[PART 1 - COMPLETED] Sallie Knight's life had been a tragedy, born under a bad star. When she moves to Iowa with her father and his cruel new wife, Sallie's life is at breaking point to the point she wants to end it. She finally finds an escape with her new, first job, LOVERS PLAYGROUND, a sex store at the edge of Des Moines. There, she meets her Supervisor, Corey Taylor, and while the pair start off with awkward conversations and bitter exchanges, their hatred for the world, for each other and their equal sense of tragedy and depression brought them closer.
Corey becomes Sallie's only escape from her cruel reality, and she becomes Corey's only escape in his dark thoughts and inner demons. When a friendship is formed, she finally meets IOWA, Corey's distraught latex mask he created when he is hired as the new singer for the small band called SlipKnoT, and immediately becomes attracted to it...

Hello!
Yeah, I've yeeted another story. This time all driven by my own thoughts. I've personally been having a bad time the last several weeks and needed an escape. And this is it. I've always wanted to write some sort of origin story involving my persona with Corey, and this was a fun and interesting start.
A very personal story to me that I wanted to share. It's going to be deep, not for the faint of heart and VERY dark. I do not wish to hold back, I'm just writing what comes to me.
As you know, with ALL Slipknot-related fanfics, these situations and characters are inspired by real events and real people, BUT DO NOT REFLECT them in anyway, shape or form. I am merely taking them and twisting it for fictional purposes. So please regard this as a fictional story created by a slipknot fan and an idiot that needed a way out of her mind.
All events and times and such are not true to the actual facts, just manipulated a little for the sake of a story, so it won't be truly dedicated to the history of Slipknot.
Thank you!

-sneak peak-
A silent moment falls between us and he stares at me intensely like a freakin weirdo.
I trace his jawline with my eyes, I look to his pretty mouth, his pretty pink plumped lips and then make eye contact with his pretty blue eyes.
He utters something. It was so low that it was almost incoherent.
I thought I heard the wrong thing, but nope.
I wasn't wrong in the slightest.
"Sophie?" He whispers as if the utter mention of that name burns his pretty mouth.
My heart stops at hearing that name.
That name.
That fucking name.
Only one person in this whole entire miserable world has ever called me that name.
Someone who made this miserable world much less miserable.
Suddenly all the unforbidden memories come crashing back. Memories I once tried so hard to forget.
I feel as if a tsunami of memories came rushing towards me, suffocating me and drowning me in all the blissful painful memories.
I start to remember everything.
I start to remember Lee.
