No POV
Victoria Cecelia Goldsworthy was different. Eli was positive of it. Insane, absent-minded, just…unique. In East Lake High School, Victoria preferred to be called Tori, as when Eli and Tori were learning to talk, it was easier to say Tori. Same with Elijah. It's just simpler, and better. Tori was best friends with Julia Raymond. Julia understood Tori, and knew the usual Goldsworthy routine. Eli and Tori are siblings, Eli being a few months older than Tori. Originally, CeCe was supposed to have twins in October 1994, and Eli came out first. Tori, for some strange reason, stayed until April the next year.
Maybe that's why Tori's crazy, Eli thought. It was embarrassing at first, dating your sister's best friend, but the three of them adapted. Tori was the one that somehow managed to keep Eli and Julia alive, but not for long. On a rainy day, Eli and Julia had a heated argument after Tori found a pregnancy test and found out Julia was pregnant. Julia told Tori that she wants to keep the baby, but felt that Eli was too scary and manipulative. Julia loved Eli to death, and Tori was like a sister to her. If Julia broke up with Eli, would her friendship with Tori end? Julia ignored this thought.
Julia left the Goldsworthy's house in the rain, on her bike, with Eli screaming after her. Tori, stood by the doorway, awestruck. She watched as the car was approaching Julia. As loud as Tori could, she called for her best friend. Though, no sound came from her. Unfortunately, Eli didn't notice the car coming, and stopped cold when he saw the accident. Depression hit Eli, and Tori felt guilty. She wasn't sad that Julia died, which made Tori sad for that reason. CeCe and Bullfrog were crazy worried for their kids, so as the school year came to a close, they decided to relocate the family to Toronto.
First Day Of School
"Tori!" Eli yelled, hitting Tori's door with a baseball bat. "No…5 more hours…" Tori muttered, and Eli sighed. He walked up to her bed, and started tickling her. "No-no-no! Stop it!" Tori screamed, and jumped on top of Eli, sending him to the ground. "Tori! Get off of me!" Eli demanded. "Fine. I'll get ready." Tori moaned. "At last! It's about time you listen." Eli congratulated. As soon as Eli left the room, Tori fell asleep. Eli smirked as he thought he accomplished waking Tori up. About 10 minutes later, Eli stomped up the stairs, with a pitcher with ice cold water mixed with apple sauce. He poured it all over Tori, and she screamed punching and kicking Eli.
After putting on a T-shirt with a pudding cup saying "Wassup Pudding Cup!" with black shorts and blue converse, Tori skipped down the stairs, absent-mindedly and watched Eli go down. He was wearing skinny jeans, black Levi's and a black jacket over a gray shirt. CeCe walked into the kitchen, and put bacon in the microwave. "Bacon!" Tori yelled, grabbing a piece and ate it. "It's not ready yet, idiot." Eli replies and grabs his car keys.
"Eli! Drive Tori to and from school, got it?" CeCe asked, and Eli nodded. He hopped into Morty, waiting for Tori. Tori ran to the car, with a purple backpack with sparkles all over it. "Ready, Eli?" Tori asks, eating a chocolate bar. Eli rolls his eyes, and sighs. "Be good. Last thing we need is you coming home from your first day with detention, referrals and a suspension." Eli orders. "No promises." Tori mutters as she opens the car door at Degrassi. Eli follows, and he looks around. He walks into Degrassi, and stops by the principal's office, with Tori waving at random people saying, "I missed you over the summer!" Eli knocked on the door, and Mr. Simpson came. "Hi Elijah, Victoria!" Mr. Simpson greets, and Tori scoffs hearing her full name. "Eli." Eli replies. "Tori." She adds. "Well then…here are your schedules…have a nice day at Degrassi!" Mr. Simpson greets.
Eli rolls his eyes, and Tori smiles. She hopped up, and went to her locker. Eli looked around, and noticed a girl, who stood out, walking with another girl. "Welcome to Degrassi…" Eli whispers to himself.
Tuesday, At Lunch
"PLEASE! Pretty please take me to The Dot for lunch! I heard this girl tell me that it's awesome!" Tori begs the next day, following Eli to his car for lunch. "No!" Eli yells, brushing Tori away. "Fine…I'll tell Mom." Tori threatens. "She said to and from school. Not to lunch." Eli points out. "I bet you, you don't have anyone to talk to!" Tori replies. "Yet." Eli adds. "Where are you going anyways?" Tori asks, trying to open the locked passenger seat of Morty. "The Dot, moron." Eli answers. "I'll pay you." Tori gives in. "Ok." Eli answers, and drives.
They have some cupcakes, and Eli looked at the time. "Eli, I have some questions." Tori starts. "Go ahead." Eli sighs. "Why doesn't McDonald's sell hotdogs?" Tori asks. "Um…" Eli says. "At a movie theater which arm rest is yours?" She continues. "It depends." Eli sighs. "Why do doctors leave the room when you change? They're going to see you naked anyway." Tori says, and Eli starts laughing.

"Tori, no one really cares about any of this crap." Eli mutters. "I do." Tori whispers. All of a sudden, there's a crack on Eli stops the car. Tori gets out, and see two girls there. Eli reaches for the broken glasses, and hands them to the auburn, curly haired girl, as he saw her wearing them yesterday.
"I think they're dead." Eli jokes, and Tori giggles. The girl giggles. "I-it's ok. I um…don't need them anymore. Got laser surgery." She explains. "You can get lasers put into you by lasers? How does that do with anything?" Tori gasps. "No, laser eye surgery." The girl corrects herself. Eli stared into the girl's eyes, which were blue. "You have pretty eyes." Eli let out. "Thanks." She blushes. "Uh…see you guys around?" She asks. "Guess you will." Eli replies. "Bye!" Tori exclaims, starts the car, and drive off. "Tori!" Eli screams, and runs after her. Eventually, Tori hits a stop sign. "Don't kill me!" Tori screams, and the bell rang. "Shit. Gotta go to class, pick you up later!" Eli replies and runs off. "This year's gonna be great." Tori whispers.
