I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired I know
Right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
And how I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little lonely
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell

Emma glanced around nervously, not wanting to be late- nerds are very particular about being on time for any thing that involves science. She had no idea where Rick held his club in though since Libertys were in science.

She was by the office after school when she noticed Jay Hogart leaning against the wall by the door. He wore his usual backward black hat and wore that usual smirk too as he locked eyes with her.

"Not shocked seeing you here." muttered Emma trying to keep her eyes off him and looked around for any hint where the sciene club meeting would be, "have you seen Toby? Or Rick Murray?" she asked and then frowned, knowing that was probably a stupid question to ask him, unless..you know, he just stuffed them into a locker.

Jay even snickered, shaking his head, "don't know where your boyfriends at."

Emma snapped her eyes at him and instantly crossed her arms, "What's that suppose to mean?" she glared into his blue eyes, for being such a bad boy, you'd wonder why God gave him such trustful looking eyes and a nice smile when he was just a theif, a cheat.

It was very deceiving for a girl ! but she knew better, unlike the others.

Jay rolled his eyes, "Everybody knows your crushin on Murray." he confirms and then paused, going serious, "You should watch out though, heard he put a girl into acoma." he admitted and stood up straighter, looking down at her.

Emma glared, she wouldn't believe that! Though... she swore she heard that from someone else too. She sighed, leaning on the wall beside him. Maybe she was just acting too desperate for a nerd, it had to be the RIGHT nerd, doesn't have to be glasses or a cliche nerd but someone who was smart, shy, mannered..

Emma then blinked and rememberd she was standing next to her enemy and looked up at him awkwardly, he must of noticed this too because his head turned and stared at her too.

He blinked, shocked. "Shit." he blurted out, removing his eyes off her

Emma blinked once more, wondering where that came from, "What?" she laughed a bit, giving him a wierd look as he snuck another glance at her and just shook his head.

"Nothing." he coughed and picked his bag up, "Catch you later." he seemed to be in a hurry.

"Don't you have detention?!" Emma called after him and glanced at the office, then to the door he bursted out from. She tilted her head to see the school slut, Amy, chase him to his car and rolled her eyes. See? Predictable. Girls thought they could change a guy like Jay Hogart. You just couldn't.

Suddenly she thought about his eyes and smile again, then shook her head, Science suddenly seemed incredibly interesting and she raced to go find that club meeting.

Finally, a few days of joining the team, Emma had to say, it was a complete... fail! Rick would do anything to try to get away from her, trying to flee whnever he could and he just stutterd whenever she tried to talk to him, it was getting rather old! Another week had gone by and she sat listening to his ending speech before club time was done.

"and next week we will have a trivia game." he coughed awkwardly and pushed up his glasses, "Toby me and Emma will be on one team...Lucy, Trevor and Ryan on the other." his eyes were on the ground as Emma looked impressed..well, that was different, he finally picked her to be on his team! She even smirked when he quickly glanced at her and then away blushing.

Emma walked out feeling pretty good, as if she completed a mission and even saw Rick standing in the hall, waiting for his mom to give him a ride.

"Rick!"

"E-Em..Emma, hi." he finally got her name out, Emma sighed, finally.

"Are you going to that party next weekend?" she asked curiously as a figure from behind her came on over.

"well n-no, I wasn't invited but-" Rick stopped midsentence and looked like a deer in the headlights, whatever was behind Emma, scared him off and he went running out of school.

Emma gave a puzzeled look until she turned and saw Jay standing there, watching with amusement as Rick ran away, "Look what you did!" Emma exclaimed at him and he couldn't help but look at her and then smirk.

he chuckled, "As if you were getting anywhere." he taunted.

"What do you mean?" Emma asked, a bit taken back. She was NOT vaine! But she has heard she was one of the hottest girls in school! How DARE Jay say she had no game!?

"You practically raped him. Lucky bastard." Both sentences stunned Emma when Jay spoke. He seemed to change the subject fast "Want a ride home?" he flipped his car keys out of his jacket.

Emma swallowed hard, "You don't think I'm good enough for Rick?" why did that bother her that Jay said that..

Jay looked at her like she was insane, "I'm just saying you probably intimidate him, and nerds like Rick dont go for that."

Emma tilted her head, "What does he go for?" she asked.

Jay snorted, looking around boredly, "I'm positive He likes his girls quiet and timid and cotton candy sweet."

Emma considered that for a minute. "I can be quiet and timid and cotton candy sweet." hell, she was the sweetest girl in school! She was KNOWN as cause girl HELLO!

She almost even squeeked when Jay took such a closer step towards her, his head tilting a bit more down towards her, so close it made Emma's face feel hot, "You're definatly cotton candy sweet." his deep voice spoke lowly to her, "But you can't be quiet," he gave her a playful grin "and you are not timid one bit Greenpeace."

When Emma got the nerve to look up and into his eyes to glare, she saw that sparkle glee in his, like he was infatuated with something about her. That's silly! Her and Jay were enimies, nothing more.. where was Rick? She needed to hear him claim his love for her, not be wasting time on bad news boys. There was practically a sign over Jay's head warning Emma to protect herself.

"I'll walk thank yu." Emma said, raising an eyebrow at him and then walked off. Jay couldn't help but watch her leave, and even snuck a peek as she tossed her hips back and forth and then grinned shaking his head.

Someone else came out from behind him, their strong arms crossed over their chest.

"Were you just talking to Emma?" Sean asked Jay, eyeing him.

Jay looked back, stopped grinning, to then snicker and shrug, "Don't worry Romeo.." he looked back where Emma left, "She's not interested." for some reason he felt himself feel a bit down on that

Sean nodded and left, Jay stood there staring where Emma once stood, confused.. when did he care about a girls feelings towards him?
