"Lucy … get up! Its 12 o clock! And Bobby is out of playschool in an hour" Peter yelled up the stairs

"| Alright , alright" Lucy said walking down the stairs and into the kitchen

" Finally" Peter replied

" Where is everyone" Lucy asked

" There all out " Peter said

" Peter , will you do me a favor please" Lucy asked

" No way I am not collecting Bobby again" Peter said

" Please I wanna see Lauren , I think there is something wrong" Lucy told him

" Ya actually I was thinking she seemed different , she seems less confident or something" Peter replied

" Omg I know right , its like she is nervous all the time, Thats why I wanna get it out of her" Lucy said

" Lucy she will tell you what is wrong if she wants , you can't force her" Peter wisely told her

" Hello , Im her best friend of course I can force her" Lucy replied

" Lucy" Peter said shooting her a warning glance

" Will you just look after Bobby or what … if you do it I will tell you whats wrong" Lucy said

" Thats bribery … but it worked , See ya later and you better tell me" Peter said going for the door and once he left Lucy text Lauren

" Hey Love , wanna hang out? Luce"

" Heya erm ok , where? Laur"

"Call over everyones out , Luce"

A Few minutes later

" Heya" Lucy said

" Hi" Lauren replied

" Look you can tell me mind my own business but I wanna ask you something" Lucy said

" Ask away" Lauren said

"Promise me you will be honest" Lucy asked

" I promise" Lauren said starting to get worried

" Whats wrong ever since you have been back you have been very cagey about everything , the slightest thing makes you jump , what happened?" Lucy asked

" Im fine" Lauren shot back at her

" Lauren please , you promised you would tell me" Lucy replied

" Lucy I cant and trust me its better you do not no" Lauren replied with her eyes starting to fill

" Lauren! Tell me I can help" Lucy promised her

" Please drop it" Lauren said before running out

A little while later when Peter returned

" I take it it did not go well" Peter asked noticing the worried look on Lucy's face and her lack of concentration in her homework

" I'm really worried" Lucy told him after telling him the conversation she had with Lauren.

" Wow , it must be serious, do you want me to go talk to her" Peter asked

" You can try, hopefully you can get more out of her than I did" Lucy said

At Lauren's

" Hey can I come in" Peter asked

" Sure , everyone is out" Lauren said as they walked into the sitting room

" How are you" Peter asked

" Look if this is about the Lucy thing" Lauren asked

" Lauren were just worried , is it something to do with with School" He asked but Lauren just shook her head

" Is it something to do with your family" Peter asked and with that Lauren broke into tears

" Lauren what is it please , you can trust me" Peter said try to console her

" It – It's" Lauren tried to get out

" Lauren please" Peter begged

" It's Greg" Lauren said trying to stop crying but before Lauren could say anymore the door opened and Greg walked in.

" Lauren .. Who is this" Greg smiled

" Em this is Peter" Lauren said trying not to look at him so he would not see the tears

" Yes well it is getting late so you will have to hurry it up" Greg smiled at Peter

" Were just in the middle of something" Peter smiled back

" No it is fine , I should not have said anything , its nothing , I'm fine" Lauren said

" Lauren your obviously upset" Peter said

" You heard her she will be fine" Greg said before showing Peter the door

At Home

" Well what happened" Lucy asked eagerly

" She was about to tell me when Greg walked in... Have you met him yet" Peter asked

"No why" She replied

" There is something about that guy , I do not trust him and I know for a fact that he has something to do with her being so upset " Peter told his sister

" Yeah she never mentions him" Lucy replied

" Well whatever it is , Im gonna find out" Peter said adamantly
