Moments of Clarity, Moments of Insanity
Summary- Bay and Emmett thinking about 1st meeting through season finale-ongoing. Some Daphne also(Mostly interacting with Emmett)
A/N Since Bay and Emmett really don't interact a lot the first several episodes, I am doing chapter 1 as eps 1-2. It will be short since they only see each other at the end of the first episode and briefly in the second. As they interact more the chapters will be longer. Hope you like! Review, review, review!

Chapter 1 episode 1 and 2
The first time I saw her, I was interested. She was beautiful and put together in all the right places. Her black hair shone in the sun. I didn't mean to stare. She just drew me in like a moth to a flame.
"Who's that?" I ask Daphne.
"Me….in another life," is her response.
Hesitating to press for more, I nodded. Looking at her one more time, we drove away. I would learn her name eventually.
The first time I saw him, I was interested. He was handsome and damn that motorcycle was hot. I never really cared for guys on motorcycles, but I changed my mind once I saw him. This must be Emmett, the friend Daphne is always going on and on about. I see him staring and return his stare.
He says something to Daphne while still watching me for a moment.
"Me….in another life," I hear her say. So he was asking about me. The thought made me smile.
Looking at me one more time, he smiles and they drove away.
The next time I see her, I am again picking up Daphne. It's a little more out of my way now, but I don't care. They all come outside. John, I know. The woman is obviously his wife, Daphne's mom. They look a lot alike. Toby, the moron who dissed me unintentionally the other day, and her. I was almost giddy. Now I would learn her name.
I make a quip about trading a rookie Mark McQuire for John's card. Actually, I'm just killing time waiting for the introduction I wanted.
Finally, Daphne says, "This is Bay." I smile and wave. She smiles and waves back. Bay, it fits her. I find myself staring again. What is it about her that draws me to her?
The next time I see him, he is again picking Daphne up for school. Can't Regina take her? My parents are freaking out about the whole motorcycle thing. Wonder what they would say if I said I wanted to take a spin with him? We all troop outside to officially meet Emmett. Daphne isn't sure how to introduce us to him. Finally, Dad steps up, to dispel the awkwardness. Emmett tells about trading a rookie Mark McQuire card for Dad's card when he was younger. Dad puffed up like a peacock.
"You get an autographed picture, my friend," Dad tells him.
"I happen to have one in my wallet, right here!" Toby and I quip. I forgot for a second that Emmett couldn't hear us.
Finally, Daphne introduces me to him. He smiles and waves. I smile and wave back. Then I see him stare at me again. That boy had a stare that could melt butter.
Mom asked how long they had been together. Both of them said, "No, just friends."
That made me happy.
A few nights later, I see him bring home Daphne late. They don't see me, though. They hug and he drives away. I find myself a little jealous. I wish someone was that good to me.
