Lauren woke the next day still curled around joey, she moved slowly and slipped out of bed, made her way downstairs for a drink, she sat at the table with her thoughts.
"everything ok lauren ?" joey asked startling lauren from her thoughts
"sorry did I wake you?" lauren asked smiling at him
"no just you wasn't there when I woke" joey laughed
"sorry felt sick so got up" lauren replied
"no more sickness then?" joey asked
"nope, thank god" lauren laughed
"look lauren ive gotta go to a car auction today with your dad" joey said
"oh ok then" lauren sulked
"I don't want you seeing that peter anymore, especially when im not around" joey sternly said
"joey, we're just friends nothing more" lauren told him
"well I don't trust him ok" joey told her.
Later that day joey had gone to work and lauren had gone to the minuet mart, on the way back she bumped into whitney
"hey im going for a drink in the vic do you wanna come?" whitney asked
"sure why not" lauren smiled.
She walked into the vic and went and got herself a drink before heading to a table where whitney was sitting, she also saw peter and lucy sitting there, lauren sat down next to whitney and smiled at her friends
"no joey today?" lucy asked
"no hes working" lauren replied
"well that gives us a chance to catch up" peter smiled taking laurens hand a squeezing it
"yes, well im only here for one drink" lauren said taking her hand back from peter
"so how long have you and johnny been together?" peter asked
"JOEY and about 8 months" lauren replied angrily
"sorry, and well you must really like him" peter said
"I love him" lauren told him, feeling uncomfortable about the way peter was behaving.
Joey and max got back from the car auction and max offered to take joey for a drink, they made their way over to the vic, when they walked in joey saw lauren at the table with her friends, he couldn't believe she was sitting with peter after he asked her not to.
"lauren a word" joey said walking over to her
"ok" lauren said getting up from her seat, she followed joey outside
"I cant believe your in there with him after I asked you not to see him" joey declared
"I was just having a drink joey" lauren replied
"does this relationship mean nothing to you?" he asked getting angry
"of course it does, but you cant stop me seeing my friends" lauren proclaimed
"fine do what you want lauren" joey said before walking away.
"everything ok?" whitney asked as lauren sat back down next to her friend
"yeah, can we do something tonight?" lauren asked
"yeah course" whitney replied.
Later that night lauren and whitney were getting ready for a girly night out, they were listening to music whilst doing hair and make up
"you not drinking tonight lauren?" whit asked
"I cant" lauren replied
"why? Is everything ok?" whitney asked
"if I tell you, you cant say anything to anyone yet" lauren replied
"ok, aslong as your ok" whitney asked feeling concerned for her friend
"im pregnant" lauren told her,
"oh my god that's great" whitney said hugging her friend.
After being up west for the girls headed back to the square where whitney suggested they went to the club, lauren sighed at the thought knowing she didn't want another argument with joey. She walked into the club and got the shock of her life when she saw someone kissing joey.
