Chapter 45

Lauren and Camila have graduated high school and been accepted into schools in New York. Camila continues in her singing and is accepted at Julliard.
*Camila's POV*
*first day of college at Julliard*
I cannot believe this day has come. I've worked so hard to get here and to have the most amazing girl by my side was just a bonus. Picking up on a talent later in life can sometimes mean it's too late to make a career of it but I somehow pulled that off. Getting the money together was hard and every night of my adolescence has been filled with venue seeking, street preforming, and working a day job on top of that but I somehow managed with minimum loans taken out (that's a joke, I'll be in debt for the rest of my life) but I cannot forget- I always made time for Lauren. Wherever I was she was in the stands cheering for me. Taking pictures. I'd take her back stage all alone, it was like being a hot rocker with the same hot groupie. Even though there were only about 3-10 people at each show.
"Lo, is that box too heavy for u?"
I yell across the parking lot to my struggling girlfriend.
"No..." she heaves.
"Let me help u, babe" I giggle as I jog over to her, dorm key in hand. I couldn't help but stride towards my dorm, I haven't been since orientation and I've missed it ever since.
"Can u believe this?" Lauren exclaimed.
"We're here."
"I couldn't have done it all without you" I pecked her cheek. "Now I'll take this you take another box that's a little lighter"
"Demanding..." Lauren rolled her eyes.
"Sorry sorry sorry I'm excited and overwhelmed" I gasped for air. I've been up all night thinking about this day for months. What if I didn't fit in? These people have been working at their talent since birth and I, a little over a year. The few people I've met through group chats and meet ups have seemed nice but that fake kind of nice where they know they're better than you. I found a roommate who (I hope) wasn't that fake kind of nice. Her name is Rose and she's a ballet dance major. Lauren of course approves of her or else I wouldn't have gone any further. I wonder if she's here yet? I need to set my worries aside and focus on the task at hand- moving in and spending the small amount of time I have with my girl.
