🌑Corinne POV🌑

We walked inside the gym.
The music was loud and beating, it felt like my heart was also beating along with the music.
I squeeze Caleb's hand "Afraid?" He asked, I nod mutely. I breathe in and out, I wipe my sweaty nervous hands on my dress.
"Do you know how to dance?" Caleb ask and I shook my head 'no'.

"Oh.. We could sit down and watch people dance if you want, we could .. Get to know each other and other stuff heh.." I looked at Caleb and smiled, he's so nice.

"I'm sorry for ruining prom for you.." I looked down, Caleb patted my head
"Ruining? You're not ruining anything.. Don't worry Cori"
My heart skipped a beat, the words kept replaying in my head..

Ruining? You're not ruining anything..
Don't worry Cori.

I looked at Caleb and hugged him
"Thanks.." I let go of him "Ima go find Lina, See ya" I waved goodbye and squeeze myself between the crowds.
I almost trip but, someone grabbed my dress gently and pull me back up

"That was close! Phew.. Wouldn't want to ruin the dress I bought you.. It cost like 50 dollars!" A familiar voice said cheerfully. I turned around and saw Lina "I was looking for you!" I smiled.

"I was looking for you too! Well I found you.. You should be with Caleb having the times of your life!" She slapped the back of my head lightly, I sighed.

"True, true.. Your right.. I should!"

"Do you like to sing?" Lina asked, tilting her head a bit

"W-Well.. U-U-Uhmm..." I stammered
"Yes.." I squeak.

"Their hosting a singing contest, the winner is prom queen or king. They updated the new prom thing.. It's called Sing Your Prom" Lina did jazz-hands at the end of the sentence
"You should sing! It would be wicked" Lina smiled happily
"Well.. Uhmm.. I'll think about it" I smiled and walked towards where Caleb and I was at.

I looked around and my eyes widen, I gasp. My body froze, I couldn't believe what I saw. Caleb was smiling with another girl.. He's winking at her.. He's flirting with her..
My stomach feels like it got turned upside down, I feel Ima throw up.
My heart and chest aches.. I feel like I blew up into many pieces.

I choked on air and coughed, what's worse is that I was in front of Caleb and his.. Girl. Their attention is immediately focused on me, Caleb looked at me when now concern and guilty eyes. I kept on coughing when, I recovered I stared at Caleb and the girl.
I put my right arm around my shoulder, it aches.. I took a good look at the girl.

The girl was Alyssa Dallas, she's rich, perfect, smart, popular, fashion model, good at singing, and has good fashion sense.. I could see why Caleb chose me over her. She also has blonde curly long hair and blue crystal eyes.. Caleb..

Wait, why do I care? I don't care about Caleb, he's just another stupid player..
I look at Caleb as our eyes locked, I quickly look away blinking back the tears that's forcing to burst out. I won't cry.. It's a sign of weakness.

I looked down and walked away from Caleb and Alyssa.

"Wait, Corinne! It's not what it looks like!" Caleb quickly grabbed my wrist,
"Oh really? Then, what does IT look like?" I said straightly and rudely, I shook Caleb's hand off my wrist.

Alyssa walked besides Caleb and smirked at me, She kissed Caleb cheek.. My heart felt like it broke in half..

"Leave me alone.. Please.." I look at Caleb as a tear escape, I quickly walked away wiping my tear.
