My Best Friend's Girlfriend (Camren)

Chapter 2

Lauren’s POV :

"Hey Lolo, pass me a slice of pizza." .

"Here you go." I smiled as I hand her a slice.

"Thanks." she giggled.

It's been 6 months since Austin left Miami.I've got to admit we felt lonely but we got that covered up. Camila and I moved our status from friends to best friend.Yes she's my best friend.She helped me move on and forget about my feelings for Ally.

I watched Camila as she sits around waiting for a phone call from Austin. He said that he'll be coming home which Camila is looking forward to. If you ask me, I'm pretty excited about it too. Then suddenly I was startled by the phone ringing which Camila quickly picked up. Her face fell and she just dropped the phone on the ground staring at the distance. Tears began to fall on her face then she ran upstairs. I picked up the phone and answer the call.

"Hello?" I managed to say.

"Hello? Is this the Cabello Residence?" The woman said.

"Uh...Yes?"

"This is the Airlines committee, I'm sorry to say that the plane ,that Austin Carter Mahone has boarded, crashed in the middle of the sea."

My face dropped.Austin dead?! This can't be happening..

"I'm really sorry. He and his mother, together with the other passengers, didn't make it." The woman trailed "I gave you my condolences" then she hung up.

I just stared at the floor blankly. I let myself fall to the couch and let tears fall on my face. Austin....my best friend...my best buddy...dead. I headed to Camila's room to comfort her. Because I know she's the one who's suffering the most.

----------------------------------------------------------

Camila’s POV :

I was crying my eyes out. The love of my life is gone, forever. I grab my pillow and cried into it. It's like my whole world fell apart. My parents are gone when I needed them the most. I was crying while looking at the picture frame beside the lamp. It was a picture of me and Austin on our first date together. I was busy drowning myself from tears that I didn't notice that Lauren came inside my room.

"Hey Camz, It's gonna be alright" Lauren said as she patted my back.

"No it's not !" I snapped causing her to back a little.

"Sshh...Please stop crying" She said as she gently wrap her arms around me.

"I can't" I said as I began to cry on her chest. "Austin's gone, he left me."

"No he didn't"

"He did." I cried "He left me here alone, in this cold world"

"You're wrong" She gently tuck my hair on my ear "He left me with you, which means you're my responsibility."

I cried softly as she gently rocked me back and forth.

"I know you're upset about what happen to Austin, I am too."

"I don't wanna live anymore." I cried. "Lauren, I wanna die"

"Please don't say that, Camz" She cooed. " Please, don't"

I just continued crying on Lauren's chest.The pain in the chest won't go away.I know that it’ll stay there forever.

Lauren’s POV :

2 weeks has past after we received the unexpected death of my Bestfriend. Camila's parents came home at a shock when they saw her laying on the bed with sleeping pills. They sent her to the hospital and the doctor said that she's overdosed with drugs. I couldn't help but pity her. Especially if you care deeply about the person.

She was now presently at home, sitting on the chair outside their backyard. Her face is pale and she's not her usual self-anymore. So I decided to give her a visit.

I knocked gently at their door and was greeted by a worried Mrs. Cabello.

"Hey, Mrs. Cabello" I started "Can I see Camila?"

She sighed "She's at the backyard, Sweetie."

"Thanks" I smiled.

I made my way towards where she's sitting and tapped her back gently. She faced me with a gloomy expression and continues to stare at a distance.

"Everyone's getting worried, Camz" I patted her back.

She sighed, "Austin's gone"

"I know. But Austin doesn't wanna see you like this." I said "Not like this"

I slowly kissed her forehead and hugged her tight. She hugged back and began to cry again making her red puffy eyes becoming more redder. I gently patted her back as she cried on my chest.

---------------------------------------------------------

The next day was still not normal.I found myself sleeping next to Camila who was crying her eyes out last night. I slowly went downstairs and found her Mom and Dad sitting on the living room. Her Mom's expression was so gloomy with her Dad who's comforting her. I knew they were both worried about their daughter. I was about to leave when her Mom called me.

"Lauren sweetie? Can you come here please?" Camila's Mom said.

I slowly walk towards the living room.They signaled me to sit down so I did.

"We need your help sweetie." She said to me."I need to you to bring back the old Camila"

"Huh?"

"Please Lauren, Your our only option." Her Dad said.

"O-Okay, I'll try my best" I said.

Camila's mom suddenly hugged me tight. She let go and kissed me on the cheek. Guess I have a new mission for today.I, Lauren Michele Jauregui Morgado, needed to help Karla Camila Cabello get back in her own feet.

---------------------------------------------------------

I quickly went to my house to change and went back to the Cabello's residence. I slowly entered Camila's dark room and found that she's already awake. I opened the window and let the sun shine on her room again.

"What are you doing, Lauren?" She hissed.

"I just figured that it's too dark here" I smirked.

"Leave me alone"

"I can't do that" I continued picking pieces of papers and throw them all in the trash can. "Besides, Imma take you somewhere."

"I don't wanna" she said.

"Don't be stubborn" I said grabbing her hand "Please, for me?"

She let out a big sigh and slowly nodded her head.

"Great!" I said as I opened the door. "Meet me downstairs if you're ready"

I closed the door to her room and headed downstairs
