Okay here's the next chapter. Hope you like!!

It was the next day and Courtney was resting in her bed. Her body hurt all over. She decided not to go to school today. Now there was a knock at her door.

Courtney- Come in!

Courtney was surprised to see Emma and Manny at her door.

Courtney- Hey! What are you guys doing here?

Emma- We came to visit you of course!

Manny- Yeah!

Courtney- Well aren't you guys mad at me?

Emma- Well, sorta.

Manny- We're just mad because you didn't tell us about him. You were in a dangerous situation and you didn't tell us.

Courtney- Guys, I'm sorry. I was just to scared to tell you.

Emma- Well you shouldn't be. Courtney, we're your friends. We'd understand. Craig went through basically the same thing. We could handle it.

Courtney- Thanks, you guys are the best. Speaking of Craig, I think that relationship is over.

Manny- Why would it be?

Courtney- He's really upset that I didn't tell him about Kevin.

Manny- Oh, I see. Well, Craig's pretty open-minded. I think that if you went and talked to him, you could work things out.

Courtney- You think?

Emma- Of course. Now what about you and Jimmy?

Courtney- I don't know. I think I still like him but Ashley came up to me yesterday and told me she still had feelings for him. And I'm thinking, that if I could get Jimmy to say that he still likes her, they could hook up. But he's so cute!

Manny and Emma laugh.

Emma- Well I hope everything works out. Are you coming to school tomorrow?

Courtney- Yeah.

Manny- Alright, see you then. Bye!

Courtney- Bye guys!

They left. Man I better sleep on this, she thought. What am I to do?

*The next day*

Courtney came to school early that day to catch up on her assignments. Every teacher was surprised but happy that she decided to come back to school. She got her stuff ready for the day and headed into the gym and decided to practice some dance moves. While she was doing so, Jimmy came in.

Jimmy- Hey that's pretty good.

Courtney turned around and was glad to see him.

Courtney- Thanks.

Jimmy- Courtney. Why didn't you tell me about your old boyfriend?

Courtney- Oh, I don't know Jimmy. I guess I was just really scared to tell anybody is all.

Jimmy- You could have told me. I would have understood.

Courtney- Yeah, I know you would have Jimmy. But, I didn't and I'm really sorry.

Jimmy- I'm sorry too. (pause) So what's going to happen to him?

Courtney- Oh, I really don't know what to do.

Jimmy- Well, I'll always be there for you when you do know what to do.

Courtney- (walks over and stands close to him) I know you will Jimmy.

They are standing really close and staring in each other's eyes.

Jimmy- You know.....you have really beautiful eyes.

Courtney- (blushes) Thanks. (pause) You do too.

Jimmy leans in and kisses her. They stay for about 5 seconds. The bell rings.

Courtney- Well, I better get going. I'll see ya around.

Jimmy- Yeah. I'll see ya.

They both walk out of the gym. Wow, she thought. Now I think I really, really do like Jimmy. But what about Craig??

*At the end of the day*

Courtney just closed her locker when she uncovers that picture of Kevin in the bottom of her bag. She looks at it, starts to cry, and rips it up. She falls down to the floor and just sits there.

Voice- Hey? Can I join you?

Courtney looks up. It's Craig.

Courtney- Yeah. I guess so.

Craig- Listen, I'm sorry for getting upset with you yesterday. I just didn't like the fact that you lied to me.

Courtney- Yeah, I'm sorry too.

Craig- If something was going on, I wanted to be able to protect you. I really care for you Courtney.

Courtney- I do too Craig.

Craig- Then why didn't you tell me!? I went through the same thing. Emma told you. I could have helped you out.

Courtney- (begins to cry) I really don't know! Craig, I was scared! Really scared! I didn't want to get hurt again. But look, I did. I really don't know what to do Craig. I'm just a really scared kid.

Craig holds her in his arms while she is crying and she keeps repeating, "I was just scared". She finally begins to stop.

Craig- You know what? I want to help. You should have a restriction order against him. That way he'll never be able to hurt you again.

Courtney- Okay that sounds good.

Craig stares deep at her.

Craig- Like I said before, you really are beautiful.

Courtney- Thanks.

Both lean in and they kiss for about 10 seconds. Courtney just then realized something. Her feelings for Jimmy were gone! Craig was the one for her! He really cared for her. He was going to help get a restriction order against Kevin. Craig was the one, and only Craig.

Hope you liked it! The next chapter will have more with Spinner/Terri/Paige and Marco. Now what will happen between Courtney and Jimmy? Keep reviewing!!
