The rose killer

Lauren's pov

When I got home yesterday my parents were shocked at my face, they got angry when I told them what happened, not the fact that there was a pedophile talking to Sofia and her friend but the fact I beat him up.

It's a new day and I've got a bruised face, my lip was spilt open and I have a cut on my cheek and a black eye. I got dressed, I was in blue skinny jeans and a white t-shirt I had converse on and a red and black flannel.

I go downstairs and they all look at my outfit

"Did you run out of black clothes or something?" Taylor asked, i shook my head

"No" I say, she nods

"Colourful today Lauren" dad said when he came down, i shrug

"I guess" I say, I make some toast and coffee and then go to school

On the way I saw camila walking and run to her

"Hey" I say and wrap my arm around her shoulder, she smiles wide and holds the hand on her shoulder

"Hey...is that my flannel?" She asked, I nod

"Yep" I say, she smiles

"Cute" she said, i shrug

"You're cute" I say, she smiles

"Are you flirting with me Lauren?" She asked, I grab my phone

"Look, the guy was put on the news" I say, she nods softly

"I was scared by the way you were acting, you almost killed him" Camila said, I sigh

"I never almost killed him" I say, camila looks at me

"You we're strangling him Lauren, if my dad didn't pull you off he would of passed out and probably died and the police were on their way" she said, i shrug.

"Would it of really mattered? He was a creep" I say, she stops is from walking, she goes in front of me and puts her hands on my stomach.

"I was worried about you not him, I couldn't care less about him he deserves everything you did to him, if the police had come and you were there with him passed out or dead, you would of went to prison" Camila said, I look down.

"I didn't mean to scare you" I say, she nods

"I know you didn't, I know you probably didn't mean to even strangle him...I know that the person who you were showing yesterday wasn't you" Camila said, I look at her.

"He deserved it" I say, she nods

"I know, he deserved for you to kill him but you didn't deserve the out come" she said and touches my face, and runs her thumb over the cuts and bruises.

"Umm, we should get to school" i whisper, camila nods softly and takes my hand and we walk there.

Why is my heart racing?

We get to school and everyone was looking at me, the guy wasn't the only one on the news, the whole fight video was everywhere.

"Hey Lauren" Harry said

"Hi" I say, he looks at my clothes

"I know" I say, he frowns

"What do you know?" He asked

"That the fight was on the news" I say, he nods

"Oh yeh, it was, who's clothes are you wearing?" He asked

"Oh, mine, well camilas flannel but everything else is mine" I say, he frowns

"You own blue jeans?" He asked, I nod
