Your POV

I groan as I sit up on the couch. I decided that I'd let Lauren sleep in the bed. Hey, she may not love me, but I still love her.

I get up, my back cracking in the process.

"Ew." I swiftly turn around to see Bea.

"Where were you?" I ask, yawning.

"Oh, I watched you two argue then went to bed."

I sigh, resting my head on the counter.

"What happened?" Bea asks, now standing next to me.

I moist my lips, "She said she was sorry. I asked her if she loved me..and she didn't say anything."

Bea sighs, "Y/N, you have to give her time. I'm sure she loves you, she's just scared."

"Of what, though?" I question.

She shrugs, "Only Lauren knows."

I stand in front of the bedroom door. I swallow and slowly push open the door so it won't creak.

Lauren is cuddling into my pillow, her arms wrapped around it in one of my hoodies. Her eyes are puffy and her hair is in a bun.

My heart breaks at the sight. She's crying, because of me. I did this, I made her cry.

I walk over to the bed, getting in next to her. I wrap my arms around her, pulling her closer to me. Lauren lets go of pillow, turning around and attaching herself to me. Her legs wrap around my waist and her head is in the crook of my neck.

"I'm sorry, baby girl." I whisper in her ear. "I'm so sorry."

"No," she mummers against my skin. "I'm sorry for flirting with Luis. I'm sorry for everything." I feel hot tears on my neck.

I lift her face up so she's looking at me. I take the pad of my thumb, wiping her tears away.

"Don't cry," I mumble. "I don't like seeing you cry. It breaks my heart, so please don't cry."

"Okay."

"Okay," I whisper. "Go back to sleep." I place a kiss on her lips, then pulling away. Lauren sighs and rests her head against me, closing her eyes.
