Laura's Pov

Crying.

That's all I have been doing for these past couple of hours. My eyes are practically soar by now, but I can't help it but cry with sorrow. I have been locked in my room for hours crying over by my swing, which is in the middle of my room. Dad had just hung it last month for me, which I begging him non-stop to buy and hang it, and believe it or not he did it.

I can't believe they have been keeping that big of a secret for so long. And yet, they haven't told us. I thought there would be no secrets between us. I trusted them, I trusted him.

Many people kept on knocking on my door, trying to let themselves in, asking why was I crying, etc. Some of them even tried to open it up by some hair pin (they were too loud at talking). But I haven't open up the door yet, till' Vanessa came.

"Laura? Can you open the door please?" Seeing how she is kind, she's usually only like this if we are sad or something.

I stood up slowly from the swing, still hugging the big teddy beat Ross gave me when I was five. I open the door revilling Vanessa in a concern look. Once I open it, Vanessa instantly hug me closing the door behind her with her foot. The Lynches looking at me in a shock look but was locked out from the door.

"What happen?" She said, placing both of us gently in my bed.

I then remembered everything I've heard 2 hours ago and cried like a river.

Vanessa kept hugging me saying things to relax me like, 'its okay' 'let it all out' or something like that.

After 15 minutes, I have finally relaxed.

"Now," she lets go of me making some space between us. "what happen?"

"Well," I hicupped. "Earlier I went to the Lynches, cause I want Riker to teach me something about Math. Since no one was in their room, I went to the basement to check them if they're there. And when I went down..." I suddenly started crying again, unable to stop the tears from flowing.

I don't really know why I am crying this much.

"Shh." Vanessa soothed me.

"I heard them talking about their future. I didn't mean to eavesdrope, but I heard them say they will be going to Hollywood to start they're new album or something. And they have been keeping a secret from us for a long time." I then started crying like a river.

I can't believe they're going to leave us without telling us.

I think Vanessa started shaking, then just fainted.

"Laura, how are the exams coming up?" Dad asked.

I kept on playing with my food with no concern with my health anymore.

"Fine." I plainly said, without looking up.

"Okay. Um, what about you honey? Did you choose what kind of college are you entering?" He asked Vanessa.

I hope Vanessa won't burst out this time.

"Y-yeah, it's great." She stuttered, giving them a sly smile.

"Okay."

The doorbell rang, "I'll get it." I muttered, excusing myself quietly. I lazily walked towards the door, not putting any expression on my face, from being tired from crying.

I opened the door to find Ross smiling, like he doesn't have anything to hide from.

I did what I was meaning to do since I had heard their conversation, I slapped him.
