Knocking On Doors

Corrine woke when someone was shaking her."Corrine wake up,"said a male voice who she knew instantly.

"Daddy! Your here! How's London?"

"Good and I bought you a new messenger bag from Harrod's."Her dad opened a suit case and take out a light green and light blue bag with Harrod's on the front.

"Thanks so much,"Corrine said as her dad handed it to her.

"So how was your first day of school?"Her dad asked as he sat next to her on the couch and turned the television on.

"Good, I've made quite a few friends. So how long are you going to stay this time?"

Her father sighed."Sorry Cor but I'm leaving for Mexico to direct a movie in a week." She hated when her father would stay for only a few days."But I want you to get dressed because we're having dinner at my friend's house. Snake and Spike and Joey will be there too. Don't worry, you won't be the only kid there. Joey has a step-son and Spike has a daughter."

"Oh joy,"she said as she got up to her room to change for dinner. She changed into a brown tweed knee length skirt, a yellow Beatles tee and her Cherry print slip-on Vans. Her father knocked on the door.

"Ready sweet pea?" She opened the door and saw her dad still in his crisp white buttoned shirt and jeans.

"Yeah."They exited there house and drove to Spike's house. Her dad was the first to knock on the door and a rather tall young lady answered the door.

"Oh you must be Mr.Watson. Please come in." Mr.Watson walked in with his daughter.

"Will, it's so good to see you!"Shouted a man who Corrine knew as her MI lab teacher.

"Oh Emma please meet Corrine, Will's daughter." Emma introduced herself to Corrine. Then a short lady came in carrying a baby.

"Spike it's so good to see you again and this must be Jack."

"It's so new to see you again Will."Spike said as she greeted her father and Corrine."Emma why don't you and Corrine wait in your room till dinner starts." Emma lead Corrine to the basement/room.

"How do you like Canada so far Corrine?"Emma asked as she take out a chair for Corrine as Emma sat on the bed.

"Good, I like Degrassi too."

"I go to Degrassi also for Grade 10. We're just waiting for Joey, his daughter Angela and his step-son Craig."

"Craig Manning?"

"Yeah, I'm sure you have a few classes with him."

"I do."

"If you don't mind me asking, but where's you mom?"

"Oh, in Africa."

"Africa? Wow, I've always wanted to go there. What does she do there?"

"Well before she died, she was quite a famous enviromentalist."

"Oh I'm so sorry for asking-wait is your mom Lisa Lewis?"

"Yep."

"Wow, she's always been my role model." Just then, there was a knock on the door. Emma went up the stairs and opened it."Hey Craig." Emma lead Craig down to her room.

"Hey Corrine,"Craig greeted.

"Hey."

"Your mom said that dinner will be done a ten minutes so she told me to wait down her with you guys."They talked mostly about school and such and about people form their school.

"Kids, it's time for dinner,"called Spike from outside the door. Dinner went well, Corrine meet Joey and Angela who Corrine thinks is so adorable. The adults were talking about their time in Degrassi. Against Corrine's will, Craig and Emma found out that her dad was indeed the WILL WATSON. They promised to keep it a secret like Corrine asked them too. When her father and she got home, they said goodnight and went to bed.
