**Corilia (Cor/**ey and Em/**ilia)** is a semi-canon pairing between Corey and Emilia.

## Relationship

The fact that the two each have completely different or opposite interests (with Corey liking sports and physical activities unlike Emilia) and giving each other a rather amateurish first impression, the two's relationship kicks off with a rocky start. Corey and Emilia's relationship soon blossomed.

However, despite their mutual feelings towards each other throughout the series, there are some occasions where they both are misunderstood or easily get into a constant bickering or argument. This was evident when Corey angrily asked Emilia why she thought of him not fit to be his friend after reading her diary and started to avoid her, which almost made him lose his feelings towards her and when Corey scolded Emilia for yelling at Harry because of the money he lost, causing everyone (except Alex) to turn against her, although they eventually made up at the end.

## Synopsis

### Healthy Pretty Girls: Diet

Emilia first met Corey when Corey spotted Mia and Emilia sitting down and not exercising. He then told them to exercise.

### Style With Substance: Savvy

Corey was paired up with Emilia as Iris' models.

### Season of Blossoms: Growing Up

Emilia blushed when she handed Corey Mia's birthday invitation while he thanked her. He also pat her on the head when he had to leave.

### More Than Friends: Feelings

With the situation revolving around Carly's romantic relationship with Jacob, it was soon a topic discussed among Candy JEM and Corey and Charles, as the crew dragged Charles along with them to learn more about the two schoolmates. Emilia then suggested to ignore the situation, saying that they have no business poking their noses into other people's personal interests. Corey soon brought up his point of view, assuming that Carly and Jacob might just be close friends and they had viewed it from a wrong angle, then pointed out that him and Emilia are such friends, causing Emilia to blush. When Emilia described on how fortunate she is for having Corey as a friend, their moment got interrupted as Joni sarcastically stated their happiness for them.

Claimed by Carly, Corey and Emilia are one of the popular pairings in their school since they exchange their diaries for the latter to read, and the fact that their friendship is so close that the two does not kept any secrets from each other.

### Athletic Ace: Sports

Yet again, soon after patching up with one another, a series of arguments and disagreements hit the pair. This was shown when Emilia had joined Corey and Vani for practice. She ended up arriving late and was told to warm up before they started. Emilia claimed to have already exercised since she ran all the way from tuition to the area. However, it was not enough and she was soon left behind as the others were way ahead of her. Being unable to catch up, she was slowly out of breath and energy and she fell. She had sprained an ankle. She told the group that they could carry on but Corey stayed and insisted that he bandage her wound. He carried her on his back to a bench. There, things started to get kind of unstable as Corey requested Emilia not to see him after trainings and not to care for him anymore. Both of them were affected by this as it can be shown that both still conveyed feelings of care and affection towards one another but did not want to reveal it. But the still made up nevertheless, because of their worry toward one another.

* **Question:** Besides focusing on sports, you've been studying hard recently. What caused this sudden change?
	+ **Corey's answer:** Studying is every student's priority. We don't study to please others; we study for our future. Emilia keeps reminding me of this.
* **Question:** Describe Emilia.
	+ **Corey's answer:** She's serious but has a warm and understanding personality beneath her cool behaviour. Those who don't know that tend to be careful around her.
* **Question:** You try hard to encourage Emilia to take some sugar, but she still avoids sweet foods. Does that worry you?
	+ **Corey's answer:** Nope. I sometimes add sugar in her drinks, but she doesn't notice.

**Emilia was also asked about Corey in the Q&A section:**

* **Question:** Your fear of getting fat prevented you from eating sweet foods. How did you overcome that?
	+ **Emilia's answer:** I still avoid eating too many sweet foods. Every time I order cake, either Joni or Corey will finish it for me.
* **Question:** Why would a studious girl be close friends with an athlete?
