Irresistible - Lauren Cimorelli

Chapter 6; Heartbreak Girl.

"Holy shit! There they are!" I hear whispers  as Lauren stands next to me, as if she's guarding me from people who I hate. I hate basically everyone, even though I'm increasingly popular. 

"Flo! Are you and Lauren really together?!" I hear someone scream from the other end of the hallway and I sigh heavily. It's like I'm being interviewed by some reporter person, I don't even know how to feel about Lauren and I being the two that the whole school watches every move of ours. It's funny how one girl could've changed my whole world and I'm glad of it.

"Yes," I shout back and the arrogantly scream loudly. You know how some girls do when they get really excited? Yeah, she was one of those girls. It's really weird having Lauren here with me.

I mean, I love her so much. I've waited for this. I've wanted this for a long time but I never really thought it'd be a reality. Lauren Cimorelli dating Flo Clifford? Impossible.

But it's not because we're dating?

It just makes me feel like I'm dreaming. 

---

Lauren and I have been dating for just over a month. I love the stupid conversations we have while we're lying on top of her bed, just giggling there. Careful not to kiss or talk romantically around her family as we both still haven't come out. 

Lauren has 5 other sisters and 5 brothers while I have two other sisters. Skye and Bella. Bella is 13 and has already had more boyfriends than me. 

I knock on Lauren's front door and yet Dani opens it. "Oh, hi Flo." Dani smiles and I smirk. 

"Hi Dani, is Lauren home?" I ask as Dani lets me in.

"Yeah, she's up in her room." 

I nod before running upstairs as quickly as I can. I'm going to take Lauren out to dinner tonight, to surprise her.

I push her door open, my eyes trail to her bed only to see a blonde figure on top of Lauren and I feel my heart tense as they're making-out.

"What the fuck?!" I shout loudly, my heart racing - I can't feel anything but my heart breaking, or more like shattering as the girl looks up at me. 

Mindi.

Tears fall quickly yet swiftly out of my eyes, drifting down my cheeks elegantly. "Fuck you. Fuck you both.  To think I was ever good enough for you Lauren, was second mistake. My first was falling deeply in love with you." I shake my head before wiping my eyes. 

"Shit Flo, are you okay?" Mindi asks me because she knows I only cry when I'm really broken.

"Well fuck you, you know I'm in love with her. You know I love her more than anything else and you go and make-out with her? You bitch. I don't want to talk to you ever again." I tell Mindi and her green eyes start to water.

Lauren falls off of her bed and stands up straight.

"Flo, c'mon. We were only-..."

"Shut up Lauren! Just shut up! Okay?! You...You just...How long were you cheating on me for?" I ask her and she raises her eyebrows.

"I started dating Mindi three days after we started dating." She replies and I fell my fist hit the door. 

"Fuck you! Fuck you both!" I try and storm out but five words catch me.

"Are we still dating, Flo?"

"What the fuck?! No!" I shout before storming downstairs, tears falling down my cheeks. I feel sort of like a waterfall.

When I reach my house, which only took ten seconds to reach - I pull out my phone only to see like a billion messages from Mindi and Lauren. One of them must've created a group chat.

M - Flo.

L - Flo please.

M - You can't not talk to us forever.

Yes I can and I will.

M - FLO ALIX CLIFFORD IF YOU DON'T ANSWER, I WILL COME OVER THERE AND GET YOU.

L - Or I will.

M - Lauren, this is all my fault. I'm sorry. I shouldn't of asked you out.

L - Mindi, I shouldn't of said yes.

M - Fuck.

L - Language!

M - Please, just let me swear out my feelings.

L - ...Fine.

M - FLO. LAUREN FUCKING LOVES YOU, OKAY?! AND I'M SORRY I MESSED YOUR SHIT UP BUT LIKE PLEASE COME OVER. SHE'S BAWLING HER EYES OUT AND SHE LOVES YOU. SHE STARTED SOBBING AS SOON AS YOU LEFT AND IF I LEFT, SHE WOULDN'T CRY SO YOU BETTER GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE BEFORE SHE DIES OF CRYING HER EYES OUT. 

Is that even possible? Is it possible to die because you're crying so much? 

M - I mean, it is possible for you to die because your heart is broken so like just get over here...Please. She needs you. She doesn't need me. I know she doesn't. She needs you, Flo. 

F - Fuck. Off.

M - You're a horrible person, Flo. Your girlfriend is sobbing on her bedroom floor, now unable to move and you're telling me to 'fuck off'? You're a bitch.

F - You're the one who was making out with MY girlfriend. 

M - Ex*.

F - She was my girlfriend when you were dating her. And you think Lauren's heart is broken? My best friend and my NOW ex girlfriend were making out on her bed! So just...Leave me alone. If she really loves me she wouldn't of started dating you.

M - Flo, just listen to me okay?

F - I don't want to.

I then turn my phone off and throw it on my bed. I don't think I ever want to love again.
