The two best friends, Camila Cabello and Lauren Jauregui, are inseparable. Lauren is a lesbian who doesn't stick to 'relationships', she's always got a girlfriend. Camila is straight, with a boyfriend, Austin. However, when one relationship fails, a...
It was exactly 2:37am and my phone had vibrated 3 times. I immediately assumed it was Lauren but I checked because we have a rule to never text each other in the middle of the night, unless there is an emergency. There were 3 messages from an unknown number.

I had to rub my eyes multiple times to ensure I was seeing what my brain thought I was seeing. Lauren with another girl. A girl I hadn't seen before. It felt like a hole had been shot through my chest and my heart was shattering. Even though, I didn't want to assume the worst.. I did.
Camila [3:45am]: Who is this?
Unknown [3:45am]: The girl in the photo. Lauren's ex lover, the one who she said she wanted to marry. The one who she made love to a million times. The one who she took on dates. The one who she planned a future with. Can't tell how in love we were in those photos? We spent Christmas together, went to family parties and kissed. You seriously don't think you're the only one who she's introduced to her family, do you?
Camila [3:47am]: Why are you doing this?
Unknown [3:48am]: Because you stole my girl from me. I'm gonna get her back.
Camila [3:50am]: Well, I have been her best friend since we were 8 years old, so I have never heard of you. Can you just tell me your name?
Unknown [3:51am]: Sure. It's Lucy.
Unknown [4:00am] What do you think she's up to when she's out of your sight? I'm not going to tell you because I'm sure you can guess.
I couldn't reply. I was feeling so many emotions that I couldn't even describe. They were taking over my body - I couldn't move. I wanted to trust Lauren, but I was having doubts. What am I supposed to think when there's proof and the texts?
I lied awake in my bedroom, in bed, staring at the ceiling. I turned my phone off and didn't move from the same position for hours. I looked at my clock and it was nearly 7am. Luckily, it was the weekend. I could stay in bed and leave my phone off all day, but I'm pretty certain Lauren would turn up at my house. I could go out but I don't want to go alone. I could go out with Lauren but I'd probably throw my phone a her face. I could hunt Lucy down and throw my phone at her face but I decided against it.
Camila made a group chat. Camila added Dinah Camila added Mani Camila added Ally
Camila: Hey guys, please can we do something today? Maybe some lunch or meet at the ice cream place? Something has happened and I need advice.
Ally: Sure girl, where's Lauren? Should I add her?
Camila: NO. Please don't. This is something I need to speak to you all without Lauren. She can't know we're going out. So, if she asks, please make up a story.
Mani: You got it kiddo. Meet at ice cream place at 12?
Ally: I'll be there. You have my word 😀
Dinah: You know you got me Chancho.
Dinah: Are you gonna propose to her? 😀😀
I roll out of bed and walk to my bathroom to take a shower, I need something to distract me.

Lauren's POV
I woke up later than normal today, I didn't wake up until 10 this morning. I had noticed that Camila hadn't text me this morning. I decided to ring her because I missed her.
"Hey babe, good morning," I started on the phone. "I miss you, I miss you so much"
"Morning," Camila bluntly said back.
"Is everything okay?," I asked her.
"Yep."
"Well, do you want to do something today? We could get food," I suggested. However, the silence on the other line gives me an idea that she doesn't want to do anything. Something is wrong.
"Uh... I can't sorry. I'm busy with family today," Camila sighed. "I have to go sorry, I'll speak to you later," and before I could say anything, she had put the phone down.
I left her to it, she clearly doesn't want to bother with me today and I'm not going to force it.
To Ally [10:35am]: Hey, wanna do something today?
Ally [10:37am]: Sorry Laur, I have work to do today. Maybe another time? We can catch up!
