Lauren's POV

I kept my eyes as far away from Camila,
but visual contact with her is crucial.
It wasn't very difficult to do, since Ana kept me very busy.

“How about we buy popcorn?” she asked, holding my hand

“Sure, let's go...” I said and smiled
“we are going in that room there”

“Perfect” he smiled, going with Camila to the room

“Alright then, with movie we'll see will you be okay?” I asked, while we lined up for the popcorn

“There is no problem to worry, you will be with me.” she said and gave me a suggestive smile, I winked
“salty or sweet?”

“Hmm?” I asked, not understanting

“The popcorn, Lauren..” she said and smiled

“Oh both I don't mind” I said, directly to who was attending us “I will pay ”
I decided, but she didn't give in

We entered the room, already dark and with trailer playing a little advanced.

I sat next to Ana, who sat next to Camila. The movie began Camila and Harry were whispering and laughing all the time.

I interlocked my fingers with Ana's, she looked at me, smiling. I brought my face to hers and without delay I kissed her lips gettimg her kissing me back.

Camila's POV

My eyes burned when I saw Lauren kiss the girl. That agony of not being in her place, of knowing that Lauren doesn't want to be with me.

I resisted the urge to hit my hand, unintentionally, in the glass next to me and spill all the drink on the girl next to me. Harry grabbed my hand, stroking it. I looked at him, knowing that he had noticed.

“Are you okay?” he asked, in a low voice “Do you want to get out of here?”

“I don't ...” I breathed deeply, to contain the tears “I don't want to leave.”

“Come here” he put his arm around my shoulders, I leaned on him, looking for protection

“Do you want popcorn?” Ana offered, addressing us

Calm Camilla, the girl is not to blame... Calm. Shit, this it doesn'tt work.

‘Push yourself those popcorn you little....’
I wanted to say but instead I said

“No thanks.” in a harsh voice

Harry pinched my arm, lightly.

“What is it?” I looked at him without understanding

“Control that little imp inside you” he said whispering and laughing

“I didn't do anything” I defended myself, placing the straw of the soda in my mouth, before I said some other shit

Harry smiled and shook his head.
I embraced him, totally focused on the film. With the comments he made from time to time he managed to undo the knot in my throat and sometimes even laugh a little.

When the lights came on and the screen went white again, I ran my hand over my face, to remove any trace of weakness.

We left soon, behind Lauren and Ana who were talking ahead.

“Camila, why didn't you tell me that you are bothered by her presence?” he looked at me, as he said

“Because I didn't think you were going to invite her” I answered, between greeted teeth “and she doesn't bother me, not anymore...”I lied

“Oh and the tears that I saw in your eyes what where they? An optical illusion?” he said, shaking his head

I pushed him on the shoulder, laughing.
The four of us stopped, outside the cinema room.
