Chapter 5: The Only One

When Heather had finally finished helping her mom with dinner, it was already 5:30.

"Mom, I'm going to go take a shower and get ready, okay?"

"Okay honey."

Heather took a quick shower and then went to her room, not bothering to straighten her hair, but rather find a way to make her wild curls seem pretty and girly. After getting her curls as tame as they were ever going to be, she went to her closet, trying to find the perfect outfit to wear when she saw Sean tonight. She finally decided on a pale blue skirt with a white tank top. When she was dressed and putting on her make-up, she began thinking.

'Why am I getting so dressed up? I mean, it's just Sean after all, no big deal, I don't like him anymore, that was a while ago. I don't still like him!' Heather tried to convince herself, with no luck. 'Well, they're not here yet, I'll just go on the computer, see who's doing what...'

Right as she signed on, she got 3 IM's from friends back in Wasaga.

"Uggghhh I don't want to talk to them right now...they don't need to know who I met back up with...they can wait."

Then a few more IM's...Emma, Manny...something about a stupid party...Craig.

Dcxslxmestgrl3: thanks..and yeah I am..and yes I knew sean before I came here, just didn't know he went to Degrassi, if that's what you were gonna ask.

OverXposed: yeah, actually it was. How did you know?

OverXposed: oh.

Dcxslxmestgrl3: yeah. 's here...talk to ya soon!

Away Message from Dcxslxmestgrl3: Sean and Tracker are here! =)

Craig couldn't help but feel a little bit of jealousy at this. And he couldn't help but think...maybe he should have told Heather. She seemed like such a sweet girl, and not that any other girl at Degrassi would ever give him a chance after the whole Ashley/Manny fiasco. Hopefully Heather hadn't already heard the stories...
