Emma got in the car with Snake. He dropped her off in front of the school while he pulled the car around to the teachers' parking lot. Emma walked up to her new boyfriend and sat on the hood of his car, for everyone to see. Jay just leaned in to kiss her without even thinking. Then next thing Emma knew, someone had thrown a stick at her head.

"Hey, you! Stop making out!" Ellie laughed and walked over to her, "So it is true! Hi Jay!" She waved at Jay. Emma blushed, and Jay just rolled his eyes. Emma walked over to Ellie.

"Did you throw a stick at my head? Hm, wow, you like to throw things at people's heads don't you?" Emma laughed. Ellie laughed.

"Drumsticks at Manny... just plain sticks at you! Yep! So what was that big idea?" she asked.

"Okay, so I was thinking that we would just get Jay to talk to him about it. And I talked to him about it last night, and he said he would love to. Well, I had to talk him into it, a little bit." Emma laughed.

"Well, that's Jay for you, eh?" She laughed.

"Doesn't Craig... like... hate Jay?"

"That was the part I had to talk him into" she laughed

"Ah... I guessed that! Does he talk ever?" She laughed

"Actually, he does. I didn't know that either. Oh look there's Craig"

"Wow... oh my god... look at him!"

"Breathe Ellie breathe! Maybe we should go over there, and you can flaunt your stuff."

"What stuff?"

"Stop it Ellie, you're gorgeous"

"Yeah, right, that'd be you."

"Uh, stop it lets go" Emma dragged Ellie over to where Jay and Craig were talking. Ellie waved to Craig, shyly.

"Hey Craig."

"Hey Ellie. How's it going" He smiled as he gave her a hugggeee hug. She smiled and hugged him back, tightly.

"I missed you!"

"Aw El, I just saw you yesterday, but I missed you too." She smiled.

"Yay, at least someone missed me!" She laughed

"Hey, what's the supposed to mean?" Emma playfully pushed Ellie, who bumped into Craig, and their lips, touched and they kissed. Ellie pulled back, amazed.

"Um...wow." Jay just laughed. Emma and Jay high fived then kissed. So proud of themselves.

"Yeah. Wow." Craig said.

"Um..." Craig just stood there, all embarrassed. Then he just smiled and nodded. Ellie looked at his eyes, looking up because he was so tall. Emma smiled.

"Come on Jay. Let's go make out in your car." She pulled Jay away. Craig smiled.

"So, Ellie, how's it going?"

"Pretty... amazing... that was... yeah... amazing."

"Um, so Ellie, you wanna hang out tonight, maybe go see a movie or something, after band practice." He was totally nervous and Ellie could see it in his eyes.

"Um... sure... sure Craig, that'd be great." She smiled.

"Good. Well I'll see you later." He leaned in and kissed her on the cheek, then walked away, waving to Emma and Jay.

"Oh my...god..." She could still feel his lips touch her cheek. She ran over to Jay's Civic. Emma got out of the car and started laughing.

"Breathe Ellie!!!!!"

"HE KISSED ME!" She laughed

"Yeah I saw, thanks to Jay and me over here." She laughed.

"Congrats, you have a date tonight with your sexy beast."

"Oh my god... wow... Craig kissed me, ME, Ellie Nash!" Emma and Jay laughed and then walked away from Ellie into the school.

Ellie walked into the school and went into her first class and sat next to Marco.

"Hey El. Why are you so happy?" he asked.

"Marco... something amazing just happened to me."

"Okay then spill. I'm not a mind reader." Just then Craig walked into the room and smiled at Ellie and sat two seats in front of her. Ellie smiled at him, her eyes excited. She pointed at Craig's back and smiled at Marco.

"Oh my god!!! Ellie. Really?! What happened?"

"Craig sort of... kind of... really, really, kissed me!" She whispered. Emma walked in and said to Marco, "Well it was one small kiss that I pushed them into... literally... and then he kissed her on the cheek."

"Em!" Ellie laughed

"What it's true!" Emma laughed and sat down at her seat next to Marco. Ellie laughed.

"What do you think Marco?"

"Finallyyyyy!!!!" She laughed even harder.

"Well you kissed him before me!"

"Well, he is a damn good kisser. I can see why you like him, he's hot El."

There was an awkward silence, then-- "You know what I mean!!" Ellie laughed and hugged Marco.

"You rock, Marco!"

"Well, yeah, I know. Da." The teacher was starting class.

"Shh El, class is starting, you're distracting me"

"Shut up." She laughed.

After class had finished, Craig walked up to Ellie as they exited the classroom.

"Hey Craig." she said.

"Hey Ellie. So I was thinking about our, um date. So, what did you wanna do?"

"Um... well, I dunno right now... but I'll tell ya later okay?"

"Yeah, sure sounds good. See ya at lunch?"

"Yeah." She smiled.

"Okay, later El," he said as he walked away. She waved at him happily. Emma walked up to Ellie from behind her.

"Boo." Emma smiled. Ellie jumped.

"AH!"

"Ha Ha. Scared you. Anyway, so what was that about?" She nodded toward Craig's back.

"Ahhhh, look at him, Em."

"Yeah, okay. Anyways, so what are you doing on your date tonight? Have anything 'special' planned?"

"Well... I was wondering if you could be there... like a double date!"

"Uh. I don't know if Jay will go for that. I guess I'll ask him."

"Thanks Em!"

"No problem. Gotta get to glass. Later Hun." Emma walked away in the same direction as Craig, but made a right as she exited the school.

"Where did she go?" Ellie laughed.
