Past Lives

Part Five

"You did not  just say you got her tickets to see Ed Sheeran!" Dinah exclaimed, "he's Mila's absolute favorite person, like, ever!" Lauren had filled in the other three girls about her and Camila's for tomorrow while the latter was in the shower.

"Actually, that's exactly what I said," Lauren informed the youngest girl with a proud smile; she was still over the moon that she was able to make her girlfriend so happy before.

"Lauren, that's so sweet! What did she say?" Ally swooned over the couple.

Well, she was crying because I gave her a sappy speech first, but she asked how the fuck she deserves me," Lauren chuckled and shook her head, "and I told her I could ask the same about her."

"Ugh I want a Lauren." Dinah sighed dreamily.

"You suddenly want a girl now, Hansen?" Normani raised an eyebrow at Dinah.

"No, not like that! I just wish I could find a guy who's as chivalrous and kind as Lauren is to Mila, you know?" Dinah explained.

"Aw, thanks, D," Lauren smiled and pulled the girl in for a hug.

"So where are you two going for dinner tomorrow?" Normani inquired.

"Well, I was thinking of going to Rainbow Lodge..." Lauren started only to be cut off by Ally.

"No way! Mani and I went to Rainbow Lodge for our one-month anniversary!" Ally smiled fondly at the memory.

"Ah, Rainbow Lodge is bomb!" Normani nodded her head, "and it's not too fancy, but it's not too fast-food, either."

"That's good to hear, I'll make reservations tonight," Lauren pulled out her phone to set a reminder so she wouldn't forget to call the restaurant.

"You gonna get her flowers?" Dinah interrogated.

Lauren hummed, "something like that."

"There better be flowers when y'all get home tomorrow, Lauser," Dinah raised an eyebrow.

"There will be flowers, I promise," Lauren put a thumb up.

"Good. You know I love you, Ralph, but if you don't take care of my Mila then you'll get a free coupon for a poly beatdown," Dinah cracked her knuckles warningly.

"I get it, D," Lauren put up her hands in front of her in mock-surrender.

"Good," Dinah repeated her words from before with a resolute nod of her head.

"Lo?" The girls heard a small voice coming from the far end of the hallway.

"Yes, baby?" Lauren perked up immediately after she heard her girlfriend calling for her.

"Y'all are adorable!" Ally exclaimed in response to the girl's concerned tone.

"Just looking for you is all," Camila smiled a small smile as she walked into the room and sat down on Lauren's lap.

"Well, you've found me," Lauren grinned at the girl, pulling her in for a kiss.

"Finder's keepers," Camila winked, mimicking her girlfriend's words from the other day.

"Let's go get dinner! I'm starving," Dinah proposed.

"Sounds good to me!" Ally agreed as she stood up from the couch, pulling her girlfriend up with her.

Dinah narrowed her eyes at the two couples walking out to the car from the front porch and groaned, "ugh I hate being the fifth wheel!"

"Get used to it!" The four called back at her in unison earning an eye roll from the youngest girl.
