Jay didn't know what he wanted so he asked her, "What are you doing here?"

"What am I doing here? I should ask you the same thing?" Erin wonders why Jay would ask her that. "Jay, why did you do it? Why did you leave without telling me where you were going?"

"I didn't want to talk to you after Drew died."

"Why not? Didn't you think I'd understand?"

"No I didn't," he was getting ready to yell. "How could you understand? He was my brother not my old boyfriend of three months. You wouldn't what it's like to lose someone you love."

That statement made Erin feel like she had just been punched in the stomach. It caused her to slap Jay hard across the face, "Don't you dare say I don't know what it's like!! I was heartbroken when Drew dumped me for losers who steal whatever they want. We both lost someone we love. I know it hurts. It hurts more to lose two people you love. It kills when you best friend moves away without telling you where he's going. But when he comes back and says you wouldn't know the feeling of grief over a loved one, you're living in hell. It's worse than death Jay. How could you?"

"I'm sorry. That was a selfish thing to say."

"I'm not just talking about what you just said. How could you deal with your brother's death by being like the losers he hung out with?"

She was still in tears as she was leaving, but Jay grabbed her wrists gave a good grip (not an abusive way but tight enough so she can't pull away), "Don't you ever talk about how I dealt with Drew's death because it wasn't a way of 'dealing' it was who I became when he died. And I'm that same guy now, but I'm over his death."

Erin wanted to tell him that he's not that guy and that it was his way of dealing, but she couldn't argue with him. Instead, she said firmly, "Let go of me." He let go of her and she went home. Neither of them realized it, but Amy, Towerz, Paige, Hazel, and Ellie were all watching them from the window.

The next day, Sean and Emma worked on Romeo and Juliet together in English class.

"You should use a bottle instead of a goblet" said Emma. "What do you think?"

"Sure. And dress like you were in the 21st century," said Sean. "Yeah. Let's work on the dialogue. You can say something like, 'How could my Juliet be dead?' then he drinks it," said Emma. For the rest of class, Sean and Emma changed the dialogue.

When the bell rang, Mrs. Kwan said, "I suggest you all work together at home. It's due next week. We'll be performing for other classes."

"Sean, do you wanna work on this at lunch today?" asked Emma.

"Well I'll be at lunch with Ellie again. Maybe after school," said Sean.

"Okay," Emma went over to Manny who still thinks she still likes Sean.

Sean sits with Ellie, Marco Dylan, and Ashley, "Hey," he kisses Ellie. "Wassup?" he tells Dylan, Marco, and Ashley. They all smile.

"Sean, do you want to get together after school?" Ellie asked.

"Oh. I can't. I told Emma I'd rehearse with her."

"Oh. Okay," Ellie still wasn't so comfortable with Sean and Emma together, but she didn't say anything.

"Did you hear about Jay and the new girl? Manny's cousin?" said Ashley.

"Yeah. I saw them," said Ellie.

"What did you her? Did they get into a fight?" said Marco.

"Close," Ellie said. "She slapped him."

"So why's that good gossip?" Dylan asked.

"Well he must have said something to make her want to slap him," Sean said. "Knowing Jay, of course he did something." They all turn to look at Paige, Hazel, and Erin together.

Like Ellie, Paige wants to know what happened at the Dot, "I saw you out there with Jay. What happened?" Paige asked.

Erin realized they were in front of the window, "Nothing."

"You slapped Jay. That's not 'nothing.' And he grabbed you. What did he do?"

"You don't need to know," Erin said not looking Paige in the eye.

"Yes I do! Erin, you're my friend and if you slap someone he obviously did something."

"Jay didn't do anything to me! I don't even know him," lied Erin. "You know what? I have to go. I'll see you later." She walks out. Paige wasn't convinced at all.

"Hazel, what do you think is wrong?"

"I don't know but Manny might," they look at her and Emma. Paige goes over to them.

"Santos, we need to talk. It's about your cousin."

"What about her?"

"It's Jay. We saw her slap him and tried to leave but he grabbed her."

"I don't know what you're talking about. Do you think Jay's hurting her?"

"I don't know but she doesn't even know him."

"I'll go talk to her," Manny said. She walks out of the cafeteria and sees Erin by her locker. "Erin, what happened?"

"I don't want to talk about," Erin said. Manny was hurt because her own cousin wouldn't talk to her about her problems and Erin noticed, "Look. I'm not ready to talk about this, but when I am, I will. I promise." They hug and Jay walks by with Alex. Their eyes meet for a spilt second.

At the end of the day, Emma and Sean walk home together.

"So should we rehearse at my house?" Emma asks.

"It doesn't matter."

"Okay," When they get there, they rehearse right away and Emma's lying on her couch.

"Oh my god! How can my Juliet be dead?" Sean said as the modernized Romeo, "I have to be with you. I love you." He drinks the "poison" from his bottle and "dies." Emma wakes up and sees "Romeo" dead.

"Rome? Rome? You drank poison! Why didn't you leave some for me?" She kisses him and finds herself kissing Sean and not Romeo. When she's done, she takes a fake knife and stabs herself. They both get up, and go outside for a walk.

"That was really good Sean. I didn't know how great of an actor you are," said Emma.

"Thanks," Sean could tell that Emma was waiting for him to compliment her back, "What? You sucked."

Emma got playful and was about to hit Sean but he ran and she chased. They were both laughing and Emma pushed him to the ground. She fell on top of him and they were both laughing. But Emma looked into Sean's eyes and kissed him. Sean was lost in this kiss, but remembered who he was kissing.

"Emma, I can't do this. I have girlfriend," he gets her off top of him. "I'm sorry. I have to go."
