"Nice to meet you, Y/N," Sinu smiled, shaking Y/N's hand.

"You too," Y/N smiled back. "Thank you for the dinner,"

Though they haven't ate yet, Y/N still wanted to be polite. Camila stood next to her mom, smiling at Y/N.

"No problem, it'll be done in about an hour," Sinu told her. "You two go on now."

Camila smiled at Y/N, motioning her to follow her. The two walked upstairs, going into Camila's room. Y/N shut the door behind them, looking around Camila's room. The walls were painted a sunset orange, and multiple posters hung on the wall, like The Arctic Monkeys, Ed Sheeran, The 1975, and Lana Del Rey.

"I love the Arctic Monkeys and The 1975," Y/N commented, eyes going back to Camila, who now sat on the bed.

"Really?" her eyes lit up. "There's only one other person I know who listens to The 1975."

"Yeah? Who?" Y/N sat next to Camila.

"Lauren," Camila quietly said.

"Oh," Y/N murmured, then quietly added, "You two have history?"

"I - yeah," Camila admitted, nodding. Y/N didn't respond, she just looked at Camila. When Y/N didn't say anything, Camila continued. "We started dating Freshmen year, broke up at before Junior year started. We didn't see each other all summer."

"Why? If you don't mind me asking," Y/N quickly added the last part.

"Lauren had family issues - I'm not aloud to say," Camila answered, and Y/N nodded. "We just didn't work, you know?"

"Yeah, I guess,"

"Can we not talk about it?" Camila questioned. "Sorry - it's just, I rather not think about it."

"Yeah," Y/N smiled at her. "Of course. What do you wanna talk about?"

"Any siblings?" Camila asked.

"One, her name is Reese, she's a freshmen, fifteen years old," Y/N answered. "You?"

"Sofia," Camila said. "She's eight. Any hobbies?"

"Nah, not really," Y/N shrugged. "You?"

Y/N eyed the guitar in the corner of the room, then looked back at Camila.

"I play guitar and sing," Camila said. "That's about it. I like to read a lot."

Y/N looked at the three book shelves, smiling at how many books Camila had. She then looked back at Camila, who was already staring at her.

"Where'd you move from, Y/N?" Camila asked.

Y/N's fingers played with the quilt on the bed, "Virginia."

Camila nodded, "You like it here in Miami?"

"Better than Virginia, for sure," Y/N honestly said. "Besides, there isn't you in Virginia, so yeah. I do like it here in Miami."

Camila blushed again, ducking her head so Y/N wouldn't see. But she did see, and it caused her to smile like idiot. Camila was also smiling, feeling her heart slightly fluttered.

"You're a flirt, you know?" Camila joked, giggling a bit.

Y/N lightly laughed, "Only for you."

Truth is, this is a first for Y/N. Flirting, laughing, and smiling with someone that wasn't Reese. Y/N has no experience flirting or going on dates or anything similar to a significant other.

"What's your favorite color?" Y/N suddenly asked.

"Uh, orange and blue. Why?" Camila answered.

"Starting off with the basic questions," Y/N grinned. "I wanna know all about you, Camila Cabello."

Sofia and Sinu sat across from Y/N and Camila. The table was sat up differently, for some reason. Sinu had said she wanted to try something different.

"Pasta is delicious, Mrs. Cabello," Y/N politely said, smiling as she took another bite. It's been awhile since she's had a home cooked meal.

"Thank you," she smiled. "And please, call me Sinu."

"Y/N! Look at my drawing!" Sofia abruptly said, slightly startling Y/N. Sofia pulled out a picture of a pink and purple butterfly. "Do you like it?"

Y/N smiled, "I love it. Are you an artist?"

Sofia grinned, nodding her head, "Yeah!"

Y/N lightly laughed again. She admiringly stared at Sofia, happy that at least some children get a good childhood. She then shook her head, looking at Camila, who smiled at Y/N.

"Do you got a sister, Y/N?" Sinu asked.

"Yeah, her name is Reese. She's fifteen," Y/N answered.

Sinu nodded, taking another bite. Y/N saw a family portrait, but she didn't see Camila's father anywhere. So, she didn't ask about it, not wanting to talk about what might be a sensitive subject.

"What do your parents do?" Sinu asked. Y/N tensed up, and for a split second, Camila saw the panic flash across her face, but Y/N quickly dismissed it.

"They travel a lot for business," Y/N answered, plastering a fake smile on her face.

"Ah, so does Camila's father," Sinu said. "Won't be back for another month."

That answered Y/N's question.

"Oh," Y/N murmured, drinking from the glass. She glanced over at Camila, who was staring at her with curiosity.

The gears in Camila's head were turning. If Y/N's parents both were on business trips, wouldn't they have a little more money? Meaning that they wouldn't live in such a small house. Lauren had said Y/N was her new neighbor, and she knew the house next door to Lauren's is small. Probably about three bedrooms, but then again, that's enough for two kids, and a happily married couple. Maybe they didn't like showing off their money.

It's none of Camila's business. Camila shook her head, and continued to eat.

But Camila thinks Y/N is hiding something.

Sinu had went upstairs after dinner, along with Sofia. Camila told me that after dinner, she usually washed the dishes and put them away. I offered to help, so that's what we're doing now.

I could tell by the way she was looking at me that she knew I was hiding something. I've seen that look plenty of times back in Virginia. She didn't ask about it, though. And I silently thank her for that.

"I gotta go in a couple of minutes," I told Camila. "Reese is probably getting lonely."

"Okay," she nodded. "Thanks for coming over. I had a great time."

"Thanks for having me," I smiled. "Dinner was delicious."

I finished wiping the table off, and Camila finished putting the dishes away. We were now walking to her front door.

"Yeah," she smiled. "Come over anytime, okay?"

I stared down at her, admiring her brown eyes, "Yeah."

We stood in silence for a minute. My right hand was placed on the door handle. I swallowed, glancing down at her lips, then back to her eyes.

"I'll see you tomorrow?" I inquired.

"Yeah," she nodded.

I took a chance and leaned down, pressing a kiss on her cheek. I flushed red, as did she, and smiled, then left.

I inhaled deeply, grinning as I got into the car.
