"Why'd you want me to meet you here?"

Lauren and Camila were sitting on a swing set at the park near Camila's house. The latter being unusually quiet.

"Well," Camila started. "I need to talk to you."

Lauren's brows furrowed  when she heard the girls hesitant words. "About?"

"Us."

"Us?"

"Us."

"What about us?"

"Well, I mean. Obviously right now we're friends. But we're like, teetering on the edge of not friends. And I just want to know if we're on the same page about everything because I just don't want to push you into anything but I really do want to move forward and I know it's probably stupid and you might not even want to-"

"Camz." Lauren cut her off gently. "I didn't know you even wanted anything out of this."

"You didn't?"

"No. I'm glad you told me, really." The older girl admitted. "I want to move forward too. Believe me, I do. I'm sorry if I made it seem like I don't want to."

Camila almost wanted to smile at how spot on Dinah had been.

"It's just, sexuality is a confusing thing for me. And you're the first girl I've ever seriously liked so it's kind of scary." Lauren told her sheepishly.

"I get it. We don't have to rush or anything. I just wanted to know where you stood, I guess." Camila shrugged.

"Well, I very much so want to move forward with this." Lauren smiled. "Slowly." She added carefully.

"Slowly." Camila nodded.

"Is that everything you wanted to talk about?" Lauren asked, trying to hide how ecstatic she was that Camila actually wanted a relationship with her.

"Well, there is one more thing." Camila said timidly, a smile creeping on her face.

"Yeah?"

"Can we go get Menchies?"

Lauren shook her head fondly with a giggle.

"Sure."

A/N
Rant time y'all.

Honestly, I'm so irritated atm. Ik it's a little late to be heated about this, but everybody freaking out over Lauren only saying 'thank you' to Camila's birthday wish. Like why??? First of all, Camila didn't say I love you either, and second, the girls probably felt like they COULDNT say I love you without every single person saying Camren. Like, it was taken too far and they're obviously uncomfortable with the concept of it now. Yes, clearly I do ship Camren, but I'm not delusional. They're denied being together on many accounts and sure I think they'd be cute together but I would never try to force it on them. Whether they're straight or not, that's really none of our business if they haven't chosen to speak up. So people trying to convince them that they're gay are being, quite frankly, insensitive.

I'm gonna stop there. I could rant forever about this ugh.

Anyway!! I hope you're enjoying the story.
