Chapter Five
Emma walked down the halls of Degrassi in a daze. She hardly slept the night before and couldn't pay attention in her classes. Snake told her that if she couldn't concentrate, to go home. Snake knew that Sean was back in town but wasn't allowed to tell Emma.
Emma was at her locker when out of the corner of her eye she saw a person come up next to her. She knew that slouch. It was Sean. She looked up. How could she talk to him? She didn't even know what to say to him. So he started first.
"Emma." Just the way he said her name brought back memories.
"You're back. When did you get back?"
"A week ago. Ellie moved out."
"A while ago. So you're living on your own again?"
"Just until my parents sell their house. They're going to move in with me. Into a new place."
"That's great! So you're staying?"
"That's the plan. How are things?"
"Fine."
"Jay told me what happened down at the Ravine."
"Oh. Uh, yeah not something I'm proud of."
"I didn't think you would be proud of it."
"Are you going to be in 11th grade this year?"
"Yeah, I finished out the year where my parents live."
"That's good. I guess I'll see you around." Emma said as she closed her locker door.
"Emma."
She didn't have time to look in his eye before he kissed her.
