"So... Got any plans?"
"Of course no, you didn't see Lauren around here right?" I replied.
The tall girl looked at me, "Hold up. Does every plan you have or make, involves Lauren to it?"
Normani looked at her oblivious girlfriend, rolling her eyes and chuckling afterwards. "What do you think babe?"
"No."
I focused on finishing this homework that our English teacher had gave to us before leaving with the two love birds, School stuff first before doing something else.
I might say, Dinah is correct. Not everything involves Lauren with my plans, she invites herself here in the house. I wouldn't mind though, I love her after all, also my girlfriend, so why not?
I didn't respond anything, since the couple had already picked a conversation. It seems they were so into that topic that I, myself, was amazed by Dinah's deep vocabulary words.
And... Boom! Done with the essay!
I sigh, stretching out my body after minutes sitting in that position. The couple noticed me, and the next thing I didn't expect was they dragged me out of my room.
"Camila!" Dinah called out. "Get dress because we are going out!"
"Let me go you two!" I tried to release myself from their grasp.
"No."
I didn't budge anymore, knowing that there's no chance in getting out of their hold.
What a child.
-------------------------------------------------
I slammed the door close, "What is it?"
"Sit down first if you want to know."
I sat down. I tapped my foot on the wooden floor impatiently. Five minutes had passed, nothing came out still from his mouth.
I leaned on the leather couch. "Are you wasting my time?"
"Of course not..." He looked at somewhere else.
"Then?"
"I just don't know how to say it..."
I look at him in disbelief. "Well, God gave you a mouth to-"
"Shut up Michelle."
"What did you say?" My eyebrows furrowed in annoyance.
"Okay, fine. I'll be serious this time" He stated. "It's that-"
"Finally! You'd became serious atleast once."
"Anyways," He looked at me in a matter that something is not a good news. "Try to date Lucy."
I arched a brow at him. Laughing then later became serious again. "Haha, No. Are you stupid asking me that?"
"I'm not, but have you already saw Lucy in school?"
What else?
"Of course." I replied nonchalantly.
He sighed, massaging his temples. "Look, let's have a deal."
"I'm not going to agree with this bullshit." I said, standing up.
"Hold on." He stated, "Before you leave, Your girlfriend also knows about this. She's willing to protect the both of you. That's why the first attempt didn't go well, in the process of your dating..."
I sat down again, getting interested. "So that's the reason she broke with me?"
"Not only that, but of course for some reason she has her own, I don't know about it but it's for you to find about it." He stated.
"Why didn't you tell me before then?"
"I didn't know how to tell it to you..."
I scoffed, "You could just said 'Hey Lauren, Lucy wants you so break up with Ally.'"
"That sounded dumb."
I looked at him innocently, "Like you."
"I'm being serious."
"I am to." I leaned against the couch, "Now, tell me more about this topic."
and there we have it folks, the long-ass story has officially started...
---------------------------------------------
Sweat were slipping off on the surface of my face, fingers furiously moved around the controlers.
and... BAM!
"Ha! I win." I stuck out my tongue at her. She let go of the controler, "You couldn't have let me win, didn't you?"
"Of course, why would I lose?" I stated.
"Not even to your girlfriend?"
"Nope." I said, popping out the p. I looked around our surrounding, adjusting my eyes through the dim lit in the room. "Where did the two gals go?"
Normani intertwined our fingers,"I'm sure they are at the claw machines..." She looked at me. "We know how addicted they are at those games here."
I nodded. The Hernandez and Cabello's are surely drown to those things inside the arcade. It sure seems fun, but for me it wastes my time in getting those toys. I wouldn't mind if I would get one for my girlfriend. I'm whipped people, I know.
We've finally spotted them after what felt like an hour but only minutes in finding them.Ally had at least 5 stuffed toys already, Camila had 3.
I'm amazed by the amount of stuffed things they got. If I were to play with them, I would only get one with the time being an hour. It's hard to get one. It's like, once the claw grab the item and it goes back up again, it falls down. I feel that the thing is cheating.
Camila turned to us, "Oh, hey Norminah." Her voice came out muffled, since she was biting on the stuffed toy animal from the machine.
She put it where Ally had put her items in.
"Hey, how's it going?" Normani looked between the two step siblings as the claw move by the control of the joystick.
Ally glanced back at us, soon returning back to the machine. "We're fine here."
"Alright, contact us if you're done." I wrapped my arms around normani's waist before leaving the two alone with the machines.
I looked at Normani, "Let's play more?"
"Sure, but make sure you're going to let yourself lose."
"I don't think so Mami."
-------------------------------------
While the siblings and couple kept playing throughout the whole day, no one knew that someone was watching them.
Far and far but seemed close. A perfect spot for spying on someone, a particular someone.
"Tsk." The brown haired girl shooked her head.
"What immaturity i'm seeing. A girlfriend who's still playing these damn games." She stated in the back of her mind, while getting out of her hide out. "If only Lauren gave me a chance..." Lucy added. She moved into a new hide out, knowing they would be moving soon enough.
Time is moving. If Lauren knows, then the plan shall begin.
