Note:I have looked at my reviews and have decided to make another chapter
early since people seem to be liking it. I am not exactly sure if the
reactions each person have are what is expected but I will do my best not
to leave someone who would be mad, happy. I will try to have a few
surprises if I can. Hope you like it. I promise not to leave anyone
hanging too long. I will add on to it as long as it seems right. Here goes.
Chapter 3 I slowly walked up the Degrassi steps and opened the front door. I was hoping I would atleast get to my locker before Manny saw me because I didn't want too much attention from the other students. Luckily I opened my locker and got my stuff for homeroom without being spotted. As I was turning the corner to go to class who should be there but Ashley. She stared at me and then turned away when Manny tapped me on the shoulder from behind. "Hi Manny" I said trying to sound casual. "Hey Craig, I missed you, want to meet me outside at lunch?" I accepted the offer and she unexpectedly leaned in and kissed me and walked off to homeroom.
I walked the rest of the way to class relieved that no one had, as far as I noticed, found out about Manny. I know everyone will eventually know but I want to atleast go through a few classes without anyone yelling at me. As I sat down I saw Paige glaring at me from the corner of my eye. The way she stared at me showed that Ashley told her everything that had happened over the weekend. It wasn't like it surprised me or nothing but it does feel creepy knowing that I am being watched.
Paige finally looked away as Mr.Simpson entered the classroom. He told us we could have a free day so he could catch up on grading assignments because he has been home a lot. Which reminds me that I haven't really seen Emma around since the night of the Rave. She probably isn't happy about seeing me make out with Manny. I guess it doesn't matter now that I broke up with Ashley.
I was interrupted from my thoughts by a message appearing on my screen. It was from Paige. It reads: Hey I know what happened with you and Ashley. I also thought I would let you know that I saw your little lip lock with Manny this morning. I can't believe you dumped Ashley for that Slut! She may be one of the best on the spirit squad but she is part of this whole situation and I saw it with my own eyes. Lucky for you I won't kick her off the squad but I can make you pay. Spinner is my boyfriend, therefore if I tell him not to talk to you no more, he is going to listen. I just thought I'd let you know you are losing a friend because of this. Tah Tah
-Paige I sat open mouthed for a few minutes before coming to my senses. I couldn't believe Paige was going to make Spinner turn against me. I suspected she would try but now that I have heard it from her directly, it seems unbelievable. I guess I shouldn't let her get to me too much because I know that is what she wants. She knows if I get too frustrated then I will end up feeling too guilty and I'll lose Manny by telling her I can't handle the relationship. I know that I love Manny and I want to make up for all the time I ignored her with Ashley and I am not going to let any of Ashley's friends stop me from that. I decided I would reply to the message so she would understand I had got it and wasn't intimidated by her. It read: I didn't think anyone saw Manny and I this morning but I did expect people to find out about us eventually. Just to let you know I am not intimidated by your message at all and if you want to make Spinner not talk to me then go ahead. He knew about Manny when I was still going out with Ashley. She was right about me cheating on her but I don't completely regret it because I found the right girl for me.
-Craig PS I don't care if you show this to Ashley.
I know everyone can't just go about hating me forever. Could they? I sent the message and about 5 mins afterward the bell rang to go to 2nd period. The next few classes went by kind of quickly and when it came lunch time I hurried outside before anyone could confront me. Sure enough, Manny was sitting at a table waiting for me. It was cold outside so anyone that would have been mad at me was inside eating lunch. "Hey Craig, Want to go and eat lunch inside by the lockers.It is rather cold out here." I agreed because it was at snow temperature and I'd rather face Paige or someone else instead of freezing. We both walked inside and sat down by her locker and ate sack lunches. After we had both finished we threw our garbage out and sat in a corner near the school's entrance. "So Craig, what are you planning on going with me after school?" I had thought about it and decided we could watch a movie at my house since it was too cold for the park. Joey would be home around 6 PM and I was sure it was a best time as ever to let him know of my girlfriend situation. "Well since it is too cold to go to the park I was hoping you wouldn't mind renting a movie and watching it at my house. Joey will be home around 6 , so I have time to plan what I am going to tell him about you" I hoped that she would understand why Joey needed to know or why I hadn't told him before. "Sure Craig, that sounds perfect. I know that Joey will understand. He has probably had plenty of different girlfriends in the past." She did have a point there. Joey was known to be quite the ladies man. I decided I wouldn't stress it too much. Just then the bell rang and we both headed off to out classes. The rest of the day went by slow but as I heard the last bell ring I couldn't help but smile. I have a GF who I know I love and that she feels the same way and she is not too suffocating or strict. Maybe things are looking up for me.
Well There is Chapter 3. I know yall are wondering what will go on with Craig and Manny on their "date". I assure you I won't make you wait too long. I hope that the people who reviewed my story already are happy with how it is going and I am looking forward to hearing from more of you. This has been an exciting experience for me and I will try my best to keep this story going smoothly. Thanks for reading and reviewing. I think I made the reactions good and without writing a long thing from each person. I basically spoke through Paige when it comes to Ashley's friend's side. Hope you all enjoy it!
