Authors Notes: This all takes place while eli and Clare are going out and everythings good. Really wanted to get this out before they broke up basicly but that didn't happen so lets just pretend for the story it never did, because come on! Who doesn't love Eclare? Sorry if somethings arn't quite accurate like Eli's house or the the way the lunchroom works but just ignore that please its so the story works better :)
italics are thoughts, noises, and so on i assume you get the point.
Disclaimer: I own a toothbrush but sadly i don't own Degrassi in any shape or form.
It's only getting worse…
"Wow what a perfect way to start a journal entry." scratching at my auburn locks hoping for inspiration on how to continue to hit me.
TIK TOK. TIK TOK. TIK TOK. The minutes passed by steadily, while my mind, remained empty.
"Oh well then that's all I'm putting Dr. Nichols will just have to get over it." And himself. I added mentally. Oh how I despised that man.
Dropping my notebook into my school bag, I slung it over my shoulder in one swift motion.
There was a soft knock on my door; instantly I knew who it was. "Come in aunt CeCe!" the door hinges squeaked as the door swung open. Making a mental note to oil them later I sat down next to my aunt on my small blue bed.
"Are you sure you're ready for this?" I could tell she was trying to hide her worry from me but she was doing a terrible job at it. But for her, I pretended I had no clue.
"Yeah I'll be fine." smiling, to convince her I added, "I promise."
Aunt CeCe was silent with thought, "Well…Okay. But you're going to ride with Eli, who'll be there all day - if you need something." Quickly I leaned forward giving her a tight squeeze.
Pulling away as I spoke, "Thanks for everything your doing for me. I swung my arm around gesturing to my new room in their house.
I told her just the right thing to make her nerves relax. "Don't worry about it Tyler your family." This time it was her who gave me a tight squeeze. Rising from my bed she walked to the door leaving. Grasping onto the doorknob she turned her head towards me. "How'd you know it was me at the door - your door?"
Replying quickly as I stood up, "You knock softly." Gaining a confused look from CeCe, I was forced to explain. "Okay Bullfrog knocks actually more like pounds on the door, Eli he just walks in," - making a face, she smiled - "compared to them you knock softly." after nodding she opened the door and left me alone in my room.
Taking one last glance at myself in the full-length mirror hanging on the wall, before I walked out of the room - satisfied I left.
Making my way down the steps two at a time. Eli was pacing back and forth in front of the door. "What took you so long?" he questioned me pulling the keys of their spot on the rack by the door.
"Relax killer, your mom was just talking to me okay?" jeesh someone's cranky. Stepping out the door and onto the small little stoop that connected the steps and the front door together I looked up at the bright blue sky. Smiling for reasons I didn't know why. I looked back down and made my way over to the hearse. Not before I was out of earshot to hear CeCe speaking to Eli.
"Keep an eye on her please, babyboy." I slammed the passenger door shut to let them know I had heard them.
"She does it only because she cares about you Ty." Eli was leaning against his open door with his arms loosely crossed over this chest. He spoke calmly, I guess to try to calm me down. He didn't move, he was waiting for me to respond.
Giving in I whispered, "I know." Sliding into the seat he started the engine with one hand shutting the door with the other. And off we go. I thought while we pulled forward.
The ride to Degrassi was shorter then I had hopped, pulling in through the gates to the parking lot I watched the students and teachers walk into the building smiling and laughing. Just being happy.
"We're early."
I was snapped back into reality by Eli speaking to me, though I had no clue what he did say to me. I had to ask him what he had just said seconds ago.
Sighing not wanting to have to repeat himself but did anyways, "We're here." Acknowledging what he said with a little noise I got out of Morty shaking some as I started to follow the groups of people going inside. Stopping on the steps, I looked up at the large building feeling myself get even more nervous. In the large letters a Sign read: DEGRASSI home of the panthers. Well here I am.
~Later in the day~
It was lunch, apparently it was separated into four classes each a mixture of kids from all the grades. I spotted Eli at a table in the corner with two other people. A boy with a brown beanie and a girl who Eli had his arm around who must be his girlfriend. We had the same color hair except mine was long and straight, her's was short and curled. Not taking any chances on Eli murdering me if I sat there I went to a different table by myself.
Adam's POV
Sitting at our usual table, I saw what I thought was the new girl walk in and sit at a table by herself. "Hey isn't that the new girl?" I pointed over to her. Clare nodded. While Eli looked down at his empty tray removing his arm from Clare. "A ninth grader right?"
"I don't know Adam, she's in my math class."
"Oh. Okay." Eli suddenly jumped up out of his seat.
"Can we just STOP talking about her already?" he practically yelled it.
"What? All I said was-" but before I could finish he took his tray, dumped it, leaving the lunchroom. "What's his problem." it was more of a statement then a question so Clare just shrugged it off. "Actually now that I look at her she looks like she could be you guys kid. Your hair and his looks, but in girl form."
Laughing now Clare tossed a grape at me. "Yeah right."
"She's kinda hot."
"Okay ew Adam I'm leaving, I need to go find Eli." Clare left out the same door as Eli, minus the attitude.
Not wanting to be alone I picked up my things and moved to where the new girl was sitting. "Hey I'm Adam." I tried to look as friendly as possible.
Looking up startled but then relaxing "Oh, hi. Tyler." she - Tyler shook my hand. Up close now, I noticed she had light creamy hazel brown eyes. "Oh my God! Look at the kid!" She shouted waving her hand franticly pointing behind me, turning I saw nothing.
"What kid?" turning back to her with a confused look.
Glancing down at her hand it had about 10 - 15 of my grapes. Quickly Tyler put both hands under the table. "You stole my grapes!"
"Nooo I dooon't" she smiled innocently while dragging out her O's.
"I saw them!" laughing she popped one into her mouth. "See!"
Shrugging lifting her hand back above the table as she talked, "Not my fault you have good grapes."
Taking one back, she reminded me a lot of Eli so I told her that.
"Is that good or bad?"
I wasn't really sure how to answer. I guess it was more who asked so all I did was shrug.
Clare's POV
Walking down the hall I went straight to Eli's locker, and there he was right where I thought he would be. "Hey." placing my hand on his left shoulder. "Are you okay?"
Running his hand through his hair, "Yeah it's just been a long morning."
"Well as long as you're okay." I removed my hand from Eli's shoulder. The end of lunch bell rang signaling that it was time to get our next class.
Draping his arm around me "Better get to class before your late Edwards." I hit him softly in the side. But I couldn't shake the feeling he was hiding something from me. Oh well saved by the bell I guess.
Tyler's POV
The final bell had rung and I went rushing out the door happy my first day was over. I was on way out when Adam came running up behind me shouting my name. "Hey…Ter wid… You wn han out?" he was panting making it hard to understand what he was saying.
"Catch your breath first please." shaking his head yes we moved out of the doorway so other people could get through. "Okay now what'd you say?"
"Hey Tyler do you want to hang out?" speaking he tried to hide a hopeful smile.
"Yea sure let me just call someone real quick." pulling out my cell phone from my bag I dialed Eli's number. Walking away so Adam wasn't able to hear me.
"Uh hello?" he sounded tired.
"Hey it's Tyler I'm going to hang out with a new friend. So I don't need a ride home."
"Okay. Who?" Oh no. I thought.
"Oh no one really Adam let Aunt CeCe know please Thanks Eli." hopefully he didn't catch Adam's name.
"Yeah no pro- Wait WHAT?" crap now he was mad.
"Okay bye!" Quickly I hung up on him ending the call. I knew I was in for it later from Eli for hanging out with his friend.
