Corney

Crushed

Laney's POV

Marisa was making us have regular band practice for the rest of the week before we left to go on tour. So we were all practicing in Core's groj like usual. After practice Kin and Kon approached Lauren Core and i.
"Hey guys we were all planning to go out to lunch together we were wondering if you wanted to come," kin said.
"Sure why not?" I said.
"I've got something else to do," Lauren said.
"Me too," Corey said.
"O-k your loss we're going to belchies," Kon said.
"Have fun," Lauren said staying in Corey's groj as we left.

Corey's POV

"Soooo..." Lauren said "are we planning on doing something while we're here or do you just want to talk?" She asked.
"I dunno we've got a lot to talk about," I said.
"True with the engagement and everything," she said. "So are we going to tell them tomorrow? Since most people when they get engaged freak out and tell the entire world."
"I don't know about that," i said.
"Well they gotta know soon or they're gonna find out anyway," she argued.
"But what are they going to say?"
"We get to find out," she countered.
"What about Laney she's had a crush on me forever what if she doesn't take it well?" I asked.
"She will understand she's one of our best friends, she will be upset and she will find out eventually."
"I don't want to hurt my friends feelings!" I said.
"Well clearly it's ok to hurt mine because I'm offended you couldn't care less about what I have to say!" She yelled again.
"We shouldn't have to tell them immediately though," i said.
"Well it's okay if you want us to have a little secret wedding and not invite our friends I'm just fine with that!" She threw her hands up in the air.
"We don't need to rush things they're going to find out soon enough!" I yelled.
"Well clearly if we aren't going to tell anyone then it might as well not even happen!!!" Lauren ripped the ring off her finger and threw it across the room. "maybe im wrong, but it's not worth it anymore," She stormed off.

Lauren's POV

I ran outside and I stood out on the front porch not knowing which way to go. I just kept running in the rain down my street and stupidly kept going until I reached the recording studio across town without stopping to be greeted by Marisa.
"Hey Lauren I was just about to close up but we can stay open if you want?" She said.
"Yeah sure can I just talk to you for a bit?" I said.
"Sure what's wrong?" She asked as I walked in.
"Just personal issues can i tell you and you not tell anyone in the band?" I asked.
"Sure I want you to trust me the way you trusted Lizzie,"
"'Kay great it's kinda long,"
"Say whatever you want to say," she shrugged.
"ok so first things first, this is what cause the issue, so Corey and i got engaged," i started.
"oh well thats great Laney would be so jealous." Marisa said.
"Thats what he said, and i said it didn't matter she was or friend and she would continue to support us she has a heart and thats what she'd want be to do if it happened to her,"
"good point," she nodded.
"and then we got into this huge fight," i continued.
"oh," she said biting her lip.
"and then i threw the ring at him and stormed out and ran here i don't knowing he tried to follow me or not but i do know i can run faster," i ffinished
"oh well it must have been a big fight," Marisa exclaimed.
"yeah and now i don't know what to do about it. Its not like i can avoid him he's every where i go,"
"try sending him a text," she suggested.
"yeah but what am i suppose to say? "Im sorry I threw a ring at you and stormed off"? that wouldn't work, and I wouldn't know what to say face to face either,"
"That would sound dumb how about go back to his house and try to act natural like you never got engaged and you never threw the ring at you," she suggested.
"I can try but what if he brings it up? which he has to," i rolled my eyes.
"Then apologize and talk about it like a civilized person,"
"Which i am," i said heading towards the door grinning. "thanks so much!" I said running toward my house across town but I was willing to make the run. If I was gonna do this i was going to make sure I didn't look soaked and like I was just crying for the past hour. I stopped at my house to re-curl my hair, change my outfit and fix my makeup. I didn't want to look like crap even though I still didn't look great. I threw on a white sweater, dark ripped jeans, and high heeled ankle boots. I ran back over to his house and braced myself for the break-up of my life.
