Camila stepped out of the airport bathroom. She had landed in Miami no longer then 15 minutes ago, she stopped by the bathroom to freshen up. Camila walked a down a hallway and then stopped, remembering she had promised to call Lauren. Camila reached her phone in her back pocket to call Lauren, but instead her hand was met with a wad of cash. Camila pulled it out and observed the $40. She furrowed her eyebrows and looked up in front of her, the food court was right in front of her.

Camila shoved the cash back in her pocket and reached in the opposite one, pulling her iPhone out and clicking on Lauren's contact number.

"Thank god. I've been sitting by my phone since I got home." Lauren expressed, sighing in relief. Camila heard shuffling and then a door shut.

"We landed an hour late." Camila observed. She hadn't noticed before, she had slept the whole plane ride.

"Did you just land?" Lauren questioned.

"Yea, a few minutes ago. It feels good to be home." Camila sighed.

"I'll let you go, don't forget your luggage. I love you." Lauren reminded. Camila's face flushed in embarrassment. She would have totally forgot to get her luggage from the baggage claim if Lauren hadn't of just reminded her. But Lauren didn't have to know that.

"No stay on." Camila responded.

"Oh and camila," Lauren paused and sighed. Camila raised her eyebrows. "Please eat something." Lauren begged, clearly exhausted.

"Of course. For you." Camila responded, not wanted to make the older girl upset.

"No. for yourself." Lauren argued.

"Can you please stay on the phone with me. I don't really want to be alone. This is a really big airport." Camila asked. The small girl's face lit up when she got a FaceTime request from Lauren, who she had saved in her phone as "Lolo". She accepted.

Lauren's hair was a mess and she had on comfy lounge clothes. But Camila couldn't help but feel butterflies looking at Lauren. Even if she was the whole way across the country at the moment. Her bright green eyes were enticing.

"Wow. You look hot." Lauren turned away from the camera for one second, but she could practically hear the smirk in Camila's voice.

"Stop it you flirt. And I could say the same about you." Lauren took notice of Camila's appearance. She no longer looked like the sad, tired Camila she had met at the airport. She had put on some makeup in the bathroom. If Lauren was being honest, Camila's makeup looked red carpet ready. She never understood how camila could do her own makeup that good. Lauren could barely put on her own eyeliner.

Camila blushed in response, her face lighting up with a smile. Lauren couldn't help but smile along with her. Camila's smile was one of the most mesmerizing things that she's ever seen. The way she smiled with her teeth and didn't give a half assed smile. It was always genuine. She smiled with her eyes. And Lauren was glad she was it more times then not lately.

"You're in Normani's room." Camila took notice, observing the room around Lauren.

"Yeah, we were watching mean girls. But she fell asleep." Lauren pouted, turning the camera to face Normani, who was sprawled out on the bed with her head in Lauren's lap.

"Watch it jauregui. You know I don't like sharing you." Camila warned playfully, but was kind of being serious.

Camila kept walking while facetiming Lauren. She earned weird looks from strangers. I mean she was talking to a phone that she was holding in front of her face.
