"You almost ready?" The brown girl asked standing by their room door, looking at Lauren as she fixed her hair in the mirror.

It was the fourth week in June, getting dangerously close to Lauren's birthday. For her birthday they planned to head to the beach, nothing too special but the beach is what was done in the summer time. Plus alone time a relaxation never sounded better at a time like this.

They still had a lot on their plates, of course with Normani's battle with Idris and the dance company and Lauren starting at a new job. But somehow they both had a way of making the other forget about their problems.

That's until they had to face them.

The weather was hot and muggy, the kind of hot where you felt it through the window, but this always happened around this time of the year and both girls were used to the heat because of Texas. New York was nothing in comparison. Normani stood in the doorway in her dark denim jeans and white low-cut shirt displaying her perfect breasts, as she waited for Lauren's answer. She planned on grabbing a blazer just in case the shirt was a little too much for where they had to go today.

Lauren only said a quick agitated yes to the question and immediately Normani knew that she was feeling self conscious about her hair today. Whenever she wasn't feeling her hair her fingers were always in it, throughout the whole day.

Normani always noticed. She had always thought it was the most adorable thing. Just standing there, her kind traveled back to a memory. She remembered when nine year old Lauren freaked out about her hair during picture day because the photographer told her to stop touching it. Normani was in line giggling at her but Lauren was just panicking. She could never fathom not knowing what it looked like. So Normani helped as often as she could.

The brown girl walked over and wrapped herself around the backside of Lauren's body. "You look beautiful" she whispered and placed a kiss on her neck.

"Thanks" Lauren responded but still fidgeted with her hair in the mirror. This was a total different reaction than how Lauren reacted whenever Normani usually wrapped her arms around her. She would usually melt and stop doing whatever she's doing. Maybe Lauren was worried about what today would hold as well.

Normani sighed and turned her girlfriend around. She reached her hand up and used her pointy acrylic nail to find the perfect part and smooth out the Latinas naturally wavy beautiful hair. "There" she smiled softly.

Lauren turned back around to the mirror and it was perfect. She never knew how Normani knew her hair better than she knew it. "Thanks baby" Lauren spoke quickly, now digging in the drawer for jeans as well. They both wanted to wear shorts, but since they were going to meet with the lawyer for the first time they decided to deal with the heat. Lauren grabbed a pair of jeans and spoke "And yes I'm almost ready, give me a few. Sorry I'm taking so long"

Normani let out a deep sigh and backed up from Lauren a little more giving her space as her hands found their way into her pockets, watching her as she dressed "I'm honestly upset that you're missing work Lo" Normani pouted looking at her through the mirror "I told you I would be fine"

Lauren turned around to face the brown girl again "Well guess what" she said pecking her lips and then pulling away "I don't care"

"Lauren" Normani groaned frustrated.
