Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN DEGRASSI!

King and Queen of Hearts

I stood awkwardly inside the women's bathroom staring at the reflection of my past. Dinner with grandma just ended and my mother is escorting her back home while Dad, Drew and I stayed behind. I can't stand looking at myself dress like this. It's suffocating me. I need to change. I proceeded to one of the stalls and changed in to my shirt and tie. Drew and I had plans for the rest of the night. Sav and Holly J are throwing a party above the Dot and they invited most of the Degrassi students. Since Holly J is the mastermind for the party I'm pretty sure Fiona is bound to be there. Which is something I'm not looking forward to.

I peeked through the crease of the door to check if it was clear. Once I made sure there was no one around, I proceeded to the exit. I met my brother and my dad outside the restaurant waiting for the valet to bring out our car.

"Looking sharp as usual, eh, Adam?" My dad said patting me on the shoulder. "I have to look good for the ladies." I joked. Drew smirked at me while my dad just laughed. My smile faded when I remembered the last time I dressed up like this. It was two weeks ago when I threw a New Yorker style party for Fiona. She ended up not appearing at all. Ever since then I tried my best to settle my feelings for her since she didn't feel the same way about me.

Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate inside my pocket. I fished it out from my pocket and stared at the caller ID with a grimaced expression. It was Fiona. I hesitated to answer the call. I don't really feel like talking to her right now. If I'm going to forget about her then I should just ignore her. I shoved my phone back into my pocket and pretended it didn't exist. However, my phone continued to vibrate. I fidgeted on my spot trying to ignore the vibrating phone. Damn. Please hang up. I tried my best to ignore the call, but in the end I failed. I grabbed the phone out of my pocket and walked away from Drew and my dad and answered the phone.

"Hello?" I said way too anxiously. Smooth, Adam.

"Adam?" I heard her say in a soft and low tone.

"Yea, what's up?" I asked trying to sound like I was doing fine when I really wasn't. I felt really uncomfortable talking to her right now.

"Can you please come to my condo?" I heard her say, then I heard her hiccupped.

"Fiona, are you drunk?" I asked worriedly. I heard her giggle from the other line.

"Noooooo~ of course *hiccup* not." She said in a sing-song voice. Right. Of course you're not, because you sound totally sane right now. I shook my head furiously.

"Look, Fiona. I really don't think I should come to your condo right now. I'm a little busy. Why don't you just ask Holly J to help you out?" I really can't see her right now. It was hard enough not to answer her call and now she wants me to go over to her condo? I don't think I'll have the strength to leave if I do so. My thoughts were disrupted when I heard sobbing noises from the other line. "Are you crying?" I asked, my face full of concern.

"Adam…." She said with so much passion and longing. I can't help but feel for her. Gaah, she's making this waaay too hard for me!

After giving it some thought I sighed in defeat. "Alright, Fiona. I'm coming. Just wait for me ok?" I hung up the phone and ran back to where Drew and my dad were. They were about to enter the car when they spotted me.

"Adam hurry! We're going to be late for the party!" Drew complained motioning me to get inside the car.

"Sorry, Andrew. Change of plans. You're going to have to go by yourself." I said guiltily.

"What?" he asked surprised at what I just said.

"Something came up and I have to go. I'll see you guys later at home. I call you guys, ok?" Without waiting for a reply I headed towards Fiona's condo leaving behind an angry Drew and my confused dad.

When I was finally at her front door, I reluctantly pressed the door bell. A few minutes later the door finally opened. To my surprise a very sane Fiona welcomed me in. I stood outside like an idiot staring at her with my mouth open. Wooow. She –she looks beautiful. I slapped myself mentally when I realized what I was doing.

"Please come in." She said motioning me to come inside. I walked inside her condo my eyes fixed on the floor for I didn't want to become once again enchanted by her beauty. She closed the door behind her and walked over in front of me. I looked up at her and we stared at each other for a moment. Her eyes were glossy and her cheeks were flushed. She really had been crying. And from the smell of the alcohol I'm pretty sure she was drinking as well.

She staggered towards me and grabbed my shoulders when she almost lost her balance. "Fiona….." I whispered. I was surprised when she leaned towards me and rested her head on my chest and wrapping her arms around my waist. "Fiona…." I tried to pull away but she wouldn't let me.

"Can we stay like this for a while?" she pleaded. I felt a lump on my throat. My brain wanted to tell her no, but my heart said otherwise. "Sure." I said meekly. I can feel my heart beating fast and I wondered if she could feel it too. Our bodies were so closed to each other, I'm pretty sure she can feel it. We stood there like that for about six minutes. She was the first one to pull away from our hug, but she kept the distance close. Close enough for us to feel each other's breath. We stared at each other for a moment. I can feel myself being drowned into her beautiful oceanic blue eyes.

Without warning she pressed her lips on mine causing me to fall back, but she held on. The weak man that I am, I found myself surrendering, and responding back to her every kisses. I let out a moan when I felt her tongue snake its way in to my mouth. In response I grabbed her by the waist and slammed her gently on to the wall behind her. The two of us battled for dominance. I cupped her face with my hands while her hands roamed my back. We continued like that for a while. After what seemed like forever we slowly pulled apart, both of us gasping for air. I stood there shock at what just happened. Wow. That was amazing.

"Adam, I'm really sorry." I heard her say.

"Sorry for what?" For a moment I completely forgot about the fact that I was mad at her for standing me up. When I finally do remember, I let out a soft "oh" before taking a step back from her. She tried to reach for my hands but I pulled them away.

"Adam," she said again.

"Why did you ask me to come here?" I demanded, my eyes fixated on hers. It's been the question that's been plaguing my mind ever since she called me. I wanted to know real badly.

"I wanted to apologize to you for standing you up that night. I also wanted to let you know the reason why I didn't come." So there was a reason. My gaze softened a little. "Go on." I said.

"Well, you've probably heard the rumor about me right?" I nodded my head. I've heard some rumors that said that the reason why Fiona left New York was to run away from a bad relationship. I didn't believe it though. "It's true." She said. "I was in a bad relationship. More specifically I used to be in an abusive relationship." My eyebrow shot up in surprise. "When he hit me for the first time, I just ignored it. I thought it was normal. People lose their temper all the time right? That's what I thought. I soon realized I was wrong. He tried to pushed more than what I was ready for. So when I refused, he hit me again. Then I caught him cheating on me. I saw him kissing his ex. And when I confronted him about it, he pushed me down the stairs."

No way. What kind of sick animal would do that? From the tone of her voice I could tell she was on the verge of crying. I wanted to console her so badly. But I don't know if I have the courage to do so. "That's why I moved back here to Degrassi." She continued. "I wanted to start fresh, away from all that drama. When I met you, I was still in the process of healing from that nightmare. That's why when you said you were throwing a party for me I knew you liked me. Well, I knew you were interested in me." She bit her bottom lip before continuing. "And I do like you too, Adam." My whole face turned red after hearing her confession. I looked up and saw her smiling. But then it faded. "I—I was just not sure if I'm ready for another relationship. Hence, the reason why I didn't show up to the party." Oh. My mouth turned into a frown and my eyes darted to the floor.

"But after thinking about it for some time, I finally decided." My gaze shot back up towards her. Decided? On what? "I decided that if it was you Adam, then I'm willing to try." Huh? "If it was you, then I'm willing to start a new relationship. But are you also willing to start a relationship with me?" I stood there with my mouth slightly open. I couldn't believe what I just heard. My heart was beating so hard I'm not even sure if I heard it correctly. Did she just ask me if I'm willing to start a relationship with her? Fiona Coyne. A rich, beautiful, smart, cute socialite just asked me, a confused transgendered freak, to become her boyfriend? I was too engrossed at what she said that I even forgot to reply back. "Umm-ah—erm…." Geez what's wrong with me? Why the hell am I stuttering? SAY YES STUPID!

"YES!" I said to her. Well more like yelled to her. I mentally slapped myself for yelling out loud.

She giggled at my reply. "So does that mean I have a date for tonight's party?" she asked so adorably I couldn't help but grin like a little kid. "Uh huh." I said like an idiot. Smooth, Adam. Suddenly, I felt Fiona slip her hand in mine. I looked down at our intertwined hands and then up at her. She was smiling at me from ear to ear. I couldn't help but smile back. We hailed a cab to get to the Dot. When we finally arrived at the party we noticed everyone staring at us. They were probably wondering why Fiona and I were together, holding hands. I tried to hide my smile as people continued to whisper about us. I glanced at Fiona and she just gave me a smile.

I spotted Drew across the dance floor with his mouth literally on the floor. I just smirked. Holly J did a double take when she spotted Fiona with me. Clare was smiling ecstatically when she saw us, while EIli just smirked. We both laughed at our friends' reactions. As we continued to make our way towards the dance floor, the mood of the party changed. Sav put on a slow dance for the couples in the party. I took a deep breath and turned to Fiona.

"May I have this dance?" I asked nervously offering my hand for her to take. "Yes you may." She said delightfully as she placed her hand on my hand. I gently pulled her with me and guided her towards the dance floor. I stopped at the center of the dance floor and placed my hands behind her, while the other one held her hand. "You know how to dance?" she asked me curiously. "Hey, I took ballroom dancing in remedial gym. I know some stuff." I said coolly. She giggled again placing her hand just a tad bit below my shoulder. She allowed me to take the lead and I did confidently. I showed off my moves spinning her and twirling her around.

But after a while we just swayed softly, holding each other in our arms. Her hands were wrapped around my neck while my hands were wrapped around her waist. We were both facing each other, our foreheads leaning on each other. We stared at each other as if we were both lost in each other's gazes. From the point of view of an outsider we looked like we've been enchanted by pure love. And we were. I don't know what it is, but she made me feel so comfortable with her. She makes me feel like I can be more than I am now. Her gaze made my knees go weak. Her eyes melted my heart. And her kisses lights fireworks in my head.

When I felt her breath brush upon my face I immediately felt a tingling sensation inside of me. My mind was going on frenzy. I want to hold her in my arms forever. I don't ever want to let her go. Oh, how I wish this night will never end. Lost in my thoughts, I didn't notice her leaning closer to me. I was startled when I felt her lips press against mine. I complied with her wish. Our kiss was full of emotion and so much passion. It felt good. It felt right. I love her. And she loves me. Tonight, at least for this fleeting moment we were the king and queen of hearts.
