After Camila let it be known why she didn't like Lauren and what her problem was with the green eyed beauty things became quite tense between the two. I could tell that Lauren wanted so badly to make Camila her friend and for the girl to understand that she really wasn't as bad as she thought, but Lauren also knew when to leave it alone and let Camila be. Even though it hurt her feelings that Camila didn't like her, Lauren also knew she couldn't force someone to be her friend.

"You ok beautiful?" I asked softly.

Looking up at me Lauren didn't say anything as she pulled me into a tight hug. Signing softly I gently hugged her back. I felt my shirt because wet and I knew she was crying so I held her tighter in my arms as I let her silently cry into my chest. Honestly I didn't know Camila's words would hit her that hard but they did. They really got to her.

Pulling up to Camila's house Lauren reluctantly helped us take everything inside. I could tell by her body language that she didn't want to help us but knowing that I was helping pushed her to also help and even though I know she doesn't want to I really do appreciate her helping.

"Thanks Lo." I said softly.

Looking up at me she smiled a gentle smile as she nods. "You're welcome D." She spoke softly as she set up a few chairs. Walking pass us Camila scuffed and shakes her head as she roughly moved the chairs that Lauren had placed down. "You can't even set up chairs properly. Damn you're useless." She muttered bitterly.

Lauren clenched her jaw as she glares at the girl. "I was lining them up so I could place them in their spot. I know what I'm doing." She said. Camila rolls her eyes. "I'm sure you do." She mumbles coldly. Looking at me Lauren frowns as she shook her head and left the room.

I sighed "can you please try to be nice? Lauren is helping can you just appreciate it?" I asked. "I will never accept help from Jauregui." Camila spoke coldly. "And why not? Lauren has done nothing to you for you to act like this towards her. Grow up Cabello." I snapped.

"I'll grow up when that little bitch stops begging for attention! We all know that's what she wanted when she pulled her stupid stunt." She snaps.

I glared at her. "We both have already explained what happened and the fact that you still don't get it is on you. You just want to see the bad in her for no reason other than she's a Jauregui." I said. "Maybe if you actually looked passed her last name you'd see how great she is."

Camila scuffs, "yeah I'm sure you know her so well. Right Dinah? What did you sleep with her? Did you two fuck? Is that why you're so willing to think of her as this good person because you got something that everyone in school has-"

Her words were cut short by my hand coming across her face in a harsh slap. Holding her cheek we both glared back at each other for what felt like forever before she spoke. "I need to get something from the car." She mutters before walking away quickly.

Running my fingers through my hair I sighed as I closed my eyes. I can't believe I slapped her. I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't have hit her.

"Well that was unexpected." Lauren spoke softly as she stood next to me.

I nodded "yeah I didn't mean to do that. I just didn't like how she was talking about you." I said. Lauren nods as she gently locked our fingers together. "I know but honestly what she said I've heard before so it doesn't really both me anymore." She tells me. "I understand that but it still wasn't right." I told her. She smiled "you're too kind Dinah. Thank you for being so nice." She said. I smiled back at her. "You're welcome Lo."
