A/N:I do not own the characters of Degrassi.
Danielle: I am a she! It's funny you call me a shim. In school a few years ago, there actually was a guy in my English class named Shim. He was very weird.
Why is everyone so hung up on Sean and Emma? I never thought they looked good together. I guess some people like the good girl with the bad girl type (though I think Sean is too good to be a real bad boy). And no, I don't hate Sean. I think he's pretty cool.
After
finishing decorating the school, the six of them, Liberty, JT, Emma,
Toby, Angie, and Jack, decided to have dinner at the old hangout, The
Dot.
"Wow,
remember the times we've spent here." JT said, opening the door
for Emma. She looked up at the building before entering. Memories
flooded her mind.
"Angie,
do the kids still hang out here?" Emma asked. Even though Angie
was Craig Manning's younger sister, she reminded Emma more of Manny
Santos in looks. But, she did act a bit like Craig.
"Some
do, but others are trying to convert a local coffee shop."
JT
pulled out a chair for Emma and was about to sit down next to her
when he was pulled away.
"Let
the girls sit by themselves. I haven't spoken to you all day. All you
ever do is hang by Emma." Toby said, getting JT to sit at
another table. JT gave him a look, but reluctantly sat down.
"She's
so beautiful." He watched her brush her blonde hair away from
her face and laugh at something Liberty said.
"She's
my sister." Jack said in disgust.
"I
could see myself with her forever." JT replied.
--
Why
is everyone so surprised to see JT and I together?" Emma said to
Liberty after their food had arrived. She picked up a fry and placed
it in her mouth. "We have been friends most our lives. We've
been together, just not together."
"Yeah..."
Liberty sighed. Once upon a time, she had a crush on JT, but that was
long gone.
"So,
what's going on with you?" Emma asked. Sitting between the two
girls, Angie's eyes darted back and forth, listening to the
conversation, while eating her chicken sandwich.
"After
obtaining a degree in law, I am currently working at a prestigious
law firm in downtown Toronto. Toby and I have stayed in touch since
graduation, but unlike you and JT, we did not fall in love."

The
following evening, Dylan drove Marco and Paige to Degrassi Community
School for their reunion.
"What's
wrong, Marco?" Dylan asked getting out of the car. Marco shook
his head. All day he thought about the phone call. He had been told
that they would definitely get an answer today, but no phone call had
been made. "Let's go inside." Dylan grabbed his man's hand
and led him in where Paige had already headed. Marco passed the
entrance table where he collected his and Dylan's nametags.
"Thank
you, Margo." Marco looked down at his nametag, noticing there
was a "G" instead of a "C".
"That's
me, Margo Del Rossi." Marco was in the middle of a sigh when he
heard someone call his name.
"Marco!"
He turned around in time to give Ellie Nash a hug. "So, how've
you been?"
"Good."
Marco lied. Well, yeah, overall he'd been good, but he'd been
stressing all day. He even managed to put his shoes on the wrong
feet--twice. Dylan noticed, but he just figured it was because of the
reunion.
"I
see you and Dylan are still together."
"Yeah.
When was the last time we talked?" Marco asked leading
Ellie and Dylan to a table.
"I
think it was six years ago at Ashley's wedding." Ellie replied.
"Oh,
yes, Dylan and I were fighting then. We broke up a month later, I
think. Long story, but two years later, we got back together and have
been happy ever since." Marco patted Dylan on the knee. He
smiled.
"Hey,
I see one of my old hockey buddies. Do you mind if I go say hi?"
Without waiting for an answer Dylan left.
"Enough
about me. Tell me how my favorite girl is.
"I'm
fine. Really, I'm fine." She replied, unconvincingly. "Sean
and I break up on a yearly basis." She paused. "Right now,
I'm living with him in Wasaga Beach." Ellie tried to make it
sound like she was having fun, but she couldn't hide it. Marco looked
around for Sean, finding him talking to Emma.
"El,
it's me," he looked down at his nametag. "Margo. You can
tell me anything."
"I'm
fine. Honestly, I am." Ellie replied, not noticing Marco's joke.
"OK,
but if you ever need to talk, I'm right here."
