Season 3...

"Just come eat with us." Sean begged his blonde girl friend in the cafeteria.

Emma's gaze settled on the table a few feet away from him, a year older group sitting around it and messing around. Alex was there, she was like the schools girl bully, she leaned back in her seat and her arms crossed, laughing to whatever the darker skinned boy, Towerz, was saying...which was wierd since he never really spoke outside this group. Then there was Jay Hogart, Sean's stupid new friend, and he was stealing french fries from his girl friend Alex as he caught a glimpse of Emma looking and they connected eyes, glaring a bit at another but trying not to look obvious, for Sean's sake.

"Sean, you can have your friends, and I'll have mine." Emma simply said, looking back at Sean but scoffing to the shared look with Jay Hogart. Even their introduction to him was rude, he totally broke into a vending machine and Sean got the heat for it, then they got into a fist fight; how the hell did they become FRIENDS?!

"Their not that bad." Sean insisted, trying to pull her hand but she yanked it back.

"Jay Hogart not that bad?" Emma repeated and giggled, "He just got out of detention a few hours ago for stealing my Dad's projector." she raised an eyebrow at Sean who tried to hide the embarressed look on his face.

Here he was trying to stick up for Jay and Emma was a little right but he still had a good feeling about Jay.

"He gave it back." Sean declared, "I made him."

"It's fine, if you like him, I'll deal with it." Emma confirmed, leaning up and kissed his cheek, "Not like you're a big fan of Liberty or the guys." she teased, glancing behind her now at the table a little more than a few feet away.

Toby and JT were trying to throw smarties into anothers mouths and Manny and Liberty were sharing annoyed looks.

"J.t's not so bad." Sean said with a cringe, admitting Emma's other friends like Liberty and Toby just weren't exactly his cup of tea.

"And.." Emma tried to look back at his table, "Towerz isn't that bad!"

"Because Towerz doesn't talk." said Sean, not letting that answer slide.

"Exactly." Emma giggled at his grin and shrugged, "Have fun at lunch." yes they were a couple but they didn't ALWAYS have to be together right?

Sean nodded and watched her go to her friends before he went to his, "Sup guys?"

As he sat down, Alex popped her gum in her mouth and Towerz nodded as a greeting, as for Jay, he gazed at Sean and then over to his little girl friend at her table at the corner of his eyes.

"Oh deary." Jay said lightly, and too sarcastically, "Did your girlfriend not want to sit with little ol' us?"

"She seems busy with her babysitter club anyways." Alex said with a smirk, glancing over too.

"Enviromental club." corrected Sean, rolling his eyes.

"Doesn't look much better." Alex informed with a snicker.

"Leave her alone guys." breathed Sean, he didn't want his new better friends to not like the greatest girl he's ever been with. He didn't know why these cliched types always had to hate another..the good girls and jocks versus the bad boys and gangsters.

"Why?" snapped Alex, "She's a f-"

Jay cut her off, stealing another one of her fries, "Lexy, Sean said to leave her alone." he said with a dark gleam in his eyes, "So we'll leave her alone."

"Leave me alone." Emma confirmed, slamming her locker door shut the next day at school and Jay leaned on the one beside it, looking down at her with that evil smirk.

"Don't you wanna get to know another GP?" he asked.

She shoved her homework into her bag as she asked him, "Gp?" she rolled her eyes. Great, what'd that mean?

"Greenpeace." he said rather proudly and she tied her bag up with a huff.

"No and don't call me that." she went walking off but he followed after her.

"I'm gonna call you whatever I like." he informs and her blood began to boil. What did Sean or ANYBODY see in this jerk?

"Go for it, just get out of my way." she told him as he ironically blocked her exit, leaning on the door frame. Jay was a tall slim guy, black backwords hat and shaggy hair. Yes they were young, but he still seemed a little bit older and intimidating, but still, Emma raised her chin and stood her ground.

"Whatever." Jay said and shrugged boredly, "Just stop trying to make Cam pick between us.. I don't think you'd like the outcome if you did so at least I'm being nice and warning you if you want to stay around...much to our dislike."

He eyed her closely when she laughed at him, and he squinted his eyes.

"You think he'd pick you over me?" Emma asked him and then eyed him closer and swallowed a bit, seeing no doubt in his eyes. Really?.. if she gave Sean the order to pick between them Jay was THAT convinced he'd win?

..but Emma and Sean were Emma and Sean.

Emma slightly gazed off as Alex jumped behind Jay, wrapping her arms around his neck, "Baby!" she squeeled, kissing around his neck now.

Emma looked back up and he still had his eyes hard on her and she bit the end of her tounge then scoffed to the macking Alex did on his neck and shoved by them through the door.

"See yeah Greenpeace." Jay simply said, turning to face Alex but eyes still on the girl til out of sight.

"Freak." Alex said, glancing over as well and smirked back up to her bad boy as he finally looked down and kissed her back when she crashed her lips to his.

That weekend, Emma would stick it through and swallow her pride when Sean took her to something called the Ravine, which she heard awful things about.

Jay's gang would always be around a bonfire, drinking and would make Sean drink too even though Emma's experienced him having bad alchohal reactions..he couldn't handle the booze, made him moody.

That's when she decided it wasn't a good idea to ALWAYS go. MAybe every other weekend, not like she talked to anyone while there anyways unless Manny would come.

So the year would consist of dealing with her Dad's cancer, her moms pregnancy and dealing also with her boyfriends new asshole gang of friends, and trying not to bark back at Jay and engage in fights...which was hard some of the time.

"Hey!" Emma heard a deep whisper behind her. Jay wasn't sitting behind her, that was Liberty, but Jay sat behind Liberty and nodded to Emma to catch her attention.

Emma rolled her eyes, they were in the middle of a test!

"Give me your math answers." he said and Emma tossed a glare over her shoulder as Liberty glanced quickly at them.

"Bite me." Emma simply said back, shooting daggers and he narrowed his eyes back at her.

"Em." whispered Liberty, nodding forward to warn her the teacher was coming near so Emma tried to sit foward and focus.

But she could hear him whispering so clearly..

"God you're such a prude."

"And you're such a loser. You failed this class once already, you can't really try to do the work this year?" she snapped too loudly and was turned around to face him again.

Liberty cringed when the teacher came over infront of Emma and laid a slip down, "You can go to detention after class Miss Nelson.." she walked to Jay and laid one on his desk too, "You as well, but that's not much of a shocker." the teacher said dully, walking off.

Emma's mouth fell in horror, her eyes mortified as the bell rang and Jay snickered, getting up and handing their tests in. When he came back, Emma was still in shock.

"Get over it, there are worse things in the world." he taunts, rolling his eyes and she slowly got up to leave, her eyes on the ground sadly.

Her perfect record of no sickness' or detentions...now all gone.

She stood there with him still behind her and he had to chuckle, what? She was taking it too damn seriously.

"Should of gave me the answers Greenpeace." he whispered playfully in her ear before walking around her and she snapped her mouth closed, fumming and went after him.

"Woah, woah, woah!" Sean yelled, trying to grab Emma back when she actually threw her small fist on the back of Jay's back when they got out to the hall. Sean was passing just in time.

Jay raised an eyebrow and turned, "Oh that was that a punch? Thought someone poked me to catch my attention."

"Why can't you guys get along? It's been a year." Sean said annoyed, rolling his eyes and holding Emma as hard as he could. She was little, but a fighter.

Emma struggled in Sean's arms and looked angrily at Jay, "It's all his fault! Everything is!"

"Ofcourse it is." Jay informed her, snickering, "Classic Greenpeace NEVER stirs any trouble or engages in fights." he rolled his eyes

"Someone has to remind you you're a piece of-"

"Miss Nelson and Mr Hogart." their teacher came back out, crossing her arms, "I believe I said to go to Detention."

"Detention?" Sean repeated, shocked himself and looking at Emma then at Jay a bit madly.

Jay shrugged innocently at him but turned and smirked as his and Emma made their way to detention
