Emma's sleeping on her bed, the phone starts to ring. You see the clock says 1:30. Emma wakes up and the phone says M. Santos
"Hello?" Emma answers groggily.
"Em?" says a nervous Manny.
"What are you doing calling me this late?" Emma asks, annoyed.
"I have something really important to tell you," says Manny.
"And it couldn't wait until morning?" Emma asks.
"Well, I suppose it could," Manny starts.
"Then tell me then," Emma interrupts. "I have a math test in the morning."
"Aright," Manny sighs, "just meet me tomorrow in the PE area."
"Fine," Emma says. "And Manny?"
"Yes," she responds.
"Unless it is either really important or you know I'm awake, do not ever call me this late again," Emma says.
"Okay," says Manny.
Emma hangs up the phone, and it switches over to Manny's room. You see a pregnancy test on her dresser. It says Positive
"But this was important, Em," Manny whispers to no one.

"Free Falling"Ellie and Craig walk into Degrassi holding hands. They kiss and everyone stares.
"I have something important to tell you," says Ellie, sitting down on a table.
"What?" Craig asks.
Paige is approaching.
"Um, not now," Ellie says.
"Why not?" asks Craig.
"So Ellie, you and Craig?" Paige questions.
"There's your answer," Ellie mutters. "Well, yeah."
"So, how long?" Paige asks.
"About a month or so," Ellie replies.
"How have I not known about this for a month?" Paige demands.
"We've been kind of keeping it a secret," Ellie says.
"How romantic," Paige coos. "But hun, if you plan on stealing all your friends' ex's, don't waste your time on Spinner." She eyes Spinner.
"Thanks for the advice," Ellie says.
"No problem," Paige says, then turns to walk away.
"Not to worry," Ellie says to Craig, "I have no connection with Spinner at all."
They kiss again, lightly.
Scene change"Okay, Manny, what is it?" Emma asks.
"Um, well," Manny begins. "You promise not to tell."
"Of course I promise," Emma promises, "now spill."
"Um, well, you see, I sort of, um, well," Manny stutters.
"Manny, you called me up at 1:30 last night, and you're not going to tell me now?" Emma sighs.
"I'm pregnant," Manny blurts.
Emma's eyes get wide. "Again! Are you sure?"
"Well, no," Manny says. "But I'm late, I've never been late. Not since, well you know."
"And you've, you know, had sex in the past couple of months?" Emma asks.
"No, do you have to have sex to make a baby? I was absent that day in health class," Manny says sarcastically.
Emma rolls her eyes. "With who?"
"JT," Manny says.
Liberty emerges from the shadows.
"What?" she exclaims. "You've had sex with my boyfriend?"
"Sorry," Manny says.
"Well, congratulations, school slut," Liberty says, putting an emphasis on the "slut". "But you know what? You should be congratulating me too, because I may be pregnant as well."
"I'm sorry," Manny sobs.
Scene change
It's lunchtime and Craig and Ellie are eating lunch.
"Will you tell me now?" Craig begs.
Ellie chuckles, "Aright." She drops her fork and her eyes go wide.
"What is it?" Craig asks. He turns around. "Ashley!"
Ashley hugs him. "Hi."
"But I thought you weren't coming back?" Ellie half asks.
"I know," Ashley says. "I sent you that e-mail so I could surprise you! I was just a little delayed."
"You caused me so much pain," Craig says.
"I'm sorry," Ashley apologizes, "I didn't mean it. I just wanted to surprise you."
"Well, I'm surprised," Craig says, "and so glad you're back!" He hugs her, Ellie just sits there.
Scene change
Manny and Emma are in the free clinic after school, Emma is sitting there in a chair, waiting for her best friend's results to come. Emma's flipping through a magazine when Manny comes out with tears in her eyes.
"Oh, Manny, I'm sorry," Emma says, going over to her best friend. "Are you going to keep it?"
"I I'm not pregnant," Manny sobs.
"Then what's wrong?" Emma asks. "Did you want to be pregnant?"
"No," Manny says. "But I didn't want this." She sits in a chair.
Emma sits next to her. "Didn't want what?"
"Emma, I can't have babies," Manny cries.
"What do you mean?" Emma asks.
"Something went wrong while they were doing the abortion," Manny explains. "They say I'm infertile now. I may not have wanted a baby at fourteen, or even sixteen, but I know I'll want one someday!" Manny starts crying harder.
"It's okay," Emma says. "Let's go get ice cream or something."
Manny only nods, and they leave.

"James Tiberius Yorke!" Liberty yells.
"What darling?" he asks.
"I hate you!" she screams.
"What?" he asks.
"Don't you 'what' me!" she says. "I know what you've been doing with Manny! Well, you can't have both of us!" She slaps his face and then leaves in tears. "Hello?" she says into her cell phone. "Is this the unplanned pregnancy clinic? Well, my name is Liberty Van-Zandt and I'd like to make an appointment."
Scene change
Craig hears Ellie sobbing, and he goes into the room. "Are you aright?" He sits next to her.
"You- you're going to take her back aren't you?" she asks.
"I don't know, probably," Craig answers truthfully.
"But she broke your heart!" Ellie argues.
"But she didn't mean to," Craig says.
"How can you just take her back like that!" Ellie says, raising her voice.
"We never actually broke up," Craig says.
"So what? You're just going to forget about me?" Ellie asks.
"No, I won't," Craig says. "El, you're amazing, and that one night we had was special."
"But what? I'm not Ashley?" Ellie demands.
Craig sighs, "Yes."
"You're such an asshole!" Ellie screams, she turns to walk away.
"Ellie," Craig sighs.
Ellie turns half way around. "Guess what, I'm pregnant, and it's yours."
A surprised Ashley comes through the doorway. Ellie is obviously surprised, but she hides it and pushes her way past the door. Ashley looks hurt, Ellie is crying, and Craig has his head in his hands.
… I'm a bad boy, for breaking her heart. And she's free, free falling…
A/N Well, that was three plots, and I hope it wasn't too much for you. I guess Ellie getting pregnant was a bit predictable, especially since it's one of my stories, but you didn't see what happened to Manny coming did you? If you liked it, review, if you didn't like it, review.
