Devonne's POV

Lauren and I made our way back to the limo. As soon as we stepped outside, there was a huge group of people. I gripped Lauren's hand tighter, as my breathing got a little quicker.

"Shit." I cursed, as some of them got closer. My heart felt like it was going to burst of out of my chest. I can't deal with this right now.

"You okay?" Lauren asked stopping to look at me. I can't even focus on her, all the paps are closing in.

"Y-yea." I nodded, she began walking faster, keeping me next to her. Lauren opened the car door, and slipped in first.

"Are you two dating?!"
"Dev are you going to be in a movie soon!?"
"Lauren why were you and Devonne all lovey dovey during the movie!?!"
"Dev are you-."

"That went well." Lauren chuckled, while I smiled nervously trying to calm my nerves.

"Dev are you okay?" Ma asked.

"Y-yea, c-can we just um... G-go home." I stuttered looking at my fingers trying to focus on something. I could feel Lauren staring at me, and I have a feeling it's a worried look.

"Jason, drive us home please.... As quick as possible." Mami added.

Once we got home, Mami allowed Lauren to sleep over. I quickly rushed to my room, and ripped off my dress. My breathing was so uneven, I don't even remember how I got dressed.

"Dev are you- Oh my god Devonnne!" Lauren rushed to my side, while I was sitting against my bed. "What's the matter?!"

"They were everywhere!" I panted, looking at my fingers. I kept having the flashbacks of how close they were. I could feel them closing in, squishing me and suffocating me.

All the walls are closing in, I feel like I'm stuck in a box. I can't breath it's to stuffy. "I c-can't b-breath." I panted clutching my chest. It's too much for me right, now.

"What's happening? Are you having an asthma attack?!" She asked, I shook my head. Scooping me up, Lauren took me to my balcony. "Breath with me." She whispered in my ear, holding me close. As much as I loved being in her arms. Having claustrophobia, with it kicking in I wanted to push her away.

I clutched onto her dress, nuzzling my face in her chest. I listened to how fast her heart was beating. I slowly breathed in and out with her, listening as her heart slowed. Until we both had a slow steady heart beat, and my breathing was back to normal.

"Your okay. I'm right here." Lauren whispered rocking back and forth. I pushed myself up to look into her eyes. "I'm right here." She whispered wiping away the tears, I didn't even know I had.

"T-thank you." I choked. She gave me a half smile, then kissed my forehead.

"What happened?" She asked, looking out at the beach.

"I have claustrophobia. Being in that big crowd of paps didn't help." I chuckled, wiping my cheeks again.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"It never came up." I shrugged.

"Next time let me know. I'll try to get it under control, or I'll carry you next time."

"I don't think that would be necessary." I giggled. "But thank you. No one has been able to calm me down as fast as you did. I usually end up falling asleep, and not remember some of the things from the day before."

"It's was nothing. Just if it happens again; and I'm not there; call me okay?" I nodded, leaning my forehead on hers.  I swear I'm falling for this girl, and really fast.

"What do you wanna do?" I asked Lauren as we walked back inside from the balcony.

"What ever, as long as I can get out of this dress." I nodded, and threw a pair of sweats and a hoodie at her. "Walk on the beach, huh?"

"How did you-."

"I was on tour with you for five months. I think I know something's about you. Plus I am your girlfriend." She giggled.

"What ever!" I stuck out my tongue.

"I'll bite it off." She raised an eyebrow.

"You wouldn't dare." I covered my mouth.

"I would, babe." Lauren winked, walking over to me. "But now I just want a kiss." She whispered.

I pulled my hands from my mouth, and placed my lips on hers. I moved my mouth with hers, perfectly. Lauren bit down on my lip, her tongue meeting mine. Causing me to let out a moan, Lauren smirked. I slipped my tongue into her mouth, and she bit down on it.

"Ow!" I playfully hit her. "That's no fair!" I pouted.

"I couldn't help it, sorry." She giggled, and then unzipped her dress.

I watched carefully as her beautiful pale skin came on display. I watch her toned arms, slid from her black dress. She bent over picking up her dress turning around.

I noticed I was staring too long, and once she turned around she caught me. I looked down finding my blue sheets very interesting. I could feel how close she was, as she breathed down my neck.

"I saw you staring." She whispered kissing under my ear.

"I-I.. U-uh." I nervously looked anywhere but her eyes. If I looked into her eyes, I would fall deep into her spell.

"You can look at me now." She giggled, nibbling on my earlobe. I playfully pushed her away, giggling.

"You know how much that tickles." I played with my fingers.

"Look at me." She pleaded. I took the chance, and looked into her green orbs. Now a lighter green, almost lime.

"Your eyes look so much lighter." I whispered, placing my hand on her jaw. My finger traced down her jaw, back up to her cheek.

"It's cause I'm with you." She smiled. "They're only this color, when I'm around you." There was a little rasp to her voice, the kind that made shivers rush down my body.

I started to realized that she's right. When ever we're together her eyes seem a bit lighter than the usual color. I'm glad I'm the only one that happens with. My heart flutters, as Lauren begins to lean in.

Her lips press to mine, as she places a hand on my thigh. I cup her face deepening the kiss with a bite to her lip. Our tongues come in contact, as she pushes me back on the bed. Carefully straddling me, I pull her body more into me. Wanting to feel the touch of her skin. Wanting to have the heat from both our bodies collide.

"Dev, we're gonna order pizza do you-."
Shit.



Hiiiii okay so it's only Devonne's POV. I don't really know who else to put in. I only had Dev have claustrophobia, cause I have it too.
It's just the face of being in a tight space. Or being somewhere for too long, I start to feel squished. It gets really bad. Sometimes you feel like you can't breath properly, or being suffocated.

Who do you think walked in on Dev and Lauren?
Do you want it to be Naya or Demi?

Love you goregeouses!!
