The Road Trip

New roomie (CH13)

RECAP

"I guess your just pissed because you've never had a girl chase after you." James said. And it was something in his tone, perhaps the air, the atmosphere that really pissed Daniel off enough for him to take a step foward and punch James across the face. 

RECAP OVER

"Holy shit!" Cara covered her mouth in shock as she watched Daniel jump on top of James and clench his fists around his jumper.

Everyone came running over. Luke pulled back Daniel as Cara and Josh went down to check on James. "Dude whats gotten into to you?!" Luke shouted at Daniel.

"Fucking James! He always does this to me! Always tries to make me jealous and just take away everything from me! I told him how I felt but he still asked her out!" Daniel blurted out as he tried to escape from Luke to get back hold of James.

Cara gasped as she looked up at Daniel. "Is that...really how you feel?" Cara asked as tears filled her eyes. "Dont listen to him Cara! He was too slow! I told him I was going to make my move! He did no shit about it!" James yelled as he tried to get up and fight back.

Cara looked at them both in disappointment. "Sorry.. Im just going to go into the van for a bit. Let me know when you want to go to the hotel." Cara said in a sad tone.

Everyone watched as Cara walked away quickly and went into the van. Lauren even saw her wipe a tear away. Luke had held back Daniel and brought him away from the group with Ryan.

Josh and Kayla were with James trying to calm him down. Lauren discreetly went into the van a few minutes after Cara went in.

CARA AND LAUREN- 3:30pm

Lauren went in through the door and saw Cara resting her head on her arms on the table.

She looked deep in thought and confused. "Heeeey girl." Lauren went over and smiled at Cara. Cara said nothing. "Ehem.. are you okay?" Lauren asked a bit scared.

"You know what, I'm not. I am certainly not okay! Why now Lauren? Why? I had liked Daniel for years on end! And now he suddenly wants to date me when I was so happy with James? But now James is also in the deep end cause he only asked me out to make Daniel jealous!" Cara shouted as she choked on the last few words.

"Cara, I understand how you feel. It may not be the same but I know how you feel. Confused, destroyed, hurt, heartbroken and crushed." Lauren consoled as she thought back to Sierra and Luke. "I feel like me and you can always relate to a certain level with these kind of things. And I am really glad I have you in my life Laur." Cara said as she hugged Lauren.

"Things will get better Cara. You just need to keep strong and take a break from boys." Lauren said. They sat there and chatted for about an hour while everyone else was outside.

"Yoohoo! We're coming in now!" Jeremy called into them. "Yeah okay come in." Lauren called back. Cara avoided eye contact with the separated James and Daniel. "Okay so lads, to the hotel?" Ken called back. "To the hotel!" Most of the group exclaimed.

4:50pm

"Here, what are we going to do about the rooms?" Courtney was debating with Luke and Josh. "Ooo shit thats going to be a problem." Josh whispered. "Eh, Daniel can bunk with me and Lauren for the night, I guess.." Luke trailed off.

Courtney smirked at him. "Hmm, you sure?" She smiled deviously at him. "Yo lads whats going on over here?" Stuart came over as he stuck his nose in their conversation.
