Ross is the name

Chapter 24

As soon as Ross pulls away, he smiles at her. I clear my throat so they would know I'm there. I feel tears overflowing my eyes.

"Laura, wait! Its not what it loo-"

"No Ross, you want a fake bitch for a girlfriend, fine. I don't need this in my life. I don't need a cheater. I don't need you!"

At this point, tears are just streaming down my face. I look back at Brittany and she's just smiling, like she didn't do anything wrong. I turn on my heels and run. I run past the Lynch's house, past Riker and Emma, who are screaming after me.

Before I can get home, a strong grip is on my waist. I get spun around and come face to face with an upset Ross. I try to wiggle out of his grasp, but his hold on me only tightens.

"Let me go Ross! Leave me alone and go make out with britt-"

Before I could continue, I feel his lips crash into mine. My first instinct is to kiss back, but I stop myself. I push him away from me and continue to wriggle around, trying to escape his grasp, which is getting stronger by the minute.

"Laura, you have to listen to me! We were caught up in the moment. After you pushed her dow-"

"You still believe that shit Ross? I told you, I didn't do anything to your stupid little friend back there. Can't you see that? She was trying to break us apart, and she got her wish, because we are over!"

"Laura, Brit would never do anything like that! I've known her since I was in kindergarten! She wouldn't try to break us up. She's not the jealous type. If anything, that's you!"

By this point, more tears start flowing down my face. "Believe what you want, but you have five seconds to let me go before I start screaming so loud that the neighbors think your harassing me."

With that, he let me go. "Laura, don't do this...we can work this out. Please! I'm begging you! I love you Laura."

"It's too late for that, Ross" I turn away and run to the corner of the street. I look at Ross one last time, just enough time to see him fall to his knees with Brittany right by his side.

I run home, and call the only person who I knew would not be busy. I would've called Lauren, but I knew she was on a date, and I didn't want to disturb her. I didn't call Emma since she was still with Riker. I quickly grab my phone and dial the number that I never thought I would dial again.

"Hello?"

"Mike? It's Laura."

Hey everyone. Short chapter, I know. I might have another one up tonight, and if not tonight, definitely tomorrow.
