ELIZABETHS POV
Me and Troy were laughing and we both had no idea. "Why are we laughing?" I asked between laughs.
"I have no idea." Troy replied still laughing. We were both staring at each other then we cracked up for no reason, it was stupid. Troy stopped laughing first.
"I'm going to go get a drink." He was about to walk away when I grabbed his hand.
"Don't.., I just want to stay here with you." I smiled and he smiled back. I wasn't sure how those words escaped my mouth but I was sure of one thing, I had started fallen for Troy.
"You're always going to be with me." I hugged him after he said that then I let him go when I remembered the real reason I was here, for Sally, to apologize to her.
"Have you seen Cory?"
"I'm guessing he's with Ally."
That hurt, but not so much. It was supposed to hurt more than this but for some reason it didn't.
"Oh..."
"I don't know where they are though."
"Maybe he's eating something."
"Cory won't be eating."
"Why not?" It took a while before Troy answered, then it was as if he made up his mind to tell me.
"He's anorexic."
What? Anorexia was a serious mental illness. I thought only girls did things like that.
"Liz you're spacing out."
Before I could reply Troy, Terry approached us. 'Not this girl again!'
"Hey you two." She greeted smiling,
"Have you seen Cory?" Me and Troy asked at the same time, we both looked at each other and my face was becoming red. Terry looked at us with a weird look on her face then she brushed it off by smiling.
"Maybe he's in a room with Sally."
"What do you mean?" I stated, anger clearly present in my tone.
"Oh the kiss, you guys didn't see that?" Troy snaked his head. 'What was Terry talking about?' Terry smirked then continued.
"You guys should have seen it, everyone saw it, or I thought everyone did." The smirk on her face grew wider, Troy smiled too. Terry stopped smiling then gasped as if she just remembered something.
"Oh I forgot, you like Cory don't you?"
Troys smile disappeared, he looked at me as if for confirmation. I started shaking my head in disapproval but guilty was all over my face and all of a sudden I lost my voice, I couldn't say anything.
"I...I...I..." I tried to avoid Troy's thunderous stare, it had mixed feelings of sadness and anger, it was mostly anger.
"You like Cory?"
"I did but..."
"All this time you liked Cory?" Troy didn't let me finish.
"I'm sorry." That was all I could say, nothing else came out that was it. I'm guilty. Troy shook his head in pity and walked away.
I like Cory but I like you more.
Tears rolled down, I looked at Terry who was smiling like she won something like a trophy. I wanted to slap her but I couldn't. I was too broken to do so. I bit my bottom lip and walked away to dry my tears.
CORYS POV
I'm sitting on a chair at my families restaurant. It's Saturday morning, we're not open because people don't usually start coming till late in the afternoon. The place would be stacked with people by then.
I clenched my fist tightly together, I'm still thinking about last night and Sally. I can't believe that I was such an idiot, liking a girl who was clearly in love with my best friend, that's just bad luck. The door opened.
"We're closed!" I yelled in frustration.
"I know that."
I know that voice, I looked up to see who just walked in. I wasn't wrong, it was Elizabeth, she sat besides me.
'What was she doing here?' I thought.
"How did you know I'll be here?"
"I know that this is going to sound funny and unbelievable but... I has a crush on you so I always asked a lot of questions about you."
I looked at Elizabeth, I was shocked beyond words but knowing that someone liked me made me feel better.
"That's not funny." I simply said as a reply.
"You're right. But you know what is?" She asked, I was really interested I. This conversation.
"What?"
"The fact that you're anorexic and your parents own a restaurant." I scoffed.
"Did your boyfriend tell you that?"
Terry had really started to hit my nerves.
"I don't have a boyfriend."
That also shocked me. I'm guessed I wasn't the only one who had a bad night. Elizabeth started crying.
When I saw her tears all I wanted to do was hold her, heal her broken heart and tell her that it was going to be okay. I never thought I'd feel this way towards her, I think I'm fallen for her.
SALLYS POV
"The party was a disaster but that's what I wanted right... Right?!" I asked myself over and over again.
"I'm going crazy! I'm talking to myself! Cory! Why do I feel like this? This is all Elizabeth's fault, if she wasn't, if she didn't... Ugh! If she didn't exist!" I used my fist to hit the wall in my bedroom.
"Ow!" I exclaimed.
"Why is this happening to me?!" I yelled. I scattered my hair and gritted my teeth. I sat on the bed, laid down, sat up and stood up again. I did this over and over for like three times.
When I stood up again, I scattered my hair even more. I walked to and fro my room as if I was searching for answers, waiting for an idea to hit me. I closed my eyes and used my hands to hit the wall again.
"O...ow?"
I looked up and opened my eyes, I didn't hit a wall, I hit someone. I hit Troy and oh boy did it want to do it again...
