I have a secret (Camren)

Don't kill the friend (31)

NOTE: For a better reading, when I point out in the chapter listen to the song "Yellow" by Coldplay.

"Laur..." Camila pinched my arm lightly, and I flashed a cynical smile.

"Dana." I shook her hand firmly. "It's a pleasure to meet you, I can't wait to get to know you better, I love to get to know my girlfriend's friends... Ally has become a great friend, right Allycat?" I asked the shorter girl, who smiled and hugged me.

"Absolutely, after all, it's kind of hard not to like you, Laur." Ally said, and I smiled, kissing the top of her head.

"It's also not hard to hate me..." I said, smiling straight at Dana, seeing that she continued with her prepotent posture. Camila looked at me suspiciously. "After all, I know how to be a pain in the ass when I want to..." I smiled at Dana cynically, to then look towards Camila. "Baby, do you want something to drink?"

"No. I'll wait here for you." She said, and I smiled, inching closer to seal our lips in a quick peck.

With a tilt of my head, Mani understood my message and stood beside Camila, starting a conversation. And I pulled Dinah by the wrist and dragged her to the bar. I ordered a drink and my best friend did the same thing, and then she quickly asked me if I had a plan.

There was no way we could do what we did to Drew. That bar, besides being a crowded place, it had security cameras scattered all over, it would be too risky to try to kill Dana there.

I looked at Dinah, but the bartender appeared with our orders. Dinah grabbed two of the glasses and I grabbed the other two, and then we went back to our group. All I said to her was: Wait for my signal.

I handed one of the glasses to Ally who smiled gratefully and I kept the other one. I promptly hugged Camila's waist and smiled at her, I was going to cling to her tonight, I wasn't going to let her be alone with Dana. And I was sure my friends would have my back.

I knew cynical people, but there was no one as cynical as Dana. She talked in such a fake way with Camila and made her laugh in such a sincere way, which made my heart clench even more. Was I like that with her at the beginning too? So calculating and mean?

*(Play the song – Yellow by Coldplay)*

A slow song started playing and I smiled. I held Camila's hand and asked her if she would dance with me, at least that one song. She promptly got up from where she was sitting and followed me to the dance floor. Only then did I realize that it was 'Yellow' by Coldplay that was playing. That song was so sad, but it had a good beat... Why was it playing in a nightclub?

I hugged Camila's waist and she hugged my neck, resting her head on my shoulder, leaving our bodies close together.

"I like this song." She said softly, and I smiled, pulling her even closer to me as our bodies swayed to the rhythm of the music.

"I like you." I said, closing my eyes and sighing.

"I like you too." Camila said, to then hide her face in the crook of my neck and rub her nose against it, making me shiver. "I think this is my favorite place in the world."

"This nightclub?" I asked, confused, and she lifted her head, staring into my eyes. She had a cute smile on her lips.

"No, silly, your arms. It's a very comfortable place to be in and it's safe. I feel so safe with you." She said, and I smiled, leaning down to kiss her lips calmly for a while. I closed my eyes tightly, strongly wishing that that moment lasted forever, but it ended when I pulled my lips away.
