Jay didn't know where the hell his feet were taking him as he left the ravine until he stood outside of the Nelson house

He cursed at himself, pacing back and forth, ready to go, but then risking going to her door until he got the courage to just walk up and knock.

He cringed, hearing a baby start to cry. FUCK. Probably the wrong thing to do at 1am.

The door opened and Emma was there, looking around and saw nobody as Spike held Jack behind her

"Who is it?" Spike asked Emma.

Emma gave a wierd look, but shrugged her shoulders and closed the door, "probably someone playing knickey nine doors." she joked, shutting the door and the lights were out except for in the hall.

Jack seemed to fall back asleep on his mothers shoulder, "Alright, get to bed, you have school tomorrw." whispered Spike, going back upstairs.

Emma wore her pajama short shorts and white tank top, and she grazed her fingers through her hair as she walked back downstairs to her room, shutting the door behind her.

It was too dark so as she got to the bottom step, she turned the light out to scream and put a hand over her mouth quickly, seeing who it was.

Jay.

Jay stood there, awkwardly scratching the back of his head and coughed, "Sorry, I knew it was late." he nods to her open window, "So I climbed in.."

"So you break into my house?!" taunts Emma, going to the window and shutting it.

Jays huffs, "I wanted to clear the air okay?!"

Emma raised a cheeky eyebrow, "At 1 am? Tonight? Couldn't wait for tomorrow or to do it as soon as you pushed me into a wall?"

Jay looked away cringing, and Emma saw the hurt even in his eyes for doing that to her and her heart fell.

"I really thought you were 'A', Emma." Jay whispered honestly

"Who is 'A'!?" Emma snapped back, and he looked away, "And why did they come after me? Cause of you?" she taunts, crossing her arms.

Jay bit the end of the tounge. Damn, she was a smart cookie.

"I can't tell you."

Emma snickered, shaking her head, "Ofcourse you can't. Leave it to Jay to act like the lone wolf but brings everyone down into his shit."

Jay stared at her incredulously, first time other than the time she was drunk he heard her swear. She was definitely mad at him.

Jay and Emma heard her phone go off on her bed, but they ignored it.

"Just please believe me." Jay begged, walking closer to her and she took a step back, and saw the hurt in his eyes again.

She looked away, also hurt.

"I shouldn't of done what I did." Jay confirms, "I beat myself up for it every day of the summer and still today."

"Good." Emma seemed to reply rather gladly, sticking her chin up a bit and he sadly smirked. She tried to take a deep breath, sighing a bit but nodded, "Fine, you're forgiven."

Jay looked at her hopefully. Really? He was? He didn't expect her to forgive him, he just wanted her to hear him out..and she did. He was beyond releaved

Her phone went off yet again and Emma eyed him as he glanced at her but saw her try really hard not to look at herself.

He gave her a wierd look. Whose texting her at 1am on a school night? And why is she ignoring it with him in the room?

Jay tilted his head a bit, stepping one foot back.

Emma's mouth dropped, knowing what he was doing and he went to reach out to grab her phone, "You show up and break into my house to say sorry and ask me to believe you..and that you know I'm not 'A' yet you're going to invade my phone again?!

"At this point, Emma. I can't trust anyone." Jay admitted, feeing just as awful about it, "But I wanna trust you, so I gotta see." he grabbed her phone.

"Jay!"

He looked at it, turning from her when she went to grab it and after he read it, she did so, as he went into shock.

"It's nobody." she snapped, putting the phone down by her side and glared at him.

He glared back, "Nobody?" he tested once more.

Emma snapped at him again, "Why do you think I have something to hide!?"

"Do you?" Jay felt a bit hurt, and betrayed and pointed at her phone, "Sean Camerons texting you and asking why you won't pick up his calls, and that he misses you and can't stop thinking about 'that night'."

Emma's mouth dropped, she didn't think he had time to read the message and not only did he, he knew who it was from.

"Wow." Jay bluntly said, staring in awe at her, "You must of really had a good summer." he turned his back, going to leave.

"It's none of your business."

He whipped around, anger in his eyes and walked back to her and she sucked in a scared breath, "When I kissed you, you kissed me back" Jay reminder her.

Emma looked away, going a little red and slowly looked back at him.

"In some twisted good way, you feel- or felt, something back towards me" he insisted, or hoped, and eyed her closely, "so what is Sean doing, texting you? What'd you do with him 'that night'"

They both eyed another down, rather madly, and Emma challenged him back, "How about you tell me first who 'A' is and I'll tell you about Sean?"

Jay looked a bit taken back. No. He couldn't. But fuck he wanted to badly to know if Sean had his hands on Emma.

"Sick of this." sneered Jay, going to leave again.

"Yea well, me too." muttered Emma, sitting back down on her bed and he turned, walking back to her. Her eyes widened, thinking he was going to yell again as he came up face to face with her but he just grabbed her chin and leaned her up as he leaned down, kissing her hard and deep, sucking on her lower lip then top and slowly slid his tounge in, dancing his upon hers and she leaned back, letting him crawl over on top and she moaned into the kiss.

What was this feeling Jay Hogart had over her?

Jay sighed happily between the kiss, his hands swaying up her toned hips, stopping just before her ribs and her shirt raised a little.

Emma pulled away, breathless and heart going mad. She stared up at him, shocked. He couldn't believe it either and got up and off of her. She sat up slowly, looking down and trying to hide her blush and she fixed her shirt back down.

Jay coughed lightly and looked away, "Just.." he couldn't look at her as he spoke, "Let me know if 'A' ever texts you.. and in the mean time, stay away from me."

Emma's mouth fell, watching him go to her window and open it and she threw her arms out, standing up, "Why do you keep kissing me then telling me to stay away?"

Jay smirked, turning back. She had a good point, "Maybe it's hard for me to stay away from you." he seemed to flirt, cursing at himself but couldn't stop himself. Damn.. she looked really sexy in her short shorts.

"Why do we have to be apart at all?" she asked honestly, tilting her head a bit and he softened.

"Cause 'A' isn't someone to mess with, trust me." he said, glancing down and back at her firmly.

"And he/she is for some reason, threatening to you?" Emma asked, still not believing Jay could be afraid of someone.

Jay nodded.

"And you think their coming after you? And they'd come after me, if I was around you.." she drifted off and he kept nodding slowly, a smirk coming upon his face.

"Oh that's right." Jay said teasingly, looking her over like it was an amazing thing, "You're smart."

Emma smiled, rolling her eyes and looked down blushing. When she looked up, he was gone. Woah. Batman much? Emma walked over, and shut the window.

Emma sighed, sitting on her bed and grabbed her phone. She glanced back at the window where Jay left and finally texting Sean back.

Sean, Im srry. I think I'm falling for some1 else and that night was just a hard night for me because of that someone. I'll always love you as a friend tho. TTYL.

Emma swallowed hard, not believing she finally admitted it to someone. She was falling in love with Jay Hogart..

She glanced at the book Manny wanted her to ready, boys r from mars, women r from venus, and she laughed slightly, picking it up and leaned back on her bed, reading it. It did seem like Jay was from a different planet anyways...

This time don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
