Chapter 41

                                    

                                          
Camila's pov. 
                          
As I promised Lauren I took her out on a date the next day. I felt really bad for spending that much time in the studio lately and not taking her feelings into consideration. I made sure I was treating her like a princess and that we made up for the lost time. The way she was smiling all night made me realise how much I actually missed her. I promised myself to really slow down a bit and bring our relationship back on track. 
                          
It's a week later now and I hope I'm still doing a good job trying to balance my time with Lauren and working on a new song. I'm not gonna lie, I'm extra tired lately. Between everything I also started working out in the gym and believe me, sometimes I feel like my legs are like jelly. 
                          
Right now we were sitting outside in the garden since it was pretty hot. I was reading a book between Lauren's legs and she was scrolling through her phone. 
                          
"Do you want me to get you something to drink,babe?" I asked looking at her over my shoulder. 
                          
"Yeah, water would be great. Thanks Camz. " She said and quickly kissed my cheek. 
                          
I stood up, maybe a bit too quickly cause suddenly my head was spinning and I was losing my balance. I heard Lauren calling my name and next thing I knew her hands were on my waist and she was holding me up. 
                          
"Hey, hey. Are you okay baby?" She asked frantically.
                          
With my eyes still closed I just nodded my head and took a deep breath. 
                          
"Shit. Okay I got you. Come on just lie down for a bit." She moved my body and I was trying to hold on to her but my arms felt so tired. Once she laid me down she touched my forehead and then moved to my cheeks. "Whats's wrong, are you okay?" 
                          
"Y-yeah, it's nothing." I said with hoarse voice. I tried to open my eyes and immediately regretted it cause everything was way to bright right now and the sun wasn't helping either. 
                          
"Fuck just don't move okay I'll go and bring you some water." Lauren said in rush and I instantly missed her hands caressing my face. 
                          
I don't know how much time passed but it felt like she was literally back in a second. 
                          
"Can you sit up for me?" She asked gently and grabbed my arm to help me. I nodded slowly and  tried to open my eyes again. I was still feeling a bit dizzy but my vision was becoming more clear with every second. She brought a glass of water to my lips and I took few small sips. I cleared my throat and looked at Lauren's face that was full of concern. 
                          
"It's okay. Try and drink some more,babe." She said encouragingly and I did what she asked. I didn't realise I drank a whole glass until I heard Lauren's voice again. "Are you feeling a bit better now?" 
                          
"Yeah." I said quietly not trusting my voice just yet. 
                          
"Let's lie down for a bit." She placed the empty glass on the grass and moved to sit beside me, my head instantly falling on her shoulder. She was playing with my hands and kissing my head from time to time. I closed my eyes and finally started to relax. 
                          
Apparently I fell asleep and when I opened my eyes again I was in our bedroom. The curtains were still closed but the sun was slightly peeking between them. I looked at the clock and it said 9 A.M. There's no way I slept that long. Confused I looked around but Lauren wasn't in bed with me anymore. I closed my eyes again and after few minutes I heard the bedroom door opening. I opened my eyes again trying to adjust to the light and saw Lauren with a plate full of food and a glass of water in her hands.
                          
"Hey there, sleepyhead. How are you feeling?" She said putting down the plate on the beside table and sitting down next to me. She passed me the water she was carrying and her other hand landed on my hip.
