This is the first fan fic that I have written since my Dawson's Creek days. This chapter is kinda short, but this is only an intro. I have many ideas of where to go with this. More reviews, the more I write.
"Sean, can you pass me the 10mm wrench?" I called out from beneath the car.
"Sure, but why didn't you get it before you went down there? Sean said as he handed me the wrench.
"I grabbed the wrong one. Leave me alone. I can't always be perfect." He laughed as he went back to doing what he was doing.
Sean Cameron opened his own garage right outside of Toronto. Since it opened, I, Alex Nunez, have been working with Sean and I am also part owner of the garage. I was saving up money working odd jobs for something special. When Sean brought up opening the garage, I was ready to invest. Since I hung out with Jay and Sean all the time, I finally opened myself up to cars and found something I was passionate about, other than being a bad ass. I decided to go to the local trade school and I was certified as an auto mechanic. I really enjoy doing it. There is just something I find great about working with my hands.
"Where is Jay?" Sean asked me.
"I don't know. I have been under this car all afternoon, but now I am finished." I said, scooting out from under the car.
"Oh, well. I guess he already went home."
"And as soon as I wash up, I will be heading home myself. It's been a long day. "
"Alright, Alex. I am going to finish this up and I am leaving, too. I will see you later."
"Night, Sean."
"Night."
I hopped into my car and drove to my cozy one bedroom apartment just a few minutes from the garage. It isn't very much, but it is mine. For once in my life, I can actually sleep at night. I don't have to hear the fights between my mom and Chad every night. I really don't talk to them much anymore. I feel like I am better off without the extra drama. Running a garage and my own life, I have enough drama. I walked into my apartment with a stack of mail. I sat the mail down on the table and I checked the answering maching. No messages.
"Gee. Gone all day and no messages. I have no life." Alex said to herself. "It's sad. It's Friday night and I have no date. Let's see who is asking for my money. Bill, bill, trash… what is this? A letter from Degrassi." I opened the letter and was shocked to find out what it was about.
"You are invited to attend the five year reunion of Degrassi's Class of 2006."
Five years? Has it really been five years? I guess it had been. I haven't really thought about Degrassi since I graduated. After I had my diploma in my hand, Degrassi was a part of my life that was over and I had to figure out alot of things afterwards. Now that I think about it, there are many things that I miss. I wonder how the gang is doing. Marco, Ellie, Hazel and Paige. I stopped mid-thought. Paige. The only thing that made me want to graduate. I haven't thought about her in a long time. I wonder how she is doing.
