             Chapter 24
          *Laura's POV*

While I was driving to school, well let's say more like speeding to school, something hit me in the brain. The fact that Ross had kissed me for the third time in my life.In each of the kisses there has always been sparks. And yet, im here doubting about my love for him. The main thing is that Ross basically cheated on Samantha. As soon as i remembred that he was still dating Samantha, i literally freaked out. How could i let it come to this!? When Samantha finds out about this, im gonna be dead. Literally. There has also left another thing that's been bothering me. Where does this third kiss leave me and Ross? Are we still just friends? Is he even gonna break up with Samantha? Nah, i doubt that he would even do that just for me. 

"Well, welcome Ms. Marano. Great timing by the way. Haven't you notice that you came almost half the class late?" Ms. Zebra said while she was filling a detention slip. Great. I got a freaking detention. 

"Yes. I did notice. And im sorry for trying to come late to your stupid class." I said walking to my seat.

"Where do you think your going missy? What you just said is a total insult. Your lucky I'm not sending you to the principal's office. Now, come get your detention." She's right. I am lucky cause she always always sends students to the front office for a small tiny thing. And now that she mentioned the class, I now feel all eyes on me. 

For the rest school hours, I just kept thinking about him all the time. I just wanted to break my head on the wall at times.

Now, I'm walking to my locker and putting my books away. From far away I saw Ross and Samantha hugging. That just made me feel a huge burn on my left chest. I couldn't look at that simple hug without wishing I was dead. I turned around and put my stuff in the locker and left to my car. What is life? 

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

I slip my house key in the little door knob. I open the door and Vanessa is sitting in the couch watching tv. 

"Hey, Vanessa." 

"Hey, Laura. What's wrong? You look a little glum." I threw my backpack to the side and layed on the sofa across Vanessa while putting my hands laying on my stomach and looking at the ceiling.

"I really don't understand my life." I spoke to Vanessa. Staying in the same position I was.

"Well, first of all who is this about?"

"It's.......Ross." The look on Vanessa's face looked disappointed. She knew how many times I've gotten heart broken by him cause I always went to her when I was having boy problems. I knew very well that Vanessa was starting to loose the trust she had on Ross.

"Ok. Would you like to tell me about it?" This time I sat up and faced her. I looked down at the shiny floor. Took a big sigh and started with the story.

***************

"And.....well, I really don't know what to do! I know Samantha will be devastated if she finds out. She'll really hate my guts." I told Vanessa while running my hands through my face.

"First of all, you should speak to Ross and ask him where does this leave you two. Second, you should really find a way to tell Samantha. Because remember this: Every little secret has to come out to the light some time. It can be sooner or later. You never know."

"But, Vanessa! What if he says that we are still friends!? I'm in LOVE with Ross! I can't even watch a simple hug between him and Samantha without me having to feel a burning sensation!" I screamed while throwing my hands in the air.

"Calm down." Vanessa said while putting a hand on my knee. "Go talk with Ross. Or I'll bring him here and do it the hard way. You decide."

I stood up and let out a big sigh that I've been keeping inside for a while.

"I'll go talk with him."  And out the door I went.

.....................

"Hey, um Rocky, is Ross at home." Hopefully he's not.

"Yeah, he is. Come on in, buttercup." Rocky always calls me that. Its his special nickname for me. I went inside like he told me to do.

"Ross!! Buttercup is here!! She came to see you!!" Rocky screamed to Ross from downstairs.

Then Rydel came in. "OMG! Princess Laura is here!?" She calls me that also cause when we were a little bit more younger we would play princesses for some unknown reason. so she calls me princess Laura and I call her highness Rydel.

"Come give a hug to the princess Laura." I said spreading out my hands. I know, we act childish. She ran to me and we hugged.

"Where is everyone else?" I asked.

"Oh! My parents went on a date together. Riker and Ratliff went to the movies. And obviously, Ryland is with Ashley somewhere I don't know."

"Highness Rydel, you are full of information today." She flipped her blond, with pink stripes hair.

"The thing is, you know, I'm the highness here so they tell me everywhere they go." She said acting all girly. Rydel can be a tomboy sometimes. Which is actually weird because she sometimes uses her brothers' clothes.

"Hey, sunshine." Ok, I haven't heard that nickname for me in a while. Eversince I dated  Elliot noone has called me sunshine. That was Ross' nickname for me. And he hasn't been using it in a while. I looked up to the stairs and there he was. Walking down the stairs slowly, like he was doing a perfect show. I felt my time slow down drastically at the moment.

"Hi, Ross" Just so you know, I do have a nickname for him. I just don't feel like its the right moment for using it right now.

"What's up?"

"Oh, um I just wanted to talk to you. If you don't mind."  If you don't mind? Even though he does mind ima still talk to him about this.

His face expression said it all. "Uh .... sure let go to my room." He lead me the way to his room. Its not like I'm new in this house.

**********

"So, what's wrong sunshine?" He said sitting down on his spinning chair. I stood there awkwardly.

"I wanna talk about earlier." He shifted on his chair. Blank expression.

"Alright. Sit there. Your not gonna stand there the whole time." He motioned me to his bed. I sat there.

"Look, Ross. What happened earlier has a consequence. "
