--Hey guys this is so late but I finally got it finished. Enjoy.

Camila's POV

I woke up to an empty bed which never happens Lauren never gets up before me so this was really weird for me. I'm use to waking up to her it was the one thing I looked forward to every morning and she wasn't here. So I got up to go look for her, I checked the kids room first and seen that they were both sleeping so she obviously wasn't with them. My next stop was the kitchen where I found her standing at the counter mixing something in a bowl. Her back was too me I walked up to her quietly and I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her to me.

"I should have known I wouldn't be able to surprise you." Lauren said leaning into me.

"You wanted to surprise me?" I asked her.

"Yeah, I was going to make you banana nut muffins and bring them to you in bed." She said.

I smiled. "Yum, that sounds really amazing but what's the occasion?"

"Well," She turns to face me. "Today marks two months for us."

"You're right it's been two months, time flies doesn't it." I said giving her a peck.

"It certainly does, I think it's been going great what about you?" She asked.

I nod. "It's been going amazing babe, I love being with you."

"When do you think we can start telling people?" She inquired.

"You're ready to tell people aren't you?" I said.

"Yeah, I mean two months is plenty of time to decide whether this is something we really want to do. I know that these past two months have been phenomenal I haven't felt this type of happiness in forever. I don't want to hide you anymore I don't want to hide this." She voiced.

"There are still a lot of things we still have to work out Lauren; I don't want to risk everything by putting our relationship out there. I do know that I want this with you Lauren and I can't wait to share this news with everyone we care about but, I don't want to rush it." I said honestly.

"Are you still having insecurities about me using you as a place holder because I have stressed to you that I'm not?" She asked.

"No, I don't feel that way anymore and I wouldn't lie about that. It's just we haven't addressed deeper topics yet, like where we see this heading. We haven't talked about the future to see if ours line up and that we want the same things. I don't want us to date for a while and realize that we don't want the same things at all. That will risk our friendship and a manner of other things. I care about you deeply and I know that you're the one I want but I'm not sure I'm ready to make us public knowledge just yet."

It wasn't what she wanted to hear and she moves out of my grasp going back to the muffins.

"We have been friends since we were seven don't you think I would know what you wanted for the future, it's not like we haven't talk about our plans a million times before we even were involved." She stated.
