DISCLAIMER:: I Don't own Degrassi. I only own this story. Oh, By the Way, I will update Psycho as soon as this awful Writer's block breaks.

"Drama? Em are you sure?" Manny asked watching Emma write her name on the spring musical sign-up sheet.

"I don't know Manny, it sounds like fun." Emma replied as she walked with Manny to English.

The truth was, she needed something to take her mind off Sean and Chris and Snake and... everything. She didn't know if she would make it into the play, but she knew the drama department would be the last place she would find Sean. She could hardly wait until the audition.

Meanwhile on the other end of the school:

"Marco, I'm sure he didn't mean it. Just give him a chance, for me?" Ellie asked.

"El, Sean is your boyfriend not mine, why should I have to give him a chance?" He asked a little irritated.

"Because you're my best friend and you mean a lot to me."

"Yea, but doesn't Sean mean a lot to you too?" Marco asked.

"Yes, I want the two most important people in my life to be friends."

"Earth to Ellie. I'm gay. Sean doesn't really seem like the type of person who wants to be friends with a guy like me."

Marco said angrily, walking away from Ellie.

"Just give him a chance!" Ellie shouted at Marco's back.

"Okay it says I need a prepared monologue, a song, and a dance routine. Will you help me?" Emma asked Manny as they walked down the stairs to the cafeteria.

"Oh, yeah sure...whatever" Manny said distracted as she ran off to go meet Craig.

"Thanks." Emma mumbled.

Lately it seemed like Manny didn't care too much about being Emma's friend as much as she cared about being Craig's girlfriend.

'It's just as well.' Emma though. I'll just prepare for tomorrow's audition by myself.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Ellie just doesn't get it.' Marco thought during media immersion.

Just then an instant message popped up on his computer. It was from Ellie.

NOLabels: Give him a chance

BaddaBoom: Why?

NOLabels: I already told you.

BaddaBoom: And I already told YOU, why should I? Sean just doesn't like me.

The bell rang and Marco shut off his computer and left to go to his locker,happy school was over.

"I didn't think it would be this hard." Emma told her mom.

"Em, it's just an audition, you'll do fine." Spike replied.

"No, I won't!! I still don't have a song." Emma said getting a little frustrated.

"Emma, just have fun with it. You've never done drama before. It's new territory for you. Try calling Manny, maybe she can help." Spike replied.

"Manny?" Emma never thought of calling her.

She went up stairs and dialed Manny's number.

"Manny, I need your help, can you come over?"

"Sure, I guess." Manny replied.

"Thanks." Emma said hanging up. She really needed the help.
