Emma had come to school early the next day since she was in charge of the environment event today and as she had some help setting up a table and putting some blue ribbons around it outside, Jay was walking up behind.

Emma's hair blew softly in the wind and she smiled to a friend, "thanks for the help." she said.

She was just left alone when Jay came up, "What we protesting this time?" he asked her, "Dolphin raping?"

Emma didn't look at him, still mad at him. She looked down at her chart of things to do for this event and ignored him.

Jay raised an eyebrow standing behind her, "Are you ignoring me?" he taunted but then pierced his lips tightly when she really was.

Emma went around the table, taping a banner to the end of it.

"You can't keep it up forever." Jay declared, "Whatever I do or did, you're going to rant sometime. That's you, you're a rambler." he declared.

Emma ripped some tape pieces for her banner.

Jay grew mad, "What the hell did I do?" he snapped as Spinner came around him.

"Hey man." Spinner nodded at Jay and then went to Emma, wrapping an arm around Emma's waist and kissing her cheek.

Jay stared in disbelief.

"Want some help?" Spinner asked Emma quietly who smiled and nodded.

Jay clenched his jaw, then his fists, "What? Are you two dating now?" he sneered the word, his blood boiled when he said it out loud. How could Spinner do that?!

"Yeah." Emma said simply, finally speaking to him and raised an eyebrow. The two shared a moment of some type of glare before Jay snorted, unbelievable.

"Speaking of dating." Spinner said, clearly not seeing the tension, "How was your date with Ms. H?"

Jay finally removed his eyes off Emma and raised his eyebrows, right, something he could throw back in their faces, "Awesome, doing it again tonight." he informed.

Emma cornered her eyes but went back to working, trying to ignore him again.

Jay saw AJ's car pull up and nodded to the parking lot, "Actually, here she is now." he left.

Emma turned with her mouth hung and watched him walk away over to Slutty McSlut Slut. Give Emma time, it was the best thing on top of her head for the moment.

"Romance is in the air." Spinner joked to her.

Emma ripped her banner accidently for how mad she was trying to tape it to the wall and she gasped, staring sadly at the ripped up banner she tried so hard on.

"Hey." Jay greeted AJ, walking up to her.

Aj smiled shutting her car door, "Why hello there." she greeted and faked a gasp, "You're actually coming to say hi to me infront of everyone?"

"I didn't mean what I said this morning." Jay lied.

"About..not wanting a relationship?" AJ asked and he nodded, "It wasn't just..sex?" she asked again.

"I want something now, and I want it with you." Jay said, looking at her seriously.

She smiled softly, "Well.." she leaned in forward, cupping his face, "That was the sweetest thing I've ever heard." she kissed him.

After their kiss he gave her a low smile and then glanced over at the school, where Emma was still trying to set up her event.

Meanwhile with Emma, she tried to look busy as Jay looked over, hopefully he didn't catch her staring. He kissed AJ right infront of them like no big deal, she remembered the girls in highschool, complete idiots thinking Jay would just date them after he'd get what he wanted out of them..yet here he was now, another girl..only he was openly kissing her infront of people? DATING her, for real?

"Emma, need some help today?" Liberty asked, coming over.

Emma pushed the banner into Liberty's hands, storming around her, "Take care of the whole thing." she muttered, on the edge of tears and ran inside the school.

Emma sat against her locker, skipping class, something on her mind was just really bugging her and she tightened her arms around her stomach, thinking about what it could be..

"hey." the one and only greeted, walking down the hall.

Jay.

Emma looked over and then away, staring at her hands. He sat down next to her and sighed. The two of them had been pretty mean to another all day.

"What's this I hear you gave up your first protest event to someone else?" Jay asked her.

Emma snickered silently, as if he cared..

"Hey." Jay said softer, and she melted, feeling a little better to that tone he used and he nudged her with his shoulder, "What's wrong?"

Emma looked over and saddened..course he wouldn't know..or understand. So she made an excuse up.

"Just miss Sean.." wasn't a full lie, she did. But it wasn't what was making her so upset.

Jay sadly nodded, watching her, "Me too." he admitted, "But you have Tracker."

"not the same." Emma muttered, "everything's different now."

Jay eyed her, what was everything?

"Want me to go get Mr Bacon?" Jay joked and she laughed sadly, shaking her head and then playfully nudged her shoulder into his and he chuckled.

Emma looked over to him and he looked back, sharing a soft moment. Emma smiled softly looking down, She wasn't going to let some stupid woman ruin the friendship she and Jay had.

"Want a ride home?" he asked her.

Emma nodded and he stood up, then helped her, "Can you bring me to Manny's?" she asked.

He nodded with a smirk. Ofcourse she'd want to go there. As they turned though the one and only AJ was walking towards them, an odd smile on her face glancing between the two.

"Jay." she greeted and put a hand on his arm.

Emma looked away.

"Miss Nelson." AJ greeted, having her in one of her classes. Why was Jay talking to her? "What's going on.. are yu okay Emma?" she asked so motherly and annoyingly

Emma sighed, "Fine." she lied.

Jay had to chuckle out loud and clear too, Emma wasn't some 12 year old.

"I'm done for the day." Jay told Aj and added, "Going to drive her home." he nodded to Emma.

AJ gave a look, "Jay isn't that kinda inappropriate." she eyed Emma, she knew that smart little attitude was just an act.

Jay rolled his eyes, "I've known her for years, it's a simple ride home and I'm not a real teacher, I teach about cars and graduated just last year."

AJ oh'd, now understanding Emma and Jay had known another before.. now she felt more threatnened.

"Okay." she faked a smile and leaned up to kiss him again, "See yu tonight."

He nodded and led Emma out.

Emma slammed the front of Manny's house door shut, and ran up to her room.

"Manny!" she yelled, coming inside.

Manny groaned from her bed, "God? Is that you?" she looked so clammy and just..sick.

"You really are sick." Emma joked.

Manny whined and sat up, "Why do you think I've been gone all week?!"

"I have a problem." Emma told her.

"Do you have a high fever that makes you have hallucinations too?" she taunted Emma, because she had that..which meant she'd LOVE to be sleeping right now. What was so damn important!?

She saw Emma nervously biting her nails and looking like a deer in the headlights.

"What?" Manny finally gave in; those were serious signs coming from Emma that something really was up.

Emma looked fearfully at Manny, "I think I really like Jay.. a lot" and that 'how much?' question was scaring her to pieces.

Manny blinked and stared.

"Am I hallucinating or did you just say you like Jay?"

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble..
