Manny picked up the phone. "Hello?" Shea asked.

"Manny," came the voice on the other end," Manny is that you?"

"Em? Emma are you okay?" Manny asked her friend with concern in her voice.

"Yeah, Im fine, but I have a question," Emma went on," Chris asked me out, and I said yes, but see he wants to go out TONIGHT! Can u believe that, TONIGHT! I have no diea what I should wear!"

"Em, relax," Manny laughed," Do you want me to come over?"

"Could you?" Asked a desperate Emma. The two girls talked for another minute before Manny told Emma she was coming over. She hung up the phone and went downstairs to find her mom.

"Mom, can I go over to Emma's? She needs help for a big date she has with Chris tonight." Manny asked.

Mrs. Santos looked up from her newspaper," Sure you can hunny. Tell Emma I wish her luck. This Chris person seems like a nice guy, not like the old boy.. Sean. I think he was bad news. Make sure you're home by 7:30 for dinner." Manny nodded and walked to the front door, she looked into the large living room to see her little sister, Kyla. She was watching a television show, she seemed to be watching intenly. She was wrong.

"Man? Manny is that you?" her little sister asked. Manny smiled to herself. Kyla was only 7 but she already looked 10. She looked exactly like Manny.

"Yeah, Ki, it's me. I'm just going to Emma's. I will be back to read you a story before you go to bed."

" Thanks Man. You always tell teh best stories. Tell Emma I say hi! Oh, Man! Can I go with you?" the little girl asked excitedly.

"No Ki, not this time. Emma has a date tonight, she needs my help! Maybe Mommy needs some help in the kitchen with the dinner?" Manny asked.

"Eww, Emma had a boyfriend. Boys have cooties! I will never, ever kiss a boy!" Kyla ran off towards the kitchen, spitting air as she went. Manny laughed, she'll learn one day she told herself.She grabbed her winter coat, and opened the door. She stepped out into the chilly December air. She loved winter, snow was so beautiful. Only if I had someone to spend this Christmas with. Manny thought to herself. Before she knew it she was at Emma's front door, knocking. Mr. Simpson opened the door.

"Oh Manny! I'm glad you came. " he greeted her with a smile.

"Hi, Mr. Simpson. Is Emma home?"

"Yeah, she's been waiting for you. She has been making herself a nervous wreck about her date with Chris tonight. She's upstairs, go on up." he told her.

Manny hung her coat up, and started up the stairs. She stated thinking. It was only two months after Emma's and Sean's breakup. At first, it was hard for Emma, it took a few long talks with her four closest friends until she felt better about the whole situation. The five freinds: Emma, Manny, JT, Toby, and Liberty (A/N: Yes Liberty, you read right.) had many converstaions about how Emma deserved better, and how Sean had never treatyed her as well as he should of. Manny was glad Emma was over that jerk. Now, she was on to Chris, a nice guy in her eyes. Plus, they are adorable together.

Manny walked further, passing the bathroom, the laundry room, and Little Jack's room before reaching Emma's room. She knocked on the door, and then twisted the door knob, letting herself in. " Em, it's.... Oh my gosh! What happened in here? Your room is a mess, and you, you look horrible!" Manny exclaimed looking at Emma.

Emma smiled," Gee, thanks. But Manny, I'm so glad you came! I dont know what I'm going to do., I am stressing myself out, and I don't know what I should wear!" Emma said getting out of breath.

"Relax, Em. That's what I'm here to help with," Manny winked, and grabbed her friends arm,a nd dragged her towards her closet.

Well that's all of chapter one. Sorry if it was short! Please review, and tell me if I should even bother writing anymore! Have a good summer everyone! Me!
