Ethereal

Thirty three

A loud bang startled Camila out of her sleep. She sat up and observed the room around her. Normani must have heard it too, she was sitting up.

"I'll go look." Camila offered.

She heard the loud noise again but this time she could hear where it was coming from.

The small girl groaned and walked towards the door. She looked through the peep hole and saw a disheveled Lauren on the other side. Camila cautiously opened the door. Lauren stumbled forward a little bit before catching her balance.

"I didn't have the key." Lauren looked like a lost puppy. Her hair was thrown messily into a ponytail and she was in a pair of Lucy's sweatpants. Her mascara was running down her face, maybe she had been crying.

"That's because I have it." Camila answered in a small voice. "What are you doing? It's 3 in the morning."

"I wanted to see you Camila. And also, this is my hotel room too."

"Dinah and Ally are sleeping." Camila whispered, trying to keep her out of the room.

"Okay and?" Lauren shot back.

"You're fucking drunk!" Camila slightly raised her voice.

"Let me in the fucking hotel Camila." Lauren practically growled.

"Who is it?" Normani questioned, standing up from her bed.

Lauren grabbed Camila's arms with a tight grip. The smaller girl winced in pain, trying to shove Lauren's hands off her.

"Lauren please. You're hurting me." The younger girl begged, attempting to squirm out of Lauren's grasp.

Lauren let go and scoffed and pushed Camila backwards. Hard. The amount of force Lauren used was enough to knock the small girl down.

Camila's head smacked off the door and she fell to the hard floor of the hotel room. The small girl gasped and felt panic rise in her chest. She immediately got flashbacks from what her dad did years ago. The action caught her off guard, she would have never expected Lauren to do that.

"Lauren Michelle!" Normani screamed.

Lauren could've swore she saw Camila's heart break inside her chest.

Normani stormed over to Lauren and grabbed her by the front of her shirt. Lauren yanked out of Normanis grasp.

"You can't push me Lauren." Camila's voice was slightly trembling.

"Shut the fuck up Camila." Lauren warned.

"How much did you drink before you left Lucy's house?" Normani questioned, crossing her arms.

"A lot. Not that it's any of your business."

"It became my business when you came in here and pushed Camila!" The dark skinned girl yelled.

Lauren turned around to face camila and clenched her jaw. Her face turned red as she took a step towards the smaller girl.

"Lauren, you need to get away from her." Dinah warned, she shot up out of bed and over towards the drunk girl.

Ally was awake by now as well, but she was just watching in fear.

"Why is it any of your business either?" Lauren sassed back, slurring her words.

"Did you push her?" Dinah pointed towards camila, who was sitting in the corner, holding her head.

Lauren didn't answer. She only chuckled and tried to pry Normani's hands off of her.
