Title: What is Left Over
Pairing: Lauren Jauregui/Camila Cabello
Rating: M
Summary: Camila remembers being young, starry-eyed and nervous, hope spreading heat through her veins as she whispered jokes into Lauren’s ear during boot camp. She wasn’t very funny, but Lauren always laughed before whispering back. They made fun of other contestants a lot, a streak that was almost mean. She remembers how terrifying it was to open up to Lauren then, because Camila never had a lot of friends, and she wanted Lauren to be her friend so badly she spent her nights dreaming up cool things to say to her. But it was the moments when she was most honest, filter failing her, that she felt the best, the most connected, like she and Lauren were special.
Camila leaves, Lauren goes to college, and Camila comes back. Sort of.
When you feel overwhelmed by your problems, read about space, or about how long the earth has been around and how long humans have been around. It’ll make you feel so insignificant and make everything feel less serious too.
Happy 22nd Birthday Camila Cabello! (b. March 3rd, 1997)
