I OWN NO ONE EXCET JAISON AND HIS FAMILY...sadly...

Jaison Devin Smith woke up to someone banging on his door. "Jaison get up already you wouldn't want to be late on your first day of school," His mom was still banging. She wasn't giving up anytime soon, so he rolled out of his nice warm bed opened the door. "Alright I'm up," he said as he grabbed his new Degrassi Community School uniform. He walked into the bathroom and started a shower. New School. New House. New Life. New Me. He stepped out of the shower and started to dress. He pulled on His binder, some boxers, and his new (and ugly he might add) khaki pants. He was dreading school today. What if everyone knew? What if someone outted him? He knew that there was another FTM at school, but he' heard about the bathroom incident, and the harassment. Zane Park had told him, they both attend the weekly GLBT meetings in the cafeteria at Degrassi. He warned Jaison about Bianca, Fitz, and Owen. Zane got him worried, he meant well but Jaison was still worried.

Jaison's POV

"Here is your student I.D. you have to wear it to get in any classroom. I've sent a mass message to all your teachers, and you're just in time for 3rd period," Mr. Simpson walked me to class. Ms. Dawes' grade 11 English. I'm not sure why I was put in here, maybe because I love writing. I saw a couple of kids in my grade. They sat kind of close to each other and in the back. "Ah Mr. Simpson you brought us a new student wonderful," Ms. Dawes was one of those serious, fake happy, people who get on your nerves faster than you can blink. "Yes, it is Ms. Dawes. This Is Jaison Smith he's in grade 10 but I'm sure he can meet your standards," Mr. Simpson was good at playing fake happy too. "Well Jaison, you can sit in the back behind Adam," Ms. Dawes seemed to have good means by sitting me next to Adam. I have met him once before, He had come to one LGBT meeting by himself. I wasn't sure if he remembered me, but I remembered him. I went and took me seat, leaving Mr. Simpson to talk to Ms. Dawes. "Hello, Jaison right? I've met you before," Adam reached out a hand to shake once I'd sat down. "Yeah, we met at the LGBT meeting in the park," I say back. "Hey, I'm Claire and this is Eli," the girl next to Adam said as she gestured to the boy in front of her. "Hello Claire, Eli, I'm Jaison," I shook their hands. "Jaison will you please stand up and tell the class something about yourself?" Ms. Dawes asked. At this moment I just love her. I stand up and immediately see all eyes turn and stare at me. I took a deep breath and tried to think of something interesting. "Well, I'm Jaison, I'm 15, and I'm FTM transgender." I sat back down. Everyone just looked at me; did you really honestly just say that? I couldn't believe myself at first. Oh well, better find out from me than anyone else. Ms. Dawes started teaching so everyone turned and paid attention. I was writing a poem when a note landed on my desk. You're seriously Trans? Wow you don't look it at all. Claire I looked up at her, and then back down at the paper. I began writing back. Uh yeah I am what do you mean I don't look it. Is there a standard? Ms. Dawes had just walked out of the room to get some copies from the printer. I threw the note at Claire and she grabbed it quickly. I saw her scribbling quickly before the note was again tossed onto my desk. I realized that she had passed it to Adam who pretended to scratch his back as he dropped it onto my desk. No, no standard just used to Adam I guess I looked down at the note. Wonder if Adam read it before handing it back. I wrote quickly and folded it back up. I'm on testosterone already so I actually look masculine (no offense to Adam) I passed it to Adam just as Ms. Dawes walked into the room. He then passed the note to Claire as he pretended it return her "borrowed" book. Their skill was amazing. The bell rang and we all got up and left the room. "Anyone know where remedial gym is?" I ask while looking at my schedule. "Oh you have class with me I'll take you," Adam says as we stop at his locker.
