Hi again, thanks for the reviews. I've been getting responses where people
want Lux and Jimmy to get together. We'll see, maybe I'll change the story
line as I go, but you never know. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to
review!

Lux took a deep breath to calm herself down as she headed down the steps, not really knowing where she was going. All she knew was that she was extremely bothered by Sean's comment. She knew that people would think of her as the good girl when she really wasn't. hell, she had been to rowdier parties than this one, and she had done her own fair share of crazy stunts. Just because she didn't smoke pot every chance she got didn't make her a bore to hang out with. Lux hated when people judged her that quickly, and obviously Sean was like that. I can't believe I actually thought he was cute. She quickly shrugged that idea out of her head and headed over to where Craig was standing. She gently tapped him on the shoulder, since he seemed to be pretty into a conversation with Elle.
"Craig, I just wanted to let you know I'm leaving now, so if Paige asks, just tell her for me ok?" Craig looked surprised.
"You're leaving? Already? But you just got here!"
"Yeah, I know, but I told my parents I'd make it an early night. They are still a little worried about me, you know, since I just got here." Craig nodded his head in understanding.
"Sure, ok, well, do you want me to walk you home or something?" he asked.
"No thanks, I'll be ok. Bye," lux said smiling as she made her way out the door. She crossed her arms in front of her, trying to shield the brisk wind from her body as she made her way briskly down the porch. She turning onto the sidewalk when she heard a heaving behind her. Lux startled and then turned around.
"Sean?" she asked recognizing the back on him, which was now keeled over. The boy managed to look up at her from his position, and it was Sean. And he was throwing up. "Are you ok?" she asked uncertainly.
"Oh yeah, I'm doing great," he answered snidely. Lux's eyes glared at him.
"Wow, I'm amazed, you can even manage to be obnoxious when you're puking your guts out," she snapped at him.
"Lux, I really don't need to hear you motherly advice right now about how pot and alcohol was bound to make me vomit ok, I already got that." He said returning her glare.
"Fine," she answered snappily and turned back around to head home. There is was again, that comparison to being a mother. She was labeled already. She quickly glanced back to see if he was watching her, but he wasn't. Emma was standing next to him, patting his back and handing him a glass of water, she presumed. Lux felt the blood rush to her head, but ignored it. Let Emma take care of him, she thought to herself. She can be his mother for all I care.

Manny had a problem. She had done everything in her power throughout her high school years to change her image, and she had accomplished it pretty successfully. Yet this was the last year for her to get the attention of the guy she wanted it from so badly. It was the last year because he would be graduating soon. Craig, the object of her affection, had managed to stay on a completely friendly basis with her for 5 years. After their disastrous first date, she was happy that the could be friends again. But then her crush began to kick in again. After he broke up with Ashley Kerwin, she thought she might even have a chance. He was single, and obviously looking to mingle.
Manny surveyed him from across the room. He was talking to Elle, laughing about something while Marco joined the conversation. Maybe she could join the conversation. Just as she was going to get up, Emma bounced in front of her.
"Good news Manny," she began, "Sean is outside throwing up." Manny looked confused,
"And that's good news how?" she asked. Emma realized her statement,
"oh no, that's not the good news. The good news is that I overheard him and Lux snapping at each other. In fact, it sounded like they hated each other. So now that's she's out of the picture, I don't have any other girls to worry about." Emma said smiling to herself.
"Oh yeah, great Emma, listen, what do you think about me and Craig?"
"You and Craig? Didn't that already end horribly when we were in 8th grade?" Manny rolled her eyes,
"yeah, but that's the point, it was 8th grade. That was four years from now! Don't you think we could have another shot or something?" Manny asked her friend hopefully. Emma looked over at Craig,
"Well that depends, has he shown any interest in you?"
"Well, we talk all the time, and what does that really matter anyways? Has Sean shown any real interest in you?" Manny snapped getting annoyed with her friend's pessimistic ways. Emma looked hurt,
"Of course he has Manny. And sean and I are different. We had an extremely successful relationship until I decided to break it off. And now that I look at it, that was an extremely stupid mistake. But I'm not going to let that happen again." Emma said with a dreamy look on her face. Suddenly it vanished, "OH! I was supposed to go get him some water! You know, cause he's sick and all," Emma said as she dashed up to go to the kitchen.
"emma, he's not sick, he's hung over!" Manny shouted at her friend's retreating back.
