Not That Kinda Girl (camren)

Chapter 13

It has been an hour and Camila has definitely noticed how Lauren has been very distant. And she wasn't liking it at all.

In fact, she lowkey wanted Lauren to be all over her- as always. It made her feel happy.

Camila had even tried to start it. She creeped her hand towards Lauren's and tried to make some contact with her while they watched the movie.

But, once their hands made contact, Lauren would pull her hand away as if Camila was fire.

Camila frowned and put her hand back in her lap. She looked up at Lauren to find that the girl had such a bored expression on her face.

Lauren felt Camila staring and looked over, making eye contact with Camila. Camila looked away and heard Lauren sigh.

"Guys, I'm fucking tired. I'm going to go. Dinah, can you drop Camila off at her house?" Lauren asked, getting up.

"Uh... yeah Lauser. Sure." Dinah said, raising an eyebrow at Camila.

"Thanks. I'll see you guys." Lauren said, walking towards the door. Normani glanced at Camila and narrowed her eyes at her.

Normani motioned her hands to Lauren and mouthed to Camila, 'go after her!'

Camila scrambled up from where she was sitting and instantly went after Lauren who was putting her jacket on.

"Wait, Lauren!" Camila called out. Lauren glanced at Camila before rolling her eyes and going for the door handle.

"Lauren," Camila called out sternly. Lauren opened the door and made her way outside. Camila jogged after her and pulled Lauren back by her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Camila asked the green-eyed girl.

Lauren grabbed Camila's hand that was placed on her shoulder and took it off, "Nothing. Just tired, Camila."

"No, I can sense that something's wrong, Lauren." Camila said, placing her hand on Lauren's shoulder again.

Lauren turned around, making Camila's hand fall off of her shoulder and she clenched her jaw, "I'm just tired. Can you leave me alone now?"

Camila frowned at her words and Lauren sighed upon seeing Camila's facial expression.

Lauren bit her lip and spoke out again, "I'm sorry if that came out harsh. I just... want to be alone? Can you respect that?"

"Yeah," Camila said looking down, and sighing.

"Make sure Dinah gets you home safely. Have a good night, Camila." Lauren finally said before slipping out the door. Lauren was upset at Camila's revelations of her not liking the green-eyed girl.

But, in the moment of seeing how down Camila was, Lauren knew how selfish it was of her to be mad at Camila for not liking her. Camila was free to like whoever she liked.

Camila walked back to the girls and plopped down on the couch.

"Guys, I lied." Camila exhaled. "I do like her. I like Lauren."

The girls gave Camila a knowing look which slightly made Camila feel even more down.

"I tried to tell you. Denial isn't just a river in Egypt." Dinah said, shaking her head.

"Fuck, I messed up." Camila fell back onto the couch with her palms on her forehead.

"Yeah, you did." Dinah said then felt Normani hit the back of her head. "Ouch, Mani!" Dinah scowled.

"Please never become a therapist." Ally shook her head.

"Look, we are her friends so we have to tell her the truth." Dinah pointed out.
