Class goes by pretty slow, since it's the first day, and the teachers have to explain the ciriculum and rules and such... So Erica is basically doodling in her notebook, listening to her headphones, when J.T taps her shoulder... Erica trys to ignore him... But he keeps on tapping her shoulder. Erica turns around and askes him what he wants... he askes if she is new.. she replies " no, I am 14 years-old and single" she smiles and gets back to what she was doing... When the bell finally rings... Erica finds Craig and Spinner outside the door waiting for her.... She looks at Craig weird, wondering why he is there waiting for her, if he already has a girfriend of his own... Manny sees Craig and walks up to him... While Erica walks up to Spinner asking him whats up..

Spinner says, " I want you to meet Craig"

Erica replies, " I already have... is this the girlfriend you were telling me about earlier?"

Craig looks at Manny and says, " No... This is the Manny who knows about the raves I was telling you about"

" Oh really, do you know when the next rave is?" Erica askes with excitment

" Yeah," Manny says, " Next Friday... If you come by.. I can give you a ride there..."

" That'll be great.. Thanks alot Manny... By The Way... I like your pants" then she mumbles " but wouldn't be caught dead in them.... Come on Spinner lets go!!! Nice you meet you Manny!!!" She walks away with Spinner, starting a conversation, " you know Spinner... I don't know if it's me, or my shirt.. or how I dress, But Alot of people have approached me today..."

"Oh really Miss. Popularity??? Like who?" he says joking around

" well, there was this preppy little girl named Paige... Then there was Emma, this one cute boy in my english class , Craig, Mr. Raditch, Marco, Jimmy... I practically met the whole freaking school."

" paige... Thats my girlfriend.."

she looks shocked, " that preppy snobby cheerleader wannabe is your girlfriend?!.. If that makes you happy... Then I am happy for you.." she tries to change the subject, " what was up with 'James Brooks but people call me Jimmy for short' guy?"

Spinner laughs, " Jimmy.. He likes you.. I can tell... he usually doesn't try to be smooth around girls... But after you left earlier.. He said that you were hott."

" get outta here!"

" seriously... No joking in this area"

" he is okay.. but he needs to stop being all smooth... He has hope... Let's just say that much..."

" I would never imagine Erica, the tom boy, getting a boyfriend"

" I would never imagine Spinner, the weirdo, going out with a cheerleader.. and whats Marco's deal, he's just gorgey"

" and all the other girls say that.. Lets just say.. Marco is more... uhm... on the happy side."

" no way!!! you're not saying that he's... gay are you?"

" yes... he even has a boyfriend.. But just because I say this so easily doesn't mean I am comfortable with it"

" I know.. is this the gym class???"

" Yes it is...And I will talk to Jimmy about this situation"

She kisses him on the cheek, " whatever Spin, thanks again"

Manny walks up to Erica during gym...Greeting her of course... than telling her all about the rave and other stuff( you're wonder what the other stuff is don't you????)

" hey... Erica isn't it??" Manny says

" yes.. My name is Erica whats up?"

" nothing, I wanted to tell you about the rave... you're not going to dress like that are you?"

" like what? like this? oh no.. this is my school wear.. I have a different wear for raves... basically these type of pants with a tank top... a tight tank top.. But anyways... " thats last part she was being sarcastic, but Manny didnt notice

" thats good, just checking... you see that guy over there" she points to sean, "he's giving me a ride.. that is Emma's ex-boyfriend, Emma also goes to raves to see this guy named Chris Sharpe"

" Emma.. Chris.. I have heard of Chris... I spoken to Emma.. But it wasn't about raves or anything, Geez... I feel so odd... I am the only one who isn't in uniform"

" thats okay.. But the thing is, Sean is interested in you.. But goes out with Ellie.. But i think it's going to fail anyways... you guys should hook up at the rave."

" I hardly know the kid!!!! what do you want me to use him to make Ellie jealous or whatever???"

" Yes, I do... Because Sean needs some spice in his life and he sure isn't getting it from Ellie"

" Fine, i will get to know the kid and if he is worth my time... I will consider this hooking-up with him at the rave.. but I can't promise anything... you were in my english class right? who was that kid behind me?"

" J.T. Yorke... he is over there with Toby... Pretty cute huh

?"

" Cute? he is just hott... But I am not the girly girl you are.. I am just your normal average tom boyish punk... I mostly hang-out with guys let alone go out with them...and then this Jimmy guy likes me...and I think Craig was flirting with me.... Confusion is my best quality."

Manny changes the subject while trying to ignore the fact that Erica thought that Craig was flirting with her, " Go talk to Sean... he is a nice bad boy..."

" fine fine fine"

Erica walks over towards Sean and greets herself... and they start to talk about stuff... J.T is watching how Erica is flirtatiously flirting with Sean... J.T seems to get jealous.. making remarks to Toby saying, " what does she see in him" and stuff like that... Erica seems to like Sean after she gets to know him, she likes the fact that he is on the basketball team, and how he knows how to fix up cars and motorcycles (Erica LOVES motorcycles) This (to her) means that he is an Athletic bad-boy with a sensitive side... she falls in love with him imediately(or this could be some type of phase... who knows?)... BUT WHAT ABOUT J.T???
