MISTAKEN LOVE
CHAPTER 4
"Eric?! hello?!?"
"This
is Erics mother he is in the hospital! He has been unconcious but
asking for you."
"I'm on my way!"
Erics mother said they got into a fight and he stormed out
of the house and she hadn't heard from him until she heard on
her husbands police scanner that a boy fitting his discription
had been terribly mugged. She said it was one street away from my
house. The doctors wont let me in! I've been screaming at
them for what seems like hours now telling them that if they dont
let me in that sombody is going to get extremly hurt, they gave
in.
The second I walked in I ran to the side of his bed. He looked
pale as a ghost or a dead person, his hair didnt look normal,
faided and washed out. His face was swollen, black and blue all
over.
"Lauren?" He whispered in a raspy voice.
"I'm right here Eric, are you feeling ok?"
"Physically or emotionally?"
"Both."
"Terrible. I cant belive you would do that! I thought
you liked me as much as I liked you and then that happend! I wish
I never asked you out that night!"
Tears streaming down my face, "I dont know what I was
thinking! I shouldnt have let him kiss me, I shouldnt have kissed
back..."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up! He kissed you
first?!?!"
"Yes...?"
"Let me out of this damn bed! I'm gonna kill
him!"
I was speachless I should have answerd I should have lied to save
their years of friendship and taken the consiquences! I pushed
him gently back into his bed and
said, "No no! You lay down and rest. It was as much my fault
as it was his so nobody is going to be killed or beatin'
up."
"I was on
my way to your house.." He slighty said while difting to
sleep.

CHAPTER 3
I repeadily called Eric and tried to pass him notes in
class but he ignored my phone calls and ripped any note without
even looking at them. He blocked me on facebook and he wont even
look at me now.
"Lauren what have we done?" Brandon looks at me
and says looking like he is going to burst into tears "He
was my bestfriend and I betrayed him"
I
looked at him and said "This isn't all your fault, I
kissed back knowing that this would hurt him." By now
I'm histariclly crying so Brandon hugged me.
"I didn't mean to hurt him but I think I'm in
love with you, dont cry Lauren, hunny don't cry."
I really didnt want to hurt him. This was one of those Twilight
situations, it was a desision about who I should be, and who I
am. When I got home that day all I could think about was Eric,
and what he must have been feeling like watching that happen. I
grabbed my bike and quickly rode to Zee's house which was
only two blocks away. I hadn't talked to her about the
situation much because we don't really agree about who I
should be with, but right now I just need my bestfriend to hold
me and tell me that everything is going to be ok. I rang the door
bell about five times until sombody finally answered the
door.
"Lauren what are you doing here? Why are you crying? What
happened? Are you ok?"
"No I
dont know what to do Zee! I'm completly in love with Brandon
but I love Eric to! And it's worse that i hurt Eric and now
he isn't talking to me or anything!"
I explaind to her what happened that day and she told me I
just need to find a way to catch his complete atention so he will
listen to me and let me talk to him about it. I spent the
night at her house that night i was to exhasted from crying to go
back home. I woke up at about four in the morning thinking the
vibration was my alarm clock having a malfuntion or somthing so i
grab it and look to check.
