Chapter FOUR

The next day, before school, Toby & Emma are at the front steps, impatiently

waiting for J.T. & Manny. "Emma! Quit pacing! I'm getting more nervous!" Toby

snapped. Emma snapped back with, "If you could keep your mouth shut, maybe I

wouldn't be pacing so much!" They both looked at each other & laughed. "I can't believe

we're so worried about them being mad at us!" Toby said. "I know! They probably

aren't!" Emma said. A couple of seconds later, they spot J.T. & Manny. "Are they..

holding hands?!" Toby asked, shocked. "I think they are!!" Emma stated, quite as

shocked. J.T. & Manny laughed when they saw both Toby's & Emma's jaws drop at the

sight of them holding hands. "Um.. What's going on here?!" Emma & Toby asked

simultaneously. "Well, since you decided to leave the third wheels out.." J.T. started.

"We became our own set of wheels!" Manny said, finishing the sentence. At that

moment, Sean walked up to them, looked down at J.T's & Manny's interlocked fingers &

said, "It's about time you guys hooked up! I've predicted this relationship since I first

met you guys!" Sean said matter-of-factly. "Anyways, Emma, can I talk to you real

quick?" he asked, looking at her like what he needs to talk about is really important.

"Um.. sure." Emma said, not quite sure what he wants to talk about. After they excused

themselves from the group, Sean asked, "Remember how we saw that guy with Paige at

the mall yesterday?" "Oh yea, I remember." Emma said. "Well, should I tell Spinner? I

know that he has the right to know, but I don't want to get in the middle of it.." Sean said.

"Well, I think you should tell him. You ARE his friend. He should believe you." Emma

said convincingly. After thinking about what she said, Sean said, "Yea, you're right. I'll

tell him." At that moment, the bell rang & with a quick hug & kiss, they went off to their

separate classes.
