2 Months Later
Your POV
"I'm so proud of you," my girlfriend said as she laid her head on my shoulder, watching as everyone continued to dance and drink.
We were at my album release party and it was all still so surreal to me.
"Thank you," I told her, leaning down to kiss her lips.
I smiled into the kiss as I tasted the tequila on her tongue.
"How much did you have to drink?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Enough," she giggled, bringing her glass back up to her lips to take another sip.
I just shook my head, watching as four familiar figures walked through the door. I thought they weren't going to make it?
I guess Camila followed my gaze because I felt her tense up.
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
"They've been ignoring me lately."
"Maybe they've just been busy," I tried as I watched someone serve them drinks.
"For the past four months? The only one who's been returning my texts has been Dinah," she said.
I could hear how sad her voice sounded.
"I'm gonna go greet them. I'll send Dinah over. I'm sure she would love to see you," I said, kissing her forehead and then pecking her lips.
I stood up and made my way through the crowd, mumbling "thank yous" to everyone who congratulated me along the way.
I could see the faces of Dinah, Normani, and Ally light up as they saw me coming up behind Lauren. I quickly put my finger to my lips, signaling for them to stay quiet.
"I figured you'd want something stronger than champagne," I said in Lauren's ear, making her whip her head around and grab her chest.
"Y/n!" She exclaimed when she saw it was me.
"Hey," I said as she pulled me in for a hug.
"Let us get a hug too, Lo," Normani said, pulling me in for a hug next.
"It feels like we haven't seen you in forever," Dinah said as she hugged me.
"I know," I answered, pulling Ally into a hug.
"Where's Camila?" Dinah asked, looking around a little.
"Oh, we broke up," I answered nonchalantly, taking Lauren's champagne and sipping it.
They all looked at me with blank expressions, almost as if they were debating whether or not I was telling the truth.
"I'm kidding," I said, feeling small under all of their gazes.
"You can't do that!" Normani said, slapping my arm as I laughed.
"How are you two?" Lauren asked.
"We're doing great. We've both been busy with our separate albums, but we make time for each other," I told them, getting nods from the all except Ally, who probably already knew this from Y/b/f.
"She's up in the VIP area," I told them, making eye contact with Dinah, who nodded before slipping off to go see her.
"How have you guys been doing?" I asked the other three girls.
"We've been doing good. Our third album is coming together," Normani said, sitting down next to me.
"Yea, and we've been a lot more involved in the process. We've co-written more than half of the songs," Lauren told me.
"Wow, that's great. I'm happy for you guys," I told them.
I was happy they weren't just show puppets anymore.
I stayed and talked to the girls for a while until they had to leave.
"Can you tell Dinah to meet us outside?" Lauren asked as they hugged me goodbye.
"You guys don't wanna come with me to get her?"
They all gave me uneasy looks that I immediately caught onto.
"She misses you guys you know?" I told them.
"We just need a little time, bub," Normani told me.
I just nodded and went up to find Dinah.
When I entered the VIP area I immediately spotted my girlfriend next to Dinah. When Camila saw me her face lit up and she waved me over, pecking my lips before sitting me down and taking a seat on my lap.
"The girls told me to tell you to meet them outside. Something about having to get up early for an interview tomorrow," I told Dinah, noticing how her face fell a little.
"I forgot about that," she spoke as she stood up.
Camila quickly followed, wrapping the girl in a big hug.
"I'll text you later, Chancho," Dinah told her as they pulled away.
I smiled at the old nickname as I pulled the girl into a hug. I mouthed a thank you to her, both of us knowing the deeper meaning.
When Dinah disappeared into the crowd I felt Camila lean into my side. I wrapped my arms around her, noticing how tired she was.
"Tired?" I asked, already knowing the answer.
I felt her nod against my chest as she let of a sigh.
"Let's go home," I told her.
"You can't leave your own album release party," she said, pulling her head away to look at me.
"Who says?" I asked, grabbing her hand and quickly texting Y/b/f to ask if I could take the car.
He sent a response saying he left with Ally so it was fine as long as I was sober.
I led Camila to the car and helped her in. The ride home was quick, but Camila still ended up falling asleep.
When I parked the car I went around, pulling her into my arms and shutting the door with my foot. I felt her stir in my arms and stuff her face in my neck as I entered the elevator.
"Cam, I know you're awake. Press the button for our floor," I told her with a giggle.
I shook my head as she blindly reached out and ran her fingers over the buttons, managing to press our floor and two others.
When we finally reached our apartment I somehow managed to unlock the door, shutting it with my foot as I walked in.
I glanced at the clock as I walked into my room. One am.
I tried to lay Camila down on the bed without waking her. I thought I had succeeded until she whimpered a little, feeling around on the bed. I furrowed my eyebrows, moving my hand under hers and suppressing a smile when she grabbed it and pulled it close to her.
She really just searched for my hand in her sleep.
I quickly pulled off my jeans with one arm, slipping under the blankets when I succeeded.
When I got comfortable Camila rolled next to me and snuggled into my side, and as I laid there next to her I couldn't help but think that this is how I want it to be for the rest of my life.
