Chapter 53:

Lauren's pov:

"Have you been to the consol energy arena before?" Ariana asked as we walked towards the helicopter.
" umm I think, when I was younger, my dad took me, but it was the old arena not the new one." I said getting seated and putting the head gear on.
" well it's great, and you get front row seats with me."
" I'm excited!"

Jason's pov:
After they left Alfredo and I talked for a while with Ana.
" so do you think that they will be there tomorrow?"
" yeah, we should be good, we just have to leave the house by 6 or we are going to be late and fuck shit up." I said as Vegas came up and laid by my feet.
" well I'll let you two have some alone time, goodnight." I walked to the kitchen and cleaned up whatever I could. I hated cleaning but I hated a messy house and Ariana, Jess, and Lauren aren't here so I'm stuck doing it.

It's been probably two hours before I finished and the game had to start maybe 45 minutes ago. I hope Lauren is having fun, im not worried about her because she is strong and won't let anyone touch her. But then she is so innocent, it's going to bother me. Until she gets home I won't be able to sleep. But I have nothing to do...
I went over and laid on the bed. It was quiet and peaceful but I still needed to stay up and wait for Lauren.
" shit!" I sprang up and vegas jumped up too.
I ran downstairs and outside.
It's freezing outside and I have no shoes on but I have to get the box of envelopes in the car Lauren grabbed earlier.
Her mom told me to not let her see these until Paul was not able to find her or she couldn't find him, she said that she wrote very "powerful" letters to Lauren everyday when she found out about her cancer. She said she wrote about conversations she heard Paul and jake having and she wrote about her cancer and Lauren's father so she wants me to keep them away from her.
I brought them up to Lauren's room which she hasn't been in forever, and put it in the closet. She will never look in there.
~ hour later~
Games are not usually this fucking long, where the hell are they?
I dialed Lauren's number but she didn't answer.
I threw my phone on my bed and laid down with Vegas again.
" you think she is okay bud?" I asked Vegas, he gave me a confused look.
" I'll take that as a yes."  He licked my face and then put his head down.
~ 30 minutes passed~
My eyes were getting so heavy, i was just... About... To... Fall... Asleep.. Until.... DING!
My phone started ringing and it was Lauren,
" hello?!" I answered quickly.
" hey babe." He voice sounded like she just woke up.
" are you okay?"
" mhm I just sorta banged my he...ad up a bit.. But. I think I'll be okay." She sounded confused.
" are you with Ariana?"
" she's driving, we are almost home." Lauren said.
" okay, babe don't go to sleep, I'll see you soon."
" okay."
" Lauren." I paused.
" hm."
" I love you."
" I. I love you. Too jas" the phone cut off.
" fuck!" Vegas jumped up again,
" sorry bud." I calmed him down then ran downstairs.
Ariana's car pulled up and she got out.
" she's going to be okay." Ariana said getting out.
I ran out without shoes on again, and the snow burned my feet from being so cold but I wanted to make sure Lauren was okay.
" she fell asleep again." Ariana said coming over to the door.
" alright I'll bring her in, what the hell happened this time?" I asked.
" well see it was the flyers and pens and those are rivals and so when the flyers scored this one dude punched another dude and Lauren got pulled into the fight and she was knocked out. Paramedics checked her tho, she doesn't have a concussion it's just dizziness.
" alright let's get inside." I picked Lauren up and Ariana closed the door.
" is Ana still here?" Ari asked as we got inside.
" yeah she's skipping school tomorrow for the mission." I said going over to the couch.
" do you think she's going to be good for tomorrow?" Ariana asked.
" call Jessica just incase she isn't, we can get her in on everything I'll have alex fly over and watch the house." I said pulling my phone out after laying a blanket on Lauren.
" you don't think Ana could do it do you?" Ariana asked as she dialed Jess's number.
" If anything she's going to stay here and watch Lauren. No way I would let her in on a mission this big, I don't trust her enough." I said.
" why don't you trust me enough?" Ana came up from behind me.
" gotta be kidding me." I turned around.
