(CAMREN) Falling For You

20

After settling into the living room. amelia snuggled in between Camila and lauren. She ended up falling back to sleep when lauren started telling the girls what had happened. once lauren got on the subject about the crystal situation Camila decided to go put amelia to bed. when she returned Normani was telling lauren that she had spoken with her parents and they not only volunteered to testify against Amelia's grandparents but they also said that they would talk to other members of the family to do so as well as long as Lauren agreed to still allow Amelia to come to family events and that they as well as most of the family have already cut off crystal from the family for how she's been with lauren and amelia and once the family finds out that she tried to attack amelia they're sure more will follow suit. the girls ended up leaving an hour later since everyone had work the next morning.

Lauren and Camila made their way upstairs and into their bedroom. Lauren moved amelia over to the middle since she had rolled over to her side of the bed. They laid down and turned off their bed side lamps. Camila started to find herself becoming upset because lauren always kisses her goodnight but tonight she just went straight to her side and turned of her lamp.

"So.. should we talk about what happened Lo?"

"Honestly I'd really prefer not to talk about it right now." lauren snapped.

"wait.. are.. are you mad at me?"

Lauren sighs. "I don't know what I'm feeling right now camila."

Camila sits up in the dark. "what do you mean? what did I do?"

"Nothing camila thats exactly the point." Lauren says as she rolls over to her side facing away from Camila.

"what are you talking about lauren?"

"when austin put his arm around you and pressed you into him you did nothing, you said nothing, amelia is the one who smacked him. after that, thats when you finally did something. why is that camila? did you like it? did you miss him? were you really considering going back to him?"

Camila got up quickly and rushed to laurens side of the bed.

"Oh god.. baby.. no! that wasn't even a thought in my head. I was just in shock and I froze up. Honestly I just couldn't believe what was happening. but please believe me when I tell you that going back to him never ever crossed my mind Lo. you're who I want to be with, you're who I want to spend my life with, I swear Lauren if I was able to marry you tomorrow I would in a heart beat baby."

lauren flipped back onto her back and just laid there looking up at the ceiling. "Please say something Lo." lauren just sighed, still looking up at the ceiling. camila reached out to grab laurens hand and intertwined their fingers. "Lolo please baby talk to me. I know you probably don't believe me but I swear, I swear the thought of being with him or going with him never ever crossed my mind. you're the only one I want laur. I love you more than anything baby. please believe me."

lauren finally looked at camila. " I do believe you camila." lauren untangled her hand from camilla's and sat up. "lets go talk somewhere else ok?" camila nodded and stood up. they walked out of the room and into lauren's study. lauren closed the door behind her. and turned back around to look at a camila who's was already standing there waiting for lauren to speak.

lauren took camila's hand and walked her to the small sofa she had in the room. "Camila.. I believe you ok. please don't think I don't, I was just feeling insecure. First it was because you didn't stop him or push him away you know and then it made me feel like I don't know maybe you still loved him and it'd be easier to be with him you know he's an actual man. Me.. I'm a freak I'm a woman with a fucking penis. You know when me and Elizabeth were together we were really only fully together a year before she started to get sick. I loved her and she loved me but sometimes I used to think, would we have really been together all those years if she hadn't gotten sick? Like did she settle for me because I stuck around and she knew I would? If she'd never gotten sick would she have left me later to be with a man or a woman and not be with someone's who's body didn't know what it wanted to be? I just I don't know maybe you should be with someone, someone who's just a full man or a full woman you know? I just.... I just... ugh I don't know."

"Baby.. please stop it. I don't feel that way and I understand I would've probably been upset and insecure too if you just froze like that if it was the other way around. but please baby you're not a freak you're beautiful inside and out. I love you so much. You're just amazing babe. You do so much for everyone around you. You're caring, you're so loving, and you're loyal and smart baby. I don't need anyone else. Just like me, Elizabeth knew what kind of gem she had and she kept it just like I am doing now. If she hadn't gotten sick I'm sure you'd guys will still be together right now Laur. Just because Someone is fully one gender doesn't mean they're better. I love you laur you're the only one who's ever made me feel the way I feel. You make me feel loved, and wanted, and cared for. You and Amelia are my home babe. I want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with you lauren. you're the best thing besides amelia that has ever come into my life, you both are my world. I want this, I want us Lo more than anything. I want to grow old with you baby."

Lauren stated wiping the tears that had fallen on her cheeks. "did you mean it?"

Camila furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "did I mean what baby?"

"that you'd marry me tomorrow if you could?"

"YES! in a heartbeat." camila said without skipping a beat.

lauren smiled and pulled camila into a hug. when she pulled back she kissed camila on her temple and then looked her in the eye. " let's go to vegas tomorrow."

camila looked at lauren with wide eyes completely surprised by her request. "wh..what? are... are you serious right now?"

"YES. Let's go get married tomorrow in vegas. hell we can leave right now. it's just a 4 hour drive."

"so just you, amelia, and I?"

"yes. I'll reschedule my clients or pass them on to someone else. and you can call into work. I want grow old with you too camila I don't need to wait for no right moment. I don't need no fancy or big wedding. I just need you and amelia by my side."

"Ok..." Camila nodded. "Ok, lets do this." She says with a loving smile. lauren jumps up from the couch and lifts camila into a tight hug and spins her around. camila couldn't help but squeal and laugh. " I love you baby, I love you so much I can't wait to be you're wife!" Camila said placing both hand on each side of Lauren's faces and peppering kisses all over her face.

"God! I love you too camila. lets leave tomorrow baby. How about we go to bed and get some rest my love."

camila kisses lauren and smiles. "ok baby tomorrow it is. i'm so excited!"

lauren kisses her back then pulls her into a tight embrace. "me too baby. me too."
