The Griers

Chapter 20

1 week later.
I finally got over the fact that we didn't make it. Nash and hayes came home yesterday.

Life's just back to normal. I guess
I miss everyone a lot.

Im sitting at the kitchen table eating some cereal.

"Hello" i hear skylnn come down the stairs

"Hi" i wave at her.

"Can you pour me cereal" she asks me sitting down.

"Sure" i get her a bowl and pour her cereal.

"Can we do something fun today" she asks me.

"Sure want to go to the beach" i ask her

"Yes" she nods smiling

I finish eating and go up stairs

"Oh hey" hayes noticed me leaving his
Room.

"Hey want to come to the beach" i ask him

"Sure" he leaves.

We have like a 4 hour drive to the beach but whatever.

"Lauren" my mom yells

"What" i yell back following her voice

"You cant go to the beach" she tells me.

"Why!?" I yell asking.

"Because I have a surprise for you" i groan leaving her room telling sky and hayes.

I went into my room slamming the door shut making a point.

I keep getting treated like a little kid.

Yes i didnt make it. just stop treating me like you want me to be better.
And feeling bad im fine

"Whats with you slamming doors" nash
walks into my room.

I roll my eyes at him.

"Im sorry" he looks at me

"You know what im leaving" i huff

grabbing my car keys and driving. i decided to go the mall.

I walk in shopping a bit getting my mind of things.

"Lauren?" I hear a familiar voice.
I turn

"Matt?" "Matt!" I smile running over and hugging him.

"What are you doing here?" I ask him.

"Well we came for a surprise but i ditched everyone to shop soo shhh" i laugh.

"Aww i missed all you boys" i hug him agian.

"Yeah i didn't get to say goodbye to my bestie" he pouts

"Im sorry matty" i play with his cheeks.

"Well wanna shop with me?" i ask him

"Yas" we walked around the mall togther.

"This beanie or this one" matt asks.

"I like the gray one" i point to it.

"Thanks girl" he high fives me.

He pays and we walk out.

"I just got a text we should come back
to your house" he notifies me

"Interesting" i smirk.

We head out.

"Did you take a taxi?" I ask him

"Yeah" he nodded we climb in my car and drove back home.

We walked up on my stoop and unlock the door to see all the guys (which i already new)

"Hey guys" i hug all them.

"So you went shopping with matt?" Hayes asks

"Uh yeah" i answer him.

"Hello beautiful" shawn comes over to me.

"Hi" i giggle kissing him.

"There all sleeping over" my mom yells from the kitchen.

I get up slightly pissed walking towards my kitchen

"Mom" i speak

"What" she asks

"Is this some type of way for me to just forget and be a all happy agian! Stop treating me like that. im 18 years old leave me alone im glad there here i just hate the fact that you got them all to come to make me "feel" better!" I say to her

"Lauren i just worry about you" she sighs

"Well stop worrying" i snap leaving the kitchen.

"Lauren" she yells mad while i leave.

I enter the living room and everyone looks at me.

"What you say to her" nash glares at me.

"Nothing" i huff.

"Wheres shawn" i ask realizing he's not here

" He said he had to go out some where" cameron tells me.

"Okay" i shrug.
