Malibu Love

XLVIII

"How's my favorite girl feeling today?" Camila asks as she enters Lauren's car

"Tired."

Camila lets out a giggle. "And what did you do today?"

"Nothing." Lauren groans "I went to see my mom after I dropped you off and I kind of took a nap at her place. After that, I took Xavier to the park and we ate lunch. I went to see Ally and buy some muffins because I had cravings and then I came to pick you up."

"Did you bring me any muffin?" Camila asks excitedly

Lauren mumbles something to herself and Camila turns around to face her.

"What was that? I didn't quite hear you?"

"I didn't, I forgot." Lauren mumbles, this time a bit louder

And Camila would be mad if she could, but Lauren looks so cute at the moment that she just can't.

"Mhm, of course you did."

"I'm sorry Camz, I'll buy you some if you want, right now?"

"Deal, take me on a date Jauregui."

So, Lauren does.

She takes her to the pastry shop where Ally works and they sit down for a coffee and cookies.

Camila's in the middle of telling a funny story from one of her classes that day when she catches Lauren staring at her.

"What are you staring at doofus?"

"You." Lauren replies bluntly

"Well, obviously, care to explain why?"

"You're beautiful and I'm in love with you."

Camila's cheek turn red and she smiles at er girlfriend. "You're making me blush."

"I can see that, you still look beautiful. Actually, you always look beautiful."

"Even when I'm wearing oversized sweatshirt, sweatpants and my hair is a mess? No make up what so ever?"

"Mhm, especially then."

"Okay, now I know you're lying."

"I'm not," Lauren lets out a giggle "I mean it, my love."

And Camila knows that Lauren means it, she knows that the older girl adores her and how madly Lauren is in love with her. But it doesn't mean she still isn't surprised whenever Lauren does something like this.

"I know you do."

"Every word of it."

"I know."

"Always, okay?"

"Even when I'm old and wrinkly and my hair is grey and I forget to put on my clothes before going to the store because I'm senile?"

"Even then." Lauren laughs and it's the music for Camila's ears

"Good, I'd like that."

"Being senile?" Lauren arches an eyebrow

"You just ruined the perfect moment." Camila huffs and crosses her arms across her chest

"It was only perfect because we made it like that, there's plenty of moments we can take and make perfect again."

"Perhaps."

"Are you done with your muffins?"

Camila looks at the empty plate in front of her and nods.

"Mhm, are we leaving?"
