When Monday had rolled around, Camila knew she had to face Austin and explain the things that had happened. She met Lauren at her house and they walked to school together.

"I'm nervous. I hope he knows it didn't mean anything. I'm not even into guys." Camila explained.

"He'll understand. You were drunk. People do crazy things when intoxicated." Lauren said. "I don't understand why you should have to explain anyway."

"I just do." The two walked into the busy school. Camila looked around. "I need to go find him. Catch you later?"

"Yeah." Lauren responded as Camila kissed her cheek. Camila walked away and Lauren walked to her locker.

"Hey." A voice said behind Lauren. Lauren turned around.

"Hey, Dinah. What's up?" Lauren asked.

"I saw you with Mila. Are you two together? Like for real now?" Dinah asked as the pair walked to Lauren's locker.

"Uh, not really. I mean we're not friends, but we aren't girlfriend and girlfriend. You know?" Lauren asked.

"I don't understand that or how you can do it. You guys are practically glued to each other, but you're not together. That makes no sense." Dinah responded.

"We both agreed that putting labels on things can ruin things." Lauren shrugged her shoulders.

"Then how will people know she's yours?" Dinah asked crossing her arms.

Lauren raised an eyebrow. "Oh, trust me. She's mine. People will know that much."

"Alright, Miss Possessive." Dinah playfully rolled her eyes. "You guys are cute together. You guys are my OTP."

"Thanks?" Lauren said in question form. She turned the lock on her locker.

"Where is Camila anyway?" Dinah asked.

"Talking to Austin. She's clearing up what happened Friday night." Lauren explained.

"Did they go further then kissing?" Dinah asked getting nervous.

"No, I don't believe so. She probably wouldn't let him anyway no matter how drunk she was. She's not into boys." Lauren stated the obvious. Dinah rolled her eyes. They both spotted Camila running up to them. "Here she is."

"Hey, Dinah." Camila said waving. She kissed Lauren's lips. "Hey, baby." Lauren blushed hard.

"I'm gonna go find Normani. See ya guys later." She patted the two on their backs and walked away.

"So...how did he take it?" Lauren asked.

"Well, he took it well. He was a bit upset that it didn't mean anything, but he took it well." Camila answered. "Wanna go to class?"

"Is it really an option?" Lauren asked laughing.

"Nope." Camila smiled. The two walked to class.

When it was lunch time, Lauren sat with the girls. She could see Skylar eyeing her from a distance, she decided to ignore her and pay attention to Camila. Lauren propped her head up with her hand, she stared at Camila. Camila looked at Lauren and put her sandwich down.

"Do I have something on my face or something?" Camila asked embarrassed.

"Nope. You're just...so beautiful, and cute at the same time." Lauren said moving a piece of hair out of Camila's face.

"I'm eating, Lolo. No one can be cute slash beautiful while eating. Well, Bambi possibly, but he's only a cartoon." Camila explained.
