The next day Eli was sitting by his locker with Adam when Clare and Ali came by.

"Eli, we need to talk." Said Clare worriedly.

He sighed, got up and put his comic book down. "What is it Clare?" He asked. It was hard talking to Clare considering it hasn't been a very long time since they broke up, and it still hurt every time he heard her voice.

"You need to leave Lily alone." He heard her words loud and clear but was still confused. "What?" He asked clearly confused and even a little upset. Which everyone then noticed.

"Look, Eli I want you to stay away from her. She doesn't need all the trouble that you bring." Clares words hit him hard, and she knew it too by the way his face scrunched up and withered.

He sucked it up and spoke loud and clear. "Harsh Clare, but Lily and I are friends now, and she keeps coming to me. I won't stay away from her as long as she keeps coming to me." She narrowed her eyebrows and waited for him to continue.

"If you tell her to stay away from me though, and she listens? Well then good for all three of you." He said with a smirk on his face. Ali then spoke up. "Listen Eli, I love Lily. She's one of my best friends, and I don't want the same thing happening to her that happened to Clare." Eli now felt like someone just stabbed him in the chest with a knife. "And me & Clare want to keep her away from any unnecessary drama this year."
"You can't keep her from any drama! This IS Degrassi!" Adam pointed out angrily.
"Look Adam, we just want her away from Eli, it's no big deal." Eli smirked as the women of the hour arrived.

"Why do you want me away from Eli?" She asked from behind Ali and Clare which made them both jump a mile high. They all stared at her awkwardly as she narrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"I'm not stupid you know." She said obviously angry. She then got upset, and she began to yell.

"Why can't you tell me Clare?" Clare jumped back a little at Lily's high tone. She then closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose before sighing and opening her eyes again.

"Clare, why do you want me to stay away from Eli? That's not fair. You trying to run my life for me if you won't even tell me why." She said in a harsh voice with a cold glare. "Let's go." Eli said as he grabbed Lily by her hand and dragged her outside to his car. They both got in and just sat there and looked at each other for a moment. She noticed how sad his eyes looked, and how good looking Eli really was to her. She began to blush at his stare. He chuckled, "Are you blushing Lily flower?" He asked. She then playfully hit him on the arm and sat further away from him.

"Awh come on, don't be like that Lily pad." He said with a huge smirk on his good looking face.

She gasped. "Oh stop it right now Elijah Goldsworthy! You are not funny." She said in a mocking tone, which made his smirk grow even bigger. "I guess my first confession should be about what happened a few months ago with Clare." He stated.

"At least four months ago, me and Clare were in a relationship." He paused to see her reaction. She looked disappointed? "We were happy, but then I guess I started acting weird, and she didn't like it, we started to fight a lot and she said she needed space." He paused to look at Lily. She just nodded. He sighed.

"I told her to meet me at our bench because we were supposed to go on a trip together. But she stood me up." He paused again to stop himself from getting emotional. "I called her, and told her that she basically ripped my heart out, and she broke up with me, and then told me she hated my hearse, so I hung up and crashed it." Lily gasped, but then a look of understanding etched throughout her features.

"I was in the hospital, she came to see me when it happened, but then she still broke up with me and then left to go back to the dance we were having at school." He turned so he could look Lily in the eyes, and she looked angry. "How the-" She stopped herself from speaking and shut her mouth.

"That's terrible, and I'm honestly sorry that happened to you Eli." She said sadly. He nodded, and then was surprised when Lily jumped into his arms and hugged him. He froze for a second from the sudden contact, but eventually melted into the hug. She felt so warm, and her small frame fit perfectly in his arms. He felt happy for a few seconds, until she regrettably pulled away.

She smiled. "I guess it's my turn yeah?" He smiled and nodded. "I don't trust people easily. It all started in London, about a year ago. His name was Dan." She paused to look at Eli. "He cheated on me, manipulated me, hurt me, hit me, and I trusted him so much, and he used it to his advantage." She watched as a look of horror flashed through Eli's eyes. She smiled and put her hand over top of his for reassurance.

"He drank, and did drugs a lot, but I loved him, well at least I thought I did." She paused for a second, knowing the tears were about to fall. "He hit me when I wouldn't comply to whatever he wanted. When I didn't want to have sex with him, he tried to make me, and I know it sounds stupid but after that, I haven't trusted another male." Eli felt angry at whoever this Dan person was. How could somebody treat Lily this way. One of the nicest people he knew, the most gorgeous, the most wonderful. He just didn't get it. He felt a twinge of sadness ping at his heart strings.

He suddenly grabbed onto her and held her in his arms, that was enough to make her cry into his chest. Lily felt stupid sitting in Eli's arms crying on him. It was Eli fucking Goldsworthy for Christs sakes. She quickly pulled away, and wiped the tears from her eyes. She looked at him, and said. "I'm sorry I ruined your shirt. I have to go now." She exclaimed while trying to open the door, but Eli was already in front of her opening the door.

"It's okay to cry Lily. I would never judge you." Eli said while grabbing onto Lily's smooth hands.

She sighed, and pulled her arms away from him. "You already have. Remember?" She asked with a small smile before walking back into Degrassi. Leaving Eli there feeling sad, and stupid.

Lily walked towards her media class while wiping access tears away. She felt stupid, and angry. She shouldn't have let herself get so free with emotion right there. This was the second time today she's let her emotions run wild. First at Clare, then at Eli. She went through her purse and pulled the orange pill bottle out of it. She sighed and popped one into her small mouth and swallowed. Soon she would feel good again.

She sighed and then stopped as she saw Drew standing with his back against her locker. She arched her eyebrow in confusion and then smiled.

"Locker stalking me are you now?" She asked cheekily.

"No, but I wanted to know why you were with Declan yesterday? Skipping?" He asked.

She sighed. "Does it even matter? I just met him yesterday. I was skipping and he wanted to. So there. Nothing happened Drew I promise!" She said sheepishly.

"Good, there better not be. I think of you like a little sister. You need me." He said with that confident and boyish smile he always had.

"I need you?" She asked and then gasped.

He laughed and walked away. "Ugh, the people here are just too weird." She said with a sigh.

She put her back against her locker and decided that school was just too boring for her. Something exciting needed to happen. Something big. She sighed and walked her ass to biology.

"Students, today we will be dissecting frogs." Mr. Jordan said triumphantly as he showed them a cage of live frogs hopping about.

Lily smirked. And it just kept growing as she thought about her plan.

"Sir, I do not believe that killing a live animal is right!" Lily exclaimed with full emotion.

"Well, sorry Ms. Evans but that's not up to you."
She groaned and watched as a teacher came into their classroom and pulled Mr. Jordan out.

She saw this as a chance, a chance to let the frogs roam free. She quickly stood up and made her way to the front of the room.

"Lily, what the hell are you doing!" Ali asked as she watched Lily grab the container of live frogs.

"What does it look like I'm doing?"
"Rebelling?" Ali asked with a smirk.

"Of course." Lily said as she flipped open the latch and heard the beautiful screams of the Degrassi students.

She quickly opened the classroom door and watched the frogs hop happily out of it.

"Ahh yes! Triumph!" Lily yelled as she stood on top of one of the desks.

"What is the meaning of this?" Mr. Jordan yelled through the room.

"Well sir." Lily started while hopping off the desk. "I didn't like the fact of poor and innocent frogs dying at the hands of our students. It's sick, and it's wrong." She paused and then laughed. "So I let them go."

"Go to the office!" He started. "NOW." He yelled. Lily smirked and swayed out of the classroom. She then heard screaming from the girls bathroom. Her smirk only grew wider as she thought of a frog hopping happily out of one of the toilets.

She then laughed sadistically when she saw a frog hopping out of Mrs. Oh's coffee.

"You did this didn't you?" A coffee faced Oh asked.

"Yes, yes I did." Lily answered proudly.

Mrs. Oh shifted from one foot to the other. "Well, good job." And with that she walked back into her classroom.

Lily sighed as she walked into principal Simpson's office.

"So, Lily Evans is it?" He asked.

"Yes sir. That is indeed my name." She boringly replied.

He groaned. "You've caused such a riot at this school since you started here." He paused and then asked. "Why?" She smiled. "Well sir, I like to make statements. Mr. Jordan wouldn't even listen to my opinion on not killing the frogs, and he didn't listen! So I decided to get my way." She replied.

He groaned again and then put her file in front of him. He started to rub his head. "I should suspend you."
"Then why don't you?" She replied sarcastically.

He sighed and then stood up from his chair. "Because Lily, that wouldn't look good." He sighed again. "Instead, you will apologize to everyone right now, on the afternoon announcements." She groaned but nodded. It wasn't the worst punishment so she decided what the hell.

"Here, just stand right here and say whatever you want in 5, 4, 3, 2, go." Sav said and then turned on the camera.

"Hello there students of Degrassi. My name is Lily Evans, and I would like to apologize for letting the frogs roam free throughout the school." She paused and then smirked. "Yes yes, it was me. I truly am sorry to Ms. Oh who had a frog jump out of her coffee. To the girls who seen frogs jump out of the toilet in the bathroom. And to all the boys who screamed like little girls when they seen a frog on the floor. Those boys being.

Drew Torres, Adam Torres, Declan Coyne, and-" She was cut off immediately by Sav.

"Alright and that's the afternoon announcements!" The camera was then cut off, and Sav started to chuckle,

"You're really great, you know that?" He said in between laughs.

"Bugger off." She said before walking out of the announcements room.

Eli laughed as Lily was cut off from her 'apology'. Adam was cracking up and so was pretty much everyone in school. Besides Drew of course who was really pissed off at Lily for telling the whole school that he screamed like a girl.

"Come on bro, it was just a frog, and you DID scream like a girl!" Adam said to his brother.

"Shut up and go back to reading your damn comic book." Drew replied and then put his head in his hands.

"Oh, he'll get over it!" Adam said to Eli.

Eli then began to think of Lily. How every time he was near her now, he wanted to kiss her. He felt weird. He wanted to be around her, but if he knew he did he would probably just go insane because he didn't deserve to be happy. Why should he? He killed his girlfriend, he messed things up with Clare. He just couldn't get his heart broken again. He was getting better, and he knew that, but he just couldn't do it. He didn't know what he'd do if he got his heart broken again.

"Lily, please look at me!" Clare yelled from across the hallway.
Lily sighed before turning around. "What?" She said coldly.
"I"m just looking out for you!" Clare said calmly standing in front of Lily.
Before Lily answered, an idea popped through her head. "You're jealous aren't you?" She asked.
Clare's face turned red and she rolled her eyes. "I am not jealous." She calmly stated.
Lily chuckled before leaning towards Clare's ear. "Who are you really trying to convince? Me? Or you?"
Clare then took a few steps back. "I'm not jealous." She replied again.
"Look Clare, I love being friends with you, but just admit it, you don't want anyone being close to Eli, when it was YOU who broke up with HIM." She exclaimed before backing up. "I will never understand this damn school." She muttered to herself before walking to Lunch.
