Chapter 6: Childhood Dreams
Now Emma and Sean were both sitting on the floor, leaning against the lockers. She felt comfortable with him and explained her dream.
"Then I saw bright lights and I woke up" She said after she finished.
"You really don't remember anything do you?" Sean said looking at her.
"Well sometimes things just pop in my head and I can remember them but I really don't know what they mean."
"Emma you really should tell your parents they can help you"
"Ask about what?"
"About you remembering these things. Then you can see if it's time."
"Time for what? Sean, you're not making any since at all"
"Just listen Emma," he said looking down. "They told you once and you blacked out and couldn't remember anything, then same happened the second time."
"So you mean this, like right now, I've done this before? And this thing with Jay?"
"Wait, what with Jay?"
"Oh you know him?"
"Yeah, I mean, he's a friend"
"But he said he didn't know you, at least that's what he told me"
Sean stood up but Emma stayed on the floor.
"Why would he do this" he said pretending to think. "Oh wait, I know, because he's Jay. Lying, stealing, and cheating. Just all around bad guy."
"Then why is he my boyfriend?" Emma asked herself silently but Sean overheard her.
"What?" he said his anger rising.
"Never mind, I have to go home. My mom's probably still there and I can talk to her."
"Well, I'll come with you"
Emma stood up and walked out of Degrassi with Sean trailing behind.
"I can't believe you need me
I never thought I would be needed for anything
I can't believe my shoulder would carry such important weight
As your head and your tears
I can't believe you chose me, in all my fragility, me
It hurts so much when I love you, it makes me cry
Every time"
