Runaway Love

xiv

Lauren| Back home.

I believe that I was set up so that Cali would want to break up with me. I swear because Jordan came on to me and I didn't even have a chance to explain. Like what kind of BS is that?! If she wanted me out of her life then she should have told me and I would have found my way. I don't stay where I'm not wanted EVER.

I got back to our home as I continued to gather my thoughts.

How the hell did Jordan know where I was?

How do she and Cali know each other?

What did she mean by what she said "Again"?

I started to cry thinking my life was a mess low-key. Just as I start to get myself together I have to deal with this bull. Half of me want to wait until she gets here so that I can explain myself. I deleted Jordan's number and all of her information and messages from my phone each time. I just don't know what the hell I should say. The door begins to open as I walk into the living room displaying Cali with a sleep Jeremiah on her shoulder.

She walked right past me as if I never even existed to her once she returnes I decide to swallow my fears whole.

"Cali I know you're mad at me but I'm sorry for what you saw. I'm sorry that the girl actually felt the need to kiss me and I don't even know her.!" I yell. At this point she is staring at me just listening. "She asked me were you and I dating, I confirmed and then she just kissed me and you walked in. Baby I promise "I pleaded.

I know it seems wrong to lie to her but I need this home I need her and I need to be happy again. She's the only one who cares about me. Hell, Connor has a whole family and I'd look like a dummy for going back to him. Right? She stared at me a few minutes until she finally began to speak.

" Lauren please understand that I'm not a fool. I know when people are lying and I can actually tell when a person is lying based off of their behavior. However, I do believe also in second chances and for you I can grant you that. It's been a rough couple of days and things just don't seem to be working out in our favor babe but please believe it's going to get better okay? From now on we hide nothing and Jordan , is not to be spoken to if seen I'm trusting you so don't fuck It up." She said giving me a stern look.

" Okay baby I'm so sorry it won't ever happen again" I said quickly.

She hugged me and smiled " It better not, now let's go to bed".
