AN: Hi Hi! It's Hope :) (you know...i used to be called Cat, but anywhooo) new ff by me
ENJOY MY LOVES 3
Disclamer: I do not own Degrassi or its characters, thank you so much for bringing up that pain :(
I know what people think of me when they see me. When they pass me in the halls. They still think "Saint Clare". Even though that was 3 years ago. I'm a junior now. I've changed. Okay, so maybe it's a little soon to say "I've changed" I mean, it's only the first day back. But, I really have changed, and I hope people see that ablout me this year.
This year I have three goals. 1) Avoid Eli Goldsworthy at ALL costs. 2) Avoid Imogen Moreno at all costs. and 3) Avoid Jake Martin at school (seeing as how it will be tough to do so since our parents just got married).
All I'm going to do this year is focus on my school work and hang out with Adam my best guy friend, and Alli my best girl friend. Adam, Alli and I hung out a lot over the summer, and it was really fun, until Adam's family went on vacation to visit they're grandma, and Alli's parents took her to help get Sav settled in school.
"Clare!"
I stop short and turn around, "Alli!" I squeal and run over to her, giving her a big hug. "When did you get back?" I release her and instead link arms with her and continue walking down the halls.
"Last night" she sighs, "and you know my parents, so here I am."
I smile, "I'm glad you are here, who else would I be able to spend the first day of my junior year with?"
"Give me your schedule."
I had her the paper and she looks it over.
"You're still in that stupid advanced English class?" she groans.
"Hey! I happen to like my," I clear my throat and mock her, "stupid advanced English Class."
She rolls her eyes, "We have everything but that, and gym together."
"Oh well, hopefully I have gym with Adam."
An arm wraps around my neck, "Talking about me ladies?"
Alli giggles and rolls her eyes, "You wish Torres."
Adam looks at her, "Nice to see you too, Alliah."
She glares at him, "Shut up!"
He sticks his tongue out, "Make me."
I groan and stop in front of the English room, "Sorry to break this little party up but, we have class Adam."
He rolls his eyes one last time at Alli before walking into the room.
"See you in physics Al." I smile and then follow Adam.
"Oh yippie, Mrs. Dawes and advanced English again." Adam groans.
"It won't kill you." I reply taking my seat.
"Really, I doubt that." Adam replies.
Then Mrs. Dawes walks in and goes over the school rules and does that "Welcome back to another year at Degrassi" speech every teacher gives. She stops mid sentence and sighs, "Mr. Goldsworthy, it's only the first day back and you are five minutes late to class."
"Sorry." I hear Eli reply as he takes a seat.
Mrs. Dawes shakes her head and then continues explaining how we'll be partnered up again this year. "And since Elij-Eli and Clare were such a great writing match last year, they will continue to work together this year."
"What, Mrs. Dawes, that's unfair!"
"What's unfair, Ms. Edwards, is that you are telling me that my ruling as a teacher is unfair."
"Sorry..."
She sighs and then explains the assignment.
I turn to face Eli.
Avoid Eli this year? Yeah right...
After mediocre questions about our likes and dislikes I put down my pencil and look at Eli, "We already know all this information."
He sighs, "It's an assignment Clare...get over it."
I roll my eyes, "Then ask something more detailed other than," I look down at his sheet, "What's your favorite color? You know that already."
He sighs, "Fine... So, what did you do over the summer?"
I think, What did I do?
I hung out with Alli and Adam while they were here, was the maid of honor in my mother's wedding to Glen, successfully avoided Jake for most of the summer, and then...hung...out at Above The Dot.
"Clare..."
I shake my head, "what?"
"What did you do over the summer?"
"Not much, just hung out and adjusted to my new family is all."
He looks me over then pauses and clears his throat, "C-Clare...where's your purity ring...?"
AN: Well?
Review?
