Emma's POV (I know it's unexpected, but this might happen a few more times.)

Where is Manny? Homeroom started five minutes ago, and it'll be over in ten. I guess what Ms. H. needed her to do excused her from homeroom. But still why would she be this late? I can't wait to tell Manny about Peter. Finally I met a guy first, and I think he might like me. Gosh what is taking her so long? I can't contain myself any longer.

Just then I look up, after Ms. H. finishes giving the back to school announcements, I see Peter walks into my homeroom. I can't believe I actually get to spend fifteen minuets with him everyday, and besides the only two chairs left are next to me. A smile quickly spreads across my face, but it faded away as fast as it came. Because right behind him...

I see Manny. And they are both smiling at each other.

Manny smiled at me and started walking over to me, telling Peter to follow her. I forced a smile back, but the truth is I was filled with jelousy.

"Hey, Em." Manny greeted me.

"Hey, Manny. So what did Ms. H. want?" I asked. But it was pretty obvious seeing that Peter told me earlier that Ms. H was his mom.

"Oh, she wanted me to be Peter's student guide for today." She replied.

Maybe it was just an inside joke, why they were smiling.

"Oh yeah. Emma, this is Peter." She said pointing to Peter. "And, Peter this is my best friend Emma Nelson." She said pointing to me.

"We've already met, Ella. Sunday at the pool, and today before school." He said.

"Ella"? Wwhat the hell? They just met and he is already calling her by a different nickname. Maybe there is something between them. At least I know now.

"Yeah we did meet." I said.

"Okay, so where is your schedule?" Manny asked Peter.

Peter handed Manny his schedule.

"Cool. Your schedule is completely identical to mine, except you take physics and I have AP chemistry." Manny said staring at his schedule.

I didn't even talk that much after that. Neither of them seemed to have noticed. Manny was telling about the classes and teachers, and most importantly the students. I was counting down the seconds until homeroom was over (360), but what was the point my next class was with Manny and Peter anyway. Then someone came into the room that grabbed my attention. I signed on to AIM, Manny was already on.

(A/N I don't know the exact way to type Manny and Emma's screen names so someone please tell me.)

Sparklespaz: Hey Manny take a look at who just walked in.

Manny looked up and for a second her eyes met with that person's. The person was talking to Snake but looked at Manny for a second.

Smileygurl: I don't care that he's here.

Sparklespaz: You don't care at all/

Smileygurl: No why would I care? I'm just a big mistake to him.

Sparklespaz: You don't even want to talk to him?

Smileygurl: Not at all. He has his beloved Ashley, and I'm happy for them.

Sparklespaz: Whatever you say.

Damn. She doesn't care. But wait. Why do I care? Ugh, it's because I want Peter to myself, but Manny is my best friend she deserves to be happy. Even if it is to the guy I have a crush on.

The bell rang.

Manny, Peter, and I walked to our next class together. On our way out the door, Manny walked straight past Craig without even a glance, I was pretty proud of her.

I know it was short but I just wanted to let you guys know what Emma was thinking about all of this. Later on I'll post the party probably chapter 6. The next one will be about the rest of the first day of school and what other people think about Peter.

And to everyone who posts a review, I just want to say in advance:

Merci

Gracias

Grazie

And…Obrigado (They all mean thank you)
