*TRIGGER WARNING*

As much as Lauren wanted to stay away from Camila, she simply couldn't

This time she had a plan. A solid plan so Camila would come back to her and forgive her. As embarrassing as it was, Lauren found out that she couldn't live without the girl's presence anymore.

There was a winter fair tonight and even though Lauren had never been allowed to go, she'd seen the lights of the ferris wheel each year. She always wondered what it would be like to be up there, if the view would be as beautiful as she imagined.

There was no one she wanted to explore this with more than Camila. And Lauren for a fact, knew that Camila was obsessed with the fair for she had heard the girl try to convince her boyfriend to bring her there each year.

He never did.

She didn't know why but it seemed like he had other things to do on that particular date each year.

Lauren would, Lauren would take her there and give her the best night she would ever have. She had gone to Ally and the pastor's daughter had agreed to let Lauren borrow her car for the night. She had done more than agree actually, she had screamed in excitement and wiggled her eyebrows suggestively. Why and how her friend knew something was going on she didn't know. Albeit, Lauren kept her mouth shut. To Ally's dismay, she said they were just friends.

Like she had found herself many times before, Lauren was climbing down the waterpipe. It was a wonder the poor thing still worked and hadn't broken.

It was ten o' clock and everyone in the Jauregui house had gone to sleep. Still Lauren wouldn't take any risk waking them as she tip toed through the garden. She crossed the road to Camila's house and walked to the side, knowing that that was where Camila's room was located.

She picked some little rocks from the ground and started aiming them at the girl's window. After hitting the window succesfully  several times without getting a reaction, Lauren figured she'd had to get her attention in another way.

Sadly, there was no waterpipe here to climb up to her window. Lauren also couldn't scream for Camila to lay down her hair like in Rapunzel to haul herself up.

She grinned at her own thoughts as she walked to the back of the house to look for a rational solution. Her eyes scanned the garden and they finally fell on a ladder positioned against the wall.

She tried lifting the ladder but it was way too heavy for her to carry so she dragged it back to Camila's window. When she finally had the ladder positioned against her friend's window she was ashamed to admit that she was out of breath.

Carefully, Lauren climbed up the ladder step by step.

Luckily, the lights were on and Camila's window stood ajar. She quietly took the hook of the window and pushed it open further so she could climb through it.

It was absolutely freezing in Camila's room, was she mental keeping her window open in the middle of winter? Eventhough Lauren was sure she made enough noise for Camila to notice her she still didn't get a reaction.

She found Camila on her bed, covered by her blankets, headphones resting on her head. Her eyes were squeezed shut and her beautiful lips were slightly opened. Lauren almost thought she was sleeping but the lights were on and Lauren could see the blankets move.

''Camz.'' Lauren said.

She still didn't get a reply but she was biting her lip now.

''Camila!'' Lauren said again, louder this time.

Camila's eyes shot open and she quickly yanked her hands out from under the duvet. Her eyes were wide and pupils dilated. Her cheeks turned a furious tint of red. She looked so ashamed as if she'd been caught doing something inapropriate. Lauren smirked.
