She's the music to my soul (Camren fic)

Chapter 22

Monday, September 15th 8:00am
Over the past week I've been skeptical of Josh, every time he isn't with me the only thing I can think of is that he's with some other chick. I went to meet him at his locker to ask him if he wanted to hang out and I had went to the library to do some research and there was only seven minutes of class left so I just didn't go back that way I'd be early. As I rounded the corner I saw Josh making out with the same girl I caught him cheating on me with at the party. "I'm so stupid!" I stated loud enough for him to hear and I turned and walked away I can't believe I was stupid enough to actually think that he didn't mean to cheat on me and that he deserved another chance, wow.. I heard quick footsteps behind me and I assumed it was him, he grabbed my wrist and spun me back to face him. "Laur it was a mistake." I tuned out the rest of his bull crap because at this point I had made up my mind, I played the fool once but not again. "Josh how long?" I asked "How long what?" He tried to play stupid "How long have you been playing me and cheating on me?" He was silent for a moment as if he was trying to come up with a lie "about.. About a umm m-month." I can't believe it, how could I have been so blind "A month? You've been playing me for a month? Un-freaking-believable!" "Laur I'm sorry." "Yeah well, we're over and I'm NOT sorry. You're gonna realize that you just lost the best thing you ever had, so I hope she's worth it. Really I do because apparently I wasn't." I stormed away ignoring all his pleas.

It was lunch and I was back in my 'don't bother me' mood, I sat at the soccer field instead of in the lunch room. I wallowed in pain until the bell rang. I headed into third period three pairs of eyes on me as I sat down, I placed my phone on the table and kept my gaze lowered to my hands. My phone started going haywire with texts from Josh, it was getting out of control and I could feel everyone's eyes on me so I quickly turned my phone completely off. All of a sudden realization hit me, the guy that I love cheated on me for a month and smiled in my face like nothing happened. Was I not good enough? Was I not pretty enough? Questions of doubt started to fill my head and it all felt like too much. I couldn't breathe, No matter how hard I tried to take a deep breath, I couldn't. I clutched my chest with my hand just trying to breathe but to no avail. "Laur, are you alright? Hey look at me. What's wrong?" I could barely make out what he was saying. I have to get out of here. I-I have to, have to get out of here! I rose to my feet and rushed out of the classroom and into the hallway. I didn't make it very far before collapsing to the ground, still gasping for air. I felt an arm wrapped around my torso pulling me into them "Laur I'm right here, breathe babe breathe." It was Ashton and I tried to breathe like he told me but I couldn't. "Listen to my voice Laur, just breathe. Everything's fine." After a few seconds of what felt like minutes of listening to Ashton's voice I finally calmed down and I could breathe again "Good just breathe, tell me what's going on." "H-He c-cheated on me. I caught him twice and b-before I broke up with him, h-he told me he's been cheating on me for a m-month." I forced out before sobbing completely. "All the pain you feel babe, the anger and sadness. Release it through what you're best at, write a song or five. I honestly can't believe you stayed with him after he cheated the first time but make him see what he gave up. Show him you're better without him, you've got happiness and he can't take that away." In this moment I was truly grateful for having Ashton in my life, he knew how to make me feel better no matter my mood.

When I turned my phone back on I had about thirty messages from Josh. I really just wanted him to leave me alone. I decided to go to sleep and let my worries wash away for the night.

Tuesday, September 16th 8:00am
I decided to keep to myself during school but I didn't fail to see Josh and his whatever she was to him, walking around holding hands. While I was at my locker it felt like someone was watching me and when I looked to my left I saw Josh staring at me. I turned back around not giving him the attention he wanted from me.

No POV

It was about to be lunch time and Lauren had too many thoughts running through her head. She knew exactly where she was going for lunch, to the music room to write that song Ashton told her to write.
--
She sat at the piano hitting random notes, slowly stringing together a melody.

Camila decided to go to the music room just to mess around, on her way there she was wondering what time Tori would be back but that thought was quickly pushed aside when she reached the slightly cracked door she froze upon hearing such an angelic voice singing with so much passion.

(I wrote this song, sorry if it's crappy but oh well)
You made a mistake
Won't suffer heartbreak
Not for you, not for anyone
(Won't take it no)
To you I'm naïve
But I'm smarter than you think
(Won't take it no)

Now you're saying that you need me
You didn't mean to take it there
You're not worth the air you breathe
You may think that it's unfair
Got no more tricks left up your sleeve

Camila clapped drawing Lauren's attention, causing her to jump. "Sorry if I scared you, I didn't know anyone would be in here." Camila apologized "It's fine." Lauren responded with no emotion so Camila opted for another subject. "That's a nice song, I could feel the emotion in the way you sang it." "Thanks, I just came up with it as I was singing." Camila was astonished at the girls talent "Seriously?! Melody and all?" A small smile graced Lauren's face after her teacher's reaction, it was the first time she had smiled all day and if she was being honest all week really. "Yeah, I just needed to get things off my chest ya know?" Camila nodded her head knowing the feeling "Wow you're really talented Miss Jauregui." Lauren thanked her. "I'm guessing from the lyrics, the song is about Josh. So you wanna tell me what happened?" The green eyed girl found her teacher really easy to talk to and really comforting, like she's known her forever, which she found odd because she has never had that connection with anyone not even her best friends. "Long story short, I forgave Josh after my talk with you and yesterday I caught him cheating on me again with the same girl he had sex with at the party. Before I broke up with him I asked him how long he's been cheating on me. A whole freaking month and I had no clue because I'm stupid and blind and I played the fool in his little game." Camila used her index finger to lift Lauren's head to make eye contact with her "Lauren listen to me, you're not stupid just because you were cheated on. If anything he's the stupid one, I mean look at you you're a Goddess and you're sweet and kindhearted and talented. He's a fool for messing things up with you and far too immature for you if he couldn't see what was right in front of him." The younger girl threw her arms around her teacher's neck, thankful for every word she said to her. After a few minutes she let go feeling lighter "Now let's get to class, you can sit beside me if you want." Lauren nodded her head and opted for sitting beside Camila because at this point she knew everyone had seen Josh with that other girl and she didn't want to be questioned, or sympathized and she sure as heck didn't want to hear the whispers about the situation. She didn't pay attention during class she just worked on the song she was writing and Camila didn't really expect her to listen, especially after what she's been through.
--
For the remainder of the week Lauren wrote 6 songs just about her breakup and her foolishness, for the next concert she wanted it to consist of these songs because she knew Josh would be there. They rehearsed for an extra hour everyday just to make sure they had the songs down pack.
