(( A/N: Sorry I haven't updated for while. But I'm updating now, so be happy! ; ) I still haven't decided if I should make Emma pregnant or not, because I have had one reply saying that making Emma pregnant, would ruin the story. But most people want Emma to become pregnant, for varies reasons. So I'm hoping that the decision I make isn't the wrong one. Well, enough talking, lets get on to chapter 5! ))

Disclaimer: NO! Only the plot!

Title: The Party of the Year -- Chapter 5: Getting There

'I stayed in my room most of the time. But it has only been a day since it happened. Mom is going psycho, because I never come out of my room. Snake is just the same. I want to talk to someone, but I can't. I feel, that they won't believe me, or think less of me. I knew there was one person I could talk to, but that one person hates me, and I hate him..............'

(MANNY)

'Thinking of Jimmy, and my mom was weird and confusing. Thinking about Jimmy, my supposive "boyfriend," then my thoughts being interrupted with thoughts of my MOTHER! It's like, thinking about the good and the bad. An example; the school day is almost over, so you are thinking about the good, and then for some reason, you starting thinking about the bad, going to school the next day. Weird and confusing, huh? Well, anyway, now thinking about this is interrupting my other thoughts, well I'm confusing myself again.'

"Manny! Honey, are you okay?" Manny's mom asked as she knocked her bedroom door.

"I'm fine mom!" Manny said rolling her eyes.

"You left so soon we didn't get a chance to talk."

"To talk about what? There is nothing to talk about! Your pregnant, that's it." Manny said.

"I just feel we should talk about it, you seemed upset." Manny's mom replied.

Manny was really starting to get irritated with her mom. "I'm not upset! And I don't need to talk to anyone! It's not a big deal!" Manny said loudly.

"Manny don't take that tone with me! I'm just concerned."

"Well, don't be. I'm fine."

"Fine. I'll leave you alone, just calm down and don't take that tone with me again." Manny's mom said, then walked away.

"Whatever." Manny mumbled. By then Manny was done getting dressed and ready to head out to Jimmy's house. She walked out her door, and headed out her front door.

"Manny, where do you think you are going?" Manny's mom asked, stopping her from leaving.

"Um, I'm going over to Emma's house." Manny lied.

"Well, I can take you, it's dark outside." Manny's mom offered.

Manny didn't object, because she knew if she did, her mom would call Emma's mom making sure she was there. And seeing Manny wouldn't be there, that wouldn't be too good of an idea. "Yeah, thanks mom." Manny said.

"Okay, just let me grab my purse and I'll meet you in the car." Manny's mom said as she smiled.

(EMMA)

'Maybe, I should talk to him. No! I won't! He won't listen to me anyway. He'd shut the door in my face. Maybe it would be easier to talk to Manny.......'

(MANNY)

"Well, thanks for dropping me off mom." Manny said to her mother.

"Do you need me to pick you up?" Manny's mom asked.

"No, I'll be all right, I'll just walk."

"Manny, I don't know if I feel comfortable with you walking home late at night alone."

"Then Emma can walk me home."

"Then she will have to walk by herself."

"MOM! I'll be fine! You don't need to worry so much!" (sound familiar?)

"Fine, but only because I trust you, and because you need to calm down."

"I'm calm, I'm just tired of you giving me the third degree all the time!" Manny said. And got out of the car and waited for her mom to drive away.

'Okay, she's gone.' Manny decided to go over to Emma's house, she didn't want her mom calling Emma or something and get caught, so she decided she'd tell Emma what she was doing.

Manny knocked on the door. Then a short, dark haired, woman answered the door.

"Well, hi Manny!" Christine Simpson said as she smiled.

"Hi Ms. Nelson, I mean Mrs. Simpson." Manny said blushing.

Christine just laughed and said, "That's okay. Emma's in her room downstairs, but she has been there all day. Good luck getting her out, or getting in."

"She should let me in. I guess we'll see." Manny said walking in and making her way to Emma's bedroom door. Manny knocked on Emma's door.

"Emma, it's me, Manny. Can I come in?" Manny asked. Manny was getting ready to turn around, until the door opened.

"Hi Manny. Come in." Emma said.

"I won't be here long, I wanted to talk to you." Manny said. "I'm going to be walking over to Jimmy's, I wanted to tell you that if my mom comes back over or calls tell her I'm in the bathroom or something. Okay?"

"Yeah, sure. What do you mean back? Emma asked.

"My mom dropped me off here. I told her that I was coming here, and she offered to drive me. I knew she wouldn't let me go to Jimmy's so, I just let her bring me here. That is okay, isn't it?" Manny said.

"Oh, yeah, whatever. I'll tell her, if I talk to her. Do you want to see if my mom can drop you off at Jimmy's?" Emma said, trying to hide her hurt and sadness.

"I wouldn't want her to go out of her way. It's late." Manny said.

"She won't mind. Come on, I'll ask her." Emma and Manny made their way upstairs into the kitchen, where Spike was putting the dishes away.

"Mom," Emma waited for a reply.

"Emma!" Emma's mom smiled. "It's good to see you." Spike laughed a little.

Emma had to smile at that. "Yeah, um, can you drop Manny off at Jimmy's?"

"Yeah, sure, just let me finish putting these last dishes away."

"Thanks Ms. Nelson, I mean Mrs. Simpson. Sorry." Manny said.

Spike laughed. "It's okay Manny."

--

Manny sat in the car. "Thanks......Mrs. Simpson, for driving me here." Manny said.

"Your welcome, Manny. It was no trouble." Spike said. "Do you want me to pick you up?"

"No, that's okay, but you've done enough. Thanks Mrs. Simpson." Manny said.

"Okay and your welcome Manny." Manny was getting ready to get out when Spike said something to Manny.

"Oh, and Manny " Spike said.

"Yes Mrs. Simpson?"

"Call me Christine. I've told you that before." Spike smiled.

Manny smiled too. "Okay. Bye Christine, bye Emma." Manny got out of the car.

(( A/N : Yes I know this chapter sucked, but I didn't want to make it so long, it was boring, no matter how good or bad it was. But did you get some hints with some things that were said? Well, anyway, tell me who you think Emma is talking about, and whether you think Emma should be pregnant. Yes, I know, I've told you a lot, but remember the little thing I told you about, someone saying her being pregnant would ruin the story? Well, there is a twist. Tell me whether or not it would ruin the story, AND WHY OR WHY NOT. I'll post a new chapter when I get 35 reviews. Or when I can. ))
