I awoke, I didn't really remember much from last night, I had been drinking again, I picked up my phone and checked it, 33 missed calls from mum. I deleted them all, I rolled over and saw my cousin, Alice, crap.

"Alice, Hi.." I looked down, I had only my bra and shorts on.

"Lauren how could you!?" From the sounds of things Alice was angry. "Your mum is in bits, don't you think she has enough to contend with, cancer?"

"So what Alice, you do not have the authority to come in here and start having a go, this is my life not yours and I am going to live it how I want now go away."

Alice ran out and Ryan woke up, I well went splat back down.

"Lauren who was that, is everything ok?"

"Hey um Ryan, last night was great... I think I can't remember much if I'm honest but yeah I have to go, I'll call you later."

I ran out, it was my mum's last scan tonight to check if the cancer had gone. I hurried across the square and burst in through the front door.

"Mum I'm sorry"

"Oh darling it's ok, it was my fault, you've been through enough recently, see who you want it's fine, honest, now lets go."

We stepped out the front door, I saw Ryan, he was talking to someone, it looked like Janine...

"Lauren darling hurry up" I got in the car and as my mum drove past I saw Ryan and Janine start kissing.
