I Need Your Help...
Manny and Spike, and Jack, at Spike's house:
"Manny, honey, it's going to be okay," said Spike.
"Okay? Okay! Spike! I may be pregnant. Again! And now, I don't even have Craig here to help, I don't know what to do," she burst out crying.
"Manny, I know things may seem terrible, but it will get better, I know it-" Spike started.
"Get better? Spike, I may be having a baby, a child, and last time, after the, ahem, the uh, after we took care of it,we regretted it, really we did. And I know Craig was sad, and I was sad, we wished we had that baby. And if I am, pregnant, Craig would want me to have that baby, but I don't know if I can do it without him."
"Manny, sweetie, I love you. With all my heart. You are like my second daughter. When I got pregnant, I was so scared, the father wanted to be apart of Emma's life, but his parents didn't want him to. He was pushed out, then, he was out forever. A child isn't the same, without their father, no, but they make it. Emma did. She went and searched for her father, and hated me for what I was keeping from her. Your child will grow up healthy, happy, if you let them know from the day they were born, that their father was a good man, and tell them who he was. They still will be missing apart of them, but they'll have you, and you'll be missing apart of you, too. It'll be okay. If you are pregnant, you'll have me. And your friends, and your parents, and-"she stopped when she realized Manny was crying, "Manny honey, it's okay."
"Spike, I have no friends, if I'm pregnant and my parents find out, I'll be kicked out, and, they'll hate me. My father and I aren't the same anymore. I promised that it wouldn't happen again, that I would do what I did...but Craig was so beautiful, and so sweet, I wanted to be with him, forever, and ever. I knew it wasn't right, but I couldn't stop myself. I loved him, and I still do."
"I know how you feel, really I do. It's okay. If your parents kick you out, you can always stay here. Of course you will stay here!"
"Spike, Emma hates me, really she does. It's terrible, everyday at school, I was shunned, I was not allowed to sit down at lunch, I spent every lunch in Ms. Kwan's empty class, because she let me, she knew my situation. Craig was the only happy thing in my life, even though we weren't together, he called me, we hung out, not at school of course, but we did. Now I have no one."
"You have me, Manny. And we don't even know if you're pregnant. If you aren't that is fine. If you are, think of it as a blessing, a little bit of you a little bit of Craig, in a new person. It'll be okay. I promise." She wrapped Manny in a hug.
Emma walked in.
"What are you doing here!" Emma said.
"Emma, stop, right now. Manny is staying for dinner."
"No it's okay, Spike I can go h-" Manny started.
"No, Manny. I am here for you. You're staying, regardless of what Emma wants," Spike looked up.
"What! MOM! What the hell has gotten into you. I'm sorry Manny that Craig died, but I am sad too! It is not like you were together, or like he loved you, or something! Think of Ashley!" Emma said.
"EMMA! Go to your room!" Spike yelled.
"But Mo-"
"NO! NOW!"
