**Disclaimer: I don't own anything and I won't steal Craig and hid him
under my bed, I promise.
((AN: This is chapter two.and I hope you like it. And some history for DEGRASSI MY WAY.I'm not sure how it fits in with the "Ecstasy" episode, so don't ask. But Jimmy & Spinner are good friends with Paige and that other girl, not too much with Ashley anymore. Sean is going out with Ashley, and Sean's best friend is Craig, Terri's best friend's with Ashley. JT & Toby are still good friends. Liberty.well I don't know where she fits in. Somewhere between Manny and Emma. I think that covers it. On with the story.Oh, and I just wanted to let you know, Emma isn't ALL evil in my story, so for you Emma lovers, please don't be too hateful! Remember, this is DEGRASSI MY WAY! Haha.thanks! And on with the show.))
Emma angrily went upstairs.
'Fine. I never wanted her as my friend anyway.' She went up and used her phone to call Toby. At least he'll listen to her.
**TEN MINUTES LATER**
"You know, Emma, Manny does have a point." Toby said.
"I can't believe your taking her side!"
"I'm not taking her side. I agree with you totally. But you made Manny cry!"
"Stop being so practical, Toby. You obviously haven't liked a guy before."
"I hope not" He said. Emma started to laugh then stopped herself.
"That's so unfair. I can't believe Craig doesn't like me! What does he see in Manny?!"
Toby sighed.
"And anyway, Toby, looks like you're my only friend now. Liberty hates me ever since her dyslectic incident and I'm not speaking to Manny, and JT is.JT."
This made Toby feel special. 'That means more time with Emma! CHA- CHING!' He beamed on the other end of the phone.
"Just don't ever take sides with Manny. She's a backstabber. If you do, I won't be your friend either."
Toby sighed. Oh well, it's the price to pay for extra time with Emma!!
"Hold on a sec, Em, I have a beep."
"Toby! I just had the worst night of my life!" It was Manny.
"Uh, hey Manny." Toby said uneasily. Manny was so cute and funny, and he'd love to talk to her, but that would be against Emma's rules. I mean, he wanted to be friends with Emma.and maybe even more.he thought.sorry Manny!
"Sorry, I'm on the other line right now, I'll call you later."
"Okay, but I really need to-" Toby hung up. At that time it was 10:30. Toby finished his conversation with Emma, overly agreeing with her on just about everything .
Manny sat at home, thinking, until she went to bed. 'Craig will help me work things out in the morning' she thought.
Manny awoke to the phone ringing. It was Craig. He couldn't be around today until 7. He sounded really sorry and he promised to call Emma once he got home. He even left Manny his cell phone number. Manny told him that it's okay, and she tried to call Toby again.
"Hello?" This was Ashley.
"Hi, this is Manny. Is Toby there?"
"Mmmhmm, hold on a sec."
"Toby, Manny's on the phone!"
Toby was eating breakfast at the table. He had sweatpants and an old tee shirt on. He was chewing on a big bite of pancake. "Tell her I'm not home!"
Ashley laughed at Toby.
"Uh.He's not home, call back later."
"Um, okay. Thanks."
"Bye"
Ashley said and sat down by Toby. "Why don't you wanna talk to her? She sounds nice." Toby rolled his eyes.
"You'd never understand."
"I was only trying to be nice."
"Well, stay out of my business!" With that, Toby trotted ((AN: so now he's a horse!!)) upstairs to call his precious Emma. Maybe he could get a date out of her. But Manny continued to call. She was sad and hurt and couldn't get Ashley to tell her why Toby wouldn't talk to her. By the 5th time she was in tears.
"Is Toby home?"
"Uhhh."
"He just doesn't want to talk to me, does he?"
"Manny? Hi, it's Ashley, Toby's ((AN: half or step sister??)) I don't know why he won't talk to you, but you sound nice, and I guess I have a few minutes so I can listen if you really need to talk"
This was unusual for Ashley to listen to a junior, therefore even to associate with one. But there were two things. She was in a good mood and Manny seemed nice enough when she came over. She gave Manny a chance.
"Oh, hey Ashley." She took a breath and wiped tears away from her eyes.
"Sorry for bothering you, its just that, okay, you know Craig, right?"
"Mmmhmm" Ashley said, while picking dirty clothes off her floor.
"Well Emma and I both liked him. And he liked me.and asked me to dance at the 80's dance. We snuck in."
Ashley laughed. "That sounds like something I'd do."
"And Emma got all mad and ran off, and she yelled at me. Like it was my fault that Craig likes me."
"Oh, I see. Yeah, Craig is really cute."
"So now Emma's not talking to me."
"Well, if it'll make you feel better, you and Craig can come along with me and Sean to the mall tonight. Just until you get things worked out."
Ashley was surprised at herself. She thought all juniors were selfish little brats. Judging from her brother and Liberty, anyway. But this Manny girl was really starting to grow on her.
"Really? I mean, what about Terri? Isn't she one of your friends?"
"Yeah, but she didn't want to be a third wheel. Or in this case, a fifth wheel. ((AN: I hate that show, by the way.))
"Oh. So you really mean it? I can come along?"
"Sure, why not?"
((AN: Like it? Should my chapters be longer? Shorter? Give me some suggestions! Hint, Hint, the next chapter there will be a new person! I thought I was being unfair to Emma, so things will get better for her, I promise. And maybe she'll get some man-action! So review. And the next chapter will be up ASAP!))
