Peter sighed looking at the amount of work he had to attend to he turned on his computer and began to type his essay when the door opened, Peter turned and smiled upon seeing Lauren walk over to him "Hello" she smiled kissing his neck "And where did you get to?" he asked turning to face her "I got bored so I just went out for a bit" she smiled. Peter and Lauren had moved into an apartment near the college Peter was now attending, Lauren was supposed to be in the course too but because she never showed up she left "Well it would help if you actually did something to fill your day" he smiled "I'm going out tonight" she replied "I meant during the day" he answered "I like waiting for you so I can do this when you come home" she smiled grabbing the strings from his hoodie and pulling him on to the bed and on top of her she began to kiss him "Come out with me tonight" she smiled in between kisses "I can't I have to study" Lauren pushed him off her "You sound like Abi you know that?" she yelled climbing off the bed "Come on babe, you know I have an exam next week" he replied sitting on the bed "Everytime I ask you, you make up an excuse" she replied sadly "I promise , the next time you ask me, I will" he smiled kissing her "Well if you'll excuse me I have to get ready to have fun" she replied walking into the bathroom. A while later Lauren returned Peter smiled "You look great" Lauren nodded "I would look even better if you were with me...come on everyone except Whitney thinks I made you up" Peter stood up "Next time I promise" he kissed her and opened the door for her "Enjoy" he smiled "I would say the same back but I know you won't enjoy studying" she replied "Yeah you're right" he waved lightly and closed the door after her.
Three hours passed and Peter was getting tired he sighed and stood up to make some coffee to keep him awake, as he entered the kitchen there was a knock at the door he smiled thinking it was Lauren and opened the door "Hey" Peter stared and smiled "Joey!?" he exclaimed "What are you doing here?" he continued "I start here next Monday so I made sure they put me in a room with you" he smiled "Wait a room? You're staying here? I-in this apartment?" he asked "Yeah! We've been best mates for years! Why? Don't you want me here?" he asked, Peter stared "Oh yeah of course I do! It's just we're kind of full up here" he answered "There's no one else here" he answered raising an eyebrow "Yeah well my roommate is kind of out" Peter explained "You don't want to let me in because of your roommate?" he asked "No definitely not, it's just we've both got the exam..." he lied "Come on I won't make too much noise" he smiled and walked inside he placed his bags on Lauren's bed, Peter stared at the bed then back to Joey "Oh is this bed yours?" he asked "No but-" Joey walked towards him "Hold that thought how about I get us some celebratory beers?" he grinned "I'm sorry mate i have an exam next week, I have to study" Joey smiled "You deserve a break, i'll be back in a while" Joey smiled and walked out the door, Peter smiled politely at him and sighed when he left, he sat back down and placed his head on the keyboard this whole thing was going to be a mess and he knew it.
Joey walked down the road to the nearest shop that sold alcohol he put his hands in his jacket pocket and walked a little faster he was in a daze when he hit off someone. "Oh sorry" he apologised "Oi watch it!" Joey turned "I already said sorry" he answered "Yeah well if you watched where you were going you wouldn't have to apologise" Joey scoffed "You're in a right state aren't you?" Lauren stared "That's none of your business!" she yelled "It's not i don't care if a stupid tart wants to drink her life away on a Monday night, however I am speaking to you because you yelled at me love" he replied sternly "I am not a tart, I happen to have a boyfriend who loves me dearly!" she yelled "Must be some bloke to shack up with you" she walked towards him and slapped him "Don't you dare talk to me like that!" she snapped "Well my love I won't talk about you or to you because this shall be our last encounter" he smiled walking off "Good riddance!" she yelled after him.
Joey walked back to the apartment he just couldn't get that rude girl out of his head, he smiled nearing the door and put the bag down he took out his key and opened the door "Pete you will never believe what happened to me" he began picking up the bag and walking in "Some drunk tart in a skirt yells at me and then slaps me!" he replied closing the door behind him. Joey stared at Peter "You okay mate?" he asked he noticed Peter eye the bed beside him Joey followed his eyes and sighed "Why did you let her in here?" he asked walking into the kitchen "Joey this is Lauren...my girlfriend" Joey stared at Peter and then at Lauren. This whole situation just got really really awkward
