Security

"Ready to go Miss Jauregui?" You asked, standing in her hotel doorway.

Lauren nodded and reached for her bag, before putting it over her shoulder. You could see faint tear stains on her face, but didn't want to bring it up because it wasn't really your place to. Being her security guard, your job was to keep her safe from any harm and to protect her from the paparazzi or large crowds. Each of the girls had their own assigned security guard and you were Lauren', you had been for just over a year now.

In that time, you had grown quite close to the singer, learnt all of her habits and recognized how she was feeling at certain times. Now, you could tell that she was quite anxious and nervous, two emotions that she felt quite a lot recently. The brunette was finding it kind of difficult to deal with all the attention and fame, she loved her fans but the paparazzi could be quite demanding at times, and this made her anxiety hit the roof.

You looked to the singer with sympathetic eyes, and asked her if she was okay.

In response, Lauren nodded but then reached out her arm to link it with yours. "Please can I stay close to you, I'm kinda feeling anxious today." She admitted and you nodded in understanding.

Just as you closed the hotel door behind you both, Will, the girl's tour manager walked down the corridor.

"Hi Lauren, you ready for today?" He greeted with his usual smile.

The singer gave a small smile and nod, disguising the fact that she knew that it would be an emotionally challenging day.

"We have a radio interview right?"

Will nodded and Lauren linked her arm back in yours, as you followed down the corridor to the elevator.

"Yep, a few blocks from here."..."I told the cars to wait on the street for us and the girls are in the lobby."..."Let's get this show on the road." He replied, as you all stepped into the enclosed space and the doors slid closed behind you.

***********

The ride down to the lobby was pretty silent, you could feel Lauren trembling by your side and you reached for her hand reassuringly. The singer smiled to you with gratitude as you squeezed her hand gently in yours.

When the doors eventually opened, you were greeted by Camila, Mani, Ally and Dinah.

"Hi!" They all said in sync, and you were about to remove your hand from Lauren's so that she could hug her friends, but she squeezed tight.

"Hi guys." Lauren said softly and then Will spoke up again.

"Right guys, we're all here and the cars are here, let's go!"

The other four singers stood near their security guards and started to leave the hotel, Will held the door open and that's when you heard the commotion from outside.

You gently entwined your fingers with Lauren's and gave her a look that meant everything would be okay. She looked kind of scared and you went into protective mode, walking her out of the hotel and towards the parked cars.

As you left the hotel, there were cameras and flashing light everywhere. The other girls greeted their fans and the crowd was going crazy. The paparazzi were trying their hardest to photograph every moment, and that's when you heard a timid voice from your side. "Y/n, I don't feel go-good."

You turned your attention away from the crowd and looked to her. "Laur?"

The girl seemed out of breath and you looked in concern as she pressed her hand to her chest.

"I-uh-i pani-panic att-attack." She stuttered and you immediately realized what was happening.

"Right, okay, breathe darling." You cooed, still holding her hand in your own and looking into her eyes.
