As soon as the car stopped in my driveway, from dropping off the girls, I unlocked the door to my house, and walked inside.

My parents were out for dinner, so I wouldn't have to worry about them for another thirty minutes or so.

I ran up the stairs and into my room, wasting no time dialing Corey's number. I went through what I was going to say when he answered, as the phone rang.

"Hello?" Corey spoke.

"Tell me the truth." I got straight to the point.

"Brinleigh?" He questioned.

"Yes, who else." I rolled my eyes. "We're you actually babysitting, or what?"

"Brinleigh-" He wined.

"No, tell me the truth." Corey sighed. A few moments later he spoke.

"Okay, I wasn't babysitting. I just didn't want to go to the lake with you, but I didn't know how to tell you."

"Corey-" I softly said. "You could've told me no, I would've been fine with it. Why did you want to go?"

"Uh, I'm n-not sure." He stuttered.

"Bullshit! Tell me." I was getting irritated.

"I can't tell you." He said.

"You're not cheating on me are you?" My heart started to quicken it's pace.

"No! Never, I'm not like that." He told me.

"Then, what's the problem?"

"I-" He started and paused. "I just don't  think that this is working out." My heart stopped.

"What's not working out?" I didn't want to believe what he was saying.

"Us, our relationship." He quietly said.

"Why would you think that?" I asked.

"I just- I just think that I lost feeling for you, ya know?" He tried to get me to relate.

"No, I don't know. I thought that we were doing just fine. How long has this been going on?" I asked.

"A few weeks." He sighed.

"So, I've been basically the only one in this relationship for weeks, now? You just acted like you liked me?" I was starting to get emotional.

"No, Brin. Please don't cry babe-"

"Babe? Don't even call me that! You don't have feelings for me, remember?" I said.

"It's not like that! I still like you, just a lot less then I did when we started dating- Wait! No! I didn't mean for it to sound like that!" He panicked.

"Okay, well I'll just do us both the favor and go ahead and end things." I angrily said.

"Brin-"

"Goodbye Corey." I said and hung up the phone.

I laid down in my bed, sobbing. Corey, was a special person to me. I liked him a hell of a a lot more than he knew, and I got heartbroken. Even though we've only been dating for about two months, he still meant a lot to me.

I vowed to myself that night that I would never get back with him, ever again.
