Thank youso much to both of you who reviewed! I'm not really sure if anyone else likes this, but this is the last filler-ish chapter and the next one should be good. I just realized that in the past two chapters, I probably haven't kept all the verbs in the same tense, yea, I'm kinda bad at that sometimes lol. But it shouldn't take away from the understanding of the story or anything. Ooh and I wanted to ask if you think I've been making Paige too nice. My sister reads over the chapters and lets me know what she thinks and that was her comment.

Paige was driving to Spinner's house to pick him up for school. On a typical day he'd be running late and she'd have to sit in the car and wait for him to grab his books and a pop tart. But

today, much to Paige's surprise, he was standing on the porch waiting for her.

"Hey, you're early! What's the occasion?"

He slid into the passenger seat, leaning over to kiss her cheek.

"I couldn't wait to give you this," he said, handing her a small box, wrapped in shiny purple paper.

"Oh Spin! You even wrapped it yourself!"

"Open it!" he urged, excitedly.

Paige opened the box and saw a silver necklace with a heart on it. The heart had three diamonds on it that glistened as it moved in the morning sunlight. There were also matching earrings.

"Aww, Spin, it's beautiful! And it's exactly the one I've been wanting. How did you know?"

"Hey, I'm your boyfriend, I just knew. Well, that and the fact that you point it out every time we pass the jewelry window."

Paige teasingly hit his arm and laughed.

"So you like it...?" Spinner asked.

"I absolutely love it! Honeybee, you're the best; thank you!"

"Here let me put it on for you."

Paige lifted her air as Spinner fastened the clasp around her neck.

"I have something for you too Spin."

She leaned into the backseat and grabbed a box wrapped in basketball paper.

"Okay, so it's not the most romantic paper, but I know you like basketball," Paige joked as she handed him the box.

Spinner opened the box and found a brand new 'Triple 5 Soul' sweatshirt.

"Paige, this is awesome!"

"Yea, well I was tired of seeing you wear the same old sweatshirt each week!" she said jokingly.

"I knew you wanted a new one," Paige explained further, "so I hope you like the one I chose."

"Yea, it's great, especially since it came from you."

"See Spin, people never get to see this side of you, but I think it's sweet." Paige said, as she glanced at the clock. "Oops, we're gonna be late, we'd better get going."

At Degrassi after school in the gym:

"Hazel, Manny," Paige began, looking at each of them as she said their name, "this is Kayleigh. The one who I was telling you about."

"Oh, hey Kayleigh!"

"Hi Kayleigh, I'm Manny."

"Hi." Kayleigh replied timidly.

"Okay, so Kay, what can you do?" Paige began.

"Umm.... well I don't know. What do you want me to do?"

"How about we start with a somersault, nice and simple!" Manny suggested.

"Fine." Kayleigh said, sounding a little more confident.

Kayleigh somersaulted well, since she and her little brother and sister had been doing them all through the house since they were young.

"Alright, now do a cartwheel." Hazel said.

Kayleigh nailed the cartwheel too.

She smiled and then spoke, "That's pretty much all I can do, I mean like maybe a handstand...but how often is that used in cheer routines?"

"Not often." Paige stated, smiling.

She turned to Kayleigh, "Just give us a minute. Why don't you wait over there."

Paige then turned back to Manny and Hazel.

"So, what do you guys think?"

"She's not bad, she can learn the cheers easily too." Hazel commented.

Manny agreed, "We only have a week until the next big game. Where else would we find someone?"

"Ok," Paige declared, "It's settled, she's in!"

"But Paige..." Hazel started.

"Yea?"

"Why are you being so nice to her? What happened to your usual Paige attitude?"

Paige shrugged. "I don't have an attitude, I'm just honest."

"Kay!" she called across the gym, Congrats, you're in!"

Kayleigh smiled, pleased with herself for taking the opportunity to make friends and try something new. 'Maybe I'll even end up liking this.' She thought to herself.

"Hey, how about we go out for ice cream? I've been dying for some all day." Manny said.

"Sounds good!" Kayleigh said excitedly.

"Fine by me." Hazel added.

"Alright," Paige eventually agreed, "But I can't stay too long. I have that big date with Spinner tonight."

At the ice cream shop:

"So, fill Kayleigh in about you and Spinner!" Manny said, and they all giggled.

"There's not much to tell." Paige insisted.

"But what about your plans for tonight!" Hazel reminded her.

"He's your boyfriend, right?" Kayleigh questioned.

"Yea." Paige answered simply.

"I wouldn't forget that, it's an odd name. I'm sure there's a story behind it."

"Yea, nothing big. I'll tell you when I have a chance. Right now I want to inform you of my plans for tonight!"

"Ooh ok." Kayeligh said slightly unsure, but she was excited to be included in the gossip.

"Well, Spin and I have been going out for 18 months now, so I think it's time for us to...ya know...."

From the look on Kayleigh's face, Paige could see she clearly didn't know.

"Have sex." Paige finished.

Kayleigh gasped, "But...but you're only 16!"

"Yea well, we're not all prude virgins who are waiting until marriage." Paige shot back.

Kayleigh felt slightly hurt, but just said "Oh ok. Have fun then."

"Thanks." Paige said, smiling again, "Yea, I'd better get going now, I have to get ready and I don't want to be late! Well, not too late....but I do have to be fashionably late!"

"See you Monday guys!" she called on her way out the door.

The other three girls finished their ice cream, and then headed their separate ways.
