First day back at Degrassi, first day of group counseling for poor Eli. Those people are so naïve to think that that fixation actually helps people. But Eli, he had hoped. He walked in the school with his held high and a fake grin on his face, dragging his feet to Room 405: Ms. Suvae's room.
Before he could knock, Ms. Suvae had already opened the door, with the poor unfortunate souls awaiting his arrival. He became overwhelmed, seeing all these "abnormal" people all sitting in a circle. It didn't look like there was anything wrong with any of them at all; they all looked normal, acted normal.
Eli took his seat across from a pretty brunette, and folded his arms casually. Ms. Suvae took a step forward. "Good morning," She said, and then immediately looked at the brunette. "How was break?"
The brunette smiled a very genuine and bright smile. "Nice to see you too, Ms. Suvae." She said. Eli glanced at her name tag that read "Samantha (Sam)".
Ms. Suvae grinned back and handed Eli a nametag. He slipped it under his collar and Ms. Suvae started talking again. "We have someone new joining us today," She looked at Eli. "Would you stand up Eli?"
Eli stood slowly to his feet and let his hands fall to his side. "This is Eli, everyone," Ms. Suvae said. "I hope you can make him feel welcome." He sat back down and lay back on his chair, not amused quite yet.
The hour went on with uninteresting stories of peoples lives when finally, they arrived at Eli. "So what's going on in your life Eli?"
Eli didn't even snag a glance, he just shrugged his shoulders. "Nothing," He said in a monotony sound.
"Not willing to share? Everyone else did."
Eli smirked then sat up; looked Ms. Suvae straight in the eye. "I'm not going to confess my problems to a room full of strangers."
"You're not going to get better if you don't talk about things."
"I don't talk about things." He felt the eye roll of the person across from him. He looked up and his eyes met with Samantha's for the slightest second, but then she looked away with a petrified look on her face.
"Well I hope therapy can change that for you, Eli." Ms. Suvae assures. He looks at her and nods, still not interested in her, but interested in something else.
Just a short little prelude thingy. Hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you don't attack me for making an OC but I think we all know there is not really any hope for Eclare and Eli/Imogen (IF it happens) is going to really suck so I thought I would make an OC. Plus, this story has really been on my heart for a long time but I was so scared to post it because I thought that I was going to get attacked by Eclare fans so since they are broken up, I made it now. Just until the new season starts and see what I can make with that season because I'm so excited for it!
