Five months, two days, three hours and ten minutes since Camila found out she was pregnant. When she pictured herself having a baby she thought she was going to be smiling, maybe even crying tears of joy. Instead she finds herself lost, sad and crying tears of pain.

She knew the consequences of what was going to happen. She knew Lauren would hate her, but she didn't know it would happen while she was pregnant. Zayn and Harry made sure she was okay every second of the day. They never let her go anywhere alone claiming it could be dangerous. She didn't mind though, she only wished Lauren would forgive her.

"Camila." Zayn calls. The doe eyed girl turns around to see Zayn standing behind her. He gives her a small smile and gestures to the spot beside her.

"Hey." Camila says. Camila had been really quiet, she didn't want to cause more problems then she already had.

"Are you okay?" Zayn ask. He glances down to her baby bump, which is showing tremendously.

"Yea. I'm good." Camila says. She knows she should tell Zayn about the cramps she had been getting but things were already bad as was.

"Are you sure?" Zayn ask. Camila rolls her eyes. She hates when he ask too many questions.

"Yes Zayn." Camila starts to walk off. "I'm going to lay down." Camila calls out.

"Camila." Zendaya calls out. She makes her way over to Camila.

"Yes Zendaya?" Camila ask.

"What are you doing walking by yourself?" She ask. Camila tolled her eyes.

"I'm just going to lay down." She says. Camila could feel her anger rising, but she didn't understand why.

"That's a pretty long walk, I think I'll walk with you." Zendaya says.

"No." Camila whispers. "I don't want you to baby me, go somewhere else or something." Camila says louder this time. Zendaya wants to say no but she decides against it.

"If you need anything just scream." She jokes but Camila doesn't laugh. Zendaya walks away.

Camila finally makes it back to the safe house. She is tired, grumpy and hungry. Her feet had started to hurt and her back was giving her trouble, but she didn't say anything. Instead she walks to the kitchen.

"There's no food in there." Lauren says. Camila nearly has a heart attack, she didn't hear the other girl come up behind her.

"Well that sucks." Camila says. She takes a water bottle and sits on one of the chairs. Lauren doesn't say anything else not wanted to start a conversation she walks out. "Wait." Camila says.

"Yes?" Lauren ask with one eyebrow raised.

"Are you going to get food?" Camila ask. She can't lie she is starving right now.

"Are you hungry?" Lauren ask. She knew the answer.

"Yes." Camila says shamefully. She ducked her head down and felt her cheeks heating up.

"Then yes I'm going to get food." Lauren says. She can't deny that she is still in love with Camila but at the moment she just wishes to be away from her.

"Thank you." Camila says.

Lauren was about to leave until she sees Camila grab her back and groan in pain.

"Are you okay?" Lauren ask.

"Yea just a little cramp." Camila says. Lauren nods her head and walks out.

On her way out she sees Madison, they make eye contact and Lauren points to the door. Madison understands and she grabs her weapons. Both of the girls leave to go find food.

"Hey Lauren!" Harry calls out. Lauren looks behind her to see Harry coming from the woods. "Are you going hunting?" He ask. Lauren nods her head. "Okay."

"Harry could you check on Camila?" Lauren says. She wanted to make sure the girl was okay.

"Yea of course. Is something wrong?" Harry ask.

"I don't know. She had this really bad cramp in her back." Lauren says. Harry stiffens.

"How long has this been happening?" He ask quickly. Lauren shrugs.

"This is the first time I've seen it." She says. Harry doesn't say anything he makes his way to the house. Lauren doesn't think anything of it.

Madison had been waiting on Lauren. She hadn't said anything nor had she wanted to. She knew the older girl had a temper and that anyone could get hurt when she was angry. Unfortunately she was always the one to get hurt, it made her angry. Lauren is her best friend, why did she always have to get hurt?

"Madison." Lauren whispers. Madison blinks and looks at Lauren.

"What?" Madison ask. Lauren points ahead of them. There was a deer right there. Madison grabbed a arrow from her pouch. She shot the arrow and it missed. Lauren huffed.

"Great job." Lauren said sarcastically.

"Fuck you Lauren." Madison says. She was tired of Lauren doing what she wanted.

"No Madison fuck you." Lauren says.

"You know what do this yourself." Madison grabbed her things and walked off.

"Where are you going?" Lauren ask.

"Didn't you get the memo?" Madison ask. Lauren frowned.

"What memo?" She ask. Madison stopped a turned around.

"It's been five months. Get over yourself. I've said I was sorry a thousand times." Madison says.

"Sorry? Do you think that's what I want?" Lauren ask.

"Well what the hell do you want?" Madison ask. Lauren doesn't answer. "That's the point you don't know what you want. You just needed a reason to hate me."

"Madison that's not true." Lauren says.

"Whatever Lauren." Madison says. She walks away.

"Fuck." Lauren says. Truth be told she wasn't mad anymore, she was hurt.

She was hurt that her best friend betrayed her. She was hurt that the woman she loves lied to her. She was just hurt. Now she had to find a way to fix it. She knew what she wanted but she didn't know how she would get it. She wanted her best friend back. Most importantly she want to be able to raise a child with Camila.
