Gonna Get Better - Lauren Jauregui / Michael Clifford (5HSOS)

' Hey.. I'm Michael'

Pov Lauren

' Dinah, can't you hurry up?!' I shouted.
'I'm ready!! Just one minute' Dinah replied while I was still waiting.
I looked in the mirror, brushed my hair and grabbed my bag.
' I'm ready' Dinah said when she walked of the stairs.
' Finally, let's go' I said when I opened the door.
' oh wait, my phone' Dinah said when she walked to her room again; we all have our own room, Dinah, Normani and I. We are best friends since we were on high school and since a few months we live together.
Normani is on holiday with her boyfriend so this week Dinah and I are just with us two.
I sighed.
Normally I'm excited to go out but today it feels different. I just broke up with my -now ex- boyfriend because he cheated.
If it were up to me I'm just laying in my bed watching Netflix series with a jar of Nutella, but Dinah didn't let me.
She said I had to make fun and forget my ex, even though I'm not in the mood to meet other boys.

' Can you drive?' Dinah asked when she gave me her car keys.
I nodded. ' Sure'.

' Oh my god, look at this boy' Dinah began when she winked to a brown haired boy who was walking in front of our car. ' Dinah.. I..' I began when my eyes went to his denim short with a black t-shirt; ' proud to be gay '.
' Yes he's very cute!' I said.
' Anyways, how about you and boys? Are you still talking with Niall?' I asked Dinah while I was looking for a parking lot.
' Yes we are' Dinah replied. ' It's getting pretty serious'.
' Ahww DJ!! You're in love' I said.
Dinah blushed.
' I'm not even trying to deny it because yes I am '.

We weren't even here for 15 minutes and I already lost Dinah.
She's probably at the toilet.
When I walked towards the toilet I saw her dancing with some other people.
She's always so excited but today I'm not in the mood to party with her.

' Hey, are you here alone?' A voice behind me asked.
When I turned around I saw a purple haired guy standing in front of me. He was really tall and was wearing black skinny jeans with a leather jacket.
' No.. I'm with my friend' I answered.
' Cool' the boy began.
' Do you want something to drink? What's your name btw?' .
' Uhm.. Yeah that would be great.. I'm Lauren' I said.
' I'm Michael' Michael said.

' So.. How are you Lauren?' He asked while we both were drinking our drinks.
' I'm good.. I guess' I murmured.
' You're okay?' He asked.
' I just broke up with my boyfriend, he cheated' I said.
' Oh.. I'm really sorry for you..' Michael said.
' Thanks but I just don't care about him anymore, he's just another stupid fuckboy' I said frustrated.
' How long were you guys together?' Michael asked when he took a sip from his drink.
' James and I were 8 months together, until I saw his messages with a girl, who's name is Mona..' I sighed.
' Ugh stupid Mona' Michael said.
I laughed.

When I looked at him I saw a lots of tattoos.
Most of them were on his arms.

' You like them?' I heard Michael saying.
I didn't even know I was staring for so long.
' Uhm yes! They look really cool' I said.
' Thanks! Do you have any tattoos?' Michael asked.
I nodded when I showed him my arm.
' This Roman number means 27, it's a really special number to me' I began.
' This dragonfly is in honor for my grandma who passed away' I said when I turned around so he could see my dragonfly in my neck.
' Wow.. That's really beautiful..' Michael said.
' Do you have any meanings?' I asked him.
' This one means ' Home' ' He said when he showed me his arm.
' This X means something with final fantasy' Michael said when he winked to his fingers.
' I love it' I said.
' Thanks'.

' I also love your hair btw, did you dye that?' I asked.
Ugh what a stupid question, I'm so awkward
' Yup! I always dye my hair, this month I'm purple!' Michael explained.
' It really suit you Michael' I smiled.

' Where are you coming from? If I can ask that' Michael just asked.
' I'm from Miami, I live here' I answered.
' Cool, I'm from Sydney' Michael said.
' Sydney!? What are you doing here in Miami?' I asked.
He didn't say anything.
It looked like he had to think first.
' I'm traveling the world..' He began.
' These weeks I'm in Florida'.
' Aren't you going to school?' I asked.
Michael shacked his head. ' Nope, I stopped my school' .
' Why?' I asked.
' Just because of some stupid things' Michael answered but before I could ask why, he already asked me. 'Are you going to school?' .
I nodded.
' I'm going to the university of Miami'.

' I had fun Lauren' Michael said while we were walking outside were I already saw Dinah waiting on me.
I smiled.
Michael seemed so interested and nice to me. I could talk with him about everything this night, something I couldn't do with my ex boyfriend.
' Me too, I had fun Michael' I smiled.
' I'll text u' Michael said.

' See you Michael'
' Yeah see you Lauren'
