Lauren's POV

- I never took what they said about 'love sucks' seriously. I had never fallen in love before either, to tell the truth. Now I was corroborating that phrase that had so much fame, and I was verifying it.

- After that night, I didn't even stay at the hotel. I took a flight back to Los Angeles. I hated my own house, I hated everything. Everything around me just reminded me of Camila, because everything I lived, saw and breathed, was her.

- I could not go more than ten seconds without thinking about Camila, and notice how a sting in my chest appeared again. It was already familiar to me those days.

- At night, I tried to sleep but I couldn't. The nightmares were the sustenance of each night, and I didn't have Camila to hug me, because she was with someone else. The smell of her perfume on my pillow hurt me, and it made me want to cry with every word spoken in my thoughts remembering what Camila had once said. She said she would never leave me, she said she loved me. She said she was in love with me.

- My eyes, swollen from crying, looked at the ceiling for some comfort, but there was nothing . God did not exist, there was no burning nail to hold on to. My life was back to being empty like nine months ago. Had I been living so badly in those years? I didn't know there was this void in me, and Camila had filled it completely. Her flaws, her small, insignificant flaws were complements of mine.

- I got out of bed and went down the stairs of the house, passing through the kitchen that I did not even want to look at for so many memories that it brought. I simply gave my life to Camila, and she threw it overboard.

- I took my Old guitar, black, with some stickers from Lana del Rey, The 1975 and Arctic Monkeys. I haven't played that guitar in years, or haven't taken that guitar out. Maybe since I was a teenager, or since I didn't feel anything. I sat in one of the hammocks by the pool, watching the water and listening to that relaxing sound it made as it entered and left the drains, and how the breeze moved the water as if it were blowing consciously on it.

- My fingers slid down the guitar strings, squeezing them up to mark
