Adam walked down the hall flipping threw the pages in his binder as he saw Drew talking with Imogen in the announcements room. Adam looked at them through the glass walls and leaned against the entrance. "Imogen I agreed to this Degrassi TV and now you don't even want to be the subject."
"I'm more of a behind the camera person. You know producing."
"Imogen you need to find people to anchor."
"Ok I'll hold auditions at lunch."
"I'll do it." They both looked to see Adam standing there. Drew smiled and pointed at his brother. Imogen looked away. "See perfect. Adam was on the radio last year."
"I don't think that's—"
"Imogen he's perfect for it. I'm president and I rule that it stands."
"Ok but, he is going to be all alone and it's going to awkward."
"Well then find him a co anchor."
"Drew—"
"Imogen you said you were holding auditions." Drew smiled and moved to the door. "You'll figure it out or there's no Degrassi TV." Imogen rolled her eyes. "Why are you so negative toward me?" Imogen stayed quiet and messed with the camera. Adam just huffed. "Ok well I'll be back at lunch to audition with the co anchors." Imogen nodded as Adam backed out of the room to bump someone over knocking all their papers out of their hands. "Oh I'm so sorry!" Adam said as he bent down to start picking up the papers. He looked at the person he bumped into. Becky was looking back at him as she picked up papers. "Becky…"
"It's ok Adam." She giggled. The finished picking up the papers and stood up. "I didn't see you this morning at your locker. I mean not that I camp out at it waiting for you but I didn't see you. Oh here." Adam handed Becky her papers. "Thanks." She moved her hair away from her face with her index finger. "I was talking to Dallas this morning about something." Adam looked a little shocked. "Adam don't worry were just friends." Adams face relaxed. "Are you busy during lunch?"
"No but—"
"Good come audition for Degrassi TV."
"But—"
"You can co anchor with me." Becky smiled and shook her head in amazement at Adam's perseverance. "Ok." Adam smiled. "Sweet. See you then."
Adam walked into the media room and sat down at the booth. Imogen was messing with the camera when Adam walked past her. "Did you find people for auditions?" Imogen asked. "Just one."
"Who?" Just then Becky knocked on the door. "Hi…" Adam smiled, as Imogen grew panicked. "Oh Becky." Imogen said awkwardly as Adam and Becky continued to smile at each other. She motioned for Becky to sit next to Adam. "Sit next to Adam so I can frame the both of you. Becky complied. "Ok I guess just play off of each other and will see how you fit together. Becky nodded as Adam just looked at Becky with a smile. "Adam?" Adam snapped out of his trans, "Right ok. Ready?" Imogen nodded putting her head phones on. "Three two one…" She pointed at the both of them to start. "Hey there fellow Degrassians I'm Adam Torres and sitting next to me is my lovely co anchor Becky Baker. We will be coming to you guys live every day at lunch to give you all the low down."
"Exactly, will be covering all the current events that are going on this year including dances, rallies, extra curricular activities and sports."
"What would you know about sports Becky?" Adam said in a joking tone. "More than you know Mr. Torres."
"Ah a well rounded girl I like it." Adam and Becky were laughing together and looking into each other's eyes. "Guys!" Imogen yelled at them from behind the camera. "Right…anyway that's all for now tune in tomorrow where we will cover the story on student council."
"There's money to be spent but what should it be spent on?"
"Thanks for tuning in Degrassi I'm Adam Torres."
"And I'm Becky Baker signing off." They both smiled and played in there spinning chairs as Imogen called cut. "Great." Imogen said dryly. "So I think it went great. Imogen?"
"Yeah, I guess you'll be anchoring together." Becky smiled widely. "Awesome." She got up and collected her bag before exiting. "Hey Becky wait up." Becky stopped and turned around to face Adam. "So…" Becky looked at Adam in question waiting for him to continue. "Adam spit it out."
"Look I really miss you. Well I miss us…"
"Adam—"
"Ok I know that things have been super weird. This summer started off great and hit a bump and that changed everything. I know things are different now but maybe it's a good thing."
"Adam you were addicted to drugs."
"I know but, I've been going to extra meeting to talk about it and I haven't used since the dance. By the way I'm still sorry for ruining your shirt." Becky laughed in memory of the disaster. "Its ok."
"I just needed time to get back on my feet that's all. I had to figure out that it wasn't just you all the time in my brain. It needs to be balanced out with life. I'm finally somewhere good now in my life and I know what I want…I want you to be apart of it." Becky smiled at Adam. "You don't have to answer me today or even tomorrow for that matter but—" Becky silenced Adam with a kiss. He was caught off guard but soon relaxed into it by putting his hands onto her hips. When the pulled apart Becky laughed. "I love you Adam Torres. We've been through so much it would suck to throw it down the drain. I think that God put us through all theses horrible situations so we could come out stronger." Adam smiled and leaned back in kissing her. "I love you too." Becky and Adam smiled as they stood there. Students passed by but to them they felt like the only two people in the world. "So you've asked me to be your boyfriend before I only think it's fair that I ask you this time." Becky laughed and leaned into Adam. "Becky Baker do you want to be girlfriend." Becky giggled and shrugged her shoulders. "Sure why not." She put her hands around Adam's neck as they indulged in a kiss. The bell ringing caused them to separate. "I have no idea what I would do without you in my life." Adam flashed back to when Annie had showed him his funeral with Becky crying hysterically telling him goodbye. When he snapped out of it he just looked deep into Becky's eyes. "You will never have to find out. I single handedly promise you that I will make this the best year yet. But, it's Degrassi so there's bound to be drama with people." Becky just smiled. Right now she was the happiest girl in the world. "I need to get to class but I'll come over after school. Adam nodded as Becky turned to walk away from him. He watched as she gave him one last smile and turned the corner. "You haven't told her yet have you?" Adam shattered out of his happy state turned to see Imogen. "What?"
"About us this summer." Adam swallowed hard. "Imogen what happened this summer was an accident."
"Well I can't work with the both of you. Do you know how awkward that is?"
"Just don't tell her ok?"
"Adam do you know how hard it is for me to keep a secret? The guilt eats away at me."
"Well find a way not to say anything." Adam walked off leaving Imogen to stand there in discomfort. Degrassi always had a way of messing things up for everyone.
