Nostalgic For Love

"Get Back, Back, Back To Where We Lasted, Just Like I Imagine.

I Could Never Feel This Way.

So Get Back, Back, Back To The Disaster,

My Heart's Beating Faster

Holding Onto To Feel The Same,"--Sugarcult, 'Memory'

The halls of Degrassi began to fill with juniors and seniors that took the building by swarm. Familiar faces passed Cassie as she raced for her locker on the other side of the building. It was just her luck that her locker was directly next to Technology, which was her first period class. She smiled as she ran, breathing in the same air that Ellie Nash had once breathed. Cassie made her way to the locker numbered, '674' before fiddling with the combination. Within seconds, Cassie was able to collect all of her books with a sense of relief. For once, she was able to get to school on time, not have a run-in with Mrs. Hatzilakos, and she had even gotten the homework done for Mr. Simpson's class. She felt a sense of pride fill her stomach and with that, she slammed her locker only to have a certain someone leaning against the very next locker.

"Ah. Spinner. And to think, this morning was actually going great until I had to see your face," It's such a lie...why do you do this to the poor kid? Spinner grinned, running his hands through his hair.

"Oh, don't pretend like you don't love me," The older boy turned on his heel, following Cassie down the hall that was filled with blue and yellow, "So, Jay was telling me the other day about when you both were nine and he--" Cassie spun around, hair flying.

"What?!" She screeched, making Spinner laugh heartily.

"Oh yes. Jason Hogart is a story teller, he is...so, if you would, the Valentine's Dance is only a few weeks away..." The two continued to walk until Spinner had ended his sentence. That was when Cassie bit her lip and turned on her heel, glaring at the taller boy infront of her. She folded her arms across her well-defined chest and began to burn him with her eyes.

"So you're going to blackmail me into going to the dance with you? Gavin Reginald, this is a sad moment in the history of your existence, is it not? Having to blackmail me into going out with you...pitiful..." Even though Cassie's brain was telling her to jump into his arms and kiss his perfectly-sculpted face, she resisted the urge when the perfect imaged flashed before her eyes. Cassie smiled brightly, bopping Spinner's nose playfully.

"Sorry, hun. I've got another hotty on my mind right now. Give me a call when you grow up, though, okay?" She sang sweetly before running off into a crowd of juniors, desperatly hoping that rejecting Spinner would win her the chance at Ellie...

"Ellinor! Ellie! Nassshhh!" Cassie called out to the red-head who was briskly walking to gym. She turned, giving a confused expression at first before her frown turned into a grin. She gave a cute little wave at the panting girl who was racing towards her.

"Ellie! I'm glad I caught up to you before you got to gym!" Cassie said breathily. Her cheeks were tinted red from her jog, making Ellie giggle. Her outfit almost killed Cassie, her mini skirt only reaching the mid-part of her thigh, her lacy black top showing off her curves, and her red hair cascaded down her shoulders. She looked like an angel...

"Yeah...? Why, what's up?" Cassie caught her breath before replying.

"I have this really awesome idea for a mural I want to paint on the side of The Dot,"

"Really? What exactly were you thinking?"

"I was thinking...color. Lots of color. And I want it symbolize the peace that we forget about in our everday lives that we can only discover inside our friends and the ones we love," The deeper meaning of the whole thing was simple: I love you, Ellie Nash. But that was something so deep, even Ellie couldn't see it.

"Wow...that is...wow. How'd you come up with something so...deep and mysterious?" Ellie wiggled her eyebrows. Cassie giggled.

"Oh, you know. I get by with a little help from my friends," Ellie made a face.

"The Beatles?"

"You know it."

"You have got to be the coolest person this side of Ontario..." The bell gave out a screechy-ring, "I've gotta go...but, I'll see you in Simpson's class, okay?" The redhead began to make her way towards the gym. Cassie nodded and waved.

"See you later...! ...I love you..." But Ellie never got to hear the last part...
