Chapter 10 Out of the Loop
A few days had passed since the shooting and school was out. School was to be canceled for a week, and Emma was let out of the hospital.
True Jimmy was still in there but, Alex was happy. Her friend was out of the hospital meaning that everything would go back to how it was before, calm, easy-going, and shallow. Well not easy-going and calm because usually one of the three friends would obsessing about either boy for days on end.
But Alex just hopped Emma would be Emma and all would be ok. So Alex decided to throw Emma a little party, for being out of the hospital. Alex was throwing it, but of course it wasn't at her house, no it was at Sean's.
So that was why Alex was at Emma's going throw all her clothes trying to pick something hot out for Emma. The search wasn't going so well, since Emma wanted to hide her arm, ever since the shooting people would ask her questions about it. But mostly everything Emma owned that was hot was showing her arms, so that was why Emma was pissed and Alex was pissed. It wasn't a very good way to start the night.
"Emma! Stop being like this and show your damn ARM!" Alex yelled throwing a lime green lacy camisole on the bed, finally getting fed up.
Emma sat down on the bed next to it and sighed, she was tired. Tired of the questions, and tired of the denial she was in.
"Alex...why are you throwing this party?"
"Cause your out of the hospital, stupid." Alex sat down next to her, also tired.
She hopped this conversation wasn't going, where she thought it was going.
"I...I...Alex...Why has Jay been avoiding me?"
Alex's head snapped up, a look of confusion on her face. "What are you talking about? Every time I see him he says he's going to see you."
"Well he hasn't, not for the past...well since the first time he came with you guys." Emma looked down and absently rubbed her cast.
"Do you think he knew this would happen?" Alex was confused for a minute, knew that he was going to start and avoiding Emma? Then she realized she was talking about the shooting. "Emma...Em, he didn't...he was at your jeopardy thing. He...didn't do anything."
Alex had a hard time saying that, because it was a lie. Jay was involved, so was she, and Spinner.
Emma rolled her eyes and got up walking around her room, not looking at Alex. "Alex I'm not stupid, you and Jay did it." Emma turned around and looked at her guilty friend, "so why? Did you know he'd come after me? Do you think Jay knew? And why is he avoiding me?"
It was quiet and Alex knew with all her heart, that Jay could not have known. From what she'd seen from him and Emma before the shooting they were happy, HE was happy. It was a first for him. But the real question she asked herself was, why? Why was Jay avoiding Emma, was he guilty about what happened? Was he cheating? Was he going to the ravine? Why? Why? Why?
"I don't know Em to all the questions but, I'm pretty sure he doesn't want anything to happen to you, but Jay...Jay's a complicated guy, you have to be careful."
There was a pause as they thought.
Then Alex broke it by holding up a pair of black ripped jeans, and a short white skirt.
"Now, black jeans? White skirt?"
Emma smiled and took the black jeans and a red silky camisole. "Let me go shower." Alex smirked knowing she had just gotten her away from thinking about Jay.
They arrived at Sean's a little later then planned since Emma wanted to put a sweater on over the cami, but they were there all the same.
Sean came up to them smiling a little, then handed Emma a drink.
Emma shook her head, "I took Pain killers."
Sean shrugged and handed it to Alex who drank deeply.
"Where's Jay?" Emma asked, as they walked around a little.
Sean shrugged, "Last time I saw him he was getting hammered BIG time."
Emma sighed, remembering the last time he got drunk...with her...leading to making out...when she was with Sean.
"Oh, ok. Where's Ellie?"
"Ordering a Pizza."
Emma nodded seeing a red head come up to her at that moment.
"Ok, a Hawaiian Pizza, and a pepperoni are on the way."
"Who are all these people?" Emma asked looking around.
Sean shrugged, looking around too. "People that are filling your party."
Emma shrugged smiling as she saw a backwards baseball cap coming there way.
"Hey J—"
"Emma!" Jay said slurring.
"Isn't it a bit early to get plastered?" Sean asked joking around.
"Sean I have to tell you something." Jay pointed his finger at him then took a sip of his beer bottle.
"What?"
"You...you always through good parties!" Jay laughed taking another drink.
Then he turned to Emma.
"Emma! Emma, I'm...s-s-sorry. That cast is ugly."
Emma blushed at his comment.
"I always thought you were sucha na-nature girl and now! Getting shot by your crush that's SOOO big!" Jay took another sip and wobbled.
"You have great legs. I liked you even before we went out when you were dating Sean, that night..."
Emma starred in horror at him, not now! He wasn't going to tell him now! When he was PLASTERED!
"Jay, go lie down, come on."
Sean looked back and forth between the too, what was he missing? He was totally out of the loop.
"Emma! I think I love you! You hot thang, you!" Jay cried as she led him to Sean's empty bedroom.
"Jay come on sit down." Emma pushed him on the bed then went to get a bucket, Sean's room didn't have a bathroom.
"Emma...I'm sorry for everything. I'm sorry I've been avoiding you."
Jay's eyes closed, then he blindly groped for her uncasted hand.
"Em, I think I love you. And if something was to have happened...I'd never forgive myself." that was when Jay dosed off into a dreamless sleep, later to be waken by puking.
"How is he?" Sean asked later on, as they cleaned, it was about 4 in the morning and finally the last guest had left, they were all tired and just wanted to sleep.
"He's fine, resting now...I hope." Emma said taking a breath in. Truth was she was a little confused, if Jay loved her or atleast thought he did, why was he avoiding her?
Emma went over to the couch and slumped down next to Ellie.
"SOOOOO tired, could just fall asleep here."
Emma nodded, "parents aren't even home, won't care." the two drifted off as Sean cleaned and Craig and Alex made out on the porch.
They were woken a little while later by a large crash. Emma jerked her head off Ellie's shoulder and looked around for the noise.
"What the----" but she was cut off as she saw Sean practically throw Jay across the room.
"Sean what is----" Ellie started but was cut off.
"How could you! You weren't into her! You claimed to hate her!" Sean yelled as he punched Jay, then tried again but Jay punched him back.
"We didn't do anything! Besides you were into Ellie."
"But I didn't love Ellie, I loved Emma!"
Sean punched Jay again, and Jay pushed Sean causes him to crash to the floor.
"Well now you too are broken up! Get over it Sean! You love Ellie I love Emma!"
"I told you I love Emma not Ellie!"
There was a ringing silence as Sean glanced over to the now full awake girls, Jay looked over at them too.
Emma's eyes were as big as saucers, and Ellie was silently crying.
"News flash for you Sean. Emma is in love with Jay, they've been in love or lust not sure, with each other since before you broke up they were all over each other at that party we went too, everyone knew but YOU!"
Ellie got up, marched to the bathroom and slammed the door.
The silence was stretching on.
"You too made out?" Sean asked quietly.
Emma looked at him confused wasn't that what he was yelling about earlier. "Yeah...wasn't that what you were talking about?" Emma asked hesitantly.
Sean shook his head.
"Lucy Miller came up to him after you two fell asleep, said she forgot something, told him I was real into you when you too were together. Nothing about our drunken night together."
Emma put her hand to her mouth. "Sean I'm sorry really----"
"Save it! Just take Ellie and leave."
"But Sean----"
"LEAVE!"
Sean took a lamp and smashed it against a wall.
"Leave!"
Emma hurried to get Ellie out of the bathroom and left the house passing Alex and Craig in a not-so Pg-13 position sucking each others mouths off.
Some Emma's back from the hospital Party that was, Emma thought bitterly.
