I Need You Now (Lauren / You)

Chapter 32

Your POV

I stood on the roof, then set down on the edge. The wind blew across my face as I looked down. Cars passed the building, and some people were still out.

I wasn't crying. I didn't feel anything. What did I do to deserve this? To be cheated on, again? I'm a good person. And all I want is to be loved, is that so hard? Just to be loved?

I stood up, making my way back inside.

"Leave." I demanded.

"What?" Shay had shock written over her face. She's shocked? I'm fucking shocked.

"I said, get out. Leave. Just, get the hell out!" I shouted. "Pack your shit and leave! I'm tired of getting cheated on! I'm tired of it! So fucking leave!" Shay had tears in her eyes, but nodded.

I set on the couch, my head in my hands. Minuets passed, and I heard my bedroom door shut. I looked up to see Shay, heading towards the door with her suitcase.

"Where will I go?" Shay asked.

"I don't know, nor do I fucking care. Now get out." I said. Shay sighed and opened the door. On the other side of the door is Lauren and Ally.

Shay went around them and left. I walked back inside, hearing Lauren and Ally following me and shutting the door. I leaned against the counter, looking at them.

"Are you okay?" Ally asked.

"Yes." I responded, opening the fridge. "I'm fine. I mean, I got cheated on - again. But that's nothing new." I got the wine out, pouring it in a glass.

"Y/N -"

"Tell me, Lauren," I cut her off. "How the fuck does someone cheat on another person? How can they live with it, huh? When they're in bed with that different person, how do you not think of your girlfriend? How do you not think of anything?"

I'm not being a douche. I just really want to know. Because the way people have been doing it to me, it seems easy.

"I don't know," Lauren murmured. "I guess when you're with that person, you just forget about your spouse. And your caught up in the moment."

"Were you caught up in the moment?" I asked.

Before Lauren could answer, Ally's phone went off. She looked at it and frowned.

"I have to go, it's Troy." Ally said, leaving the apartment.

"Well, were you?" I asked again. "Caught up in the moment?" I stepped closer to her, setting the glass down.

"I-uh." Lauren stammered, backing up.

"Hm?" I hummed, backing her up against the wall. My face was inches away from hers.

She looked at my eyes, down to my lips. I could feel her hot breath on my lips.

"Yes." She whispered. I pressed my lips onto hers, kissing her. But she pulled away. "You're drunk, you'll regret this in the morning."

"No I won't." I said, kissing her again. "Trust me, I want this." I mumbled. Lauren sighed, and kissed back.

And then, we forgot about everything.
