The nurse was behind as Mr. Jauregui got inside the room.

"How's everything here?" He asked...seemingly hearing the familiar voice of his father Lauren got up in an instant and turn to him.

"S-sir" Lauren nervously shuttered out.

I notice that Lauren had her hands holding onto my arms which she's been squeezing lightly I could sense her tension so I just let her hold me.

It doesn't hurt just a bit.

"Are you feeling alright Lauren?" The nurse asked.

"Yeah but I'm a little dizzy" she answered whilst looking down, it's like all of sudden she loss all of her confidence she's like a calm nervous shy person now.

"Let me see your head" Mr. Jauregui approached her so I made a step away which made Lauren let go of my arms.

Her father tucked out hair from her forehead to see a better look, Lauren was looking at me that moment her father was checking her and I could tell that she's extremely nervous so I gave her a smile and thumbs up to at least soothe her feelings.

"Does this hurt?" Her father asked while gently caressing her bandaged arms. This time Lauren look at him and nod "a little bit" she lowly answer.

I feel like they're not in a very good term I mean her and her father it's like they're near but they're apart.

What I'm seeing right now is her other side, which was kinda surprising since she's always been this sassy feisty crazy annoying and all type, few would be impatient to read her so they might've won't notice her soft side.

But overall I think she's nice.

Chapter one is done.

"Y/n you should get back to your class" the nurse told me and I was once again pulled back in the real world.

I blink multiple times and realize that I'm still inside the room and Lauren and her father is still talking.

"Oh yeah right right thanks" I mumble and adjust my bag at my back before turning.

"Ms. Y/l/n" I tensed up as my name was being called by him.

But I can't be rude so I turned back around slowly.

"Yes sir?" I asked.

"Thank you for looking after my daughter" he smile at me with a thankful gesture.

"It's a no problem sir".

"Would you mind if you stay with her until the day is over? I still have things to handle I'll be back once the school is over and take her home" he asked and my gaze drop to Lauren whose smiling cheekily whilst looking down.

Geez I can't say no can't i?.

"Don't worry about your classes cause I already excused you to all of it" he added.

I scratch the back of my neck and nod "yeah sir...I-ill stay with her".

He nod before turning his attention back to his daughter "I'll be back later take some rest and try to get sleep so your head will be alright I'll send food in here so you both could eat lunch".

Lauren nod still seems to be hesitant on looking his father. Mr. Jauregui gave her a kiss on the forehead before turning around.

"Thank you Ms. Y/l/n and also I'm sorry for the disturbance I'd be sure tomorrow you'll get every lessons you missed".

I smile and nod at him "yeah sir thank you".

Well if I have to be excused for almost every class then I don't mind watching lauren everyday.

Ha ha ha ha that was a joke.

The principal got out and I sigh realizing that here I am still watching sassy pants.

"Lucky y/n got to skip the whole class" the nurse chuckled out before taking a seat on the chair.

I let out an awkward laugh and sit back on where I was sitting for a while now.

"Hey Lauren your father just told you to rest right?" The nurse told Lauren and my eyes darted at her whose still looking at me.

"Later" she told the nurse without taking her gaze off of me.

The nurse nod before excusing herself to get something outside for a while.

"What?" I asked confused.

Why is she looking at me like that?

"Thought you wouldn't stay" she let out

I shrug "well the principal told me so, so I have no choice".

"Actually you do have a choice you could decline and he could just ask the nurse to look after me but you still stay cause you're worried bout me" Lauren utter out and I just can't explain how she's so good at connecting assumptions.

I roll my eyes instead and didn't say anything back anymore. I'm scared that I might say something offensive again.

I should be careful with my words who knows it's hurting her.

"Take some sleep Laure-" I told her but as I look up I noticed that she's already sleeping.

Damn that's fast.

I smile to myself seeing her so calm while her eyes closed.

I stand up and walk to the bed, I take grip onto the blanket and gently pull it towards her.

She sleeps like angel but when she's awake she's like a demon.

I chuckled and shook off the thought before going back to my chair.

My phone buzz so I pull it out from my pocket.

My hands tense up as Gigi's message pop on my screen.

Gigi: hey? Where are you y/n?

Gigi: I was at the library but you're taking so long so I decided to wait for you after your class but you didn't attend your class? Why?

Gigi: where are you?

I can't tell her about staying with Lauren...things won't go good.

: Hey g! I'm sorry I was doing some things so I can't go there I'll just see you after school! Take care.

I didn't tell her where am I or what I'm doing and if ever she reply and ask I think I'll just leave it unread.

There's too much to risk. Lauren just got in trouble and I don't want another one.

I put my phone back to my pocket and rest my head on the wall slowly closing my eyes.

"Y/n!! Dear hurry up and pack your things! We're going now" my mother said while I peek through the window and watch my dad pack the luggages inside the car.

It's our third time moving places and it should not be new to me.

But it still is.

We'll stay and then we'll leave... I'll get attached to the place to the people and they'll decided to go.

"Y/n sweetheart are you ready?" My mom asked before she opened the door of my room.

I sigh deeply and pull the one and only luggage that I'm carrying with me

"Are you sure all your things are already there hun?" My mom asked confused, I nod and carry my luggage she tried to helped me with it cause she thought it was heavy but it's not.

"Why is it so light? Did you just pack few?" She asked with eyebrows furrowed.

I shook my head "no mom everything is there" I assure her.

"But why is it not that heavy what things are inside?"

I look around my room and let out a heavy deep breath "memories are inside".

She knew how I felt about our continuous moving out and moving in but no one could do anything about it my father is such a workaholic man... he'll do anything for a job.

I sat in the car as i watch through the window while passed by so many lamppost but of course I didn't count any of them.

The rain is pouring hard and raindrops dripping through the glass of the window.

I felt a sudden touch on my knee and I look back to see my mom with a concern look.

"Y/n it'll be a good place I promise" she said.

Exactly that's what I'm so afraid of. It's a good place with many good people that I'll get attached with.

And them we'll have to leave again.

I'm so tired of temporary things in life.

I wanna live and be happy permanently.

"Y/n you'll be okay"

That's what I told myself everytime we will move caus honestly I don't get excited anymore.

Cause I'm used to this same old routine.

"Y/n!" I groaned as something light hit me in the head.

I shifted on my seat and hold on my head as a familiar pain came in.

Then another thing hit me. 

I squinted my eyes and notice lauren rolling pieces of tissues and throwing it at me.

I sit up straight rubbing my eyes till they get clear and I got shock to see about fifteen pieces of tissues on the floor.

"What the hell Lauren?" I groaned.

She laugh and throw another one at me.

"What's your problem?" I asked annoyed.

"You you were sleeping and I'm bored so I decided to wake you up" she chuckled and throw another one.

So far I've realized that this woman got many sides.

She's mostly annoying and sassy

But also she had soft side

And her childishly immature side of course.

I groan and start picking up the pieces of tissues she keep tossing on the ground.

"I swear throw one more and I'll punch you" I warn her and she threw another one

"Ooopsss" she chuckle.

I groaned and stand up and raise my fist at her as if I'll really punch her.

She smirk "do it".

"Why with your hands?" She asked.

"Punch me with your li-"

Her words were interrupted as the door creaked open.

I turn around to see who it is and everything just seems to keep surprising me.

"Gigi.."
