Sean Cameron and Emma Nelson had been broken up for almost two years. It was the 10th grade for Sean and the 9th grade for Emma. They hadn't spoke or seen each other either since their break-up. Emma saw at the mall once, but didn't bother to say hi. She was too scared to fall back in love with him.

First week of the last marking period of school was almost over. Sean was walking with some of his friends when he saw Emma Nelson. He didn't want her to seem him.....

"Sean... Sean Cameron?" Too late.

"Hey, Emma." Sean kept walking.

"Sean...wait..." Sean stopped. The bell would ring any minute and he couldn't be late again for auto shop. "Sean... I was hoping that when I saw you this year... maybe we could be friends. Or try to start a friendship."

"Yeah... sure... whatever..." Sean looked around. "Hey Spin! Wait up." He jogged up to Spin. Then they ran to class. Sean was really nervous to see Emma. He liked her but... not actually like her. He wanted a friendship. It was better than avoiding her. He was so confused. Sean decided to talk to Craig about it. After Ashley dumped him, he got a new girlfriend... Natalia.

"Hey Craig...Nat... wait up." Sean said as he saw the love birds walking to lunch.

"Hey Sean. You look like you need a hug." Natalia gave Sean a hug. Craig raised an eyebrow.

"Uh, thanks. Actually I need some advice."

"Sure. Go ahead."

"Well... It turns out that Emma is here this year. She wants to be friends."

"Do you want to be... friends?" Craig asked. He kinda knew how Sean felt, if he felt the same, because before Natalia and he got together officially, they were just friends.

"Yeah I want to be just friends with her... but I think she wants to be more."

"Dude, how many times have you talked her?" Natalia asked.

"Once." Natalia and Craig looked at each other then Sean. "But I know because she used the same voice two years ago when she wanted to be together...again."

"You need to just talk to her. See how things go to make sure that it is just friends too." Natalia smiled. "Have I said how much I love you lately?" She kissed Craig and Craig kissed her back.

"Yeah... thanks for the...uh... 'advice' with that." Sean walked to lunch.

Taking Craig and Natalia's advice, Sean decided to call Emma. When he called, she almost sounded excited and happy.

"Hey Emma. Um, I was just wondering if you wanted to hang out this weekend. Like go to the movies or something."

"Sure. Sounds great. Oh... listen I gotta go. I'll talk to you tomorrow at school." She hung up. Sean sighed.

The next day at school, Sean and Emma passed but didn't say hello. At lunch, things were a little twisted. He over heard Emma and Manny talking.

"... and then he asked to go to the mall this weekend." Emma almost squealed. Manny smiled really big. Her eyes were wide.

"So... you guys have a date?" Manny whispered. She sounded sick.

"I think so... it's just... I can't believe I have feelings for him... again."

Sean continued to walk. This was bad. This was really bad.

"Craig, she likes me! That wasn't supposed to happen. My change was supposed to repel her." Sean said as he sat down. He didn't notice Craig and Natalia kissing. "Ugh! What do I have to do to..." Sean looked over and saw Craig and Natalia kissing. "Oh..."

"Like I said... talk to her. Of course... It is your fault that she thinks you asked her out on a date." Natalia responded once Sean had retold his story.

The weekend came fast. It was Saturday. Sean and Emma were at the movies. The only problem Sean had was seeing a romantic/horror movie. The movie felt like forever. Emma kept leaning closer to him in her seat. Sean kept getting up to "use the bathroom" or "get some food." Emma left once the entire movie.

"Em, can I asked you something?"

"Of course, Sean, what is it?"

"We are just friends right?" Sean hoped.

"Well...uh... yeah... I guess so."

"Ok, good. I mean I... well... I just don't want to start anything... any time soon."
