Hi! It's been like four months since I last updated! Hopefully I still got people interested in this story!

Just to let you guys know in the story it's the end of November and this chapter will be centered on Alli and Drew with some Eli and Clare of course and I will also be bringing in some new characters that you will recognize.

Alright I think I'm down talking. Enjoy this chapter!

Alli POV

"What time is it?" I asked excitedly as Clare paid for her lunch.

"It's 11:45"

"Not that time!"

"Wintertime?" she asked confusingly.

"Yes and what happens during the winter?"

"Please tell me you don't still believe in Santa, Alli."

"Santa is real, but that's not what I'm talking about." I paused to see if she was going to guess again, but she didn't. "It's basketball season which means there will be cheerleading tryouts soon" I said trailing off.

"Alli I'm not trying out for the cheer squad with you"

"Come on Clare! Please for me?" I begged as we sat at the lunch table.

"Alli, you know I have no rhythm and cheering has been something you always wanted to do since we were little."

She was right about me wanting to be a cheerleader since I saw the first Bring It On movie. I remember it like it was yesterday when Darcy, her sister, put the movie on one day to shut us up and just like that I wanted to be a cheerleader.

"Clare you do have rhythm and if I remember correctly Mrs. J said you're the best dancer she ever had and yes I always wanted to be a cheerleader, but I want you to do it with me! Please Clare?" I said as I snatched some of her chips off her plate while giving her the saddest face I could. I know she can't say no to me. I give her about five more-

"Fine I'll do it" she said with a small pout on her face.

"Yay, you're the best Clare and you won't regret it" I told her as I gave her hug and then took off running out the cafeteria to meet Drew by the lake. I thought I heard her call my name so I stopped and turned around to see if she was behind me but she wasn't. I pulled my hat and began to run again when I ran into someone very muscular and tall. I took a step back away from the person and began to apologize.

"I am so sorry. I wasn't paying attention where I was going. Please don't throw me in a dumpster or throw a slushy at me, I just brought this winter coat yesterday and it cost me a fortune so-"I was cut off by the two fingers he put on my lips.

"Wow, you talk a lot and it's all good. It's not every day a beautiful girl runs into me" the guy said causing me to blush. "My name is Owen and I'm a junior. What's your name, beauty?" he asked as he let his two fingers fall from my lips.

"M-my name is Alli and I'm a freshman"

"Alli hmm… that's a pretty name-"

"Alli" I heard Drew call me and I turned and saw him running through the snow.

"You know the loser?" Owen asked me.

"Yeah, he's my boyfriend" I said as Drew finally reached us.

"Hey Alli I was waiting by the lake waiting for you" he said as he put his arm around me and pulled me to his side while glaring at Owen.

"I bumped into Owen and I was saying I was sorry. Hope you weren't waiting long."

"Nah I wasn't, but let's get down to the lake before lunch is over." We started to walk away when Owen called my name.

"Alli" I turned and looked at him. "I'll see you later, ok" he winked before he walked into the Cafeteria building.

Me and Drew walked in silence to the frozen lake. When we reached the lake there was a picnic table with a picnic basket on it. I smiled at him and opened the picnic basket expecting to see food.

"Um, we're eating ice skates for lunch?" I asked him.

"No, I was actually going to teach you how to ice skate since it's something I like to do in the winter, but if you don't want to I-"I cut him off with a kiss.

"I would love to try something new"

"Cool" he said with a smile. We sat in a comfortable silence while putting on the skates. "Are you ready to go on the ice?" I nodded my head and wobble over to him.

He pulled me on to the ice and I felt like a little kid learning how to ride their bike without the training wheels.

"Just move your feet side to side" he instructed. I tried to do what he said but somehow I found myself almost in the splits and heading towards a pile of sticks.

"Drew, help me!" I screamed. There's nothing for me to grab onto to stop me from falling into those sticks when suddenly to arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me backwards causing me to lose balance and fall on Drew. We sat on the ice for a few minutes before he broke the silence.

"So we're going to have to work on this for a while, huh?" he said with a smile on his face.

"Yeah can we try again tonight?" I asked.

"I can't I have practice tonight"

"Oh" I said starting to feel sad.

"But, we can still come out here at lunch"

"Ok, well we need to get our shoes back on, class should be starting soon." He didn't want to agree but he did and he pulled me back to picnic table.

"Hi Drew" I heard a girl call out to him as we walked hand in hand to my next class.

"Oh, hi Katie. What's up?"

"Nothing much I was just wondering since we had the same class that we could you know walk together." She said with a huge smile on her face and it wasn't just big it was also creepy.

"Sorry I'm walking Alli to her class maybe another time" he said before we walked away I smiled at her when we passed her.

"Who was that?"

"That was Katie the head cheerleader"

'Oh crap she was the head cheerleader! Well there goes my chance at being a cheerleader'

"Well since she's the head cheerleader I guess I'll be wasting my time going to try out tomorrow"

"She's the head cheerleader not the coach, Alli." He said as we stopped in front of my class.

"So you think I should still try out?"

"Totally, well I got to get to class I'll see you when I get home, ok" he gave me a little kiss before walking away. I turned to walk in the class when I saw Eli devouring Clare's face.

"Ok you two break it up" I said while pulling Clare away from Eli and into the room.

"Alright class today I will be discussing what will be going on at school in two weeks." The class moaned. "Shush and just listen. In two weeks our basketball team will have their first game and do you know what that means?" Nobody answered. "That means that in two weeks it'll be game week and during game week we play different kinds of games every day and all day it's one of the favorite traditions at Degrassi. Then two weeks later right after Christmas we will have our spirit week which will lead up to the homecoming dance."

I raised my hand.

"Yes Alli?"

"Why didn't we have a spirit week and homecoming dance during football season?" I asked and a lot of people murmured in agreement with me.

"The head mistress said that Degrassi should not be cliché like other schools so we do different things or do them at a later time in the year"

"Oh" the entire class said and then there was a knock at the door.

"Clare, Drew is teaching me how to ice skate" she looked at me with wide eyes.

"I'm surprised you didn't tell him about the pants incident"

"We will not speak about that" I hissed before Mrs. Lost put a folded piece of paper on my desk and walked away. I looked at Clare and she just shrugged her shoulders. I opened the paper and it said:

If you know what's good for you Bhandork you will leave Drew alone.

Katie

'Oh I'm definitely going to try outs tomorrow!' I thought to myself.

So how was this for a comeback…yeah it wasn't really funny but it will be in the next chapter, but for now just review and tell me what you though

Oh and one more thing I need some suggestions on some music to listen to and I pretty much listen to anything so tell me what some artists, rappers or bands that are good!
