Note:I thank all of my reviewers again for their open opinions of my story.
I have received a negative review and I am glad to see that someone was not
afraid to say their different opinion. Not everyone is a fan of Manny and
Craig and I respect that. I do admit in the last paragraph of chapter
5,after the poem, Craig did seem less caring about his past relationship
with Ashley and I know they got along really well for a while so sorry if
he seemed cold,I realize after rereading it that he was. I plan on making
this story focus on Manny and Craig, so it was necessary to make it known
that Craig was over her completely even though I know that isn't too
realistic. I also had someone speak out about the form of the
conversation. I did write it out as one line for each person talking but
the site always changes the form. I apologize if this makes the story
harder to read. I don't plan on too much detail about the vacation and I
will get more of the affects on the Degrassi community in when vacation is
over and they are back in school. Happy New Year and hope you all continue
to enjoy the story. Sorry if this note is long but I try to communicate to
everyone I can in one note.
Chapter Six
I said "Bye" to Manny and walked home, since everyone got to leave early on the last day. I was thinking hard about what I was going to do in my free time over the break. Spinner was no where to be found and Marco has already left for vacation in New York. There was always Jimmy, but he would probably be hanging out with Spinner. I am not sure if Paige had convinced Spinner not to talk to me, but I wasn't sure if I should risk calling him.
Joey was gone so I used a key to open the front door and I grabbed a snack in the kitchen, before going upstairs to my room. Laying on my bed, I began to wonder who to call, Jimmy or Spinner? I know that they are not going to ignore me forever because we are in a band, and I am the lead singer. Getting up, I walked down the stairs and picked up the phone, dialing Jimmy's number. Jimmy: Hello Craig: Hey Jimmy Jimmy: Hey where have you been? Craig: Well besides school, nowhere Jimmy: Spinner is coming over in a half hour. Want to come over too? Craig: I am not sure if Spinner wants me around Jimmy: Oh the whole GF situation? Don't worry about it, Paige isn't planning on guarding him 24/7 or anything. Craig: OK, I'll be there.Cya Jimmy:Bye
I was still not sure about Spinner, even though Jimmy said not to worry. Paige wouldn't follow him to Jimmy's house but anywhere else she probably would be with him, So if we went anywhere else, I would have to be alert. Without further consideration I left a note for Joey and headed out the door.
I arrived at Jimmy's apartment a few minutes early and knocked. When he answered the door I was surprised to see Spinner standing with Paige in the living room. "Hey Craig, Come on in" Jimmy said. I hesitated a moment before stepping inside. Paige just glared at me. "You are probably wondering why Paige is here. Well it turns out Spinner had forgot about a date they planned so he came to tell me he couldn't hang out. I offered to rent a movie and order pizza, so instead of going to the theater we are gonna watch a movie here. That all right with you?" I stood in place a minute before agreeing and sitting down on one of the recliners. Spinner didn't say anything and I knew why. Paige said it all by the look she was giving me. "The pizza will be in 10 mins and I have the movie "A League of Extraordinary Gentleman" already rented so everyone agree with that?" I shook my head and Spinner convinced Paige it would be a decent movie. The pizza arrived and Jimmy put the movie in, we watched in silence with only the occasional reactions to what was happening in the movie.
As the movie finished, Jimmy turned the lights on (they had been turned off). "So where is your girlfriend?" Paige asked in a rather unpleasant voice. "She is leaving on vacation to a Ski Resort with her family" I answered, trying to sound not too disappointed. "Well looks like you are going to be spending Christmas alone then, too bad for you, if you wouldn't have broken up with Ashley, you would have had someone to keep you company." I felt a little bit of anger and regret when she said that but tried not to show either emotion. " I better get going, I left Joey a note and he will be expecting me home. Bye Jimmy.......Spinner." I wasn't surprised when I only got an answer from Jimmy. Paige's plan had worked for when she was around but I have yet to talk to Spinner without her there.
Note: Well I know this chapter was short but I figured I needed to get Craig hanging out with someone again and to let everyone see if Paige's plan worked. I will be updating very soon since this chapter is short. The next chapter will cover the rest of Craig's holiday vacation basically and it won't be extremely detailed because the better stuff will come up after school is back in. I just thought I should let you know of my plans and I ask a favor of anyone who is reviewing. Manny is supposed to be pregnant in the series because of the episode "Should I stay or Should I go" and I would like to hear whether or not you think I should make that part of my story or not. I prefer to have it in there because I feel it will make it turn out better but I am gonna let everyone reading have a say in it. I hope all of you are enjoying the story and if there is anything you like or dislike about it I would like to hear from you. I can't make it perfect for everyone but I will do my best to make it more enjoyable for you to read. Sorry if the conversation ends up grouped together again. I don't know how to fix the sites conversion from my document to theirs.
