    You're sitting in the living room with the majority of the house after having eaten breakfast together. You're completely happy, relaxed, and well rested. To make everything even more sweeter, the drugs that were slipped into Ariana's drinks last night still have her in a deep sleep, allowing you to feel extremely care free,
    "Kids, are you sure you can't stay for a little bit longer?" Anna asks,
    "Sorry Mom, we all have to go back home though," Lauren says with an apologetic look while motioning towards herself, Normani, and Zayn,
    "Sorry Aunt A, we have to go too," Selena says for herself, Ally, and Ariana,
    "Same as them," Camila says for you, her, and Dinah,
    "Thank you for allowing all of us to stay here though. It's been so great getting to know all of you," you say with a smile on your face while holding Camila's hand,
    "No problem, Sweetheart. Thank you for coming and for practically dragging CC here. If it weren't for you, I'm not so sure we'd have her back in our lives," Anna says with a sincere smile while Kyle nods his head and sends you an appreciative smile as well,
    "Well we better all get up and start packing and getting ready to leave then," Ally says. Before anyone can stand up, a new presence appears,
    "Well look what the cat dragged in," Selena says while smirking at the new presence, Ariana,
    "We figured you died or something. I owe Ally ten bucks because of you!" Dinah jokingly says,
    "Ha-ha, very funny. Something must've knocked me out I guess," Ariana responds which leads to Zayn snickering and Normani slightly hitting his arm,
    "Yeah. It's called one too many tequila shots," Lauren responds with a small smirk which earns some laughs,
    "Oh yea, you'd know. That's pretty much all you do in your free time, right?" You can't speak for everyone else, but you know that the playful banter isn't playful anymore,
    "You don't know what the hell you're talking about," Lauren shakes her head with a small smile, trying to still play this off as friendly,
    "Ohh, you're right, I'm sorry. I forgot that you also hook up with random girls that you meet while taking those tequila shots," Lauren's demeanor changes and you know that things are about to get real ugly,
    "All right everyone. That's enough of that," Kyle intervenes, not wanting to hear about his daughter's sex life,
    "Babe, are you ready to go pack up?" Camila asks you. You nod your head and allow your girlfriend to pull you up off of the couch,
    "Have fun you two," Ariana says in a strange tone which instantly creeps you out,
Stop it, Y/N. You're just being paranoid now, with this thought, you and Camila exit the room and make your way towards the stairs.

    "Clothes?"
    "Check,"
    "Electronics?"
    "Check,"
    "Toiletries?"
    "Check,"
    "Kiss?"
    "No check," as soon as you say this, you feel a pair of soft lips on yours. You both begin to smile after a while which breaks the kiss apart,
    "What about now?" You lean in one more time for a quick peck and pull away,
    "Check,"
    "Ya know, I'm actually going to kind of miss this room,"
    "Why?" You question curiously,
    "Well, I've finally rewritten the terrible memories that were once held here with good ones. I kind of don't want to leave it behind again,"
    "You know we can come back whenever you want, right?"
    "You'd actually be willing to come back?" Camila questions with hope and relief in her eyes,
    "Are you serious? Of course I'm coming back, you Doof. Unless I'm not invited, then I suppose I won't be..." You trail off awkwardly, like always. Camila giggles,
    "Of course you're invited back again, you Doof. I just wasn't sure if you'd actually want to spend anymore time with my crazy ass family,"
    "I love your family! And they aren't that crazy,"
    "Hmm... Who are you trying to kid? They're nuts!"
    "Fine. Maybe they're a little crazy, but in a great way. Plus, it helps me to see where you get it from," she laughs and slaps your face gently,
    "I guess I'm a little crazy sometimes. You love it though,"
     "Yeah, I really do," you two look into each other's eyes without saying anything for a few moments, slowing down time and imprinting those beautiful chocolate brown eyes into your memory,
    "Thank you," you say while continuing to gaze into her eyes,
    "For what?"
    "For opening up to me, letting me come here, and allowing me to love you," she leans in and kisses you softly,
    "I love you," she says while smiling at you,
    "I love you too," she sticks her hand out towards you,
    "Let's go," you grab her hand and grab your bag before making your way towards the door.

    When you and Camila make it down to the living room, you see everyone gathered together with bags ready to go. You genuinely are a bit sad to see everyone bid farewell after having such an awesome weekend. You know that it's really only the beginning of your's and the family's relationship which makes you feel better. You and Camila separate and begin talking to everyone individually. You make it through saying goodbye to almost everyone, typically hearing a 'great meeting you, take care of our girl, and come back soon'. You look around the room in search of your girlfriend and come up empty handed. You figure she's probably just in the kitchen talking to somebody so you're not concerned. You see a pair of green eyes that you haven't said goodbye to yet looking at you. You decide to approach her,
    "Hey there Green Eyes,"
    "Hey there Stranger," you stand there quietly for a few seconds, thinking about the time you referred to yourself as 'That Stranger from Joe's',
    "How ya doin'?" She quietly laughs at your awkwardness,
    "I'm kind of surprised you didn't mention anything about the weather,"
    "That probably would've been my next line... Speaking of, it's pretty cloudy out there..." This time she giggles,
    "Wow. You're terrible,"
    "Made you laugh though, didn't it?" She rolls her eyes whilst continuing to smile, "anyways, it was great to see you again,"
    "Was it though?" She asks with a hint of insecurity on her face,
    "Of course it was. I may not of acted like it the entire time, but you truly are a great person to be around,"
    "Ehh... I'm all right I guess," she plays it off as a joke, but you can tell there's truth hidden in it,
    "Lauren, you're amazing. Stop doubting yourself please," you sincerely say,
    "I'm sorry, it's just kind of hard not to... I've fucked up so much in my life,"
    "We all have, Babe. The important thing is that we learn from it, grow, and move on. We can't let our past affect the present or the future too much," you say all of this while looking into her gorgeous eyes, not noticing the blush that rose on her cheeks when you referred to her as 'Babe',
    "You're right. Thank you so much, Y/N/N," she grabs you and hugs you for a few seconds which you reciprocate. You're glad that you were able to fix your relationship with the green eyed girl. Although you two won't have the type of relationship she was sort of hoping for, you two will have a really great friendship, which is what you want. You both pull away from the embrace and separate. You send her a smile, which she returns, before turning away in search for your girlfriend. You spot Camila near the door that separates the kitchen and the living room. You not-so-secretly check her out while she's standing there, probably watching you,
    Damn, she looks great in those jeans, once your eyes finally reach her's, you notice that something's wrong. Tears fill her eyes and it looks as if she's in severe pain or her best friend just died. You send her a confused and concerned look that says, 'what's wrong?' You notice a smirking Ariana standing right next to her. That's when you're able to piece it all together,
    She knows.

    An: Bam! There's chapter 14! Ohhh nooo... This can not be good folks! The truth has been set free, the tea has been spilt, the cat is out of the bag. Ok L, they get the point (Sorry I'm just talking to myself... Lol I'm a weirdo) Anyways, angst must be headed your way and let me be the first to say, I'm not a big angst fan. Who is though? (Crazy people, that's who!) It does make fics exciting though, I guess, so I might try to do it, sawrry! Let's get to da question. Q) How's this gonna go down? Is Camila gonna lose it and break up with you or is she gonna chill and hear you out?

    Typically I'd end my An's after the Chapter Q but not today! I want to talk about something, that being Shawn Mendes's new album, Illuminate. Shawn is probably my second favorite artist, (behind 5H, so I guess he's 6th but you get the point) and this new album is absolutely incredible and has been on repeat since it first dropped. Shawn's so talented and just a great person overall I feel like. I wouldn't say I'm completely obsessed with him (that's reserved for The Queens aka 5H) but I respect and appreciate him. Back to Illuminate, you should all check it out if you haven't! If you have checked it out, what's your fav song? My top fav I think is Bad Reputation but I love them all. Ok, well now I'm gonna go:)
Be happy, listen to Illuminate, Love Only!
