CHAPTER EIGHT: PT 1 Why Are You So Mad?
~~~
Emma Nelson ran down the hall of Degrassi C.S. with her paper for the Grapevine, the school newspaper. She got to the office just as Liberty walked out.
"Your late." Liberty stated the obvious. "This is the second time this has happened."
"I know!" Emma said. "I gotta go."
Emma took off down the hall. Liberty shook her head. "I don't know how she does what she does."
Emma ran quickly around the corner just to bump into Sean and have his books go flying to the ground.
"Oh I'm so sorry Sean," Emma said, bending down to help him retrieve his books. She stood up and handed the ones she had to him.
"No big deal." He responded. "You seem like your in a rush."
"Uhh...sorta." Emma said. "Hey forget it, let's have lunch."
"Okay," Sean said. They walked together to the lunch room. Sean stopped at a lunch table where Paige, Hazel, Jimmy, Spinner and Craig were sitting.
"Hey, Spinner is it true that Amber is leaving?" Sean asked.
"Shut up." Spinner said.
"Yeah, she's moving to Cali." Paige pouted. "Why?"
"Cause she's my friend," Sean said. "I obviously want to know if she's leaving the country."
"Maybe we should throw her a going away party." Jimmy suggested.
"That's a grand idea, Jimmy." Spinner said sarcastically. "Celebrate the fact that she's leaving us forever."
"Hey it would be nice," Paige said. "Have fun with her, like old times."
"How can I be happy with her gone?" Spinner asked.
"Enjoy the time you have left with her," Emma said. "It only makes sense."
"Did I ask you, eighth grader?" Spinner said to Emma.
"Hey back off." Sean threatened. "Let's go Emma."
Sean and Emma walked away. Hazel turned to Paige.
"Hey, look on the bright side." She whispered. "You have a chance with Spinner again."
"I guess your right," Paige whispered back. "But hun, we both know how much Amber rocks."
"Hey!" Amber said, walking up to the lunch table. She sat down next to Spinner.
Spinner stood up and started to walk away.
"Wait," Amber got up and walked after him. "What's up with you? I told you it's not my fault."
"You kept this a secret for 3 months!" Spinner said.
"I'm sorry!" Amber said. "I was waiting for it to change, I didn't believe I really had to leave you until it hit my recently."
Spinner said nothing.
"How are you going to be mad at me?" Amber asked. "I forgive you about everything, and you hold grudges like there's no tomorrow."
"What did you forgive me about that was so bad?" Spinner asked.
"Me moving isn't the only thing that has hit me." Amber said, crossing her arms.
Spinner felt mixed emotions inside of him. He turns and walked off.
"Fine!" Amber yelled. "We have three weeks left together, spend it being mad at me!
~~~
Amber felt a tear crawl down her face. It was the end of the day and she was sitting on a picnic table waiting for the bus. She didn't like to walk home alone, and she didn't have Spinner to walk with her.
"Hey," Sean said sitting down next to her. Emma sat down next to him.
"Hi," Amber said. She wiped the tears from her cheeks.
"What's wrong?" Sean asked.
"You don't need to hear my problems." Amber replied.
"It's okay," Emma said. "Maybe we can help?"
"No," Amber said. "You can't unless you know a place where I can stay while my father and sister move to California."
Emma looked at Sean and shrugged.
"And..." Amber continued. "Spinner hates me. I'm gonna move away forever with him hating me..."
"Oh Sean." Amber threw her arms around him and hugged him, tears streaming down her face.
~~~
"Paige, Hazel!" Emma stopped them as they were walking down the hall.
"May I help you?" Paige asked.
"Yes, actually." Emma said. "I was thinking about what Jimmy said, about throwing a Going Away party. I think we should."
Paige put her index finger to her chin as if she were deep in though.
"Okay," Paige said. "How about at my place? Tomorrow night?"
"Okay," Emma agreed. "I'll tell everyone."
"Six o'clock, till whenever make it." Paige said. "Bring presents. Oh and don't tell Am, it will be a surprise."
"Alright," Emma said, she quickly walked past them to deliver the news.

CHAPTER EIGHT: PT 2 Throw A Party
~~~
"This is crazy!" Paige said, taking a sip of her screw driver. "Mmm orange juice at night."
"When's Amber gonna be here?" Emma yelled over the music.
"Soon!" Paige yelled back.
The party was wild even before Amber came. There was blaring music, strobe lights going, food and drinks. About a half an hour later, Amber arrived. She walked right in, seeing many people partying their brains out. A huge banner was up that read: "We'll Miss You FORVER Amber!"
Amber found Paige and headed over to her.
"Thanks!" She yelled over the blaring music.
"Okay!" Paige yelled back, she was dancing and having a lot of fun. Amber decided to join the fun. It was her last few weeks at Degrassi. She grabbed a beer from the small fridge and started dancing. She bumped into Emma accidently.
"Sorry!" Amber said.
"Your here!" Emma said smiling. "Nice party huh?"
"Yeah," Amber said.
"My parents would KILL me for being here," Emma said. "I didn't know it was gonna be so big and crazy!"
"Paige throws some party huh!" Amber said loudly. She looked around at the people. "Where are the people who actually know who I am?"
"Around!" Emma said. "Just look for them!"
"Okay," Amber said. "I need some fresh air already! See ya!"
"Bye." Emma said, as Amber walked away. She walked out the front door and sat on the front steps.
After a few minutes, a black dodge viper pulled up in front of the house. Amber put down her half full beer and got up. She walked up to the vehicle. The tinted window rolled down and a really hott guy smiled at her.
"What's going on here?" He asked.
"Partying!" Amber said. "Who are you?"
"An old friend of Paige's." He said. "But she seems busy, are you?"
"Hey the party's for me and no one even knows I'm gone." Amber said. "I don't know half the people in there! My going away party was just an excuse for Paige to party wild I guess."
"I'll party with you," He said. "Hop in!"
Amber walked around the front of the car and got in the passenger side. He drove off.
"I'm Amber by the way." She said.
"Nice to meet you," He said. "I'm Dean."
