Chapter 1 'House Arrest'
Manny was at her locker getting some books for her next class. She had been spacing out for most of the day thinking about Emma. They hadn't been the greatest friend but she still cared about her. Emma's parents weren't gonna let her come back to school until the gonherea was comepletely gone. Everyone blamed Jay for using her vulnerability against her. Manny shut her locker seeing Alex walking towards her. 'Just great,' she thought to herself.
"Hey Manny?" Alex said with a cocky smile. "Where's that sluty friend of yours?" She said talking about Emma.
"Shut up Alex," she said crossing her arms over her books. "I don't appericate people calling my friends names," Manny said before walking away.
"Even when is true," Alex yelled before walking down another hall.
Spinner was at his locker looking through the mess. Some many things were clouding his mind right now. He could have killed his best friends,' he said throwing a book in a locker.
"Yo calm down Spin," a voice came from behind.
"What do you want Jay?" Spinner said turning back to his locker. Jay wrapped his arm around his shoulder.
"I just wanna make sure you kept your mouth shut," Jay said slapping his face lightly.
"Look I really don't want to talk about it okay," Spinner said moving away from his grasp.
"What is this ass hole doing here?" Manny said as she came walking towards them with a glare in her eye.
"Just talking to your boy toy here," Jay said patting spinner on the back.
"Yeah well no one wants you around," Manny said standing close to him.
"What did I ever do to you?" Jay asked in a low voice.
"Lets see you terroized a kid causing him to shoot people," Manny began. "Then you used Emma and gave her an STD," she said looking up at him.
"Look I never meant for that to happen," he said mainly talking about Emma. "How is she?" Jay said with a concern look on his face.
"She under house arrest because of you Jay," she said with tears in her eyes. "Then she gonna have to deal with all the crap at school," Manny said glaring up at him.
"Okay I think thats enough," Spinner said stepping in between. "Come on manny I will get you to class," he said closing his locker.
"Just remeber I wasn't the only one who terrorized Rick," Jay said looking at Spinner then back at Manny.
"Yeah but you didn't stop it either," Spinner said walking past jay with manny. They got to her class and he hugged her. "You gonna be okay?" He asked softly and she shrugged her shoulder slightly.
"I am gonna be fine but Emma-," he cut her off.
"She's gonna be fine Manny I know it," he said kissing her on the cheek and walking away. ((()))
Jay was sitting in his MI class catching Mr. Simpson glaring at him. 'She must have told them everything,' he thought to himself. His watch went off telling him it was time to take his pills. He hated this treatment because it always made him sick to his stomach.
Jay took a deep breath before walking up to Mr. Simpson. "Can I go get a drink of water?" He said swallowing hard when caught another glare from his teacher.
"Yeah go ahead but take your stuff class is about to end," Mr. S said turning back to his laptop.
Jay nodded his head, grabbed his bag and left the room. "Alex," he said to himself as he spotted her at the fountain.
"Oh here is the cause from my nautices stomach," Alex said walking over.
"Look Alex I am not in the mood okay," Jay said walking past her. He took his pill wiping the excess water of his lips.
"Yeah well your gonna listen anyway," Alex said getting up in his face. "Do you have any idea the damaged you caused?" She said crossing her arms.
"Yea I do," Jay said softly.
"I don't think you know the damaged you caused," she said trying to control her voice.
"I know that I can't change what happend Alex's," Jay began. "But I am trying to make things better," he said as the bell rang and kids came rushing out of class.
"I have to go," he said turning away.
"You gonna have another rendevou with the nature loving whore," she said slightly laughing and Jay turned back around.
"Don't ever talk about her like that again," he said with his finger in her face.
"Aww Jay gonna soft on me," she said grabbing his chin.
"Your one cold bitch," he said pushing her away.
"You made me that way," Alex said coldly before walking down the hall. ((()))
Spinner was sitting against his locker eating a sandwhich. Manny came over quickly and sat next to him. Spinned slightly smiled at her and gave her a small kiss on the lips. She knew that he had an involvement in the prank. He never told her straight up but she managed to put the pieces together.
"Are you gonna be okay honey?" Manny asked resting linking hands with him and resting her head on his shoulder.
"Yeah I am gonna be okay," Spinner said smiling.
"How are things with Jimmy and the rest?" She said scooting a bit closer to him.
"They are good as can be expected," he said shrugging his shoulder.
"How are things with Emma?" He asked looking up at her.
"She's okay I just talk to her," she began. "I told her about what happend she already knew," Manny said looking back up.
"How? Did jay tell her?" He asked out of curiosity.
"No he didn't she just figured out on her own and I filled in the rest," she said taking some of his sandwhich.
"Hey get your own," he said pulling back from her. "I got to get going we are having a celebration for Jimmy's return," he said getting up with her.
"Alright I will see you there then," she said walking the opposite direction. Spinner walked into the library to find Jimmy and Hazel kissing.
"Uh excuse me," Spinner said giving them a smile. Hazel got out of Jimmy's lap wiping her lips in the process.
"Uh I will see you later Jimmy," Hazel said blushing as she walked past Spinner.
Your coming with me," Spinner said coming behind Jimmy.
"Where are we going Spin?" Jimmy asked as he was pushed out of the library.
"You'll just have to wait and see," he said with a smile on his face. Jimmy and Spin made their way to the gym. ((()))
Jay pulled his car up in front of Emma's house. There were no cars in the drive way meaning she was alone. He took a slow deep breath before getting out of the car. Jay took his time getting to her door. He stood outside for a few moments before rining the bell.
Emma came running down the stairs just getting out of the shower. "Who is it?" She said with her hand on the knob.
"Its me Jay can we talk," Jay said on the other side. She hesitated for a moments but then slowly opened the door.
Jay walked in not making eye contact with Emma. "How are you doing?" He asked in a very soft and gentle voice.
"Good you?" She asked walking over to him.
"I am doing okay," he said fidgeting with his fingers. They stood in an awkwards silence for a moments. "I think basically everyone in school hates me," he began. "You know for what I did to Amy, Alex and you," he said looking into her eyes.
"Its not all your fault," she replied. "I was a big girl I knew what I was doing," she said sitting down on the couch. Emma motioned him to sit next to her on the couch.
"Thanks," he said sitting down. "Hows the treatment going?" He said knowing it was a stupid question.
"Its sucks but I have to deal with the consequences," she said looking down at the floor. Jay took his hand and lifted her chin up.
"I am so sorry Emma for everything," he said in a low voice. Emma nodded her head soon finding herself getting lost in his eyes. "I need to tell you something Emma," he said taking a deep breath.
"What is it?" She asked slightly scooting away from him.
"Its about the shooting.." he began. "You know that me, Alex and Spinner were involved in the feathering," he said feeling a lump in his throat.
"Yeah," she said nodding her head.
"Well after he came back to Degrassi," he said looking down. "Me and Spinner set up Jimmy to take the fall Rick was listening the entire time," he said reaching for her hand.
Emma quickly pulled away from him and stood up in shock. "Your the reason he brought the gun out," she said. "Your the reason why he shot Jimmy, Sean and tried to kill me," she said with tears filling her eyes.
"That is the last thing I wanted Emma," he said standing up.
"Do you know how many lives you destroyed?" She yelled at him. "Jimmy is in a wheelchair, Sean had to leave Ellie, and me I can't even sleep anymore," she said looking into his eyes.
"Emma please let me explain," he said grabbing her wrist only to be slapped with her free hand.
"GET OUT!" She yelled with tears streaming down the side of her face. Jay ran out of the house and she collasped onto the floor crying. ((()))
Jimmy was wheeled into the gym to find the basketball players and cheerleaders. He looked up at Spinner and smiled at him. "Jimmy come over here," Mr. Amrstrong motioned him over to the center of the floor.
"Alright before we head to the playoffs, the team would like to thank someone who helped get them there. Let's have a big round of applause for Jimmy Brooks!" Mr. Armstrong said and everyone cheered.
"Hey um alright. Your name's already on here twice, but uh from now on Degrassi's MVP basketball award will be known as the Jimmy Brooks trophy!" Spinner said handing the trophy to Jimmy.
"Um this is definitely a surprise. I guess all I can say is, uh we go for MVP number 3 next year right! Go Panthers!" He said holding the trophy over his head.
"Jimmy man I wish you were their rocking the court with me," another guy said walking up.
"But since you can't were gonna dedicate the games to you," he said with a small smile.
"The man who held this team together for so long," another boy said clasping hands with him.
Jimmy smiled up at them before looking back at the hoop. 'This was it for him no more basketball,' he thought to himself.
"Alright guys back to lunch," Mr. Armstrong said and walked over to Jimmy. "Anytime you need to talk I am here," he said shaking his hand.
"Thanks that means alot," he said and then Armstrong walked away.
"Hey! You need anything man," Spinner said coming up to him.
"Yeah I need my legs back," he said wheeling himself over to Hazel. Spinner ran his hand through his hair before walking out.
"You alright babe?" Hazel asked running her hand along his face.
"Yeah come on I am hungry," he said before wheeling out of the gym Hazel following close behind. ((()))
Jay spent the rest of his lunch just driving around. He was parked right outside of school with his radio blasting.. He kept thinking about the fight he just had with Emma. Jay felt so sick with himself right now. Part of him was afraid of getting caught but the other part was afraid of never being able to talk to Emma.
"Hey babe?" A voice said over the radio noise. He opened his eyes to see Amy leaning through the window.
"What do you want Amy?" He said turning of his car and getting out. Amy walked around and pressed herself against him.
"Oh I think you know what i want," she said running her hand over his chest. Jay pushed her away from him.
"Its over Amy," he began. "How many times do I have to say it?" He said before walking into te school. He was storming through the halls when he slammed into someone.
It was Craig Manning the last person he wanted to see right now. "Watch where your going next time?" Jay said pushing past him.
"Stay away from Emma and I'll stay away from you," he said getting up in his face.
"Is that a threat," Jay said glaring back at Craig.
"Yeah I guess it is Jay," he said crossing his arms. "That girl is cared for by alot of people we're watching you," he said before walking off.
Jay slammed his fist into the locker before sliding to the floor. He didn't go to the class instead he went to the roof. The roof was the only place he could think clearly. ((()))
