*Authors Note: This is my first degassi fic…so bare with me please. This story does not follow the season…I mean some of the things from Season eight have happened, but this is my own story…. that I created…I hope you like it…. it's basically for all the Jemma/Semma fans…. basically a fight between Jay and Sean for Emma….
Chapter 7: What's up with Emma?
Emma ordered a whiskey sour. She had never had it before but she just needed something. She took the drink and sipped it. She made a face. How could people drink this? It tasted nasty. She almost chocked on it, but instead she drowned it all. She just needed a little liquid courage. Just a little.
Before she knew it, Emma had ordered a bunch of drinks. She had a pleasant buzz. Like the one, she had at the unfortunate party when JT was killed. Yet without the need to throw up this time. Emma was stumbling around and could barely walk. This was so unlike Emma. Yet here she was drinking away her guilt, pain, and confusion.
Meanwhile Sean had decided to stay at Jay's instead. He did not feel like leaving and going to Alex's. He could be hurt and mad at Jay's place. He stayed to the room. There was a TV and magazines for him. Sean mostly looked at pictures and yearbooks. He was reminiscing about a lot. It hurt to know Emma and Jay hooked up. Could he really blame them? Emma and Jay had both been single. It just hurt neither one told him. He wondered if they would have ever told him.
Jay stayed in the living room. He was distracting himself. He was bored and got up. He knocked on Sean's door, "I am heading out to grab a beer. Want to come?"
Sean looked up and stood up, "Yeah."
The boys left for the break room. Meanwhile it was midnight and Emma was hammered. She was stumbling to the door. Well, she was having help. Some strange guy had his arm around her and was walking her out of the door. He planned to get lucky with the drunken blonde.
As the guy was coming out her dumped into Sean and Jay. The two guys did not notice Emma because she was slumped over in the guy's arms. The boys gave the man a dirty look and the man gave the boys one. The girl in the guy's arms groaned and that's when both Jay and Sean recognized Emma.
Jay was the first to swing. He did not even ask questions he just clocked the guy holding Emma. The guy fell back letting go of Emma. Sean was quick to grab and hold onto her, as Jay continued to assault the guy.
"Jay…come on man." Sean set Emma against the wall and tried to pull jay off. It was hard to do with one arm, but he managed. Jay walked over and swooped Emma into his arms. Both guys looked at her and carried her to Jay's place. Well this would be tons of fun Jay thought.
At Jay's, place the plopped Emma on the couch. Both of them had no idea what to do. Neither had seen Emma like this…..well once, but no one talked about that.
"What do we do…..I mean this is awkward enough already…" Jay wondered.
Sean shrugged, "I have no idea I mean….I have never seen her get drunk. This should be one of us." He gave a small snort.
Emma looked around. She was drunk and on some guys couch. She looked up and saw four eyes staring at her, "Can you two not hover please?" Emma slurred.
Jay had to admit this was freaking hilarious, "Sorry Blaze but you are on my couch, can't help it."
Sean eyed her, "Emma what is wrong with you?'
Emma got up, but then fell right back down, "Me…wrong with me.. nothing.. I am fine…just freakin peachy…"
Sean shook his head, "Come on stop being such a…well such a you know…"
Emma shrugged, "can't help it…its what I do…I ruin things and make people mad and just lose control…and sleep with two guys….and make mistakes…"
Jay's smiled disappeared, "Your saying it was a mistake…what was a mistake…."
Emma eyed him, "All of it…everything…him ….you…it was one big mistake. never should have happened…..you both took advantage of me...Jay because I was in pain over not having Sean…and Sean because its Sean…how could I say no"
That hurt…both guys were hurt. Sean eyed her and tried to refrain from saying something, "You're the one playing with us…you knew damn well what you were doing…so do not play the victim. You know what…I am going to bed." Sean turned around and headed into the spare room.
Jay looked at Emma, "Now who is the jerk. You're not a nice drunk. None of us did anything to you. You could have said no, but you did not want to. You want to have your cake and eat it too. Well sooner or later it will bite you in the butt…well by the looks of it seems sooner then later."
Emma watched Sean go, "Run away its all Sean ever does…run away…to the damn army. not caring who will be hurt in the process." Then she looked at jay, "Oh look who is talking Mister I can't commit. Why would I want you when all you ever do is lie and cheat. You're a one way ticket to a broken heart."
Jay was hurt. It really bruised his ego. He was going to say something but instead he waved her off and walked away. He had to .
Emma passed out on Jay's couch. So, they left here there. A few hours later Emma rushed to the bathroom to pay homage to the porcelain god. She gave back everything she had to drink. Emma laid her head against the toilet. "I feel like shit."
A voice broke into her thoughts and handed her a water, "You were pretty wasted. Drink this…it helps."
Emma took the water and swallowed, "What in the world happened. I do not remember even drinking. I do not remember anything."
The guy sat next to her and shrugged, "So you do not remember insulting us or saying we did this to you and basically just being a way bigger jerk then I could ever be."
Emma drank some more water and leaned her back against the wall. She eyed the guy. "I have no idea what the heck is wrong with me. I keep screwing up. I mean…I am failing at Smith dale. Many and I are…well who knows what and not to mention I slept with you and Sean. Now apparently I made an utter fool of myself by saying things I probably did not mean…I hate this"
Jay just shook his head. He was still very mad, but he wanted to make sure she was okay. He had no idea why, but he needed to know. Sean was fast asleep, but Jay had stayed awake to check on Emma, "Sorry, but you did it to yourself. Its what you do Blaze. Worry yourself to death and then cause issues. And you run over people and their feelings in the process.
Emma eyed him," Do you have to be a prick?"
Jay nodded, "You're playing with us…and I don't like being played with. I really thought we had something. I showed a side no one sees and you go and pull some crap like this and sleep with Sean…if you did not want me then next time tell me." Jay was going to stand, but Emma grabbed his arm and pulled him back down.
Emma moved closed and placed her head against his chest, "I am sorry. I just…I do not deal with stress and problems well. I just….I don't know…." Emma started to cry.
Jay cursed under his breath, "I am trying to be mad at you and you are making it hard…..damn Sean was right….no one can be mad at you for long…" He looked at her crying form, scooped her up again, and took her to his bed. Jay hated to see a woman cry. Then he could not be a jerk to her.
