Emily raked her hands through Lucky's hair as she deepened the kiss between them.

The door opened and the man, there unknown captor stepped in and stayed in the shadows. "I thought you two weren't going to kiss." He said angrily.

Emily and Lucky broke apart, both embarrassed by what had just happened.

The man clapped his hands and another set of lights came on. When Emily saw his face she gasped and leaned against Lucky as he heart pounded. "Your.... Your.... your... your... your...your... Dead..." She said through gasps of breath.

"Well, I'm not! Lucky's supposed to be dead to. A fire right? Though no one invited me to my own cousin's funeral. So you see the two of you are here for revenge. You see Emily, all those afternoon's in the Student Center, you'd be there with Elizabeth and that Juan guy. I would stare at you. Wishing you would talk to me, recognize that I existed. Realize how much I love you."

"Sly? What are you talking about?" Lucky asked.

"Yeah, Sly the forgotten Teen. You were out catching blackmailers, and having fun. I was alone writing music. You got to go to the Nurse's ball every year, I was lucky if I heard what happened. Then graduation came and it was time to fake my death. The tragedy of it all. Emily I heard you even cried."

"I did cry, you wouldn't talk to me in high school. You were one of my best friends Sly. But you were to into the music." Emily said as she tried to calm down.

"I still don't know why were here." Lucky said, staying calm under the pressure.

"Well, my two best friends who only came around when they needed me, are being thrown together and look it's already worked you've just kissed. Emily how would Juan feel about that?"

"I don't Care how Juan feels. I hate him." Emily said, taken back by the statement.

"Oh, this getting good," said Sly, "better then Dawson's Creek."

"Shut up!" Both Lucky and Emily yelled.

"Be nice, the nicer you are the sooner you'll get out of here." Sly said as he walked to the door.

Sly left and Emily turned to Lucky. "That kiss was nothing more then just part of the um, tension in here." If she could get him to believe that then she was safe and he would never know she was in love with him.

"Maybe, or maybe I've been thinking about doing that for a long time Emily." Lucky told her.

"What?" She asked him shocked.

"I've wanted to kiss you for a while. I fell out of love with Elizabeth and in love with you."

"Huh?" Emily murmured speechless. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. "Did you just say what I think you said?"

"Depends on what you think I said."

"Did you just say that your in love with me?"

"Yes, I did. It's true Emily, I'm in love with you. That's why I came back, to stop you from marrying Juan." He confessed.

"I wasn't going to marry him. Last night I found a picture of you, me, and Sly. I realized something then."

"What did you realize?"

Before Emily could say anything Sly came back in. "Enough of the revelations of feelings for now. It's time for you two to eat. Come-on, I won't poison you -- Unless I have to."
