Open Your Eyes
Title: Open Your Eyes.
Author: Cherie Dennis.
Summary: Ellie Nash sent her buddy Craig Manning to rehab after dealing with the fall-out of his drug addiction. The therapy, along with the long days spent within the confines of his room, allowed the almost-famous musician to think about things.
And boy, did he think.
A year later, Craig returns to Degrassi to patch up old relationships. No one knows that he came back, nor do they know the large secret he's carrying with him.
Will someone be able to drag it out of him? Or will he be able to convince them – and himself – that it isn't true?
Rating: I'm going to go with T, but it may change.
Pairings: Marco/Craig. Other couples will be seen, like Marco/Dylan and such. Not sure how many characters I will pull in, but I'll try to get a lot of them.
Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi or its characters. Please know that this is my first shot at a Degrassi fanfic, and I'm a little nervous about it. It was just going to be a lengthy oneshot, but I changed my mind.
Be aware that this story does contain slash, and will probably end up having some graphic storylines. As I said, rating may change.
Prologue:
Everyone makes mistakes, right? I can't think of a single person who hasn't made one, but mine seem to be amplified. I just can't stop making them. It's like everywhere I turn – BAM! – there's another bump in the road that I created.
I suppose that's why I came back to Degrassi instead of going back to Joey's. I needed to patch up some things and make things right with those I hurt before. But how am I supposed to do that while I'm sitting here, dealing with one of the biggest problems in the world?
I know that I can't tell anyone, but God how I wish I could. Maybe, if I ignore it, it will go away.
Of course, that didn't seem to help Marco out…
That's probably one of the worst prologues in the history of writing, but hopefully you guys understand what the story's going to be about. If not, you'll just have to read and see! And please, please, please give me feedback! Anything at all! From saying "Good job!" to telling me what I should improve on. Anything! And, like my other stories, it's going to be third-person, not first.
