February went by as quick as a breeze. Their club gained more members and the agents were still in town.
FCotP had met the month of March. There would be another walkout in St. Patrick's Day. The world may be ruled by China, but they let the states keep traditional celebrations.
March would be a whirlwind. For the lovers had yet to know the snake. It was the second Saturday of March when it all went down. Emma's old best friends were obviously involved as they are terrible people.
On that Saturday, Emma and Jose were on their way to Clownous Café for a leadership meeting of FCotP, or that was their cover at least.
"It's so nice to get away for a minute," said Jose as he pulled Emma's seat out and pushed her back in as she sat down.
"It really is. Imagine years from now, all the people who might have some type of change from FCotP," replied Emma.
"What do you want to drink Em?" asked Jose.
Clownous had the best hot chocolate and the best Lemonade. The lemonade was only seasonal, because they made it fresh every day, so Emma ordered the lemonade and Jose did too.
They got their drinks and continued the meeting. "You ever doubt this Jose? The website and FCotP, or meeting me?"
"Emma, why on earth would you think that?" said Jose replying to a question with a question.
Thinking for a second, Emma said, "because what if we don't change anything, what if you get thrown in prison and I get sent to the center like my mom?"
"But that's not going to happen, I haven't regretted anything because being with you makes me feel like Jessica's going to be okay, that she'll have the sister she always wanted. And your brothers will be my brothers one day. And Hope can have human sisters and brothers."
Emma settled down, she knew they shouldn't worry as long as no one knew. All the club members had a special interview and were all trustworthy enough. No one would rat them out from FCotP.
They finished their meeting and made it around the corner to the back alleyway. The alley was the quickest way to Jose's house.
Being high schoolers and having fun, Jose wanted to give Emma a kiss, "Hey Em," he walked to the side of the building. "You have a little cupcake in your face."
"But I didn't eat anything from Clownous," said Emma.
"Maybe," said Jose as he kissed her in the alley, tenderly.
Meanwhile... Julie and Kyle were headed to Clownous. They passed by the alleyway. But of course, any curious human would look down an alley.
"Kyle!" whispered Julie. "Look," she said from the side of the building pointing down towards them, "it's Jose and Emma!"
Back with Emma, Jose didn't know they've been spotted. They came up for air. Emma said, "you can tell me I ate cupcakes anytime." To that, Jose agreed.
Julie canceled her date with Kyle and hurried home.
When Julie reached her house, she called the same company that Zoey Cole called years ago on Emma's parents. The Jones family would be through another case of daughters going against the law.
Emma was right, the club members wouldn't rat them out. Later that night, Emma was relaxing at home with Hope, after an evening at Jose's. Jose was at home watching a movie with Jessica. Their best friends were all at Roxy's house. David was with his girlfriend, Roxy's sister, Madeline. Sweetener was quite. But Julie was about to shake the town.
The agents were still in town. Julie was directed to their hotline. Agent Orangei and Agent Smithnet accepted the call.
"Hello?" said Julie.
"Agent Orangei and Smithnet, here. How can we help you?" answered Orangei.
"Well agents, I'm Julie. I have some compelling evidence to who held the walkouts. Plus, that's not the only they are guilty of."
"They? There's more than one, Julie?" asked Smithnet.
"Yes sir. They're high school students. They attend Universal with me. Would you like the names?" asked the villainous Julie.
Smithnet looked to Orangei before answering, shaking their heads they replied simultaneously to Julie, "yes!"
She was the true Cruela DeVil. "Get a pen and paper agents, Emma Jones and Jose Fuller are the people you want."
Orangei replied a thank you to Julie as Smithnet wrote the names down. They ended the called. Julie smiled devilously.
The town was still calm. The agents searched the names in their database. They knew everything about Emma's parents. Thinking that illegitimates are always like their parents and never listen. The found out about Jose's family. Not many secrets there, expect how Jose's father had another kid the Fuller family didn't know about.
The first Fuller kid was Jose's older sister. Francesca Fuller. She was an illegitimate like Emma, which is why Jose's parents didn't care much for kids like that. From a three way of Jose's parents during their first year of marriage, the other woman was pregnant by his father. Long story short, Jose has 2 sisters.
The agents knew how to shake the town. They'd have someone pick up Francesca and bring her to Sweetener. Orangei wanted to shake the Fuller family before taking away their son. Francesca was only a few towns over and was in Sweetener within the hour.
As for Emma, they'd borrow her mother from rehab. The agents were cruel, like Julie.
All their plans were set. They had Stacy and Francesca. They loaded cars and drove to Jose's and Emma's homes.
