As soon as Trevor got back from his interview, the first person he saw as he entered the Tipton was Corrie. She was standing at the candy counter with Maddie. Trevor walked right up to her and pulled her aside.
"Corrie, we need to talk," he said.
"Sure, what's up?" she asked walking over to the couch with him.
They both sat down side by side.
"I wanted to ask you something," he said. "Well, more throw you an idea. So you know how I'm going to be going off to college," he started.
"Yeah," she said smiling.
Trevor smiled at her smiling. This was making it harder for him. "And I'll be living in the dorm so we probably won't see each other much."
The smile was wiped away from her face at that sentence. He was going to break up with her. She knew it. She knew Trevor didn't like her anyway. "Yeah," she responded, not looking at him but at her shoes. She didn't want him to see her cry.
Trevor bit his lip. He couldn't do it. The only reason he was going to was because he didn't know if he would meet someone else. "Hey," he symathetically said to Corrie, raising her head with his hand under her chin. He saw Corrie was nearly crying. She pulled her head away and looked the other way.
"I should go," she said. "I already know you're going to break up with me so I'll save you the guilt trip," she said, running to the elevator in tears.
"Corrie," he said softly. He wanted to go after her. He didn't want it to be over with her.
Maddie saw what happened and walked over to Trevor. "I can't believe you. You finally got together with her today and now you're breaking up with her?" she asked in more of a statement.
"Maddie, I'm leaving for college the day after tomorrow and ---" he started.
Maddie put her hand to his face. "I don't want to hear it," she said, walking back to the candy counter.
