A/N--This is my first fic on here, so if it sucks, SORRY! Ha.um, I don't
own any of the characters sept for my own (Audrey, Lee, Mom, and Dad).
Right, enjoy!
Chapter 1-When I Saw You
First day at a new school. Great. It's not like I actually wanted to move away from New York City, but Daddy's company transferred him, and I'm supposed to be happy for him. And I am, don't get me wrong. Just, there goes my life and everything I used to know. And of all the places in the world they could've transferred Daddy to, like Paris, London, Hong Kong, Barcelona, they had to send him to Canada. It's cold in Canada. I mean really cold! I always knew I wasn't made for cold weather. But I could handle NYC. Not this, not again, not now.
So, I stepped out of the car, kissed my mom, and walked to the entrance of Degrassi Community School.
'Damn people can't even afford an actual high school.community school. Riiight. This should be a shit load of laughs,' I thought to myself, staring at the sign. A short, blonde haired girl ran into my arm, and knocked my messenger bag off of my shoulder. "Fuck."
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry," the girl said as she picked up my bag. She took one look at my Taking Back Sunday shirt, and stepped back cautiously. Guess she's not into the emo-punk scene. "Um.bye." she said as she backed herself up the stairs before turning to run through the doors. I slowly made my way up the stairs and walked leisurely to the office. It's my first day; I'm expected to be late.
"Last name, dear," the woman at the office asked.
"McGrath, Audrey," I replied. I thought there might be more than one McGrath, so I stated my first name.
"Here's your schedule, hun. First period has already started. We can get you your locker tomorrow, okay?"
"Yeah, okay," I said as I walked out of the office. I slowly walked down the halls and looked for room number 420 (A/N-Know it's not a real number, but I'm gonna have her have my schedule with the same room numbers). I found it, and knocked on the door. An older man answered the door, who I took to be Mr. Wheeler, my new French teacher.
"Yes, hello?" he said, as he looked at me.
"Hi, I'm new. This is my first period class I think," I said as I looked into the classroom. Sure enough, pictures of the Eiffel Tower hung around the room.
"Ah, yes, please come in, Miss," he said, ushering me into the room. "Class, this is.uh."
"Audrey McGrath," I finished for him.
"Yes, thank you. Please take a seat back there, by Mr. Mason," he said as he pointed to an empty seat to the right of a boy who looked like he wanted to be anywhere but here. He looked up at the sound of his name, and smiled at me. 'Oh boy,' I thought to myself as I walked to the back and sat down.
"Hey, I'm Spinner," the boy said when I sat down. 'Spinner,' I thought to myself, 'Wonder why they call him that.'
"Audrey," I said, and then sat back in my chair to learn the art of speaking French. Every once in a while, I would brush my black hair behind my ear, and my 3 ear pierces and 1 cartilage piercing were shown to this so- called Spinner. My jeans trailed onto the floor, past my Vans sneakers, and into ripped bottoms from walking around the city. I could feel his eyes on me, as I shifted uncomfortably in my seat.
Class ended, and I walked to my next class, English. Thankfully, so-called Spinner was not in that class. But there was someone oddly familiar that I did see. I knew I had seen him before, as if he was from a long ago dream. I stood at the door, pondering. The bell had rung, but I was waiting to make an entrance. Yet I couldn't pinpoint where I knew him from. Then it hit me. My old best friend, the boy who told me he loved me before I moved to New York when I was four. The boy who never heard the words back. And that boy was right there, sitting in jeans and a tee shirt and staring blankly at the front of the room.
Ms. Kwan proceeded to call role, and it officially clicked when I heard his name. "Sean Cameron."
"Here," he said, rather tiredly. I couldn't take my eyes off of the boy; I could remember so much now, now that I saw him again. I picked that moment to knock on the door to get myself noticed. Ms. Kwan answered, and again I was ushered into the room.
"Tell us a little bit about yourself," she said as she sat back in her desk.
"Sure," I said. And then I started. "My name's Audrey McGrath. I moved here from New York City, and I had lived there for most of my life, about 10 years to be exact. I'm 14, a niner I guess you'd call me. My dad had a job transfer to up here, and that's why I'm here. I like basketball, and running track and field. I have a dog, her name's Tanya. That's about it."
"Thank you very much, Audrey. Everyone, let's make Audrey feel welcome here at Degrassi." Everyone clapped and I smiled. Sean had a confused look on his face, the same face I probably had before I figured out where I knew him from.
I passed by him and some of his friends in the hall at the end of the day. I stopped, looked at him, standing without a care in the world. I took a deep breath and walked up to him.
"Hey boys," I said seductively. I soon focused my attention to Sean. I put my face right next to his, and my mouth was literally about an inch from his ear. "Once there was a little girl. She was sad because she had to move away. Her best friend came up to her, sat down and you know what that little boy did? He gave her his last Pooh band-aid, and told her he loved her and he would miss her. The little girl cried and then ran to her house. Well, that little girl wants to tell that little boy that she missed him." I pulled away and continued out of the school, towards the place that I was supposed to call home.
