Torn at the Seams | a Grojband fanfiction

Chapter 4 | Most Hated Rival

Corey's POV
A faint, and familiar sound startled me. It seemed to be coming from behind my back. What was it? I felt determined to find out. The sound rang through my ears, and it didn't stop. I also started to pick up the sound of foot steps coming towards me. It was making me squirm in my seat.

I froze when a voice spoke. A recognizable voice. C-Carrie?

My suspicions were confirmed when she walked into my view. "Riffin." she said coldly. I tried to talk, but my words were only muffled up. Carrie glared at me. "I can't understand a word you're saying." she snarled. I sighed despite the tape and glared back into her eyes.

Carrie saw the look in my eyes and stood there nervously. "Fine, but don't expect anyone else here to do this to you..." she muttered, but I heard it as she came closer and took the tape off my mouth. Carrie folded her arms and looked at me, waiting for me to speak. "Why did you kidnap me?" I snapped. Her expression turned into a surprised one.

"Me?" Carrie said, pointing at herself. "I swear, I didn't do it!" she cried. My anger softened when I noticed how serious Carrie was. She seemed afraid of my anger. In fact, there was a hint of pity written in her eyes. She really isn't lying...

There was a moment of silence between us, before I heard the sound of a bleat. It wasn't from Carrie, but from behind me. Was that my phone?!

Carrie's POV
There was a bleat from Riffin's phone. I had the urge to give it to him, show him the notifications. Even just untie him already! It was just seeing him like this... seeing him sad and suffering when he seemed to be upbeat and carefree all the time, didn't make everything feel right around him. I'm supposed to follow orders and not disobey them, but I was doing the opposite. Even worse, for my most hated rival.

What was with me today?
