I was hanging out with the band at the park like we usually did after a major gig when I got a random call. "Hold up guys. I got to take this." Corey got the twins to stop as I listened to the man on the other line. "Laney Penn?" "Yeah?" The guy sounded sad like he just found out some one died. Which in this case, some one did. "I'm sorry to say this but your father Lance Penn has gotten into a car accident." My eyes went wide, I almost dropped my phone and I stared directly to Corey in shock. "Is he okay?!" Corey then had his eyes in large with worry. "Lanes what's wrong?" "I'm sorry to say this to such a young girl but he didn't make it. I tried my best to save him. I'm sorry." That's when I dropped my phone and started to have tears in my eyes. "Lanes, What's wrong." I shut my eyes to hold back the tears in my eyes. "H-He's gone." Corey then gave me a worried look. "Who's gone Lanes? Tell me." I covered my eyes with my hands. "M-My dad." Even though I couldn't see Core, I could tell he had a shocked look on his face. "I-I got to get home." I ran off at this point. "Lanes! Lanes wait!" I didn't look back, not for Corey, not to pick up my phone, I just kept running. Hoping that the tears in my eyes would go away.

I'm starting to worry about Lanes. She's not her self any more. She stopped talking to the twins, stopped calling me Core, and she's been missing practice. That's not how Lanes is, she'll never miss practice, she always talked with the twins, and she always called me Core. I'm scared for her. I just hope she doesn't commit... No! I won't even think about that! Lanes is my best friend! I won't let her do that ever!Right then Lanes walked in but where's her bass? Her hair was messed up, she had no make up on, her clothes her messy and her eyes wear red and puffy. "Lanes! Wait, where's your bass and what's wrong with your eyes?" I frowned when I noticed she was trying to hide scars that wee on his wrist. "Corey, I'm, I'm quitting the band." I gave her shocked look along with the guys. "W-WHAT!?" I noticed she flinched a little. ALRIGHT SHE NEVER FLINCHED IN HER WHOLE LIFE I'M REALLY SCARED FOR HER NOW. "I'm sorry, but I have to quit. S-Sorry." I gave her worried eyes and grabbed her hand before she left. "If this is about your dad, you know I'll still be here for you Lanes. But, if you have to quit the band, then fine. But please talk to me Lanes." She tugged her hand away from me as I frowned. "See ya Corey."

It's been about a week since Lanes quit. I've been lucky enough to spent 30 minutes with her a week to make sure she's alright as the twins try to find a new bassist. Which I think is worthless. No one can replace my best friend, no one can replace my Lanes. Right now I was trying to find Lanes in her house. Her mom got a job to help them so Laney was all by her self.. Which scared me more with her in this state. "Lanes! Where are you?" I walked up to her room to hear crying. "Lanes?" "Leave me alone Corey." I frowned. "If you want me to leave you alone then come to me and the guys concert at the Major's party today. I promise I'll leave you alone then." I then heard a few sniffs. "Fine. I'll go." I tried to smile knowing that my plain to get Lanes back was getting to action, but I couldn't. "Great. See ya then Lanes." "See ya Corey."

I walked around the town square waiting for the guys to perform so I could leave. I wanted to go back home as fast as I could. I wanted to leave. I hated the amount of people around me, acting like everything is normal. "Thanks you everyone for attending my party! Now for the musical entertainment, Grojband!" I seen Corey walk up to the mic in front of him. "Thanks for the intro Mayor Mellow, I've wrote this song about my best friend Lanes. She recently lost her dad and that's been making her lose her self. I hope this song helps her." My eyes widen as the band started to perform.

You've got this new head filled up with smoke
I've got my veins all tangled close
To the jukebox bars you frequent
The safest place to hide
A long night spent with your most obvious weakness
You start shaking at the thought you are everything I want
'Cause you are everything I'm not

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

My inarticulate store bought hangover hobby kit
It talks, it says, "You, oh, you are so cool."
"Scissor shaped across the bed, you are red, violent red."
You hollow out my hungry eyes
You hollow out my hungry eyes

And we lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close (How close is close enough?)
We lay, we lay together just not
Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
I'll make damn sure that you can't ever leave
No, you won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me
You won't ever get too far from me (ever get too far)
You won't ever get too far...

I just wanna break you down so badly
Well I trip over everything you say
Well I just wanna break you down so badly
In the worst way (worst way)

I'm gonna make damn sure
I just wanna break you down so badly
I just wanna break you down so badly (damn sure)
In the worst way (worst way)

I had tears walled up in my eyes. I realized something then. As long as I have Core, I can take on anything.

Alright so that was a request from guitarguy12345, song was MakeDamnSure by Taking Back Sunday and the ship was Corney as you could guess. XD Any way stay musical my friends.
