The end where I begin

Lauren's POV

'New text from Glen: Laur, it's been 2 days, u have to talk to him soon. He's going crazy at us here.' I had been ignoring these texts for days. I knew I had to talk to Danny and get it all sorted.

'Text to Glen: Sorry I've been avoiding this until now. I'll talk to him today, promise!'

'New text from Glen: Good. He'll be happy to hear from u.' This text made me smile. The fact that he wants to keep in contact with me made me smile. I know I'm in a relationship and it's really good, still Danny has been in the back of my mind these past days.

'Lauren, you still here?' Sophie asked.

'Uhm yeah, sorry. I just had to answer this text. I'm here now, what is it?'

'You've seemed a little off these past days, you haven't really talked that much or paid that much attention, is everything alright?' Truth is, I'm not. I have way too much to worry about at the moment. I'm not too sure what I want anymore.

'Yeah, I'm just a bit tired after being a bit sick. I'll be fine soon though, no worries.' Sophie gave me a look saying 'I know you're lying but I'll let it pass for now.'

'Okay...So how's things with Oscar, anything new??' She added with a suggestive wink.

'Sophie. Really. We've been together for one week, it's a bit soon, and I'm not there yet.' Right now I was really not sure he was the one I wanted. Yeah sure he was great and I was in love, but after the thing with Danny now I couldn't help thinking about what Glen said. That he was willing to wait. In fact I had more chemistry with Danny from the moment we met than I had with Oscar, the feelings just popped up sooner, much sooner.

'So what about Danny then?'

'Uhm what about him??' What the hell was she trying to do?

'Lauren. You don't seem so happy right now. You were much happier before, is it because you don't talk anymore?'

'Yeah it is.'

'But why Laurs? You talked so much, and you were really cute together seriously.'

'Well he did something and I don't know why, but it hurt me. And since then I've been like this.' I didn't really want to tell her everything, but at the same time it felt good to just say it and talk about it. It might help me figure out what to do.

'He hurt you? Oh my God what did he do?'

'Relax, he didn't hurt me physically. He would never do that. He was drunk and brought a woman home. In the middle of ''you know'' he, without a purpose, called my cell and I picked it up. I heard what was happening and I hung up. Then I just went crazy jealous and called Glen for help at 3am.'

'Oh God Laurs. Have you talked to him? I'm sure he didn't mean to call you on purpose, he wouldn't do that, he cares so much about you! That's pretty clear.'

'Thanks Soph. I really appreciate this.'

'Call him, seriously. You need to sort this out.' She was right I had to.

'Yeah I know, I'm just not sure what to tell him. I can't just tell him how I feel about this, I sound like a crazy jealous person! I'm in a relationship for God's sake, this is not good!'

'Well do you have feelings for him?! That's the only thing I can think of now that explains why you're acting like this.'

'I...I...I don't know to be honest. I think a part of me does, but the other part of me is scared. And I'm with Oscar, so it's not like I can do anything about it.'
