My Prophet
Grieving
"Corrie get the fuck up!" Keenan yelled hitting me with a pillow. I groaned, and covered my ears with my hands.
"Let me wallow in my own sadness." I rolled over in my bed.
"It's been a day since Mr. Rockstar left, are you really going to spend two months moping around until he comes back?" He said sitting next to me.
"Yes." I said, feeling tears come to my eyes when I thought of Andy.
"Corrie three weeks ago you hated him, and now your laying in bed crying cause he isn't here! Are you even dating? I saw that kiss!" He said poking me in the side. I curled tighter in a ball at his touch.
"No, we decided that we would get together when he comes back." I said clutching to Andy's dog tags.
"I don't mean to sound like a jerk but how are you going to handle dating him? He's a rockstar, his job is basically done on the road! He's never going to be here." Keenan said, and I rolled over to look up at him.
"I don't know, Keen." I said shaking my head.
"It's not like you can go on tour with him." Keenan played with a strand of my hair.
"I can during the summer." I said thinking of the conversation Andy, and I had on the phone last night.
"You know during the summer I can come on tour with you." I said into the phone.
Andy gasped, "Really!?" He said excitedly.
"Yeah, I get a three month break from dance over the summer." I smiled.
"You can come on Warped Tour with me! This is perfect, we'll be able to go to prom together, and I can show you off!" I could practically hear his smile through the phone.
"Prom?" I asked.
"Yeah Warped always has a prom during tour, and you can be my date! This is going to be perfect." He said, and I laughed.
"That's sounds great." I said.
"Is it a date then?" He asked in fancy voice.
"Yes Andy." I shook my head.
"Hello earth to Corrie!" Keenan snapped his fingers in front of my face.
"Huh!?" I said getting lost in my memories.
"I said that's a long time from now, it's the beginning of September Isn't he going over seas soon or something?" He asked.
I sighed sadly, remembering that a few months after Andy got back he would have to go over to Europe for a month. I put a pillow over my face, and heard Keenan laugh.
"This is so hard." I groaned, my voice muffled by the fabric in my mouth.
"I know, Cor. That's why we're going to do soemthing fun today!" He exclaimed.
"What?" I rolled my eyes, wanting to just text Andy all day.
"We're going shopping!" He said excitedly, "Now go get dressed!"
I obliged knowing there was no way around this, and got out of my bed. I picked out a pair of Capri pants, and a breezy black tank top. I changed, and did my makeup quickly. Once I walked out of the bathroom I grabbed my phone, that Keenan had left on my bed. He took it from me last night so I would stop texting Andy, and pay attention to the movie we were watching.
There were 82 new messages from Andy, and I smiled when I opened one, and saw a picuture of him making a puppy dog face, with the caption 'I miss you so much already.'
A lot of them were from Ashley and CC who must have taken Andy's phone. Some of them read:
Andy Love: Andy is snoring.
Andy Love: He made us watch Batman.
Andy Love: This is Ash by the way.
Andy Love: And CC damnit!
Andy Love: Andy just said your name in his sleep.
Andy Love: We're going to draw something on his face.
Andy Love: Ashley and CC drew something on my face!:(
I laughed at them all, and opened the one after that. It was a picture of Andy with a poorly drawn penis sharpied on his forehead. I opened up a new message and wrote:
Sorry I didn't reply, Keenan took my phone:( And don't worry about the penis babe, you still look sexy.
I slid my phone in my pocket, and walked out to the living room where Keenan was seated on the couch.
"Ready?" He asked.
"Yeah." I smiled, and we walked out of our apartment, laughing as usual.
Notes
Corrie misses Andy:,( but at least she has Keenan to keep her company!

I know the feeling. My stories from two years ago on here are just cringe-worthy in my opinion. But I definitely can relate to the your main character already just because of the the dance aspect. Kind of reminds me of my series "The Mortician's Daughter/Lost It All" and "Wretched and Divine/Ohio Is For Lovers" Those two series are dance related which are my favorite types of stories to write
