1. Chapter 1

The one that got away? Or did he make the right play?

(travis,Emmett, bay)

The characters are from the TV series switched at birth I do not own any of the characters. On a side note I often say Travis says or Emmett says and if the character is Deaf in the show and normally does not talk verbally rather signs with ASL than please take it that way as they were signing not speaking. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read my work please feel free to message me with story ideas, questions, or constructive criticism. This is the first fan fiction I have done and I am really excited to write more on it and to share it with all of you!

Bay and Travis become much closer friends than they ever anticipated but Emmett's surprise visit home throw a wrench into the butting relationship as well as his own.

Emmett's dorm room

Emmett was sitting with Skye cuddling on the bed watching the movie psycho. He could not help but think that his life was finally falling into place he was at his dream school, in a beautiful place, watching a movie with a beautiful girl but still he missed his old life, his Deaf school where he did not feel like the odd one out, his friends Travis, Daphne, and Natalie. He wished that they could be closer but he knew that he would see them on vacations and when he graduated so he decided to try to just be in the moment with Skye he cuddled in close and tried to focus on the movie it was one of his favorites. Just as he had finally managed to shake his thoughts away a flashing caught his eyes it was his cell he had an incoming video call he looked at the caller id and saw it was Travis

"one minute, I have to get this." even though they had made up after his last visit had gone so bad things were still a little tense so he got up and went out into the hall to take the call.

As Emmett hit the answer icon on the screen he tried to plaster on his best "happy there's nothing weird or wrong face" the video popped up

"Hey how are you?" Travis asked

"Great, that assistant got my tape over to her boss and now I'm just waiting to hear anything but Skye says that her connection at the company says things are looking good. How are you?"

"I'm good, just been really busy with school, and friends."

There was a slight awkward pause then Emmett chimed in "how is Daphne doing I haven't gotten to talk to her I a while?"

"She is good she is dating some yaya now though some preppy hearing jerk."

"yeah sounds just like her type" Emmett said with a slight smile trying to keep the subject as casual as possible, breaking another long pause he said "hey I have to get going Skye is waiting on me we are watching a movie together but it was good talking to you, I felt really bad with how things went when you were here."

Travis cut him off "no, no its fine don't worry about it, but hey I had a reason for calling" Emmett looked a little distracted then all the sudden Travis saw Skye.

She interrupted and said "hey! How are you? I'm really glad that you made it home okay!" then she turned away to Emmet and said "hey em I only have till 7 before I have to be back at my dorm to study for my math test tomorrow, so if we are going to finish the movie we have to get back to it REALLY soon." With that she turned back to the screen and signed "it was nice to see you again." With a super big fake smile. Travis was irritated so he said "never mind man it's not important why don't you get back to your movie and ill just talk to you later" "okay talk to you later" Emmett said with a big smile.

At the kennish house

Bay was in her garage working on an art project with the music cranked partly dancing like a nerd since no one was there to see it and partly painting when her phone started to vibrate in her pocket. Startled for a brief second she put down her paint brush and wiped the paint from her hands. She took out her cell and saw that she has a new text from Travis.

"Hey want to hang? I need to blow off some steam."

"Sure, did something happen?"

"Nope just been studying, I cannot read anymore my brain is going to explode if I have to remember anything else. "

"hah yeah I know the feeling, where/when do you want to meet?"

"Is Toby spinning tonight?"

"Yeah, you want to go see him?"

"Sounds good what time is he up?"

"7"

"Okay can you drive tonight?"

"Sure. Pick you up at 6:30?"

"Works for me" Bay put her cell down and started to clean up her art stuff so she could go get ready. She wanted to look good to go out.

At the club

Bay and Travis walked in and spotted a table. "Hey you want to snag that table? While I go get the drinks?"

"Sounds good" Bay said as she walked over to the table. They were a little bit early; Toby spotted his sister across the crowd and went over to see her.

"Hey" he yelled over the music.

"I didn't know that you were coming tonight?"

"Last minute decision. "Bay yelled back

"Are you here alone?"

"Nope I'm here with…" then Travis walked up with the drinks and did a head nod to say hi since his hands were full "Travis" Bay finished her sentence.

Over the mic a man with a deep voice announced that Toby was up and the crowd started to cheer as Toby went up to his booth leaving just Travis and Bay at the table.

"So I wanted to tell you something." Travis signed

"Okay…" Bay said with a skeptical look on her face.

"I went to visit Emmett in LA last week. That's why I haven't seen you lately. I wasn't trying to hide it from you. I just didn't know if I should tell you, if you would even want to know. It was last minute…." Bay cut him off.

" Hey you don't have to report to me… you are friends with both of us. I don't want you to feel like I want you to spy or him to feel like I sent you."

"Okay." Travis said feeling relief that she was not mad.

"So how is he doing?" Bay asked trying to look causal even though she felt like her heart was practically beating out of her chest.

"He is good." Travis said trying to keep it simple. There was a pause then he decided that Bay needed to know about Skye and Emmett before someone else told her.

"He is dating Skye…." He said looking guilty for being the one to deliver the bad news.

"Oh. Good for him." Bay said looking like she was trying not to cry. She looked down at her drink to try to avoid eye contact knowing that it would quite possibly give her away.

"I'm sorry I didn't know if I should tell you. If it helps I hate her?" He added trying to make Bay smile, it worked a little. Even thought she still had tears welling up in the corners of her eyes she could not help but smile a little bit. Travis had become one of her best friends, after what happened with tank she had found out that he had had a similar experience and they could relate to each other so they had been spending a lot of time together. "Look Emmett is a tool now, you could do way better than the person that he has become. He is stupid if he thinks that he could do better than you. Skye has turned him into a wannabee and I told him that. Actually the exact words that I used were that she had turned him into a "hipster ken doll"." He said with a small smile. Bay smiled too.

"Should I have told you?" Travis asked concerned obviously still feeling guilty.

"Its fine" Bay said but Travis didn't look like he bought it. "No really. "She said "It stings to hear that he is dating someone already, but I'm not surprised and I needed to hear it. Just knowing that he moved on helps me to move on too. " Travis could tell she was still sad he knew that she was trying to hold it together though so he decided to drop it and change the subject. " Sooo have you been working on any new art pieces lately?" Bay gave him a slight smile she knew exactly what he was doing. They spent the rest of the night talking about random stuff.

Later that night in the car dropping Travis at home.

Stopped in front of Travis dorms Bay faced him. "Hey I wanted to say thank you for tonight. Thank you for telling me the truth about Emmett even thought it puts you in an awkward spot, and thank you for trying to cheer me up and get me out of the house. I know I have been a hermit lately, I just feel stuck. All of my friends are either off at school somewhere else or busy with school here. I haven't gotten into an art school yet, I just feel a little lost. This time last year I thought my life was planned out. I was going to move to LA with Emmett. Apply to art schools there; I even had a job lined up. I thought I knew everything and then one thing after another, after another happened and nothing went as planned. Sorry I am rambling I don't mean to be so depressing"

Travis waved his hand in front of him "you're not. I told you before I am here for you if you ever need to talk depressing talk, happy talk, whatever. That is what friends are for."

"Can I ask you one more question about Emmett?"

"Sure"

"Did he ask about me? Like if I was okay or anything?"

"Yeah he did."

"Did you tell him how depressed and crazy I have been?"

"I told him that you were great, that you started taking Spanish, and were going out a lot. Don't worry I got your back" he said with a smile.

"Thank you"

"Yep."

"Okay well I need to get going I have Spanish homework waiting for me at home that I am just dying to get to. Yay." She said with an obvious sarcastic look on her face.

"Goodnight."

"Night, ill text you tomorrow or something."

Bays bedroom

Bay walked into her room, took off her coat and shoes and threw them down onto the floor. She dug her cell phone out of her pocket it was dead so she hooked it up to her charger before laying down on her bed. She couldn't believe how exhausted she was. Finally she gave up and said to herself "Spanish can wait…too sleepy" in a half awake voice. As she closed her eyes her phone powered back on and the screen lit up with 1 new text message from Emmett but bay was already asleep.

The next morning in bays room

Bay woke up to her alarm, half asleep she reached over to turn it off. She rolled out of bed and started to get ready for her day. She got dressed, brushed her teeth and threw her hair up and grabbed her cell off of its charger. She noticed the message icon on the screen she clicked the icon and saw the words that she has been missing, wanting, and fearful of seeing since their break up. 1 new text message from Emmett. Bay felt like she wanted to faint. She considered just deleting the text without reading it but she had to read it. What if this was the message she had been waiting for, the I'm sorry I was an asshole message. She pressed her lips tightly together and nervously hit open and started to read.

"Hey Bay, I just wanted to let you know that I have started to see Skye, I know that you think that she is the reason that we broke up but she isn't… I just wanted to let you know before you heard it from anyone else. I hope you are doing good."

That was it? That was all that Bay could think, that is all that he had to say? He just wanted to rub it in her face that he was happy and seeing someone now? She couldn't help but notice that he said "I hope you are doing good" not "how are you doing?" or "are you doing good?" meaning that he just let her know as a technicality and did not want a response of any kind from her. "What an ass" she thought out loud.

Bay was irritated and hurt but she knew that she could not just crawl back into her bed and sleep, she needed to go forward not fall back into depressions land. She briefly thought about texting him back and telling him what an ass he had become and never to talk to her again but she quickly decided that that would not be the mature thing to do. Instead she decided to text him back, "that's great i'm happy for you." She didn't mean it, but it was the only way she had left to keep her pride, get in a jab and still look like she was trying to be mature in anyway.

In la in class

Emmett's cell started to vibrate on his desk beside him. All he could see was the words new text from Bay across the screen. Before he could open it his teacher appeared at his side.

"No cell phones in class! It is extremely rude to waste my time and everyone else's time in this class. Some people are here to learn. If you are not one of them than you should leave right now."

"No, no I'm sorry professor. I'll turn it off right now, it will never happen again I promise" with that Emmett powered down his cell phone and went back to watching the teacher, but he could not concentrate on anything now but that text waiting for him to read at the end of class.

What would it say? "I still love you?""I miss you?"How could you do this to me?""You ruined my life?" Would it be telling him to fuck off? He just couldn't turn off his mind thinking about all of the possibilities it could be. Finally after 90 minutes of worrying class was over and he could check. All it said was "that's great I'm happy for you". That didn't sound like the Bay he knew. Where were the fireworks? Unless maybe she has moved on too…. The thought gave him a jealous twinge in his stomach he couldn't help it even though he was happy at school with Skye but he knew that The only way that she would be happy for him was if she was seeing someone too. He thought about it all day and finally by night time it had driven him crazy. He couldn't take it anymore. So he video called Travis.

"Hey what's up?" Emmett signed

"Nothing much I was just getting ready to go study I have a HUGE test tomorrow. What do you need?"

"I was just curious can I ask you something and have it stay between us?"

"yeah sure" Travis said looking uninterested and bored.

"Is bay seeing anyone?" This peaked Travis interest and quite frankly made him a little mad.

"Why?"

"I text her last night and gave her a heads up about me and Skye so she wouldn't find out from anyone else first and she text me back and said that it was great and she was happy for me. Is she lying, or has she moved on?"

Travis started to sign. Now he looked as irritated as he felt. "I don't know if you have a right to know?"

"What do you mean? I'm just curious."

"No you're not. It is none of your business if she is seeing someone or interested in anyone. You didn't want to be with her anymore. You broke up with her, you're with Skye. Bay deserves the chance to move on and be happy just like you so if you are asking me out of anything more than "curiosity" than get over it. She needs to live her life and you need to let her. I know that it is hard to let go but you made your choice and now you need to live with it. It is not fair to someone to keep stringing then on. Just let her move on."

" Dam I was just asking, I'm sorry I won't ask you about her ever again. Okay? I'm sorry peace"

"Yeah that's fine. Sorry I unloaded on you I just feel like I'm stuck in the middle of you and her. You guys are basically 2 of my best friends and it is a very fine line to try to balance on."

"I'm sorry consider the subject dropped."

"Okay, well I have to get going I am meeting up with someone to study. Talk to you later?"

"Okay night…" Emmett said still feeling awkward after that blow up he couldn't believe that he got so upset over just a simple question.

In Emmett's dorm

Later that night it was still bugging him so he finally decided to look up Bays facebook to see if it said in a relationship and what she had been doing. A new post had just gone up to her wall. "At Ihop eating with one of my Besties!" with this update was a selfie of her and Travis doing a funny face with a mouth full of food. He couldn't help it he was jealous. He knew he needed to try to ignore it but it sure didn't look like studying to him….

In the restaurant

"Bestie selfy is posted!" Bay said with a smile

"Nice, how do I look? Swave? Classy? " Travis said smiling back with a big cheesy smile across his face like you would expect to see on a sports anchor announcing his teams big win.

"Well it's about as classy as you can look with a mouth full of food showing."

"What? Let me see that, I bet I look awesome!"

She pulled up the picture on her cell showing him "well what do you think?" She said with a smile.

"I look like crap. Wow….. Well I might not have all the girls after me from this picture but at least I will have all of the guys jealous of me, hanging out with such a hottie!" he said with a smile.

"Oh shut up!" But thank you I do look pretty good huh?" Bay said with mock bashfulness and a huge smile "Travis smiled back.

In the car

Bay drove Travis home, they stopped in front of the dorms " Bays cab service is now closing for the night please tip your driver as you exit" she smiled genuinely happy for one of the first times since her break up with Emmett.

"Thank you for going out tonight I had a really good time, I don't think I have smiled like this in a long time."

"Well you should do it more often you are amazingly beautiful when you smile" his smile looked real and slightly nervous not like it had most of the night when they were joking around. Bay smiled not quite sure what to say.

"Thanks." was all she could manage to squeak out at that moment.

Travis broke through the moment "We should go out more often just the two of us. It's fun."

"Yeah we definitely should" Bay agreed with a nervous smile not quite sure where this was going or even where she wanted things to go. She looked down for a moment. Travis leaned in and gave her a hug then waved goodbye as he said "drive safe. Ill text you tomorrow?"

"okay cool, night."

Travis room

Travis got to his room and threw the weight of his whole body on his bed slightly bouncing as he landed hard. Laying flat on his back looking up at the ceiling he put his hands over his face and thought "what am I doing?!" He smiled lightly. He knew that Emmett was his friend and that Bay was not ready for a relationship yet but he also knew that it felt right between them. More right than he had felt in a long time.

Bays house

Bay walked into the house her dad John was walking upstairs with a cup of water looking comfy in his pjs. He looked down at the watch that he still had on and said "Are you just now getting in?"

"Yeah, sorry" Bay said a little nervous like she was in trouble.

"What were you doing out at this hour might I ask, and who were you doing it with?"

"I was with Travis we ate some dinner, I quizzed him for his classes, and he quizzed me for mine. Did I pass?"

"Bay you are an adult now you don't have to PASS" he said with a fake smile.

"Oh please! This was so a test!"

"Okay your right it was, and yes you did. Have a goodnight sweetheart" with a smile he turned and walked up the stairs.

Bay walked up to her room and shut the door. She leaned up against it for a minute then pulled out her cell and started to write a text.

Daphne dorm room

Her cell vibrated and started to flash on her nightstand. She tried to ignore it since she had a test the next day and knew she needed her sleep. It buzzes again she grumpily sat up and looks at her cell. 2 new messages from Bay.

"Hey are you up still?"

"Please If you are up can I come over? I really need to talk to someone and you're the only one that I can." Then before she could text back she got another one.

"Okay never mind your probably asleep, I can figure it out." Daphne knew that if Bay was rapid fire texting her she was wigging out about something so she messaged her back.

"I was trying to sleep but I'm up now so you might as well come over."

"Really? Oh my god I so love you right now!"

"How long till you're here?"

"I can be there in 20."

When Bay got there she let herself in.

"Hey."

"Hey…. What's going on?"

"I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know? You woke me up at 1 am on a school night for nothing?"

"Well no not nothing….. I think Travis likes me" she blurted out.

"What? Why would you think that?"

"Well we went to dinner as friends tonight and we were having a good time joking and laughing and we took a picture together and he told me I looked "amazingly beautiful" when I smiled and said we should hang out more often just the two of us…." Bay was seriously rambling now talking as fast as her mouth could say what came to her mind.

"Maybe he was just being nice." Daphne said flatly.

"Hey!"

"No I don't mean it like that! It is after 1 am give me a break."

"Okay fair enough. But what do you think about what he said?"

"Well that is pretty mushy? Especially for him, I can't really picture him saying that if he didn't like you…"

"Yeah I know. I don't think I have ever seen him like that not even with Mary Beth… oh no!"

"What?"

"Marybeth! She's my friend and he's her ex and" before she could finish her sentence Daphne interrupted her

"Not to mention that he is one of Emmett's best friends…"

"I know! What do I do?"

"Well do you like him?"

"Yes…. No … I don't know. I think so. It's confusing he has been such a good friend to me especially lately."

"Well before you go any farther you need to really think this through and be sure you like him if you are going to go for this. He is a great guy and it would suck if he liked you and you kissed him and he liked you even more then you decided you didn't really like him. It would mess up his friendships with you, and Emmett for nothing. Just make sure it's real first and not because you miss Emmett or want to make him jealous…. Okay?"

"You're right… I need to think."

"I'm sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear" Daphne said with genuine sympathy in her voice.

"It's okay I'm not sure what I was hoping to hear but that's what I needed to hear."

Next day at Travis's dorm

Travis picked up his cell and started to type out a text to Bay "Hey how are you?..." no that wasn't what he wanted to say he deleted the message " Hey can I talk to you?..." nope not it either, he hit delete again and started to type a third message "Hey…" but he was interrupted by an incoming video call from Bay he nervously hit answer. "Hey I was just getting ready to text you. What's up?" " Not much Toby is spinning tonight and he wanted me to try to rally the troops so that it looks like he has a following. It looks like they might be offering him a paying normal gig every week but he needs to bring people in. So what do you think?"

"Sure sounds awesome."

"You need me to pick you up?"

"naw I will meet you there."

"Okay, see you then"

At the club

Bay was sitting at a table for 4 waiting for Daphne, Mingo, and Travis to show up. Where were they? Toby was about to go on. Suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder. She smiled sure that it would be Travis; she turned to see….. But Travis was not there just some frat guy.

"Hey you want to dance?!" he yelled over the music.

"Oh no thank you I am meeting people here and I want to hold this table."

"What?" he yelled Then suddenly Travis got there he stepped in between Bay and the frat guy. He was a much welcomed interruption, he sat down "sorry I'm late."

"No you're not he's just getting started"

"Who's this?" Travis asked.

"Some frat guy that is attempting to hit on me" She said with a slight embarrassed smile. The guy looked at Travis and said "oh sorry man I didn't realize she was taken"he waved his hands in the air in front of him to surrender and then turned and took off back into the crowd probably to continue to troll for a new girl.

"Hey how are you?" Bay signed.

"Actually I wanted to talk to you about som…." He was cut off suddenly by Mingo and Daphne approaching the table.

"Hey sorry we were late" Daphne said.

"Lots of making out" Mingo attempted to sign with a smile.

"It's cool" Travis replied.

"Yeah" Bay signed distracted by what they had just interrupted. A little bit later Bay and Daphne went out onto the dance floor and started to dance together when the same frat guy from earlier and one of his friends approached them.

"Hey is that your boyfriend?" The now drunk frat guy asked referring to Travis.

"No."

"Oh good, you wanna dance?" He looked pretty toasted and Bay already had enough on her plate so she smiled politly and said "no I don't think that would be a very good idea, thanks though." She turned to try to walk away but the guy grabbed her from behind by her hips and pulled her close up against his body she tried to jerk out of his grip to pull away but her was holding her too tight she yelled "Get off me" and "let go!" but the guy just laughed.

Across the room at the table Travis saw bays struggle and ran over.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" he signed to the guy even though he knew that he wouldn't understand. The guy didn't need to understand the signs though he just needed to understand Travis's fist connecting with his jaw he instantly released Bay as he fell to his knees. Travis grabbed Bay and they left.

In the car at the club

"Thank you!" She hugged him. Travis couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, he knew that Bay was an independent person who liked to be able to take care of herself so he was not sure about how she would feel about him stepping in.

"No problem"

"Can we get out of here?"

"Yeah I was going to take the bus though."

"No way, I can drive you. Why would you take the bus?"

"Well I am staying at Melody's tonight and I didn't know if you would want to drive there or if it would you know, bring up bad memories."

"No its fine, seriously it's the least I can do after what you just did."

"Okay, thank you."

In the car in front of Melody's

"Okay well, yet another eventful night in the life of Bay Kennish" Bay said awkwardly. " tune in next week for…" she was interrupted, Travis leaned in and kissed her mid sentence it started fast and took her by surprise but the kiss lasted about 15 seconds and she could feel how much he cared for her. She could not help but kiss him back. He finally pulled away and waited for her to say something.

"Wow" she was shocked, she knew he liked her but she wasn't expecting him to just lean in and plant one on her like that.

"Sorry, I just really wanted to do that."

"No its okay."

"No I really shouldn't have just gone for it like that. It was all wrong I should have waited. I should have picked a romantic moment. I could have…." Bay cut him off this time as she leaned in and kissed him. It took him by surprise as well. After a minute they separated and looked at each other in silence for a moment they both were smiling slightly to them shelves, and slightly out of nervousness.

"Okay" he said with a much bigger smile as relief was washing over him "I will see you tomorrow?" He said trying to be as nonchalant as possible.

"You will defiantly see me tomorrow." Bay replied with a big smile. Travis leaned in and kissed her again, a much shorter kiss but one that made them both slightly giggle.

"Goodnight." Travis signed

"Night." Bay signed back. She watched him open the door he turned and waved then she drove off happier than she had been in months.

Melody's house

Travis walked in fidgeting with his house keys looking down but with a stupid happy look on his face. He looked up and saw melody smiling at him.

"Somebody looks happy! Where were you tonight?"

"Well I was out with…." Before he could finish Emmett walked into the room.

"Hey you surprised?" he asked with a smile on his face. Travis looked like he had seen a ghost. He didn't know what to say or do. Emmett and Travis hadn't been getting along for a while now and he just got done making out with Emmett's ex girlfriend who he really liked. What about Bay? What would she think? Would she fall for him when she saw him again? Should he tell her he was back? Should he hide it? This was the worst possible time for him to just show up out of the blue.

"Well say something! Don't just stand there with your mouth open. You surprised?"

"Yeah wow, sorry. Why are you back?"

"I had a break from my classes for a few days so I thought I would come for a visit."

"Oh that's great. How long will you be here for?" Travis looked super awkward but no one seemed to notice. The house phone started to flash meaning there was an incoming call, Melody left the room saying "sorry I am expecting an important call from Gabe, i'll be back." once she left the room Emmett's body language changed to less proper and less fake smiley he leaned a little closer to Travis.

"Hey are you still mad at me for your trip? I was an ass. I'm sorry, but can't we try to have fun while I'm here? Like old times. I though you could show me around campus and we could get the old gang together again!" Was he talking about Bay too? Travis could not help but wonder. If he is than does that mean he came back for her? Or maybe he did mean the whole old Deaf gang being Daphne, Travis, Mathew, and Natalie? He had to ask he couldn't help it.

"You mean you, Daphne, Natalie, Mathew and I?" Emmett shook his head yes and awkwardly added "…. And Bay too… if she wants to. I mean it might be nice to see her and I don't want to leave her out, we have a lot of the same friends so we will need to be around each other eventually. "

"So where's Skye on this vacation? I'm surprised she didn't come with you."

"She went back home to see her family and friends. Besides I wanted to come back to mend fences you were right about a lot of the stuff you said when you came to see me."

"What do you mean?"

"Well… Bay… you were rite I was a dick I didn't treat her right and I am embarrassed about how badly I went about everything and how I reacted to the whole tank thing."

Travis just took in a deep breath, he couldn't help but be concerned about what would happen between him and Bay now that Emmett was here. It was bound to be confusing for her.

In Travis room at melody's house

Travis walked into his room. What the hell was he going to do now? I don't want to risk losing her but she deserves to know that Emmett is here. I need to tell her tomorrow. That's it tomorrow night I will take her out for dinner and tell her that I really care about her and somehow try to work in the whole you ex is back by the way thing.

At the Kennish house

Bay walked through the front door with a smile on her face almost in a daze. She really cared for Travis and she loved the fact that he cared for her. Putting down her coffee that she had stopped to get on the way home she took out her cell and started to type out a text to Travis. Trying to think of the right words to say she knew "I miss you" would be too soon "what's up?" would be too obvious not to mention she would feel lame then she thought about it for a second and realized she knew just what to say so she started to type " Hey I had a really great time tonight, what do you want to do tomorrow when we hang out?" before she could hit send there was a knock at the door she happily strode over to answer it swung open the door and there stood Emmett. Her jaw felt like it hit the floor she didn't know what to say or if she should say anything at all or just slam the door right in his face. He smiled that same smile that had once made her heart melt but now it just made her angry. What was he doing here in her house? How could he just show up out of the blue after what he did to her in LA and after what he said to her?

"Hey, it's really good to see you" he finally said.

"Emmett... What are you doing here?"

"I had a break from school and I really wanted to see everyone so I came back."

"Well you don't need to see me…. You said everything you needed to say in LA."

"I was a jerk. I am so sorry for the way I treated you. It was not cool of me to make a movie about your life without your consent…"

Bay cut him off "Make a movie about my life? No no you didn't just make a movie about my life you shared intimate details of the most horrible and embarrassing, thing I have ever done or been through with your class, strangers, your teachers, not to mention your new girlfriend! You were supposed to love me and be on my side but you dropped me the second things got hard and you didn't just dump me for what happened with Tank you dumped me for Skye and you let me feel like it was all my fault because of the tank thing!"

Emmett reached out to touch her hand but she ripped it back angrily before he could really get a hold of her. "I'm so sorry"

"It's too late for that."

"No, Please hear me out…."

"Fine…." She opened the door a little more and stepped to the side allowing him to come in the house.

"Talk." she said shortly.

"I was the biggest jerk in the world. I have done a lot of thinking and soul searching since we broke up and I know that what happened with Tank was not your fault. I know that it was complicated and messy and I didn't understand it before but now I do. I should have been there for you but all I did was push you away. I promise you that it had nothing to do with Skye I just couldn't deal and I was a jerk. "

Bay rolled her eyes a bit she could tell his apology was genuine but that didn't make it hurt any less or make her feel any less angry.

"Look I don't want to do this right now…"

"Okay but Bay please just give me a chance to be your friend again. I know that I screwed up big time and I don't expect you to forgive me right away but I want to try to gain back your trust and hopefully one day we can be friends the way we used to be… We were best friends and I miss that."

"Friends?" Bay asked.

"Yes just friends."

"I can't make any promises but if you're going to be around then I can't pretend that you aren't even here either. Just to be clear, acquaintances is all i can offer you right now, maybe friends someday but that's all I can give you for now."

"Okay I will take it. I guess I will leave you to your night."

"Okay night." She said half in a daze but not the happy one from earlier now more of a numb what the hell just happened daze. It all felt like a dream.

Emmet turned around pausing as he walked out the door. "Thanks….. For giving me a chance to prove to you that the guy you once knew is still in here. Also I am trying to get a group together to go to a club or dinner or something while I'm here, I was thinking Daphne, Travis, Natalie, Hilary and you? Would you want to do that? I mean they are your friends too."

"Yeah sure, I guess….."

"Okay ill text you and let you know when and where…. Night" He smiled, she shut the door in his face leaving him with a very fake confused looking half smile on her face as she shut the door.

Bay looked at her cell and saw the message to Travis that she had started to type out before and deleted the text she had some thinking to do and needed a night of peace all of the sudden.

At Melody's house

Emmett walked in the front door. He was feeling pretty good about his talk with Bay. It had gone about as good as expected he knew that she would not forgive him right away so it was still a move in the right direction for a positive friendship again. He couldn't believe how beautiful he still thought she was, it was almost like he was seeing her for the first time all over again when he saw her tonight. It made him briefly wonder if he made the right decision to be with Skye. Bay was still the first real love of his life at least the first one that actually had loved him back, he didn't know how to change his feelings about that or if he really even wanted to.

Emmett walked up the stairs and saw that the light was still on in Travis's room so he slowly opened the door and saw Travis sitting at his desk writing he walked in slowly "Hey" Travis looked startled, he quickly closed his spiral note book that he had been writing in and said "Hey what's up?" He seemed rushed though like he was hiding something.

"Sorry, did I interrupt something?"

"Yeah but it was just homework so no big deal."

"Oh okay well I can let you get back to it. I just saw your light was on and I wanted to tell you that I went to see Bay."

These words sank Travis's heart. Why was he smiling? Did something happen? Did they kiss? Was she rethinking everything that had happened between them earlier that night? Does he still want to be with Skye or does he want to be with Bay now? He had to know or the what if's would drive him crazy.

"Oh yeah? How did it go? You look happy?" He said trying to keep calm.

"Yeah I am. I told her that I still want to be friends, I miss her and that I was an ass before."

"And what did she say?"

This question hung in the air for just a moment but to Travis it felt like a life time.

"She yelled at me."

Travis let out a deep breath, but Emmett was not finished.

"She said that we could be acquaintances."

"So why do you look so happy then?"

"Because I got to see her and in a way it felt like nothing had changed. I know it has, I am with Skye now, and I live far away. I know that she is still really mad at me but I want us to still be in each other's lives."

"Are you sure that is such a good idea?"

"What do you mean? I thought you would be happy…. When you came to LA you set me straight. I thought you would be happy that I was listening to you. She is one of your best friends and so am I. So why is this a bad thing if we are all friends again?"

"It's not bad just are you sure that it's the best thing for her? It took her a really long time to get over you and the break up."

"Over me?" Emmett seemed to hone in on these two words in an instant. Travis knew that he had phrased that in the complete wrong way if he was trying not to peak Emmett's interest in Bay again. After all he was a guy and he might just want her back if he thought he couldn't have her.

"Yeah, well I mean…"

"Is she over me?"

"I don't know."

"Well is she seeing anyone?"

"Well no Not technically."

"Oh okay well if she is not with anyone than I don't see why it would be bad for her if I try to be her friend. It's not like I am going to mess up a relationship for her right?"

"Look all I meant was that she took it really hard. One day she loved you and her whole future was planned, then the next she lost you and the future she thought she would have. It took her a while to figure out what she wanted in life now. I don't want it to be a setback for her after she has worked so hard to get back up on her feet. That's all"

"Well we are going out one night to a club or for dinner she said she would go. I get your concern and I can tell you that I am here to try to make things better not worse. Besides don't you think she would have told me if she thought it was a bad idea or she didn't want to?"

"Just the two of you are going out?"

"No all of us."

"Oh okay. Well I better get back to my homework so can I just see you in the morning?"

"Yeah you want to show me the campus tomorrow?"

"Yeah no problem sounds fun."

Emmett left the room and Travis opened up his spiral back to where he had been writing before and all that is said so far was

Bay,

Tonight was amazing. That was the happiest I have felt in a long time I know that there would be a lot of obstacles in our way but I think we are worth a shot.

The next morning on campus

As Emmett walked with Travis he couldn't help but notice that people acted differently around Travis now that he was a baseball player.

"Wow you're like a campus star."

"No not really I just have made some new friends that's all."

"Okay whatever you say." He said with a smile.

A girl started to approach she was one of the spirit squad cheer leaders and one of Travis new friends.

"Hey Trav I haven't seen you in a while. What have you been up to? How's the arm?" As she said this she ran her hand lightly down his good arm in a seductive way.

"It's been better but it's getting there I should be able to take the field next season." Travis replied ignoring what she was doing.

"That's cool. So who's you friend?"

"Oh right sorry Emmett this is Sam, Sam this is Emmett he is here visiting here from LA."

"Oh it's nice to meet you." Emmett said.

"You too" she said. With that she left for class.

"New friends huh?" Emmett smiled in a smart ass way.

"What? She is."

"Yeah she looks like she wants to be VERY friendly with you."

Travis didn't look amused, maybe if he wasn't trying to see Bay than he might have laughed too but that just wasn't the case.

"Okay so if not her than is there anyone you like?"

Travis was stuck but he didn't really know what to say. He was quite trying to think of an answer when Emmett's cell started to vibrate "Hey its Skye, ill be right back."

He stepped away and took his call after a few minutes he came back over "Sorry about that, we promised each other we would talk everyday. What were we talking about?"

Travis was relieved that the question had seemed to slip his mind "I don't remember. I need to get to class soon so I better finish showing you around.."

Later that afternoon at the Kennish house

There was a knock at the door so Bay went and answered it Travis was there. "Hey, how are you?" he said a little less enthusiastic than he normally would.

"Well let's see my Ex boyfriend showed up at my house last night, but I'm guessing you already knew that?" She still looked mad.

"I didn't know that he was going to come here and see you last night…."

Bay cut him off "You still could have given me the heads up on him being here so he didn't blind side me though. I didn't even know that he was coming back to town."

"Neither did I….. I swear, I would have told you…" Travis said "I'm not any happier about him just showing up here than you are."

"Why are you not happy? He's one of your best friends."

"Yeah he's one of my best friends that is also the ex of the girl that I just started something with that I am REALLY happy about."

Bay smiled a bit. "Did you tell him about us?"

"No. What am I supposed to say to him? It was way too awkward."

"So what are we supposed to do tonight at this get together thing? Act like we don't like each other and try to play friends?"

"I guess… He is only here for a few days, then he is back off to school and it's just you and me again.." He reached out and grabbed Bays hand lightly for a moment before signing "as long as that is what you want?"

"Are you kidding me? Yes that is what I wanted last night before he showed up and that is what I still want now but I still don't know if I am ready for a full blown relationship yet and I don't think we should tell anyone until I am."

"Okay…. If that is what you want."

"It is I'm sorry"

"I get it." He said looking a little disappointed. He really did get it, she and Emmett hadn't been broken up for that long and he knew that it must be confusing having Emmett back in town even knowing that it was only for a few days.

Bay could sense his sadness so she leaned forward and kissed him softly. "You know just because I am not ready to be all open doesn't mean we can't still do a whole bunch of this…."

Travis immediately smiled as Bay pulled him in the door and they continued to kiss for awhile more.

At the club

Bay and Travis decided that it would be smarter for them to not show up together so that they would not tip anyone off and so they could keep their "relationship" under wraps for now. Travis and Emmett came together in one car, Bay in her own, Daphne, and Mingo in another and finally Natalie and Hilary in another. Emmett and Travis arrived there first and nabbed a table. Toby was scheduled to spin so he was already there getting his booth ready when he spotted Travis and Emmett walk in. He walked over to their table and faced Emmett "look no offence but you need to leave … Bay is going to be here tonight so you shouldn't be."

"No it's cool. I talked to her. She is meeting us here."

"What do you want with my sister? Don't you think you hurt her enough?"

"I know. I am not here to hurt her." He said crossing his finger over his heart.

"You better not be."

Bay, Daphne and Mingo walked up, Bay nervously said "hi" Toby turned at the sound of her voice. "Hey can I talk to you for a minute?" he asked

"Yeah sure."

They walked off. "You aren't going to give him another chance are you?"

"No. He is just here for a few days and he asked if we could be friends.."

"So you're not going to…"

She cut him off "No, I like someone else now."

"Really who?" Toby was a little surprised by this news Bay had been so hung up and heartbroken about Emmett that he couldn't picture her being with anyone else.

"None of your business"

"Its Travis isn't it?" he guessed not really looking surprised.

"No…." her face started to turn red "Okay fine yes but you cannot tell anyone. We don't want it to get out yet, we aren't ready for everyone to know."

"Okay it's just between us... He's a good guy."

"I know DAD" she smiled he started to walk away.

"Hey Toby?"

"Yeah?"

"Thanks for caring…" she said with a small smile.

Emmett watched her over by the bar as Toby was walking away he was trying to read their lips but it was no use they were too far. "Hey I am going to go get a drink does anyone want anything?"

He walked over just as Bay was turning to leave the bar to head back to the table. "Hey I'm glad you came." He said looking down at his hands trying to look like it did not seem so weird. "I was worried that you would change your mind."

"Well like you said these are my friends too. I can't hide forever."

"I'm glad to be back I missed my life here."

"Yeah right you love LA."

"Yeah but all of my friends are here. I will always be that one Deaf kid there. "

"Hey if anyone treats you like you are just "the Deaf kid" than they aren't worth your time." He smiled and she realized that they were getting more personal than she was ready for and that if she started to be his friend this fast he might get the wrong idea that she was just a door mat that he could walk all over with no consequences so she sighed a slight bit and said "Well I'm going to get back to the rest of the group, see you over there."

He smiled it felt nice to get advice from her he missed hearing her speeches about how people would love him and how great he was. She always knew just what to say to him to make him feel safe.

Bay took in a deep breath and walked back over to the table. She sat down and started to sip her drink. She started to space out about everything going on.

"Bay? Bay? Hello in there?"

Bay suddenly snapped out of her trance when she heard Daphne's voice. "Huh, what did you say?"

"I asked if you were okay."

"Yeah I'm fine. Can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Sure."

The two girls walked to the ladies room and went inside where they had some privacy. "What's going on?" Daphne asked

"I kissed Travis more than once…"

"BAY!"

"Well technically he kissed me and I kissed him back and we have been kissing ever since."

"When did this happen?"

"The same night that Emmett got home but before either of us knew he would be here."

"Wow talk about your ironic timing."

"Yeah. I know.."

"So does Emmett know about you and.."

"Nope"

"Are you guys going to tell him?"

"I don't know. We weren't going to until we were sure that there was something to tell but I feel like I am lying to him and cheating or something…. That's crazy right? I don't owe him anything.. He has a girlfriend I can have a boyfriend if I want."

"I agree… so he's your boyfriend?"

"What?"

"You said boyfriend." She said with a smile

"No he's not… yet but I want him to be. But I can't deal with telling Emmett and its really none of his business, besides if we tell him right now it will just look like I was trying to make him jealous or get even. And I don't want to deal with that and I really don't want Travis to feel like that."

"Okay well let's get back out there and finish up this night. Once he goes home you can be with Travis." Daphne smiled as she said this.

"Why are you smiling like that?"

"I'm just really happy for you guys.."

"Thanks, I'm happy too."

They both took in a breath and walked out the door trying their best to look happy.

When they got back to the table Travis took advantage of Emmett not looking and asked Bay if everything was okay.

"Yeah it is she said with a smile." Before they could say anymore Emmett looked back at them and they stopped signing, but Bay took a small opening to grab Travis's hand under the table for a few moments and squeeze it just tight enough that he knew he was giving her strength. So he smiled.

"Hey do you guys want to dance? Emmett asked.

"Everyone agreed to go on the dance floor and all dance as a group. Bay was swaying to the beat of the song, she had no idea that was Emmett was watching her from behind checking her out. and Emmett had no idea that Travis was watching him watch Bay. Travis looked rather irritated with Emmett's stares that looked more than friendly to him.

"Hey I'm going to go to the bathroom. He signed to Bay and the others. As he walked away Bay realized that the bathrooms were in a cove that was out of sight and that this would be the perfect time to sneak over and be able to talk to him alone finally for the first time tonight. She had wanted to kiss him all night long it was weird how she already felt like they had been together for a long time. She realized that they had been so close as friends that other than kissing, cuddling, or any physical stuff that they had basically been together for awhile. she decided to take her moment she really wanted a chance to talk to him and sneak a kiss so she told the group that she would be right back looking at her cell pretending that it had gone off and she needed to take the call, she placed the phone to her ear and held up her finger and started to walk off towards the bathrooms once out of sight she put her cell back in her pocket and leaned up against the wall outside of the men's room waiting for Travis to come out. Once he did she grabbed him by the arm and jerked him towards her smiling.

"Hey what are you doing?" he said smiling as well.

"I want to be with you…. Just you, in a real relationship. Where everyone knows and we can kiss in public."

Travis smile grew "You sure?"

"Positive. All I have wanted to do tonight is be able to take your hand and kiss you. It has been killing me that I can't."

"Me too."

"I do want to wait until Emmett is gone to tell people thought. We just don't need the added pressure and the extra drama that would bring. I want the start of us to be happy and as stress free as possible."

"Sounds good." He smiled and took her hand. They kissed a long passionate kiss and as they did his hands slid up to her face and her hands fell on his hips.

They pulled apart and Bay said well we better get back out there. They turned to go back to the dance floor then they saw him Emmett. He was about 20 feet away and he had seen the whole thing. He looked like he was going to cry and wanted to punch someone out all at the same time. Emmett turned and started to walk away angrily. Travis jogged up after him and put his hand on Emmett's shoulder, Emmett whipped around and punched Travis as hard as he could. Travis fell to the floor but recovered quickly and jumped up, he punched Emmett right in the eye, they ended up in a full brawl on the floor Mingo and another guy at the club broke it up, each holding a different guy from swinging.

Emmett broke free and stormed out of the club.

In the club parking lot

Bay followed him. As she approached him she was worried that if she touched his shoulder from behind she might get punched being mistaken for Travis so she decide walking around into his view was the wiser decision.

"Go away Bay!" He said when he saw her.

"Emmett, I'm sooo sorry. We didn't want you to find out like that."

"Why didn't either of you tell me then?"

"We didn't know how. We weren't even sure what we were yet so we wanted to be sure before we told you…." She took a step closer to him he looked devastated once she got closer she caught a glimpse of light in his eyes and realized it was the light in the parking lot reflecting off of a tear.

"I hate that seeing you kiss Travis felt like 100 daggers through the heart! I was happy with Skye!"

"I'm sure you still are."

"No how could I be? If seeing the two of you could make me feel like this?

"Look we were together for a really long time. We were in love. Those feelings don't just go away, but that doesn't mean that is still what you want."

"Look I got to go… I don't really feel like talking to you right now…I'll see you around Bay.."

Bay let him walk away she knew that was what he needed.

Back in the club

Bay walked back in, Travis was sitting at the bar with a bag of ice on his face.

"Well that went well." He said.

"I feel bad that we hurt him."

"You mean like he hurt you?" He asked a little defensively.

"Just because he hurt me doesn't mean that I feel the need to get even…"

"I know. Sorry I didn't mean that it was stupid."

"It's okay, it's been a pretty stressful night."

"What did he say to you?"

"Not much. He is hurt. He asked why we didn't tell him. Can I take you home I'm tired and I want to get some sleep if that's okay? I'm just not really In much of a party all night club mood anymore."

"I'll just have Daphne give me a ride back to the dorms, I don't think I should go back to Melody's tonight."

"Yeah probably not a good idea." Bay said with a weak smile

"Drive safe, text or call me if you need to talk…"

"Okay I will. Night"

"Night" she gave him a quick peck on the cheek not feeling like it would be right to do a real kiss after everything that just happened.

In Daphne's car

Daphne pulled her car up to the curb out dise of the dorms.

"Hey Mingo can I meet you inside?" Daphne asked

"Yeah sure…." He gave her a quick kiss and started into the dorms.

Daphne turned to Travis "how are you holding up?"

"Ehh my cheek doesn't hurt that bad."

"That's not what I mean.."

"I know."

"Why did Emmett go off like that?"

"He saw Bay and I kissing…"

"What? Why the hell were you guy's kissing there?"

"I know it wasn't smart but we decided to be together in a real relationship."

"Good, I'm glad. You guys are both great so I am glad you found your way."

"Hey I need to get in to put some more ice on my face, I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Okay. Night."

"Yeah."

Melody's house

Emmett stormed into the house Melody was sitting on the couch reading a book but she knew someone was there because whoever got there slammed the door so hard she could feel the vibrations through the couch. She looked up to see Emmett coming in looking pissed off. Then she noticed it the black eye.

"What the hell happened to you?"

"Travis and I got into a fight."

"What? Travis did this to you? Why would he hit you?"

"Probably because I hit him first."

"Why would you do that? He is your best friend."

"Not anymore. Now he is Bays best friend."

"He can't be friends with both of you?" Melody asked confused.

"No mom you don't get it they are together together!"

"Oh."

"Did you know?"

"No I didn't but…"

"But what? He is a jerk we were supposed to be friends and he still went for my ex girlfriend not that long after we broke up! What did he just wait for her to be available to try to jump her?"

"Emmett you broke up with Bay she had to move on, you did with Skye…. I wish that she had chosen to move on with a different person that wouldn't have been so hard on you but…"

"So you're taking his side? Unbelievable! You're my mom you know that right?"

"Yes I know that and you might not always like what I have to say but it's my job to say it. I'm sorry hon but you choose a path and now you have to stay on it. Travis and Bay would not try to hurt you... You still love Bay don't you?"

"Yeah I guess, I didn't think I did but I felt crazy tonight like I wanted to kill Travis when I saw them kissing."

"Do you still want to be with Skye?"

"Yes.."

"Then you should let Bay go and just be happy that she is with someone who you know is a good person. I'm not trying to take sides, I love you, you are my son and I don't like to see you unhappy but you need to be fair. You have to let her move on, and unfortunately you have no say in who it is with."

"I know,." He said sitting down on the couch. "It's just confusing I felt so confident in my decision to break up with her and be with Skye but now I am wondering did I make the biggest mistake of my life? Should I be with Bay still? Did I push her away because of the Tank thing?"

"Look if you guys are meant to be then you guys will find your way back I promise sweetheart. You know she loves you BUT you need to let this play out and let her move on. Break ups are easy when you are the one who has moved on but finding out the other person has stings… a lot." She gave him a sympathetic look.

Emmett just nodded his head. "I need to go to bed maybe I'll wake up from this nightmare and my friend won't have betrayed me.."

"Is that really all that is upsetting you?"

"NIGHT, mom."

"Just think about what I said"

"Yeah…"

The next morning in Bays room

Bay woke up feeling like Dorothy from the wizard of oz like she had had a strange dream that was happy, sad, and confusing with everyone she cared about there. She didn't really know what to think. She looked over at her clock and shot up in bed 9 AM SHIT! I over slept I'm going to be late for class she jumped all the way up and ran to her closet grabbed the first outfit she saw and booked it out of the house. She drove to campus and ran the halls to reach her class she had made pretty quick time only five minutes late. She opened the door in a hurry accidentally making a big noise, the teacher stopped class "so nice of you to join us Bay now if you would take your seat than maybe the class could get back to what we started ON TIME. "

"Sorry." She said looking embarrassed she walked over to her seat and saw Mary Beth. Crap she was so worried about Emmett and what to tell him that she hadn't thought of what to tell Marybeth yet she needed to tell her after class though so that she didn't hear it from anyone else. She thought all through class more about what to say to her rather then what the teacher was saying. When what felt like by far the shortest feeling 55 minutes of her life was over she still had no idea what to say but now was the time she had to say something.

"Hey what's up why were you running late" Marybeth asked

"Uh I got up late it was a long night."

"Everything okay?"

"Emmett is back in town."

"He came back for you? I knew he would you two were meant to be!"

"No, he is still with Skye."

"Oh I'm sorry. Open mouth insert foot." She said with a nervous smile.

"He wants to be friends."

"Do you think you can do that?"

"No, not really."

"Did something happen?"

"Well we all went out to the club last night Emmett, Daphne, Mingo, Natalie, Hillary, Travis and I and Travis and Emmett got into a fist fight…."

Bay looked the most awkward she had ever felt.

"What? Why? What happened?"

"Well…. (She took a deep breath)… I need to tell you something and I really hope you still want to be friends with me after I say this.."

"Okay. What?"

"Emmett saw Travis and I kiss so he got jealous and hit Travis then Travis retaliated."

"So you and Travis kissed to make him jealous?"

"Actually… we like each other. We didn't mean for it to happen, it just started a few days ago. I wasn't hiding it from you I would never mean to go behind your back I value our friendship…"

She cut her off "Not very much."

"No I do I swear!"

"How would you feel if I told you Hey Im dating Emmett all of the sudden but I valued your friendship?"

"I would feel awful and I hate that I am making you feel that way I just wanted to be honest with you."

"And you were. Job done… friendship too…"

Bay sat at her desk with tears starting to well in the corners of her eyes knowing how much she had just hurt her friend.

At Melody's

The doorbell flashed and Emmett walked to the door he opened it and saw Travis there.

"What the hell are you doing here? You have a lot of nerve!"

"I need some books for school I left here…"

Emmett started to shut the door in his face but Travis put up his hand and stopped it.

"Look I did not come here to fight or talk I just need to run upstairs and get my books."

"Let me ask you something did you and her even wait for her tears to dry after we broke up before you guys jumped in the sack?"

"I don't know did you wait for her tears to dry before you jumped in with Skye? "

Emmett was fuming "Really? You are seriously going to try to make me out to be the bad guy here? You were my friend, like a brother to me and you stabbed me in the back like this and you honestly think I'm the bad guy?"

"I don't have to make you out to be the bad guy. You did that yourself…. You cheated on her the first time you went out. You didn't support her when she was raped and tried to make her feel like it was her fault and like she was cheating on you or something. You dumped her after she flew all the way to LA to tell you she loved you and wanted to move there to be with you. Then you got with Skye so fast after the break up that her plane probably had not landed. Not to mention you made a movie about her rape! And what did I do? Really? I fell for a great girl that was SINGLE because you were stupid enough to let her go. You are just feeling guilty and regretting your decision and that's not on me that's on you! You want a shoulder to cry on? Why don't you go home to your girlfriend maybe she would be sympathetic that you are completely jealous that you ex is happy with someone other than you. Admit it you thought she was going to just be there when ever you decided you wanted her again and your jealous that she moved on, this had nothing to do with me!"
