After a while of talking to "Spider-Man", they all decided that it was finally time to go back home. As they were walking to the car, Dinah, Normani, and Ally were all looking at the group photo. Camila couldn't help but be nervous about what they were going to say in the car, she could tell they were talking about her tomato red face. It was hard for Camila to keep her calm around Lauren, especially whenever Lauren would secretly snake her arm around her waist.

As Camila was reaching over to the car door, Dinah put her hand on her wrist, making her stop all of her movements. Camila knew what was coming next, she knew that the teasing wasn't going to stop until the day she dies.

"CAMILA YOUR FACE LOOKED LIKE A FRICKIN TOMATO!" Dinah exclaimed through her laughter. While the other girls laughed at her remark, Camila just playfully rolled her eyes and entered the car.

"Someone's anxious to go to the backseat, if you know what I'm sayin" Normani laughed, making the other girls laugh and Camila cross her arms. They all finally entered the car as Camila sat in the backseat with her arms crossed.

"Oh my god, I can't stop laughing. I'm telling Lauren" Dinah said, making Normani and Ally laugh, once again. Ally smack her arm while trying to stifle her laughter. Camila bit her bottom lip, shaking her head as she glued her gaze to the floor, face turning a bright shade of red just from hearing Lauren's name. She couldn't help her cheeks from blushing when she heard Lauren's name, thinking about the adorable green eyed girl.

"AAAAWWW, SHE'S BLUSHING FROM HEARING LAUREN'S NAME" Normani awed while pinching Camila's cheek, making Camila bury her head in her hands while her friends gushed over how red Camila's cheeks were.

(Lauren's POV)

"LAUR, CAN YOU COME DOWN FOR A SEC?" Lauren heard her Aunt call from downstairs.

"UH-YEAH-OKAY, JUST ONE SECOND" Lauren said while sneaking through her bedroom window. She had just come back from downtown and she was still in her Spider-Man suit. She slid through her window, trying her best to not knock down the pictures on her desk. She quickly took the hoody off, then the rest of her suit, hastily changing into more casual clothes.

She quickly shoved her suit into her book bag and threw it in the closet before making her way downstairs. Once she made it downstairs, she took her regular seat on top of the staircase post.

"Lauren, where have you been?" her Aunt asked her, making Lauren internally freak out, realizing she had been out for a very long time. It was only then that she realized her Aunt hasn't seen her since this morning. She went to school, asked Camila to be her girlfriend, then went to go clean up the "Will you be my girlfriend?" sign, never once coming back home.

"I'm sorry Auntie, it was important, I promise" Lauren said while leaning down to kiss her Aunt's cheek, trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.

"What could have been so important. You come home from school at 2:00, Laur, it's 9 o'clock and I haven't seen you since this morning. Did you really sneak out, Laur?" her Aunt asked, obviously slightly frustrated at Lauren.

"Auntie" Lauren said calmly, placing her hands on her Aunt's laughter in an attempt to calm her down.

"Camila's my girlfriend now, Auntie" Lauren said excitedly. Lauren let out a little laugh when she saw her Aunt's eyes instantly widen.

"OH MY GOD, LAUR. NO WAY! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU, LAUR!" her Aunt exclaimed excitedly while jumping up and down, making Lauren burst out laughing.

"Auntie, Auntie... calm down" Lauren said while trying to stifle her laughter, putting her hands on her Aunt's shoulders to calm her down. Once she noticed her Aunt starting to calm down, she spoke up.

"What'd you wanna tell me?" Lauren said while taking her hands off of her Aunt's shoulders. Lauren's eyebrows instantly furrowed when she noticed her Aunt instantly replace her beautiful smile with a slight frown.

"Um-yeah, right" her Aunt said before clearing her throat.

"Your Uncle's funeral is tomorrow, so-um-you'll have to miss a mom call bit of school" her Aunt stated sadly. As soon as Lauren noticed her Aunt's eyes starting to tear up, she instantly jumped down from the staircase post. She gave her Aunt a warm embrace, letting her break down in her arms, trying her best to hold the tears to stay strong for Camila's  Aunt.

(Camila's POV)

She was sitting on her bed, trying to think of ways to tell her parents about Lauren being her girlfriend. Camila knew she probably shouldn't tell them right away but she knew she wouldn't be able to lie to them.

"CAMILA! CAN WE TALK TO YOU FOR A SECOND" Camila heard her mom call from downstairs. She quickly stood up from her bed and made her way downstairs. Camila's friends had left her house a little while ago, and it was now 9:32.

"We're going to Micheal's funeral tomorrow, do you wanna come?" her dad said once she made it down the staircase. Hurt instantly crashed into Camila, she knew how great Micheal Jauregui was, and she could tell her parents were trying to hold their tears back as well.

"Uh-yeah-of course" Camila said, voice cracking at the end while she grabbed the invitation that her mom held out for her. She hadn't told her parents about Lauren yet, even though she knew she would have to tell them eventually, so she decided that maybe she should tell them now.

"Uh-can we talk-uh-in the living room or something?" Camila asked, already starting to feel her palms become sweaty out of nervousness.

"About what?" her mom asked, voice laced with confusion. Camila could feel herself becoming more nervous with every second. She didn't respond she , grabbed her parents' wrists and brought them to the living room, sitting them down on the couch.
