****A/N*** Thank you guys for the reviews. I'm glad to hear that I actually
have some people who came back and continued reading! I'm really having a
good time writing this, and I hope you guys are having just as much fun
reading! Enjoy : )
A got a few individual shout outs I'd like to make, so here goes!
x Confused Girl x- I'm glad you're enjoying it more now : ) I'm one of the
few how love constructive criticism. I've always said that to become a
better writer you need to know your weaknesses so that you can fix them!
Cynderz- thank you so much for your upbeat review! I do take Ellie being
like Lauren as a huge compliment. Only because I hadn't seen any episodes
with Ellie in them except for the beach one (which she wasn't in too much
of anyways) when I started writing this. I've only seen Degrassi about 5
times, actually! Lol. And I figured it was pretty cool that this character
was a bit like her. There are some major differences, but their cores are
scarily familiar! I would LOVE to read your fanfic when you put it up!
Email me when you do. Oh yes, and I put some Jimmy up in here for ya. Lol
Actually in my next fanfic (the sequel to this one) He'll be a pretty major
character, so stay tuned! Lol ***
Lauren took a look at herself in the mirror and sighed. She was so nervous. She wanted this to work more than anything. She grabbed a jacket and headed out. Walking brusquely, it only took about 10 minutes to get to the theater.
"Hey guys." Lauren greeted Craig, Manny, Emma, Jimmy, Spinner and Paige.
"Hey Lauren, can we talk for a sec?" Emma asked, pulling her aside. "Look, I really don't want you to stop seeing Sean. I'm over it now. Really. I thought about it a lot this afternoon after Manny told me what happened, I guess I kind of realized that nothing can happen between me and him anyways. We have too much history. And besides, I already dumped him, if you dump him too, he might just become suicidal! I mean, come on now, look at what he's lost!" Emma said in a rush, ending with a smile. Lauren could tell she had been planning what she was going to say.
"Emma, I don't want you to just say that."
"No. I really mean it."
Lauren grimaced. "But what if he won't have anything to do with me? I wouldn't blame him. I've been so mean to him!"
Emma smiled. "I don't think that will be a problem."
"Hey Emma, I've been thinking too, and I thought that maybe it would be easier for you to get over Sean, if you had someone else" Lauren said gently.
"True. But I don't think Craig is into me-"
"Eh, I wasn't thinking Craig. I duno, I see you more with Jimmy."
"Jimmy?"
"Yeah, he's really cute."
"Well, yeah, but-"
"But what? I think you should go for it."
"Maybe your right...okay. Maybe I will."
"Awesome."
"Oh, excuse me; I just remembered...I gotta go!" Emma said quickly, leaving Lauren confused. Then she realized what caused Emma to spaz when she glanced behind her. Sean was standing like 5 feet away at the door to the cinema, looking for the group. She rushed over to him.
"Sean..."
"Look, I don't have anything to say to you. I don't want to be friends."
"Neither do I."
Sean looked at her. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means...Emma and I had a talk."
"Well, I'm sure you did, your all buddy buddy now, right?"
"Just listen for a sec Sean! We had a talk about you. Emma heard that I broke it off because of her and she did some thinking and she told me that I didn't have to do that and that I needed to get you back."
"Well I'm not just some toy you can discard and then pick up when it's convenient." Sean said, going to walk away.
"Sean." Lauren pleaded with him, putting her hand on his shoulder, looking deep into his eyes. "I promise that all the drama is over. Please just give me one more chance."
"One more chance?" He asked, turning so his whole body faced her.
"Please?" Lauren asked, taking both his hands in hers.
"Well...only if you can make it up to me." he said, smiling sheepishly.
Lauren put her arms around his neck and pulled him close to her and, without a word, kissed him.
***Well it's been fun kids, but now it's over! lol. Actually I've already started a sequel, so if you leave your email address in your review then I'll email you when I put it up, which should be sometime this week. For those of you interested in what the couples (start out) as; here goes: Lauren/Sean. Craig/ Manny, Emma/Jimmy, Spinner/Paige and a few new ones coming your way. Thanks for the support!***
