The secret

Chapter 1

"Avery mother fucking Abel!" Laura shouted through the crowd of people. Laura had been her best friend since, well since a long time ago. 

Laura isn't like other girls out there. She's in her third year of college, where she's majoring in the puppeteer arts. She always had a weird fascination for puppets, maybe because they moved in ways she never could. While on the side she was stripper, she recently got some work done and was the new it girl of her club. But to be honest she only worked there because the of the felony she had. It was for pissing in her neighbors yard. destruction of property. Stupid, really. But she needed to put food on the table for her daughter and husband.

"Laura!" Avery squealed, they hadn't seen each other for over a week and this will be the last time they can hang out before Avery ships her self off to Italy for her high school senior trip. 

Avery pulls Laura into a tight, quick embrace before placing a sloppy wet kiss on the side of her face, "I know it's been a week, but it's been way to long."

Laura dips her last fry in left over mustered splattered across her plate. They try every Tuesday to get lunch together at Joe's diner. Mainly because Laura claims that she really likes the fries but Avery sees how she looks at Joe. It's sad for Caiden, her husband, but really is it? He doesn't work, and that's why Laura has to be a stripper. She can only work night shifts when their baby is sleeping because Caiden doesn't want to take care of baby Margeaux. Maybe it's okay if Laura only stares at his muscular arms for a couple hours instead of her husbands. He doesn't have to know.

"How's life as my newly graduated girl." Laura says finally taking her eyes off Joe. She gives Avery a little nudge with her foot under the table that makes Avery let out a small giggle before wiping her face of crumbs.

"You know it's actually great. I feel so free, like there's no responsibilities. I can just read books and binge eat boxes of Oreos." Avery sighs and looks down at her now empty plate. Laura takes the straw out her mouth, "Here we go." Laura puffs "I just miss her so much." Avery finally lets out, "You have to get over her, Avery, she cheated on you, you." "It doesn't change all the good parts from our relationship. I just, the only thing on my mind is her. It always has been and i'm afraid it always will be." Avery looks up at Laura through the hoods of her eyes, her hazel eyes glistening perfectly in the sun.

"No. This summer you're gonna sleep with a bunch of hot Italians that are gonna make you lots of good Italian pizza and you won't even think twice about her." Laura protests as she slams her drink down on the table.

The bell attached to the door of the diner rattles and in walks Arianna and Jamie.

Laura is right, Kate is an asshole.
