Chapter 9 - Quick Comment

"how've you been" The tall guy said leaning againt the locker asked the short brunette.

"Okay and yourself" she replied, putting her book bag around her shoulder.

"Getting by"

"Oh that's good, but hey Jimmy"she said looking up into his big brown eyes. "Do you think that what happened can stay between us?" He looked down at her and smiled. She said exactly what he was thinking. He felt relieved telling her what he had, and hoped she did to but really didn't want anyone else to know. "Of Course our little secrert."

"Thank you, so much" She exclaimed giving him a huge hug and then walking down the hall to her next class. She quickly went into the room and sat down so that she wouldn't be late. She hadnt relized that her little conversation with Jimmy had taken almost the enitre five minute passing period.

"Manuella Santos?" A loud voice in the front of the class said.

'Here" she said raising her hand.

He walked down the hall, giving dirty looks to everyone who tried making a quick comment at him. It felt as if he hadnt been there in forever. That's noramally how you feel on the first day but for him it had been more than just summer. Hed been explelled but was forced to come back or get a job. In his mind going to school was a hell of a lot better than getting a job.

There she was in a long blue jeans and a red track jacket with a white shirt underneath. She looked so stong a confident as if people walking by her wern't making smart ass comments. He slowly walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. It looked as if she was scared by the way she jumped at the touch of his arms. She turned around and gave a quick smile as she realized who it was. But her smile quickly fadded and gave him an apologitec look before turning and walking away. He stood there very confussed and pissed at the same time.

She felt bad that was for sure, but just couldn't talk to him there. There were to many people and people had mouths. Her goal this year was just to blend and hopefully get of the gosip colums top ten storys. She knew that if she was seen talking to Jay that wouldn't be good. She loved him and wanted to be with him but had other things that were important to her as well, and one of those was school. It was so hard for her not to wrap her arms around his neck and kiss his soft lips, but she had to resist and walk away.

Mannys POV

"You just keep going around dont you" She said inturupting my convo with Darcy.

"Whats that supposed to mean?"

"Well hmm how many boyfriedns have you stolen? Hmm lets count,1 Craig, 2 Spinner, & your new victim Jimmy"

"Me and Jimmy are just friends" It took everything i had in me to not just go off on her. I saw Hazel shifting in her seat next to paige. She probly thought i would say something about the way things actually ended with Jimmy. But in fact she was lucky, i was in a good mood that day.

"Uh huh just like you and Spinner were just friends" She said giving me a ugly grin.

"Please, we never did anything when you where still together."

"Thats right you waited till the day after, can you say doorknob?" Hazel and Ashley just gave her a confussed look. "Everyones had a turn, uh you guys are hopeless" She said and walked away. "God i hate her" I thought to myself as i turned and walked to my car.

"You dont even understand" she yelled.

"Yah i dont understand, my damn girlfriend doesnt want to be seen with me"

"Jay come on, you know its not like that"

"Whatever Emma" Jay said starting up his car and driving off in a furious rage. He was so pissed, he couldnt beilve how stupid he was to actually care for someone like her. Yet there was confliction inside of him his head saying how stupid he was and his heart saying how bueatiful and wonderful she was.

He was driving around for more than an hour when he heard a loud honking noise. When Jay turned tro see what it was but instead saw a white truck coming his way with no intention of stopping.
