Sing To Me

Chapter 17

Lauren POV

Camila and I got back early evening yesterday. When I got to my house it was the same thing as usual. I walk through the living room without one word being said. There was occasional screams but it wasn't at me.

I went straight to sleep which caused me to wake up two hours early for school. I used this opportunity to get ready for school and check out social media.

I notice a notification by my direct messages, so I click on it. Why would Megan send me something through Twitter?

@Megan - Austin, Ally, and Becky all follow you now. I officially hate you.

Serious? Did she really have to send me that? I could care less if Austin and Becky follow me. Even if she is joking about the message it was harsh and pointless.

I go through my timeline and saw Camila tweet a couple of times last night.

@KcCabello - Two weeks until I'm back up on stage! I can't wait to see you all.

I remember her saying all her concerts weren't being cancelled when she cancelled her tour. I guess I should have figured the one close to here would be one that isn't.

There was another tweet right under that one from her as well.

@KcCabello- Working on a new song! May or may not perform it soon!!!

I click the favorite button. I'm sure whatever she writes will be wonderful.

I grab my bag that is extra heavy since I have every book from my locker since I missed Friday. I pull it over my shoulder and walk to school.

I get there early so I sat down against my locker and read Divergent.

"That is an interesting book." I take my eyes off the page and look up at Camila who was in the process of taking a seat by me.

"You've read it?"

She nods. "Yeah, that's my life when I'm away. Reading is a nice way to escape. I start reading a book and pretend to be the characters. I'm a nerd, I know."

I let out a light chuckle. "You kind of are a nerd, but at least you are a cute nerd." She turns her head from me, but I could still see the blush forming on her cheeks. "What's your favorite book series?"

"I really like Harry Potter." She grabs her phone and shows me a picture. "I'm going to be him for Halloween, but keep that on the down low. I don't want anyone jacking my style."

I roll my eyes, "I'll be sure to make a public announcement. Hey everyone..."

Instantly Camila flew on my lap and uses her hand to cover my mouth. "Don't you dare Jauregui."

I peel her hand off of my lips. "Relax Cabello, no one is even around."

She looks up and down the halls. "You think you are funny?"

I would laugh, but suddenly I get nervous realizing she is still on my lap. "Are you planning on sitting on my lap all day? People might get the wrong impression of you."

With my comment I was expecting her to hop off, but instead she wraps her arms around my neck. "People always talk. I've learned that already."

Her face was so close to mine. I'm starting to think she knows the effect she has on me and she likes to use it against me.
