Joey was talking to a customer when lauren walked towards the car-lot, she smiled at joey before walking in, she sat at his desk waiting for him to come in, she looked up and saw a picture of her and him that alice had taken, she smiled at it thinking about how happy they looked.
"hey beautiful" joey smiled as he walked into the office
"alright" lauren smiled back at him
"what can I do for you today miss branning?" he asked moving closer to her
"I just thought I'd come and see what you were up to" lauren replied
"and there was me thinking you'd come for something else" joey smirked
"no, not for that joey" lauren sighed, she didn't want this talk again. She had been back from holiday for a week now and since being back she hadn't slept with joey, she didn't want to, her hormones were all over the place, her breasts were sore and the last thing she wanted was sex.
"so what do you want?" joey asked with an edge to his voice
"please don't start this again joey, im just not in the mood, I thought our relationship wasn't going to be just about sex" lauren sighed
"its not, but its been 2 weeks since we last done anything" joey sighed sitting down in his chair looking at lauren, he knew something was wrong with her, she hadn't been herself since she came back from spain, he hated the thought but he knew lauren was going off him, he couldn't help but think she had met someone in spain and didn't know how to tell him.
"I love you joey" lauren said looking straight into his eyes
"its nice to hear you say it" joey replied
"joey please, ive just not been feeling well that's all" lauren tried to reason with him, she still hadn't told him she was pregnant, her bump was starting to show, so when she went out or saw joey she would wear a baggy top, at home though she didn't, Tanya had been doing some online shopping to get baby things ready.
"ok well ive gotta get on" joey said, hinting to lauren that their conversation was over. Lauren sighed as she leant down to give joey a small kiss before leaving.

"lauren darling come and look at this" Tanya squealed as lauren walked into no.5
"omg mum that's gorgeous" lauren smiled looking at the whinnie the pooh baby Moses basket
"I know, he or she is going to look so sweet snuggled in this" Tanya smiled
"yeah" lauren sighed
"whats up darling?" Tanya asked
"I just feel as though joey should be getting excited with me" lauren said
"so you've still not told him" Tanya asked
"no, I think he thinks I don't want him no more aswell because I don't want sex" lauren sighed
"darling it will get easier, but you need to tell him and as for the second part that will soon change, you wont be able to keep ypur hands off him" Tanya laughed
"thanks mum, I don't know what I'd do without you" lauren smiled giving her mum a hug.

Joey sat in the car-lot office trying to work out what had gone wrong with him and lauren, he couldn't understand why she was being so off with him, yes she said she loved him and he believed that but there was a part of him that thought she didn't anymore. They were going to need to talk about everything.
joey finds out in the next chapter... but how will he? please keep reviewing x
