Breaking Us in Two

On Monday, Corrine felt horrible and didn't want to go to school, but Nana forced her. She knew what her classmates would say. All her friends that are girls hate Craig and now their relationship was out in the open and over. She wanted to say that she forgave Craig, but seeing him kiss one of her bestfriends' is not forgivable in anyone's book.
Corrine drove up to the parking lot and went inside. Marco ran up to her. "Corrine, are you okay, you seem stressed."
"Wouldn't anyone be stressed if you saw your boyfriend who you love very much kiss your bestfriend who also happens to be his ex-girlfriend."
"Craig happens to mess just this once."
"Just this once? JUST THIS ONCE?! He cheated on his girlfriend before, how do I know he won't do it again."
"Cor, you're overreacting."
"Overreacting or just telling the truth? How can I have been SO stupid to have trusted him?" Corrine stepped into MI Lab and sat alone at the back on the end of the table.
"How come you didn't tell me?" Corrine looked up to see Paige glaring at her.
"Tell you about what?"
"About Craig and you, that's what. How can you fall for such a horrible person?"
"Shut Up Paige! Craig is NOT a horrible person, you're the horrible person." Corrine looked back to her computer screen.
"Me? What about Ashley and Craig kissing in the hall last week."
"Paige just leave it, we're history like you went. So would you just stop making me feel bad and go give someone a fashion ticket now?"
"You know, I feel sad for you because you don't have friends who actually care for you unlike how I did. Hollywood girls are so corrupted." Paige walked to the side and sat with Hazel whispering to her. A single tear fell from Corrine's eye. She quickly wiped it away so no one would see that she was cracking under pressure already.
The lunch bell rang and Corrine sat across from Emma who was the only one who was talking to her. "Corrine, Craig's a-"
"Please Em, not right now. I'm not in the mood for acting like a selfish brat to anyone anymore.
"Fine, but just to warn you, Craig's coming this way." Emma stood from the table, threw away her food and left to go outside. Corrine tried to do the same, but Craig caught up to her and held her by her shoulders making her sit back down.
"Corrine please for-"
"Craig, stop. I thought I loved you, but I didn't and you obviously don't love me so can we just leave it at that and say we'll never speak to each other again like I know will happen." Corrine's vision was starting to get blurry when she stood up and walked to the girls' washroom.
Craig came home from school with his band and went into the garage. After about an hour of practicing, his band left him. He felt so bad. He felt so horrible and something popped into his head. It was the beginning of his plan to get Corrine back.
After school, Corrine sat on the toilet sit in her bathroom with a razor in hand. She took it in her other hand and took a deep breath. The blood started to flow from her wrist. She couldn't believe how beautiful her red blood looked against her skin. Corrine loved it; she felt the pain that was boiling inside her lifted from her shoulders. "Corrine, I need to talk to you!" It was her father and Corrine guessed that Stella was with him. She quickly washed the blade and placed it behind the toilet.
"Corrine we have good news," her father said as Corrine came down the stairs. "As you know, Stella and I are getting married and we would like you as the maid of honor." Corrine would've rather barfed then be the maid of honor. "And since Stella's going to live with us, I plan to move us to London." Corrine felt dizzy; London was so far from Canada and her friends or what was left of them.
