"Manny, this is Spike. What's up?" rang Emma's mom's voice through the phone.
"Umm...I have a favor to ask you. Can I meet you tomorrow?"
"Ok, what's good for you?"
"Can I come over after school?"
"Umm...I have to work then, but if you'll come over at about...6 I'll be there."
"That works for me. While I have you on the phone do you mind if I talk to Emma?"
"Sure, I don't mind, but I'm not so sure about Emma. Look, I don't know what exactly happened between you two, but I would love to see you resolve your differences."
"If you really want to know she walked in on me making out with Craig, and she got mad at me. So, I called her a prude princess, and she called me the school slut. Look, I know that I deserved it, and I know that I really hurt her feelings. I feel horrible about it, and I want to take the initiative to try to even come close to making all the crappy stuff that I did up to her. I know that it's not much, but I want to apologize. Please try to get her to talk to me."
"I'll try. All I knew was that you really hurt her feelings, but I know that you feel really bad about it. Whatever you need my help with I'll try to help you. I just hope that the reason that you're trying to make up with her isn't because you need something from me, and you think that it'll be easier for me to want to help you if you're friends with my daughter."
"I will admit that it will be easier to be around you, and to get your help if Emma, and I are friends again, but for the past few months I have missed her so much. I also feel horrible that I said what I said, and I know what she said was true. I've been trying to get up the guts to apologize for a long time. I think that now is as good a chance as any."
"Well, then I admire your drive. I'll go see if she'll talk to you. One second."
In the background Manny could heard Spike calling Emma's name, and Emma refusing to talk to Manny. She just wished that she had never even thought about becoming the horrible person that she was. Couldn't she have just been the good little girl that she had always been? What she meant was...what had she been thinking. She had lost the best friend that she had ever had, she had slept around, and as a result of sleeping around she had become pregnant by a guy that didn't even want one thing to be with his child.
On the other end of the phone J.T. was looking at Manny, as if to say...'well, what's going on?' It was then that she just to thinking about how much she still had. She had gained a huge friendship with J.T. that she never thought would happen, and she was about to become a mother. She was thinking that no matter what happened that she would always have this baby to look at, and know that she would never have to be alone anymore when out of the blue she heard a voice on the other end of the line.
"What do you want?" came the cold drawl of Emma's angry voice.
"Look Emma, please talk to me. I feel so horrible about everything that I did to you. Please let me know what there is that I can do to make it up to you. I will do anything that you want me to."
"Well, there is nothing that you can do that will even remotely pay for what you did to me."
"Can you please give me a shot, because I will try anything to make in up to you. I mi "Well, there is nothing that you can do that will even remotely pay for what you did to me."
"Can you please give me a shot, because I will try anything to make in up to you. I miss you Em."
"I guess that I can give you one more chance, but understand me now. If you ever do something to me again I will never talk to you again. I don't want you to hurt me again. Look, I missed you too Manny."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I mean...you were my best friend, and I lost you. Then, I lost Sean. I just wanted my best friend to be there for me, and you weren't. I'm just so glad that I have you back. Just please don't do anything like that again."
"I won't...so do you want to start over, and act like none of this ever happened?"
"I guess."
"Look, Emma. Before you completely forgive me there is something that I have to tell you. I can't tell you now...I have to tell you in person."
"Ok, but you had better not have done anything else to me."
"I didn't."
"Ok, good."
"Well, I'll talk to you tomorrow?"
"Yeah, tomorrow."
Hey, thanks for the reviews, I might get a lot written today, so it you read it today let me know what you think of it, so that I can put your thoughts into it. Ttyl.
