Anything Is Possible (A Sequel to "The End of Fifth Harmony Camren Fan Fiction")

Chapter 20: Who Are You?

Camila POV

   I wrapped my foot into the comfy covers, twisting around them to feel its smooth surface caress my skin. I dug my foot into them, a soft texture hugging my feet. Still twisting and turning, my  eyes manage to slowly flick open. Yawning, and extending my arms, I sat up on my bed and gazed at the surroundings. 

   My room. My actual room. 

   Sofi was asleep in her bed, her arms wrapped around her stuffed unicorn, murmuring in her sleep. I stared at my little sister for a while, a grin spread on my face. As much as I hated Strike for all the problems he had caused Lauren and I, he was the reason why I was home, looking at my little sister, wrapped in the covers that I loved to call mine. 

   I hadn't spoken to Lauren properly since yesterday since she had departed from the airport after saluting Dinah, Normani and Ally. My parents had not asked why I had left - yet - but I'm sure they would today. Throughout our car ride home, they gave me a few glances and grins through the mirror, a hint of admiration in their glances. I thought I had caught my dad's eyes filled with tears, but I could've been mistakened. 

   It's been such an adventure. Starting from a tiresome journey on an aeroplane with Lauren, anticipation eating her soul away until she was nothing, but yet I managed to save her. And she saved me too, from running away, and from myself. Without her, where would I be?

    Oh gosh I need to call her!

Lauren POV

   The girls were staying at a hotel to give us time with our parents. Still acknowledging Jake's suggestion, I tried very hard to think about another excuse. What could I tell my parents apart from the truth? The truth was too much for them to handle... the reason why I will never tell them - the secret I was prepared to keep buried so that no one will ever re dig it up to use it against me. 

   What was Camz thinking? After everything I had put her through, it's probably for the best that we keep apart for the time being. I'm sure right now, she's enjoying her time she had missed all week with her family. That's exactly what she deserved, not an attempt murderer like me. 

   Taylor looked down at me, who was lying down on the ground, my cushion in my arms. 

"Typical Lauren." she said, grinning at me. I smiled but not at her, at the ceiling. 'So, how was... Cuba? I'm guessing you were there, the detective said so.' 

"It was good. I was with Camz so I guess it was good." I answered. 

"That's great then, isn't it." she said quietly. I nodded at her comment. She stayed quiet, twisting her body so her back was facing me.

   Who to talk to? Camz? Nah! Lauren, give her time to think things through, I thought, Camz still on my mind. Would she stay with me? She said she would... but people change Lauren, just like you changed these past few weeks and let jealousy get the best of you. Of course Camila doesn't want to talk to you. She followed you because she was sympathetic, same goes for all those petty 'I love you's'... it was all an act to keep you sane. All she was doing was thinking about her career; without Lauren, Fifth Harmony are nothing. And now she's out of the mess you created, and her career probably going to go back on track, you can fuck off and leave her alone. 

  Removing Camz... CAMILA as an option, more names sprung into mind. Jake... maybe not now. He's done a lot to help you out and by putting more worries on his mind, you're probably going to break him until he's absolutely nothing. Leave him be, Lauren, leave him be. 

   Crossing Jake out of my invisible list in my head, my mind met a stupid thought. Why don't you tell the girls... wait a sec, TELL THEM?! They'll probably think I'm a crazy psychopath and probably wouldn't want to associate with you anymore.
