"If you heard that Lauren Jauregui falsified a whole movie just to get back at her ex, who just so happens to be the highly awarded director Y/n Y/Ln, you heard right" The TV host says

"Just a week ago a fight in the set on Jauregui's anticipated film, a fight broke lose between Y/Ln and Jauregui's friend and the whole thing was live streamed"

"Our cameras caught up with Jauregui a few days ago and asked her some questions"

Lauren's POV

"MS JAUREGUI! MS JAUREGUI IS IT TRUE, DID Y/N TRY AND KILL YOU 5 YEARS AGO?!" The paparazzi yell

"No she didn't! I lied, leave me alone." I say

"Why did you lie?!" They ask

"Because I'm a fucking idiot" I say

"Do you still love her?!" They ask

"...Why don't you go bother someone else" I say stepping into my car and closing the door

"We also caught up with Y/n"

Y/n's POV

"MS Y/N HAVE YOU SPOKEN TO LAUREN SINCE THE INCIDENT?!" They asks

"I just want to get to my car" I say

"Are you still directing the film?" They ask

"Finger crossed" I say rolling my eyes

"Are you pressing charges against Jackie for that punch?" They ask

"No" I say annoyed

"Why? Are you still in love with Lauren?" They ask

"No" I say after a laugh

Lauren's POV

"So, in light of everything that went down a week ago, I thought that break was needed. I've spoken to the CEO's and they're still interested in making this movie" Ramon says

"Really?" Nicole asks

"Although this may not be a true biopic, it's still an interesting thriller and we've been approved for further funding" Ramon says

"What about Y/n?" I ask

"I've reached out to her several times and she still hasn't returned my calls or texts. But, I'm gonna give her a few more days before we take legal action" he says

"Legal action?" Someone asks

"Yes. Y/Ln signed a contract that obligates her to finish directing this film if funding is still present. Violation of that contraction results in the company having no choice but to press charges against her" he says

"In other words he's gonna sue the girl this fake movie with a psychotic representation of her was written about for not showing up to direct said movie" a producer says

"Guys... it's show business" he says

"Ray I thought you said you'd find a way to relieve her from directing?" I say

"I'm just the reporter Lauren, this issue fell in higher hands and it's out of my control" he says

"I always thought you were an asshole" Jackie says

"Jack?!" I say

"What? I did, his whole physique screams asshole" she says

"Look everyone, filming will resume as usual so, head to hair an make up, I'm gonna try and contact our director again" He says

Y/n's POV

"Do You think they'll actually sue me or?" I say

"Are you really quitting?" Sam asks

"Yeah I think so... I can't show my face there again" I say

"Why not? Lauren's the one who lied" Noah says

"Yeah but it'll be so awkward" I say. "And I hate feeling awkward"

"I know but if you don't go she wins" Noah says

"Wins what?" Sam says. "She feels like shit about what happened"

"You mean what she made happen?" I say

"I'm not defending her I'm just trying to stay in the middle here" he says

"Dude there is no middle, the truth always comes out one way or another and Lauren could have ruined her career" Noah says

"And I'm mad about it but, she's my friend too" Sam says. "Y/nn I know you don't want to and I know your rich af now but you're not rich enough to survive a lawsuit like this, Ramon's relentless"

"I know" I say putting my head in my hands

"Answer his calls before they become Lawyer calls" he says

"I hate her for putting me in this spot" I say

"Don't say that" Sam says

"Fine I don't hate. I just hate what she did to me" I say

"No say it. I hate her too" Noah says angering Sam

"No Noah just-" I start

"No!" He yells. "If you never said yes to this movie you wouldn't be in this position and who could've stopped you from saying yes to this movie? Oh that's right Sam." He says

"Dude I'm-" Sam starts

"No! Everything leads back to you. You could've told her he truth but you choose not to. You choose Lauren over Y/n yet again. Some friend you are" He says

"I know I fucked up, I thought I was doing the right thing" he says

"Guys just calm down!" I say. "I'm gonna go talk to Ramon and see if he'll let me leave ok?"

"Yeah great" Sam says

"Ok cool" Noah says
