Manny's POV
I woke up the next morning feeling like shit.My head was pounding and I was really thirsty.I felt like I was going to die.I sat up and looked around the room."where the hell am I at?"I said quietly to myself.I was soo confused.I just sat there thinking about what the hell happened.It took me awhile to get all my thoughts together.I now started to remember some of what went on the night before.Most of what happened was a bit of a blur to me.Just then Jimmy entered the room smiling at me.
"Finally awake"he said in a bright cheerful voice.
I just stared at him feeling a little uncomfortable. After a minuete it finally dawned on me what had happened last night.I could'nt even believe what I had done.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong Manny?" Jimmy asked
"No...not really,I just can't remember all that happened last night.I dont even remember falling asleep." I told him
"Well you do remember what happened between us,don't you? I know I sure do." He said smiling.
"Yea...kinda."
I glanced over at the clock on the wall it read 12:17 pm
"Damn I have to go" I said getting up from the bed,Jimmy then came up to me and put his arms around me,and started whispering in my ear.
"Remember Manny,dont say anything about the weed or anything okay,remember you promised that my secret was safe with you."
"I won't" I said.
Jimmy hugged me tighter,and leaned in to give me a kiss,I turned my head away,and told him that I had to go.I unwrapped myself from his warm embrace and walked out the room.
When I got home,my mom and dad were sitting in the living room.
"MANUELLA! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!" my father shouted at me as soon as I walked in the door.
I just stood there silent,Unsure of what to tell them.
"we were worried about you Manuella! dont ever do that again!" My mother exlcaimed.
"I was just at a friends house.I forgot to call.sorry." I finally told them.
"At what friends house, my mother asked,you werent at Emma's. we called there looking for you.So where were you?"
"I slept over at paige's."
"Well next time let us know.we were worried sick." My father told me.
"I will"
I walked upstairs to my room and layed down on my bed.I felt soo tired,confused,sad,mad,basically every emotion.Not to mention,that I had the worst headache in the world right now. I still could'nt believe what I did.I did drugs,got drunk and had sex with a guy I barely know.I dont know why butI felt bad for what I did.I liked the way,the weed and the alcohol had made me feel,and at the time I iked the way Jimmy had made me feel.But I felt soo guilty. Now jimmy is probably going to want nothing to do with me,just like craig. But do i even want anything to do with him? I had all these thought's running through my head.I felt like my head was going to fall off.
After laying there for a while I was starting to fall asleep,but then I heard the phone ringing.
"Manuella! Telephone!" I heard my mother yell.
"Maybe it's Craig."I thought to myself.I ran downstairs to where my mother was at. Here Manuella,Its Emma."My mother said while handing me the phone.
"Hey Emma"
"Manny,Where were you last night,Your parents were worried bout you"
"I was just at a friends house." I replied
"At who's house?"
"I can't talk to you about that right now."
"Um...Alright...well my mom said that you came here last night looking for me."
"Yeah I did,where were you at?"
"I was with Sean."
"Really? So are you two back together?" I asked
"No we arn't back together,and I don't even Know if I want to be with him again." Emma replied
"Oh really,why?"
"I Dunno Im confused,Im having Mixed feelings.Im not sure what I want ya know?"
"Yeah,Well do you wanna hang out later.I really need to talk to you about some stuff."
"sure."
"Alright How about around 6,im not feeling to good right now,I need to get some sleep."
"Sounds good to me.How about we go to the DOT?"
"sure,I'll meet you there around 6 okay?"
"Yeah"
"alright By Em."
"Bye Manny."
After I woke up from a great sleep,I felt soo much better.I hurried up took a shower and got ready to meet Emma at the dot.
"Bye Mom,Im going to hang out with Emma" I said as I was about to walk out the door.
"Wait Manny,About an hour ago a boy called here looking for you."
"Really do you know who it was?"
"No after I told him you were sleeping,he quickly hung up.
"Oh ok.Well if he calls here again,ask him who it is."
"Okay I will Manuella,But your lucky your father wasnt here at the time,and happened to anserw the phone,you know how he feels about you talking to boys."
"I know mom,Well I have to go."
"Alright Manuella,don't be gone too long okay?"
"I wont."
When I reached the dot,I walked in and quickly spotted Emma.
"Hey Emma." I said as I sat down at the table.
"Hey Manny"
"So what friends house were you at last night, dont tell me you were with Craig."
"No I was'nt with him."
"Then who?" Emma asked.
"It's a long story."
"Tell me all about it."
A few minutes later I finished telling Emma all that had happened and who I was with last night.Except I did'nt tell her about the weed,drinking,or having sex with Jimmy.
"You stayed the night with Jimmy? I can't believe you!" Emma excalimed.
"Shhh Em, I don't want the whole world to know."
"Im sorry."
"Yeah...its alright."
"Ok Manny,so your telling me that you spent the night at Jimmy's house and nothing went on?"
"No Nothing happened between us...We were just hanging out."
"right...Im sure you two were."
"DamnNothing went on Emma!"
"Alright I was Kidding,calm down Manny."
"I'll be right back,I have to use the restroom." I told Em,while getting up and walking to the bathroom. A few seconds later I came back to the table.
"That was fast."
"Yea,I just had to check my makeup."I replied.
"Oh yea,your little friend is here."
"Who are you talking about?"
"Jimmy"Emma said while pointing in the direction he was sitting in.
"Well dont point at him."
"Gosh manny,he was'nt even looking."
"So..."
I looked over at the table that Jimmy was sitting at.He was with Paige,Hazel,and Spinner.It felt uncomfortable being in the same room with him."Damn I have to get out of here,before he see's me." I thought to myself.
"Hey Emma,You wanna go see a movie or something?"
"Sure..."
We both got up and walked out the door,while discussuing what movie we wanted to go see.
"Hey Manny wait up!" I heard Jimmy calling after me.
I stopped and turned around walking back to where Jimmy was.
"Hey Wassup Manny."
"Hey"
"What are you doing tonight?"
"Um...probably just hanging out with Emma,right now were on our way to see a movie."
"Thats cool,well do you want to hang out later?"
"um...i dunno."
"c'mon Manny,We had a good time lastnight,you know you want to."
"Um...Alright."
"Cool,well just come by my house later on.Whatever time is fine.I'll be there."
"Okay.well I have to get going."
"Bye Manny."
I walked back to where Emma was waiting for me,and we headed over to the movie theater."
"So,what did Jimmy say?" Emma asked.
"He just was saying hi,and asked me if I wanna hang out with him tonight."
"I think he's really into you."
"No he's not Emma,Where just friends."
"Well do you like him?"
"Well I think he's really cute.But Im not sure if I really lke him,I mean I don't know that much about him."
"Thats true,But if you did get to know him better which Im sure you will and you liked him.Would you go out with him?"
"I dunno Emma."
"Why? Because your still hung up on Craig?"
I did'nt anserw her,Sometimes it seemed like she knew exactly what I was thinking.
"Manny,you just need to get over him already. Jimmy could probably be a way better boyfriend than Craig, Look at the way Craig treats ashley he cheats on her not only with you but with Ashley's bestfriend.you can do way better than him.You deserve better than that."
The rest of the way to the movie theater we both stayed silent.What Emma had told me almost made me want to cry.She was right I did need to get over Craig.
