Lauren's POV

Jenna Laney and I had just about reached our dorm when laney stopped dead.
"Lauren is it just me or are they who I think they are?" Laney asked.
"Yep they're the Newmans... but who is that with them...?" I asked.
"Woah it's your ex!" Jenna said stunned.
"Make a run for it!" I whispered running for our dorm.
"This is a terrible idea we are going to have to talk to them now anyway," Laney scolded me.
"Sorry just open the door!" Lauren frantically yelled.
"Woah woah woah Im getting it!" Laney said as they walked up to us.
"Well well well if it isn't garbage-band," Carrie said walking up to us. I sent Jenna and Laney my 'shut your mouth signal' and continued to watch Laney open the door.
"Come on Laney how hard is it to unlock a door?" I asked ignoring the Newmans and ugh... him.
"Harder than it looks," Laney said.
"Hey losers over here we were trying to talk to you," Carrie said. I watched Laney jiggle the key in the lock but it wouldn't turn.
"Ugh I'll do it," i said pulling out my key.
"Is there a reason you guys are refusing to talk to us?" Carrie asked.
"Yeah," I said opening the door and turning to them, "we don't want to talk to you."
"Lauren?" Sean asked me.
"Yep it's me Lauren Delany, don't call the paparazzi, just leave, unless you want an autograph I can get you that," I said tilting my head as if to say 'how do you like them apples?' And crossing my arms.
"Lauren were gonna got to the guys room you can come too if you want," Laney offered.
"Na I want to use the dorm since it took me so long to open the door," i said "I'll call you later 'Kay?"
"It's so great to see you again," he continued.
"As to you, ta ta!" I said slamming the door.
"Dude we're going back to our dorms you can join us if you want or you can stay here and try to convince prissy to talk to you," Carrie said.
"Just because I'm behind a door doesn't mean I can't hear you!" I yelled. "Im not that prissy, geez..." i trailed off.
"Just pretend he's not there he's gotta leave eventualy right?" He wasn't saying anything but I knew he was there. "ooh I can call everyone in my contacts! See what they're up to! This is gonna take like 8 years..." I said louder than necessary. "oh look there's like 4000 people fun fun," i created up to the door and looked through the peak hole... drat he was still there. "you know I have no intention of giving you what you came here for," i said making myself a latte from Jenna's coffee machine.
"Can I just talk to you?" He asked.
"Knock yourself out don't mean I'm gonna waste my time listening." I sassed. "I got another 4000 plus people who would love to here from me so I don't see why you can walk in and cut the line,"
"Seriously what's up with you what did I do to you?" He asked me.
"You wana hear my list? I made a note on my phone," i said opening the door.
"Can you make it quick? I'm not in the mood, even though I just had some of the most fun I've had the whole time I was here," i said.
"I just wanted to talk to you again, you left me that one night at the party and never came back," he said.
"Ha I don't know where you come from but when you see your boyfriend kiss another girl it's called cheating, and I don't return calls to people who cheat on me," i said. Was he nuts.
"Well I've had time to think and I thought about everything and I was wondering if you wanted to get back together," he said.
"Nutcase! What the hell was I ever thinking? No! I don't!" I said pushing him to the door. "what the heck were you thinking? Clearly we aren't on the same page here!" I said pushing him out the door and slamming it. "i have a good feeling you have nothing else to say because I know the way you operate you never have anything good to say. So goodbye, again." I said peaking through the peak hole and he left. Do I waited for a minute before going to go see my friends. Im even the first person to say it you should wear yourself proudly and not let anyone see you be a wreck but I looked at the sweatpants and tee-shirt i was wearing and just walked down to their dorm like that. I knocked figuring that everything would be just fine. Laney let me in and whispered to me,
"This was his reaction to the Newmans,"
"Your kiddin' you got to be that's just wrong," i said. "Hey guys," i said. Watching Corey rock back and forth hugging his knees in the corner.
"Dude Lauren just survived talking to he crazy ex I think you can figure out the Newmans are here without a panic attack," kin said.
"Dude," I said. "That is so weak! We are grojband! We're fractured and you know that but what does Grojband never do?!" I said trying to be a decent friend.
"Who are you kidding? We aren't Grojband." Corey said standing up. That just kinda hit me and never rolled off.
"You're Corey Riffen, you got this far didn't you? You've always survived the Newmans before, what's the big deal now?" Corey was right we weren't Grojband and of course I knew that but it had just hit me hard just then. "excuse me I have to make a very important call," i said excusing myself. I stepped out of the dorm and I scrolled through my contacts and found my Lawyers. "hello... this is Lauren... i may need you... to help me change my contract... ok great I'll call you if I need you." i hung up and scrolled throught to Lizzie and called her. "hey Lizzie... oh just checking up and asking a question I will probably get a no to... yeah so... well Corey is really struggling without the band... that's not the point... fine mentally he's stressed out... well I was wondering if you could change our contracts so that we can do it for the band with Laney kin Kon and Jenna... I was figuring you would say something like that... well if that's how it's gonna be... no no it's fine im just gonna call my 14 lawyers who who be delighted to find a way out of it for me... bye," Lizzie was always stubborn but when threatened by my Lawyers she did what I wanted her to do. i called my lawyers back and waited for them to do their work and within 5 minutes Lizzie called me back. "hello?," I said.
" I considered what you said and ive got and offer for you," Lizzie said grumpily.
"Great what is it," I said.
"We are going to give you one album, if you can't prove you self from that you and Corey both go back to your old contracts if it's a successful album, we will launch a tour and another album if not, there is not second chances or for you, thirds but you know we love you that's why we just can't turn you down," Lizzie said. I squealed.
"Omg THANKYOU so much we won't disappoint!" I squealed and hung up. I wiped the excited look off my face. I was serious on how I was going to deliver this message. I knocked again.
When they let me in I saw everything was seeming to go fine and nothing dramatic happened.
"Hey guys I have some news," i said.
"First I want you all to hear something," Corey said.
"Sure what is it?" I asked.
"The first song I've ever written," Corey said picking up his guitar, "it isn't great so don't go nuts,"
"Clearly we are moving in a good direction here," Laney said.
"This is like amazing but I have better news," i said.
"Sush," Corey said. beginning to play his song. He was right, it wasn't spectacular but it was pretty good since I heard some of the things Corey had written before.
"That was amazing Core!" Laney said.
"Yeah you can use it for your solo album," kin said excitedly.
"No he can't," i said hiding my excitement behind my straight face. All I got back was five confused stares.
"Okay I'm lost explain," Kon said.
"Ok so..." I said and started to hum the song I had just thought of.
"You were saying?" Kin asked.
"Sorry songwriter flash, yes so remember how we all signed those contracts a month ago?" I said. They just nodded back like "what the heck is she talking about?"
"Ok so I got Lizzie and Marisa to change them." i said.
"Ok what good is this doing us?" Jenna asked.
"Sush im gonna forget how I was gonna say it, Lizzie and Marisa made an agreement to produce Grojband's first album together!" I said excitedly starting to jump up and down.
"Like all of us! One band and they'll launch our first album!" I explained.
"You're kidding right?" Corey asked.
"No way," Laney said.
"Why would I be happy if I was pranking you?" I said. "unfortunately, there is one condition," i continued.
"Oh God Lauren am I gonna want to hear this?" Jenna asked.
"Relax its not that bad," i said. "actually it's good and bad. Ok well if Grojband isn't successful, they are going to stop funding us and make us go back to our old contract. It's good because we get another chance but bad because then we can't be a band."
"I could live with that," kin said.
"I'll still probably have nightmares about how I'm gonna end up with a solo career." Laney said.
"Guys we all had this dream, that we could be successful together. This is a shot and it might be our only shot we got to take it." Corey said.
"Sorry can I borrow this for a second?" I asked Corey picking up his guitar.
"Uh sure why,"
"I've got a song." I explained starting to strum a few chords and sing some lyrics i thought of,
Corey's eyes are like a jungle
He smiles, it's like the radio
He whispers songs into my window
In words that nobody knows
There's pretty girls on every corner
That watch him as he's walking home
Saying, does he know
Will you ever know"
"Sorry had to get that out," I said putting his guitar back. "Oh also Lizzie wants us to go over to go sign it. She she will meet us at the administration desk," i said walking out of the dorm with the rest of them.
