Chapter 15

Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi or any of its characters.

Craig's POV:

Ever since Emma got back into the car it's been silent. We're almost back to Sean's house now and she looks like she's been in deep thought since we left Manny's. I still want to know what in the hell she was doing at Manny's house. Manny and I haven't spoken since I apologized for everything that I did to her. I remember it just like yesterday…….

FLASHBACK

(Craig just walked up to Manny and sat down next to her outside of DCS. JT was watching them in the distance being jealous. I believe this was in "Our House.")

Still Craig's POV

I just walked up to Manny and sat down next to her. She looked away from me.

"Craig I don't want to talk to you," she whispered quietly.

I had to get her to talk to me. I thought things over about the baby and the abortion and everything. I was being really unfair. And I'm a jerk! I need to apologize to her. I feel so guilty. And it's not just that. I was in love with Manny too, but I couldn't choose between her and Ash. I know it makes me sound like the biggest asshole in Canada; hell I feel like the biggest asshole in Canada.

"Manny, please listen. You don't have to talk but can you please just listen to me?"

"Fine, you have one minute and if you say anything hurtful I can't guarantee that I won't slap you."

"I won't say anything hurtful Manny! I promise…besides I'm scared of your slap…it's painful!"

She cracked a smile…I always did know how to make girls smile. But then she quickly stopped smiling when she realized what she was doing.

"Look Manny, I'm really sorry about everything that happened between us. I should have never pushed you to keep the baby when you didn't want to. And I should have never dated you and Ash at the same time. I'm the biggest asshole in Canada ok? And I'm just really sorry about everything. I know that doesn't seem like much Manny but I mean it with all of my heart! I really do!"

She smiled at me.

"I know Craig, I know you're sorry. And I wish I could say that I wish none of this ever happened. But I'm glad it happened Craig. You were my first love and I'm glad I got my first heartbreak out of the way. I can't say that we'll be friends because we won't. But I can say that I'm over you and it makes me proud. I thought I never would be over you Craig. But I really like JT and I'm starting to get over the whole abortion thing. So thanks for apologizing Craig."

I smiled at her and we hugged.

"Goodbye Craig," she said as she kissed my cheek and walked away. She said goodbye as if it was the last time we were going to speak.

END FLASHBACK

And that was the last time we ever spoke.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Craig and Emma arrived back at Sean's house a few minutes later.

Emma's POV:

I just wanted to go back to Sean's room and wait for him to get home. I know he's coming back for me. But when I walked into his house, I saw more people in the living room there than there was before. Paige, Spinner, Marco, Jimmy, Hazel, Alex, Jay, and Ellie were all in his living room. They were all staring at my like I had gone crazy. Paige and I became really good friends that day I found her crying in the bathroom. But we didn't hang out as much as Alex and Ellie and Jay and Sean and Craig and I did. And Spinner, Jimmy, and I got really close after the shooting too. Marco and I became really good friends when I became really good friends with Ellie and Alex. I can understand why they're all here but Hazel? Hazel and I never really talked…at all.

"Did you guys tell the whole school!" I screamed looking at Alex and Ellie.

"We just told Jay. Paige called my cell because she wanted to know why she had to cover for me at the theatre today. And Marco was with Paige. And Jimmy called here to talk to Sean but—"

"But what?"

"But it just slipped out!"

Oh well. They would have found out about it anyways.

"It's ok. Look I'm sorry I'm snappy but I just don't really want to talk right now."

"Em, it's ok. We just came to show our support hun," Paige said, trying not to get on my bad side.

"Besides we all had nothing to do and we wanted to get front row seats to either the fight of the year or the most romantic thing ever!" Jimmy said in a really girlish voice.

I rolled my eyes and Hazel hit Jimmy playfully in the chest.

"Right. Well I don't think you'll see either. If Sean ever gets back to Degrassi he'll kick all of you guys out before we talk."

"You never know," Jimmy said smirking at me.

I rolled my eyes again.

I noticed Jay hasn't said anything to me yet….normally he'd be making fun of me for wanting to talk to Amy. Ha-I can't believe I talked to Amy. So weird. Jay looks like he just saw a ghost or something…he's pale and hasn't been talking. Jay's been acting weird ever since Craig and I left. That's so strange.

"Well hey guys, I appreciate you all being here for support or what not but I'm just going to go into Sean's room for a while. I kind of just want to be alone."

"Ok hun, but we're still staying. You can't get rid of us that fast. Besides you might need to talk to one of us and we'll be right here. We're bored anyways…there's nothing to do."

I rolled my eyes.

"Ok you guys can stay but don't expect me to talk."

They all say ok as I head back to Sean's room. I still have on his dark blue hoodie. I laid down on his bed and just stared at the ceiling; hoping that wherever Sean was right now he was thinking of me too…..

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sean's POV:

I'm two towns away from Degrassi. I'm almost there. God I've been driving over the speed limit the whole time and it's still taking forever! I wish I could just get there quicker! GOD! What's wrong with me! This could have been the best night ever but no I had to go and screw it up! I'M SUCH A FUCKING MORON! UGH! Emma will understand….I hope she will anyways.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Still Sean's POV. Sean just got to his house. He has some weird instinct that Emma was there. He pulled into his driveway and saw Paige's van the one her parents gave her when they got a new car and Jimmy's van his dad got him a guy to drive him around wherever he wanted to go and Joey's red car that he lets Craig drive around sometimes and then Jay's car.)

Oh great! The whole gang's here. I must have really hurt Emma. They all wouldn't be here if I hadn't. I walked inside and gulped as I saw everyone sitting in the living room. All of their eyes suddenly fell on me. They all started yelling. I have no clue what they were saying and I didn't really care either. But damn if they didn't move and shut up I wouldn't find out where Emma was.

"EVERYONE SHUT THE HELL UP RIGHT NOW AND TELL ME WHERE THE FUCK EMMA IS!" I screamed. They all shut up and took a step back, shocked.

"She's in your bedroom dude," Spinner told me, kind of scared.

I didn't even bother to tell them to get out; I just ran back to my bedroom and hoped they didn't follow.

I hesitantly opened my bedroom door. I saw Emma lying on my bed, her back was facing me. I expected her to yell and scream and tell me to get out, thinking I was someone else. But she didn't.

"What took you so long?" She whispered. And I know she knows it's me. So I walked over to the bed and laid down behind her, I wrapped my arms around her stomach and laid my face on hers from behind. She turned around and buried her face in my chest as I wrapped my arms around her more and held her. A few tears escaped from her eyes. I tried not to, but I couldn't help it; I started crying also. We just held each other like that for a few minutes. Then I pulled her face up and wiped away her tears.

"I'm so sorry Emma. I'm so, so sorry! I'm sorry I couldn't say it. But I can now. I love you Emma Christine Nelson, I love you with all of my heart. Throughout the years you broke my heart, I broke yours and we were both left walking around like zombies with uncompleted hearts. But then that gun was pointed at you and I realized why my life felt worthless…it was because you weren't in it and I knew I couldn't let you die. So I saved you but then I left. But I called you and visited you and we talked. And each time we talked or saw each other, I fell in love with you even more. I've loved you since the seventh grade Em, and I'm not about to stop now! Every time you kiss me I feel weak at the knees. Every time we make love I can't move afterwards and I know that everything will be ok. My head always screams I LOVE YOU but I can never get the nerve to say it and I'm sorry. You're the only person that I ever loved with all of my heart before and I didn't know how to say it. You're my soul mate Emma; my one and only someone. I can't live without you. (Sean puts his hand on his heart) Emma I'm giving you my heart (He takes his hand and puts Emma's hand on his heart) please don't ever break it."

I said that with all of my heart. Tears are streaming down Emma's face and she's smiling the biggest I've ever seen her smile. She grabs my face and kisses me even more passionately than our first kiss.

"I love you Sean," She says as she pulls away.

"I love you too Emma!"

She smiles at me again and then kisses me. I slip my tongue into her mouth as her hands tangle into my hair. After a few minutes of making out, I roll on top of her and she wraps her legs around my waist. My hand creeps up her shirt while she places soft butterfly kisses on my neck.

"Emma, will you be my girlfriend….again?"

Emma laughs a little.

"Of course."

"I just thought you'd like to be asked the formal way."

She smiles.

"You always know what I want, Sean. And right now I want you to make love to me," she whispers.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the living room:

"So, do you think they're making up?" Paige asked no one in particular.

"Well, we haven't heard any shrill screams from Greenpeace or any lamps flying against walls so yeah I'm assuming they're making up." Jay says smirking. He finally got out of his "funk."

"Let's just hope those two make up for good then the drama can be over," Jimmy said and laughed.

"I think we all agree on that one dude," Spinner said and laughed with Jimmy.

(In this story Spin and Jimmy are still good friends because Spin and Jay and Alex NEVER did the paint thing for those of you who don't remember.)

"Emma and Sean deserve to be happy. At least one blonde here should be," Paige remarked snidely while she glared at Spinner.

Spinner frowned and stared right back at her.

(Loud moans come from the bedroom.)

"What in the fuck?" Spinner says as he snaps out of his trance.

"Yeah well at least that's what's going on in there Spin. Emma and Sean must be having a fuck fest!" Jay says as he laughs and runs to the bedroom door and puts his ear up to listen.

"Oh my God Jay you're such a fucking pervert! You loser assed moron!" Paige yelled and hit Jay in the back of the head. Alex drags Jay back into the living room and everyone cracks up laughing.

"Well it's about fucking time, damn!" Craig says.

"Yeah, well I say we all leave. I don't want to sit around and listen to someone else having sex when I could be doing the same right now," Ellie says looking at Craig.

Craig's voice gets squeaky as he says, "Yeah, well we're going to go."

Craig and Ellie run out the door.

The remaining people in the living room all crack up laughing.

(Moaning from the bedroom gets louder.)

"Um Yeah, well why don't we all go?"

They all look at each other and silently agree. All of them leave. The only sound you can hear Sean's apartment is the sound of the door shutting and Emma and Sean's moans from the bedroom.

So what do you think? Sorry it took so long to write. I've been thinking about starting another story about Emma and Sean. Here's my idea for another story: After Emma and Sean's break up in "Gangsta Gangsta" they haven't spoken. Emma is kind of crushing on Chris but is still in love with Sean. Sean is with Amy. Emma and Sean hate each other now. Sean is fixing Snake's car for him to make up for stealing the lap top. But he and Ellie never got together and This Charming Man never happened. It's summer now. Sean loses his student welfare for some reason and he has nowhere to go. So Snake and Spike, who like Sean, invite him to live at the Simpson-Nelson residence. Emma is extremely pissed when she finds out. Sean is staying in Jack's room with him. They fight all the time. Emma's parents leave for a week, with Jack, to visit Snake's parents. Emma and Sean are all alone. They still fight all the time…but old feelings start to arise—that mixed with lust and alcohol, from the wild party they have ALL WEEK, and hormones all in one can be deadly.

WHAT DO YOU THINK? Oh and I have an idea for sometime in the future of the story I'm writing right now. Peter will come into the picture. He invites the whole gang to a weekend at his parent's beach house. But in there's cameras in every room except the bathroom—although there is one in the shower. They all dare each other to do a ton of stuff and Peter records it on the video cameras. Then at the end of the trip, Peter shows them the footage.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THIS IDEA?

Let me know. I'll try to post in the next few days!
