“I’m going to let that sink in, and let you get ready for tonight…I mean you are saying yes right?” Lauren asked hesitantly. “I mean—You don’t have to say yes…”
“I don’t know Lauren…” Camila answered in a playful tone that Lauren did not catch.
“It’s oka—“ Camila cut her off.
“You didn’t even ask me anything.” Camila smirked at Lauren’s nervousness.
“Wha—-Ohhh”
Lauren finally understood. Camila wanted a cheesy and romantic proposal. She wanted to be asked out, officially.
“Okay, okay, let me do it again then.” Lauren closed the door and waited a couple of seconds before knocking again. When she did so, Camila opened the door.
“Oh, Hi Lauren!” Camila laughed as she greeted with a little too much enthusiasm.
“Camila Cabello, will you please give me the honor of taking you out on a date tonight?” Lauren asked, over exaggerating.
“Oh Lauren, how sweet and cute of you. Of couuuuuuuurseee, I would loooooooooove to.” Camila was just teasing her now.
“Oh shut it short stack.” Lauren reached out to mess up Camila’s hair.
“HEY! Maybe I won’t go on the date then gosh…”
“By ready by 7. Okay? I have to go get everything ready.” And with that, Lauren left and called Brad to tell him everything that happened. After he teased and congratulated her, she went to get everything ready. She has 5 hours.
*~*~*~*~*
It’s now 6 o’ clock and both girls are ready to go. Lauren was nervous. Nervous was an understatement. In the middle of setting everything up, she started over thinking the value of this date. Does Camila think this is just a friend date? Or does she know that this is a date, date? Should I tell her? And questions like that kept flooding her mind. She knew no matter what, she was going to tell Camila about her feelings. She knew that Camila needed to know. She just hoped for the best.
By 7 o’ clock, everything was set up, both girls were glammed and ready, and Lauren was in front of Camila’s bedroom door about to knock. Deep breathes Jauregui. You can do this. She knocks and hears the little pitter patter of Camila’s feet running to the door.
“Woah.”
“I know” Camila answered cockily. (A/N: ;)(; *faking it reference*) Camila is wearing a pair of high waisted shorts with her letterman jacket with a “c” on it. Simple, but Lauren loved it.
Lauren scoffed, “You’re full of yourself. Ready to go?” Camila nodded and hooked her arm around Lauren’s.
“Let’s go.”
*~*~*~*~*
They are now in Lauren’s car; Lauren driving and Camila in the passenger seat. They’ve been driving in a comfortable silence, with the radio on, since they left the apartment, which was about 25 minutes ago. It took 25 minutes for Lauren to gather enough courage to reach over and grab Camila’s hand. There was no hesitation when Camila intertwined their fingers. From the corner of Lauren’s eye, she saw Camila smile and look out the window, blushing furiously. Both Lauren and Camila’s faces were hurting due to the big ass smiles on their faces.
Finally, they reached their destination, The Griffith Park Observatory. Once they parked, Camila practically jumped out of the car and almost tripped.
“Calm down before you hurt yourself, Camz” Lauren chuckled.
“We’re at the observatory!”
