Girl Crush

Chapter 28

For the next two days, Lauren and Camila just spent time together, taking in each other's presence and enjoying it. After spending an "eventful"(😏) New Years Eve together, Lauren woke up on the first day of 2017 feeling sadder than ever. She pulled the covers around her bare body and used her arms to find Camila's body. She pulled Camila into her side and held her there.

Camila's eyes fluttered open and she turned herself around to face Lauren. She had a sad expression on her face, and Lauren's heart broke.

"Do you really have to leave?" Camila whispered m sadly. Lauren reached her hand out and stroked Camila's cheek affectionately.

"We'll see each other in three months. That's better than six months," Lauren said. Camila sighed and cuddled back into Lauren. They laid on the bed together for a while, knowing that they wouldn't be together again for another few months.

"Lauren! Get ready, we have to leave in twenty minutes!" Clara shouted from downstairs. Lauren kissed Camila's cheek and got up to get dressed. She didn't care about what she looked like, so she found her clothes from the night before that were thrown about the room. The bed was cold for Camila and she felt tears rush to her eyes. Once Lauren was dressed she sat down next to Camila.

"Don't cry baby, be strong," Lauren said softly while wiping away Camila's tears. As much as she wanted to cry herself, she wanted to be strong for Camila. Another tear slid down Camila's cheek, followed by another, and another until she was sobbing. Lauren held Camila against her chest and let her cry.

"Lauren! Time to go!" Clara yelled. Camila quickly got up and put last night's clothes on as well, and followed Lauren down the stairs. Sofi ran up to Lauren, and Lauren scooped her up into her arms.

"I'll miss you, Lolo. But I can't wait until we see you again," Sofi said sadly. Lauren felt physical pain in her chest. She kissed Sofi's cheek and hugged her body tightly before putting her down. Lauren handed her bag to her mom who brought it to the car. Lauren stood in the doorway with Camila. Lauren wrapped her arms around the body she knew so well and held her close.

"Be strong for me Camz," Lauren whispered. Camila lifted her face out of Lauren's chest and kissed her girlfriend sadly. The kiss had more meaning than most of theirs had usually, and Lauren could feel Camila's pain. They pulled away, but Lauren left her hand resting on Camila's cheek.

"I love you, Lolo," Camila cried. Lauren let one lone tear fall down her cheek.

"I love you too, Camz," Lauren said back. She hugged Camila tightly one last time, inhaling deeply. She would miss this. She already missed it.

"Please don't go," Camila sobbed. Lauren couldn't hold back her tears anymore. She let the droplets fall from her eyes and on to Camila.

"I'm sorry baby, I have to," Lauren said. Her mom looked at her, saying that they had to go. Lauren placed one last kiss on Camila's lips.

"Just saying, when you come back, I'm going to fuck you senseless," Lauren whispered seductively into Camila's ear. Camila turned red and she bit her bottom lip. She kissed Lauren's cheek and Lauren walked away slowly. She left the house and didn't turn around, knowing that if she did she would just run right back to Camila.

The ride to the airport was completely silent. Lauren wasn't crying as much as she was the first time Camila left. She made sure to turn her phone off so she didn't look at any Camila pictures.

"Thank you, Mom. That was the greatest thing you've ever done for me," Lauren said. Her mom smiled sadly at her.

"I knew that you really liked Camila before, but after this week I know that you love her. Treat her well, Lauren," her mom said. Lauren smiled slightly and closed her eyes. She remembered everything they had done that past week.
