My Tea Mate (CAMREN)

Our Possible New Ritual

That day after school, Camila and I go to Grandpa Tea, as usual.

Except this time, my mom decided to pick me up to go sale shopping, lol. I'm excited but that means I don't go home by bus, which gives me a limit of time to spend time with Camila.

We still have about ten minutes, so right after I'm dismissed, I sprint out the door jumping over all the desks and seats. Thank god Camila is already waiting, that just saved us some time.

"Today I have to go home with my mom, so we don't have much time, let's run!" I say as I grab her hand. We start running.

"Why - Any-thing impor-tant?" she says breathlessly.

"No, we're going sale shopping. It's ridiculous." I reply.

"Oh, I wish I could come with." 

I stop her to speak normaller, "Oh my god, maybe you can! And maybe you will even end up sleeping over, remember when my mom said you are welcome anytime?" 

"No?"

"Oh yeah she didn't say that, but she said some time, and who says it can't be now?"

"oh my god, stop exciting me!" she laughs, "you're gonna get my hopes all up and I'm gonna end up so sad."

"Shut up who says I'm kidding."

I take out my phone that was charged by Shawn's power bank.

"I'm gonna call her right now." I say as I dial my mom.

"hello?" says my mom in the phone.

"hey mom, I have a question. Can Camila come shopping with us?" I say full of hope.

"The girl from this morning? Sure why not." I can not believe what I'm hearing, I squeeze Camila's hand in excitement.

"Ouch" Camila whispers, I chill a bit realizing it is too much.

"Yes! Thank you so much mom, umm about when will you arrive?" I ask.

"like 7 minutes, where should I park?" she asks.

"Umm do you know the Starbucks beside our school?"

"yes, okay I'll see you in front of it."

"yeah, bye."

I immediately turn my head to Camila. 

"She agreed."

"Ahhhh! I'm so happy, I want to kiss you."

I turn my head back and forth to see if there's anyone I know around us, nope! 

"No one's around, you ma-" before I could finish, Camila attacks me with her lips and her hands around my shoulders.

I close my eyes, put my arms around her waist, and kiss her back, so so passionately.

After about 30 seconds, I break the kiss, "You wanna grab a GT or not?"

I lick my lips and she immediately shakes her head and hands, "no" and leans in again.

I don't push back because I love her so much and this just might be our last chance today if she doesn't sleep over.

Then my phone suddenly rings, "hello?" I say after I answer.

"Honey, where are you?" it's my mom. 

Fuck it's already been that long? I look at Camila with a busted face and we start moving.

"Umm, sorry mom we're still inside, wait a minute." I hang up and basically sprint towards Starbucks.
