Reason 58292 on why I hate this whole situation; at the end of the day, Lauren still has to engage interaction with Normani. As much as it kills me, if I really believe in me and Lauren then I have to respect it and take nothing they do serious.

We were at the beach, having a girls day out. Of course, Normani invited Lauren. Everything we do nowadays includes Lauren's presence. I wouldn't have a problem with her always being around if she was always around because of me and not Normani. Normani's so captivated in Lauren and each time they're together she seems to fall harder and sometimes it scares me.

From my perspective and my perspective only because me and Lauren are a thing, I don't fully understand why Normani is so into Lauren when Lauren isn't giving the same amount of energy back. She returns the energy Normani gives off but it's not at the same level. I see it, Dinah for sure see's it and Lauren knows it. It hurts because she has no idea of the mess waiting to unravel in front of her and if I could swallow my pride faster, she'd know by now.

I just know how everything is gonna go and that's what I'm most deathly afraid of.

Normani's half-naked and laying in between Lauren's legs and the four of us lay on the huge blanket under a beach tent. Dinah was laying on her stomach, my head strangely rested on her butt while I buried my face in my phone, taking my attention away from the love of my life and my best friend who were engaging in a very deep conversation about celebrities. They were so into each other that they nearly forgot me and Dinah were here.

"Ally come with me out to the water." Dinah said aloud as she signaled for me to move so she could get up.

"I don't wanna," I shrugged. As she stood to her feet, she slapped my thigh.

"Get your ass up and come with me." She said aggressively and she grabbed my arm and pulled me up.

Groaning with agitation, I walked with her towards the ocean.

"I know you were getting jealous and bothered and I wanted to get you away from them." She says and she puts her hand in mine.

I couldn't help but smile. "Thank you."

"No problem." She said before kissing my temple. "But I must remind you, it's almost Christmas. Which further means that the new year is approaching. Which also means time is winding down and if you two don't put something together and tell Normani, she's gonna find out. Now, I have a strong doubt that she will considering it's so obvious that Lauren is more attracted to you than her but it could still happen. And you know Normani hates to be lied to so if she finds out before you tell her—"

"She won't." I said sharply. "Believe me."

"Well I need to tell you something." Dinah tell me as we walk along the shallow currents. The water wasn't as cold, but it wasn't as warm. It was pretty December day in L.A. so I didn't complain.

I looked up at Dinah in curiosity. What is it now?

"Oh God, what?"

"Well," Dinah says before clearing her throat. "Normani told me last night while we were on FaceTime that her and Lauren had sex a few days ago. All night."

"WHAT?!" I yelled and she quickly wrapped her arm around my neck and pulled me into her side. We were far from Normani and Lauren so it wasn't like they heard us however I earned a few pair of eyes from strangers that were closer around us. "They slept together?!"

"Yes," The Tongan girl nodded. "And, she thinks she's pregnant."

Immediately, Ally snatched away from Dinah. "What the hell you mean she thinks she's pregnant? She can't be!"
