I thought up of a new Corney series out of the blue! In this one, it's going to be sort of one-sided. Written in Laney's point of view!
I have loved Corey for a long time now, but I didn't notice what was happening until it came crashing down on me.
We're in high-school now and everything was as normal as it can be. Not much have really changed. Same old one-sided crush. Same old band. I continued to think that until freshman year came.
Corey and I always walk to school together, but the morning I came to meet him, Trina said he already left. I was surprised because this was the first day of high-school, but continued to walk to the. I met up with Kin and Kon at the entrance.
"Laney! Let's go look for our classes together!" Kon called her over. He was as childish as ever, but in a cute little brother way. I ran over to the brothers with a smile.
"Hey, where's Corey? I thought you guys were walking together. You guys always did, just like in middle school." Kin asked, he was surprised as well.
"Uh, he left early so I walked here by myself. Don't worry about it though, he might just be really excited." I answered, but it sounded like I was trying to reassure myself.
We found the large board where everyone's homeroom classes were listed. A large group of people were already there but I wasn't concerned about my classes, I was concerned about Corey. After a minute of searching I found his usual orange beanie popping out of the sea of heads. He grew a lot taller now so it was easy. I was going to wave him over until Kin and Kon grabbed me and pulled me out of the crowd.
"Laney, we're in the same homeroom! How cool is that?" Kon said eagerly. He high-fived his brother and all that.
"What about Core?" I asked. Kin answered, "He's in the same class too." My heart soared for a second. I was suddenly pulled away by the brothers again.
"We have to get to the opening ceremony! Full speed ahead!" Kon said. He started making train sounds which threw me into a fit of giggles. Despite that however, it seemed he was trying to pull me away from something.
The opening ceremony began but all I did was search for that familiar orange beanie. I found it behind me, sitting next a stranger's curled blonde hair. His face was covered by someone else's head. I frowned a bit. The ceremony ended and we walked to our homeroom.
Kin and Kon was blocking my sight of him when we were in the hallways. "Laney why do you keep looking back? We need to hurry inside!" the told me nervously. Wait, nervously? It was now obvious they were trying to hide something from me. With a cat's speed and dexterity I maneuvered through the river of freshmen, leaving the brothers behind me.
Once the river thinned out considerably I finally had a clear view of Corey. He was definitely taller and his face was so much more mature now, but it still had a child-like touch. He now wore jeans instead of shorts and headphones around his neck. What shocked me the most was that he was talking with that blonde, curly headed girl. It wasn't the talking that set me off, it was the fact that he was blushing.
I finally realized that Corey was in love with a girl. That girl, wasn't me.
A rival comes in! Let's see how Laney will react to this and it seems like the brothers already knew about it!
