After crying myself to sleep last night, and Kendall not answering her phone after I called her 20 times, my alarm clock finally woke me up. I dreaded going to school. Instead of actually trying today, I just threw on a pair of black leggings, a navy blue shirt that read LOVE, and some blue vans. I threw my hair into a messy bun, avoided putting on makeup, grabbed my bag, and slummed down the stairs.
"I made you toast." Jackson smiled handing me a slice of bread.
"Thanks. Shouldn't I be doing this for you?" I chuckled.
"Nah, it's fine." He shrugged. I quickly ate the toast.
"Come on, we should go." I said before taking my last bite. he nodded and we went out to my car and headed to school.
Once we got there we split up and went our separate ways. I spotted Liam and Kendall together so I decided against going to see them. Instead I walked straight to my first period class. I sat in my usual second row seat and rested my head in my hands. My eyelids kept opening and closing in exhaustion.
"You look like shit." Kendall laughed. I shot my eyes open and glared at her.
"Thanks." I rolled my eyes.
"What the hell is your problem?" she snapped sitting down in her seat as the bell rang.
"Maybe you'd know if you bothered to pick up your phone last night." I snapped causing people to stare at us.
"I was with Liam." She shrugged.
"You're always fucking with him! Did it ever occur to you that I needed my best friend!? While you were snogging your boyfriend, I was balling my eyes out because my parents split up!" I cried.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so sor-" She started
"Save it." I shook my head before walking up to the teacher.
"May I please go to the bathroom?" I asked with tears still in my eyes. He nodded and I rushed out of the room. I didn't even make it to the bathroom before breaking down. I slid my back down the front of a bunch of lockers. I broke down. Kendall was my best friend and she clearly cared more about her boyfriend now more then me.
"Lauren?" I heard a deep husky voice say. I looked up, it was Harry.
"Oh, hi." I wiped the tears away.
"What's wrong?" He asked sliding down next t me.
"Can you just go?" I whispered.
"Just talk to me." He tried.
"M-my parents..." I stuttered. "T-they're splitting up."
"I know how it feels." He comforted.
"That's not even the worst part. My best friend blew me off for her boyfriend." I trembled.
"Well I'm here for you." He pulled me into a hug.
"I'm sorry. I don't know why I just told you that." I said pulling away and standing up.
"I'm gonna go." I stated awkwardly and walked back to class.
*After School*
"Come on Lauren! You have to come!" Niall begged me to go the party tonight.
"I really don't want to face Kendall or Harry right now." I sighed.
"Please!!" He pleaded. I sighed.
"Fine. But you have to pick me up." I laughed.
"Fine with me. I'll pick you up at 7:30. See ya later." Niall chuckled. I hopped into the car and waited for Jackson. He as walking down the path with a girl. He hugged her then jogged to my car.
