I'll Wait (Camren)

Better Together

Both Lauren and I smiled into the kiss before disconnecting. Our faces remained close, just far enough to look into each other's eyes. I tried to figure out what Lauren was thinking but she didn't give me much of a chance before crashing our lips together again. This time with more passion and hunger.

"That was way better than our original first kiss." Lauren said with a smirk on her face when we finally pulled away.

"You remember our first kiss?" I wondered allowed, a little touched since it was so long ago.

"Of course I do," Lauren smiled widely, looking deep into my eyes. "I remember everything about that night."

"Me too," I admitted a little embarrassed at how well I actually remembered that night. "It was the night you surprised me with a picnic on the beach," I began starting to recall the memory. "It was the first time I felt attracted to you as more than friends."

"I can't believe you were the one to kiss me first," Lauren chuckled. "I had been practically drooling over you for months before you kissed me."

"Well I can't believe you just walked away all smug after I did," I joined Lauren in her laughter. "I didn't know what that kiss meant but I knew that I was glad it was my first."

"Really? You don't ever regret it?" Lauren asked seriously.

"No." I replied honestly. "I've regretted a lot of things involving you, but kissing you was never one of them."

"Even when you kissed me inside my bunk when the other girls were filming a video for Awesomenesstv?!" Lauren referred to the time we made out in her bunk even though there were cameras all around.

"Not even then," I laughed harder than before at the memory. "It was kind of exciting honestly, except you had to go and be so noisy. A lot of camren shippers pointed it out in the takeover episode."

"I know," Lauren continued, us both breathing loudly trying to contain our laughter. "Those people are detectives I swear."

"I remember every one of our kisses," I admitted, thinking aloud. "Our second kiss was after we finished recording Better Together."

"Right," Lauren spoke recalling the memory. "We were recording in LA and me and you were staying in the same hotel room. I couldn't stop thinking that we were better together," Lauren laughed at how cheesy her words were. "That sounds really lame saying it aloud."

"No, actually it doesn't," I spoke up disagreeing. "I think I felt the same way. I was always happy when you were around and I was always missing you when you weren't. I can't believe I didn't recognize that what I felt for you was more than just wanting to experiment," I continued shaking my head disappointed.

"It's okay, you were scared," Lauren tried to justify my actions. "I was scared too but when I kissed you that night I couldn't hide it any longer. I knew that I didn't have a little crush on you, I knew then that I really really liked you."

"That was probably my favorite and least favorite kiss of ours," I admitted

"Why?" Lauren asked curious when I didn't elaborate.

"It's my favorite because everything was so perfect then," I began to explain. "Me and you, we were having so much fun together and that night I admitted to myself that I really wanted to kiss you again. I was kind of scared because I didn't know why I wanted to or what it meant. When you kissed me all my worries vanished because in that moment all that mattered was your lips being on mine," I sighed before continuing.

"It's my least favorite because of how dumb I was. I should have realized that what I felt for you was more than just wanting to kiss you. That night I decided that I could kiss you because I liked the way it felt, not because I liked you more than a friend. It felt so good to kiss you but I figured it would feel that good with anyone, you were just the only person that actually wanted to kiss me back," I shook my head, disapprovingly at my actions before.
