When Lauren reached the door of the classroom she took a deep breath before pulling down the handle, she scanned the room to see how many people were already here, there was at least half the class already seated and unpacking their books. Lauren walked over to her seat that was at the back of the room, and sat down with a sigh and followed on with the other students by unpacking her equipment.
About 5 minutes later, the teacher had walked in ready to start her lesson. "okay, class, im gonna start the registration now so i appreciate it if you all just-" she was interrupted by a loud opening of a door, several faces turned to see who had came in throughout the silence of the students. Camila stood there in tight black jeans and a red t shirt with Miami printed across it with some black trainers. Lauren watched her whilst she walked to her seat, mind racing with emotions. "Ah Camila, youre late. Take a seat." Ms.Baker told her. Camila paused for a second and slightly tilted her head to look at The teacher. She then sighed and continued to walk to her seat. Lauren stared over blanking out everything else around her other than Camila. i really want to speak to her, maybe if i can catch her outside i can at least TRY, i have to... ive liked her for so long, or im just gonna sit here in desire and do nothing about it, no i cant do that... Every thought and every emotion was spiraling in her head like a song on repeat. "Lauren, dear, could you please grab the books from the bottom shelf near Ryans table please?" Lauren immediately did what was said, having a chance to stop the thoughts, she looked over near the books, the shelf directly near Camila. Woow coincidence much. Lauren thought, and slowly wondered over to where the books were sitting. She bent down and leaned over to grab the books that looked as if they hadnt been moved in awhile. well these are old-"Woah-ho-holy shit!" Lauren screamed and darted backwards, slamming her back into Camilas table tumbling into camilas equipment on the table. "oh my-lauren are you okay!?" called one of her friends from across the classroom. Just as that was said a prodigious spider scattered straight into the middle of the classroom making various students scream and some laugh. But what lauren didnt notice is that Camila had gripped onto her wrist harder than expected. Lauren looked straight into Camilas chocolate brown eyes that had a daunting glare but lauren couldnt bring herself to look out of them, they locked eyes for a few seconds until Camila stood up and headed towards the door out of the classroom. "Okay Class, settle down, its been taken care o-Camila where are you going?" The teacher spoke. But Camila kept walking as if the teacher hadnt said a word. "I..er.. i think she said she needed some air she didnt feel too good" Lauren Lied, backing camila up. "Oh, alright, i cant believe she spoke to anybody, she doesnt usually speak to me at least.." Ms Baker vocalised, "that's cause your a teacher, duh" an ignorant student called out. As Lauren went back to her seat still thinking of the burning but..loving.. sensation she got out of camilas tight hold. Lauren circled her wrist with her other hand a few times before smiling slightly to herself. But the smile quickly turned to a frown when she remembered camila walked out after she had slammed into the table on accident. The last few lessons until lunch break, bored Lauren as she sat watching the clock countdown every minute, just as the bell went she jumped out her seat and ran towards the cafeteria, knowing thats where Dinah and Ally will be, she spotted dinah at the pasta queue, noticing she must have been let out early, Ally wasnt there yet, She must still be walking up from her previous lesson. "oh hey girl." Dinah said as she wrapped her arm around Laurens neck. "Hi." was all she responded. Just then Ally came running through the door saying something about a fight. "OH MY YES ALLY" Dinah beamed, other students in the cafeteria must have over heard and went running out after ally to find 2 of the football players pushing eachother about but nothing serious,yet. Ally pushed her way through the herd of school kids and tried to split up the fight "Woah boys, you both need Allysus right now" Ally yelled between the two guys. "move, bitch" one of the lads pushed her out the way and everyone started rasing their voices toward him for laying his hands on a girl. Lauren felt anger rising inside her because of her friend getting pushed but as she went to push forward to lunge at him DJ grabbed her arm "lauren, dont get involved, we dont need the drama" Dinah was right. They didnt but lauren wasnt one to let people hurt her friends but as Ally seemed to be fine, and had piped up herself, she let it slip. The boy who hadnt touched ally swung a solid punch to the other guys jaw and before He could hit back, he kicked him straight in between the ribs, winding him and knocking him flat. Multiple people were screaming and laughing. Until 2 teachers were rushed to stop the chaos . But it was too late, the one jock and audience had run off, the other player still laying on the floor with blood in the corner of his lip.
As Lunch and last period finished, Lauren was supposed to be going to Dinahs house after school but it completely crossed her mind all she wanted was to get home and relax.
She pulled up outside of her house and turned off the engine sighing. She reached for her phone and saw she had 5 new messages and 1 missed call from her best friend.
Dinah-Hoe where are you?
Dinah-Dude
Dinah-Youve seriously gone without me?
Dinah-ughhh did you forget Dinah- Love you too lo x
Lauren smacked her face in shame for forgetting, she quickly typed a reply before heading into her house
Lauren- Oops sorry DJ, ill see you tomorrow! x
Lauren got an instant reply but didnt see it until she was inside her house.
Dinah-Not that fast, im coming over, somethings clearly bothering you, cya loz! x
She was right. Lauren had so much on her mind that she couldn't put into words. She ignored her friends message because even if she said no she knew she would come over anyways, part of lauren wanted to let things out but another part of her was too scared.. even if Dinah was her best friend.
Around 10 minutes later the door went, she ran down the stairs and opened the door to receive a smiling dinah in front of her, she was holding up champagne and a box of chocolates, her car went off behind her revealing Ally walking up her drive with another bottle of alcohol this time it being EchoFalls Wine. Lauren squealed and clapped her hands together in excitement. "See Ally, it's not too much if it's lauren" Dinah laughed looking into Laurens Questioning eyes. "Damn.. i lost the bet" Ally muttered. "Come on girls! youre lucky my mum and dad are out for the night" Lauren said happily. The Three Girls sped up the stairs into the green eyed girls room. "Sooo lauren." dinah started. "are you going to explain whats in your mind? or do we have to make you?" The two other adolescents chuckled at dinahs words. "i..cant really..explain, its all too much" Lauren mumbled, tears somehow starting to make their way into her eyes. "Pfft if i must" dinah popped open the champagne bottle and grabbed three glasses from her handbag and 12 shot glasses. "now what the hells all this" Lauren half shouted. "told you we went all out.." ally whispered. "give me that" lauren snatched the bottle from Dinahs hands and drank at least 5 big gulps of the drink, squinting her eyes afterwards. "im in charge of the music!" ally screamed excitedly. Dinah Lines up three rows of 4 shot glasses filled with champagne. "girls! lets do this." dinah screamed and the two girls ran over. "ready..3" Dinah started. "2" Ally continued. "1!" Lauren finished. The teens knocking back each shot as quick as they could. "WOOO!" dinah shouted dancing her fingers up and down in the air. After 20 minutes of non-stop drinking Lauren was totally out of it. "cause shes the baddest from time!" ally screamed singing. " oh my!!" dinah continued "should have seen the way that ting, just walked by!" Lauren shouted after. "OH MY" The three teens shouted together, laughing uncontrollably. After the laughter and screams died down, Dinah sat next to lauren on the bed, looking deep into her eyes. "Lauren sweetie" "Yeah?" "i want you to tell me what youre feeling, i can usually read you like a book, but you seem so distant." dinah said with a tear in her eye, obviously becoming an emotional drunk towards her friend. "I.. Camila" lauren started "she touched my wrist earlier, it felt so.. good Dinah, when i see her i suddenly feel so safe.. i banged into her table earlier, after seeing a hugeeee spider like im not joking, it was so big! But.. camila... god.. i think... i love her" Laurens hand flew to her mouth whilst ally and dinah gasped loud with wide eyes. "i didn't mean that guys, its just the drink.. talking." lauren laughed pushing the embarrassment away "they say a drunk mans words are a sober mans thoughts" dinah stated jaw still slightly open. "Well! im not a man so they take that shit somewhere else!" lauren jumps up almost falling flat on her face, she tries walking to the wardrobe to grab something but loses her footing and falls down hitting her head off the floor. "Oops" ally laughed. Dinah ran to her friend who had crashed to the ground. "ca..camila.." lauren started saying reaching her hands out, vision extremely blury, "ermm no its me dinah, yeah hello" "dinah..? im so confused..." Laurens body turned motionless, showing that she had became unconscious. "damn it... shes passed out" dinah said to ally and they both picked Lauren up and placed her on the bed almost falling over themselves. "Sorry to let you know Dj, but youre on your own with looking after her, I've gotta run, its late and i have to be back in 10" Ally announced apologizing. "its okay, see you tomorrow" they both hugged and ally placed a kiss to laurens head. After Ally had left Dinah layed next to lauren and placed a damp towel to her head. "Good luck Tomorrow Loz... its gonna be a long day."
