Lauren's POV

I woke up feeling weird. People were still talking about Camila and I on every social media. There wasn't much to do about it and I was actually starting to like it.

- Good morning kid - my dad said when I sat down for breakfast with him and my mom.

- How was it with Camila yesterday? - My mom asked even tho it was obvious she saw the photos.

- If you know I was with Camila I think you know every step I took. The paparazzi covered it all.

I drunk some coffee and looked at my phone, one whatsapp notification.

- How are you feeling about it? - Mike asked looking at me.

- I'm cool. It's no big deal.

- Are you two dating? - my mom asked and I took a long breath

- Why does everybody thinks I'm dating Camila? I just wanted some ice cream, for God's sake!

- Well, it looked a little romantic, that's all.

I rolled my eyes. Another whatsapp notification. I opened it and both messages were from Camila.

Camz: "hey, good morning

is it weird that I feel like we are back to 2016 again? With the whole camren thing"

Me: "I have the impression people were shipping camren on our backs all these years and this was just an opportunity for them to come to light"

- You heard me, Lauren? - Clara asked irritated.

- Hm... yes

- You're lying. I asked at what time is your flight

- It's 8 am

- See? Told you. Chris can take her to the airport - My mom said to my dad. It's crazy because only now I remembered that I'm going back to LA on a week.

Camz: "HAHAHA that's probably true."

I finished my breakfast, washed the dishes and went to the living room. Taylor was still sleeping so it was silent, that's rare.

Me: "I had fun yesterday. Can't remember last time I saw the sunset on the beach"

Camz: "same here. also you are the only person I know who wears a leather jacket on the hottest day of the month without passing away. Congrats"

Me: "lol it's a ability I worked hard to achieve"

Camz: "you looked good tho. reminded me of old times"

Camila's POV

I wasn't feeling well since my talk with Shawn. Let's just say it didn't end well.

He can't understand how hard this is to me. I love him, but to be honest things weren't good for some time now. Don't hear me wrong, he is a nice guy but like I told Lauren, this life he wanted wasn't for me.

Lolo: "I do it a lot these days." - a notification came up and I opened it to answer.

Me: "What?"

Lolo: "Thinking about the old times"

So do I, Lauren, so do I....

I looked in the window, the weather was changing. The always blue sky of Miami was turning grey, a lot of clouds were coming.
