Quinn popped up, threw her napkin to the table and was ready to get her hands dirty and pick a fight

"Quinn sit!" Rocky raised her voice and commanded, Quinn obeyed and sat back down.

"I really didn't mean it"Tiffany said as if she was about to cry. I got up severely embarrassed and quickly exited the restaurant and walked outside to a graffiti filled wall and stayed there. Not only I was very embarrassed I couldn't stop thinking of what my ex did, I'm sure she was a nice person and she didn't mean it, when I found out he cheated she told me she had no clue my ex had a girlfriend. I say there for a long few minutes until I was greeted with Max's company

"Everyone was wondering where you were, are you alright?" Max asked as he walked closer to me.

"I'm alright I just needed to walk out." I said as he then sat next to me on the wall.

"What even happened in there with that girl ?" He asked as he turned his to look at me.

"Long story short, my ex cheated and left me for her." I said with a depressed shrug

"Oh." Max said with a long pause. He ten put his arm around me, I then felt more calm .

"Well, I don't know if I said this already but, I'm Max." He said trying to lighten up the mood, he then put his hand out for me to shake.

"I'm Carrie, but call me Cory." I said as I laughed a little while I shook his hand and he helped me up.

"There you are Carrie, are you ok ?" Zakk said as he sped over to me with the others behind him.

"I'm ok, I just needed a few minutes to chill out." I said with a reassuring smile.

"We should head back into the restaurant, it's kinda fucking creepy in this back ally." Quinn said as her and Ronnie started to walk back and the rest of us followed. We then reached the restaurant and proceeded back into our previous seats, except for me because where I was sitting is still sticky from the sprite that was spilled on top of my head

"I think I'm gonna call a cab home so I can shower." I said .

"I'll drive you home if you'd like, i'm finished eating anyways." Max politely asked. I then nodded and he proceeded to get out of his chair.

"When you're finished getting changed, me us at the movie theatre down the street."Ronnie added, we both nodded to his statement, then Max placed his money on the table. We both left the restaurant and proceeded to Max's car.

"Wait!" A women's voice trailed behind us repeatedly as we were walking. We both then turned and were greeted by Tiffany running towards us.

"I just wanted to say I'm really sorry, not just for this for everything. I didn't realise how much of an asshole Jake was to you, well actually to us. Like a few weeks after we started to officially date he started to cheat on me with someone else. I just feel really bad about everything that happened, and I just was thinking maybe we could put our past behind us and maybe be friends." Tiffany said almost crying. I then opened my phone, created s fresh new contact for her and handed her my phone.

"Text me anytime you need me, I'll be there." I said with a smile as she handed my phone back to me with her phone number on the screen.

"I'm really sorry for dropping that drink on you by the way." She said

"Its fine, I have to go now, we're catching a movie." I said as I was moving towards Max's car. I then walked into already opened car door waiting for me to enter. I then waved Tiffany goodbye and we drove off the parking lot
