Kiss Me, I'm Legal.

Camila's POV

"Did you get everything you wanted for your birthday Mila? Did we miss anything?" Dinah asked as she brushed my hair. Today was my eighteenth birthday and by official US government standards, I was finally an adult.

"I don't think so D, I literally got everything I asked for. Except..." I trailed off. Dinah stopped brushing and looked at me through my mirror. "What is it?" she asked, a hint of concern in her voice.

I didn't know how to answer, so I looked down, cursing internally when I felt a blush reach my ears.

"Oh don't tell me...does it have anything to do with a certain green eyed, badass?" Still unable to respond, I brought my hands up to face, trying to hide the blush that refused to go away.

You see, ever since I was ten, I haven't been able to look at Lauren without wanting to be more than just friends. At first, I thought I just admired her, but then I started wanting to...Anyways, it's super annoying because I think she's straight and how could a girl like her want to kiss a girl like me? Dinah says if I can't woman up and tell her how I feel, then to just get over her.

"Damn it Mila, if you want her, then tell her you like her!" Dinah huffed as she put the brush down and went to lay on my bed. I rolled my eyes and walked up to her, a pout on my face.

She tried to keep a straight face on, but failed. She instead held her arms open for me and I almost immediately cuddled into her. "You know Walz...you should just-" I cut her off. "I know, I know, get over her."

Dinah sat up, and picked up her phone. It seemed liked she was texting someone. "I gotta go Mila, Happy Birthday. Tell your mom thanks for letting me celebrate with y'all." She kissed my cheek and rushed out of my room.

Confused at her sudden departure, I looked my phone. 10:46pm. As I was scrolling through Tumblr, I got a text.

Lern Jergi 💚: Can I come over?

Me: Sure :)

Lern Jergi 💚: Thanks, I'll be over in ten. :)

My heart fluttered as the thought of Lauren coming over fully hit me. Apparently I was pretty focused on that as time seemingly flew by before I heard three knocks on my front door. Excitedly, I jogged down the stairs and opened the door. "Hey Lauren." I smiled at her. "Hi Camila." She went in for a hug that I gladly reciprocated.

As she walked in, I took in her appearance. Black Dr. Martens, black ripped skinny jeans, a 'The 1975' T-shirt, and her signature leather jacket. To me, she just looked so cool. I was kind of staring when she caught my attention by saying "How's my little birthday girl?" I smiled and blushed before answering "I'm good, how're you?" Her green eyes met mine. "I'm fine, it's so nice to see my little Camzie growing up."

We walked up my stairs into my room. When we got there, she immediately laid down on on my bed.

"So...guess what?" Lauren asked smiling. Thinking for a second, I responded "You're finally gonna hang with us?"

The thing is, Lauren is four years older than me, she's 22. She's in college right now, so it's not often that Dinah and I see her anymore. It didn't come as a surprise when Normani told us that Lauren and Ally couldn't make it to my little celebration.

"Hey...don't be like that..." She scooted to side of my bed and patted her lap. I rolled my eyes, "Laur, I'm not a kid anymore." I said referring to when I was still a kid and she would let me sit on her lap.
