Skylar walked into Degrassi. Looking around, she knew she'd get lost quickly and easily. Of course, her phone had to buzz right at that moment. Skylar checked it and saw a schedule updated to her Facerage.

It read, English, 8AM. Room: 30b

It was a little strange, but cool how this school system worked. Her old school-Although had it's good sides-was never this organized.

"Lost?" A guy whispered in her ear. She jumped and nearly knocked into him.

She turned around and saw a guy, wearing a leather jacket and a Dead Hand band shirt. "S-sorry." She muttered, blushing and looking down at her combat boots.

With a chuckle, the guy said, "It's fine, Green."

Skylar assumed the nick-name had come from her hair. Which was so black it had purple streaks, and half of her hair bright green. Or her bright green eyes that she loved so much. He walked off still chuckling to himself. She made a face but followed him. Maybe he'd been in English. If not, she was in trouble because the bell rang at that very moment.

As she followed the guy into a room, she peaked at the door. 30b. With a grin, she walked in only to realize every seat was taken, other than the one beside the Dead Hand dude. She chewed on her lip as she walked over. "Anybody sit here?"

He gave a shrug and said, "I guess they do now."

Skylar sat down and looked over. He was reading a comic book, something she loved to do in her spare time as well. She couldn't tell you how many comic books were in her room at this moment. All filled with gore, drama, vampires, or even regular horror stories.

He must have seen her staring and closed the book. "You like comics?" He asked.

She gave a small jump to the question but nodded. "Yeah, it looks full of horror." She pointed to the man on the front. He was in a straight jacket and seemed to be laughing at nothing. The words on the front read "Gothic Tales."

He nodded. "Yeah, it's really very cool. It doesn't scare you, does it?" He raised his eye brows and watched her carefully.

She shook her head and said, "Nah. I like intense stuff."

"I'm Eli." He smiled.

"Skylar.." She murmured.

"If you two are done," The teacher walked over, carrying a book in her hands. "We shall start the class. Mr. Goldsworthy, I will ask you to put your book down." She walked back to her desk and sat on top of it.

Eli leaned over to Skylar. "Hey, would you like to come with me tonight? I'm going to pick up the latest issue of Gothic Tales."

She thought about this for a minute. Did she really want to go somewhere with this guy she just met? Her mother wanted her to finally make some friends. Most people avoided her because of her punk hair, gothic clothing style, and piercings on her nose, the center of her lip, and earrings all the way up her ear. It had always been hard for her to hang out with good people. She couldn't help how she dressed, really. It was what she liked, so she wore it. Eli seemed like that kind of person himself. It may be good for her.

Finally, she nodded and maneged a small smile. "Sure."

After class eneded, she walked into the halls and bumped into Eli.

"Hey, Sky." He smirked at her. The smirk made Skylar's heart melt with enjoyment. How could he be so sexy? And how could he talk to her? She guessed he didn't have too many friends to be talking to the new kid.

Skylar waved slightly. "Sup?"

He leaned against the lockers and kicked his foot up on in. "I forgot to give you my number." And with a wink, he snatched her sidekick out of her hand and pressed a few buttons. Once he gave it back, she looked at his number which had been placed.

"Text me later. Alright, Green?" He winked at her and then walked down the hall.

Skylar thought she'd die before she even had a chance to become better friends with him.

The bell rang. Meaning lunch was here after Skylar left her World History class. She walked into the cafeteria and waited in the line. She had met nobody else that would talk to her, other than his guy named Adam. He knew Eli, and saw them talking together. He wanted to know what was up with her, and if she had any secrets that would hurt him, whatever that meant.

Now she just had to wait until that afternoon to hang out with anybody. She realized she had no other classes with the guy whom was any gothic girls dream dude. Maybe even a few gay gothic guys would fall for him.

Skylar sighed as she grabbed an apple, chocolate milk, mac & cheese, and a very small slice of lemon cake. Healthy-not-but it was a good meal.

As she walked around the lunch room, wondering where to sit, a girl called her over. She had dark skin but big, beautiful eyes. Skylar only wished she had eyes those big. "Excuse me, but do you have a few minutes to spear?" She asked. Her voice being a little annoying, but Skylar could deal with that.

She shrugged as the girl pointed for her to sit down. "What do you need?" Skylar asked.

"Well first off.." She cleared her throat. "My name is Alli Bhandari. I am working on a project for a carnival and I want this to be the best one Degrassi has ever seen!" She threw her hands up in the air.

Skylar nodded. "Alright.. Well first off; my name is Skylar. And I have no idea how to do that."

"You know how to run booths, right?" She pouted.

Skylar shrugged. "I've never worked at one before. The closest I've gotten to a carnival was a small town event with only one clown, and one booth. A food booth." She shrugged. "I'm from a small town."

Alli bit her lip. "Well, I'll teach you. But look, I really need help on this. I need help planning. I already have a few different people working on booths, and other projects."

"And you want a total stranger to help you plan?"

Alli grinned. "That's right! It'll be a good chance to get to know each other. We'll each gained a friend."

"Alright. But when-"

"Tonight. Text me! Just look up my Facerage, it has my number." Alli sang and danced out of the cafe.

Skylar sat there, wondering what just happened.

"Green! There ya are!" Eli sat down and folded his hands in front of him.

Skylar jumped. "Stalker?" She teased.

Eli chuckled to himself. "Nah, I just didn't realize we had the same lunch time. I was going to bail but wanted to find out."

"And why would you want to find me?" Skylar cocked her head to the side and watched him carefully. She couldn't quite figure him out. Why was he looking for her? And why did he want to see her?

The smirk was back on his face. "I think we're going to become great friends. I mean, I haven't scared you away yet." He shrugged.

"Because I don't scare easily." She tried smirking back, but felt as though she failed at it.

Eli chuckled and said, "So, about tonight. Still coming?"

Skylar nodded. "As far as I know. When are you leaving?"

"Right after school gets out. If you decide to come, text me at the final bell." He smirked once more and slipped out of the seat. Before she knew it, he was gone.

Why did he seem to want to hang out, but then suddenly left?
