Chapter 8 Lunchtime
Jay approached the stop sign in his car. "This is crazy. I cant let her do this. I'm over it." He turned his car around and headed back to school for lunch. Emma looked around for Sean. She was surprised to see Jay, Amy, Tom, and Alex sitting with him. "Maybe I can run out the back." Too late, Sean had already saw her. "Emma over here!" He called out. Alex broke up from her make out session. "Nobody here wants her eating with us." "You sure about that? Jay looked pretty cozy with her yesterday." Sean raised his eyebrows and everyone's mouth dropped. "Did I miss something?" Emma asked, noticing everybody's mouth down to the floor.
Sean attempted to put his arm around her but Emma pulled away. "Look Emma we need to talk." Emma glanced at Jay who was staring right at her. She quickly looked back at Sean. "Yeah?" "I was wondering if you-uh wanted to go out with me. I mean I know that your single and all." Sean nervously asked. Emma looked back at Jay. She did not want to be with Sean. She wanted Jay. But did he want her? Say yes. You all are great together. No what about Jay? What about him he doesn't care about you. He might. Look at those eyes. They are kinda cute. STOP IT! "I'll uh think about it ok. I have an offer from Chester I have to consider." Emma said trying to cover it up.
"CHESTER! YOU WOULD ACTUALLY THINK ABOUT CHESTER! COME ON EMMA!" Jay shouted without thinking. "At least its better than you Hogart." Sean snapped back. "I have got to get out of this place." Emma said. Emma ran out of the cafeteria and to the parking lot. She climbed in her newly repaired beetle she then realized she had no purse or key. "SHIT!" Emma screamed. "Emma Nelson! I'm surprised at you!" Jay said jokingly acting surprised. "You left your purse." He said climbing into the passenger seat. "Where are we going?" Jay said handing her the purse. Emma sat it down and laid back her seat. "Should I say yes to Sean?" Emma asked hoping she knew the answer.
"Do you want to say yes to Sean or to Chester." Jay asked in an aggravated tone.
"Neither."
Jay smiled. "Really?"
"Really. I like someone else."
"Who?"
"Nunya. Lets get out of here."
