"You should go home, get some rest."
"I'm not going anywhere." Camila frowned deeply and Y/N took a deep breath.
Camila still had a scowl on her face to express how deeply upset she was but Y/N was only confused by it all. They were both currently sitting in Y/NN's room on her bed and the announcement was still fresh on their minds. They had spent an additional couple hours just discussing on how this road was gonna feel. Especially the route of treatment to kill off the cancer cells.
Camila's parents eventually started to get worried and called her several times but she wasn't ready to put it into words. Not until they were all driving home and Camila practically whispered it through the phone. They immediately stopped the badgering and felt incredibly concerned and saddened by the news. They knew Y/N was everything to Camila, even if they wanted their own daughter to find herself on her own.
"Why are you so angry?" Y/N then whispered with soft eyes and a small pout against her plump lips.
Camila stopped breathing for a second and had felt an ache in her chest. She didn't want Y/N to think that she was angry with her, it wasn't her fault she was like this. It was no one's fault. She just had this anger in general. It wasn't fair.
"I'm not." Camila simply let out and Y/N cracked a smile with a small laugh.
"Alright." Y/N nodded gently as she looked back at her hands and Camila knew she wasn't the type to dwell on things.
Camila knew Y/N wouldn't ask more questions if she felt the tension around a situation. She didn't wanna upset anyone even further, she'd wait a little until they were more calm. So, Camila put her pride aside knowing Y/N would just wait around.
"Because it's not fair." Camila then whispered which Y/NN caught onto and she stopped fiddling with her hand.
"I'm sorry." Camila apologized ashamed that she made Y/N feel bad over something she couldn't control at all.
Y/N let Camila lay her head against her shoulder and Camila could still smell the very slight scent of beer on her. Y/N tried her best to figure out what to say... she really had no idea what to do or say. She wasn't necessarily sad but she wasn't happy about the news either. She was more so afraid but she wasn't gonna share that, she knew she could ride out this wave like everything else. She had to.
"Hey." Y/N whispered against Camila's head and Camila just sat there listening to her speak up.
"I'm okay." She truthfully told Camila as she also grabbed her hand to interlock their fingers, "I know it's not the best news in the world but I'm right here, okay? I'm the same person I was before and I'm gonna continue to be. Look at me."
Camila moved her head back to look her best friend in the eyes and she saw so much raw sincerity in her eyes. Y/N truly believed she was okay and Camila needed that, Camila knew she wasn't saddened or upset. Camila was blown away at how strong the girl she loved was. But at the same time she wanted to know if she was hurting. She was gonna be there every damn step of the way and there was absolutely nothing anyone could say about it.
"It's you and I." Y/N smiled softly as she squeezed Camila's hand, "And we're gonna live this damn life to the fullest."
"I'll make sure of it." She finished and raised Camila's hand to kiss it.
Camila's heart pounded harshly against her chest and she let her eyes wander into Y/N's once again. No barriers between them and Y/N then again showed that charming little smile.
"You know... at least it's not a cold." Y/N said without any context and continued quite quickly, "I can't infect you with that nasty cough of mine." She smirked just to nudge Camila slightly.
