A/N: Really had this in my mind, just had to write this, before writing next chapter for my story. Oneshot :) Bits taken from the show.
A/N2: Based on the episode when Tanya kicks Lauren out..
After Lauren had come back after buying a small bottle of vodka, drinking half of it in the alleyway, she had arrived back home, her sister realising she was drunk, she grabbed the bottle off her sister pouring it down the sink. Lauren looked at her shocked as she held the empty bottle of vodka before grabbing her sister pushing her out of the door.
"Right, get out. Get out!" Lauren yelled as she pushed her out of the kitchen slamming the door shut, locking it. Hearing the bangs from her sister banging on the door whilst yelling her name.
Lauren grabbed the bottle before dropping it again, yelling in fury. "SHUT UP!" Before hearing the silence, as she began on her task her anger still in her mind from her sister pouring the alcohol down the sink.
Not much time passed before hearing her sisters and her grans voices, the bang of her gran banging on the door. "Lauren! Open this door or you'll have me to deal with." She sighed unlocking the door as they both walked in looking around at the mess.
Lauren looked around as they did. "You wanted me back Abs? This is me."
Abi frowned before rushing to the table trying to fix it. "No, no, no!"
A fight started upon them all, not hearing the bang of the door of Tanya and Oscar walking in.
Tanya walked in the kitchen after telling Oscar to go get some rest, hearing the shouts of her children and her mom fighting."Oi, oi. What's going on in here?" She frowned looking at the mess, looking around in shock, looking at Abi, before looking to Lauren. "Did she-did she do this? All your notes, Abi.. All your hard work."
Abi shook her head sighing. "She ain't herself, mum." Tanya shook her head. "No, and we ain't either are we? None of us are. None of us are ourselves with all this madness going on in our house." Lauren rolled her eyes as she looked at her Mum.
Tanya sighed. "Do you know where i've just come from? From the doctor's with your brother. Cause' he fell asleep at school. I thought that's not like him, is it? They thought he had a virus or something. They checked him over and do you know what they said to me? They said it doesn't look like he's had a good night sleep in days. He's five years old Lauren! And he can't sleep in his own house! He's fallen asleep at his desk, the poor little mite, because of you!"
Cora jumped in quickly "Let's all take a deep breath shall we?"
Tanya ignored her pointing to Abi, looking at Lauren. "Your sister? Your sister loves the bones of you! She used to look up to you, now she don't even want to be in the same house as you. Can you blame her?! Look at this place!" Tanya yelled at her angrily "You are wrecking all of us with this! Do you understand!?"
Lauren sighed. "Yeah, and all you do is give me grief, Mum."
Tanya sighed before grabbing her arm, Lauren tried pulling away as she yelled "What are you doing!? Ow! That hurts!" Tanya pushed her in the hallway. "Where we going then?" Lauren tried to go upstairs, Tanya grabbed her, as Lauren yelled out in pain. "Ow!" Tanya opened the door, pushing her out.
"Your dad and his wife think they can sort you out. Well i tell you what? Let em' try." Lauren looked at her mom in shock as she slammed the door in her face before walking down the steps, feeling truly alone.
She shook her head before pulling the cash she took from her mom's purse, shrugging walking towards the Vic, she sighed before looking up quickly hearing Joey's and Jack's voice. "Calm down Joe! It'll just make him want you to do it more!" Joey glared at there Uncle Jack. "He slept with my little sister! He used her like she was trash!" Lauren looked at them in shock hearing his words, taking a deep breath she walked over nervously.
"Joe..Joey?" Joey stopped hearing her voice. "I..I'm sorry i'll go, i just heard what you were saying.. Is Al okay." Joey turned around looking at her.
"I'm not sure.. I haven't seen her. Michael told me, he used her.. took her virginity like it meant nothing." She smiled lightly taking his bruised hand in hers. "How about i clean your hand, and then you can go see Alice." He nodded smiling slightly. "Yeah, thanks."
Jack smiled at them. "Why don't you take him to the car lot, there's a first aid kit in there." She nodded looking at Joey. "I know." She smiled softly remembering the last time they were in there sharing kisses while she cleaned his face after he faked Derek's punch on himself. Joey smiled before Lauren lead them to the car lot.
Lauren opened the door, walking in over to the cabinet where the first aid was kept as Joey sat down, Lauren looked at him feeling a slight dejavu, she shook her head before she took his hand in her cleaning it softly as he winced, hissing slightly, she fought a smile. "Don't be a baby." He chuckled "I'm not.. It really hurts." She smiled looking at him, as she cleaned his hands there eyes staring into each others, there lips close to each others.
She shook her head sighing before feeling his lips against hers, her eyes shut instantly, kissing him back softly, her lips pressing against his. Her hands moving along his chest towards his neck, the feeling of happiness running through her at their kiss.
A few minutes passed by before they softly broke off the kiss, there eyes opening slowly, looking into each others eyes. He smiled softly. "Sorry.. I didn't mean.."
She moved away quickly. "I.. You.. you regret that kiss don't you." She smiled sadly "I get it.. I'm nothing." She shut the first aid box before putting it back.
He stood up walking to her "Babe, your not nothing, you're everything. I don't regret that kiss, Cause' I love you."
Lauren frowned before looking up at him. "You.. you love me?"
He smiled putting a piece of hair behind her ear. "Always."
She smiled softly before sighing "Mum kicked me out, i was coming to the Vic for a drink.. as usual. And i chose to help you. I'd choose you over it all the time, together or not."
He smiled sadly "Why don't you come stay with me, ey'? I'll help you stop the alcohol, you need help babe."
She sighed softly "I need you."
He nodded smiling "We need each other, so i'll help you get off the alcohol, and we'll be together? Deal?"
She giggled. "Briber, but.. Deal."
He smiled, leaning down kissing her softly. "Let's go get a coffee, sober you up more, then we'll go see Alice, together. And, we'll keep you off the alcohol, it'll be hard, but it'll be worth it."
She nodded nervously. "Mum tried, but it was too hard. But i think that was because i had nothing to fight for. I do now. You."
He smiled "I know, I promise to never leave you again. Let's go get a coffee."
She nodded grinning before walking out with him, heading to the cafe. Walking in smiling, Joey smiled "Go find a seat babe, i'll order." Lucy looked at them shocked before looking at Joey, as he smiled watching Lauren, before turning to Lucy. "Can i have two coffee's Luce and two of your iced buns."
Lucy frowned "Joey, why are you with Lauren? You're never with her. Not since you broke up.."
Joey grinned "Oh, we're back together."
Lucy looked at him confused. "When did this happen?"
Joey smiled "Oh about 10 minutes ago, bring them over yeah?"
Lucy frowned glaring as he walked over with Lauren kissing her cheek, as she smiled sarcastically "Sure.. Righty-o."
Lauren and Joey sat together, as she kissed him softly. "I love you, Joe. I promise to get better, me and you. Always." He smiled putting a piece of hair behind her ear.
Lucy looked at them shocked. He did the hair thing...
Joey smiled at Lauren "I love you, too. Forever. We'll get you better babe. I promise. I'll go over to your house later and get your stuff, yeah." She nodded at him smiling. "Thank you. Really."
They looked at each other smiling, their eyes not leaving each others... There love shown from their actions, his hand stroking her cheek as her hand resting against his on the table, softly stroking the top of his hand with her thumb, smiles on their faces. They were together again. That's all that mattered...
