Never Got Over You

by Ravenrules23


Summary: It's been almost a year since JT and Liberty broke up, ever since the baby was born. They're now seniors at Degrassi, and they've somehow decided to talk to each other. Will those same flames light up again? PLEASE R&R!

A/N: I'm back! This time about my former favorite couple, JT and Liberty. Before the whole pregnancy thing hit, of course. It's sad how Liberty won't even talk to JT…but who could after he sold drugs? Anyways, here's the first chappie, and I hope you enjoy! Also, this chapter will be written in JT's POV, Liberty's second and so on…


Chapter One- Love Once Lost

JT the drug dealer.

I should re-name myself that, because people seem to think it's my name.

It's been a year since the whole pregnancy tragedy, and nobody except for Toby, Emma and Manny have seemed to forgive me. The only person, who I really would like SOME respect from, hasn't even looked my way.

Liberty Van Zant.

My one and only, who I hurt so much…I'm a mess now because of it. Throughout all the applications and expressos, nothing can drown the sorrow. It was all because of one little mistake…

"JT?"

I turned my head up, catching the one tear that was on my face.

"Why are you crying?" asked Emma. She seemed worried.

"Oh…nothing." I snapped.

"Yeah, JT crying is nothing. Liberty?" Emma asked. How come everybody seems to know?

"Yeah…I just feel so stupid. I know it's been forever since I've talked to her, but I'm just such a mess and nothing feels right." I responded, catching another tear.

"You should stop worrying about it, if you can. Liberty's a total jerk. Seriously. And to see you suffer because of that selfish straight-jacket…it makes me want to punch her." Emma said. That's nice.

"Thanks Em, you're a great friend. Seriously." I said. She came over and gave me a hug, one of those comforting hugs that I really needed.

"Well, I've got to go. Thanks for the talk." I said, waving. Em waved goodbye.

I walked out to the hall and watched the students walk by. Once I got to the library, I noticed Liberty sitting at a desk by herself. She flipped through papers eagerly, obviously in a rush.

I sat down at a adjacent table and pretended to start homework. I could see Liberty looking at me, as if I wasn't supposed to sit there. It's not like she has control over me anymore.

"What's your problem?" I said. Liberty gave me a glare.

"Nothing. Just noticed how close your table is to mine." Liberty responded.

"And why is this important? Do I not have the freedom to sit at whatever table I want?" I said.

"Of course you do…I just was noticing." Liberty said.

"Splendid. Next time, notice someone else." I snapped. I gave her a glare.

She sighed and returned to her papers. We sat like this for the next 30 minutes, until I saw Toby and got up.

"Toby! Over here!" I said.

Toby came over as I cleared a place for him. Liberty stared at us, giving me another glare.

"Hey Toby!" I said, a little louder than usual.

"Hey. I'm surprised you're sitting this close to Liberty…don't you hate her?" Toby asked. I started to sigh, thinking of everything.

"I don't hate her…we're just not really friendly. At all." I said.

"Ahh, so technically you hate her?" Toby responded, with his usual sarcasm. I nodded.

"Well, I've got to go to Simpson to make up a quiz. See you at the Dot later?" Toby asked.

"Definitely. Catch you later." I said. Toby got up and left.


In JT's Car, after school:

I drove along as I passed several stores and people. I just got back from coffee with Toby, and I wasn't in a mood to see Liberty again.

But, of course, I never got my wish.

"JT, can I get a ride?" Liberty asked. It just so happened that I stopped the car.

"Hmm, let's see…you've ignored me for a year, you treat me like crap, and you're a selfish brat. Don't really think so." I said.

"C'mon JT, my car's being fixed and the bus just left!" Liberty whined. So what?

"Go call your parents then! Doesn't Danny have his permit?" I asked.

"Yeah, but…" Liberty said.

"Sorry, but do you expect me to talk to you after everything that happened? I mean, c'mon Liberty…you don't have to be a genius. I would think that you wouldn't want to talk to me! Aren't I that immature dude who can't make decisions on his own?" I said. She stood there for a few seconds.

"I'm sorry JT. Ok? I'm sorry I treated you like bull and that I bossed you around. Can't we just be friends again? I miss you!" Liberty said. I blushed.

"I miss you too." I said. I opened the passenger car door.

"Thanks." Liberty said. She got in.

We talked all the way to her house, catching up on each other's lives and re-connecting. It felt good, to finally be talking to her and not be crying and miserable all the time. Maybe, for once, something will turn out right…
