My head's in heaven, my soles are in hell.
"Are you sure you want to do this Lola?" BB said looking the dippy dancer in the eyes with a serious look on his face. Danny, Lauren and Ronnie nodded. The five where sitting in the café where Ronnie had told Lauren about her feelings for Danny. BB couldn't help feeling that Lola was rushing into moving in with Stefan and Danny, Lauren and Ronnie seemed to share his feelings. "It's a big commitment and what happens if you two break up?" Lola gave BB a Carry-On-Talking-And-Kill-You look, but he did not pick up on this and continued talking. "I mean, he is a bit more mature than you and you may want different things. Are you really, really sure this is what you want? We're just looking out for you Lola we don't want you to get hurt! We care for you and we want to make absolutely sure you really want this." Lola stood up suddenly and BB saw that tears where pouring out of her eyes.
"YES BB I AM SURE I WANT TO MOVE IN WITH HIM!!!! I LOVE HIM!!! STOP TREATING ME LIKE A LITTLE KID!!!!" at the tone of Lola's voice BB could tell her tears where ones of anger but before he could apologise she had stormed out.
"Nice one BB! You've gone and upset her!" Lauren said burring her head in her hands. "I Can't believe you!" at this Lauren herself got up and stormed out of the café. Looking out of the window BB could see she was trying to catch up with Lola.
"She's right you know" Danny said taking a sip of his milkshake.
"Who?" BB asked still watching Lauren as she ran after Lola.
"Lola, we do kind of treat her like a little kid…" Danny trailed of and looked down wards with a guilty look on his face. Ronnie looked at BB and BB looked at Lauren through the window. By this time she had caught up with Lola and BB could see by the look on her face that she was apologising to her. Lola said something to Lauren, shook her and stormed of in a different direction. Lauren finally looked back at the café and realised that BB was looking at her. She shrugged her shoulders and gave him a small wave and a smile then turned and started to walk home. BB sighed and finished the last of his milkshake.
"I should probably go and find Lola. See ya later Danny, bye Ronnie."
"What are you doing later?" Ronnie asked Danny as BB picked up his bag and ran out hoping to catch up with Lola.
"Oh, we're planning Jez's surprise party. We've only got a couple of weeks, it's his eighteenth and his dad will be away so we're gonna ask his dad if we can throw a surprise party at his house."
"Cool, can I help?"
"Of course you…" Danny was interrupted by Stefan storming in and giving Danny a furious. "Hey Stefan" he said nervously, not looking up. "Heard the news. I think it's great!"
"GREAT!? GREAT!?" Stefan repeated in a loud voice that made Danny jump. "Ok Danny tell me if you think this is great! - I just ran into Lola and she informed me that she didn't want to move in with me because some people had told that it wasn't a good idea! And who might those people be hmmm!?" Stefan towered over Danny waiting for an answer.
"Umm… umm… well we just think that maybe she might be rushing into things, it is a big commitment and all…"
"Danny we went to Australia for heavens sake!!! We lived together then!!! And I thought that since we love each other so much she might want to move in with me but… but" To Danny's surprise Stefan began to cry. He collapsed into the seat opposite Danny and buried his head in his hands. His shoulder shook with sobs as Danny uncomfortable patted him on the back. "I-I don't k-k-know what t-t-to do! I l-l-l-love h-h-her so so much and I thought she loved me too!"
"She does!" Ronnie insisted.
"No she doesn't! other wise she would be moving in with me! She doesn't love me!"
"Look, Stefan" Danny said firmly "She loves you much more than you think! And we know you love her just as much possibly more! So go find her for goodness sake! If you let her go you'll regret it for the rest of your life! Trust me! No go!" Stefan didn't move, just looked at Danny gratefully "GO!" at the second "go" Stefan got up, grabbed his bag and rushed out the door giving a hasty "See ya!" to the two still at the table. Danny gave a smile to Ronnie and stood up. "You coming' then babe?" he said offering his hand to Ronnie.
"Yep" she said taking his hand an standing up. The two walked out of the café hand in hand. Ronnie rested her head on Danny's shoulder as they walked to BB flat to plan Jez's surprise party. Ronnie smiled and Danny smiled. Nothing could be more perfect but soon all that would change.
