On an abrupt, ill-advised vacation from Los Angeles, Camila trips right into Lauren Jauregui, a local shop owner in faded red shorts. It starts with surfboards and a jellyfish sting. Camren AU.

"Going well so far," Lauren murmurs. "Your parents and your little sister. They think I'm a great girlfriend." "You are," Camila agrees. Or: The time Camila really needed a date to a family wedding, and who better to fill the role of fake-girlfriend than Camila's best friend Lauren?

After seeing the aftermath of a wild party she threw, Camila's parents feel like the only option left to deal with with their daughter's rebel behavior is military school. At this school, she is exposed to a whole new world of strict rules and emotionless people commanding them. Though she is intimidated by it, she quickly seeks comfort in her roommate, the alpha female there, Lauren Jauregui. Her journey will teach her how to love, work hard, and value life along with giving her a new kind of strong: army strong.

Falling in love was the best and worst thing that ever happened to Camila. Lauren was beautiful, smart, passionate and, unfortunately for Camila, married.

It's been a year since Lauren decided to break out from Fifth Harmony to start her own band, and Camila still hasn't forgiven her for leaving them, and for leaving her. After a brief encounter at an award show, their lives come crashing back together. Angst, Drama, Humour, Romance, and everything else in between. ----- S/O to SLOTHTATO for the awesome Cover!

(I'VE BEEN EDITING THIS AND SO FAR, I'VE ONLY DONE THE FIRST 4 CHAPTERS) Lauren Jauregui is the epitome of independence. She could do whatever she wanted without seeking for help. She has a family by her side, a boyfriend who spoils her and just enough friends to feel social. Because of her mother's job, Lauren was forced to move several times in last four years of her life which made any form of attachment nearly impossible. Now, at 18, she was back to her hometown. Despite the strong and responsible girl everyone else sees, the green-eyed brunette never believed anybody who ever said she was beautiful, let alone perfect. In fact, she never thought anyone was perfect. That was until she met an equally independent and self-reliant, Camila Cabello who had hidden insecurities of her own.
