Manny and Julie walked down the main hallway of Degrassi Community School, reading Julie's new schedule and making comments about the teachers. JT walked over with a goofy smile on his face and said, "Hello, Manny. You're looking quite lovely today. How are--" He stopped short when he caught sight of Julie. "And who is this? A newbie? It's very nice to meet you." He bowed.
Julie let out a small laugh. She turned to Manny and said, "I'll, uh, see you later." She laughed once more before walking away.
"So, Manny," JT began. "Who was that lovely-looking friend of yours?"
Manny made sure Julie was out of earshot before replying, "My cousin... she's staying with my family for a while."
"Why?" JT asked.
Manny shrugged. "I'm not really sure. My parents won't tell me. It's some big secret, I guess..."
"Hmm... oh well." A big smile spread across JT's face. "You said she's going to be here a while, right?"
"Don't even think about it," Manny said playfully.
"Too late," replied JT. He winked at Manny and walked away. Manny just smiled and then ran to catch up with Julie.

The bell rang to signal the start of another day of school at Degrassi. A few stragglers rushed into the Media Immersion Lab right before Mr. Simpson closed the door, muttering excuses and apologies.
JT leaned over in his seat and nudged Sean. "So what do you think of the new girl?" He motioned the Julie.
Sean stared for a second, and then replied, "I dunno. She seems sort of fake to me."
"Fake?" JT looked incredulously at Sean. "How?"
Sean shrugged. "Something about the way she smiles. I dunno."
JT shook his head. Julie was many things, but 'fake' was certainly not one of them. There was something about this girl that was so fascinating and irresistable. He wanted to sit down and talk to her for hours.
Mr. Simpson interrupted his thoughts of Julie when he called out JT's name. "Mr. Yorke, could you please at least pretend like you're paying attention?" Mr. Simpson sighed and continued with the lesson. JT pretended like he was paying attention, but really he was lost in his dreams of Julie.
