NO POV

It's Wednesday morning at Degrassi Community High School and Eli Goldsworthy and Adam Torres are at Eli's locker, reading comic books while waiting for their friends, Julia and Jake to arrive.

Eli Goldsworthy is what people around the school call a 'badass'. He never follows the rules, always has detention and he drives a hearse. He intimidates most people and Eli only trusts his small group of friends. Eli will always be found wearing black or gray, nothing else. He was shaggy, black hair and forest green eyes. Most people know him because of his father, Bullfrog Goldsworthy because he is a radio host on a popular rock music station.

Adam Torres is Eli's best friend, always has been, always will be. He knows Eli inside and out and they are inseparable. Adam has brown hair and he is a big sweet heart. He is a friend with any one he meets and everyone always trusts him with their secrets. All in all, Adam knows everything.

Julia has been Eli's girlfriend of the past 6 months and they are what their friends call, "the dream couple." Well, that was before Eli began to lose interest in Julia and she was constantly cheating on him. They broke up several times but they always got back together because they both thought that they could set aside their differences. Julia was a very pretty girl. She had long, dark brown hair that looked perfect every day, a small very thin body. It was no wonder she could get any boy she wanted and she felt that she always wanted to be with Eli because he was the only guy that didn't like her for just her looks, but her personality too. She was an artist; she could close her eyes and draw whatever she saw almost perfectly. She wasn't the brightest student but it didn't matter to Eli.

Jake has been Julia's neighbor since the first grade, when Jake moved to Toronto. His father, Glen, and him moved when Jake's mother died in a fatal car crash and his father thought that they needed a "change of scenery". They moved right next to Julia's house and they became friends instantly when they sat together on the bus on the first day of first grade. Jake grew up to be a tall boy, with reddish hair. He always wore flannel and he helped his father with his carpentry business. Jake was a pro at it and one day hoped to take over the family business, which excited his father to no end.

Together, these four friends, plus Jenna and KC, make up the 'popular kids' at Degrassi. Everyone envies them, they want to be friends with them, and they want to be with them. They pretty much just want to be them.

Eli felt someone plop them self down next to him and kiss his cheek, and looked over to see a smiling Julia. He greeted her and took her hand in his.

Jake greets the two boys and tells him about exciting news that he found out just this morning before he left for school. Before he could share the news, however, KC Guthrie, star of the basketball team, and his girlfriend, Jenna Middleton, a power squad member, came and interrupted him with something completely unimportant. They did this frequently, always bragging to their friends about how perfect their relationship was and how in love they were, when in reality they fought constantly and could not last a week without getting mad at each other.

Adam decides to intercede and asks Jake about his exciting news. Jake tells his friends about how when he was younger, his father and him would always go to a lake in northern Canada and in the cottage next to them, there was this family and they had two girls, one his age and one a few years older. He proceeded to tell his friends about the girl his age, how they became friends even though he always picked on her, but she knew he was kidding. He told them about how sad he was because he never thought he would see her again after his father and him stopped going to the cottage because they couldn't afford to take vacations like that anymore but then one day she found him on FaceRange and friend requested him. They have been talking constantly and apparently her parents were getting divorced and her and her mother were moving up to Toronto! He was extremely happy when he said that she told him she was going to start going to a school called Degrassi.

The group of teens started talking amongst themselves about the probable new addition to their group. Jenna asked Jake what she was like and he said she was short, with long brown hair and glasses. Their family is very religious and he used to tease her by calling her 'Saint Clare' because she was always so nerdy about her religion. He said she always used to wear a Catholic School uniform to her regular school and she was always shy.

The conversation dispersed and everyone started talking to other people and Jake was in a deep conversation with KC about some sports game that was on TV last night. He was talking about the final point when he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned around to see a short girl, she wasn't skinny but she definitely was a not fat, with short curly hair and big blue eye. She wore dark blue skinny jeans and a white cardigan and white flats. Looking up at him, she asked, "Jake?"

Jake is confused because he doesn't know how this strange girl recognizes who he is. He answers with a hesitant "yeah" and she engulfs him in a hug. Jake hugs back, to make her not feel embarrassed when he doesn't recognizes him. He gives her a strange look when they separate and she blushes and says, "It's me, Clare. Clare Edwards?"
