A/N: This chapter contains the lyrics to the song I Honestly Love You by Olivia Newton John. I found it appropriate, b/c of Grease and all.

Emma just stood there in shock. Pregnant. Manny's only in grade 9, and SHE'S PREGNANT? Emma did the only thing she could, cry.
"Come talk to my mom, she's been in this situation before." Emma wiped the tears from her eyes.
"Do your parents know Manny?" Spike asked.
"No." Manny replied solemnly.
"You have to tell them, and then the three of you can decide whether or not you're going to keep the baby, okay."
"Mom, what about a miscarriage, is that still possible." Emma added.
"Oh, yes, Manny check with your doctor, he'll monitor the pregnancy. With all pregnancies there's a three month period that is questionable."
Emma looked into Manny's eyes. She looked terrified, her eyes were wide and bloodshot.
"Go home Manny, talk to your parents." Emma said, showing Manny out.

Why did he do it? Why did he kiss her? He had a girlfriend.
"I'm so stupid." Jimmy sighed.
He had to tell Emma.He didn't want to create another Ashley-Craig-Manny fiasco, he would just tell Emma exactly how it happened.
FLASHBACK TO TWO NIGHTS AGO AT SPINNERS HOUSE "So Jimmy Brooks...what do you think of the play?" Hazel asked.
"It's okay, It's hard playing two characters, but it's okay." Jimmy replied.
"It's funny, ya know, how our characters are like...in love." Hazel giggled.
"Yea."
"You know, I'm kinda having trouble with the whole dance scene."
"It's easy," Jimmy boasted "Let me show you."
They started dancing, and then she just kissed him. He returned the kiss and it quickly turned into full blown making out.
"Stop." Jimmy said realizing what he was doing. "I'm dating Emma."
"Do you love her?" Hazel asked seductively.
"Yes."
END FLASHBACK
"I can't believe it's finally opening night!" Terri beamed.
"I know, so much has happened, I almost forgot about the play." Emma laughed nervously.
"Em, I have to talk to you." Jimmy said pulling her aside.
"What's up?" Jimmy cracked. He told her the whole story, and just stepped back to watch her explode. She didn't. A single tear ran down her cheek as she walked over to Marco.
"Em, I'm so sorry." Marco consoled.
"I thought he loved me." Emma cried.
"He's a stupid little teenage boy, he doesn't know what love is." Ashley added.
"Let's just try to go out there and put on the best play there is." Marco said wrapping his arm around Emma's shoulder.

OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN: I HONESTLY LOVE YOU Maybe I hang around here A little more than I should We both know I got somewhere else to go But I've got something to tell you That I never thought I would And I believe you really ought to know I love you I honestly love you
I'm not trying to make you feel uncomfortable I'm not trying to make you anything at all But this feeling doesn't come along every day And you shouldn't blow the chance When you've got the chance to say I love you I honestly love you I honestly love you
If we both were born In another place and time This moment might be ending with a kiss But there you are with yours And here I am with mine So I guess we'll just be leaving it at this I love you I love you I honestly love you
