Chapter 1- Uptown Girl
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Spinner! I don't think I can do this! What if everyone hates me?" Martinae Garron said as she walked up the steps to her first day as a grade 9 at Degrassi Community School.
"Marti, you'll be fine and no one's going to hate you! Come on I'll introduce you to some people." The two walked over to a group of people, who were to busy pushing each other and joking around to notice them. "Hey guys I'd like you to meet my cousin Martinae Garron, she just transferred here. Marti, that's Jimmy, Marco, Ellie, Paige, Hazel, and Terri," they all waved as their names were said, "And.wait.where's Craig?"
The guy named Jimmy answered, "Oh he forgot something in his locker so he said he'd meet up with us in homeroom." Martinae wondered who exactly this Craig guy was and was about to ask when the bell for homeroom rang. Kids were rushing around trying to get to their classrooms so they weren't late, but Martinae just took her time. She was in no rush to face a room full of strangers. When she finally got to the right room the only seat left was in between two guys. One looked kind of tough, his name was Sean, the other was about her height and seemed pretty cool, his name was JT. She talked to the two of them and found out that they had every class together, except photography club. It looked like she'd be all-alone for that one.or so she thought. Martinae's morning classes flew by, and soon she found herself sitting by herself at lunch.
"Hey, mind if we sit here?" Martinae looked up to see who was speaking; she recognized them as Ellie and Marco. She threw her bags on the floor so they could sit. After talking to them for most of lunch, and deciding they were both really cool, she decided she'd better head to photography club. When she finally found the room, she realized she was the first one there. Deciding to make herself more comfortable (after all she wasn't trying to impress anyone.right?) she pulled her waist-length auburn hair into a messy bun and took out her brown contacts replacing them with her cat-eye glasses, showing her pale green/gray eyes. She noticed she was still alone so she put her head in her hands and started singing "Perfect" by A Simple Plan. She was so lost in the song, that she didn't notice the guy with shaggy brown hair sit down next to her, until she heard him clear his throat.
"OH MY GODDESS! I'm so sorry I didn't realize there was someone else in here! I must've sounded really shitty."
"No, from what I heard you sound good, you must be the new grade 9.Spinner's cuz. I'm Craig Manning." He stuck out his hand for her to shake.
"Martinae Garron, but my friends, well Spinner and Kendra, call me Marti." She was a little hesitant but then she shook his hand while thinking to herself "Hmmm.so this is the Craig Spin was talking about. He's not too bad looking. Ok, who am I kidding? HE'S HOTT! Ellie and Marco seem really cool, so do JT and Sean.but Craig is HOTT! Eh, that doesn't matter her wouldn't like me anyway. But still this year might not be so bad after all."
