Can We Trust You? (Fifth Harmony fanfic)

CHAPTER 7

CAMILA'S POV.

We all decided to spilt up so we would find Avery faster. We split up into groups of 2 and one group of 3. Me, Quinn and Normani were to look on the 2nd floor. Ally and Kat were going to look in the food court. Lauren and Madison were going to look on the right side of the bottom floor, while Dinah and Riley were going on the right side of the bottom floor since the bottom floor was much bigger then the top. Me, Mani and Quinn made our way up to the top floor.

"So how along have you known the girls?" I asked curiously

"Ummm... I've known Kat and Madison since I was little probably 5. I met Riley a little latter probably 6.... and then Avery I met last at like 7 years old." Quinn said

"Why did Avery and Riley come latter?" Normani asked Quinn

Quinn looked uncomfortable.

"That's not my story to tell." She said hesitantly

I looked at Normani. She shrugged and turned back to her phone.

"So do you guys have any nicknames for each other?" I asked

"I call Avery Squirrel sometimes, I call Kat, kitty. Madison obviously is Maddie. Riley I call Rie-Rie or Riceball." Quinn said smiling

My and Normani laughed.

"Why do you call Avery Squirrel?" I said laughing still

"She's always so fidgety and like always moving. Kinda like a squirrel." Quinn said laughing also.

"Do you all have weird nicknames for each other?" Normani asked.

"Yea, Kat calls me and Riley midgets. Everyone calls Riley Riceball. When I call Avery a squirrel she calls me a sloth, Avery calls Kat a hurricane when she's mad, because her real name is Katrina. Yeah, there are others but I can't think of them all" She says smiling at the ground.

"So I take it Avery isn't very smart." Normani said laughing.

Quinn shook her head.

"Avery's hella smart, she's not the smartest out of us five. Madison probably is the smartest, then Riley. Avery is probably the third smartest, when she tries. We all are in honors classes. Plus I think Maddison's in Geometry and we are all in 8th grade." Quinn said looking up at me.

"Wow... I take it Avery doesn't try very hard." I said laughing.

"Depends on her mood. If she's sad or depressed then weirdly enough she puts everything into her work, but if she's hyper or in a silly mood... No not at all. I remember in history once our teacher was talking about how the building used to be made out if wood in the 1800's and how Chicago had a fire. When he said that Avery said "Was it called the Chicago fire?" An everyone found that hilarious except the teacher." Quinn said smiling.

I smiled back and then felt a body collide with mine, making me fly back and hit the ground. I groaned in pain and opened my eyes finding a, still very hyper, Avery on top of me hugging me.

"I missed you." she said into my shirt

"Avery, you were gone like 10 minutes... and your the one that ran away." I said laughing hugging her back.

Normani and Quinn watched our little interaction. Normani looked amused but Quinn looked nervous and worried . That's weird... What would make her nervous? I shook it off and pushed Avery off of me standing up, helping Avery up too. I texted the Dinah, Ally and Lauren that we found her. Dinah texted back saying to meet up at the food court. I sent a quick ok and turned to the other girls.

"How about we go to the food court?" I asked

Normani and Quinn nodded but Avery just stood next to Quinn with a blank look.
