Anneliese Martin was new at Degrassi. She was hot, in the guys mind. Cool
to the girls.
Anneliese walked in through the doors of Degrassi. Replacing a backpack was a guitar in a soft case. Eyes immediately turned onto her. Maybe it was her chunky black boots hitting the floor. Or maybe because she was humming her favorite song. But Anneliese knew why, it was because she was different. Looking around she realized everybody was different. Not like her old school filled with preps. Anneliese re adjusted her bag on her shoulder, and her guitar on her back before heading to the office.
Grabbing her schedule from a preppy girl with glasses she headed into the hall to find her locker. She looked at each brightly painted locker, searching for number 213. Finally finding it she fiddled with the lock before hitting it open. She looked over to see a guy with dark curly hair staring at her.
"Take a picture it'll last longer." Anneliese said turning around to find her homeroom.
Then she watched the guy rush past her obviously embarrassed. Anneliese found her homeroom a few minutes after the bell rang. She shuffled her way into class, the buckles on her boots hitting each other. Again all eyes were on her.
"Sorry, I'm new." Anneliese apologized reading the teacher's expression.
"Fine, take your seat. But learn your way around."
Anneliese made her way to the back of the room and sat down. A girl with short, brown hair like hers sat next to her.
"Hi I'm Ashley." The girl said.
"I'm Anneliese." Anneliese replied fumbling in her bag to find a piece of gum.
Ashley was about to say something when a loud voice over powered the room. It was Mr. Raditch the principal on the intercom.
"Degrassi Students! AS most of you should know it is almost time for winter break. We are adding a new activity this year. Any of you that would like to go on the ski trip over break, you need to sign up in the office."
"What's the ski trip?" Anneliese asked leaning over.
"Oh it is an extra curricular activity. If you want to get away from your parents for two weeks over Christmas and New Years, it is the perfect option." Ashley explained.
"Are you going?"
"Yea almost everybody is." Ashley replied before turning to the computer in front of her.
After class Anneliese made her way to the office to sign up for the ski trip. Again she saw the guy with the dark curly hair. But this time he wasn't alone he was talking to a guy with blonde hair who was carrying drumsticks. This time she notice the guy was carrying a guitar case just like she was. Anneliese walked over to him.
"So do you guys play them or just carry them around to look cool?" Anneliese asked.
"We play." The blonde haired guy responded.
"SO do you two have names?" Anneliese asked.
"I'm Spinner." The blonde replied looking over at the curly haired guy whose mouth was open.
"And um this is Craig." Spinner said hitting Craig on the shoulder.
"Well I'm Anneliese maybe I'll see you around." Anneliese said turning around, signing up and then leaving.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A few days passed and it was the day before the ski trip. Anneliese was up in her room packing when her cell phone rang.
"Hello?" Anneliese answered.
"Hey Anneli it's Ashley."
"Oh hey, wassup?"
"Nothing I was just wondering if you like Craig?" Ashley asked.
Anneliese remember back to Craig; dark curly hair plays guitar her type of guy.
"Um why do you ask?"
"No reason just wondering. See Craig and me we kind of have a past. But it's nothing just forget I said anything."
"Okay." Anneliese said.
"Well got to go see you at the bus tomorrow." Ashley said hanging up.
Anneliese continued on packing, and then got into bed early listening to her ipod in bed.
The next morning she got up early, and loaded all of her stuff into the car. Then she ate breakfast with her parents, which was there idea. And Anneliese agreed since she was going away for Christmas. Once at the bus, she found a seat next to Ashley. Hours passed before they reached a small town they said was right around Montreal. Anneliese didn't think it looked like it was real close to Montreal. But it's not like Anneliese really knew what Montreal looked like being from the states and all. They UN loaded all of the bags and supplies from the bus before dividing up into groups, and cabins.
Anneliese, Ashley, Ellie, Paige, and Terri made their way to cabin 13. Paige of course rushed in to find what she called the perfect bed, saying she needed her beauty sleep. Anneliese was just happy to be away from home, she didn't care if she slept on the floor. As long as it wasn't in her room, at her house, with her fathers yelling, and her mothers late night cries. See Anneliese's dad was under a lot of stress with his new job, it didn't really seem to be going his way. But after all this is why they left the states, and they couldn't just turn around and go back. Anneliese's dad seemed to take all of his anger built up from a long days work on her mom when he got home. Although it was never taken out on Anneliese. Mainly because she knew how to avoid it. She would spend most of her time in her room, except for at dinner, which was one time they didn't talk much.
Anneliese and Ashley arranged all of their stuff in one closet, since all of Paige's stuff took up two before heading out into town. First they headed to the ski shop to rent ski's and boots. That's when they met up with Craig and Spinner.
"Hey Craig, hey Spinner." Anneliese greeted as the two girls walked in.
"Anneli, Ash, what ski group are you in?" Spinner asked.
"Were in the advanced group, how about the two of you?" Anneliese asked.
"Well see I am an advanced skier but Spinner here had to beg his way into that group." Craig explained.
"This should be fun to watch." Ashley said sitting down to try on a new pair of boots.
"Ha ha." Spinner said sarcastically.
"Anneliese are you renting anything?" Craig asked.
"No I lived in Aspen before I moved, so I brought all of my ski stuff with me." Anneliese answered.
"Wow we really do have an expert among us." Spinner said sitting down next to Ash also trying to try on a pair of boots.
"Well just see how good she is." Craig said turning to leave the shop.
"Wait man! I thought you were going to give me a signal if you were going to give an exit line. Don't just leave me, signal me remember the eye brow raise!" Spinner yelled flipping off the boot to run after Craig.
Anneliese and Ashley looked at each other, rolled their eyes and then started to laugh. After finishing up at the ski shop they headed farther into town to check out what was there. Their first stop was the music store. In the back was a small recording studio. Anneliese pulled her guitar, which was named starburst out from its case. Her and Ashley sat there for an hour singing and playing around with Anneliese's guitar. Soon people started gathering around to watch them sing and play. The girls didn't know it but Spinner and Craig sat in the back of the music store watching.
"Anneliese is really something isn't she?" Craig asked turning his head to look at Spinner, but keeping one eye on Anneliese.
"Definitely." Spinner agreed.
"Hey hands off you have Paige. I am the single one."
"I know I have Paige but I can still think she is hot."
"Yea well I have more in common with her any way."
"Dude chill out, I am not trying to date her or anything I am just saying she's hot." Spinner said turning back to watch Anneliese, and Ashley.
Craig stared deep into her eyes as she played. He realized she used the same passion as when he played.
"So Craig not thinking about Ashley or Manny at all. That's a big step for you." Spinner said as the girls finished their song.
"Don't remind me, they are both in the advanced skier group." Craig replied.
"Well maybe you should just learn to suck like me." Spinner joked.
"Not funny, I am trying to come up with a plan here."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Anneliese and Ashley were on there way back to the cabin when they almost bumped right into Manny and Emma.
"Hi Manny, Hi Emma." Anneliese greeted, Ashley kept silent.
"Hi Anneliese." Emma replied.
Manny and Ashley stood there staring at each other. They both were not over this Craig thing even though it had been a year. And now there was no way they would ever get along.
"Well we should get going, lots of un packing to do." Anneliese said grabbing Ashley's arm to leave.
"Nice stare out contest, are you ever going to tell me what happened between the two of you?" Anneliese asked once they were back in their cabin.
"I will but not right now, just know that it is something big, and it involves me, Manny, and Craig."
"Well I know it involves the three of you. And I know you two used to date. So let me guess he cheated on you with Manny. Then lied to both of you about it. Until you found out and she dumped him for his lies."
"How did you know?" Ashley asked.
"Hun were sharing a cabin with Paige. Did you really think she could keep it a secret long? Oh crap I said Hun I really am turning into Paige."
"Let's just get ready to go out to dinner tonight." Ashley suggested moving over to the closet.
Anneliese loved the freedom she got here. They could go and do anything they wanted too. Teachers were just there in case you needed help. Anneliese had never had this much freedom before.
Ashley and Anneliese made there way into town to find a restaurant. They stopped at a pizza place right in the center of town. And it looks like every one else had decided to go there too. Ashley and Anneliese made there way over to a booth. Soon Terri, Paige, Ellie, and Hazel joined them. By the end of the night Craig, Spinner, and Jimmy had pulled up chairs at their table.
The group walked out of the restaurant.
"I have a great idea!" Anneliese said.
"What?" Ashley asked.
"Hello Karaoke." Anneliese replied.
"Great idea, we could have a PMS reunion." Paige suggested.
"Wait rewind, what the hell is PMS?" Anneliese asked.
Ashley, Paige, and Terri moved together and all said.
"We are PMS."
"Nice name, but let's save the PMS reunion for later." Hazel said.
"No fun." Paige said.
"Let's just go sing, how about that?" Spinner said.
They all headed into the karaoke bar. Anneliese and Ashley went up first.
Soon the music started blaring and, the words started appearing on the screen. By the time they were done everyone in the crowd was standing and cheering. Craig couldn't take his eyes off of Anneliese.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It seems like every one loves Anneliese especially the guys. And mainly Craig but will some other guys get in the way? Read and Review.
Tell me what you think; I have some major ideas for this story so I should get the next chapter out soon.
