Rehearsal was going great. There was only about a month left until opening night. The cast was assigned the job of finding their own costumes for the play. So, that Saturday, Marco,Emma,Terri,Ashley,Hazel,Paige,Spinner and Jimmy went costume shopping.
"Where should we go?" Jimmy asked, clueless as where to find 50's clothing.
"There's a vintage store on Main Street we could check out." Ashley suggested.
After a few hours of shopping they finally settled on buying 5 fake leather jackets for the "T-Birds" and 5 pink jackets for the "pink ladies." Terri said she'd embroider the jackets and make poodle skirts. Hazel and Emma offered to help her.
"This play is going to be so cool." Emma remarked sitting down at a table with the cast at The Dot just as Craig walked in.
Ashley bolted to the door and Emma followed.
"I can't believe him." Ashley sobbed.
Emma motioned for her to sit down on a bench nearby.
"I know, I know. Think about how much better off you'll be without him." Emma comforted sitting down next to Ashley.
"But, he told me he loved me."
"That's just talk. He's still in high school. He doesn't know what love is. He's a jerk froget him." Emma went on to describe what she did at the rave, regarding Craig and Manny.
Ashley laughed. "You know Emma, you're pretty cool." Ashley said going back inside.
'Marco was right," Emma thought. "I don't need Manny, I have great friends right here." She smiled and proceeded inside.
Craig saw Ashley walk back inside and must've sensed her confidence, because he left.
"Bye-Bye." The group said to Craig's back in unison.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This play was a blessing in disguise. She'd met so many new people, and she kinda came out of her shell, too. She found a whole new person inside herself, one who was funny,outgoing and caring. She wondered why that person never came out when she was friends with Manny.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Emma, ready to go, we're gonna start work on the costumes at my house." Terri said as they all got up to leave.
"Yea, I'm coming." She replied.
"Hey Em I gotta go, I'll call you later." Marco said.
Emma left with Terri, Hazel, and Ashley to go work on costumes for the play. Emma had never made a skirt before, so she was a little nervous. Terri explained it, and it sounded pretty easy. The girls went to work.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whatever she had said to Ashley when Craig walked in, it really boosted her confidence. Marco was glad that Emma realized how much better off she is without Manny. The play really had done good for her.
"Marco." He turned around to find Ellie walking up behind him
"Hey El, what's up."
"Not much, just haven't seen much of you lately, you doing alright?" she sounded concerned.
"Fine, I've just had play, and you know."
"Yea, are you doing anything later? You should come over." she suggested.
"Ok, can I bring someone."
"Sure,who?"
"A friend."
"I'll see you at like, 6?"
"Ok."
Marco went home to call Emma and ask if she could go to Ellie's with him.
"Ok Mr. Simpson, can you have her call me back." Marco hung up.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emma walked home satisfied. She didn't think her skirt came out as well as Terri's but it was a good first try. When she got home Snake told her to call Marco.
"Hello." Marco answered.
"It's Emma."
"Oh, hey...do you wanna go to Ellie's with me tonight?"
"Sure."
"Ok, I'll come bye your house at like 5:30, we can walk over together."
"Bye Marco." She hung up.
"Where should we go?" Jimmy asked, clueless as where to find 50's clothing.
