A BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP
I looked up praying that I was daydreaming. But, I wasn't. She had tears in her eyes. The look on her face made me want to cry! Then she started to run away.
"No wait Emma come back!" I yelled. She was already long gone. But, I couldn't give up I ran after her. I could hear Sean calling after me, but I just ignored him. I ran in the direction she did and never found her so I decided to go to her house. I rang the doorbell and he mother answered.
"Ms. Nelson can I please talk to Emma? It's really important." I asked eagerly.
"She is really upset right now. She won't tell me what happened either. So, I don't think it's a good time." She answered.
"It's my fault though! I didn't mean to hurt her I swear. But, please let me in I REALLY want to fix this!" I said so desperately.
"Well, alright, but I really hope you fix it I hate to see her like this." Spike said. She then let me in and I went up the stairs slowly but determinedly. I heard sobbing and when I came to her door I knocked.
"GO AWAY" she screamed.
"Please Emma let me talk, let me in and let me fix this." I said pleadingly.
"Oh it's you. Just never talk to me again!" She yelled.
"Emma before you make that decision can you just hear what I have to say. Then if you still hate me I'll leave you alone for however long you want. Please!" I said so pleadingly I sounded like I was two years old begging my mother to buy that one toy.
"Fine but I guarantee I won't change my mind." She said sounding extremely angry. She opened her door and let me in.
"Emma as soon as I walked through the doors of Degrassi I saw Sean right away and immediately liked him. But, he wasn't the only person I liked. As soon as I met you and Manny I saw two amazing people who could be like my sisters. I found out that you had a major crush on him and got a little disappointed" tears started forming in my eyes "I swore that I would find someone else. But, then he asked my out and I couldn't say no to his eyes. I am sorry, so sorry, the sorriest I have ever been in my life. And if it makes you feel any better he told me he likes both of us. That means he likes you back, Em" I finished and rushed out of the room as fast as I could and ran home. I cried myself to sleep that night, ignoring every phone call from Sean.
SCHOOL
I woke up and remembered all that happened the previous night. So, I dreaded having to go to school today. But, I had to and who knows maybe my speech did change Emma's mind. I left so quickly I never got a chance to hear what she had to say. I walked to school and went to my locker right away hoping not to see Sean. I heard someone say my name and I turned to see Sean.
"Sean I'm real sorry about last night, but" he cut me off.
"But you don't want to go out again?"He said very sadly.
"Yeah but I had a great time. It's just…..Emma." I said coldly.
"I know I get it." He said.
"But, you know how you said you liked both of us." I said hoping he would remember.
"Yah?" He said looking confused.
"Ask her out. It will make her the happiest person in the world." I said trying to sound convincing.
"Well, alright that's a great idea." He said happily.
I turned to finish getting my books when someone said "Hey." It was Emma!
"Oh, hi." I said as depressed as I could sound.
"I thought about what you said." She said.
"Oh cool." I said just praying that she would forgive me.
"I was really touched by what you said and I really liked it, but" I cut her off.
"But you're still mad and you hate me. So, I'll just leave you alone like I promised. But, I did one last thing for you and when the happiest moment of your life happens today just….well I hope you like it." I said and walked away heading to media immersion before listening to another word she said because it would make me cry.
LUNCH
Although Manny asked me to sit with our usual group today I decided to sit alone knowing that Emma and Sean would be at that table. I took out my Pb&j and began eating it. I looked over at Manny's table and noticed Sean and Emma weren't there. Then I looked over at the door and they were both entering. Emma had a huge grin on her face and she didn't walk to Manny's table instead she was walking over to me.
"Well the happiest moment of my life just happened and I liked it." She said smiling.
"I thought you'd like it." I answered happily.
"Thank you Sarah. I forgive you." She said and then hugged me.
I then moved back over to my usual table and everything was back to normal
