You make everything worse...(Lauren Hemp)

Kinda angsty?

_______________

Being out injured was already hell, you didn't need your girlfriend stressing you out even more. As much as you loved her, she could get a bit overwhelming. You knew she was trying to help but she wasn't always gonna be there for you. In your mind, it was good for you to do stuff by yourself but Lauren had other things in mind.

Lauren didn't want to risk having you fall or worsen your injury, you had gotten a minor knee surgery so you were still on crutches. But the doctor had told you that it was probably time to start practicing to walk on your own, lauren wasn't there for that appointment though. Lauren had her own career going on, you didn't mind that you knew the both of you had lives. You accepted the fact that lauren wasn't gonna be there for you all the time, so you decided to take matters into your own hands.

You were sitting in the living room couch, your crutches were in your hands. You sighed at the little knee pain you had but you could care with it for a couple of seconds. You let the crutches fall and you stood on your dominant leg that wasn't injured. You held onto the coffee table in the middle of the living room, you limped over and tried putting pressure on your injured leg. It didn't hurt badly but it did cause some pain. 

You could keep going, you thought. You had to, or else you're never gonna recover. 

You kept on limping and trying to walk using your injured leg.

You heard footsteps coming into living room, you kept focusing on your leg though.

"Y/N!" you heard lauren yell out, it caused you to fall over onto the couch cushion. You looked up at lauren and furrowed your eyebrows. "What??" you asked impatiently.

"What are you doing walking-" she asked walking over to get your crutches. You got up and tried walking again but lauren pushed you back onto the couch. "Lauren- i got it.." you said standing up again. Lauren got a hold of your wrist and looked at you. "You're not ready. Use these." lauren handed you the crutches but you slapped them away letting them fall on the ground.

"What is wrong with you?" lauren asked.

"Just stop talking! You make everything worse..." you said. Regret filled your body, looking up at your girlfriend who had a slight frown on her face. "Lauren-" you said looking at the crutches on the ground. "I'm sorry...i didn't mean that.." you shook your head. Lauren looked at you in disbelief, she was confused and shocked at the same time. 

"What did i do?" lauren asked.

"Nothing...you didn't do anything wrong." you explained. "You just sometimes stress me out a little...with the trying to help?" you said. "I want to learn how to do stuff on my own i appreciate your help, really..but the doctor said i should start walking or at least try to.. you revealed.

"Why didn't you tell me.." lauren sat next to you. 

"You weren't there for the appointment so i forgot.." you shrugged and looked at her. "I'm sorry i stressed you out a bit, i just don't want to see you get hurt or get worse..." lauren explained.

"It's okay.." you nodded and smiled.

"Do you mind if i at least stay and watch you try to walk.." lauren asked. "Of course, and if i fall...you can pick me up." you smiled.

"I think i might just let you lay there." lauren said crossing her leg over the other.

You scoffed and laughed nudging her a bit with your elbow.
