Camila nervously fixed her shirt for possibly the tenth time. She stared at herself in the mirror before shaking her head. "No, this doesn't look good." She said before running back into her bathroom and changing for the fourth time. Shawn rolled his eyes at his best friends' actions. "Mila, that one looked good! Why are you so nervous?" Shawn whined. Camila came out of the bathroom with a glare. "Because Shawn!! Lauren is coming over today and I have to look good!" She said frustrated at not being able to pick an outfit. "You know what, go sit down. I'll pick your outfit." Shawn demanded, Camila quickly made her way to the edge of her bed and sat down looking up at Shawn expectantly. Shawn turned away from her and looked at her closet. He smirked to himself and turned back to look at Camila. "Easy. You gotta make her want you. Well, more than she probably already does." Shawn said. "Here." He came back and tossed a dress at Camila. She'd never seen this one before. "Shawn...where did you get this?" Camila asked examining the black dress. "Doesn't matter. Put it on, I wanna see you in it." Shawn pushed her towards the bathroom. He waited for 10 minutes before becoming impatient. "Mila? What the fuck is taking so long?!" Shawn yelled from the couch. He heard the door open and smiled proudly at his choice.
"Damn mamacita, Lauren is not going to be able to get her hands of you, just don't do it on this couch ok? I actually like this couch." Shawn joked. Camila instantly smacked him on the chest. "SHAWN. We are not gonna...do it." Camila said looking at herself in the mirror in content. "Mhm, sure jan." Shawn said. "Oh by the way, everything is set up. All you need is your Lauren." Shawn added. Camila let out a nervous breathe. "Alright. Have to text her now."

Ok, I'm going to go get ready 😊Lauren locked her phone and slightly panicked. How the hell is she going to find the perfect outfit. Anything she could possibly think of just wasn't sexy enough. She needed help. Kordei help. But how was she going to get Normani's help without telling her. After contemplating for a few moments she just decided that she needed her best friends help so she quickly dialed Normani's number. After a minute of ringing Normani's voice was heard "Lo?" Lauren sighed in relief. "Mani I need your help" "What? Are you hurt? In danger? Do i need to kill someone?!" Mani quickly asked. "No, no Mani I'm fine. I need your help with an outfit." Lauren cleared up and glared at her phone when her best friend's laugh was all she heard in return. "What? Since when do you care about what you wear?" Mani asked in disbelief while still slightly laughing. "Ok, now I regret calling you." Lauren mumbled annoyed and about to hang up before Normani screamed NO into the phone causing Lauren to become hearing impaired. "Geez Mani." Lauren complained. "Okay, so why do you need a perfect outfit?" Mani asked. "Because....I'm going on a date today. And I only have an hour to get ready." Lauren said, making Normani gasp. "OH MY GOD!! Is it Brad?!?!" Normani asked excitedly. Lauren sighed, it was now or never. "No Mani, I don't like him like that." "What?! How? He's the cutest guy in our grade!! What other guy would you rather have over him??" Normani asked. "Mani it's not a boy" Lauren barely let out. Her heart was thumping a mile a minute. For a few seconds she heard silence and it freaked her out, she was on the verge of breaking down from her anxiety at the moment, until she heard a small chuckle. "Lo, why didn't you just say that? I'm happy for you." were the words that followed. A few happy tears escaped Lauren's eyes. "Thank you Mani, but please don't tell the other girls." Lauren pleaded. "Why not? They are the most understanding people we know Lo." Normani asked confused by the request. "I know, i'm just not ready to tell them. And I want to be the one to tell them." Lauren explained. "Okay, well then who's this mystery girl of yours huh?" Normani asked teasingly. "I can't really tell you much. Other than she's just....really amazing." Lauren let out a content sigh. "And, I really like her." Lauren added. "Awww Lo!!! I've never heard you like this! I really want to meet her." Normani confessed, feeling immensely happy for her best friend. "Maybe one day, but right now it would be....complicated." Lauren admitted. "How so?" The question Lauren dreaded. "Because she's a little...older." Lauren allowed herself to say. "Ooooo, a scandalous relationship!! I LOVE IT!" Normani screamed into the phone excitedly...leaving Lauren deaf..AGAIN. "Geez Mani, calm the fuck down." Lauren chuckled at her best friend. "Okay, we have to find you the sexiest outfit for today, you need to get laid." Normani already started making inappropriate jokes. Lauren knew she was going to regret this. "Alright whatever, we have uh....45 minutes." Lauren said looking down at her watch. "Awesome, I only need 40." Normani said before hanging up and gathering her things quickly before making her way to Lauren's house at an illegal speed.
