Lauren's POV

We were recording our podcast series when Lisa openly asked me a question in front of all of my sisters.

"Ladybug, when do you want to tell your lover the truth about you being famous? She will find it out one way or another."

"What if she will leave me for someone else then? What if she will think that I am just using her and manipulating when I am obviously not? What if she will think that I can live just for money? I am just scared."

"But she has to know." Katherine added as well.

"I will let her know, okay? Just let me think about the way how to tell her."

"Okay, the break is over! Now, it's time for Lisa's corner." I was prepared to be bored as heck just listening when I got a reminder. Oh shoot, I forgot about our Christian's group meeting. Honestly, I feel like a sinner but I still go to church because I was raised like that. With love towards God.

"Guys, excuse me for a second. I have to go, please cut!"

"Lauren, where are you going again? We have to continue!" I heard Christina, our leader, yelling at me. I just ignored it and got into my car. To my surprise, Jasmine was already waiting on me.

"How did you know that I am exactly here?"

"I don't know, I was just walking around. But you texted me that you wanted me to wait on you this time, so we can meet our group. I don't know on what are you working with your family here."

"I can't tell you now, it's a secret. Please, understand me. C'mon, let's go." When I felt her hand in mine, my tension from whole day went away.

"Your Tesla is thriving." Jasmine was obviously enjoying my luxurious car.

When we arrived there, I started to feel nervous once again. Jasmine thinks that I am bold but when I have to attend social events with like 50 people, I always start panicking. We entered the room for our meetings and sat down.

"Laur, why are you so quiet? Why you aren't interacting with anyone here?" Jasmine asked me after a few minutes.

"I literally just want this to be over. My social battery is already drained." 

"At least look up and make eye contact, I know you aren't this outgoing type but I don't know you this shy."

"Can we please just leave? I will explain it outside." 

Jasmine's POV

"So, why were you acting like that? Lauren, it's like someone else went into your body."

"I was born like an introvert, I struggled so much socializing when I was young. I was so shy that I had no friends for a pretty long time. If it bothers you, please leave me alone." She put her hood up and opened her trunk.

"Love, I would love you no matter what. No matter who you are. I was just surprised because I have never seen you like that before."

"I am even surprised that I opened up to you, yes, I opened up to you because I fell for you. I can't take it anymore." I tried to comfort her when I saw tears coming out of her eyes.

"Hey baby, it's okay. I think introverts are pretty lit. I am an introvert too, you know that. But see, when we are together we are so loud and crazy. I think introverts are smarter, prettier and softer. I definitely fell for a personality like yours. Lauren, I love you."

"Sure, these are just words. I know, everyone loves me and then at the end, it turns out as a lie. I need to be alone, please." I watched her grabbing her skate out of her car and getting on it. My girlfriend is a skater, that's so damn attractive. I wonder what's going on with her though. I decided to come back home but on the halfway, I was met by Amy.

"Oh hey, Jasmine! Where did you leave Lauren?"

"I don't know Amy, she seemed down, so I let her be alone."

"That's surprising. I can tell she is very happy around you. She wouldn't stop talking about you to me. Tell me, what do you love about Lauren?"

"To be honest? Everything. The way her brown eyes sparkle when she sees me. The way she flips her hair. The little hand dance moves she would do. The way her smile can brighten the entire room. The way she is willing to help everyone. The way how gentle she is with me. The way how she looks like a goddess even without makeup. The way how her crooked fingers fit with mine. The way how amazing cook she is. The way how she cuddles. The way how beautiful her voice sounds for my ears that I could fall asleep to it. The way her brain works."

"Okay, okay, that's enough. Literally just marry her, oh my gosh." Amy's sentence was interrupted by some scream. 

"What was that?" She asked.

"You heard that too? I am going to check the situation." I walked just few meters and I saw the thing which just broke my heart. The love of my life laying on the ground, groaning in pain.

"Laur? What did you do to yourself?"

"I fell off the skate. I think that my leg is broken, I can't move." She kept whining and I just couldn't take it anymore.

"Oh my silly one, we should go to doctors. I will carry you to your car and drive it then, okay?" I picked her up, bridal style.

"I am so sorry, baby. I was acting like a complete idiot and here I am, that's what I get."

"I love you Lauren, it's my turn to take care of you."

"Jasmine, imagine us being married and then carrying me bridal style." I just smiled at how cute she was, even when enduring such a sharp pain.

"Oh my gosh, Lauren! What happened to her?" Amy joined us.

"Come into her car, I think her leg is broken. We are going to see a doctor."

"I really want to marry you babe, please marry me." This caused my skin forming into goosebumps. Just the image of Lauren being my wife was sending shivers down my spine.

"One day, we will get married. I promise that. But now your health is a priority."
