Chapter 1
A few days following her breakup, Laura decided to take Spencer out for lunch at Charlie's Pub. She's been sitting at home wallowing over the dissolution of her marriage. She thought it was time to get up and out and try to start living again. Her eyes were still puffy from crying and her hair was a mess, but she knew she had to move on for Spencer's sake. Spencer opened the door to Charlie's Pub for Laura and they walked in but halted after two steps. There they were. "Kevin" and Ava practically necking at the bar. Laura was about to run and bolt out the door, but Spencer running over to Ava and "Kevin" stopped her get-a-way.
"How dare you?!", exclaimed Spencer.
"Kevin" replied with indignation in his tone, "How dare I what, Spencer?"
"Literally five days after you broke my poor grandmother's heart you are out here with this heartless wench displaying your relationship for all to see."
Ava remained silent, but scoffed at Spencer naming her a heartless wench. "Kevin" responded, "Your grandmother and I broke up, Spencer. I had to move on sometime."
"Five days later is what you call sometime? You know what, Kevin. I was right all along about you. You were always going to break my grandmother's heart. I gave you a hard time at the beginning because my grandmother deserves the world. No, the whole universe. But you were so nice, kind, and caring. Not only with her, but with me after my father died. But I see you never really did care because if you did. You wouldn't have treated her like garbage," Spencer said with affirmation in his voice.
Laura walked over and asked, "Really, Kevin? Not even a week after you asked for a separation, not a divorce, you are out here with another woman? I don't understand."
"It just wasn't working out for us, Laura. You were away too long. The spark died," replied "Kevin".
Laura rolled her eyes in disbelief. "So, you moved out. Where are you staying?"
"Ava's," replied "Kevin".
Laura's jaw dropped and she scoffed. "Ava's? Really? Well, I see how this is going. So, here," Laura paused to take off her rings. "Take these. They mean nothing to me since they clearly mean nothing to you."
"Laura, I –", Ava tried to speak.
Laura held up her hand. "Just shut up, you bitch. You hate your own daughter for taking your man, but you do it too. Wow, you hold such double standards. Kevin, have a nice life with your whore here. When she dumps you after stealing one of her daughter's younger boyfriends, don't call me up. You will be hearing from my attorney tomorrow. Let's go Spencer."
Spencer replied, "Gladly, Grandmother."
After Laura and Spencer arrived home, she sent Spencer upstairs to play video games because she wanted "alone time". But really, all Laura wanted was to sob. Once she heard Spencer's door close, she broke down in full sobs on her couch. She wanted to strangle "Kevin" and Ava. She thought she finally found the man of her dreams, only for her heart to be crushed like never before. She took down all their pictures throughout their apartment and shredded them. Laura wanted nothing to do with "Kevin" anymore. She wanted all the memories of their relationship to be erased from the universe. After sobbing for over an hour, Laura decided she could do one of two things: continue to sob and feel sorry for herself or call the one person who could make her feel better and get back at "Kevin".
She picked up the phone and dialed the number she knew by heart. After three rings, someone answered and Laura, with tears and sadness in her voice, said, "Can you come to Port Charles? I really need you?"
"Sure thing, Love. I've always got time for you," answered Robert Scorpio.
Author's Note:
Even though I think the Kevin/Ryan story is the best thing happening on GH now, I feel like the show will be making the story more about Ava than Laura. So, in this fic, I decided to twist it up even more and focus it more on Laura. This chapter is a little short, but I was just setting the premise up. I swear the following chapters will be longer. I hope you like it!
