Okay, so maybe Corey fucked up.
"Corey! What are you doing?" Kin shouts as Laney walks out. The look of stress and anger is evident on his red face, making him wince. Getting Kin mad wasn't part of Carrie's plan. It's not like she really cared, though. Carrie gets what she wants when she wants it. Who was Corey to not comply with her?
Corey shrugs. "Carrie asked me to do it."
"So you just do it?"
Corey shrugs again. "She's my girlfriend. What was I supposed to do?"
Kon laughs sharply. "Maybe say no?"
Corey scoffs, crossing his arms passive aggressively. "Excuse me? You're dating Trina, of all people, you should be able to understand. I put my girlfriend first. End of conversation."
As Corey looks away to go find Carrie, he realizes how much attention they've caught. Practically everyone is staring at the bunch, with the exception of those making out against the wall or doing something entirely different, which Corey thought was a bit cliche. Of course, it's a high school party, but really? Dry humping on a wall isn't really original.
Anyway, he stalks off, leaving the twins to walk home. They're a bunch of traitors, and Corey doesn't need that. And, well, they'll probably end up making up tomorrow or the day after, but that's beside the point.

Laney opens the door, sighing as she realizes her mom isn't home yet.
She's always been quite a drunk, but it wasn't bad. Laney's always been there for her the day after, when she's all over the place, barfing and moaning in pain.
She walks up to her room, grabbing a pair of pajamas to change into before realizing her hair is drenched in punch and she needs to take a shower before it gets even more sticky than it already is.
Stripping off her clothes, she steps into the shower, sighing in content. There may be some of the biggest assholes in her school, but at least she has friends online to keep her company, as well as her family and aunt Maggie.
Glancing at her arms, she sniffs, running her fingers over the fresh wounds. She shakes her head. She won't cut tonight. She won't.
And if she breaks that promise after she's done with her shower, no one has to know.
