Before Em knew it she was in Craig's car heading back to Toronto. She had ran to the beach and found Craig walking to the path, seeing her on the way. She told him everything that he had missed. Craig didn't want to go, but he saw that Em had to leave. He grabbed his bag, said bye to Sean. He got into the car and began to drive back to Toronto. The whole ride Em and Craig stayed quiet, they didn't exchange one word. When they arrived back at her house, Em saw that Spike's car was gone. No one was home.
"Want help?" Craig asked eyeing her bag in the back seat.
"No." Em said shaking her head.
"Are you ok?" Craig asked curiously.
Em stayed quiet for a moment. "I'll be ok, when I forget about him."
Craig didn't say anything. A moment of silence passed.
"I called Ellie while I was packing, she wants me to come and meet her Dad." Craig said.
Em got the hint that she had to get out of the car. "Oh."
"I'll come by later if you want me to." Craig stated as Em got out of the car.
"No it's ok, I'll be fine." Em said grabbing her bag from the back seat.
"What are you going to do for the rest of the day then?" Craig asked.
"I'll call Paige or Marco or something." Em said shutting her door and waving.
Craig pulled off the curb and drove down the street. Em watched as he turned the corner. Em walked up to her house and unlocked the door with the spare key under the welcome mat. She went inside, locking the door behind her. She walked down to her bedroom and put her bag on the floor. She then lay down on her bed, grabbing the house phone from the charger. She dialed a number and waited.
"Hello?" asked a girl.
"Hey Paige, its Em."
"Hey Hon, I haven't seen you in such a long time, Ellie said you went on a trip with Craig."
"Yeah, let's just get off the subject."
"Did something bad happen with Sean?" Paige asked.
"You all know where we went?"
"Yeah, well let's get off that, so what do you need?"
"Do you feel up to going shopping? I need something to get him off my mind."
"Yeah sure, we'll pick up Marco on the way, I just got off the phone with him and he's bored out of his mind." Paige said with a laugh.
"Great, I'll see you in a little bit?"
"Yep, see ya hon." Paige said hanging up.
Emma placed the phone back on the charger; she grabbed her purse and headed upstairs.
Sean sat on the beach alone. He watched as everyone at the beach swam or played around. He couldn't get her out of his head. He then saw Danielle from the corner of his eye.
"Sean, can we talk?"
Sean sighed. "Sure."
Danielle sat down beside him. "Sorry about earlier today, I should have known she was lying because she still likes you."
"She wasn't lying, and she doesn't like me anymore."
Danielle rolled her eyes. "Ok I'm just going to forget you just said she was telling the truth—."
"Well it's the truth." Sean said looking at her. "She was telling the truth, I asked if I could kiss her she said no, and I still love her."
"You got to be kid---wait did you just say you still love her?" Danielle asked puzzled.
"Yes I did." Sean said with a tiny smirk. "I'll admit it."
"Does she know that?" Danielle asked.
"Sort of, in a way." Sean said wondering if she did.
"Well go tell her then." Danielle said making it seem as though Sean was an idiot.
Sean looked at her.
"It seems were going no where in this relationship, so were done, go find her and tell her." Danielle said sternly.
"It's not that easy." Sean said looking back toward the water.
"Yes it is, you go back to Degrassi, and tell her you love her."
"She doesn't want to see me, she told me she doesn't care about me anymore."
"And you believe her?" Danielle asked.
Sean raised an eyebrow.
"She's just saying it because she doesn't want to admit it, she wouldn't have came down here if she didn't."
"I don't think So Dan--."
"Go find her and tell her!" Danielle exclaimed. "God you boys are so thick headed."
Sean stood up. Danielle looked at him.
"Now get your feet moving!" She yelled. "You're wasting time."
Sean was about to walk away but then stopped.
"Sorry we didn't work out."
"Yeah, I'll find someone else." Danielle said with a sly smile.
Sean rolled his eyes and ran back to his house, packing his things and leaving a note for his parents. He threw his bag in the car and began to drive to Toronto.
