-Lyssa comes back from Emma-
(Sean is sitting at the table with a math book at his side.)
Lyssa: (approaching quietly) Math… my favorite subject.
Sean: (jumps in his seat and whispers) You scared me!
Lyssa: (shrugs and giggles) Oops!
Sean: Hey, (pulls Lyssa onto his lap) are you any good?
Lyssa: (looks at the worksheet Sean is looking at) Well, if A equals 3 and B equals 4…(does the math on a piece of paper) Then C equals 5. (Lyssa smiles and gets up and walks to her room.)
Sean: How does she do that?
(Sean looked at what Lyssa did and did the same to the other problems. Then he walked to his room.)
Sean: Hey, you excited about your first day?
Lyssa: Sure. Going to school is what I like to do on my spare time. (Lyssa winked at Sean, who smiled.) Sean, can I ask your opinion about my first day outfit I picked out?
Sean: (smiles wide) Sure.
(Lyssa walked into the bathroom and came out in a black plaid skirt, white shirt with a black pull over vest, and knee high socks. Her hair is in pigtails and she has a lollipop in her mouth. Sean's eyes widen.)
Lyssa: Well, Mr. Cameron, what do think?
Sean: I-I… uh…
(The phone rings and Lyssa answers it.)
Lyssa: Cameron residence. Oh… hey Jay, Sean is right here if- oh. That's so sweet. Yeah… tomorrow would be great. Talk to then. Yeah. I'm sorry about that. Well, then she doesn't deserve you. Okay. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Bye.
Sean: Why didn't Jay want to talk to me?
Lyssa: Cause he wanted to ask me out to a movie. (Sean looked at her funny. Jay had a girlfriend, right?) Sydney broke up with him. He needed to talk to someone who wasn't close to him.
Sean: (a little jealous) So, do you like Jay?
Lyssa: He's cute if that's what you mean.
Sean: No, I mean… would you ever actually consider being more than friends with him?
Lyssa: (walks over and puts her arms around Sean's neck) Don't worry about it… Remember, I have an eye on you. (Lyssa kissed Sean on the nose.) Plus, it shouldn't matter even if I did.
Sean: Uh, your outfit by the way doesn't suit you.
Lyssa: (takes lollipop out of mouth, steps back, and gives it a good long lick with her tongue.) That's okay. I wasn't gonna wear it to school anyways.
Sean: Then why did you say-
Lyssa: Well, I figured that if you liked it then any guy like you would think the same thing.
Sean: Oh.
Lyssa: Well, I'm gonna change and get some sleep.
-The next day at school-
(Sean and Lyssa got a ride with Jay, Alex, and Sydney.)
Sean: So what classes do you have?
Lyssa: I have MI Lab.
Jay: I have a funny story to tell you at lunch. Remind me, kay?
Lyssa: Deal. I'm gonna go to my locker. (Looks at Sean then Jay) Walk me?
Sean and Jay: Sure. (Sean and Jay look at each other long and hard while Alex and Sydney roll their eyes and head up the steps to Degrassi Community School.)
Lyssa: Coming?
(Lyssa walks up the door and Jay and Sean walk behind her.)
-MI Lab-
Simpson: We have a new student with us her name is Alyssa McDaniels.
Lyssa: Lyssa. Call me Lyssa.
Simpson: Why don't you tell us something about yourself?
Lyssa: I live with my brother, Sam. I love basketball. I love David Beckham of Manchester United, he's a soccer player. Um…I don't like to dress girli and if I have a problem with something or someone, I'll share my opinion.
Simpson: Okay, take a seat next to Paige.
(Paige raised her and Lyssa sat next to her. Paige looked at Lyssa and smiled.)
Paige: (thinks to herself) Make over.
Lyssa: Hey.
Paige: Hey.
Simpson: Sean, would like to start us off with your presentation? Lyssa, you can skip this assignment. It's not worth much since it's only 2 months till school is out.
-Lunch-
Jay: Lyssa, over here!
(Lyssa walked in the lunch with Paige, Hazel, Ashley, Ellie, Craig, Spinner, and Jimmy.)
Lyssa: I'll be right back. (Walks over to where Jay, Sean, and Alex are sitting.) What's up?
Sean: What's up? Are you kidding me? You're walking in with Paige Michelchuk!
Lyssa: Okay. I'm done with you already. (Rolls her eyes and has her attention towards Jay) What did you want? (She says this sweetly.)
Jay: You wanna sit with us?
Lyssa: Paige made me promise to sit with her. Tomorrow I promise.
(After Lyssa walks back over and sits with Paige and her friends, Alex looks at the two boys who are drooling over the tomboy.)
Alex: So which one of you is asking Sassy to the Semi-Formals?
Sean and Jay: Me. (look at one another) I am.
Alex: Jay, you should go with Sydney. Sean, you should go with me.
Sean: Thanks but no thanks.
Alex: Well, when she turns you down, I'm here for you. (Alex gets up and walks away)
-Over at Paige's table-
Lyssa: … well, I'm glad that you two are at least on some point of talking. (Lyssa was referring to the "Manny incident".)
Craig: Me too.
Ashley: Sure. I'm just glad you're here.
Paige: I can't believe it took me forever to remember you from so long ago.
Lyssa: So what is the big event this year?
Paige: Semi-Formal!
Lyssa: (Sarcastically) Oh yeah.
Paige: How about you come over to my house and I'll give you a girli make over, cause if you want to impress any guy… you need something to wear that isn't tomboyish.
Lyssa: Not too girli okay.
Paige: I'm so glad to have you back.
(Paige and Ashley gave Lyssa a hug. Lyssa went to elementary with them for part of the year. That is why Paige didn't recognize Lyssa.)
Lyssa: See you guys after school. I'm gonna spend the last few with Sean.
(Lyssa walks over to Sean's table and "accidentally" falls on Jay's lap.)
Lyssa: I'm such a stooge.
Jay: Stooge?
Lyssa: It's my word for everything. (Lyssa scoots on his lap on to Sean's and then on the bench that is left.) So that funny story.
(Jay tells Lyssa all about Sean stealing Mr. Simpson's laptop. Lyssa gets mad and tells him that she'll be home later cause she's going to Paige's and going shopping.)
(Sean is sitting at the table with a math book at his side.)
Lyssa: (approaching quietly) Math… my favorite subject.
