Good choice.

Lauren's POV

I'd been sat in here a good few hours in here now by myself on a table, it was around 11pm.
I didn't want to go back to the hotel to joey, I just wanted to stay here by myself with drink after drink soothing me. Plus I loved watching everyone around me laughing and having fun.

It's a shame I was in some kind of cafe place drinking hot chocolates and not in a club drinking vodkas.
I really did need an alcoholic drink but I'm stronger than that now.
It would be expected of me to have found some boozer and end up wasted.
I needed to prove to myself, to joey, my parents and everybody else that I've grown up and I'm stronger than that.

The temptation is still there but that's all it's ever gonna be, temptation.
"Closing time" the lady behind the counter shouted to everyone.
Great were was I supposed to go now.
As everyone started to make there way out I checked my phone for the time, 00:10.
Wow it was later than I thought.
What really caught me eye though was I had no missed calls no messages from joey, so he wasn't even concerned to were I was or if I was okay.

I made my way outside into the dark streets of Paris, no ideas of we're I was or were I was going.
This would be so much easier if I was at home, I miss home right now.
Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate, I got my hopes up thinking it would be joey with an apology, no.
How is your trip in the city of love;) Al, xx
I loved Alice's sense of humour, now we were closer she was more like a sister to me than a cousin she was great and I could tell her anything.
I replied back taking the honesty route seen as I was acting grown up and mature now.
Rubbish, worst trip ever, deffinitley no love going on here. L, xx
It was blunt, blunt but true.
My phone started ringing, I knew it wouldn't be long before Alice wanted all the details.
Just as I was about to answer I noticed a night club I wasn't gonna go in but I did wanna test my strength so I sat opposite it on some benches.
Before I even got the chance to say hello Alice came with all the questions.
A-what's he done?
L-hello to you too
A-lo? Come on
L-I don't even know we're to start al.
I explained everything from the interview to now to Alice and by the time I got to the 'joey snapping at the waitress and referring to me as his cousin' part I was sobbing down the phone, I don't know what happend I didn't normally let my guard down but I couldn't handle it no more without letting my emotions out, it must of been the friendly familiar voice or something, I dunno but Alice didn't judge me.
To say Alice was angry was an under statement, she was fuming with joey but didn't understand why he had acted like that, me either.
She put the phone down saying she was gonna talk to joey.

Joeys POV

I felt really bad for referring to Lauren as my cousin, I didn't mean to its just that picture at the interview upset me more than I let on, Lauren could have ended up like that, she could've ended up like grace.
I only went up to our room so I could cool down and at least let her enjoy her meal in her own comfort.
I fell asleep and when I woke up Lauren was nowhere to be seen.
I looked at my phone and I had a message of Alice asking me how the trip was, but what caught my eye was the time, 01:11am, shit.
I started to panic, Lauren hasn't been back in this room I left her around 6ish that was hours ago.
I looked on my phone again there was 6 missed calls of Alice and some pretty harsh messages too, I guess Alice must have spoke to Lauren.

Lauren's in bits how could you joey? Ring me back now. Al, x

Are you planning on leaving Lauren alone in the streets all night then, your being such an arsehole joey you're in the wrong not Lauren, Al x

Lauren's battery has died I can't get through to her, go find her now, she thinks you hate her, and she's not best pleased with you either, Al, x

Oh and we're talking when you get home, Al x

Oh god I was in so much trouble with Lauren and Alice, why is Lauren on the streets, I need to find her.
After a pretty heated discussion with Alice on the phone I went to find Lauren, I just hoped she didn't go in any clubs.
I looked in parks, cafes, museums everywhere I could think of, no Lauren.
I was walking up to the end of the road near our hotel were I spotted a nightclub, there was drunk people falling out of it and music blasting, I just hoped Lauren wasn't in here getting drunk I had to look though and if she wasn't in here I had no clue were she was, if anything happened to her I'd never forgive myself.
I started to make my way towards the entrance of the club.
"You won't find me in there" Lauren said from behind me.
I turned round quickly to look at her and my heart felt like it jumped out of place, she was safe.
I could tell she had been crying though her eyes were red and blotchy, her skin was pale.
I didn't mean to upset her, I just got upset myself with that picture.
She was shivering and had her arms around her body, I moved forward to hug her but she took a step back.
"It's good to know we're you thought I'd end up though after one fall out" Lauren snapped.
This isn't were I thought she'd end up but I had already tried every were else.
"I'm sorry, can I explain" I pleaded with her.
"Don't worry joey, you don't have to explain yourself to me, I'm just your cousin" she said.
I knew I had hurt her but surely she didn't think that's what I thought of her.
I really don't think of her as my cousin, I think of her as my girlfriend.
"I'm going back to the hotel" she said as she turned and walked away, me following her.
I had a lot of explaining to do.
