Grow Old Without You (Chapter 49)

LAUREN

I know it wasn't a good time to just let Camila relive all that Justin did to her after the past few days, but in order to get this case in our favor, we have to prepare for what's to come. The twins were already with Keana, accompanying them. She knows the twins shouldn't know about everything that happened to their mother. We don't want them learning on how to hate, and have a grudge on someone as stupid as Beiber.

I prepared food for everyone that would be coming in today. The lawyer that Iñigo hired for us, my lawyer, and Camila's will be helping us get everything settled. Knowing Justin, he would probably hire one of the best in the country, paying him so much just to win this case, but who's in jail right now?

Camila's mood changed. I mean I know she's not happy about reliving everything that happened, but she knows she has to.

But what are we right now? The kissing, the almost sleeping together? I know we're ex wives in paper, but between us, we're Camz and Lolo, and I guess that label says alot.

"Camz, the lawyers are already here. Are you almost done?" I knocked on the bathroom door.

"Almost." I heard a faint answer from the other side of the door. She's been there for quite some time now. I even had to use Keana's bathroom to save time and not to wait for her anymore.

"Babe, I'm coming in okay." I said as I opened the door not even waiting for her answer. "Baby, why aren't you dressed?" I asked as she was butt naked in front of the sink. If it was in another situation, I would gawk at her, but her face showed sorrow.

"Lo." Her voice cracked, and now I know what's up. "I-I'm scared." She whispered as I walked closer to her.

"Hey. It's okay." I said as I stood beside her, not wanting to cross any lines. She's after all naked.

"Is it just us? And the lawyers?" She said looking up at me as I nodded my head. She buried her face to my chest. "I don't want the others to know." She whispered as I put my arms around her holding her close.

"I know love, but they're still gonna know. When the trial comes, they'll want to be there." I explained as she whimpered. "They deserve to know what was happening to you."

"Yeah." She sighed.

"You're going have to put on clothes, okay?" I joked as she giggled softly.

"Can we stay here for a couple more minutes? Just like this?"

"Ofcourse." I whispered as I hugged her tighter, savoring the moment.

"Lo, thank you for everything. For this, for just making sure I'm getting bett--" I lifted her face with both my hands and kissed her lips.

"You deserve the world, Camzi. I'm just doing everything I missed the past few years." I smiled at her as kissed her lips again. "I love you, okay." I said looking straight into her eyes.

"I love you Laur. Always have, always been you." She whispered burying her face on my chest again.

"We're positive that we'll have the judge's and the jury's sides. Even with just the kidnapping case, we're already good." Analise, the head Lawyer said as Camila just nodded her head.

Analise was the Lawyer Inigo got for this case, and when he said the best, she's the best in  Women and Child Protection cases.

"That's good to hear." I nodded my head as I looked at the three lawyers in front of me.
