Camren- The Way She Feels

Chapter 1

Lauren's POV

"Thank you Chicago! Goodnight!" Dinah yelled as we walked off the stage.

The crowed kept cheering and cheering as we left.

"Oh my god that was a good show" Ally said to us backstage.

"Yeah it was" I agreed.

"Yeah. Lauren you do that dance so well when we sing 'All In My Head'" Camila said.

I instantly felt my cheeks getting red. I looked down and just smiled and nodded as me saying thank you. Why would she say that? She's never complimented my dancing before. Well I mean at least not recently. Camila looked at me and put her head down. An awkward silence fell and I looked back up and saw all the girls looking at me.

"Well um.. Let's go take a shower and then go back to the bus, yeah?" Normani suggested.

"Yeah" I replied quickly. I grabbed all my stuff from the changing room, and took a took a quick shower in the tiny bathroom they had. I got out and went to the tour bus, seeing all the girls besides Camila sitting on their phones. When i walked in all eyes were on me.

"What?" I asked them.

"Okay honestly Lauren, you need to stop avoiding Camila. She's been acting so different once you started too. I know, you like her and all and you don't want to slip up and say it but you have to try." Ally said.

I looked at each one of them. They're right. But in a way they're wrong. I've liked Camila ever since I met her on the X Factor. But I started avoiding her when i realized I was in love with her. She doesn't feel the same and it's killing me. I just think that if I stay away from her it won't hurt that bad.
-----------------------------------------
It was rehearsal time and I was on my phone texting my best friend Vero. As I was texting her i heard an innocent voice speak to me.

"Hey I like your shirt" she said. I looked up and say the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. She has a white skirt on, white heels, and a light blue crop top on with the same color bow in her long brown hair. All I had on was a black t-shirt that said "The 1975", black skinny jeans and converse on. She gave me little smile and I felt my heart flutter.

"T-thanks." I said. Oh my god. Did I just stutter? I never stutter.

"You're welcome. My name is Camila by the way." Camila. That's such a beautiful name and it fits her so well. Is really stunning actually. Wait what am I saying?? I'm not gay! At least.. I don't think I am? Ugh what? I'm not sure oh how I'm feeling but I do know this girl is making me feel something I haven't felt before. I was too busy thinking when j realized I forgot to respond to her. She was looking at me sort of confused.

"Oh um.. Im Lauren." I said shyly.

"Yeah I know. I mean not to sound creepy or anything when I say that though. I just saw your audition. You're really great." She said with a smile

I felt my cheeks heat up. Did she really think I was great? I felt my stomach getting butterflies and my heart beat rise.

"Wow thank you. It means a lot." I told her sincerely. She had this excited smile on her face and it made me smile. "No problem! But hey I have to go. I'll talk to you later though! It was really great meeting you." She told me. I was a little disappointed she had to go because I really wanted to get to know her.

"Yeah cool. Bye" I said as casually as I could.

"Bye!" She said and she came closer and gave me a quick hug. I tried to return the hug as quickly as I can but as I was about to, she let go and ran off. I felt disappointed because I really wanted to hug her back. But that quick hug she gave me felt so right and amazing. I don't know. This is probably a phase. I mean it's normal to think girls are attractive right? I mean the butterflies and sweaty palms are just early nerves for the performance tomorrow right? Yeah that's it's. But I can't help having a feeling this girl is going to have a power over me and I don't know how to feel about that.
