Jay's POV:
Everyone looked at me, while I sat there thinking. "We can't confront her yet or she may feel like it's a trap and do something worse than what she's been doing. If she doesn't stop self destructing by the end of the week, then we take action. There is strength in numbers. We are better together then we are apart, so if we are all together then we may be able to talk to her. Hell, I may HAVE to call Sean and tell him the truth if she gets too out of control." I said as everyone nodded in agreement, but worried about Sean's reaction. I called Emma, but she didn't answer her phone.

"Well, I have to go home. We will help keep an eye on her. We are friends with both of them and we know how much he loves her." JT said, as I nodded. The others left until it was just Manny and I. "You like her don't you?" I narrowed my eyes at her. "The whole school already knows you two are dating." I shook my head. "To be honest, we just wanted to see everyone's reactions." She looked at me and said, "You didn't answer the question and I won't tell anyone." I looked at her. "Jay, come on. I was right about Emma and Sean the moment I saw the together for the first time. I know you like her." I raised an eyebrow. "Then why did you ask?" She shrugged before she asked me to answer the question. "Alright, fine. I've liked her since I saw her, but don't tell anyone. Alex and Sean would kill me if they knew." She smirked and looked at me. "Emma needs our help right now and I don't think a relationship is going to help her at the moment." She looked at me as if I knew something and wasn't telling her. "What exactly has she been doing besides what you've told me?" I looked away before I sighed and looked back at her.

"I caught her drinking at the ravine before she passed out." She looked shocked. "How many?" I didn't want to tell her, but she is Emma's best friend. "Three." I told her. "Why aren't we doing anything about this, Jay? We have to do something now." She said, as she was about to get up. "Wait, we can't confront her yet. If she knew that all of us are going to try and intervene then she will feel like she's being backed into a corner and won't talk to us." I explained as she nodded. She looked at me for a few moments. "You love her, don't you?" I shook my head. "No. I don't, but I do care about her." I said as she smiled.

Emma's POV:
I was pissed as hell. Why won't people leave me alone? Jay is really starting to piss me off more and more each damn day I see him. I sighed as I drove to the Ravine again. I felt like I had no control over my feelings, thoughts and behavior anymore. I parked my car and got out. I brought my back pack with me and put it down on the table. I sighed as I sat down on top of the table and ran my fingers through my hair. I can't remember the last time I had anything to eat, but I didn't care. I took my diary out of my bag then grabbed a pen and started writing.

I don't know what's happening anymore. I can't sleep or be around my friends anymore. I'm pissed off at everyone right now: Rick for the shooting and believe that I liked him when I didn't because I was still in love with Sean at the time. I'm pissed off at Jay because he was the one who invited me to the Ravine last year, but there was a bigger reason that made me angry with him. I just couldn't figure it out yet. I'm pissed off at Ellie who wouldn't get back together with Sean when I asked her to. I'm mostly pissed off at myself for leading Rick on which almost led to me getting shot or killed.

Sean needs to be with her because I know that after awhile he will get tired of me and will give up on us. Hr will need her by his side more than ever. I know that he and I have a connection between us, but it's only because he's my first love and I'm his and because of the shooting. I love him. I really do, but I have to let him go. He doesn't need me around anymore. It's for the best. I hope she takes care of him and doesn't make the same mistakes I did.

I sighed and put my pen down as a familiar car parked next to mine. Jay got out and walked over towards me as I put my journal away in my bag. I noticed he had something in his hand.

"Hey, I have something for you." He handed me a bag and a bottle of soda. "Thanks." I said as he sat beside me. The bag was next to me along with the Dr. Pepper. His hand touched my shoulder as I looked in Jay's eyes. "I'm sorry about what I said earlier about comparing you to Rick. I was just in a bad mood and took it out on you." He smiled a little and nodded. "You're forgiven." He said as I leaned my head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me as I looked into the distance. There was silence, but it wasn't awkward or anything. As I looked off in the distance, I felt Jay turn to look at me. I looked at him and he leaned in as I did as well. We kissed It was soft, comforting and made me feel different. I had some thoughts running through my head and some of them confused me.

What did i do? What does this mean? Does it even mean anything?

Those thoughts confused me, but I pushed those thoughts aside and thought about something else.

I think I know what I have to do, but I need some time to think about it before I make a decision.

I was so confused about how I felt about the kiss.
