CHAPTER 13

A couple of hours later, after a few tests and the a complete check over by the doctor, Emma was released from the hospital. The doctor told her that she may continue to feel a bit woozy over the next day or so and also gave her the name and phone number of a good counsellor who specialized in talking to people who had been attacked.

Emma felt much better just knowing Sean would be with her the next couple of days. They had already planned that they would rent a few movies and go for another picnic at the ravine. Sean was also scheduled to be at Degrassi High at lunch hour on Monday with a recruiter from the armed forces to answer any questions any students had about joining the military. She was happy that Sean was proud of what he had accomplished so far.

After a late lunch at home Sean informed her that he had to go out for a little bit. "Where are you headed to Sean?" Emma asked.

"I told Jay I'd stop by for a few minutes while I was home. I figured now was a good time and then afterwards we'd have the rest of the weekend to ourselves."

"I think that's a great idea." She got out of her chair and stood next to Sean by the door as he was getting his boots on. "Drive Safe." she said and added "I love you Sean Cameron."

"I love you too Miss Emma Nelson." They smiled at each other and kissed goodbye.

A few minutes later Sean arrived at Jay's apartment. He knocked on the door. "Who is it?" Jay yelled from inside the apartment.

"Only your best bud." Sean said back as he opened the door and entered the apartment.

Jay was laying on the couch. It looked as though he had passed out there from the night before. Sean noticed the empty beer cans on the coffee table. "What time is it?" Jay asked.

"3:30 in the afternoon." Sean replied.

"Wow, I didn't realize I slept so late." Jay sat up and moved over to make some room for Sean to sit down on the couch as well.

"Jay, I wanted to come over and say thank you for everything you did last night to help Emma out. It was nice to know that you were there for her when I couldn't be."

"No sweat Soldier." Jay smirked "Just a typical day in the life of Jay Hogart. Go to work, come home, eat supper and save a pretty girl. You know, the usual"

"Soldier, huh? I think I liked when you called me Seanie better. Gonna give up the soldier nickname and go back to calling me Seanie." Sean asked.

"Not a chance soldier. Oh and by the way, you owe me."

"Owe you?" Sean said. "Oh that's right you wanted a 12 pack of beer the next time I came back to visit."

"Well after the work I did last night and now that my hand is a bit messed up from knocking out that guy I'd say you owe me more than a 12 pack."

Sean thought for a moment. What else could he give Jay. He had already said thank you. Then it came to him. "How about 24 beer? Would that make us even."

"You got a deal." Jay said and extended his hand for Sean to shake on it. Sean laughed and shook Jay's hand.
