Our Mistake (Laurmani)(COMPLETED)

Is This A Date?

Normani's p.o.v

Today is Saturday and my weekend off. Maya is at her friends for the weekend so I decide to hang out with Dinah. She wanted to go to this bistro that just opened for lunch.

"So how are things with Lauren?" She asks as she drinks her tea..

"Fine." I answer.

"How are Maya and Lauren getting along?"

"Great. They've been getting closer than ever." She nods.

"That's good to hear." She says with a smile on her face.

" Maya asked Lauren about her other mother." I tell her and her eyes go wide.

"What? Why?"

"I don't know. Lauren said all she said was that she wanted to see her."

"Do you think it was just a random question or she has really been thinking about it?" She asks and I shrug.

"I hope it was just a one time thing but I don't know."

"Have you talked to her?"

"No. How can I without her asking more questions? I don't know how to tell her about Lauren."

" Have you and Lauren talked about telling her?" I shake my head no.

" I know she's young but Amaya is smart and she may already be figuring out who Lauren is." Dinah says and I sigh.

"You're right, but I don't want to get into that until I'm sure I'm ready to tell her about Lauren." I tell her and she nods.

" I understand. So how are you and Lauren?" I furrow my eyebrows and say.

" You already asked me that. I said fine."

"No. I really want to know what's going on." I roll my eyes and sigh.

" Fine Dinah. We're rebuilding our friendship."

"That's it?"

" Yes that's it! What did you expect? She say sorry and we get married and ride off into the sunset?"

" No. I know that will take more time but Mani I know you, and I know you still love her because you never stopped."

I'm incredibly shocked she just said that. I can't honestly say she's wrong because...she isn't. That's why I hadn't forgiven her after all this time. Its because I still love her. I don't think it's possible to really ever stop loving someone. I don't know if I could honestly see myself with Lauren again though.

" Maybe but that doesn't mean she feels the same."

" I don't believe that and neither do you." I sigh.

" It's...I'm not sure I can see being with Lauren again."

" I wouldn't rule it out. You two have a history and were really good together. I think if it happens you shouldn't fight it." She says and I just nod.

" Who knows? If Lauren and I ever got back together, it'll be along time from now."

In all honesty I can't help the way I feel about Lauren. She was my best friend and first love. I don't know if I can risk taking her back. I can't take her breaking my heart twice. Dinah Jane and I keep talking when my phone rings. I pick it up off the table and see it's Lauren.

"Hello?" I answer.

" Sup Mani. Are you busy?" She asks.

" Not really, just having lunch with Dinah Jane."
