If only you knew (Camren)

Chapter 21

Camila's POV
(I don't think Lauren's phobia of spiders is true, I just made it up)
"Camila! No! Go away!" Lauren squealed at me as I chased her around the room with a fake spider that must have been from a christmas cracker which she thought was real. She's always had a phobia of spiders so when I found it in the bottom of the Christmas tree box I had to take the chance while I got it.
Lauren's family had gone up to the shops to do some shopping before Christmas leaving me and Lauren alone to put up the decorations. We knew that they wouldn't get put up very quick or the way the rest of the Jauregui family would want it but we still offered.
I still had the fake spider in my hand and Lauren decided to take the chase into the kitchen. She was stood one end of the room and I stood the other, there was no way she could get out because I was blocking the only exit. Finally I had kind of trapped her.
"Camz, please put the fucking spider outside" she ordered and tried to stay calm. I could tell she was panicking because of the breaths she was taking as well as the consistent gulps.
I walked closer to her and she stepped back all the way to the kitchen worktop until she was practically sat on it. I kept walking closer to her in little steps while I still had the plastic spider cupped in my hands.
"Please camila, im begging you take it out side" she begged as I took another step towards her. Before I knew it she ran straight past me almost knocking me over and went straight up the stairs. I opened the door to the back of the house and out I was taking the creature outside so then Lauren would come back downstairs
"Lauren it's gone, ive put it outside" I shouted up the stairs. I saw her head peep from behind a door
"You sure?" She questioned me
"Yeah I'm sure" I lied. Little did she know I had it in my pyjama bottom pocket so I could get her with it later.
We got the christmas tree up eventually, I was in charge of untangling the light and she was on bauble duty. Once I had sorted out the lights I wrapped it around the tree with a little help from Lauren and we both got some tinsel to add more colour. We put on all of the baubles Lauren had sorted so all that was left now was the star.
"You can put it on if you want" she told me
"No, it's your house, your tree so you can do it" I stated
"Okay then" she agreed and finished the tree off by putting the silver star on the top.
Finally we had finished all of the Christmas decorations and we decided to go and get changed out of our pyjamas. Lauren leant me some of her sweats and a t-shirt and I got changed as she cleaned up the remaining boxes of christmas things downstairs. I remembered to transfer the spider from the pyjamas to my current clothes so I could scared my girlfriend.
Once I had done I went downstairs to help her carry some empty boxes.
"Hey, do you think you can carry these up while I get changed?"Lauren asked me
"Alright" I agreed and followed her upstairs with a couple boxes in my arms. She went into the bedroom and I put the boxes into the spare room. She was changed pretty quick and soon emerged from her bedroom holding two snap backs.
"My hairs a mess, I think you should wear one too so then we are matching" she told me while she showed me her outfit which was pretty much the same as mine.
"Aww you want to go all matching do you?" I teased as I took the hat out of her hand and put it on my head while she was playfully glaring at me
"Front or backwards?" asked her
"Backwards, makes you look cute" she admitted
"You put it backwards to, if we're going to be matching" I mocked her once again
"Leave me alone" she said and shook he head while she made her way down the stairs and into the living room
"Fine I'll go if you really want me to" i told her and started to unlock the front door
"No don't go!" She protested which made me laugh.
"But you just said.." I got put before she cut me off
"I was joking!" She stated
"I know, I know calm down babe" I told her and sat on her knee now she was sat on the sofa.
"Babe?" She asked and raised her eyebrow
"Yeah, I remember you called me it in the airport and I like it" I told her with a smile
"I like it too" she admitted.
She took her phone out of her pocket and opened up the camera.
"Smileeee" she told me and took a quick picture of us both in our snap backs. "Think the fans need a little Camren selfie before Christmas don't Ya think?" She asked me
"Go for it" I encouraged. She typed a few things on her phone and put her phone away. I then took mine out and looked at the new tweet from the girl sat next to me
"Me and camz was left in charge of christmas decorations...sure was eventful" I read the tweet out loud.
"Eventful? We didn't do anything" I chuckled
"Well you did chase me with that spider, that was pretty eventful" she told me. Thankfully because of that she reminded me.
"Ooh! I have something for you" I told her while I tried to hide my smirk
"Erm okay" She said sounding confused
"Close your eyes and hold your hands out" I ordered her and moved off her knee onto the other side of the sofa because I could predict that I would be literally thrown the other side of the room if I had remained on her knee.
"Where have you gone?" She asked me
"Don't worry I just moved seats ive not done a runner" I laughed. I moved her hands and directed her to twist her body to face me. I got the plastic creature and placed on her hand. "Don't open them yet!" I quickly told her. "Before you see this I want you to know that I love you so so so much and I never will stop loving you" I told her and got my phone out to record her reaction. I clicked record and coughed so I could I cover up the bleep.
"Haha okay, I know you do, can I look now?" she asked
"Sure" I told her and prepared myself for a loud scream. I saw her open her eyes and her facial expression was priceless. "SHIT!" She screamed and threw her hands in the air as well as her body off the sofa leaving me in fits of laughter. She ran as fast as she could out of the room and slipped on the floor in the process which made me laugh even harder. The camera was still focused on Lauren as she scurried up onto her feet and made her way for the door. I chased after her and saw a very panicky Lauren sat on the grass out side
"I fucking hate you Camila cabello!" She shouted "you scared the shit out of me! Oh my fucking God that was some fucking scary shit!" She cursed
"Lauren watch your language!" I warned her
"What do you expect?!" She said to me while holding her heart. I stopped the video from recording and walked up to her
"I'm sorry Lauren. I was fake i would never put a real on in you hands" I told her now getting a little concerned because she had gone really pale
"It's alright, I know I should be pissed at you but I can't wait to watch that video" she said
"Are you okay? You've gone really pale" I asked her
"Oh yeah don't worry I'm fine, I go like this when I get really shook up" she laughed
"Come on let's go inside" I told her and helped her onto her feet. I took hold of her hand and I could still feel her trembling. She made her way back to the sofa and looked across at the fake spider that had been flung across the room. I picked it up and threw it in the bin. "Thanks" she said. I went and sat next to her and saw that the colour was slightly coming back into her face but she was still trembling
"I'm sorry, I feel really bad now,I didn't know it would effect you so much" I apologised
"It's okay don't worry about it. Trust me I'll get you back" she said and smirked at me.
"Now come closer and let me watch that video" she ordered. I unlocked my phone and clicked play.
We laughed so hard at the video and Lauren's many facial expressions.
"Think this needs to go onto Twitter do t you think?" I asked her
"Okay, it'll be a laugh" she agreed
I posted the video and waited for my phone to literally blow up with tweet about Camren.
