The dawn is breaking...

A light shining through...

You're barely waking...

And I'm tangled up in you.

Emma Nelson rolled groggily out of her nest-like bed. She walked over to her bathroom and turned the shower on. The warm water was hitting her back gently, she was letting it wash everything away…she was letting it wash Sean away.

Sean had been gone since last year, Emma continued to go down to the ravine with Jay in her time of grief. She had just recently told Jay she couldn't do it anymore. Emma was allowing her mind to drift to things that were not related to Sean. Like the shooting. Although Emma had gotten rid of her reputation of being the girl that almost got kill, she was still grateful that Sean, her true love, had saved her.

I'm open, you're closed.

Where I'll follow you'll go.

I worry I won't see your face

Light up again.

About twenty minutes later, Emma was emerging from Snake's new Mercedes in the front of Degrassi Community School. She was dressed in a pair of dark blue jeans and a red T-shirt with a denim jacket over it. As she began to walk up the steps of the school, she heard someone shout her name.

"Emma!" Jay was shouting.

Emma slowly turned around, right in front of the doors to Degrassi, to see him.

"Emma" Jay gasps for air when he reached her.

"Hi Jay' Emma glances around nervously.

"How was your summer?" Jay asks as he began furiously fanning himself with his hand.

"You were there most of the time," Emma says a little more fiercely than she meant to.

"I know, but last week you told me that you didn't wanna got down there with me anymore. I got worried" Jay says and straightens up.

"Don't be…what we were doing was wrong, and I shouldn't have gone there with you at all," Emma says as she squints the sun out of her eyes.

"Emma…come one" Jay reaches for her arm.

"Go away, I have to get to homeroom" Emma says and walks into Degrassi, leaving Jay all alone.

Even the best fall down sometimes.

Even the wrong words seem to rhyme.

Out of the doubt that fills my mind,

I somehow found you and I collide.

Emma strolls into Miss Kwan's homeroom and takes a random seat in the back of the room.

"I'll take roll now" Miss Kwan says in a slightly high-pitched creamy voice.

Miss Kwan looks through a list examining it before she reads it.

"J.T. Yorke?" she says.

"Here" J.T. calls out.

"Emma Nelson."

"Here."

Manny Santos."

"Here."

"Toby Isaacs."

"Here."

"Sean Cameron."

"Here."

Emma freezes at the sound of Sean's voice. She glances around the room looking for him.

"Where is he?" she thinks to herself.

"Hey Emma" Sean says from the door.

"Hi Sean" Emma replies nervously.

Sean walks in slowly and hesitantly takes the seat next to Emma.

"Is Tracker back?" Emma asks and still looks up at Miss Kwan.

"No, I'm back on welfare, Tyler and I got into a fight and he got seriously hurt. My parents sent me back here" Sean explains.

"Oh, I'm sorry" Emma says, unsure of what she should say to that.

"I sort of wanted to come back, to see Ellie, Jay, Bueller…you" Sean says very slowly and stretches out his words.

"Me?" Emma asks.

Sean reaches over to her hand.

"I missed you" he replies.

"I missed you too," she says with a small smirk on her face.

I'm quiet, you know,

You make a first impression.

I've found I'm scared to know,

I'm always on your mind.

After homeroom, Emma is walking down the hallway. She hears muttering about her and Sean getting back together, she would very much like that, but he also said he missed Ellie.

"Em, you back with Sean yet?" Manny asks as she comes up next to Emma.

"No, we're probably not going to be. He said he missed Bueller, Ellie, and me. He never really officially broke it off with her, she has a better chance" Emma replies.

"So? He held your hand" Manny persists.

"I know, but it was friendly, if anything happens it will be a friendship, nothing more" Emma says shortly.

"Whatever, Em, whatever" Manny walks away.

Emma continues walking and Sean comes next to her.

"Wanna go to the movies?" he asks.

"What?" Emma says confused.

"The movies, we never got that double cheese" Sean says in reply.

"Sure, I guess I'll go. Meet me there at 6" Emma walks ahead.

"Bye Em!" Sean shouts after her.

Even the best fall down sometimes.

Even the stars refuse to shine.

Out of the back you fall in time

Somehow find you and I collide...

Lunch rolled around and Emma had no idea where to sit.

"Over here!" Paige was waving her over to their table.

Emma figured, 'what the hell?' and walked over to them.

"Hey Em" hazel says.

"Hey Jimmy, Hazel, Paige" Emma says and places her lunch on the table. She takes a seat next to Paige but doesn't eat anything.

"Okay, hun, the halls are buzzing with rumors of you and Sean getting together. True? Or false?" Paige asks.

"False, we're just going to the movies, that's it" Emma replies.

"Sean! Come sit here!" Hazel shouts to Sean who walks over and sits across from Emma.

"Hey all" Sean smiles at them.

"Hey Sean" Hazel says.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Jimmy asks, for some reason he's mad at Sean.

"Calm down baby, I invited him" Hazel says.

Jimmy just looks away.

Emma steals nervous looks at Sean as she slowly eats her lunch.

Sean glances over at her hoping she'll say something.

Don't stop here...

I lost my place...

I'm close behind...

After lunch, Emma throws her stuff out. Just as she nears the cafeteria doors, Sean spins her around.

He kisses her softly on the lips.

"I really did miss you" he says with a small smile and then walks out.

Emma stands there uneasily looking at Jay who looks jealous of Sean, or her.

Even the best fall down sometimes.

Even the wrong words seem to rhyme.

Out of the doubt that fills your mind

You finally find, you and I collide.

You finally find, you and I collide.

You finally find, you and I collide.
