CH8
The next day at school, Manny came walked over to Jake who was standing by his locker, "Jake, I am so sorry about yesterday."
"Manny, you've had a baby. I like you, but it's weird that if we ever got together to know that my girlfriend had a baby."
"I know but..."
Melody swung her arm around Jake, "Well Manny, good thing that you were a slut back in your old school, because now I Jake all for me." Melody and Jake walked off to their class leaving Manny standing there stunned.
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Craig met up with Ashley in the hall, "So Ash, tonight, band practice, want to come? I have something for you."
Ashley smiled, "Sure." She grabbed Craig's jacket collar and pulled him into a kiss.
Craig walked to his locker where there he saw Jimmy, "Jimmy hey."
"Oh man Craig, you and Ash? Back together? Then what are you going to break up with her again? Dude you're hardcore." Jimmy said smiling and puching Craig in the shoulder lightly.
"Actually Jimmy, I'm not going to break her heart again. I'm not plotting revenge on her anymore."
"Dude, you suck!"
"Well she's coming over to watch us practice, just like old times. Cool huh?"
"Whatever."
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
The entire day of school has been a disaster for Manny. It was just like an ordinary day at Degrassi.
Before going into 3rd period, she ditched school and ran home. There she saw her mom looking for another job. Manny sat at the table across from her mom, "Mom, can we move back to Degrassi? I miss it there, I mean at least poeple talked to me."
Her mom looked at her, "Manuela, make up your mind, stay here, or go back to Degrassi for good?"
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Ashley was holding Angie in her arms while Craig was practicing with the band, "Ok, Ash, we've been practicing a song by Hoobastank, and now, I dedicate this song to you."
I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you
I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you
Craig blew Ashley a kiss when the song was over, "I love you Ash."
Ashley stood up and gave Craig a hug. Craig picked her up and spun her around. Spinner and Marco watched laughing, but Jimmy stood there looking annoyed.
Craig held Ashley in his arms, "Craig, that was sweet, thank you."
"Yea, and you'll be more surprise come Christmas, which is in a few days."
"So come over."
Craig smiled, "Come over?"
"Yea, I have a very special present to give you."
Spinner stood up, "Ash, are you and Craig gonna have sex!?"
Ashley looked at Craig and kissed him.
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Jt felt lonely now that he heard about Ashley and Craig back together. Jt had his hands in his pockets with his head hanging down walking down to Manny's old house. He looked up and saw a huge trucked unloading furniture. Jt ran over to the porch and saw Manny walk out crying.
"Manny!" Jt gave Manny a huge hug, "Oh Manny, I thought that you'd never come back. I've missed you so much and why am I the only one who is happy?"
"Hi Jt."
"Manny what's wrong?"
"Jt, I wish that you could have met Alex."
"Me too, so lets go inside so I could."
"No Jt, you can't."
"Manny?"
"I'll make a long story short, I killed my own baby."
Jt's mouth dropped, "Oh Manny, I'm so sorry."
Manny stood in Jt's arms crying.
Jt led Manny inside her home and into her room that had all her stuff set out. Jt walked Manny over to her bed, "How did you kill your baby?"
"I'd rather not say, it's so selfish of me."
"C'mon"
"Okay, well, this guy came over, and I didn't want us to be disturbed by Alex crying, so I gave him a sleeping pill. But since he was only 3 months old, he couldn't take it, so the doctors put him to sleep so he wouldn't suffer."
"Manny..."
"I know..." Manny stood up and started walking around her room, "I'm a complete idiot and I'm selfish, oh yea, and I'm a slut!"
"Don't say that. I don't think that you're those things at all."
Manny walked over to Jt, "You don't?" Her crying all of a sudden stopped.
"Of course not."
Manny started smiling as she started unbuttoning her shirt.
"Umm... Manny what are you doing?"
"Isn't this what you've been wanting?"
"Manny, you're only doing this because you're sad, this isn't right."
Manny took her shirt off and threw it onto the floor.
As Jt saw her bra he closed his eyes and walked to the door, "I'll be leaving now."
Manny ran to the door and locked it, "You won't be going anywhere."
Jt looked around her room and ran into her closet, "Manny, maybe you should just leave and then I'll be going."
Manny walked to the door, opened it and then shutting it so Jt thought that she left.
Jt opened the closet door and Manny pushed his against a wall, "Are you scared of me?"
"Yes." Jt closed his eyes so he wouldn't be in Manny's trance.
Manny pressed her lips on Jt's. Jt couldn't help but kiss back.
Jt opened his eyes and saw Manny smiling, "There. Was that so hard Jt?"
"No nott really."
Manny led Jt to her bed and locked the door.
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
An hour later Emma came knocking loudly on Manny's door, "Manny! Oh my God! Are you really here? Open the door!"
Manny looked at Jt who was smiling, "Jt, you better hide before Emma sees you." Jt picked up his clothes and ran into her closet. Manny opened the door and Emma quickly embraced her, "Manny, I'm so glad to see you."
"Yea, likewise."
"But I have some news to tell you."
"Okay."
"Well, while you were gone, Craig apologized to Ashley about something and now they're together again."
"What? Ashley backstabbed me? She new that I still had feelings for him!" After yelling Manny looked over at the closet.
Jt slowly walked out, fully dressed, and didn't look at Manny. Jt, as fast as he could, ran down the stairs and out of the house.
Emma looked at Manny, "What is Jt doing in your closet?"
"Uh Em, I'll talk to you later." Manny chased Jt, "Jt!"
Jt stopped and walked to Manny, "Did you use me for sex?!"
"Of course not."
"You know what? You are everything you think you are."
Manny started crying and ran back to her room.
Emma looked over at Manny as she heard the door shut, "Manny, what's wrong?"
¿?¿?¿?¿?¿?
Craig was over at Ashley's having dinner, just the two of them, "Ash, you made this yourself?"
"Of course, enjoy."
A loud knocking came to the door that made Craig and Ashley both jump. Ashley looked at Craig, "Who could that be?"
"I don't know, what me to answer?"
"Um, no I'll do it, just eat."
Ashley walked over to the door and as soon as she opened it she was pushed back. Craig jumped out of his seat and helped her up.
Manny came barging into the house crying, "YOU BITCH! YOU KNEW I STILL HAD FEELINGS FOR CRIAG! SO YOU GO BEHIND MY DAMN BACK AND GO BACK OUT WITH HIM!"
Ashley started backing away as Manny was approaching her, "Calm down Manny, I never intended to be with him again!"
Craig jumped in the middle of them, "Manny, listen, I love Ash."
Manny stopped walking forward, "WHY? WHAT ABOUT EVERYTHING WE'VE DONE TOGETHER? I TOUGHT YOU CHOSE ME!"
"Well, things changed."
Manny reached behind her and pulled out a gun and held it to her head. Craig and Ashley's eyes widened and mouths dropped.
Craig took a small step forward, "Manny what are you doing?"
"I'M DONE WITH EVERYTHING! THE SEX! THE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT ME, CALLING ME A SLUT! BE LONELY AND DEPRESSED! I'M DONE WITH ALL THIS SHIT THAT IS HAPPENING IN MY LIFE!"
Ashley put her hand on Craig's back at he took another small step towards Manny, "Manny please, you don't want to do this."
"OH YES I DO! I ALWAYS HAVE AND NOW YOU GET TO WITNESS IT!"
"Manny."
"I MEAN! I FUCKING KILLED MY OWN BABY! HOW DO YOU THINK I FEEL! I WANT TO DIE!" Manny gripped the gun harder about to shoot.
Ashley started crying and turned away, "I can't watch."
Craig looked at Manny in her eyes, "Manny give me the gun."
Manny dropped the gun and fell to the floor crying even more, she looked up at Craig, her face completely wet from all her tears, "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
Craig picked up the gun and ran to the kitchen trying to unload it.
Ashley looked at Manny and sat down beside her, "I'm sorry."
Wow! Well please review and tell me what you thought about that!
