Amber screamed. She couldn't help it. She didn't know how else to react to news like that. Tammy put her hand over her mouth quickly. "Amber stop it! Please stop it!" Amber stops screaming and Tammy takes her hand off her mouth.
"What do you mean you killed him?" Amber cried. She was in shock. The whole thing was unbelievable. Corny wad dead and Tammy killed him! She hoped this was all just some bad dream she was having and her mom would come in to wake her up at any minute now.
"It was an accident. I didn't mean to do it." She said crying.
"What happened Tammy?"
"Come on my car is parked around the corner." She said grabbing Amber's arm. She pulled back and looked at Tammy. "I'm not going with you until you tell me what happened"
"I'll tell you in the car I promise." She said and started off. Amber followed her. She was really terrified not that she thought Tammy would hurt her but she was scared about what Tammy wanted her to do. They got inside of Tammy's car and she pulled off. They drove for a couple of minutes in silence.
"Tammy, can you please tell me what happened?"
"Do you really want to know?" She asked
"Yes I really want to know what possessed you to kill Corny," She said crying. She still couldn't believe he was dead and Tammy was the one who killed him.
"I didn't go over there to kill him Amber!" She exclaimed.
"Go where? To his house? You went to his house?"
"Why are you so shocked? You went over there before!"
"What are you talking about? I've never been to Corny's house."
"Yes you have. You told everyone that you and Corny got together on numerous occasions. Unless you guys just did it in his dressing room!"
"What?" Amber asked confused.
"Don't tell me you forgot what you told me, Luanne, and pretty much anyone else who would listen!"
Amber remembered when she bragged to the rest of the girls about getting with Corny but it wasn't true. She had lied about it because of Brenda. There were rumors that Corny was the father of Brenda's baby and even though that sounded horrible a lot of the girls considered Brenda lucky to have slept with a gorgeous older man. Amber didn't know if they Corny and Brenda rumors were true but everyone else seemed to think they were. One day when a couple of the girls were talking about it she blurted out. "Big deal! I was with Corny long before Brenda was. I just wasn't dumb enough to get pregnant." Then the attention was back on her like it was supposed to be. No one cared or talked about Brenda anymore but now Amber regretted it, although it didn't make sense. Why would Tammy kill him because of that?
"You did this because you thought I was with Corny?"
"No, that's not why. I told you it was an accident."
"What exactly happened Tammy because I'm not understand this at all." Tammy kept her eyes on the road and started to explain. "Okay, here's what happened…"
(Flashback)
Tammy walked into his house. The door was unlocked for some reason but to her that was good news. She could surprise him and show him how good she could be for him. She would be better then Brenda or Amber. He would fall madly in love with her and keep her around unlike them. She didn't see him in the living room and headed for his bedroom but she didn't see him there either. She didn't know where he could be but she figured it was for the best she didn't just walk up on him. Tammy took off her blouse and then proceeded to take off her skirt. She went into his closet and pulled a shirt off the hanger and put it on. She heard the front door open and close back. She heard his footsteps head towards another direction. She went and peeked out from behind the door. He was in the small kitchen area looking in the refrigerator for something. She moved back and sat on the side of the bed. She waited patiently until he finally walked into the bedroom. He jumped when he noticed her sitting there.
"Tammy, what are you doing here? You scared me half to death" She stood up and walked towards him. "Hi Corny I've been waiting for you." She said seductively.
"Tammy what are you doing?" He asked looking her up and down.
"Come on Corny I think you know by now." She said and started to unbutton her shirt. "Tammy, stop it." He said sternly but she wasn't listening to him. She finished unbuttoning the shirt and let it slip off her shoulders and to the floor. She was wearing nothing but a black lacey bra and matching panties. She knew he liked what he saw because of the way he was looking at her. She moved closer to him and put her arms around his neck. "Corny I love you and I want you to be my first and only. Make love to me Corny." She puckered her lips to kiss him but he stepped back.
"Tammy, you need to get out of here. Right now!" he said.
"Come on you know you want me!" She said and put her hands on the sides of his face and quickly pressed her lips against his. He pulled her back angrily. "What is wrong with you? Are you crazy?" He screamed at her. Tammy was suddenly furious. "What's wrong? I'm not good enough for you?"
"Tammy you are too young for me. You are a nice girl but you need to find a guy your own age." He said trying to be nice to her. She was upset that he called her a girl. She didn't want to be a girl to him she wanted to be his woman.
"I'm too young for you? What about Amber? She's my age you know!"
"What are you talking about?" He asked her confused.
"You know what I'm talking about. Now come on. I can be better then her or any other woman you've ever been with." She said putting on her seductive voice again and then reaching for his pants. He steps back again. "Tammy, put on your clothes and get out of here!"
"No! I'm not going anywhere until I get what I want!" She said and attempted to kiss him again. He pulled her away again this time pushing her down. She hit the floor and her head hit the side of the bed. It didn't hurt but she was still shocked. "What's wrong with you?" She asked him.
"Me? What is wrong with you, Tammy? Why don't you just get out of here and we'll forget this ever happened, okay?"
"I don't think so! You want me Corny and I want you! So let's just give in to our desires!" She said getting up.
"You're acting crazy Tammy. I think it's best you left and as a matter of fact you shouldn't be on the council anymore either. You just tell everyone you quit. If you show up tomorrow, I'll be forced to tell everyone the truth and you will be fired anyway."
Tammy was upset being on the council meant everything to her and he was trying to take that away from her! She wasn't going to let him do that. With out the show she didn't have anything. All of her friends were on the show and it's what she was popular for. It hurt more then him turning her down!
"Please let me stay on the show Corny. You don't know how much it means to me!" She cried.
"I'm sorry Tammy. I can't not after this."
"Fine! But I'm going to tell Velma and Mr. Sprtizer that you invited me here and wanted me to sleep with you but I was the one who said no! Then you'll be fired!" She threatened but to her surprise her threat didn't seem to scare Corny at all. He just smiled at her. "That's fine you can talk to Velma when I get through talking to her about you." He said and went to the phone. She tried to pull the phone away from him.
"No! You can't do this to me! You bastard!" She said. He pushed her down again. "Just stop it Tammy! You are really pathetic you know that!" He said and went to the living room to make the call. She followed him.
"No please don't do it! Please don't tell Velma on me! She won't let me be friends with Amber anymore!"
"You should have thought of that before!" He said picking up the phone and dialing the number. She quickly picked up the lamp and smashed it against his head. He went down by her feet hitting the coffee table on his way down. She quickly hung up the phone. She breathed in and out quickly. Corny was lying there lifeless. She was sure he was just knocked out and maybe with her luck he would wake up with amnesia.
"Corny!" She called out but of course he didn't answer. She reached down and put her fingers by his neck to feel his pulse but didn't get one. No, it couldn't be! He couldn't be dead! She shook him frantically. "Corny wake up! Please wake up! I'm so sorry!" She said but got no answer. He was dead and she killed him!
(End flashback)
"Then I grabbed my clothes and ran out of there." Tammy concluded.
"Oh my god! Tammy what were you thinking?" Amber said crying.
"I didn't mean to but I didn't want him to call your mom and get me fired!"
"Well it's too late for that now! You have to turn yourself in!"
"No Amber. That's why you are here. I need your help." Tammy said calmly.
"My help with what?" Amber asked her.
"You'll see" was all Tammy said. Amber had a bad feeling she wasn't going to like what Tammy had planned for them and she also had a feeling that things will never be the same again.
