chapter 2

"If you want, you can sit besides me," Camila offered. "You'll end up hurting your neck from all the head turning. I can see the tv perfectly fine from here."

Lauren looked conflicted. Sitting next to her in the tiny table meant they would be touching side by side. "Are you sure?"

Camila nodded, looking in her green sparkling eyes. "Don't be silly, of course. Come sit." She said patting the empty seat besides her.

Slowly, Lauren rose and brought her almost finished bowl of cereal besides Camila. Although it was highly uncomfortable, she sat half her body on the seat and the other half dangling on the air, she hoped the younger girl wouldn't notice, but at-least now there was a small space between their bodies.

She continued eating, watching the movie, but she couldn't focus. If she was asked, she wouldn't even had known the title of the movie. All she was doing was looking at the bright screen, but paying attention to the breathing's of the girl next to her.

"Lauren?" Camila whispered besides her. Lauren turned and looked at her with discomfort in her face. "Why are you sitting so far away? Move more and you'll fall off your seat. I can see your leg shaking in pain."

Lauren looked down at her bare leg and saw that Camila was right, her leg was starting to shake and numb from all the weight it was carrying. She laughed breathily, pretending she hadn't noticed, but scooted closer to Camila. She ignored the fact that their legs and shoulders were touching. She gave Camila a soft smile and returned her attention back to the movie. She was finally able to focus on the movie, until she felt Camila's hand grab her own under the table.

"Camila, what are you doing?" She asked looking down, finding herself intertwining her fingers with Camila's. She was surprised by how perfectly their hands fit with each others. She didn't push her hand away, or let go.

"What?" Camila said innocently rubbing her thumb on Lauren's fingers, "We always hold hands. It's nothing new."

"I don't think you remember, but we haven't held hands since x-factor days."

Camila felt a slight jab of pain at the memory. How close they used to be, but that was all ruined because everyone assumed they were a couple from how affectionate they were with one another. Neither of them cared at first, but it started getting worse. Worse until their management told them to avoid contact in public or interviews. They got so used of ignoring each other in front of lens, that it actually affected them behind cameras. They each found solace with the other girls and began spending less time with each other. They were still close, sure, but compared to the sisters they used to be, now they felt like distant cousins.

"Yes, I remember," Camila replied. "But who says we can't be as affectionate as we were before? Hell look at them-" she nodded her head towards Ally who was watching the movie with Dinah sleeping on her chest. They held hands comfortably with no care in the world. "Why can't we be like them again?"

Lauren looked at her band mates with a smile. It did look innocent enough.

"Okay fuck it, why not right?" She gave in, scooting closer to Camila and leaning into her chest. It felt a little weird, but it was probably because they hadn't held hands in such a long time.

Time went by peacefully, until eventually Ally fell asleep on the couch, who was joined by a freshly showered and sleeping Normani. Lauren felt herself beginning to get sleepy. She turned her head, ready to excuse herself from Camila and go take a nap, but she noticed a mischievous glint in Camila's eye.

"What?" Lauren asked with a giggle. The younger girl shook her head and smiled.

"This is nice. I missed us."

"I missed us too," she replied with a yawn. "Let's pick this back up some other time, i'm going to head to my bunk and take a quick nap." She let go of Camila's hand and was about to stand when she felt Camila pull her back.

"Wait," Camila whispered. Her eyes flickered down to Lauren's lips which Lauren licked without realizing. Camila bit her lip as she stared at the plump bottom lips in front of her.

Lauren felt herself freeze in her, seat the same way she had stood frozen in the morning. Her mind kept telling her to run, but her body was begging her to say. Camila, with a sudden feel of bravery, moved her face closer to Lauren's.

"Just sit still, don't move," she whispered hoarsely. Lauren gulped, feeling the hairs on the back of her hair rise but she nodded her head.

This wasn't going to be good.

Camila cleared her throat and moved closer, sliding her hand on Lauren's thigh. Luckily she was wearing little shorts that gave her a lot of area to work with. She started by cupping her hand on her knee and slowly making a trail that was going up towards Laurens inner thigh, leading Lauren to gasp quietly.

Lauren bit her lip harder each time Camila went higher on her leg, she was sure her lip was starting to bleed, but she didn't care. Neither of them broke eye contact as Lauren sighed quietly, Camila was starting to use her fingertips as she explored the area of skin on Lauren's leg, feeling the want to now explore somewhere else. She wasn't sure what she was doing it, but hearing Lauren moan softly was a sign of victory to her that made her feel something foreign in her own pants. She licked her lips as she stared at Lauren bite her lip. Was her touching her leg causing this much pleasure?

Although Lauren had been completely still the complete time, she started stirring in her seat, lifting her pelvic up in order for Camila's hand to reach a little higher. By now, her mind had gone completely blank. She didn't care about boundaries anymore, all she cared was that this felt too fucking good to ignore.

She looked at Camila who was watching her every move and every sigh with dark eyes. The world seemed to stand still and the only people were the two of them. They didn't feel like friends anymore, this feeling was entirely different, and Lauren wasn't sure what it was, but she wanted to find out. They both licked their lips in hunger, for something that wasn't food, and began leaning in. Their lips were about to touch, when they heard a sleepy voice behind them ask,

"What are you guys doing?"
