Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi

We fell into a routine. I'd wake up and go to school. I never talked to anyone. I'd come back go up to my room and lock the door. I'd do my homework then just sit there the rest of the night. Manny brought dinner up to me. It was always dark I never turned on a light. I sat in the dark. I'd purposely only call Jay on the house phone just to rack up the phone bill. We'd talk for hours we'd fall asleep on the phone. I'd wake up to the phone beeping. A week passed just like that. It rained a lot in Florida. Everyone said it was normal. I don't think it could possibly be normal for it to rain this much. Now it was Saturday. No school. The clouds looked ominous. The wind picked up and Manny decided it would be fun to take a bike ride. As we were riding the wind kept getting harder. It started raining. The rain was hard.

The streets flooded badly and they were already pretty wet from the past rains. The retention pond was full. The streets were getting wetter by the second. The wind was now pushing us backwards. We got out of our neighborhood and kept riding. Apparently that was a bad idea the storm just got worse. There were cars speeding and slipping on the road. People were looking at us like we're crazy. At the moment I think we are for not turning back but I couldn't stand that house and neither could Manny. The wind caused Manny to fall. She rolled into a ditch. I saw blood coming from her head.

"Manny" I yelled. I turned and started coasting down the slope. A big gust of wind sent me flying down into the ditch with her. I was hurt but not as bad as Manny since I didn't hurt my head. I tried to get her to wake up. I pulled her up to the street and lied her down gently. There were no more cars rushing for shelter. I took off one shoe and a sock and started cleaning Manny up. She woke up and the bleeding stopped.

"I don't think riding our bikes in the storm was a good idea" she laughed.

"You knew there was going to be a storm!"

"I saw a warning on TV I thought it might be fun."

"You're insane! I'm calling my mom" I grabbed my cell phone.

They got there pretty quickly and took us back home.

"What were you two thinking" dad yelled.

"To tell you the truth I thought if you saw how dangerous it was here you'd take us back" Manny admitted when we were sitting on our couch in the living room.

"You really hate it here that much." We both nodded.

"We'd have to sell the house" dad shook his head.

"They can stay up there for awhile while we sell the house."

"Are you sure that's a good idea."

"Archie they're miserable."

"We'll get up there as soon as possible."

"There's a plane leaving tomorrow morning at 12" I told them.

"How do you... never mind" mom said.

I went to bed early wanting the next day to start.

I walked into Degrassi and Sean walked over and put his arm around me and we walked to class together. We were smiling and laughing. Jay came up to us and pulled us apart. He made me shatter into a million pieces then sat there and picked them all up. I pushed him away and he vanished. I was all alone.

I woke up in a cold sweat. The dream was so real. I couldn't figure out what it meant. I jumped out of bed and ran to Manny's room. She was sleeping so I shook he until she woke up.

"I had a dream I need you to analyze it for me."

"I'm not a dream analyzer."

"Try."

"Fine what happened?"

I told her what happened.

"Well it could mean that you feel Jay broke you and Sean up and you still have feelings for Sean so you resent him for that."

"No I don't like Sean anymore that's for sure."

"Ok well maybe it has nothing to do with Sean maybe you just think you're going to push Jay away and you'll be all alone and heartbroken."

"I really love him."

"I know you do."

"Do you mind if I sleep in here tonight?"

She shook her head and we started watching TV to fall asleep.
