When Two Become One (A Camren Fanfic)

Worth It

'Uh oh, water works' i quipped swatting them away, as her deep brown eyes poured into my watery green ones. 'Well then i would like to thank you, for you know your general existence, for breathing , being born, you know actually could i call your parents i want to thank them for conceiving you' i joked. 'But seriously, thank you for noticing me, and seeing whatever you saw that made you think this seemed like a good idea. I could never have created that.'

'Actually you sorta did' she stated matter of factly...? 'You were born, i was born - fate happened. You know the story about Madame and Eve?' she quirked. 

'Ah yes that well known tale, my mother read it too me every night when i was a little girl' i laughed. Our playful little banter came to a halt as the shrill tone of Camila's phone echoed throughout the rink. She rolled her eyes as she pulled it out of her pocket and Dinah's name lit up the screen. I gestured for her to take it, putting it on speaker as we stood motionless on the ice. 

'Hey D Mac, if you'd have called any earlier i might have had to kill you' she spoke into the device.

'Oooh getting naughty with the bae are we? I wanna hear all the gory details and you know a name would be nice! Who is this mystery person, are they still with you?' Dinah asked excitedly. 

'Yeah they're here, i'll try to fill you in as much as i can later i promise. So what's going on, i hope you didn't just call to check up' Another voice could be heard in the background, as the phone made a shuffling noise. 

'Hey Mila, it's Normani. I don't suppose Lauren has texted you, her group have been breathing down our necks for the past couple of hours trying to find out where she is-' I pulled out my phone to see a handful of missed calls and messages. They're pissed... great. I looked up at a worried Camila and tried to put my best face on and placed a 'shush' finger on my lips and shook my head. 'Mila, you still there?'

'Yeah i'm still here Mani. No i'm sorry she hasn't texted me. I'll try and find out what's going on... what do you mean breathing down your necks, why do they think you would know?' 

'I suppose banging on our door would be more precise, they're here staying in the same hotel as us, and Hayley's throwing a fit because she had too carry Lo's stuff to her room. It was priceless.' 

'What!' i mouthed to Camila. 

'Anyway, we told them you saw her last at the hotel and now they're badgering us to get hold of you to get hold of her...' 

'Well, i should be back soon so don't do anything until i get there okay'

'Oh yeah your date, oh my god, is he still there? How's it going!' 

'I'll see you later Mani' she sang into the phone before hanging up and turning to face me as i began thinking aloud. 

'What are we gonna do, we're staying in the same hotel, they're going to be watching me 24/7. It's worse than being on the bus, and the bus is smaller so that doesn't make any sense. They can be cruel and relentless, they're going to make things worse and your group is never going to talk to me ever again...-'

'Lo-'

'It was going so well, i fixed everything and i did the best that i could, i tried to bandage what was broken even things that didn't need healing and look where i end up-' i ranted. 

'Lauren Michelle Jauregui, if you don't stop blabbering i'm going to kiss that perfect mouth of yours until you forget how to speak!' Camila, exclaimed playfully. 

'Could you do that anyway, i think i need it' i laughed, regaining some much needed oxygen. 

'We have all the time in the world. And, this whole feud business is not going to hurt us, the girls will still love you no matter what. They're not just my group, they're our friends. Now come on, let's go back to the hotel and resolve this minor issue. Don't let it ruin a perfect evening.' she reassured me. I want to believe nothing is going to change, but she doesn't know them like i do. We're really walking into Mordor now ;-) 

'You really think it was perfect?' i quipped.

'Better' she smiled, taking my hand in hers as we made our way off of the ice. We drove back to the hotel and i held Camila's hand for as long as possible, god knows when i'm going to get to hold it again. Please don't let this be the last time, please. 

'Wait, we can't just walk into the hotel together. Won't that look.. i dunno suspicious?' i suddenly asked in realization. 

'No, we'll just say that i texted you to find out where you were and my 'date' offered to pick you up and drop us off' she explained. 

'What crappy person doesn't walk their date to the door?' i asked. 

'Lauren, you are the person and you are walking me to the door...' she grinned, opening the door and stepping out. 

'And what person doesn't let their date open the door for them' i called out to her as she came around to my side. 

'The one's who's dates are too slow' she winked walking off toward the hotel. 

'Hey wait up Camz' i yelled, catching up to her stopping in the lobby. It was pretty late so there weren't a lot of people walking around. 'I don't want this night to end' i said looking down at our intertwined hands. 

'Well how about soon, you let me take you out and you can wish that night won't end as well' how is she still smiling, i thought Ally was the positive one. 

'Camila Cabello, are you asking me out on a date?' i retorted. 

'Is that a yes?' she asked unsuredly. 

'Of course it's a yes, you know granted you still like me by that time-'

'Would you stop, every things going to be fine' she replied, as the receptionist approached the desk and i felt Camila hand slip out from my own. Yeah it's gonna be great. 

'Ah yes Miss Jauregui, your room key' the man said, handing it too me. 'You and your group are all on the same floor as Miss Cabello's here, i hope you all get along nicely. Oh and Miss Jauregui, you have a room all to yourself' nothings changed their then, the girls always bunk with one another, and we're all on the same floor. What could go wrong -_-

'I don't suppose you know how long we're staying do you?' i asked sheepishly. 

'For as long as you have business here, is all your manager stated' so a while then... 

'Thank you, have a nice night' i offered as Camila and I walked to the elevator, and went up to our floor. I don't know what i was expecting but it certainly wasn't an angry red faced Catherine, lacking her clones it seems. 

'LAUREN WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU! WE'VE BEEN MAKING OURSELVES LOOK CRAZY TRYING TO GET HOLD OF YOU!' Catherine screamed, as i simply pushed passed her into the hallway, Camila came closer and whispered something into my ear. 

'Come to my room later when they're asleep' 

'LAUREN, DON'T YOU DARE IGNORE ME!' she persisted as i watched Camila slip into her room, a head of black hair sitting on one of the beds. Normani. I wonder what it's like to room with someone. 'LAUR-'

'Catherine, hey there. First, you don't need to make yourself look crazy, you are crazy. Second, and too put a long story short, I went out to get away from the repulsiveness that is you and the tiredness that is this situation i have found myself in. I'm back, and i hope you had a Friday as terrible as you. Goodnight-' i finished abruptly, slamming my bedroom door in her face. Another thing i'm going to pay for, but let's worry about that tomorrow when the real mess begins. 

A/N: The sass is real! Ps the song is just what i was listening to while writing this :-P
