Chapter: The Only Perfect One/Road Trip

DisclaimerI don't own Degrassi (CRIES DRAMATIC) but I wish I did so sue me.

A/N: This part is basically…well, at the ravine afterwards. There are flashbacks, memories, good times, and more.

"This shit is killing me," said Emma Nelson's cold voice, clinging onto her boyfriend.
"Oh please, you couldn't have it any easier," Ellie replied. "Having an ex-boyfriend who still hits on his ex, who is also your best friend? I have worse problems than you."
"Shut up Nash, and eat the crap," Jay said, pointing to the cold pudding, sandwiches, milk, water, beer, cereal, and fries.

"I can't believe that we're going on a stupid road trip without consent." Emma pouted as Jay started up the engine of his orange civic.
"Emma. It's 10 o'clock at night. Do you want the stupid permission, or do you want to live wild and go wherever the road goes?" Alex asked.
"Second one," Ellie answered for her.

"Call Cameron, ask if he wants to join, Lexi," Jay yelled, his voice scorching over the music of Green Day.
"Do you seriously want him to come?" Ellie sneered. She was still mad about the whole break-up thing.
"Ellie, you have to get over him. He was so worth it. And besides, he likes Emma, get over it. Big deal," Alex joined in. "But I seriously don't know if there's room here, unless Emma moves to the back and Sean sits in front." Alex referred to Emma in the back because she was skinny and light.

Emma moved back, hoping not to get on Ellie's last nerves. It wasn't her fault Sean wasn't over her. She wasn't the one who broke his heart. He ditched her for her current boyfriend.

"Hey Sean, can you come to the place near the ravine? It's a last minute road-trip." Ellie, Emma, and Jay heard a voice saying stuff like yea, are they gonna be there, etc. "He's coming," Alex said as she shut her phone.

"Ellie, you have no idea how sorry I am about…Sean," Emma kept on saying. Ellie smiled at her, glad that her friend was always so sorry.
"It's 'kay, Emma, just stop saying that 'cos you're getting on my nerves," Alex said.

Emma started massaging Jay's shoulders and he leaned back and said, "Love ya, Em."
Emma giggled and kissed his cheek. "I love you too, Jay."

Sean's POV

I pushed down my headphones, wondering what to say to Jay, Ellie, and Emma when I got over there. If Emma wasn't in the middle of this, Jay would've probably beaten the hell out of me by now. He'd be searching me down.
I opened the door and sat next to Jay. He gave me a silent nod and a little sneer. Yea, I know I was trying to sabotage your relationship with Emma, but hey, it's your fault we broke up in the first place. Loser.

God, at least I don't have to look at Ellie. It's hard enough seeing Emma kiss Jay so much. His life has got to be good, because he has a girl, friends, money, and more. At least he's not on parole. It's not that I'm on parole, but I got into jail once. Just once, okay people? Get off my back about it.

"Stop drooling at my girlfriend," snapped Jay. Alex snorted and Ellie tried to conceal her laughter (unsuccessfully).
"…I wasn't," I lied. Oh, I wish Emma wouldn't be so freaking perfect.
"Ha, stop lying." Alex, shut up. "And no, don't tell me to shut up." Crap, I didn't say that out loud.

Emma heard a ring on her phone, indicating she had a text message. She opened the phone and looked at it.

nElS0NcHiC: bye

"Spilled to Santos," Alex snickered.
"Spilled to Nunez," Ellie replied, taking a chai latte out of her bag.
"Hey, where'd you get that?" Alex whined.
"No where," Ellie giggled.
"Giggle-machine." Alex rolled her eyes.

"Immaturity," I joined in. Ellie laughed. Yes, a friendship brought over?
"Listen, El…I'm really sorry about the whole thing, but can we just be friends?" I asked. Pause.
"Yeah, I guess. To friendship," Ellie replied, raising her latte.

Jay pulled the car over and took a beer. He smiled and raised it up. My beer bottle, Jay's beer bottle, Emma's glass of water, Ellie's latte, and Alex's beer bottle clinked together, as we all said, "To friendship, love, and us."

"Oh, come on…Jay, no drunk drivers," Ellie complained. "No hyper drivers, either." She pointed towards herself and looked at her latte. We all looked at Emma.
Emma kissed Jay on the cheek and here was the seating arrangement now. I still wasn't allowed to sit near Ellie, I guess. So it was like this:

In the front seat:
Emma Jay
Backseat:
Ellie Alex Me

Oh, I'm glad I'm not near Emma, because if I was then I'd probably get the temptation to spike her water and make her kiss me. Ha-ha, so not funny.

Yawn, does Emma even have her driver's license? "Do you have your license?" I asked.
She waved her card at me, and continued joy riding with her boyfriend all happy to be near her. The same guy who broke me and her up?
Are you sure this was the same Jay? Or was it because of Emma? She can change people, and they become better. She's some sort of cure…

Jay's POV

I'm not so sure about this whole 'Bring-Sean-Along' thing, because he was hitting on my girl! I mean, not like she's my property, but hey, she's my girlfriend. I stroke her golden hair and look into her brown, innocent eyes. Whatever brought her to me, anyways?

JeMMa4Evr: Cameron, get ur eyes off Emma
SeLLiE4NvR: Jay wtf is ur problem?
JeMMa4Evr: The fact u only got eyz 4 Em
SeLLiE4NvR: no I dont u just got bad eye site

I turned around and glared at Sean. Secretly, I slipped the phone to Ellie and Lexi.

Drummer2Death: omfg…
JeMMa4Evr: wtf is his problem look hiM! -
LeXaLeX: ugh he got probs
JeMMa4Evr: No duh

All POV

SeLLiE4NvR: Wut r u talking about
LeXaLeX: u don't wanna no
SeLLiE4NvR: Fine w-e

They all shut their phones and Ellie glared at Sean viciously. "Damn, Sean, what's your damage?"
"His damage is that he can't keep his eyes off Emma," Alex replied for him.
Emma whirled the car to a stop and glanced back at Sean. Sean was staring out the window at the rain. "Who the heck wants to drive this car now?"
"Me," Alex answered. She smiled and stepped out of the car. She exchanged seats with Emma, who sat in Ellie's place, who sat in Jay's place, who sat in Alex's place.
"Crap, you guys can not get enough of each other, can you?" Sean hissed.
"Shut up," Ellie screeched.
"Ok…guys cut the crap and kiss and make up because I'm sick of your fuckin' bickering," Emma said under her breath. She took another deep sip of her water as Sean, Alex, Jay, and Ellie stared at her.
"What?" Emma asked, staring at everyone.
"Did you just say what I thought you said?" Alex asked. She broke the silence, as always.
"You mean…Okay…cut the crap and kiss and make up because I sick of your bickering?" Emma laughed.
"Did someone spike her drink…?"
"Is she crazy?"
"Is this Emma?"

Emma rolled her eyes and kissed Jay's neck. She felt his warm abs, and smelt his cologne. He was probably her perfect idea of a boyfriend.

Sean watched them in envy. He had to control himself from taking her away from him and beating the crap out of Jay.

"Okay, let's play a game," Ellie said. "Let's remember our past and remember…the good times and the bad times. I'll start."

"I liked when I was with Marco…it was nice. Then the break up was pretty harsh, finding out his sexuality. Gay, homosexual, whatever you call it, he is. I also loved when I threw the drum stick at Manny's head," Ellie said, as everyone laughed.

"Ahem, I liked it when I punched out Amy because she was getting all snuggly with Jimmy. Gawd, she needs a life. I like when I hooked up with Brooks," Alex smiled. She told them a flashback. Alex recalled the memory like this.
FLASHBACK

I grinned at Paige Michalchuck, who gave her a 'What's up?' look. I walked over to her and said, "Me and Jay broke it off…too cozy." I doubt she knew what I meant when I said 'too cozy', so I decided to explain it to her.
"Michalchuck, when things get 'too cozy' in the little world that's above your head, it means that we were more like siblings, damn it!" I threw the green paint all over her pink and purple Juicy gym suit and laughed. "You look funny, Paige."
Just to happen, Jimmy Brooks, who was angry at Hazel and Paige because they said he was too into Ellie, happened to take Alex's arm and say, "Hey Alex Nunez. Into anyone right now?"
I was about to scream, "Shut up basketball wannabe," but then I realized it was a hit on. I smiled and replied, "You, baby." I know, so not me, but hey…
Jimmy kissed my head, and I was about to wince, but then I realized I liked it. I liked Jimmy Brooks. Who could think of that? Hazel and Paige stared in shock. Proves you wrong, freaks, okay? So what am I gonna do without Jimmy for a while?

Emma smiled and Jay laughed. He put his arm around Emma, who was staring at a pair of eyes who were directed directly at her. "W/r/u staring ?" Emma put into her phone to Sean, and he said, "U, beautiful." She blushed and replied, "Thts swt but im tkn. K?" He replied, "I no, can I change that?" She was about to close the message when Jay took the phone.

"I'm outtie," Sean yelled, about to open the door. But then, Alex locked it.
"Outtie is for pouty girls," Ellie joked. "Besides, why are you 'outtie'?"
Jay handed the phone to El, and she handed it to Alex.
"Sean," Alex said. "You know…Emma is so not a cheater? You are. Not her. You."
"I didn't cheat…" Sean yelled.
"Ah, but young Skywalker is trying to use the force. Or something. Okay, so you want Emma to cheat on Jay in order to be with you," Ellie responded.

Emma curled up into a ball and closed her ears with her hand. Jay kissed her forehead and gave Sean a world famous smirk. Sean turned away and looked out the window, while Alex continued driving.
