I'll keep you to myself

It's not gonna be easy.

Spending her whole day with Emily Lauren can't remove the smile on her face especially with Camila on her side, she don't know why but every-time Camila look at her she saw something in her eyes that makes her feel happy and content, she turn around when she heard Camila's voice,

"Hey Lo come on here, dinners ready."

Looking at Camila she smile and took Emily's hand with her to walk inside the kitchen where she saw camila helping her mom prepare the table.

"Camz I didn't know your already down here I thought you're in your room." Sitting down she look at Camila.

"Uhm I just thought of helping Clara prepare the table so you can spend more time with Emily." Also sitting right in front of Lauren she smile and wink at her.

"Oh that's so nice of you, thanks camz but you don't have to do that." Blushing she took a glass of juice.

"Yeah but I already did." She laughs "so let's just enjoy this wonderful meal that Clara made for us.

Feeling Camila's eyes on her Lauren just busied herself handing Emily everything she needs and occasionally answer her moms questions, after dinner Clara offer to tuck Emily in bed, Camila help Lauren do the dishes after everything's done at the kitchen Lauren offer Camila a coffee.

"Here's your coffee, thank you for today camz." Sitting in the couch she hand Camila a cup of coffee.

"For what?" Sipping on her coffee she look at Lauren with confuse look.

"For everything, for driving all the way here for spending your day playing with Emily I know she somehow drains your energy." She smile and gave Camila a genuine smile she's really thankful with everything Camila had done today.

"She's a special, your lucky to have her as your daughter Lo." Looking straight at Lauren's eyes she smile.

Seeing how Lauren's face change looking away from from her Lauren inhale deeply and murmur something, Camila open her mouth to ask but got cut off when someone knock on the door.

Lauren excuse herself to check who's on the door, following Lauren to the door she stop on her teach when she saw a woman hugging Lauren tightly, she look at them feeling a sudden pain in her chest she turn on her heels and about to go back when Lauren call he up.

"Hey Camila come here, I want you to meet my best friend Normani." Lauren smile at her and let Normani in.

"Hi Camila it's nice to meet you." Smiling she reach out her hand to meet shook Camila's hand.

"Uhm uh yeah same here." Trying to act normal she shook normani's hand.

"Let's go inside so I can get you something to drink." Lauren ushered Normani in while Camila follow behind them.

While Lauren is preparing normani's drink Camila sat back on her previous spot on the couch sipping her coffee she notice Normani's eyes are looking at her intently.

"Uhm so are you Lauren's girlfriend?" Looking at the girl in front of her Normani check furrow her brow when she saw how Camila nearly choked herself.

"Wha-what? I Uhm no she- I'm one of her student." Shock with normani's sudden question she cringe when she realized that she just admit to Normani that she's Lauren's student, not that she wanted to hide it but as much as possible she don't want herself to be stablished as Lauren's student.

"Oh I'm sorry I thought your her-." Normani got cut out when Lauren appear with cup of coffee in her hand she hand.

"What are you guys talking about?" Handing Normani her coffee she sat back on the couch on look at the both girls questioningly.

"Uhm nothing I'm just asking Camila how's school." Smirking at Lauren Normani sip on her coffee.

"Oh yeah I Uhm forgot to tell you that she's one of my student." Sipping her own coffee she look at Camila.

"So Camila on what year your on now?" Normani ask again.

"Well I'm on my last semester, actually I'm just still in school cause I'm taking masteral." Gaining her confidence back she answered normani's question with smile.

"Oh I see, so your not that young then." Raising her brow she look at Lauren who just roll her eyes at her.

"Yeah I'm 24, how about you?" Seeing how Normani and Lauren look at each other Camila furrow her brow.

"I'm actually 29 same age with Lauren." She look smile at Camila then sip on her coffee again.

Camila just nod her head acknowledging normani's answer but not wanting to speak anymore she stand up and excuse herself.

When Camila is no longer in earshot Lauren playfully slap normani's arm. "What the hell was than mani? and why are you even here?"

"What? I didn't do anything Laur, don't over react about it, and to answer your question I'm here because your mom told me yesterday that you'll be here so I decided to drop by, cause is thought my best friend misses me as well." Faking a sad face she look at Lauren.

"Oh come on mani you know how much I miss you." She smile and give normani a hug.

"Yeah I know you do, I just still don't understand Why do you have to live there just to find them." She let go at Lauren's arms and look at her.

"I just wanna be prepared when the time comes that Emily start to ask question, you know it's not gonna be easy." Looking at normani she smile weakly.

"I know Laur, I know how hard it is but your right Emily deserves to know the truth." She took Lauren's hand and give it a little squeeze, having Lauren as her best friend since high school she know every hardship and struggle Lauren overcome to be where she is today.

After a heartfelt conversation with normani Lauren offer walk her out with a promise of keeping in touch and to visit more often. she's grateful to have normani in her life she stick with her and never leave her side.

Walking back inside the house she put the used coffee cup in the sink then walk up to her room, when she reach her room she lock her door and strip her way down to the bathroom, after a shower she put on her sweat pants and T-shirt, she walk out of her room to check on Emily.

She step inside Emily's room she sit at the chair next to Emily's bed brushing her daughters hair she smile and kiss her on the forehead, she walk out of her daughters room and about to got back in her room when she heard something inside their guest room which Camila is occupying, she frown and decided to check what is going on.

She knock then heard a foot step walking towards the door, a distress Camila open it.
