A/N: Thank you to all those that have reviewed and any of you that have returned. Your reactions encouraged me to finish and post the next chapter before I had initially intended. Though I'm not completely sure how many chapters this will be, I plan to post at least one chapter a week and have the story completed by the time Degrassi returns.

Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi or the characters mentioned.

After discussing some minor changes for the next performance, Eli and Adam were sitting on the stage. Eli might have been preoccupied with the play and Clare recently but even he couldn't miss the looks that Adam and Becky were giving each other in the hallway. "So what's going on between you and Becky Baker?"

Adam glared at Eli, not wanting to talk about Becky. "How's Clare doing?"

Eli laughed, knowing exactly what Adam was doing. "She's a lot better now; stop changing the subject."

Adam didn't know what was going on between him and Becky. There was no real opportunity to properly speak to each other since Becky hugged him at the end of opening night. It was obvious that something had changed between them but could Adam even call Becky a friend. There was only one way Adam could answer Eli's question. "Nothing's going on. We're just talking."

Eli laughed again. "No, we're just talking. What I saw earlier isn't just talking."

Adam knew that Eli wasn't going to drop the subject anytime soon so he decided to open up about Becky. "She knows the truth about me and she had a very Becky like reaction."

Eli really was in a bubble. He didn't know Becky knew about Adam and Eli wondered what else he had missed out on. He had to admit that he was curious not just because it was his friend but because of how Becky had been about Romeo and Jules. There was definitely a change in her, seeing as she was willing to play the part of Jules. He had a feeling there was so much more going on then Adam was letting on. "That still doesn't explain what I saw. The both of you were smiling as if you like each other. I thought you said tolerance wasn't her thing."

"She keeps surprising me. After the final song she hugged me and it was like… I don't know how to explain it." Adam had been going over the hug in his mind constantly since it happened. Not only had he been trying to sort out his feelings but he was also trying to guess how Becky was feeling. Adam knew he couldn't just go and ask her.

"The smile on your face right now explains it all. I just…I don't want you to get hurt Adam. I remember how you were after Fiona. Becky's beliefs are going to be a huge issue and her father is the pastor of their church."

Eli hit the nail on the head. The other shoe had dropped big time. The issue of Becky's beliefs and family was the biggest stumbling block to anything happening. "I know all that." For the first time Adam decided to just admit the truth. "I just can't help that I like her despite that."


Becky had been standing in the bathroom, still trying to get her head around what she just witnessed. Fiona had dated Adam and now she's dating a girl. Nothing could stop the internal panic that was happening. She held on tight to her cross and started praying. Despite her attempt to calm down, she found herself getting more emotional. She felt the start of tears welling up in her eyes and she tried to wipe them quickly before she started to fully cry.

Jenna had walked into the bathroom on a mission to find Becky. As she walked further inside to check, she noticed the girl washing her hands. "I'm glad I caught you before you spoke to Fiona. There's something I should tell you before you do."

Becky turned around to face Jenna, looking very unimpressed, "Do you mean the fact that she's gay?"

"So you've already spoken to her."

"No. I saw it with my own eyes. What if…" Before Becky could finish what she was about to say, Jenna interrupted her. "Stop, I know what you're going to say. You said it the other day in this very bathroom. You can't be turned gay. I don't know what happened between Adam and Fiona but you need to talk to her and then talk to him."

Becky thought about what Jenna had just said and the only decision she could make right now, was to just finish the day and go home. She wasn't ready to speak to either of them yet. She didn't want to speak to anyone else for the rest of the day.
