"Are you gonna be walking down the red carpet with Ross? Or is Maia?" Laura was asked by her co-star and best friend, Raini. They were at Raini's house having a little sleep over two nights before the red carpet premiere.

"Ross said that I would walk with him.. but now that I'm thinking about it, wouldn't Maia be the one that their managers would want walking with him?" Laura thought and Raini shrugged and made a soft 'dunno' sound. At that exact moment, Laura's phone vibrated in her pocket. She reached for it and looked at the caller id.

"It's Ross." Laura stated and pressed the green button, bringing her phone up to her ear.

'Laura! I needa talk to you.' She heard her boyfriend's voice through the phone. He sounded troubled.

"Hey Ross! Is uh, something wrong?" She asked him, her eyebrows furrowed in curiosity. Raini looked equally curious.

'Well, no... Um yeah, actually. You see, I have to walk down the carpet with Maia.. on Friday... Please don't be mad! It wasn't my decision! Our managers were talking and-' Laura cut him off.

"Hey, listen. I get it, okay? It's okay, I'm not mad. We'll at least see each other there right? It's okay Ross." Laura said in a comforting tone and she heard Ross sigh in relief.

'I'm really sorry Laur. I know I promised we'd be together on Friday. I'm for sure gonna make it up to you.' Ross apologized and Laura smiled sadly, looking at Raini who still had a curious look plastered on her face and was mouthing 'What happened?!' to her.

"Really, it's okay. I know how it is." Laura told him and she could hear someone calling Ross in the background.

'Sorry. Maia's calling me. I gotta go now. I love you.' Ross said sadly and Laura sighed.

"I love you too, bye." Laura ended the call and threw her phone on the other side of the couch they were sitting on. Raini widened her eyes and asked Laura what was going on.

"We were right. He has to go with freakin Maia." Laura sighed loudly and ran her fingers through her brunette hair. Raini looked at her sympathetically and wrapped her arm around her best friend's shoulder.

"It's okay Laura, we can go together. You know it wasn't Ross's choice." Raini comforted her and Laura nodded sadly.

"I know, but we haven't seen each other in months. I was just looking forward to spending the night with him." Laura mumbled and Raini looked at her and smiled.

"I know what'll get your mind off things!" Raini exclaimed, reached for the TV remote and turned it on. "Our favourite show, Celebrity Gossip!" Laura rolled her eyes and gave her best friend a smile.

"-on Laura Marano with co-star Maia Mitchell?" She heard as she focused her attention on the screen.

"Wait what? Rewind this please." Laura widened her eyes and Raini hurriedly grabbed the remote to press the rewind button.

"Oh no! Is Ross Lynch cheating on Laura Marano with co-star Maia Mitchell?" The Celebrity Gossip host exclaimed and a picture of her boyfriend and his brunette co-star kissing at the back of their favourite restaurant popped up. Laura reached for the remote out of Raini's hand and paused it on the picture.

"Wh-what the hell is this?" Laura choked out. Raini composed herself from the shock, then narrowed her eyebrows, looking at the TV with rage filled eyes.

"I'm going to kill him." She whispered loudly while Laura was shaking her head at the television.

"This is... it can't be real. Raini, it can't be real. This isn't real right?" Laura babbled, her heart pounding against her throat.

"It better fucking not be real." Raini replied, grabbing the remote from Laura's hand and pressing the play button.

"The two were spot eating dinner together earlier. The two stars then shared a kiss before they both left the restaurant together." The show's reporter said and pictures of the two eating together, kissing, and leaving in Ross's car popped up on the screen.

"How will Laura take this news? She's literally a sweetheart who has been dating a 'bad boy' for many years. Will she be that surprised?" The hosts were discussing the topic before moving on to something about Sabrina Carpenter's new music video.

"Bad boy? Ross is not a bad boy!" Laura exclaimed and Raini gave her a look.

"Laura, he kissed Maia. Are you seriously defending him!" Raini shook Laura shoulders and Laura looked away.

"I can't believe this. It is not true." Laura said quietly and Raini sighed, letting go of her best friend.

"Actually I'm not that surprised." Laura began. "I mean, Maia's tall, talented, she has that adorable Australian accent. Why wouldn't Ross pick her over me?" She laughed sadly and Raini's expression softened, grabbing her best friend into a tight embrace.

"Maybe this is just a misunderstanding." Raini said comfortingly, cradling Laura in her arms. "Maybe there's an explanation for this, yeah? Ross loves you, Laur."

"Then why did he kiss her? At our favourite restaurant?" Laura asked, tears building up once again, her voice shaky.

"I don't know, Laur. We'll find out though, okay?" Raini said and Laura choked back a sob, but then fell apart in Raini's arms. After she calmed down, she fell asleep on the couch. Raini looked at her with sympathetic eyes and then grabbed her own phone. She sent out a quick text before putting her phone back into her pocket and also falling asleep.
