Life finds a way

A/N: Lads, ladies and nb peeps, I HAVE LE ANNOUNCEMENT:

I AM NO LONGER ACCEPTING PROMPTS FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.

(Purely cos I have like two pages worth to work on atm)

----

Request from @Silwar1 on Wattpad: what if Lauren and Camila were together in college, but separated because Camila got into a very good art school and Lauren became a pediatrician. 7 years later Lauren has Camila's daughter as a patient

----

Camila had never felt her heart break as much as that day.

The day she watched Lauren wipe her eyes and walk away.

They loved each other to the end of the world and back. But Lauren had insisted; Camila had natural born talent in art, she was good at it and when the California Institute of the Arts offered her a scholarship, it was a no-brainer.

Lauren was staying in Miami.

Camila had pleaded they try long distance.

And they did.

For seven months they facetimed and called everyday, if they weren't talking they were texting. They visited each other every month, taking turns.

No one can say they didn't try.

Unfortunately, the work started to get more, the facetimes got less and the texting became excuses.

It wasn't their fault. Long distance was hard enough but add in the stress of school? 

They loved each other to the end of the world and back.

But it wasn't enough.

7 years later

Lauren was tired. She'd spent the past two days at work.

Truth was she was avoiding her apartment; her ex was supposed to have moved her stuff out but she was taking forever and Lauren didn't really wanna see her.

So instead she was working herself to the bone. It'd been a tough journey to become a pediatrician and she was making the most of it.

The hours dragged into days sometimes and if Ally hadn't appeared with her final appointment, Lauren thinks she may have fallen asleep.

"Lauren, how long have you been here?"

"A couple days." Lauren yawned.

"Last one of the day out here, then I'm getting Mani to drive you the heck home." Ally said sternly, her eyes narrowing. Lauren nodded before rubbing her eyes and stretching.

She pulled up the file for her last patient and tried to stifle a yawn, eyes blearily reading the information; kid had broken his leg playing with his friends. She was the first up to see him since the cast had been put on a few weeks ago.

Lauren didn't even check anything other than the kid's name; Kevin.

She was looking down at her notes when her door opened and she heard murmurings. There was the telltale clicking of crutches and she plastered on a smile before looking up.

And the world stopped.

There, walking into her office, helping her son hobble to a chair, was Camila Cabello. Ex-girlfriend and love of her life.

And wow did she look incredible.

It'd been seven years.

The moment Camila looked up and made eye contact, Lauren could see the instant stunned look on her face.
