"Ok class, I want you to pair up and create your own report on any topic you'd like. I want you to go all out, interviews, pictures, the whole nine yards." Ms. S, my journalism teacher explained. The class immediately started pairing off, but of course me, being the new girl had no one to run to.

"Anyone not have a partner?" Ms. S asked. A girl with dark clothing and red hair and I raised our hands. "Oh good, Ellie partner up with Adrianna, I'm excited to see what you two come up with."

I walked over to Ellie, setting my stuff down.

"Hey, I'm Adrianna, but you can call me Ade." I stated holding out my hand.

"Ellie," She said taking it. "You new here?" She asked, letting go.

"Uh, yeah, it's my first day actually."

"Really? How's it going so far?"

"Interesting." I replied honestly, laughing. Ellie let out a chuckle,

"Yeah, I think that sums up Degrassi pretty well."

"So do you have any idea what you want to do this report on?" I asked. She just shook her head.

"No idea actually."

"Ok good, it's not just me then." We sat in silence for moment thinking about what we wanted to write about.

"I love your shirt by the way." Ellie complimented. "Every Avenue's really good."

"You know Every Avenue?" I asked shocked. She nodded back. "Not most people know of them."

"Yeah, I know. Finding people here with the same music taste as me is pretty difficult." I thought for a moment before an idea finally hit me.

"That's it."

"What's what?" Ellie asked confused.

"Our report, we'll do music reviews. Go to shows, see the bands perform, interview them." I pitched.

"That may just be the most amazing idea I've heard in awhile!" Ellie exclaimed. I smiled, proud of myself.

"Ok, well we'll go home tonight and look at concerts coming up. And remember, small bands work well too. And we could maybe meet up tomorrow at lunch to exchange?" Ellie offered. I agreed as the bell rang and left to go to my last class. I look down at my schedule…SHOP?

"No sir, you don't understand. I didn't sign up for this class." I tried explaining to the shop teacher.

"I understand perfectly Ms. Peirce. All the other classes were full, so they gave you the only empty one. So welcome to Auto Shop!" He replied, starting to steer away.

"I don't even know anything about cars!" I exclaimed.

"Well then you better start learning." He yelled back, not bothering to turn around.

"Fuck" I mumbled, looking at all the parts in front of me and the book in my hand. I dropped my stuff and got started reading.

Sean's POV

"Cam, look who's here." I heard Jay say as I was under the hood of a car. I looked in the direction he was talking about and noticed the girl from earlier.

"What's the freak doing here?" Alex asked, wrapping her arms around Jay from behind. I looked at the new girl's distressed face, as Alex and Jay laughed.

"She has no idea what she's doing." Jay chuckled. I put my wrench down and grabbed a rag as I walked over to her.

Ade's POV

"Looks like you could use a little help." I heard from behind me as I tried to study. I turned around and saw none other than Sean Cameron, in a wife beater trying to wipe grease from his hands.

"Go away Cameron." I stated bluntly, turning back to my book.

"Oh, ok, well you know my name. And yours may be?" He asked leaning on the table next to me. I stayed silent, trying to ignore the muscles that I saw in his arms. "Aw, come on. It's only fair." He pleaded. I rolled my eyes, finally looking up at him. I immediately regretted it once realizing how close to me he actually was.

"Adrianna Peirce." I said, and quickly looking back down at my book.

"Well Adrianna, it looks like you could use some help."

"I don't want your help."

"You may not want it, but you need it." He said, smirking down at me.

"Whatever. Just go away."

"Fine," he said, starting to move away. "But find me when you want that help." He finished, returning back to Jay. I just looked after him rolling my eyes, before going back to try studying. Try being the key word.

I looked around the lunchroom the next day, searching for Ellie. I found her sitting at a table toward the back of the lunchroom, and starting walking over towards her.

"Ade, where are you going?" Emma asked.

"Oh, I'm sitting with a friend. See you later." I quickly said, walking the rest of the way to Ellie's table.

"Hey Ellie." I said once there.

"Oh hey Ade. Here sit," I sat down next to her. "This is Ashley, Ash this is Ade."

"Hey." I said, giving her the nod.

"Hey." She replied smiling.

"So, what do you have?" Ellie asked.

"Well, there's this place apparently they let bands play there to get their music out. It's called "Blue". It's actually not too far from here. I called and told them about our report and they said it was a great idea and they'd have no problem helping us with it." I explained.

"Ade, I think I may just be in love with you." Ellie shrieked. Ash and I laughed, and for the rest of lunch talked not only about ideas but they took the chance to get to know me.

"Adrianna." I heard from behind me as I walked to Biology. I stopped, turning around, and was face to face with Sean. I quickly turned back away, continuing to my class. "Whoa, where are you going?"

"Class. You should try it." I said curtly.

"Haha. So can I ask you a question?" He asked no side by side with me.

"No. Go away." Suddenly he was in front of me not allowing me to leave. "Move Cameron."

"I will after you answer my question. " He stated folding is arms. "You wanna come to the Ravine tonight?"

"The what?"

"The Ravine. It's a place in the woods we go to hang out and stuff."

"Stuff like get wasted and have sex?" I asked, already knowing the answer. "Sorry, but I can't." Starting to move past him, he started following.

"Why not?"

"Because I already have plans."

"Oh really? Who's the guy?"

"Who said it was with a guy?"

"Ok then, who's the girl?" I just glared at him. "Hey, I had to check. So then why are you turning me down?" He asked. Now we were right outside my class but he wouldn't let me enter.

"Because I have Community Service. Now move." I answered, pushing him out of the way. I felt him looking after me but I didn't even bother looking back.

By the time shop rolled around I was ready for school to be over with. I dragged my feet into the room, sighing in aggravation at the sight of the work I have to do.

Sean's POV

I saw Adrianna drag herself into the class, obviously not happy about being here. I saw the way that when she sighed her bangs flew off of her face and back down in a jumbled heap, how she bit her lip when frustrated or when she's concentrating.

"Dude, you're staring…again." Jay said, snapping my out of my thoughts. I looked away from Adrianna and back down at the engine of the car. "What's you obsession with her?" Jay asked.

"It's not an obsession." I replied defensively. "But, I don't know. She's…different."

"She seems like another goodie to me." Alex said.

"But see she's not. I talked to her today. She said she had community service today."

"Community Service? Like the kind you get instead of going to jail?" Jay asked.

"I guess. What else could it be?" We all stared at her curiously; she must have sensed something because she looked up at us, looking at us weirdly before smirking and flipping us off. She went back to what she was doing as we all laughed silently.

"Looks like the new girl has a secret." Jay stated, wonder dancing behind his eyes.
