ELI'S POV.

Finally, it was time to go back to Degrassi. I know I shouldn't be happy about this, because there's going to be so many changes, but I really wanted to see Clare. I felt like such a jerk before, with all the Fitz drama, but I was determined to change.

I put on my uniform and looked in disgust at it. I have to wear this? It wasn't exactly my style.

I sighed.

I just hoped today Clare would give me another chance. I knew I could do it. She was worth it.

CLARE'S POV.

It was another normal morning here in Canada. A cloudy, cold morning. I hated knowing I had to wear uniforms to school. Sure, I had before, but I'd outgrown that. I have developed my own neat style since then, and I really didn't want to give that up.

I took another look in the mirror and bit my lip. I wasn't sure if I was ready for today. It was going to be a new day, at Degrassi. A horrible day. I could feel it now.

Mom had breakfast sitting at the table as normal. Scrambled eggs and pancakes, as always. I ate in horror listening to the sound of my parents arguing. It made me feel ill inside knowing something was wrong, and there wasn't anything I could do about it.

I sighed, and finished my food then

"I'm leaving!" I yelled though nobody could hear over the sound of my parents bickering.

I took a deep breath and got on my bike and left to school.

The ride to school wasn't long; I actually enjoyed it. It gave me time to think. About life, about family… about Eli.

All break that's the main thing that's been on my mind. Before break I had told him I couldn't be with him. He wasn't the person I thought he was, but something deep inside of me was telling me that he was "the one" for me.

I blamed that on stupid teenage hormones.
