I lauren branning had really gone and done it this time. I mean I had just got out of rehab and already I was causing trouble. Anyway it all started when me and my cousin crystal were in collage. We were doing work and this girl made this comment about my work. I snapped and ended up getting sent out of the collage. Crystal left the collage with me, because she only went because I went. You see crystal doesn't give a fuck about stuff like that. She loves singing and she is really good at it. Me and crystal are what you call two trouble makers. Crystal is worse than me though. We live an hour away for walford, where my cousin/the love of my life lives. None of my family of friends from walford know were I am, well apart for dad and abi. I don't want them to know, if I'm honest with you. I'm happy were I am, me and crystal have loads of mate around here and crystal as a boyfriend called richard, but we all call him rick. Crystals brother joey wouldn't like him, I can tell you that. But then again it ain't up to him who crystal goes out with, and crystal and joey don't talk at all anymore. Crystal hates joey because joey scared of a boyfriend she had years ago. Anyway today was a year since me and joey were in the car crash, that means it was also a year since joey broke my heart. I still remember what happened but I don't want to.

"Couz, earth to lauren," crystal said snapping her figures in front of my face. "Oh sorry I was just thinking," I sighed. "About how today is a year since my fucking brother broke your heart?" Crystal asked. "Yep," I sighed. "Forget about him, or not, because mum is going to walford for a few days, she's taking oscar with her, so her can see your dad," crystal stated. "Oh, there's more isn't there?" I asked. "I'm afraid so, I have to go with mum, I don't get a say in the matter, but I want to see al anyway, mum said you can come to," crystal said. "Can I think about it?" I asked. "Yep, you have till this weekend, I was only just told about it," crystal said going to leave the room. "Ok and have a good time with rick tonight," I said. "I will, see you later," crystal said before leaving.

I sat thinking about going to walford. Could I face seeing joey again? Did I want to see him again? Was he with anyone? Wait why was this all about joey. God I need some help and fast.

So hope you liked the first chapter. What will lauren decided. Will she go to walford or will she stay with her mum? Find out in the next chapter.
