Chapter 66: What goes around comes back around

Hailee woke up with the phone still on by her side, she'd gone to sleep talking to Fallon about trivial things, anything to hear her voice on the phone.

A knock on the door made her wake up and sit down.

"Hailee..." It was Zayn "It was a good talk yesterday huh? There's a present for you here"

Hailee's eyes widened when she saw the bouquet of roses in his hands, she looked from Zayn to the flowers several times until she smiled from ear to ear and stood up to see up close.

They were beautiful and Hailee knew immediately who they were from... Zayn laughed and said that he would leave her alone to read the card and that she should go down to have coffee.

Hailee jumped on the bed excitedly, wanting to know what Fallon had written. The flowers had her perfume and she hugged them to feel closer to the woman she loved.

Come back,
I miss you.
Fallon

Ah yes, she loved her.
And she was going home.

Lucy snorted for the fifth time since she was released from the hospital, after the conversation she had with Lauren and all the consultations with plastic surgeons to fix the damage that her ex had done to her face she was tired of this city.

There was nothing else here for her, nothing else she could explore or use... Oui, it was time to go back to Paris and forget about this time in her life once and for all.

Getting in the car, she recalled she'd dismissed the driver, she didn't want anyone, not even a stranger to see her nose the way it was. It was a disaster and if Lucy thought she could get away with it she would have Lauren beaten up to see if she liked it. Her ex had overreacted and Lucy would never forgive her, not that Lucy would forgive anything.

She started the car, she was going to a hotel for the night and tomorrow she was going back to Paris on the first flight she found.

"I thought they would never let you go" Lucy almost crashed the car when she heard the voice in the back seat, it couldn't be...

"What are you doing here?" She said desperately, half of her face still bandaged leaving her without her full vision "Are you crazy? I told you to leave me alone, we're done"

"You're the one that's crazy thinking you'll leave me like this..."

"No" She begged "Please"

"Stop the car," He said monotonously and Lucy had no other choice, she knew it was her end... "What goes around comes back around, Lucy"

"Good morning," Camila said kissing the raven's forehead and making her roll over in bed, it was funny how in a few days the two had entered into a routine, even though they were constantly interrupted by paparazzi and the police.

Lauren always wakes up later than Camila and the girls, usually, Camila's always the first to get up, with a few exceptions from Luna - when she is excited about something they were going to do on the day - Liv then wakes up to the noise that Luna makes in the hallway but never Lauren... Lauren kept sleeping as if nothing was happening. Camila suspected that if it weren't for her alarm clock on working days the raven would sleep until lunchtime.

"I don't want to get up" Lauren grunted like a child and Camila laughed pulling her off the bed "Camz!"

"Lauren," She said back laughing "Stop being lazy"
