“I don’t know, but if doesn’t tell her soon…I think one of us should,” Matt interrupted. “But it’s not our place to tell her. If Greg wants to tell her, he will when he’s ready and the time is right,” Claudia said with a sophisticated look on her face. “Whatever, it’s not our problem and I’m hungry so can we go get something to eat?” he was already standing and waiting by the door. “Show some damn compassion for them, man!!” Jesse looked up at Matt. “I AM showing compassion! Now show some compassion for my stomach, and lets get something to eat!” he was now holding everyone’s coat. “OK, ‘cuz I know that one of you is gonna wanna eat sometime..we might as well feed you now,” Claudia laughed.
******Back at Laurie’s House…******
“Okay, so what is this important thing that you have to say that might cause me to hurt you?” I tried joking around again; it didn’t work. He just looked at me again. “Sorry,” I got quiet and got ready to hear what he had to say. “Well…one night me and the guys went to a club. We were there and I didn’t realize it but I got a little tipsy and still consumed some more alcohol than I was supposed to,” I interrupted him. “So you were drunk?” “Well ya see-“ “Greg, you were drunk,” I said shortly waiting to see what he’d say back. “Technically-“ “Greg, you were drunk! Just admit it already!” I said half laughing. “Yeah…” he looked pale. “OK, continue..” I got serious again and waited for him to start talking. “So at this club…I umm, well while I was drunk..” he stuttered. “Just spit it out..it can’t be that bad,” he gave me a nervous smile. “I kind of hooked up with a girl there, but it was an accident and I was drunk! I’m so sorry Laur, it won’t happen again,” he was talking about 100 words a minute but I understood what he had just said. “You what?” I got up and backed away a little. “Okay, you know what…I understood when the whole Lily thing happened that it was all her. But you did it this time…” I felt my face getting warm and at the same time I wanted to burst out into tears. I ran up to my room leaving him down stairs in the family room. I knew that he realized that I was running away from him because all of the sudden his feet were pounding on the ground after me. “LAUREN!” I kept running until I got to my room and I locked the door behind me. “LAUREN COME ON..OPEN THE DOOR” he started to try and twist the knob. He realized it was locked…so he pounded on the door as he continued to yell. “LAUREN, SERIOUSLY…OPEN THE DOOR” I looked towards the door (like as if he could actually see me) “GO AWAY GREG, I’M NOT IN THE MOOD TO TALK TO YOU RIGHT NOW,” while he was still pounding on the door…”BUT I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!” “Too bad for you, huh?” I said quietly enough so that I wasn’t screaming. He stopped pounding on the door. ‘Where did he go?’
A few minutes later I heard a banging on the window “Oh..my..God..” Greg was standing on a ladder trying to see through my thin drapes with big puppy-eyes…I didn’t fall for it. I wrote on a piece of paper “GO HOME” He didn’t get the message…I opened the window. I’m pretty sure that he wasn’t expecting that because he lost his balance and fell off of the ladder and straight into the bushes. I ran downstairs to make sure he was OK and saw him pulling thorns out of his crunchy, hair-sprayed head. When I realized he was OK, I let him “fix” himself and went back upstairs. As much as I wanted to laugh, I couldn’t do it. First Lily…then he goes off, gets drunk, hooks up with a girl and expects me to forgive him just like that? UGH I’m going crazy. If he could even begin to understand how I feel, he’d do the same thing I am. Next thing I know, the phone rings.
“Hello?” “Yo…Laur?” I heard Kel on the other side. She was somewhere LOUD because she was practically screaming in my ear. “HEY” I screamed back…hopefully she’d hear me. “WHAT HAPPENED? GREG CALLED AND HE SOUNDED LIKE SHHHHIT WHAT DID YOU DO? TAKE AWAY HIS MOJO?” I busted up. “No..I found out he cheated” I heard more noise. “HE WHAT?” “HE CHEATED!” “WHO’S HEATED?!?” I couldn’t help but laugh. “WHERE ARE YOU?!?” “I’M AT JESSE’S HOUSE” “Oooh…wait-Jesse?!?? Don’t you like Frank?” “YEAH..HE’S HERE TOO…WE’RE JUST HANGIN THO..BUT SINCE JESSE THINKS HE’S BLACK, HE’S TRYIN TO RAISE THE ROOF BY PLAYIN NELLY AND JA RULE..ass…” Then I heard Jesse in the background “SHUT UP KELLY! YOU KNOW YOU LIKE THIS STUFF” “Oooh shit!” Kelly laughed. “What?” I was more interested now and straining my ear to hear her. “HE’S TRYIN TO DO THE WHOLE ‘2 FINGAS OF A PLAYA’ THING WHILE CRIP WALKIN..POOR WHITE BOY” “BUT KELLY…FRANK’S WHITE TOO” “BUT HE KNOWS THAT HE’S WHITE! JESSE THINKS HE’S LIKE..SECRETLY BLACK OR SOMETHING AND HE THINKS THAT HIS WHITENESS IS SOME SORT OF SKIN DISORDER..” the music got louder. “SO WAIT…BACK UP” she made the noise of car breaks. “Yeah?” I waited for her to talk again. “WHO’S HEATED??” “No one’s heated Kel” I looked out my window to make sure that Greg wasn’t out there again with the ladder. “Greg cheated on me when the guys were in England,” “OOOH SHIT SON!” Jesse popped outta no where again. “And you say I think I'M black?” Frank and Jesse laughed over the music. “HE CHEATED ON YOU?!?” the music stopped. (Frank to Jesse) “Oooh God…Jess, he told her” “DID YOU KICK HIS ASS LAUR?!?” Jesse screamed from the other side. “NO, he did that on his own..he tried to talk to me by getting next to my window using a ladder because I ran up to my room and wouldn’t let him in. And then..he fell off and right into my bushes and got thorns up his ass,” Kel put me on speaker so that the other 2 could hear what I had to say. They all burst out laughin. “HE FELL!!! Moron..” Kel muttered. I heard a loud thump. “Jesse was tryin to crip walk and he fell..speakin about morons..this one over here tripped on his own leg” Frank laughed. “Kel, I’m gonna go” “ARITE, I’LL KICK HIS ASS LIKE HE DIDN’T DO ENOUGH OF THAT HIMSELF..BUT I’LL TALK TO YOU LATER,” “Okay … bye,” BYE!!” All 3 chimed in as I hung up the phone.
The phone rang about 10 minutes later. “Lauren?” it was Claudia. “Hey Claud, what’s up?” I sat down on the bed. “Come down to the studio, you need to see this..” I stood up. “See what?” I started pacing. (that’s what I do when I get nervous)“It’s Greg..”
