Experiments

Chapter 13

"I'm starting to think you like the idea of getting caught," Lauren teased, letting out a small moan as Camila's teeth scraped lightly against her skin.

"Maybe," Camila grinned, sliding her hands to the curves beneath Lauren's waist as she lifted her head to meet the pair of green eyes looking back at her. "Is that so bad? If anything they'd just be jealous of how hot my girlfriend is."

Upon hearing that, Lauren pulled on the back of Camila's neck, causing their lips to come crashing back together. Camila smiled when she felt Lauren's tongue run across her bottom lip and she immediately opened her mouth slightly, allowing the girl's muscle to slip inside.

Both girls were out of breath when Lauren finally pulled away. Camila just stood there, her mouth hanging open slightly as she watched Lauren run her fingers through her hair before turning to unlock her door.

"Are you sure you want to study right now?" Camila pouted once Lauren had her door open.

"I never want to study," Lauren sighed. "But I do have to."

"Why?" Camila questioned. "Drop out. Run away with me," she joked dramatically, taking one of Lauren's hands between her own and bringing it to her lips.

Lauren rolled her eyes at Camila before pulling her hand away.

"We've spent the past twenty-four hours together. I don't want you getting sick of me," Lauren smiled.

"Impossible," Camila frowned as she reached for Lauren's hips again, pulling their bodies back together.

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder," Lauren teased as she raised her hand to tuck a loose wave behind Camila's ear.

"Bullshit," Camila huffed, tightening her grip on Lauren's waist. "I'll miss you."

"You'll see me tomorrow," Lauren laughed. "You can think about me until then," she added before leaning in to kiss Camila's lips tenderly. "I'll be thinking about you," she whispered as she briefly slid her hand up the front of Camila's shirt, curling her fingers against her stomach.

"Night Camz," Lauren smiled, leaving another kiss on Camila's cheek before separating their bodies and backing into her room.

"Night," Camila replied breathlessly as she watched the girl's door close. She stood there for a moment, staring at the closed door with a small smile on her lips.

"I love you," she added under her breath, glancing at Lauren's door a final time before finally turning away and walking back toward her room.

And she meant it.

With every passing second, Camila was just becoming surer that she did in fact love Lauren.

(Lauren)

Love.

It was crazy, wasn't it?

Maybe not, Lauren thought.

One could argue that it was a little soon to be throwing that word around seriously, but things between Lauren and Camila had always moved a little fast, as their relationship surely wasn't conventional. At least, it hadn't started out so.

With every passing second, Lauren was just becoming surer that she did in fact love Camila.

And it was becoming increasingly harder to not let it slip.
