"Class, this is Chester." introduced to her class.

Emma shifted uncomfortably in her seat beside Jay, just great. Her neighbour transferred from Lakehurst to Degrassi.

Chester was the one who took her to the dance where Jay came to say sorry about the lap top.

And then that whole fight happened.

Now?

He was at Degrassi.

Emma was so mad at Jay that night, she was very young then too, they're were older now, and gone through a lot. More mature.

Chester meant nothing... Emma hoped Jay could see that.

"Isn't that the guy who took you to the dance?" Jay asked her, leaning forward in his seat curiously.

"Mhm." Emma swallowed.

Jay looked at her and quietly asked, "Did you go as friends?"

"Yeah." She said with a wierd smile. Jay eyed her but nodded.

pointed to a seat near them and Chester went his way over as he spotted them.

"Hey Emma." He greeted with a smile and saw her awfully close to some guy he then recognized, "Jay, right?"

"Yeah." Barked Jay giving him a threatening look.

Jay watched as Chester sat down, eyeing the two up.

"Huh..." Chester drifted and turned around.

"That's what he said?" Sean asked Jay, now sitting at their table at lunch.

"Yeah, huh." Jay repeated. What the hell did that mean?

"Wierd." Sean admitted.

Jay nodded and explained, "He just looked at me like he knows something, and won't stop staring at Emma."

"Maybe... they did something." Sean confirms and Jay glared.

"Just because your girl friend fucked you over, doesn't mean mine did." He sneered.

He then took back what he said quickly, shit. He looked at Sean and opened his mouth-

"I was trying to help, asshole." Sean said, storming off.

Sean made it to his locker and stood at it emotionlessly and then kicked it hard.

"Sean, you alright?" Healther Sinclair asked, coming over with a minion and a smirk slapped on her face.

"You need some company?" the minion asked, eyeing him up hungrily.

What's with the girls in this school flying themselves at the boy boys? You should be running away.

"No, I'm fine." He growled.

"There must be something I can do." Heather insisted.

Manny was walking down the hall as she saw Heather harressing Sean, and putting one of her hands on his shoulder, standing more than too close.

Manny came behind the other way and wrapped herself around Sean.

"He's already taken." Manny snapped at Heather and gave her a 'back off' stare.

Sean went stiff and looked down at Manny and then smirked seeing Heather back off.

"Ofcourse." Heather said and turned, "Slut."

Manny frowned and rolled her eyes, watching Heather until out of sight before letting Sean go. Slut? Mhm, this school needed new material.

"It was that or they wouldn't leave." Manny said with a sorry look to Sean.

Sean chuckled and said, "Thanks Manny." She just nodded and shrugged simply.

" No prob. Have you seen Spinner around? He's been avoiding me like the plague." She said a bit sadly and looked around.

"Um...I don't think he's here today." Sean said with guilt. He wasn't a good liar. He knew Spinner was out last night cause they went to the same party. Sean was 100% sure he went into a room with Paige.

"Oh ok. See yeah." Manny waved at him and slowly started leaving to then turn back, "Sean?"

Sean snapped out of his guilty thoughts and looked at her, "Yeah?" suddenly she wrapped her arms around him and pressed against him tightly.

Sean swallowed hard.

"I'm sorry for what happened. That was a cold thing to do." Manny said, pulling away.

Sean watched her in awe as she left. Oh, Ellie.. that's what she was talking about. God, he swore he could still feel Manny's body against his.

So that's why the guys went crazy over her.

He always knew Manny as little Manny, Emma's best friend. He couldn't see her the way she changed into, but now he was... and my had she grown.

"Chester." Emma called, running after her 'good ol' neighbour!

"Oh hey Emmalean." He said with a crooked smile, leaning on a locker flirting with some girl who excused herself when Emma arrived.

"God, don't call me that." Emma said with a gross look and then asked, "Um, could you do me a favour?"

"Anything for you."

Alex heard this and looked over. What did that mean?Who was this guy and why was Emma so desperate to talk to him?

"Yeah, don't do that." Emma instructed

"Huh?" asked Chester, he was confused.

Emma explained, "That's my favour. No winking, no flirting... Not only will I hit you, Jay will..."

"Ahhh, jealous boyfriend?" Chester asked, getting it now.

"Very."

"Does he know I..."

"Stop." Emma pleaded, shutting her eyes, and then begged him, "You can't tell anyone what happened with us, please."

Alex smirked looking between the two, and tried hiding behind her locker so not to get caught.

"I promise." Chester said with a nod.

In auto class, Jay was helping his auto teacher Tony how to direct the younger students in building a car.

"Just put the engine in.." Jay told one of the freshmen.

Alex came in and looked around to then find Jay and smirked going over.

"You won't believe what I heard." She said into his ear.

Jay looked over and rolled his eyes. She would never give up, would she?

Jay joked, "You've moved on and met another guy to harress and your moving to China with him?" he sounded hopeful.

"More like your girl friend had something goin' on with the new guy." Alex said while raising her eyebrow.

Jay stopped everything he was doing and turned back to her.

"What?" he asked.

Alex mocked, "Her words exactly: You can't tell anyone what happened with us. Told him to stay away from you too, and not say anything." She shrugged, "What do you think that's all about?"

Alex was a bunch of things, but sadly... not a liar.

Jay threw his wrench to the ground and stormed off
