Cold-Blooded

One Knee

Camila's POV

I fix my hair and finally walk out of the restroom. I put on my earrings and finally give a one over before walking down the stairs towards the living room. Lauren stands up from the couch as soon as she lays eyes on me.

"God, you look so beautiful," Lauren walks closer to me.

"Nothing compared to you. Ready to go?" I grin.

"Of course!" Lauren grabs her bag and slips her hand into mine that I held out.

We walk out to Lauren's car and she hands me the keys. I get in the driver's side after helping Lauren in. I pull out and start driving to the location of Louis' cottage.

Once we finally arrive I get out and help Lauren out. "Well isn't this romantic," Lauren smiles.

"And hella cliche," I add receiving a punch. "Ow."

I open the door with the spare key and throw it open. Lauren steps in with me just right behind her. Lauren's green eyes light up at the romantic set up but then laughs. "Pizza and wine huh?" She teases, a coy smile playing on her lips.

"Yeah..." I laugh.

"You can be so cliche," Lauren smiles.

"Probably because you like cliche although you deny it," I take her hands In mine.

"You know me too well," Lauren pulls me in pressing her lips with mine in a tender kiss.

"Now how about that pizza and wine?" I giggle against her lips.

"Ugh, you know how to ruin a moment," Lauren playfully rolls her eyes.

We sit down on the table across from each other as I open the pizza box revealing the deliciousness inside. Lauren pops open the wine and pours a fair amount into both glasses. She hands one over to me which I gladly take.

I take a tiny sip keeping my soft eyes connected with Lauren's. Lauren keeps the contact then reaches for a slice. She hands me one and I smile. I bite down ripping off a piece and chewing it.

"Hmm. Okay now, this is delicious," Lauren moans.

"Hella," I add.

We eat and talk for an hour and a half until it's finally the last slice. We both reach out for it and grab it. I look at Lauren with a glare.

"I call dibs!" We both say. We both stand up still keeping the pizza in our grasp.

"Lauren I swear to God..." I mumble.

"Camila let it go..." She matches my tone.

"I got an idea how about we share it?" I suggest.

"No why?" Lauren raises an eyebrow.

"Probably because I can't wait to share everything else in my life with you," I said.

"What?" Lauren asks.

I let go of the pizza and take out the box dropping on one knee. Lauren gasps covering her mouth with one hand.

"You told me not too long ago to marry you. I said I'd love to, well, I meant it. I just wanted it to be proper. Lauren, you make me feel alive in a different way than I believe, I never gave up on you and my love for you. Not even after you left I never fell in love with anyone else. I never wanted anyone else. I've been meaning to tell you this but I just didn't want to sound needy or desperate. Don't leave me, Lauren, I don't want you to leave me again because I can't imagine anyone else by my side. Lauren Michelle, will you marry me?"

"I would love to marry you, Karla Camila," Lauren smiles.

I slip the ring on her finger then a matching one on my own and stand up. Once our lips connect, stronger electricity flows through us. Lauren moans into my mouth feeling all my love sore through her in just this one kiss.

Once I finally pull away both our breaths mismatched. "I love you, baby," I whisper.

"I love you too," Lauren whispers.

"Let me show you. Let me love you," I caress her cheekbone.

"There's nothing in this world that will ever show how much I love you. Not a word, an action."

"Highly agree. But let me love you. I didn't believe in soulmates until you came into my life. I didn't believe in true love until you came into my life," I smile.

"God you have a way with words that nobody else has," Lauren connects our lips.

I don't hesitate to kiss back as it gradually gets hotter and deeper. My hands start to roam along with hers and I pull away to whisper. "Let's go to the bedroom..." I mumbled.

"Lead the way," Lauren smiles.

I take her hand and lead her into the bedroom. I pin her against the door my hand flying to the zipper of her dress, stripping it off. I lay the green-eyed girl down on the bed as I climb on top of her kissing slowly and lovingly down her neck, her collarbone, the valley of her breast.

"I never knew I was easy to love till you came along," I whisper.

"That's what I intend and you make me feel the same."

I connect our lips once more hearing the calming waves of the ocean from outside, the bright, beautiful moonlight peering into the small cracks of the blinds as the kiss deepens.
