CHAPTER TWENTY: DEJECTION REFLECTION

Sean Cameron sighed hopelessly. He took the sheet off of his head. He was still at Miller Mansion, waiting for Paige to return.

He thought he really had something there. While pretending to be a ghost, he could really be himself. He thought Paige would understand and appreciate him for who he was, not who he pretended to be. In the end, she had betrayed that trust. He decided it was time to go back to school and find Emma. Maybe it was time to reveal himself to another human being…wearing nothing but his street clothes.

Sean tossed the ghost sheet aside and brushed himself off. He was lonely now. Lonely, and looking for some action.

"Emma, you're the only one for me! Not Manny! Not Ashley! Not Marco! You! I need you, and I can't hold it back anymore! Please…will you marry me?"

Sean was floored. He had just walked into school and heard the last half of the conversation. Craig…and Emma? His Emma? It couldn't be true!

Craig and Sean used to be friends. Good friends. That was until Sean had left him for the excitement of being in Jay's arms. But he still couldn't believe that Craig would do this kind of betrayal. Macking on his woman! Sure, Emma and Sean were Degrassi's biggest on-and-off, but their souls were conncted! It was in the cosmos! Written in the stars! Craig knew that, but still he pulled this stunt!

"Oh no you don't!" Sean screamed, a warrior's cry escaping his throat. He lunged at Craig. The latest battle to bless the halls of Degrassi Community School was on.
