The art of being a beard (Camila/You)

Chapter 17

Narrator's POV

"Good morning, Y/N/N."

Y/N buried her face and groaned out loud. She thought she's told Ally to fuck off clearly enough yesterday, but apparently not. Without even bothering to give her a reply, she just stalked off to the opposite direction of where the voice came from.

Obviously, Ally wouldn't let her leave like that. She huffed to herself and quickly caught up to the novelist. "Have you seen the news this morning?" she asked, figuring that'll make it easier for her.

The Y/E/C-eyed girl stopped dead in her tracks and finally turned around to face her. "No. Did it announce that you're off the cast of this movie?"

Ally rolled her eyes. "It's about your little girlfriend."

The novelist looked at her with so much confusion to the point where she just wanted to punch herself in the face. Why is she waiting for her to elaborate what was on the news when she could just check it herself?

She went to pull out her phone, but the shorter girl stopped her. Just when she wanted to scold at her for that, she got another screen pushed into her face.

Camila Cabello and Normani spotted on A DATE together last night?!

Y/N just shook her head at the title of the article. "People love to create shit all the time. I knew they were hanging out last night," she said with an eye roll.

"Yeah, but have you seen these pics?"

A set of pictures taken last night was then shown to the Y/E/C-eyed girl. The first one was just then smiling and laughing in a booth. Then it was Camila leaning to Normani. In the next one, Camila was playing with Normani's fingers. And then the last one was Camila with her hand on Normani's lap and leaning pretty close to her.

Y/N hated to admit it but she felt the jealousy boil inside her blood. So this is why she was being so off last night... Even when they were making love, it still felt like Camila wasn't there 100%.

Was that even making love? Or was it really just some ordinary, meaningless sex? Was she overvaluing this relationship too, just like she did with her relationship with Ally that actually wasn't that serious?

This was all fucking with her head very bad and before she knew it, she's already jumped into the first cab and drove back to the brunette's apartment.

She quickly stormed into the house, surprising the shit out of Camila.

The singer perked up from the couch before slowly making her way over to her. "Hi... You came back early."

"Be honest with me, what happened with you and Normani last night?" Y/N asked. Her heart was beating faster every moment and she honestly felt like throwing up right now.

Camila's eyes flashed guilt for a second. "W-we just had pizza at this place, I told you that."

The Y/E/C-eyed girl opened her phone and showed her the pics Ally had shown her earlier. "You were literally sitting in her," she spat out as she pushed the phone into her chest.

The brunette grabbed it as her face was filled with pure confusion. She never watches the news and she barely ever checks her social media, so most of the time, these things were just informed to her by her manager or something.

Her eyes widened as she saw the pictures that were taken last night. From this angle, they definitely looked way cozier than they actually were.

"It's not what it looks like. We didn't do anything, I promise," Camila quickly said.
