• Tangled In Blue   Cross-roads

  CORBYN’S POVTorren won the talent show.The funny part is he wasn’t even supposed to be participating. He was simply standing in for Justin. Justin met with an unfortunate accident on his way to his school and couldn’t make it. He somehow tripped on the steps of his back door and sprained his ankle and fractured his arm. Guess it was the excitement or something.Justin and Kyle were convinced that he was the real deal and were very surprised that his victory wasn’t even planned. But I’m sure none of us were as shocked as the man himself.The prom dance followed. Jake ended up being Zara’s date and they seemed to be giving. For her sake I hoped it worked out, Jake was a good guy. I ended up taking Terrel since Justin was indisposed.We walked in the door and took in the crowded party. People milled around the gym chatting and talking while music blared in the background. A few couples were headed

• Tangled In Blue   Foolish

  CORBYN’S POVEveryone is going on about the prom... Except me.I had zero interest and zero excitement.I was actually planning on not going, sadly I had to. Zara kept hinting that she didn’t have a date but I played dumb and didn’t take the bait. I had told her countless times that I wasn’t going but offered to ask an equally dateless Torren to escort her. Although we all knew why Torren chose to ride solo-he wanted to be free to sow his wild oats, but not in any particular garden if you get my drift.Before you jump down my throat concerning Zara; I had told her that we couldn’t be more than friends as gently as I could. For various reasons, namely- I wasn’t over Blue-I doubt I ever will be-my music career was my and college were my primary focus right now. I had no time to nurture a budding romance or any other kind for that matter.“So who are you taking to the prom?” Zara gave me

  CORBYN’S POVI paced up and down the private parking area just outside the Principal’s office as I waited for Kyle to arrive. My groan was inaudible as it echoed in my mind. I closed my eyes, then opened them again.A couple of moments ago, I was caught by a self-righteous teacher in a very compromising position while I was relieving myself in the bathroom. I was totally innocent of any wrongdoing by the way, but it didn’t seem that way when he walked in.The teacher had dragged us straight to the Head and called our parents. My mother was on call at the hospital and my dad wasn’t reachable-but even if he was he I doubt very much he would have shown up. Which left me with Kyle and Maya, since they were my current guardians.Why did this happen just before graduation? My heart lurched in tandem with my stomach. What would Kyle’s reaction be?I spotted his sleek black Mustang pulling

• Tangled In Blue   Remember

  CORBYN’S POVDays passed slowly but to me, every day seemed to be the same. Graduation was a few weeks away and so was the Talent Show. I was no longer taking part for obvious reasons, so Jordan and Kyle appointed me as their spokesperson. That way they avoided coming to the school and the hysteria that accompanied it. I think they were totally eluding the puking and the piercing screams.I still hadn’t heard from Blue but Maya and Terrel had been in contact with her. The trial was underway in Arizona and not her in San Francisco, reason being the crime was committed there and not here.They say time is a healer, but I don’t think that applied to me.Ever since Blue left, my heart was shattered. Still in tatters.I don’t know if Whitney ever found out where broken hearts went but right now I think they just suffered in silence. With nowhere to go, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.You see, when Blue le

  CORBYN’S POV“She’s gone,” I told Justin when we sat in the quad at lunchtime.“What do you mean she’s gone? She couldn’t have just disappeared,” he replied with a deep frown.“Dude, her house is empty. She’s gone,” I reiterated.“You mean empty like she’s moved out?”“Yeah.” I leaned back on the oak tree that we were sitting under and blew out a long breath, raising my knee. “She didn’t even say goodbye, man.”“I’m sorry CC,” Justin said. “I know how much you care about her.”“But-clearly she doesn’t feel the same way,” I muttered.“She probably had her reasons.”I got up and dusted my jeans. “I’m going to ask Mrs. Bell. She must know something.”“Maybe she doesn’t want to be found CC. You need t

  CORBYN’S POVBlue has been avoiding me.The last time I saw her was the day of her interview with the attorney. She wasn’t herself after that.I tried to-wanted to be there for her but she wouldn’t let me. She kept pushing me away-shutting me out. I couldn’t understand why but I had a rough idea. She thought she was doing the right thing. She must have thought that I wouldn’t want to be with her after the ugly truth of her past came out, but she couldn’t be more wrong.I loved her just the way she was-all of her. The good, the bad, and the not so good. She has flaws but it didn’t make me love her any less.She still attended rehearsal and would disappear straight after. Every time I went to her house I wouldn’t get a response whenever I knocked on the door. It’s either she wasn’t there or she just didn’t want to see me.Today is Friday, the Spring Dance is on
