He didn't want any of that. "So...what...I mean, what do we do? What can we do?" he asked her gently, wondering how they were going to avoid all that or what/if Caylee had any plans.

"Well, we could kinda... stay on the down-lo," she explained with a hint of disdain. She didn't want to hide anything. "We could tell only our closest friends, and... no one else. Let them find out on their own. I mean, I really don't want to hide anything, but I don't want you getting any trouble from anyone."

"Heh, I'll be fine." he assured her, though not even believing himself. "I just don't want people giving you any grief over this. You know- Ari, then me, and yeah. Like you said..."

"Well, we both have common fears, then," she rubbed his hand with hers absently, not really knowing that she was doing it. "The last thing I want to happen is you getting hurt by other people about this."

"I told you, things will be fine with me. I told you- I don't want people giving you shit or calling you names, or anything." he tried to convince her. He was truthfully more concerned about her than himself. Though he was kind of worried about Ari. Unless he really was a jerk and wouldn't even care.

"I can take care of anything like that," she reassured him. "It's you I worry about. That's not going to change no matter what."

"It'll be fine. I think they're all pretty bored of picking on me by now..." he joked lightly, smirking at her ever so slightly. "So you're worrying about nothing. And the down low thing sounds fine, It's not like it was...some big announcement to begin with, right?"

"I guess not..." well, it was to her. Obviously not Emmett. She sighed softly and nuzzled her head gently into her shoulder, getting comfortable for a second.

"I mean we weren't gonna make posters, or anything heh... So yeah, just...screw them, and whatever..." talking about the other kids at school.

"I guess that means no holding hands in the hallways, or kissing, or... anything, really..." okay, now her idea was seeming to be worse and worse to her.

"Oh..." her tone was catching to him and that did seem a bit too much. "Doesn't that count as like...hiding it, though? So I mean...isn't- can't we just like- ...I don't know..."

"If they see us being.. couple-y then they'll know that we're a... couple. Makes sense," she shrugged, trying to act nonchalant. "So... no PDA's. You don't even like PDA's. It'd be fine for you..." unlike Caylee, who was striven on public displays of affection.

"I guess then..." that she was right. "That most definitely be a give-a-way..." he nodded slowly. Emmett fidgeted in his seat lightly with his hands and glanced over at her every now and then with a pathetic smirk.

"We'd be safe, you wouldn't get all uncomfortable. I don't see anything wrong with it," even if she wasn't completely happy with it, Emmett's needs came first, and she knew what would happen if she tried to kiss him in public. He'd get all red and end the kiss quickly and be a... spazz.

Emmett just shrugged, not wanting to agree on that point, but not disagree either. He began to hum quietly to himself and then looked at her with a shy smile. "Sooo...what now...heh...?"
