Emily had gotten Juan all the way to Kelly's before he started to protest, "What the Hell are you doing? Would you just- could you stop?!" Emily wasn't even listening to Juan, for a while she even forgot she was dragging him along. 'I just have to get away from Nikolas, just get to Kelly's and everything will be okay' She told herself. She finally reached Kelly's and decided it would be safer to go around the back, since she wasn't 'technically' living there. Normally she would sneak in the back and up the stairs unnoticed. Whenever the fighting would get so unbearable even cranking her stereo up an extra 30 decibels didn't help, she would come here. She stayed in Hannah's old room, sometimes she would just stay here and hope to have some peace and quiet she can't get anywhere else, and sometimes, she would get high.
Juan had no idea what was happening, one minute he was bickering with this little rich snob and the next she was dragging him down the docks and into some weird little diner. Although he really didn't mind being dragged upstairs by a beautiful woman, he still would like to know why. He knew this girl was running away from something, more likely, someone. He saw that guy in the dark clothes get off the boat coming from that spooky island, and right afterwards this crazy woman was dragging him down the docks, into a dinner, and now…into a room.
Emily pushed Juan into the room and quickly locked the door. Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief as she rested her forehead against the door. "OK, NOW can you tell me what the hell that was about?"…'And the relief is over.' Emily turned to look at Juan who didn't seem all that angry with her. She stared at him for a while, taking in his overall appearance, part of her was telling her what a stupid idea it was to drag this guy into a bedroom, yet, the other part of her was telling her that he could trust him.
Juan tried to sound angry, or at least threatening, but it didn't seem to work, he was actually happy he was someplace warm Although the way she was looking at him was making him uncomfortable, like she was judging him. "What are you staring at?" When Emily didn't answer he waved a hand in front of her face, "Hellloooo?? Earth to-" It was then that he realized he didn't even know her name.
"Emily, sorry, my names Emily, and you are?"
"Santiago, Juan Santiago"
Emily burst out laughing, she continued giggling as she walked to the bathroom, "Ok, Double 0 Seven, I'll be back in a minute." Emily cointinued to the bathroom mumbling to herself, "Santiago, Juan Santiago, ha"
