That night after dinner Zoe, Dinah and Ethan picked out some movies and headed to the living room. Normani instead headed out and went over to get Lauren.

The two girls would often do this mostly when something was bothering them. It started back in high school after Normani moved in with the Jauregui's. They would get together and have a drink and talk about what was bothering them.

Lauren and Camila were in the kitchen finishing up the dishes when suddenly there was a knock at the door.

Camila went to answer it and was a little surprised to find Normani at her door step.

"Hello Normani,"

"Hey Mila," she sighed

Camila knew something was up, Normani only called her Mila when it was serious.

"Do you want to come in?"

"Actually I was kind of hoping to steal your wife for a couple of hours."

Camila knew that something was bothering the brunette and needed to talk. She and Dinah never knew where or what they did they only knew that nine times out of ten they would come home drunk and horny.

"I'll ask her."

Normani just nodded

Camila headed back into the dining room

"Lauren, Normani's at the door I think she needs to talk,"

Lauren just nodded and placed the last plate in the cupboard. She grabbed her keys, her coat and gave Camila a quick kiss on the lips.

"Try not to be home late?" Camila asked. "Okay babe."

"Hey Mani,"

"Hey Laur."

Lauren closed the door behind her as the two walked down the street together. They would always go to the same spot. Down by the playground in the small park that was a few blocks away.

They took a seat on the swings, Normani pulled out a bottle of vodka she took a swig then handed it over to Lauren.

"So what's up?"

"It's Ethan,"

"What about him?"

"He's so sad." Normani replied with a sniffle

"What? Why?" Lauren asked concerned.

"He- he thinks no one likes him because he doesn't have any friends, he hates going to school and he even told me he wished that he was never born and he won't tell me why. He just said that I wouldn't understand because I'm a girl."

Lauren sat there a little shocked.

"I don't know what to do Lauren, I don't know how to help my little boy. What kind of mother doesn't know how to help their child?" Normani added

"Mani, you're a good mother."

"Doesn't feel like it. You should have seen him Laur, he looked so defeated. It broke my heart to see him like that."

The two women spent the next few hours chatting and drinking until they decided they should go home. They stumbled back to their houses and Normani giggled when Lauren fell over just before she got to her front door.

The brunette somehow found her way up the stairs and into her bedroom. Dinah was unfortunately asleep. Normani tried to be quiet as she got undressed but what she thought was quite was just not. Dinah slowly opened her eyes and tried not to laugh at the sight of her wife tangled up in her shirt with her pants around her knees. After trying unsuccessfully to get undressed Normani sighed and just flopped onto the bed. This time Dinah did laugh out loud.
