at the woman who had just now woken up. She turns back to where the three other women were and whistled. In almost no time Normani was the first to arrive holding a water bottle and a few pills from their first aid kit.

"Hi, my name is Normani.", the Texan said helping the petit woman sit up. Her brown hair was slightly tangled and she looked around confused. "Do you remember your name?" Normani asked as she held out the pills and water bottle.

The small brunette nodded, "Camila. Camila Cabello." She answered taking the pills and water bottle. "What is this?"

"It's ibuprofen. To help with the pain you're most likely feeling." Camila hesitantly took the pills and looked between the green eyed woman, who kept staring and Normani. Normani quickly took notice and rose her eyebrows in realization. Dinah and Ally eventually caught up and stared down at the woman, who sat on the floor. "This is Lauren, Dinah, and Ally. This is kind of hard to say, but umm we may or may not have accidentally hit you with our car." Normani cringed as she played with her hands nervously.

"May." Dinah said from behind the Texan.

"You hit me with your car?" Camila asked.

Each girl nodded sadly, "But in our defence it was raining hard and Lauren lost control of the wheel and then you just happened to pop out of nowhere and now we're in this awkward position of telling you how we hit you and we are very very sorry." Ally quickly said in one breath as she gripped her hat tightly.

Camila blinked a few times allowing her mind to compute what the short woman just said. She stood up and realized she was laying on a red flannel and a backpack.

"Where were you headed? We'll take you there to make it up for... you know." Normani offered. Dinah furrowed her eyebrows in anger as her brow eyes were practically burning a hole into the Texans head.

"I actually don't even remember." The brown eyed woman said rubbing her head.

"Do you at least remember why you were out here?" Dinah asked.

Camila shook her head, "No, I can't remember much."

Dinah sighed and rubbed the back of her neck. Normani stared worrisome at the confused woman. "Holy shit, we knocked out her memory." Normani gasped.

"Well not completely. She knows her name. Right, Camilla?" Dinah said panicked.

"No, it's Camila. CamEEla." She rephrased.

"There you go. She remembers her name."

"That's a good sign." Ally said with a worried smile.

"Do you know what happened to the world?" Dinah asked.

Camila sighed, "Yeah, an infection spread like wild fire. The infected began attacking other people, infecting them."

"Okay that's good. We didn't do that much damage."

As the three women were bickering with one another Camila just watched until her eyes drifted to the side to notice that Lauren hadn't stopped staring. Camila simply glanced at the green eyed woman until she heard her name being called.
