"The best and most beautiful things in the world can not be seen, nor touched but are felt in the heart."

This is my first fanfic ever, so please excuse my poorness in writing.

Chapter One;; Back of the Bus

JT Yorke quickly got on the bus, his bookbag not zipped up, books in hand. He had apparently been in a rush. JT looked around the bus, hoping Manny was on, but soon found out that him and Liberty were the only one's on. He walked to his usual seat-shared with his best friend, Toby-the seat infront of Liberty's. JT tried to put the rest of his books into his backpack. This resulted to everything falling out on to the floor. Liberty quickly realized this, and closed her laptop that she had recently bought with her babysitting money. She began picking up his books, struggling to get each one. Liberty tapped JT on the shoulder, as he sighed and turned around. "Look, Liberty, NO, I do NOT need help with schoolwork." He said, growling. "Fine, then just pick up these books by yourself." Liberty snapped back, and dropped his books on the floor. She turned her laptop back on, trying to complete a future Grapevine issue. JT watched her do so, angry as well. He made a grunting noise, and picked up his books.

As minutes passed, more Degrassi students piled up on the bus. One of those students was Manny 'Manuella' Santos. She was, of course, wearing her usual exposing clothes. As Manny got on to the bus, Liberty gave her a cold look. Manny ignored her, and walked to her seat across from JT. Manny bit her lip, and stared into space. She quickly smirked at Liberty. Liberty returned the 'fake' smile as she watched Manny. "She's up to something, I can tell." She thought to herself. Manny slid over to JT, still smiling. JT didn't notice Manny's presence until she leaned her head against his shoulder. JT glanced from the magazine he was holding, to Manny. "Hey," Manny said to JT, seeming very comfortable in the position. "Oh, God, she makes 'Hey,' seem sexy." JT thought outloud. He then realized what he had just said. He glanced around, hoping Manny hadn't heard him. Manny, of course, heard him, and was pretending she didn't, though. "So..," Manny said, glancing at the magazine infront of her. "Nice mag you got there." JT slightly smiled. "Thanks." he said. Manny nodded. "Anytime."

Meanwhile, Liberty was silently peeking at them, listening in on their conversation. She leaned back in her seat. Oh, goodness, was she about to cry? The man of her dreams was clearly flirting with the school slut! Liberty turned back to her laptop, IMing animechick001;;

grapevinedegras: How dare she!

animechick001: She, as in Manny?

grapevinedegras: Yes! She's a complete player! I HATE her!

animechick001: Uh, yeah, I kind of noticed that.

grapevinedegras: Anywho, I better get back to their conversation. I'll keep you posted! Farewell.

animechick001: Bye.

grapevinedegras has logged off.

Liberty shut off her laptop. She was in complete shock. "How could JT sink that low?" Liberty thought outloud. "How could I what?" JT asked her. Liberty's eyes widened. There was JT, staring at her. And Manny at his side, as well. Manny smirked widely. They had heard Liberty, and wanted to know why she was talking about J.T. "How could you..," Liberty said, thinking hard. "wear that same shirt twice..?" She finished. Manny rolled her eyes, and went back to her seat. JT, however, responded differently. "This," he said, pointing at his shirt, "is new." Liberty glanced at his shirt. "I see that." Liberty replied, biting her lip.

That's the end of Chaper One! Sorry it's so short!

Will Manny and JT pair up?

How will Liberty handle this?
