-Break Week-
When the last day of school before break rolled around, Camila was in a frenzy to get all of her last minute packing done. She had stuffed all of her shirts, socks, and just about everything else into her bags. She heard the door open, she thought it might be her mom so she ignored it.
"Need any help?" She heard a girl ask. She turned around to see Lauren shutting the door.
Camila furrowed her eyebrows. "When and how did you get here?"
Lauren turned to the younger girl, "I got here a couple minutes ago, and Dinah dropped me off, don't ask questions because I don't know why." Camila shrugged and stuffed more things into the suitcase. "Why don't you fold your things? You'd have a lot more space that way."
"It's part of my messy nature, accept it." Camila walked to her closet to get some more clothes. Lauren took out all of Camila's clothes from the suitcase. "Lauren! What are you doing?"
"Helping, keep doing what you were doing." Lauren ordered. Camila shrugged and looked back to the closet. Lauren folded everything one by one.
"Wow. I guess I will have more space." Camila said smiling at Lauren's progress. "You didn't have to do that you know, I could've."
"You could've, but you weren't going to." Lauren told the brown-eyed girl. "You excited to go tomorrow?"
"Yeah. We do this thing almost all the time."
"But wouldn't you rather spend time with your family?"
Camila shrugged and sat on the bed. "I don't really know. What about you?"
Lauren shook her head and sighed. "Why people cherish family time is beyond me."
Camila furrowed her eyebrows. "Spending time with your family is a great thing, especially at this time of year, around the holidays."
"Not really in my mind. I mean - what's so great about it? I'm not from one of those families who sits at the dinner table and we all talk about how are day was. I'm from one of those families where to everybody else we seem perfect, but when you really look closely, we aren't."
"Isn't every family like that though? No family is perfect, Lauren." Camila told the green eyed girl. Camila grabbed Lauren's hands and gave them a squeeze. "Whatever happened in the past, or whatever's happening Now, just forget about it. There's no room for negativity." Lauren rolled her eyes at the younger girl's cheesiness. Lauren wasn't used to people being their for her when she wanted them to be, it came to a surprise that Camila, of all people would want to talk to her.
"You know, you're not so bad to talk to. I like the calm Lauren, she's nice." Camila said smiling. Lauren's lips curved upward as she stared at the brown-eyed girl.
Camila's phone lit up with a text message, Camila quickly grabbed it seeing it was from Dinah.
{Dinah:} Everything going nice? 😉
{Camila:} Yes... I'm so mad at you Dinah.
{Dinah:} Why?
{Camila:} I can't believe you would just drop Lauren off at my house without my consent! I'm surprised she doesn't think something's going on...
{Dinah:} I'm just trying to help you guys. You two are parents for the project, this'll be a good time to...bond.
{Dinah:} If you wanna make it less awkward, invite us over and act like we're supposed to have a sleepover, then trick Lauren into staying. Duh..
{Camila:} That's actually pretty smart. Can you text them?
{Dinah:} Already on it.
