Adam Torres heard footsteps coming his way as he got the materials he would need for his next class. He turned to see who it was, and was surprised to see Tristan Milligan, a niner that he (mistakenly?) got set up on a blind date with. The younger boy had a smile on his face. A confused one came onto Adam's face as well.

"Uh, hey, Tristan. What's up?" Adam asked, turning back to his locker. He had chem next, and he didn't want to forget his notebook like last time.

"Remember how you said to set you up with one of my female friends?" The boy asked. Adam thought back for a moment and did vaguely remember that conversation. He nodded, but still didn't look at the boy, intent on finding his notebook. "Well, I've found someone for you!" He declared. This caused the older teen to look at the boy.

He hadn't been serious when he told Tristan to set him up. Sure, it would be cool to have a girlfriend or whatever, but he kind of thought depending on a Grade Nine for a date was a little pathetic. Had it really gotten to a point where Adam couldn't get his own relationship anymore? He was thankful to Tristan, but he wasn't even sure he wanted a girlfriend.

"Look, Tristan-" Adam began, but the older boy was cut off by the excited redhead.

"Before you say no, just hear me out. She's nice, funny, smart, talented, and, really Adam, what have you got to lose?" He asked, giving Adam a look. Adam stared back at the other boy. He was right. What DID Adam really have to lose? If it didn't work out, it didn't work out. But did he really want to go and try? "Oh, come on, Adam. You know you want to." Tristan said, a grin on his face.

Adam sighed, caving. "Fine. When and where am I going to meet her?" He asked. Tristan smiled hugely and clapped. Adam smirked at the boy's enthusiasm.

"Tomorrow night at seven at the Dot." The boy replied. "You won't regret this, Adam, I promise." He said as he started to leave and the bell rung. Adam looked at his locker and groaned. He still hadn't found his chemistry notebook.

The Niner Quartet made their way to their lunch table, trays in their hands. They were talking about their previous classes as they sat down. Tristan looked at Maya for a second and she caught his glance.

"Tris, why are you looking at me like that?" She asked, taking a bite of her food.

Tristan was quiet for a moment. How could he tell her that he kind of set her up on a blind date without getting her permission first? It wasn't the smartest move to go to Adam first, but he thought that the older boy would put up more of a fight than he did.

"Promise you won't be mad at me?" He asked. Maya shrugged and nodded, obviously having no clue what he had done. "I kind of set you up on a blind date for tomorrow."

Maya almost spit out the water she was drinking, her eyes wide. "Tristan! Why would you do that without telling me? Isn't it kind of important that I know?"

"Yes, it is. But I thought I'd have more trouble convincing him, so I went to him first, and he agreed. Please don't make me tell him that you're not interested."

Maya shook her head and glared at her friend. She couldn't believe he had done something like this. Sure, Tristan had made rash decisions before, but none really involving her. And now he went and did something that effected her directly. She was so angry at the taller boy.

"I can't believe you didn't ask me first." She said, still glaring.

"I know, and I'm sorry. But if it makes you feel any better, the guy is really awesome."

"It doesn't." She said, bluntly.

All of the Niners were silent for a couple of minutes. No one really knowing what to say. Maya sat with her arms crossed, a scowl on her face. She wasn't exactly upset that Tristan setting her up without her asking him to, but it was more of the fact that he just told the guy she'd go without asking her. It made her feel like she was obligated to go.

"I think you should go, Maya." Tori said, after a couple of minutes. "It could be fun. And besides, what's the worst that could happen?"

Maya sat in silence for a few more seconds before rolling her eyes. "Ugh, fine. But you owe me big time, Tris."

Tristan smiled hugely at the girl. "Don't worry, you won't regret this. The guy's great. Trust me."

Maya just rolled her eyes and started eating, preferring to not talk about it anymore. She wanted to stay mad at Tristan. She didn't want to think that there was a possibility that she could like the guy. Because there wasn't.

As the final bell for school rang that day and kids poured out of Degrassi, Adam walked over to his car. Tristan came running to catch up with him. "Hey, I just wanted to tell you that everything's set for tomorrow."

Adam gave him a confused look. "Wasn't it already?" He asked. Tristan had talked to him like there was no doubt that the date was going to happen. He was confused to hear just now that everything was finally set up for tomorrow night.

"Kind of. She needed some convincing. But it's all worked out now. Don't worry."

Adam gave the niner a look, but didn't say anything. "Okay, great. Thanks, Tristan. I'll see you tomorrow." He said as he climbed into his car and drove away, wondering what exactly he had gotten himself into.

The wind whipped Maya's hair as she walked home from school with Tori. She was still annoyed with Tristan for what he did, but most of her anger had subsided. She just wanted to go and get it over with. She was still in denial about there being a chance that when she got there she'd like the guy.

"I don't see what such the big deal is. You could meet a great guy." Tori said. Maya shrugged. "Oh come on, let yourself live a little, Matlin." She continued, a smile on her face.

"I'm going, aren't I?" Maya snapped back, but with no maliciousness in her voice.

"Even you have to admit it would be nice to meet someone." The brunette said. Maya shrugged, not committing to anything. Sure, it would be nice to meet someone. But she didn't know if she would find it on a blind date. She just couldn't tell anyone that.

As they walked, talking about other things, Maya still had the date in the back of her mind, wondering what tomorrow night at the Dot would bring.

To be continued...

So, I decided to do a Adam/Maya threeshot based on when Adam told Tristan that he could set him up with any of his female friends. Sorry for all of the Adam/Maya and/or Degrassi spam lately, but I've been really inspired lately.

I hope you guys liked the first part and the next part should probably be up within a few days. Sorry for any OOC-ness. I actually think this one turned out okay overall, but the next couple parts should be better/more interesting.

Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi. If I did, Adam&Maya would be a couple.
