Girl Crush

Chapter 20

Lauren and Camila had little time to their selves, and the other girls showed up shorty after Lauren's shower. Camila was sitting on the couch, and Lauren's head was resting in her lap. She was trying to sleep, until her friends knocked on the door.

Lauren gave Camila her best puppy dog eyes, trying to make her stay sitting down. Camila tried to fight them, but lost.

"It's open!" Camila screamed. The door practically flew off the hinges as Dinah swung it open.

"Sorry to interrupt your 'party'," Normani laughed as she followed behind Dinah. Ally calmly walked in and sat on the couch with Lauren and Camila, while Dinah and Normani sat on the floor.

"How you feeling Laur?" Ally asked. Lauren slightly shrugged.

"Ok I guess. I can't do anything but stare at a wall because of my concussion, but still ok," she said. Ally smiled sympathetically. Dinah and Normani were in their own conversation about a girl in their school that was annoying.

"How's it been without me at school? I bet it's been terrible," Lauren teased. Camila nodded.

"It's been weird to not have a familiar face there every morning, but at least you'll be back Monday,"
Normani pointed out, now paying attention.

Lauren sat up so she could actually see her friends, which unfortunately made her shirt slide off her shoulder. Dinah, who was also now paying attention, noticed the hickey first.

"Uh, Lauren?" Dinah said, trying to hold back her laughter. Lauren looked at her confused. Dinah tapped Normani's shoulder and pointed her vision to Lauren's neck. Lauren watched her eyes get wide, and she burst out laughing.

"Lauren, what's that on your neck?" Normani said between laughing fits. She immediately remembered that she didn't have time to cover up the hickey that Camila had left. Her face was bright red. She looked at Camila to see that the smaller girl looked mortified.

Ally had gotten up now to see the mark on Lauren's neck, and practically screamed when she saw it.

"Lauren Michelle Jauregui!" Ally yelled. Lauren threw her hands up in defense.

"I didn't make the mark, my head doesn't bend that way!" Lauren yelled back. All heads turned to Camila, who was extremely embarrassed.

"Damn Mila," Normani said with a laugh. Camila's face was redder than Lauren's. She buried her face into her girlfriend's shirt to try and hide the embarrassment.

"Nasty ass," Dinah mumbled to herself while getting up to find food. Ally's face was utterly shocked though.

"Oh my god, who'd you all think it was that left that mark? I'm dating Camila, couldn't you put the pieces together?" Lauren laughed.

"Camila, you made that?" Ally said. Camila nodded. Ally muttered things under her breath and gave a disapproving look to the both of them.

For the next few hours the girl's sat and talked about things like school, life, and their general issues. It was pretty innocent until Dinah asked one random question.

"What's it like to kiss a girl?" She said calmly. Camila, who was talking a sip of her water, practically choked on it. She went into a coughing fit. Everyone else in the room was just shocked.

"Dinah, why do you want to know?" Lauren asked. Dinah shrugged and didn't seem fazed at all.

"I don't know, I just want to know what it's like. Like, is it different?" She answered lazily. All eyes were on Lauren and Camila. Camila had stopped coughing enough to hear Dinah.
