Camila's Pov

My eyes roamed around Lauren's room, seeing glass and picture frames all over the floor. Lauren was lying on the ground, her breathing heavy, with her knees up to her face and her hair scrambled all over the place.

"Lauren?" I asked, quickly rushing to my friend's side, whilst trying not to trip on all the papers that were ripped and shredded on the ground.

She looked up at me.

Her face had scratch marks all over it, and she was all red. She was hysterically crying.

I bent down, and attacked her into a hug.

I could tell that she needed a friend, someone to be there for her and right now, I'm that person.

"Lauren?" I called out to her softly, my arms were still wrapped around her small torso while my chin was rested on the bridge of her neck.

Lauren sniffed and nuzzled her face into my neck.

"C-Camz." She stuttered, still crying.

I looked at her, my eyes were now watery, too. It breaks my heart to see my best friend, no sister, like this.

"Who did this to you, Lo?" I asked her, overly concerned.

A bitch is about to get slapped.

Lauren shook her head, and pushed her head into her lap, unexposing her face.

"Lo, please talk to me." I begged, my arms were still wrapped around her now, fragile body.

Sometimes, people let their guard down. A forcefield is surrounded around them, like a barrier and they keep their emotions in. Not letting anyone know, how they really feel. They're kind of like a hermit crab. They hide. They cover. They're scared. They run away from a problem. Lauren, is one of those people. But sometimes, hermit crabs reveal themselves. They get out of their shell, and see the outside world. But all things come to an end. They end up finding a new shell. Then they hide again. Lauren, pretends to be strong. She acts like she dosen't care, about the haters. She acts like she dosen't have any mutual emotions. But in the inside, it's eating her up. In the inside, she's hurting. When people do/say cruel stuff, it hurts people's feelings. It kills them.

Lauren looked up, coming out of her shell.

"I have no one." She replied to me, with such sorrow in her eyes.

Her face was full of emotion. Not love, but not hatred either. In her eyes, were a look of desperation. She was desperate for someone to actually care and love her.

I shook my head.

"You have me. You have the girls. You have your family." I said, using my thumb to wipe away her salty tears.

"Y-you don't understand, Camz." She said, looking away and denying my contact with her. "Liam broke up with me... because he was seeing someone else."

I stared at her, in disbelief.

"That's bullshit." I said, shocked.

She shook her head.

"No." She said, with so much sadness. "He's been seeing Sophia."

I bit my lip, and shook my head.

How could Liam do such a thing?

I thought that he was different.

I thought that he loved Lauren.
