As I jumped out of the car I quickly looked around for Eli.
I sighed, not seeing him and walked up the steps, discontentedly.
As I walked into Degrassi, I was suddenly stopped by a long line of students.
What was going on?
I looked past the students, and saw there was a scanner.
Like the things you walk through at airports.
And a big guy, who was telling people to take off there shoes.
What the heck!
"Clare!" a voice yelled, and I turned around.
It was Ally...
but what in the world was she wearing?
I looked at her confused, she was wearing khaki pants and a blue collared polo with a Degrassi logo in the corner.
"Ally, whats going on?" I said, as she hugged me.
She soon let go, and stared at me with a serious look on her face,
"Degrassi has uniforms now. I'm ready to kill someone."
"And whats with the security check point before you walk in the door?" I said, looking at the line in front of us.
"Yeah, Degrassi has turned into LAX. Simpson is paranoid since the school board has been on his back since Vegas Night. So they made some changes."
I sighed, shocked.
Degrasi had uniforms now?
Well I guess it could be worse... Plus I wore a uniform for like 3 years...
"So how was you're break?" she said with a smile, breaking the silence.
"Um... alright," I said smiling.
"Did you and Eli ever go on that official date? Me and Drew did so much,"
My face fell... Now I was jealous.
"No, last time I talked to him was on Vegas Night,"
Ally's eyes went wide, "Seriously? In thought you guys were in love or something..."
"Yeah, I thought so too," I said glumly.
"Keep moving!" a loud voice said, and we both looked up.
"Ugh, have fun... oh and when you go to the office to get you're uniform get the skirt, I'm sure it looks way better then these pants, ew." Ally said, and made a face.
I faked a smile, "Will do, see you later?"
"Yeah," Ally grinned, and walked off, leaving me in the endless line.
After I had gotten out of the security line, I went to the office and picked up a uniform.
We were going to have to pay later for them, and we would be getting a form on ordering more options. Yay.
As I was changing in the bathroom, before first period started I ran into Jenna.
"Ugh, could this look worse on me?" she sulked, and stared at herself in the mirror.
"Hi Jenna," I said shyly, and she looked at me,
"Oh Hi Clare..."
I had to stare at her stomach... she looked very pregnant now. Wow.
"How are you?" I asked, as I stared at myslef in the mirror.
I didn't look so hot in this uniform.
My old uniform was a step up from this.
"I've been better, how about yourself?"
"I'm just shocked, I can't believe we have to wear these things," I said and looked down at my wardrobe.
"I know, right? I'm just about ready to stage a rebellion against them."
I had to laugh... but she had a good point.
Just then the warning bell rang.
"Well I got to go, see you later?" I said, smiling at her.
"Yeah," she sighed, with a smile and I walked out of the bathroom.
During passing period I was organizing my locker when I got an unexpected surprise.
"Hello Clare fancy seeing you here."
I froze, as my heart started to race.
Was it Eli? It had to be Eli! Oh my gosh.. what should I say? And why was i so nervous?
I slowly turned around, then blinked as I saw who was standing there.
Eli Goldsworthy was standing in front of me, grinning. He looked the same as usual, his hair was the same... and the expression on his face was the same. he was even wearing the necklace he always wore.
But...he was wearing a school uniform too. That was a site. I had to say I was going to miss his jeans... and his jackets.
"Hi," I finally said, grinning at him.
His eyes were locked with mine.
"I missed you," I finally said, and he drew closer to me,
"I missed you to, break was way too long. I'm sorry I didn't call..."
"Well, its alright... I'm talking to you now," I joked, and stared into his eyes.
Wow, his eyes were so pretty.
"Yeah, but I'd rather do this..." he said, and put his hand on my cheek, and kissed me deeply.
I blushed, after a few seconds as he drew back.
"So... how was you're break?" I said, smiling. Still trying to catch my breath. How I had missed kissing him.
"It was...
boring," he said flatly, but his eyes were still sparkling.
"Me too, so why didn't you return my calls again?"
He sighed, and put his arm around me,
"Because I'm a jerk... and I was busy, I got a job,"
"You did?" I said, raising my eyebrows.
"Yep... at a car place, its only a few blocks away from here actually."
"Awesome," I said, trying to be happy for him, but how could I be? If he was working he wouldn't have time to spend with me.
"Yeah, but we have to go to the Dot after school... I have so much to talk to you about. and can you believe these uniforms?" he said, looking down, making a disgusted face.
I laughed, and shut my locker, and he dropped his arm.
"I know.. I have to say I miss the old you,"
He rolled his eyes as I stared at him.
"Wait.. are you saying I don't look hot in these pants?"
I laughed, "You look alright,"
"Just alright? Okay Edwards you have officially offended me." he said making a sad face.
I sighed, as he leaned against my locker.
"I'm sorry."
He just smirked, obviously not really offended, and I looked up, as I saw a familiar face running towards us.
"Hey guys!"
"Adam!" I smiled, and quickly hugged him. Adam looked the same as usual- but his bangs had gotten a little longer.
Adam grinned at me, as I let go, and then looked at Eli.
"So.. how have you been man?"
"Since we hung out yesterday.. I'm fine." he joked, and my eyes narrowed.
So Adam had hung out with Eli more then I had. What was going on?
I just smiled, as they started talking, but secretly I was very annoyed.
