Lauren's P.O.V.

When Keaton asked to talk to me, I can tell Camz was nervous, and a little bit jealous. She didn't have to tell me anything, because the look in her eyes, gave it all away. I actually like this side of her, it reminds me that she really does care about me. Plus, she looks adorable and cute when she's all jealous. Jealousy is an ugly trait, but not on her. One thing for sure is that she's the only one that has my heart, and nothing is going to change that, especially not Keaton. I look back at Camz and give her a light nod, signaling it was okay. I watched her walk away to our bedroom, and then I turn around to focus my eyes back up at Keaton. After what happened this morning, I have to admit, I am a litle nervous talking to him.

"So... what's up?" I ask Keaton.

"We... two things... I uh... I just wanted to apologize for not getting back to you this morning." He says.

"Oh no... it's fine.. I wouldn't want to talk to me either.. I'd hate me too--" I say but get interupted by him.

"No, Lauren... I could never hate you... in fact... I really like you... I was just... I don't know.. maybe you and I could give this one more shot?" He asks with sad eyes while scratching the back of his neck. I had a feeling he was going to ask me out again, but of course, I don't want to, especially now that I'm with Camz. Wasn't letting him down this morning enough? Why is he making this more difficult than it has to be.

"Keaton... I'm sorry... I'm with someone.." I tell him. His eyes widened at what I had just said. I can see the anger starting to rise and build up inside of him, but then again, who could really blame him. I'd be more than upset with myself right now.

"All this time.. you've been with someone else?!" He raises his voice at me. I jump back a little at him raising his voice. 

"No... I ... just--" I begin to defend myself, but once again, get cut off by Keaton.

"Just what?!" He raises his voice at me again. "Used me? Just tell me the truth, were you ever even interested in me?" He asks. I can't even look him in the eyes to tell him the truth. I'm also afraid of what his reaction will be once I tell him. Keaton raising his voice at me was bad enough, I didn't need him to start raging even more.

"Okay Keaton.. I'm sorry--" I start to tell him.

"Wow... you can't even tell me the truth.. who is he? You at least owe me that." He asks in a demanding tone. I finally look up at him in utter shock, suprised at what he just said to me.

"I owe you.. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING." I say bravely, turning on my heels and walk away.

Keaton's P.O.V.

I pulled Lauren to the side to ask her out again, since we got interupted on our date with Camila being in the hospital. Not only this, but I also wanted to tell her what really happened with Camila. Although Wesley is my brother, she had a right to know, they all had a right to know. 

After she walks away, leaving me in the hallway, I can't help but feel anger inside of my body. I was ready to give up the girl I had back home for Lauren. There was something about Lauren, that drew me to her, and I can't resist her, but at the moment, I felt nothing but anger towards her. 

I still can't believe she had feelings for someone else all this time. Don't get me wrong, I shouldn't be one to talk, but still, I was ready to break someone else's heart for hers. Now that she pulled this little stunt on me, I'm going to find out who this other person is. Maybe it's a bit extreme but, I just want to know what makes this other person more special than me. One way or another, I'm going to get Lauren back. Although I want to be able to call Lauren mine, I can't help but be so filled with anger. Actually, I'm beyond angry with her, I'm furious. It hurts, to be hurt by someone you care about, and I'm not liking this one bit.
