So this is what Los Angeles feels like.
We drove through the sunset boulevard and it felt like I was in a movie.
In a perfect city like Los Angeles where days are counted by visits to the beach and the night sky is lit by festival lights how did Camila feel so lonely?
"This is where I belong." Normani looked out of the window and looked awestruck.
"Don't fall in love with LA just yet, kids" Dean chuckled driving towards the North Ivar street.
"This city is a daydream and a nightmare if you end up in the wrong hands." He said
"What was the house number again?" Sam turned towards us as we approached a street full of gigantic mansions.
"House number....42?" Dinah texted me the house details but my phone is out of battery to even check.
"So you're not sure?" Normani turned her face towards me and showed a not impressed expression. "We travelled for 2 days....and you are not sure where she lives." Normani groaned and clutched her head in dismay.
"I MEAN PSHHHHTTT I'M SURE IT'S 42 I MEAN LIKE PSSSTT" of course it's House number 42! I know for sure.... I mean I hope so. I gave an unsure smile.
.....
"Okay kids this is it!" Dean stopped at the impala couple of blocks away from the house and we scurried out.
"Thanks guys!! We really appreciate it!!" The three of us waved as they drove away smiling. We walked straight to the mansion.
"Okay, now what?" Normani folded her arms and we turned towards the house number 42. I think I could hear my heart beat.
"That is one big house what is she a billionaire?" Chris chuckled as we walked towards the house.
What should I say to Camila when I pop into her house uninvited? Will she call the cops? Maybe I really didn't think this through. I felt my palms grow sweaty as we finally reached her front door.
"What are you waiting for? Ring the bell!" Chris nudged me by the shoulder.
"I'm scared." I whispered looking down at my fingers and wiped my sweaty palms on the back of my jeans.
"I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS SHIT! YOU RING THAT BELL AND START MAKING OUT WITH HER WHEN SHE OPENS THE DOOR. I WANT TO SEE YOUR CUTE LITTLE BABIES!" Normani stomped her feet hard and glared at me.
"Not through this way!! We'll try going to her room because if her parents find out then I'm gonna be shipped in pieces back to Miami" I gulped and we walked towards the side of the house.
"That looks like her room" I pointed toward a large white window which was left open.
"How are you so sure?" Normani raised her eyebrows questioningly.

I quickly jumped onto the Camila's roof running towards her open window.
"lolo?" A little Camila dressed up in her Banana pajamas and her hair left open.
"It's me, Camz!" I whispered before getting into the room. "Lolo!!" She giggled and tackled me into a hug.
"Were you crying?" I felt the wetness of her cheeks on my shoulders.
"no..." She looked away quickly wiping her eyes.
"Camz... I have candies!" I took out a handful of them from my back pocket and she grinned taking them from my tiny palm.
"Thank youu!" She giggled before stuffing her face with candies "Will you come everyday?" She asked chewing loudly.
"Only if you remember to leave the window open." I poked her cheeks gently.

"I just know it, Mani" I smiled and turned towards Chris.
"Time to make yourself useful." I pushed him and he shrugged. "Okay Mani on top" Chris smirked as he stood under the window.
"Why did you stop me when I was strangling him?" She rolled her eyes and stepped on his toes hard before hoisting herself onto his shoulder.
"I know you want me." Chris smiled smugly.
"Lauren could you please get this over with?!?" Mani grew frustrated and I climbed onto Chris's shoulders.
"Steady....steady... Mani..." I whispered when I perched myself onto her shoulders. "You owe me." she whispered and I gave her a wink before jumping into the room.
I looked around the room and it had Beyoncé posters all across the walls. "Wow she never seemed of that type" I whispered as I walked around the room. It was messy and had clothes everywhere.
I heard gentle snores from the bed and it made a goofy grin spread across my stupid face.
"Where is she?" I heard Chris's voice from the window and it almost gave me a heartattack.
"Did you see her yet?!" I heard mani's voice from below and I frowned.
"Guys I need privacy!" I walked towards the window and Chris tried to look past me.
"wow she's got a nice ass!! It's poking out of the blanket!!" Chris had a dreamy expression on his face which made me wanna push him.
"Chris that's it!" I grabbed the curtains to close it on his face.
"Look at her blonde hair..." he was practically drooling.
WAIT WHAT? before I could even turn back I felt a strong blow on the back of my head and everything turned black.

"Did I kill her?" I heard a different voice in the background.
"IS SHE DEAD??" I heard Chris's enthusiastic voice in the background.
"You are not so lucky." I mumbled and sat up slowly. I felt a throbbing ache near the back of my head and I groaned clutching it hardly.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm sorry!!" I opened my eyes towards the origin of the sound.
It was Dinah and I recognized her immediately from the video Camz sent me.
"Dinah?" I squinted my eyes because my vision was still blurry because of the pain.
"Sup?" She smiled and handed me a pack of ice. "You tried to kill me!!" I gasped.
"Ahw come on dawg!!! If I see an stranger in my room talking to another stranger what do you think I'd do? Serve drinks! No! I'd take my baseball bat and make a home run!" She showed a swinging action and mouthed sorry when she saw my glare.
"What time is it?" I tried to get up from the bed and dinah helped me stand steady on my feet.
"It's 11:50pm." Chris replied getting up from the ground.
I froze when I heard the time. It's almost time!! It's almost time!! I quickly darted towards Dinah's door ignoring the numbness on the back of my head.
Ignoring the look of both of her parents face when they saw a couple of strangers running out of their house.
"I'm almost there!! I'm almost there!!" I saw dinah point towards house 42 and ran towards it side.
Chris quickly stood underneath and I wasted no time I stood on his shoulders and jumped towards the ledge.
I felt the adrenaline rush through my veins when I heard everyone gasp underneath me. I hoisted myself upwards with all my strength and I fell into the room with a loud thump.
"Lolo?" I heard a soft voice call for me in the dark.
