Lauren's POV.

This was going to be fun. I really missed my family but the way Chris thinks that I'm here to steal his girl away from him is funny as hell.

I tell you, you make one mistake one time and you get branded forever.

But if I wanted her I would have her already. Just saying. Honestly though, I have to admit she was extremely beautiful yet she seemed really shy. I couldn't help but notice the lack of eye contact she made or how fidgety she was.

I sat on the couch with my arms behind my head and feet rested up on the table. I looked around to see if anyone was going to start moving and get me some food.

"Umm hey guys. I'm still here and still hungry." I waved and mom came by and pushed my feet down.

"You know Lauren it is lovely to have you back home, but that doesn't mean that we are going to be serving you." I rolled my eyes and sighed.

I pouted and rolled my eyes. "Ugh I guess I can deal with that."

"You're going to have to." Taylor jumped in and I looked over at her and flipped her off as she returned and stuck her tongue out.

"Well you know I would love to chat with you all." I said as I stood up and went by Chris and Cassidy. "But. I should really go and get some rest." I smiled when I noticed how close I had gotten to Cassidy. I just kept my eyes on her even though she looked down.

"Alright Lauren you can leave now." Chris said and pushed my shoulder away.

I laughed and shrugged. "She didn't seem to have a problem with it."

I watched him grip his hands around her hand I could tell it hurt her by the way she struggled to move it away from him. "Well just go." I ignored him and watched the pain and fear go through her face.

I ran my fingers through my hair and grabbed my bags and made my way upstairs as I slowly took my eyes off her. I knew something had to be going on, and I was going to find out.

***

"Why would you let her touch you like that! Huh?!" Is what I heard coming from across the hall.

I rolled over to feel for my phone and check the time. I ran my hands over my face when I saw that it was 3:16 in the morning. Ugh really who could be making this much noise at this time.

I huffed as I got up out of my bed and pushed myself out the room slowly walking out.

As I made it out the door I was met by those familiar beautiful yet sad eyes. "Oh, umm h-hi Lauren, sorry for waking you." She said softly and put her head down.

I moved a little closer and laughed.

"No it's fine. Are you ok Cassidy?" I asked slowly.

"Umm yeah I'm fine." She said but I knew better than to believe that.

I raised her head up more so that I could see her face.

I gasped at what I saw. And even though I didn't know her well my whole entire body heated up with anger. Her entire right cheek was red and swollen, along with her eye. She had a bruise on her nose and cut on her lip.

"How did this happen? Huh, did Chris do this?" I said in one breath. She silently shook her head.

"Well I heard yelling, you sure?"

She nodded as tears threatened to fall. "I'm fine. I promise." Her voice came out raspy making chills spread throughout my body.

"Look you can tell me I'm not as big of an asshole that Chris says I am."

She smiled a bit and sighed. "I'm fine. Really this was just an accident."

There then was just a silence between us and I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. She looked so hurt and damaged. I knew what she was telling me want the truth but i was going to wait until she was comfortable enough to tell me on her own.

This may sound crazy and I know that we just met but. It felt like we had a real connection and we haven't even had a real conversation yet. She was just so different from Camila, I could tell.

I could feel myself leaning in closer but she wasn't moving at all. As I got up close enough to touch her lips she moved back. "Umm.."

She continued to back away. I watched her every move as she pushed her hair out of her face and talked.

"I'm really sorry for waking you up again and I need to go to the bathroom but I hope you can get back to sleep." She nodded and started to walk off but I grabbed her arm and she hissed in pain so I let go quickly.

"I'm sorry. What happened, Chris didn't do that either?" I asked sarcastically

"You know what Lauren, no he didn't but I'm not even supposed to be talking to you so I have to go. Let's just forget this happened." She whispered.

I sighed and watched her limp away slowly to the bathroom. Well now I know for sure that Chris is doing something to her no matter what she says and its nothing good.
