Epilogue

~ 3 years later ~

Camila's POV:

"Everybody, welcome multiple grammy winner artist Camila Cabello and her fiancée Lauren Jauregui!" Ellen announces, before me and my beautiful girl walk out on stage.

-

So much has happened in the past three years. My relationship with Lauren is so much better, and the day she asked me to marry her was the most perfect day of my life

~ flashback ~

It's August 18th, a really hot day, like literally I keep sweating, it's not normal. Lauren's been away with her friends since this morning so this gives me some time to make a few cover video's. Of course I make my own songs and albums and all that, but my fans still love my covers, and I love doing them, so I upload a few every month.

I've already done 2 covers when the front door of our condo opens and my beautiful girl walks through it.

"Hey baby!" She says excitedly before coming over to kiss me.

"I'm taking you out for dinner tonight." She says, before walking away to get a drink.

Two hours later, we're in a restaurant by the beach. I wore a tight red dress and Lauren picked a black one. She normally doesn't wear that many dresses but I guess she wanted to dress up too.

We both gave our orders a few minutes ago and are looking out of the window onto the beach, and making some small talk.

Lauren seems a little bit nervous, but I think it's because school's starting soon and she always gets kinda nervous for that. She kept working at the school, and this year will be her third year.

After dinner, we took a walk across the beach and got some ice cream. I'm so happy, my favorite food with my favorite girl in my favorite place.

When we finished our ice creams, we kept walking, watching the sun go down, until we reach some sort of blanket with a lot of roses and candles all over. Whoever this is for must be really lucky!

That's what I thought until Lauren pulled me onto it.

"Laur! You're ruining the couple's place!" I giggle, and she laughs.

"Mm, I think one part of the couple wouldn't really mind. Come on!" She says, pulling on my hand to pull me to stand on the blanket.

She kisses my hand before letting it go and then suddenly drops onto one knee. Is this really happening?

"Cam babe, we've been together for almost three years now, and I've loved every single second of it. My most happy moments were spent with you and I can't imagine having more happy moments without you. My love for you is indescribable, like for real, I've never loved anyone as much as I love you and every single day I notice myself falling in love with you even more. I would absolutely love to spend the rest of my life loving you, every day more than the day before, and that's why I'm asking you this..."

She reaches into her dress pocket before taking out a dark blue velvet box, taking my hand and opening the box, showing a gorgeous diamond ring.

"Karla Camila Cabello, will you marry me?"She smiles up at me, before I drop to my knees to kiss her.

"Fuck, yes! Of course! Yes!" I cry out, tears spilling over my face, as I kiss her again.

She takes the ring out of the box and places it on my finger, before hugging me and kissing me.

God, it's perfect.

~ Flashback over ~

My singing career got a huge boost. I got even more subscribers, the numbers growing literally every minute. I even won 3 Grammy awards. I released two albums and like 15 songs, most of them being love songs, obviously.

Lauren and I lived in the condo for two more years after I graduated, but after that we bought a penthouse apartment. Still in Miami of course, we could never leave this place.

My relationship with my parents got a little better after we had dinner together. We decided to try to get along for Sofi's sake, she needs a family that doesn't hate each other or are fighting all the time.

We do dinner every month, and they've finally accepted me being gay, but it just took some time.

They met Lauren a few times, when I brought her along to dinner, and they absolutely loved her. But then again, how could they not, everybody loved that woman.

I still visit my old highschool, to have lunch with Lauren or just to bring her something. The first time old teachers saw me, they were shocked of course.

~ Flashback ~

It's a thursday afternoon, just lunch time and I don't really have anything to do, as my meeting got cancelled, so I decided to bring Laur some lunch. And a kiss of course, but that's more for me than for her.

I park my car in front of the highschool, grabbing the bag of some stupid salad with iced tea for Laur and some fries with a burger and a coke for me.

I lock the car and walk up the steps into the building, navigating my way to Lauren's classroom, it's still the same.

I smile at my old geography teacher when I walk past her, giggling to myself when I see her shocked expression.

I knock on Lauren's door, before opening it."Well, if it isn't my favorite teacher." I smile, walking to Lauren's desk and looking over the full classroom. I dump the bag of lunch onto Lauren's desk and sit on a stool that stands by it.

She smiles at me and grabs my hand underneath the table to acknowledge me.

"Holy shit, is that her?" I hear from someone in the classroom.

"Are you- are you the Camila Cabello?" A girl in the middle row asks, and I smile, nodding my head.

"Holy fuck it's her! What are you doing here?" Some guy asks."Well I'm bringing my girlfriend her lunch" I smile, and they cheer.

We immediatly both are shot eighty questions, the children's work long forgotten.

"I didn't know you were gay, miss!" "How long have you been dating?""How did you meet?""What's it like dating a famous singer?""Do you get to walk red carpets with her?"

"Wow guys, calm down!" Lauren laughs. "First y'all need to pack your shit up, 'cause the bell's gonna ring soon. Now when you're done y'all can ask one question at the time. I don't think y'all will work anymore thanks to someone here" She says, looking at me at the last part.

The kids quickly pack up and ask a few questions that we answer, but not the questions of how we met, not really ready for that to get out.

After the bell finally rings, and all the kids are out of the room, we get to kiss.

We sit down and start eating, talking about our days while we're at it.

That, until my old spanish teacher drops into the classroom as we're just finishing up, I have to go to the studio. Looking shocked to see me sitting there with her favorite colleague.I had dropped Spanish class in my freshman year seeing I was already fluent and it didn't help me whatsoever.

Mrs Gonzáles looks at me weirdly before walking into the classroom some more.

"Aren't you Camila Cabello? All the kids in the canteen are talking about you! I didn't know they were right, though!" She says, and I smile.

"Thought I'd visit for some! But I actually have to leave now, sorry! It was nice seeing you though!" I say before turning to Lauren to sign with my eyes to follow me.

She hugs me, whispering an 'okay' before I pull away, walking out of the room.

Not even 6 seconds later, my girl runs out of the room and pulls me against the wall. "Had to tell her you forgot something" she smiles against my lips, before kissing me. Now I can properly leave.

~ Flashback over ~

Lauren helped me grow so much in the past four years, it's unbelievable. She helped me so much with everything and has always supported me so much, in everything I decided to do.

When I suddenly had to step onto a plane and go to another city, she'd call in sick and hop on it with me. When I made the stupid decision to go out and get wasted, she'd pick me up and take care of me and my hangover. When I broke my wrist, she was the one that rushed over to the hospital from work to see if I was okay and to help me get around.

She made the promise she made at her proposal true, and loved me more and more every day. I could see that in the small things she did.

She always brings me flowers when she sees some pretty ones when she goes shopping. She'll watch sappy romance movies with me when I'm sad. Run to the store to get me more chocolate ice cream when I'm on my period. Fix up a bath for me when I'm exhausted, and the list goes on and on.

The feeling is so mutual though, I couldn't imagine my life without her, I don't think I'd survive, her love literally keeps me alive.If you'd tell me five years ago that I would be at a home with someone every night, where we'd dance after dinner and have stupid rap battles in the car together on our way to date nights on wednesdays, I'd never believe them.

But now I do, and the feeling is the best feeling ever.

It's almost been four whole years of being together and it never really changed, the love got more but we still acted like when we first fell in love, and let's hope it stays that way forever.

-

"So Camila, Lauren, a little birdy told me you guys had something important to share with us. You're not engaged again, right?" Ellen asks, and the audience laughs.

Lauren smiles, and puts her hand on my thigh."No, but it is something that's really gonna change our lives forever. We're both really excited, but this news does mean the wedding's gonna be a little later than we actually thought." She says, while I place my hand on top of hers, lacing our fingers together.

"Here goes nothing, right?" I ask her, winking as she winks back at me.

"So like, we're expecting!" She says."Laur's 3,5 months pregnant now, and we're both really excited for this baby to come!"

The audience cheers, but I'm only focused on Lauren, squeezing my hand."We're really doing this, huh babe?" She whispers.

"Well, congratulations guys! Wow! Now, if I may ask, why did you decide for Lauren to carry?" Ellen asks, after hugging us.

"Well, we both thought it'd be better for her to carry since I travel a lot and the performing wouldn't really do the baby any good." I say.

"That, and I would absolutely love to experience the whole pregnancy and birth process. We both feel like that if we have another baby in the future that maybe Cam can carry, but that's really something for the future." Lauren says, squeezing my hand again.

———-(6,5 months later)

She's here. Our gorgeous baby girl is finally here, and she's the most precious thing I've ever seen, and I've seen Lauren waking up so that should say something.

After 16 long hours of labour, she's finally here.Lauren did such a good job and I couldn't be more proud of her.

Seeing her laying here with our baby on her chest, I couldn't be more in love with her.

Ava Sofia Grace Jauregui-Cabello, born at 6:34 am.

I hate that I couldn't do more for Lauren, but hold her hand and whisper loving words to her, but she said it couldn't be more perfect.

I know she's exhausted, but wants to spend every single second with our baby girl, who's at the moment asleep in her arms.

"We have a baby, Cam" Lauren says, looking over to me, pulling me into a kiss."We do, baby" I smile.

20 minutes later, Lauren fell asleep, exhaustion finally got to her.

Now I'm sitting here, our beautiful daughter in my arms.

"Hey baby, I'm your other mommy. I know, kinda confusing, you'll get it later tho.I'm gonna love you so so much and you're gonna be so spoiled, I'm gonna get you every single thing you desire.

Your momma is the strongest woman I know, babygirl. She's gonna love you so much too. And your grandma Clara and grandpa Michael are gonna spoil you rotten too! Auntie Ally, auntie Dinah and auntie Normani probably will too, and everybody's gonna love you so much.

You know, your mom and I were both a little scared. We both have never cared for a baby as little as you, but I think we're gonna be fine. You're gonna be fine, babygirl. I love you so much" I cry out.

"Fuck, that was beautiful" I hear from the raven haired woman in the bed next to me.

"Don't curse in front of our baby!" I say, and she smiles."I don't really think she's gonna repeat it, honey." She giggles.

———-(2 years later)

This is it, our wedding day. I'm sitting here in my wedding dress, waiting to be walked down the aisle by my dad.

Ava's in Lauren's dressing room, she's gonna be our little flower girl, with a little basket full of forget me nots.

Last night, Lauren and I were supposed to sleep apart, to keep the whole tradition going and all, but for the whole 6 years that we've been together, we've never slept one night apart, so we both weren't able to sleep, so I slipped into her room and literally dropped myself in bed.

When Ally, Dinah and Normani found us though, we were fucked. They were mad, but they couldn't stay mad for long though, as it's our wedding day.

My dad's gonna walk me down the aisle. I would've never though that 6 years ago, but it's happening.

I hear three knocks on the door. It's time.The music starts playing, and the doors open.I link my arm with my dad's, and we walk down the aisle.

When I finally look up and see the love of my life standing there looking more beautiful than ever, the tears start streaming.

I have to physically pull myself back from kissing her when I finally stand in front of her and see her tear stained face as she stares at me.

"Hey beautiful!" She smiles, taking my hands in hers as we look at the officiant.

"We've all come together for the marriage of these two beautiful ladies. From what I've understood, you've written your own vows. So Lauren, would you like to start with yours?" He says.

After getting the note from Ally, Lauren takes a deep breath "Well, here we go."

"When I first met you, I didn't think you'd become the most important person in my life. The one that means more to me than every other person together. I never would've thought once that the love we share would be so strong as it is now, that the family we build would be like this. But it happened. And I could not be more happy with the way things went, with the way we found each other and stood together through everything that happened. With this marriage I promise to you that I will forever take care of you and our family, and to love you unconditionally."She smiles at me and wipes my tears away.

"Thank you Lauren, now Camila, wanna give it a try?" the officiant jokes.

I grab my vows from Dinah and clear my throat.

"Lauren, love of my life, what would you like me to call you, huh." I look at the people in the room.

"You guys can't understand the love I feel for this woman right here. The way she makes my heart flutter with everything she says and makes me swoon by even looking at me. All of y'all that knew me before I met Lauren would agree with me that before she was in my life, nobody would think I'd get married. But she changed me. For the better, that is. I'm becoming a housewife, guys. Laur, with marrying you I promise to love you till death do us apart, and hell, even after that, who could ever stop loving you. Now guys, just hurry up so I can kiss my wife."

The people in the room laugh as I wipe my tears away.

We repeat the officiant's words, and after we put the rings on each other's hands, we finally get to kiss as a married couple. And let me tell you, nothing feels better than that.

I hold my wifes hand up as we look at the people clapping.

After we get back from our holiday on the Maladives, we're gonna try out for a second baby. My turn to carry, though.

10 Minutes later, we walk through the doors to the party room as the DJ announces us.

"Please welcome the beautiful couple for their first dance as a married couple. Please welcome the Jauregui-Cabello's!"

THE END
