Part 24---) Erica and J.T. are in the back seat of Emma's car, who is sitting in the front next to her mom... So being the kind of mom that Spike is, she starts to ask questions about how J.T. and Erica met and so on and so forth...

"J.T. this is great that you've got yourself a girlfriend.. I remember when you were spying through my husbands window to see that stripper Fancy..." says Spike, she starts to laugh...

"oh thanks Mrs. Nelson, for embarassing me infront of my girlfriend..." says J.T.

Erica snuggles up into him, "I don't care, you shouldn't be embarassed... Now if it were a male stripper, then thats a different story..." Emma and her mother start to laugh, Erica kisses him and says, "I'm sorry... I was just kidding with you..."

"it's okay... I'm still going out with you.."

"so have you had your guys first date yet?" askes Spike

"moooom, I think thats their business..." says Emma

"No, I don't mind answering that..." says Erica," see we were trying to spend some qualitie time together..."

"But everyone kept knocking the door to ask Erica about the fight with Manny." says J.T

"I remember my first date.. wait, you got into a fight with Manny? why did you get into a fight with her?" askes Spike

"see, Mom... what had happened was, at the rave, Me and Erica were dancing... then Manny comes up to Erica and slaps her really super hard... and then, Erica pushed her down, and hit her a few times, and thats why we came home early.. so Monday.. at school. Erica was not talking to anyone... Because her throat hurted from the rave.. so Manny came up to her and wanted a re-match because she thought she didnt get a fair fight, although, she had started the fight... and see, Manny was going to get Hazel and or Paige to hit Erica really hard with like a stick so that Manny would win the fight and convince Craig to go back out with her... But Erica stated that no one is allowed to help unless Erica was beating up Manny too hard, which of course she was playing around, but they took it all serious, and so Hazel tried to hit Erica with her shoe at the fight, but J.T. practically moaned Erica's name, " she laughs and gasps for air, then finishes her story," and Erica ducked and it hit Manny on her shoulder... really great fight mom, you should have seen it..." says Emma

"but I always thought Manny was such a nice girl... so adorable and innocent"

"you haven't seen her lately" says J.T. , " she became some sex bomb"

Emma sees that they've arrived to the mall, "we're here.. Mom, I'll call you when we're done shopping" she kisses her mother on the cheek

"well okay, " says Spike, she gives her 50 dollars, " here's some money... if you don't buy an outfit, I want it back... and it better not be a revealing outfit"

So Erica and J.T. are walking in the mall with Emma and J.T. has his hands around Erica's waist while Emma is beside her walking and telling her about the fight(although she was there... damnit she was in the fight)... Erica really doesn't want to hear about the fight because it reminds her of her back, which by the way still hurts... J.T. knows this for a fact that Erica back still hurts so he's letting her lean on him for support so her back won't hurt so much...

"are we going to go in the Gap...???" askes Emma

Erica starts to laugh,"hahahahaha... Gap.. your kidding me..." Erica can see hot topic in eye view..., "Emma, meet your new favorite store... and Clerance, is your new best friend..."

J.T. starts to laugh and says, " so we're finding Emma a punked out oufit.. she's going to be scared, she's never been in hot topic..."

Erica walks Emma over to the Clerance section, and immediatley Emma see a niceTripp bondage skirt that she likes... It's blue and black... and Erica spots some blue and black striped socks that come right above the knee... Emma also buys some black and some rainbow bracelets... Emma was about to get a good charolette tee shirt.. but Erica stopped her warning Emma that good charolette is the biggest poser band in America...and that she should get a happy bunny shirt or another shirt... Emma ends up getting Blink-182 tee shirt and a matching patch... J.T. is being such a good sport about this that Erica decides to take him outside for a while... Erica tells Emma to meet her outside... her and J.T. walk outside and sit down on the bench....

"it's kinda chilly outside... shouldn't it be fall weather... it's like what.. late September?" says Erica, " I'm cold..."

"well, thats what happened when you come outside in a short skirt, and a tight tank top..." replies J.T.

"But you like it though right?"

"Yes... you look very nice, I like how you dress... but you're shivering..."

she snuggles into him, "Keep me warm J.T. ..."

J.T. wraps her arm around her, " Your so adorable..."

"thank you.." she kisses him.. and they start to make-out for awhile until Emma's mom honks the horn... they ignore and think it's someone else's parent looking for their kid.. but it's not.. Emma's mom yells after Emma, whom just came out the mall with a huge hot topic bag... So thats when they stop get up, and walk towards the car, "boy, this was fun.." says Erica.. Erica and J.T get into the back seat while Emma gets into the front... Emma's mom comments how Erica and J.T. were going at it and how it made her reminise on the good 'ole days.. Spike talks about the crazy things she use to do in high school before she became pregnant with Emma... Emma seems embarassed. But Erica is very intersted in this tale that Spike is telling, and before you know it.. they arrive at J.T's house to drop J.T. off...

When J.T get outs the car.. Erica follows, she walks up to the door with J.T. and says, "it's only 9:30... are you sure you want to go home now?? you can always come home with me.... and we could just.. relax"

"thats what you said before...we'll just relax... next thing you know, we're making out while Julian is staring at us..." replies J.T.

Erica laughs, " I love you so much... your really funny..." she kisses him, softly biting his lower lip... "are you sure you dont want to come over...?"

"no... But I have to go inside... I can swing by early in the afternoon if you want me too..."

"okay, I'll like that..."

he kisses her for a good 19 seconds, "I love you.."

"I love you too"

(hahaha 19 seconds)While Erica walks back to the car.. J.T. stands on the front porch, and blows Erica a kiss while Emma's mom starts to drive off... Erica whispers how much she loves J.T... When Spike drops off Erica and Emma at Erica house.. Erica tells Emma's mom that her dad won't be until around 11:00 and that they will be find.. Spike drives off leaving her baby girl home alone with Erica... Not like that its a bad thing...
