That night, all the news stations were talking about the gristly shooting at Degrassi. The school hadn't seen this type of violence since Rick Murray brought a gun to school and shot a fellow student. His own gun then killed Rick when another student struggled to release it from him.
Eli thought that that kid went about it the wrong way.
Late in the night, his cell phone went off. He saw it was Clare. It must have been about 1:30 in the morning. Clare is never up this late.
"Hey." She quietly said. "Can we talk?"
Mission accomplished.
