"Tomorrow is Halloween Y/N! You have to come with us to take Sofia and Dinah's twelve siblings out! Fifth Harmony family fun remember?"
In truth you just couldn't go out. You lost your family when you were young, people dressed up as horror movie villians slaughtered them while they were trick or treating. You moved in with your auntie until you were old enough to live on your own. You moved in with the girls at the start of the year after dating Lauren for a year, you felt bad that you kept blowing off Halloween with the girls but you couldn't tell them why.

"Baby please, you blew us off last year as well why don't you want to come out with us?"
You looked into sad green eyes and sighed.
"Laur, even if I did want to go I don't have a costume. Also I've just never been a fan of Halloween..."

You heard a gasp and turned to see Dinah wearing an offended expression.
"What do you mean your 'Not a fan of Halloween?' It's the the number holiday that lets you dress up like an idiot and eat sweets!"

You rolled your eyes and saw Camila come into the room, maybe she could take the two girls away.
"Guys need you to help me with my Halloween costume. Like now!"
She half-begged, half-demanded.

"Woah! Chill out chancho, what's wrong?"
"My god damned Harry Potter robe is twisted and I can't untwist it!"
She was annoyed, she must have been trying to get it out for a while.

"Camz it's okay we'll come help, and you! We will finish this discussion later okay?" Lauren looked into your eyes and you felt your heart flutter.
"Okay baby but I need to head out to the store to get the sweets and junk food for movie night, I'll be back soon."
You kissed her cheek and grabbed your car keys to go get the groceries.

Ally P.O.V

"ALLY GET THE PHONE! WE'RE BUSY AT THE MOMENT!"
"CAMILA STOP MOVING I SWEAR TO GOD!"
"MANI DON'T SHOUT AT HER LIKE THAT!"

'Why? Why couldn't I have been put with less aggressive girls?' I thought as I grabbed the phone, an unknown number huh?

(Normal is Ally, italics is your auntie)
"Hello?"
"Hello is Y/N there?"
"Uh no she's not here she just ran to the grocery store. Sorry but who is this?"
"Oh my apologies, I'm Y/N's aunt, I was just calling her to check see how she's holding up, I know how hard this time of the year is for her. I mean I think it would be for everyone if their family was brutally murdered by masked creeps. Poor thing was only 8 at the time, she never goes out on Halloween after what happened. It's a good thing she has you girls to help me feel happy though, she deserves people like you especially Lauren."

Oh my lord. So that's my she's been crying at the mention of family over the past week, and why she blew us off.... And we've been pressuring her, oh no!

"Uh.., y-yeah we know how hard it is for her and we do all that we can, however I'm sorry but I have to go as the girls need my help with something yeah! So um... Maybe we can talk again sometime, I'll let Y/N know you called! Okay bye!"

I hung up the phone and ran upstairs to where the rest of the girls where. I swear I tried not to cry in those few seconds getting there, but just as it reach the door, my tears start free falling. I feel so horrible, so guilty, even though I had no idea that happened we all pressured her into going.

I open the door and all the girls look at me then I break down further. Normani catches me before I hit the ground and then I'm enveloped in a hug, Lord knows I'm not the one needing the hug.
"Allycat what happened? What's wrong? Who was on the phone?"
"Mani we are so stupid.... We... We pressured her and wouldn't let her explain...... S-s-she's been through some-something Horrible!"

"Ally what are you talking about? Please your scaring me, is it Y/N? What happened?"
"Laur she's okay.... Well not really but she's okay."
I was being stared at and took a deep breath before explaining the phone call.

"Oh my god.... I'm a horrible girlfriend!"

************
Your P.O.V

Finally home, I should have asked Ally or Mani to come with me to help me with the bags holy hell. I put the bags in the kitchen and then hear a gut wrenching sob come from upstairs.

"Oh my god.... I'm a horrible girlfriend!"

At hearing Lauren's cry you ran up the stairs as fast as your legs could carry you and burst through the door wondering what the hell happened for her to say something so shitty about herself.
"Baby what's wrong, what happened?" You pleaded looking into her eyes holding her face in your hands.

"I-I-I'm so sorry Y-Y/N! I d-didn't know a-an-and I've p-probably h-h-hurt YOU! I'm so-so sorry!" She sobbed and cried out while shaking.
"What baby no! No you could never hurt me. Don't think that, what's happened?"

"Y/N, your auntie called us and we know now why you don't go out and we're so sorry. We've been pressuring you and you never told us. We are so sorry."
Camila filled you in on why Lauren was beating herself up.

"Oh god, guys..... Please don't feel bad, if I had told you it would have made it easier but it hurts to talk about, the killers were never caught so it makes it worse. Please do no blame yourselves, I never said and I should have."
You opened your arms motioning for a group hug. All of the girls hugged you and you kept and tighter hold on Lauren.

"Guys.... I want to go out this year because I need to get over it and not be afraid, well you can never really get over the death of your family but you know what I mean. What do you say you help me find a costume and we get to watching some movies?!" You lightened the mood and after three hours of searching and laughing you were all tired out eating Chinese food on the couch, waiting for tomorrow night to arrive.
