a/n: Well, um, here it is.

"Sean, I miss you so much." Emma said over the phone. She's began snooping around the room she's have to spend a week in.
"I miss you to, Em. So, are you gonna bring me back a present?" Sean asked jokingly.
"I think me coming back would be your present."
"How about you coming back, and giving me some?" Emma rolled her eyes. A couple of months ago she would have slapped him for saying that, but by now, she was used to him coming on to her.
"Oh my gosh! I'm on my cell, I forgot, we've been talking for almost three hours! This is so gonna kill my allowance!"
"Yeah, I gotta go 2, someone else is calling me, bye Em." With that Sean clicked over.
"Hello?"
*************************************************************************************
"Sean? It's Craig." Craig stated nervously. Would Sean turn him in? Nah, it was Sean, he wouldn't...would he?
"Hey Craig, what's up?"
"Um...I'm with Manny. We're,er, driving...well, I'm driving. We're leaving, running away."
"What?! Why? I thought you guys weren't together anymore? What will Joey say? What will Emma say? What will little Angie say? What about Mr. and Mrs. Santos? What about school? What about your life, you.., You can't run away! Why?" Sean asked out of breath.
"Sean calm down," Craig said with a slight laugh. "we're running from the police. You know the Eden guy? Well he tried to hurt Manny, so I beat him up, and he was unconcious, then me and Manny got into it, if you know what I mean, heh heh,("Shut up Craig!") anyway, now Eden's dead, and we're leaving Toronto." Sean tried to say something but he couldn't.
Maybe he's just heard Craig wrong. Nah, Craig couldn't have just confessed to murdering a guy and was now running from the cops.
"Is this a joke?" Sean asked.
"Nah, man, I'm not kidding. Here, I can't talk and drive." He handed the cell to Manny.
"Sean, he's not kidding. You can't tell *anyone*, except Emma and tell her not to tell anyone or else I swear, I'll come back and murder you both like Craig did Eden."
"Manny!" Craig shouted warningly.
"Kidding, listen, Sean, we'll keep in touch, if the police come tell them nothing." Manny said and with that hung up.
"I'm not going to jail." She stated.
"And you think I want to? We're in this together." Craig said avoiding Manny's glare.
"For your information, I'm not the one who just murdered a guy."
"But, you were there, and you didn't stop me. You were an accomplice." Manny smiled. That *was* kinda cool.
"Bonny and Clyde." Craig chuckled. Manny nodded and turned the radio on and to their surprise '03 Bonny and Clyde' by Jay-Z featuring Beyonce'
was on. With that song, Manny closed her eyes and thought back on the first time Craig had called her his girlfriend.
~*~*~ FLASHBACK2 ~*~*~
It was Monday morning as Manny and Emma walked through the crowded hall of DCS. Manny was going on and on about her date with Craig.
"So, we're having dinner, when all of a sudden Craig says 'you're beautiful' really loud so all the ppl could hear. They were all staring at me, and I was embarassed at first, but then this old guy sitting a couple seats away said 'you are ya know' I could tell I was blushing." Emma rolled her eyes.
"Emma, stop sulking and go say hi to Sean." Manny stated leaving Emma because she saw Craig talking to Spinner and Jimmy. **She's right, all I have to say is hi Sean, and he's right there, 15 steps away, 14, 13,12...**
"Hey, sweetie." Mannys said as she came closer to her dream guy and his friends.
"Isn't that sweet." Spinner said batting his eyelashes.
"Shut-up, Spinner." The couple chimed in unison.
"So, when's the wedding?" Jimmy teased, punching Craig playfully in the arm.
"Whatever." Manny said rolling her eyes. Jimmy winked at her and put one of his arms around her.
"Just kidding," then he added in a low whisper only she could hear. "if you get tired of Craig, you know where to find me." Manny's mouth immediately opened in shock. Was Jimmy coming on to her?
"Okay, step away from the girlfriend." Craig said knocking Jimmy's hand of Manny and replacing it with his. Spinner gave Craig a questioning look. Manny smiled **Girlfriend, I'm his girlfriend!**
"So, you're offical? Cool. Come on Jimmy, let's go before they start making out in front of us." Jimmy nodded and walked away, but not before giving Manny a private wink.
Manny decided never to tell Craig that Jimmy had flirted with her, some things are meant to be kept a secret.
~*~*~ END FLASHBACK2 ~*~*~
When the song ended Manny opened her eyes. Maybe she should tell Craig about Jimmy, they weren't together anymore, why would it matter?
"You know, Jimmy flirted with me when we were dating?" Manny blurted it out before she'd thought of a way to say it. Craig pulled over without saying a word.
"He what?" He said looking over a Manny. She nodded.
"While we were dating, you know the time you called me your girlfriend, and times after that." She said suddenly taking an interest in her hands.
"Oh." Craig said and started out on the road again. **Great, now I've made our relationship uncomfortable** Manny thought bitterly and closed her eyes again, this time to not to think about the past, but to get some shut-eye.
*************************************************************************************
Emma laid down on one of the lumpy beds and sighed. It was sooo boring here, already! She'd always imagined Mr. Simpson's family to have this surban home, with a mom, dad, maybe a dog, not...this. Her thoughts began to slip back to Sean. She remembered the times when she was still angry at him and how she tried to ignore her feelings for him, and then all of a sudden she was all shy, then he asked her out, and she said no...
~*~*~ FLASHBACK3~*~*~
Emma and Manny are walking down the crowded halls of DCS. Manny's going on and on about her date with Craig, but Emma isn't paying attention. She has justed spotted Sean getting books out of his locker. Emma forgot that her best friend was talking and decided to tune in. "...away said 'you are ya know' I could tell I was blushing." Manny finished. Emma rolled her eyes. She now glad she didn't catch all of that story.
"Emma, stop sulking and go say hi to Sean." Manny said and left her there in the middle of the hallway. **She's right, all I have to say is hi Sean, and he's right there, 15 steps away, 14, 13,12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...one? ** Emma stopped looking down at her feet and came face to face with Sean.
"What d'you want?" Sean mumbled. Emma blushed.
"I just came to say hi." Emma said looking back down at her feet.
"Oh. Hey." Sean said, Emma could tell he was embarassed.
"You get that math assignment done?" Sean asked.
"Yeah, it was easy." Sean rolled his eyes.
"For you." He said closing his locker.
"I could help you finish yours if you want." Emma said suddenly. **Where did that come from?** She wondered. Sean shrugged and made his way through the hallway. Emma followed. As she and Sean walked by Manny and Craig, she noticed that Jimmy's arms was around Manny. **weird** she thought.
" So, Emma, how are you doing?" He said taking a sideways glance at her.
"Fine."
"Look, I'm sorry about the fight and_"
"Just don't talk about it." Emma snapped. ** He just had to bring it up**
"Sorry. Listen, if you're not doing anything later, maybe we could, I don't know...go to the mall, or something?" Emma felt oversized butterflies gliding in her stomach, but she couldn't go out with him, she still had four more weeks of giving him the cold shoulder, it was marked in her planner.
"No, sorry. I gotta go." She said quickly and left Sean, just as Manny had left her in the middle of the hall.
~*~*~ END FLASHBACK3 ~*~*~
Emma sighed. "I was so stupid back then." She said to herself.
"What cha do?" came a voice. Emma jumped at the sight of a teenage girl who looked alot like Mr. Simpson. She had flaming red hair that almost reached the floor.
"Oh, did I scare ya? I sorry, did'n mean ta." She said. Emma nodded.
"I'm Emma are you...um..Torak? I'm supposed to share a bed with her." The girl laughed.
"Nah, Tarak's a bitch, too bad ya got stuck with her fer a week. I'm Laurel, Archie's second cousin." She said. Emma noticed that unlike the rest of that weird family Laurel was wearing something normal. [jeans and a tee-shirt]
"Tha family scare ya? Ya, they scare meh too. Don't worry Emma, you'll get used ter it." She said.
"So, where's the rest of the people who sleep here?" She asked curiously. Laurel paused for a moment, as though thinking, then said,
" Reci isn't home yeh, she's tendin' to tha animals at that shelta, Fenski, I dun know where he is, I'm guessing in the shed makin' out wit Cheela, they're really close cousins, sick tha are." She said. Emma nodded. **I gotta get out of here**
"D'you know where my mom is?"
"Eatin, I reckon, Great Aunt Erin gave her a big ole bowl of hogmaw, and I think I saw 'er go back fer seconds." Emma nodded and was about to go look for her mom when her beloved cell went off yet again.
**Bon, Dun, Dun, Dooooo, Eiip~! Bon_**
"Hello?" She asked rather annoyed, it was Sean... again.
*************************************************************************************
"Emma?! God, you won't believe this! I just got a call from Craig. He and Manny are running away!" Sean shouted. He was clearly upset.
"What?! Why?" Emma asked.
"Craig and Manny accidently killed Eden, and now they're leaving Toronta, they wouldn't tell me all the details, just that they'd keep in touch."
"Sean, are you serious?"
"Dead serious." There was a slight pause.
" I've gotta go. Listen don't tell the police anything. Call you later." He hung up. **What has Manny done?** Emma thought as she plopped back on the lumpy bed a cried. Laurel, feeling that Emma needed time alone left the room.
