Disclaimer- I do not own anything or anybody from Degrassi. I am, however, the proud owner of Marisa, Derek, Cone, and Steve.
A/N: I know I said there would be a wait, but I wrote out a quick chapter for you guys. There will, however, be a wait after this chapter. But I do hope you all like this chapter though, you can consider it a short filler. Oh, and I actually have over 100 reviews. (does happy dance) I love you guys SO much, thank you all for reading and reviewing.
To my reviewers-
just-nikki- We'll I'm sure we could find a way to share Orlando, or I could just secretly elf-nap him. YaY!! Hey, a girl can dream. Moving forward... yay, I got a 'fabulous' weeeeee, that made my day. And sorry about the ending, at first I was actually going to end the chapter sooner but decided against that and continued. Hehe, I liked the ending though; guess it's because I know what's going to happen, lol. (insert evil laugh here) You'll just have to keep reading. Happy Belated Birthday!!!!! Hope you had enough sugar, sugar highs are awesome. And I wouldn't mind you taking over the world, lol. I could see you making improvements, like more Marco and Dylan time, YAY!!! Well, I hope you like this chapter too!!!!
keeponwritin- Yes, well, I kinda molded Spinner to act as I needed him to. I'll try to fix him up a bit, but I warn you he will be OOC. Other than that, I'm glad you like it so far. As for the cutting thing, you're right, and it's a totally different type of situation. Also, this fic will really have Marco as the center. Ah, yes, as to where I'm going with this- I have many ideas in my head. (insert evil laugh here) Hope you keep reading it, and that you like it.
Isdule07- A Mr. Cone, eh? Interesting, lol. OOC- Out Of Character and AU- Alternate Universe. (Incase you still don't know) Don't worry about them though, took me a while before I figured out the meanings. And I see nothing wrong with Scooby Doo 2, their taste in movies are fine. Hehe, oh well, that was a movie I had seen at the time and it was the first movie that came to mind. As for Marisa, I was actually just thinking about her being in school or not. And I was thinking about a movie I saw recently, 'Mambo Italiano,' and it's about an Italian family with a gay son. And it explained how a son or daughter really wouldn't move out until they married. So I figured, since Marco's family is a traditional Italian family, that I'd have Marisa out of school and with a job but she won't move out until she marries. (insert evil laugh here) Yes, I am cruel to poor Marco, mwuhahaha. But he has his friends and boyfriend now, but it also depends if his new friends will accept his sexual orientation. Dun Dun Dun, I am so cruel. Well, we shall soon see. YES, Lets kick them with Ellie's boots, and I'm sure your boots are awesome too. Ignore those 'certain people,' they're just jealous. Hope you continue to read and like my story. And as for your request, I have to stored until the next chapter. Thanks for the idea.
degrassicutie1- I'm glad you liked it!!! 'It's Raining Men' was an awesome episode!!! That music is really annoying, I don't understand why they keep using it though. Oh well, I hope you like this chapter too.
Towenaar- Well, I'll just have to hope that you learn to like my story a bit more. But I am glad that you think the cutting is realistic, that means a lot. As for Spinner and the guys, they might not beat him up but you'll just have to keep reading to see what does happen.
Sixela555- YaY!! I got a 'WOW' that's so awesome, makes me all happy. I so glad that you like my story that much, and you even think it's worth the wait. YaY!!! Hope you like this chapter too!!
Kat- THANK YOU!! I'm so glad that you like my writing and the last chapter! As for Marco's old friends they will definitely get what they deserve. (insert evil laugh here) But thanks for the hockey team idea, I'll have to put that away for now. Oh, and as for the cutting I'm still working on this idea, but there are still some bugs I need to work out to make the scene flow. And of course Dylan will be loving about it, Marco just needs to understand that. Summer homework does suck, I know I have to do it but I'm too bored to. (If that makes any sense.) But snaps for being my oldest fan, yay!!! Thank you so much!!! Hope you like this chapter too. Also, I'll try to email you when I get back.
VixenDragon16- Yay! You love it!!! That's so awesome. I SO glad!!! It makes me so happy that you think I'm a "wonderfully great writer." Hope you continue to like my story, and hope you like this chapter too. And it doesn't cost anything to sign up and write stories, so I look forward to any stories you write.
Chapter 13
-----
When Dylan got home he couldn't wipe the smile off his face, even if he wanted to. Just thinking about Marco caused his heart to flutter; he'd never felt this way about anybody else before. Dylan couldn't even begin to describe how wonderful Marco was, inside and out. While Dylan went over the night's events in his head, he failed to notice his sister walking into his room.
"So?" Paige asked as if it was an obvious question.
Dylan looked up surprised, he hadn't seen her come in.
"So, what?" Dylan repeated, feigning confusion.
Paige rolled her eyes and replied, "You know what I'm talking about. Now tell me how your date was."
"It wasn't a date, we were just hanging out," Dylan shrugged, but Paige could see the sparkle in his eyes.
"Just tell me what happened," Paige demanded with her hands on her hips.
"What makes you so sure something happened?" Dylan asked, not fazed by the glare she sent his way.
"Fine, have it your way," Paige said as she started towards the door, "I'll just call up Marco and asked him why you're all smiles and giggles."
Dylan jumped up and grabbed her elbow, successfully turning her around. "That won't be necessary," he explained as he guided her away from the door.
"Well, start talking," Paige told her brother while looking him straight in the eye.
Dylan sighed and, in brief details, describe the night he had had with Marco. He told her everything from the pizza to the goodnight kiss. When Dylan finished, the only thing he could hear was his sister's squeal.
"That is the cutest thing I've ever heard. I told you he liked you, I'm so good at this" Paige sighed in delight.
"Will you stop that? Honestly, you sound like a pig," Dylan told her while covering his ears.
Paige glared at her brother before smacking him in the back of his head. "Don't change the subject," she scolded.
"Now, you guys are officially a couple," she squealed again, completely ignoring Dylan.
"Fine, you got what you wanted. Can I get some sleep now?" Dylan pleaded, desperate to get Paige out of his room.
"Whatever," she said as she walked back to the door and walked out.
Paige then stuck her head back in for the last word, "I'll just let you get back to your dreams of Marco." Dylan then threw his pillow at her, but it ended up only hitting the closed door.
He collapsed unto his bed after his sister left, but he could still hear her giggle down the hall.
-----
After Marco woke up the next day, he couldn't help thinking about how his family had to deal with everything too. They were always so great to him, and he had caused them so much heart ache. He remember when he used to come home after being beaten by his old friends. He could still hear his mother's cries as his father cursed out anything he could think of. His family had seen him at his worse and were always there for him no matter what. Marco could even recall a time where his classmates had actually attacked his house.
--Flashback--
Marco sat in the bathroom with an ice pack on his eye. He let his head hit the wall as he thought about how his attackers had been his friends once. Unfortunately, all that was just a memory. Now, Marco didn't have any friends at all, and his entire school hated him.
That's when he heard the scream from downstairs. Marco dropped the ice pack and ran from the bathroom as fast as he could. When he reached the kitchen he could see a brick laying on the floor covered in broken glass. He looked up to see the shattered hole displayed in the window above the sink.
"Ma?" Marco asked walking up to his mother who was sitting in a chair with tears rolling down her face.
Marisa touched his shoulder as she handed him a crumpled piece of paper. He hesitantly took it and read the words written hatefully on the paper:
'Die FAG'
Marco blinked back his tears as he looked back up at his sister and asked, "Where's pa?"
Marisa sent him a small smile and told him, "He ran out the door to catch the jerks. It's safe to say they all screamed like girls and ran for the hills."
Marco let himself smile at the image of his father running after a couple of screaming boys.
At that moment their father came back in the house. "I gave those punks a piece of my mind," he hissed out the words.
He walked up to his son and comfortingly hugging him. "Don't worry about those rats anymore, you'll never have to see them again," he reassured Marco.
Marco looked up at his father confused and asked, "What do you mean?"
His mother choice that time to speak up, "Your father and I decided last night that we're moving."
Marisa smiled at her brother's shocked face as he stuttered, "R-r-really?"
His mother walked up to him and kissed his cheek as she explained, "We don't want to see you get hurt anymore, and we decided that starting over is the best thing we could do for you. A new life with good friends is exactly what you need."
"Are you sure you all want this? You shouldn't have to give up your lives for me," Marco replied, he didn't want to ruin his families lives just because he abnormal to his school.
"You are our lives, sweetie," his mother explained.
"If you're not happy here, than neither am I, little brother," Marisa said giving him a smile.
"What about your jobs?" Marco asked, worried.
"You don't have to worry about that," his father dismissed, "I talked to my boss yesterday and he transferred me to a place in Canada."
"Yeah, and I got tired of working in that video store anyway," Marisa explained, "the scary movie section always used to freaked me out."
Marco remembered how happy he had been at that moment. His entire family had made it possible for him to start over. They were giving him the chance to make true friends, and a chance at a happy life.
--End Flashback--
Marco smiled at the memory. It was one of the few happy memories he had that happened after he had been forced out of the closest. But here, in Degrassi, he was creating new memories. Speaking of which, most of them now included a very important and wonderful blonde.
Then, while thinking of Dylan, Marco got dressed and ready for school. He grabbed a piece of toast from his mother, and was off to school.
He only had one thought going through his head, Today is going to be a good day.
