"I know that you're old enough to make your own decisions but seriously Lauren, Can't you just stay around here for a while longer?" Tanya begged Lauren.

"No, Mum... I can stay around here with all the bed memories. Every single day for the rest of my life I'll have to see Joey's face everywhere I turn and everytime I see that face I will always be reminded of what could of been and how perfect we were together." A tear slowly fell down Lauren's cheek as she thought about Joey.

"Alright sweetheart." Tanya sighed as she heard the door knock. She quickly ran down the stairs and slowly opened it to reveal Joey standing on the doorstep.

"Um, Can I come in?" Joey asked, He knew he was asking for lots even attempting to get close to Lauren after what happened but he had to do something.

"What's the about first?" Tanya moved in front of the doorway blocking his entry.

"She told me she was leaving... I can't let her do that." Joey looked down at the floor and scuffed his feet across the ground.

Tanya looked confused. "Why does it concern you what Lauren does?"

"Because I..." Joey stuttered, He simply couldn't find the right words.

"I think you better come in then, Don't you." Tanya slowly moved out of the way as he walked inside. "She's upstairs... I dont want any funny business though."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Lauren had nearly packed all of her bags and she was just placing the last few meaningful photos into the bags. Most of the photos were of her and Joey at Thorpe Park last year, She remember how happy she was back then, They both agreed that they would face anything together and they would never be teared apart. How did it all end up like this.

"Lauren?" Joey knocked on the door as she quickly placed the photo underneath the blanket on the bed before turning around.

"What are you doing here?" Lauren sighed and continued her packing.

"I can't let you go." Joey walked over to her as she looked up.

"Well you wanted to let me go a few months ago." Lauren gulped. "What did you say? Oh yeah, It was just a bit of fun... Well if I'm just a bit of fun to you, You shouldn't care!"

"But I do care, Why don't you believe that?" Joey stared at her, He knew he was upsetting her but he really wanted to get through to her.

"Joey! You were willing to leave me as if I was nothing!" Lauren shouted as she threw a picture frame across the room making it smash on the floor.

"Will you just calm down?" Joey walked over to her and grabbed her arms to make her calm. "Stop!"

"NO!" Lauren started crying and began to struggle.

"CALM DOWN!" Joey shouted.

"WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME!" Lauren cried and there was silence.

Joey stared at her and she stared back. "I do love you."

"What?" Lauren looked up, She had finally stopped strugging. "But... Why did you leave me?"

"Derek... He was messing with my head... Messing with my thoughts. But he's gone, and it's just us." Joey smiled slightly.

"But how can I be sure you wont dump me again when somebody else messed with your head?" Lauren gulped.

"I promise you, I will never leave you." Joey held her hand. "Just give me another chance..."
