A/N: this chapter starts where the previous one was left off...
Regarding Paige... she does seem to me like the type that gets easily scared...
even though she pretends to be tougher.
so excuse me if you don't agree with my views.Enjoy the chapter.
Pov: Paige
Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi or any of its characters, just this fic.

Chapter 26: Bad Timing
"Okay… I've heard... that …"
Marco paused to take a breath and looked around,
Making sure that no one else was listening…
Before he continued…
almost whispering...
"She was suspended from her previous school…
Because she'd almost given a boy, a heart attack.
Breaking noses,
Causing people to end up in the emergency room…
Is no big deal to her…"
He paused again…
Looking around once again…
"… Second period…
She hurt Emma Nelson pretty bad…"
Hazel and I were in a shock…
Our eyes wide open with disbelief…
This wasn't happening…
Not here…
Not at Degrassi…
"How bad?
Is she in the hosp…?"
I couldn't finish my sentence…
Suspecting the worst but still asked…
"No… she's still at school…
It was their gym class and Ms. H was there…
That's what saved Emma…
Otherwise…"
He'd paused again for added dramatic effect
"Just stay out of her way, okay?"
Both Hazel and I had nodded in affirmation.
I'd already argued with Alex twice since yesterday…
What was I thinking…?
--------------
Fifth period was Math…
I saw her as soon as I entered the room…
Sitting at the very back…
…Behind Ellie…
Of course, I pretended
that I didn't know she was in my class.
She saw us come in and
Said something to Ellie
That made Ellie smile.
I just knew they were talking about me…
And the thought made me very self conscious.
Was she the bad-ass that every one was so scared of?
One who was physically capable of hurting people?
And could cause you to end up in a hospital?
I didn't doubt Marco's info though…
His sources were good and authentic…
And I trusted them.
There was no other option.
I just had to avoid confrontations with her…
-------------
So she'd made a friend…
We all saw as they left math class together…
Ellie was leading the way…
And Alex followed her out…
Marco, Hazel, Spinner, Jimmy and I…
All exited the room a little behind them…
As we all walked to the organic Chemistry class,
We saw 'them' entering it as well…
She was Ellie's lab partner…
During the lab Ellie said something to her…
And they both giggled…
I don't know why I always despised Ellie before…
Even though she was friends with Marco,
I never gave her a chance.
And to make matters worst…
Marco and Ellie recently had an argument and
They weren't talking to each other …
Talk about bad timing.
