Work Friends {STAUREN} (DISCONTINUED FOR NOW)

Italy: Rome

*Lauren Pov*

We never made it to dinner that night or breakfast that morning but we were excited for lunch. Vincent was slightly annoyed at us for telling him we decided to cancel right when he was waiting outside of our home last night, but he was still cheery nonetheless.

"I'm starving," Steven groaned as we drove through the crowded Rome Streets. My phone buzzed and I looked down, my eyes widened at the story that formed on my big screen. I quickly ducked my phone back into my pocket and nodded slowly. How was I going to tell him?

"Me-me too," I agreed, watching as he tilted his head towards the window, he looked so peaceful. His fancy camera he barely let me touch hug around his neck. His fingers traced across the buttons in thought. He looked at me and saw that I was watching him, he turned from me nervously and I smiled. It gave me butterflies that he still got nervous under my stare. He looked back again and this time I turned from him, he reached and grasped my hand tightly. His body relaxed and he tilted his head towards the window yet again. I did the same and absorbed the Italian streets and homes, it was a mystery to why I hadn't been here before. Everything just seemed so peaceful and airy. The car stopped in front of a little restaurant and Vincent turned to us, smiling. His dark eyes traced our faces and he gestured to the building.

"Best breakfast in town!" He said with a slight laugh and we smiled. Steven and I got out of his SUV and walked into the building, to our surprise they greeted us in English.

"Hello!" The hostess said with a wide smile, her nice lips were coated in a glossy, deep red color. Her hair was black and in waves passed her shoulders. Steven and I smiled at her and she quickly sat us at a table. Steven and I glanced at our menus but I wasn't really focused. The headline played over and over in my head.

"Laur?" Steven asked snapping me back to reality.

"Yes, what?" I asked in a panic, he chuckled slightly and leaned in towards me.

"You were kinda dozing off...." He said slowly.

"Yeah, I'm sorry! Just tired," I laughed.

"You seem worried about something," Steven said with a confused and concerned look.

"I'm not worried," I stated looking back down at the menu. Steven sighed and reached out for my hand.

"Don't lie," He said with a small smile.

"I swear I'm not lying Steven!" I said with a small laugh but he looked at me with hard eyes. "Ok, fine. I guess, I'm just nervous.... about people finding out."

"About the baby?" He asked.

"Yeah," I replied, biting my lip. I should just tell him.

He nodded and ran a hand through his hair, "That's understandable, Hollywood goes crazy over babies."

"Steven?" I said lowly and he looked up at me. "I think people already found out." His eyes went wide and his jaw tightened.

"What do you mean?" He asked in a surprisingly calm tone. I took out my phone and unlocked it, his eyes watched my every move. I slide it over to him and looked at the menu again, trying to hide the hurt, confusion and disbelief on my face. "Wha- that ass..." Steven said lowly. "This is bullshit!" He said handing my phone back to me, the article was only half read.

I scrolled back to the headline again.

LAUREN COHAN PREGNANT BY LOVER STEVEN YEUN!

I sighed and dropped my phone, I hadn't even read the article yet. I went to pick up my phone again, so I could read it, but Steven grabbed my hand and shook his head.
