Emma and the girls had rushed back inside her house from trying to have a nice relaxing tan session outside.

Emma's neighbor, Chester, had ruined it. Darcy and Chantel seemed to be outraged that Emma didn't warn her the new guy was her neighbor.. Emma thought nothing of it, it was just Chester, and his annoying twin brothers.

They had got into a water fight, which was pretty fun, but the boys had totally ruined girls night!

"It's fine, Em." giggled Manny, clearly loving the fact boys had visited, "It's still light out, girls night hasn't even begun yet." the girls shared looks and giggles

Emma tilted her head curiously. What'd that mean?

They took the pranks further, and had started throwing tampons on Chesters tree outside his house. Oh god if either their parents found them, there would be hell to pay.

Emma giggled madly with the girls.

They all gasped and screamed when the front door open, and Emma had been grabbed from someone and dragged to the side of the house as the rest of the girls went running and laughing.

"Whose out there?!" came Chesters fathers voice...then came an outraged, "TAMPONS!?" he then slammed his door closed.

Emma tried hard not to laugh and Chester was smiling back at her, a finger on his lips to make her stay quiet.

When coast was clear, Chester was walking her back over to her house, "My brothers were gonna call the cops, but I begged them not to." he let her know.

"You begged?" taunted Emma, not believing it but believed the cop part. Wow, that woulda been embarressing.

"Didn't wanna see you go down to the big house." Chester flirted.

Emma stopped outside her house, sensing the flirting and froze up a bit. . you'd think she'd be good at it, or ready for it. But she wasn't. Sometimes she even forgot she wasn't a virgin anymore, not until she thought or saw him around.

"You wanna go get some hot chocolate?" he asked her curiously.

Emma looked down at her hands, going to say no, but hey. Why not.

"Sure." she looked back at her house. It was pretty late, but whatever. Her parents thought she and the girls were asleep anyways.

They had snuck out of her window to go seek revenge on Chester, Chuck and Chad.

"I wonder where the girls ended up." Emma had to admit, he laughed.

He eyed her as they walked. Her hair was getting long, and since so late, she wore what looked as close as it got to pajamas; black short shorts and a long up red plaid shirt. It use to be her Dad's actually. hugged her nicely. She'd usually not go out in the open with short of shorts, but she was sure the Dot wouldn't be packed at all this late, it was probably ready to close.

"To next year!" cheered Ellie, giggling with Craig and Ashley.

Sean sat there rather boredly, and they all sat in the booth. The three were excited for senior year. If Sean didn't fail 6th grade by moving all over the place before Degrassi, maybe he'd be as excited.

They sat at the Dot, and nobody else but an old couple at the corner were there. It was around midnight, and Spinner was working the counter.

Sean noticed the group was ignoring him but honestly, at least Spinner came clean. It wasn't his fault Jimmy was technically shot.. Jimmy did his share of bullying Rick too. And little did they know, it wasn't what made Rick bring a gun to school, it was Emma's rejection that did.

He started to stare off at the sprite in his hands, not being able to focus on the good time this 'double date' was supposedly having.

He had totally missed the door open and Chester and Emma sit down.

Spinner had though, and felt nervous. Emma. She was another person who Rick had almost shot.. he just, he was dying of guilt for months on end and it didn't stop.

"Hey.." he drifted.

Emma looked up from laughing at what Chester said and slowly stopped smiling. Oh right he worked here.

She didn't blame him either, but she sensed the tension.

"Just two hot chocolates." she said and he nodded, turning to go get that.

Chester narrowed his eyes at Emma, "I have to ask.." he says, "Hows a girl like you single?"

Emma bit her lip and shrugged her shoulder. She wished she had an answer...

Meanwhile behind them, Sean recognized that laugh. Emma. He looked up, seeing his angel up way past curfew, least for her..

And she was with some guy.

His hand tightened around his cup, trying not to break it. Emma was drowning it the plaid shirt she wore, making it look like she wasn't even wearing shorts and he wanted to rip his hoody off and go hide any skin showing off to this boy.

"Whose that?" luckily, he didn't have to ask, Craig had noticed someone different with her too, "With Emma?" he nodded over.

Sean snapped his eyes off when Ellie looked over and she tensed to Emma's name as well but infact, liked what she saw. Emma and some guy sitting closely, giggling away. The guy was cute, not her type, but cute and seemed to be grabbing Emma's attention .Good.

She slid her hand into Sean's.

"New guy I think." Ellie admitted, "I remember him around Marco and he helped with the dance Paige bailed out on."

"Is he gay?" smirked Craig.

Sean tried to not smirk with him and they even shared a look.

Ashley rolled her eyes, "So not, he had a thing with Manny Santos." she rolled her eyes again, "Obviously. Plus, look at them." she nodded, "Guy can't keep his eyes off her-"

"SEAN!" Ellie squeeled, his sprite finally falling from his hard grip and going everywhere.

Emma had looked over now, hearing his name and only seeing the back of him, and she tensed. Did he know she was here? Ellie looked frantic, but was giggling and her heart twisted.

"Can we go?" she whispered to Chester and even grabbed his hand.

He raised his eyebrows, likin that, so did as told.

Spinner turned and stopped in his tracks, holding the hot chocolates. Where'd they go?

Sean had looked over his shoulder as well, bewildered, and watched sadly as the door shut and Emma was gone..

I know we
Said it's just as well that I won't keep, keep you for myself
But, I don't want to see you happier with somebody else

Oh, why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
Why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
Why can't you just be lo-lo, lo lo-lo, lo lonely?
I know you need someone too
This just feels so soon

This just feels..so soon

(marianas trench- so soon)
