"I want you Camila"

In that moment I had no words, it was as if I suddenly forgot to form a sentence let alone use words. My throat was dry and all I could do was try to not choke on the the saliva I was trying to swallow down my throat. I look down and our hands are interlocked, like I've seen them many times before...like I'd always imagined them to would be. We're two hearts in one home, it's hard because we use to always argue I'm scared because this is just going to continue getting harder..we're both stubborn I know..but..she's my home.

"Camz?" She looks to me bringing be back to reality from my inner thoughts "I know we were young, and I know I've been distant but I always think about you and how we don't speak enough...I know it's hard but..I just need you to be patient with me." it looks like she may be having some inner thoughts also going on in her head. I see her begin to speak again but I cut her off.

"-Can I show you something?" I ask nervously. She breaths a sigh of relief "Yes" she says smiling. I look around at the studio we're still standing in and I pick one of the first guitars I ever had...one that was a gift from Lauren actually, for my 21st birthday. She notices this too and smiles as I motion for her to take a seat in front of me.

"I wrote this not too long ago...after you and Emma left LA actually." I'm nervous as I pick up the guitar and place it on my lap..I run my fingers up the neck of the guitar and strum it quickly to make sure it's in tune for the song. I adjust the chords a bit and then clear my throat signaling I'm about to begin.

Sweet creature
Had another talk about where it's going wrong
But we're still young
We don't know where we're going but we know where we belong


No, we started
Two hearts in one home
It's hard when we argue
We're both stubborn, I know

But oh
Sweet creature, sweet creature
Wherever I go, you bring me home
Sweet creature, sweet creature
When I run out of rope, you bring me home


Sweet creature
We're running through the garden, oh, where nothing bothered us
But we're still young
I always think about you and how we don't speak enough


No, we started
Two hearts in one home
I know it's hard, we argue
We're both stubborn, I know


But oh
Sweet creature, sweet creature
Wherever I go, you bring me home
Sweet creature, sweet creature
When I run out of rope, you bring me home


I know when we started
Just two hearts in one home
It gets harder when we argue
We're both stubborn, I know


But oh
Sweet creature, sweet creature
Wherever I go, you bring me home
Sweet creature, sweet creature
When I run out of rope, you bring me home
You bring me home


I finish the fingerpicking of the guitar and let the tune finish echoing in the room. When we get done talking I definitely need to remember to thank Lauren on the this room again because the acoustics sound amazing in here. I set the instrument aside and wait for Lauren to speak, she still hasn't said anything she's just staring- no she's admiring. I'd know that look anywhere.

"You're amazing Camila" she finally says "You're the most amazing person, mother, and artist that I know." she says as she wipes her tears and moves towards me, I meet her halfway and we take our previous position again. Hands interlocked and as close as we can be without our faces actually touching each others. "I'm sorry if I ever made you feel like you couldn't talk to me or that you had to hold anything in. I'm always going to be there for you, to support you, to catch you when you fall." 

It's my turn to cry because I suddenly feel Lauren's gently let go of mine and she caresses my face and gently wipes my tears away. I lean into her hand and close my eyes for a second, this is how I've wanted her and I to be for so long and to have her say these things to me after so long is overwhelming. "I know exactly where you belong, you belong right here with me. Come home Camila."

I look at her emerald eyes to confirm if what I heard was true and when I see nothing but love in her eyes I knew that I wasn't dreaming. This is real life, I take in a breath before I lean in and capture her lips. I wrap my arms around her neck while her's intertwine behind my back, she pulls me in as close as possible and we still don't think it's enough. Our lips move in sync with one another dancing the same dance they have been for years now not one misstep. Lauren takes the lead pushing me back a bit until I feel myself hit the table behind me, she leans down a bit taking hold of the back of both my thighs signaling for me to jump. I instantly wrap my legs around Lauren as she gently has me pressed against the wall, hands roaming and chests rising at a rapid pace. Her lips move down to my neck and she starts transitioning between sucking and biting a bit. I feel her begin to slow down a bit, I slowly bring my hand to her neck and pull her towards my lips again silently asking her to look at me. When she does we just admire one another for a minute, it doesn't bother either of us to just stop and look at each other. "You're beautiful Camz" she whispers, I smile and try to hide my blush a bit she giggles at me and kisses my temple before I look back at her once again "Bring me home Lauren."

With that we expressed everything feeling that was coursing through our bodies that night. We made love to each other two,three,four times that night. We couldn't get enough of each other, we made love, cuddled, talked, and then did it all over again. I fell asleep in the arms of the one person I can't live without, I'm not sure what time it is when the sleep starts to wear off and I'm beginning to stretch I lean to my right to cuddle into Lauren when I suddenly don't feel anything there. I open my eyes and find myself still in the studio, wrapped up in the sheets alone. I look around and see the candles are out and my clothes are off to the side from our activities of the night before. I don't even get a chance to wonder where she is because I suddenly see her walk through the door.

"Hey! I didn't want to wake you, you looked so peaceful" she says as she makes her way to our makeshift bed and leans down to give me a kiss on the lips while gently placing a piece of hair behind my ear "Good morning!" I smile into the kiss my eyes still closed when she pulls away..she giggles at me and kisses me repeatedly until I laugh along with her. "Where are the girls?" I ask "My parents took them for the day, it's just you and I chicken!" I smile at the cute nickname, oh how I've missed this girl. "C'mon, get dressed" she kisses my lips again before getting up before suddenly stopping "Actually no, don't get dressed-" she smirks "just get up, your breakfast is getting cold." she winks before leaving the room giving me a minute to myself. I couldn't stop smiling even if I wanted to, I've got my girl I sigh happily thinking back on what we've been through and about last night. The song, her words, our kiss, her actions just now. I love her, now more than ever. "I'm never letting you go." I whisper softly.
