*Camila's p.o.v*
I woke up to the sound of a body shifting next to me. It's Lolo. She has her grip around my waist and she sounded fast asleep. I feel really safe in her arms. She saved me last night and she was there for me. I was always the girl who said they'll never be friends with someone who's a badass because they only get into trouble. But the truth is, Lauren is different. She's not a trouble maker. She's not a cold person. She's sweet and caring.
"Camz?" Lauren said in her morning voice. It was sexy. Wait why am I thinking that? I think I'm falling for her.
"Yeah? I'm awake."
"Good, how'd you sleep?" she asked still not taking her grip away.
"I slept pretty good because I felt safe." I said trying not to blush.
"Oh, good. I slept pretty good too."
"If you want Lolo, you can shower here, I have a hoodie and sweats you can wear." I said while biting my lip.
"Sure."
"But I'm gonna shower first ok?" I asked her.
"Ok."
I don't think she realized she still had her grip on me.
"Lolo? Your grip..."
"Oh right sorry." she said while giggling.
I giggled along with her and I grabbed a towel, shorts, and a tshirt.
*Laurens p.o.v*
Wow she's perfect. I was able to cuddle her and now I get to use her clothes? No if I want this to work I got to take this slow. Maybe me and her will become bestfriends and then she'll end up feeling the same way. All I know is that I connect with her so much. Now, I need to find what she uses to release. I think logically of where I would hide such a thing. Then that's when I think of it, it might be taped under her desk. I get up and go to her desk and check and I was right. That's when I see it. What she uses. Just holding it makes my heart hurt knowing she does such things to herself. I kept it in my hand and thought of where I can put it. Since Camila just got in the shower I have at least 10 minutes to hide this. Then a good plan comes. I go downstairs quietly noticing her parents are still asleep. I go out the front door and look around, after a few minutes I think of what to finally do and I throw out the object into the sewer. After I do I run back into the house where I see Camila standing at the bottom of the staircase.
"Hey Camz how was your shower?"
"Don't try to avoid this, what did you throw away?" she said with her arms crossed.
"The thing that's hurting you."
"You mean my release? DID I GIVE YOU PERMISSION?"
"No but-"
"No right!? Do me a favor and stay out of my stuff."
"I am Camz I just don't want you to have hold of something that can hurt you."
"Whatever. Go take a shower. The towels are in the bathroom closet and I put the clothes on the bathroom counter." She said bluntly while looking down.
"Thanks."
"Yeah."
I went upstairs to the bathroom and took a long warm shower. I needed to relax, I got really upset at the fact that Camila is mad at me. When I was done I put on the hoodie and blow dried my hair. I looked for Camila and she was downstairs watching cartoons. I sat next to her and I stayed quiet. She looked kind of empty. I wanted to know what was wrong with her. I knew she was trying to ignore me so I grabbed her hand.
"Camz I know you're mad at me and trying to ignore me so I'll just tell you how I feel and hopefully you're listening. When you showed me how you released it broke my heart. It hurt a lot. You may think this sounds weird but I've grown an attachment with you to where I really care about you. I feel like you're already one of my best friends. So when you showed that release I just wanted to punch and throw everything that hurts you and I wanted to help however I could. That's why I threw it out to where you can't get hold of it." Tears started to form in my eyes. I felt her hand squeeze mine so I looked at her and noticed she was looking at me.
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be Lolo. I forgive you anyways. Just don't cry."
"Ok." I said still frowning. Then she started tickling me.
"C-CAMZ S-S-STOP!" I said giggling.
"Good I got a smile out of you!"
"Oh yeah? PAY BACK!" I said tickling her back. She kept giggling. I loved her laugh. We kept tickle fighting til a point where I was on top of her and her face was just centimeters from mine.
We stared at each other in silent and I smiled big. So did she. I started to move my face closer to hers until I heard a man clear their throat.
"What is going on here?" Camilas dad asked.
"Papi, we were having a tickle fight because Laur was upset so then she got pouty that I tickled her so it led to the tickle fight and you walked in when we were in an awkward position that means absolutely nothing." She said.
"Oh okay." Her dad said while chuckling.
My heart dropped. Absolutely nothing? I guess, she'll never like me that way..
"Yeah sorry sir." I said looking his way.
"Lauren would you like something for breakfast?"
"I would love to Mr.Cabello but I have to go."
"You have to go?" Camila asked.
"Yeah. I have to go, my moms worried about me." Camila looked at me knowing I was lying.
"Sorry. Bye Camila, thanks for letting me stay over, thank you Mr.Cabello." I hugged them both and walked out. I walked out and cried. But then I felt someone behind me. It was Camila.
"Camila why are you following me?" I said not looking at her so she can't see that I was crying.
"I'm following you because you lied about why you had to leave and you called me Camila instead of Camz." she said.
"I'm sorry I just don't feel well." I said letting my voice crack.
Camila lifted my chin.
"Then why are you crying?" she said looking into my eyes.
"F-forget about it." I said looking to the side.
"Tell me."
"No.."
"Was it because the excuse I gave my dad?"
I stayed quiet.
"I only said it so he can go away."
I still stayed quiet.
She moved her face closer to mine.
"Lolo, I know this is weird but I have feelings for you, and those green eyes make me insane."
I felt butterflies.
"Since we're being honest here, I fell for you when I saw you under the light at the park and those brown eyes stuck in my head for a while and last night when we cuddled I felt safe and I slept good for the first time in a while." I told her. She smirked and brought her face closer. Finally our lips crashed and it felt like heaven. It was perfect as our lips were in sync.
We kissed and as we both pulled away we said in sync.."FINALLY...."
