Unspoken Love

Chapter 6

Camila's POV

I know the pain in Normani's eyes..... But as the time passes by it has became unreadable, out of reach. It's as if when you try to read it you'll ran into a thick wall instead. I learned to read her emotions before..... I loved her and I still do. She keeps on pushing me away but that's the reason why I kept on loving her. She was my rock before, when she came into my life she gave me reason to live and fight to live longer. She was the reason why I woke up. I want to be with my bestfriend more than anyone. But now Dinah came and I want them both in my life. I can't live without them, they are the reason why I still live on this earth. I thought of giving up before I met Dinah but thankfully she showed up. It still hurts me, the memories of Normani being cheerful and dork but now it's the opposite.

"Dinah!" I yelled.

She stopped and turned around and ran to me. I hugged her tightly as I let her cry into my shoulders.

"Why does it hurts so much Camila?" she sniffled. "why does it hurt to be pushed away by someone you love?" she asked.

It broke my heart listening but I have to be there for her. "I know Dinah. It's heartbreaking..... And everytime you see them the broken pieces will manage to break itself into tinier pieces that all the edges hurts." I said while rubbing comforting circles on her back.

"You won't push me away just the way she did, right? Camila?" she asked as she looked into my eyes. Her eyes are sparkling due to the tears and the light from the setting sun.

I kissed her forehead "I promise you Dinah, I won't push you away, I will keep you because I love you" I whispered to her as I pull her closer to me and she did the same. Little did she know that I love her more than a friend should.

"I love you too Camila." Dinah said.

Dinah's POV

I was broken as to how Normani pushed me away.... How she was cold and unreachable. I tried my hardest to understand her and I do, but what breaks me is that she won't give me a chance, even thought I am clearly telling her that I want to make her happy... That I love her through my actions but she's just so blind. It's the total opposite what goes with Camila. She's the one who will heal the broken parts even if she's the one getting hurt by fixing it. I learned to love her because how happy and how loved she made me feel, how she makes my heart flutter at her sweet actions and careful words. I love how she make me feel safe, how she made me feel secure to love someone, but the problem is I'm in love with two people and now how I wish I have two hearts. Two hearts for each one of them. Two hearts, so if the other one gets broken one is still 100% capable for the other.

"I promise you Dinah, I won't push you away, I will keep you because I love you" she said. Then the familiar butterflies yet again erupted my stomach.

"I love you too Camila." I said back with something behind it.... Which is love more than a friend should.

"Do you want to have a sleepover at my place for tonight?" she offered as she intertwined our hands together. I smiled brightly, relived that she asked. I gladly accepted it.

As we lay down on Camila's bed enjoying a movie and mostly enjoying each other's presence. We sat on her bed and our backs are resting on the head board. Our shoulders are touching and that only made me crave for more. A funny scene suddenly caught both our attentions and laughed. Then suddenly we looked into each other's eyes. As the laughter died down, our stare got deeper. I leaned closer asking her to meet me hallway through my action and she oblige. Her soft lips was on me and mine on hers. It was magical on how a simple kiss can make you feel euphoria.

"Dinah?" Camila asked as both our lips detached themselves from each other.

"Yes?" I answered her.

"I ought to tell you something that might change your view on me......" She took a deep breath "I like you Dinah.... So much... I like you the first time I heard you talked, the first time my eyes landed on you. I like everything you made me feel, you made me feel alive.... You made me feel loved. I know you probably just love me as a friend and I get that.... I just can't hide this anymore and it frustrates me how I will almost slip myself away." she said.

"After that kiss..... Camila.... Did you really think I just like you as a FRIEND?" I asked in bewilderment.

"Well.... yeah..."

"You're insane.... Do friends kiss the way we do? Do friends say I love you to each other with the same tone as we do?" I asked and intertwined our hands together. "And there's no friend that gives me butterflies in the out of my stomach when they just simply look at me, or tell me something sweet. No friends have ever made me feel chills all over my body with a simple touch.... So if you are thinking that I only love you as a friend, you are wrong because I honestly love you more than a friend should love a friend."

"So what does that make us?" she asked.

"What do you think?" I challenged her.
