Never Got Over You

Chapter 6- Let Go

A/N: Gosh…I haven't updated this story since last year! So sorry to all the Degrassi fans who have been reading this…I promise to end this story! Chapter 7 WILL be the last chapter…because this one doesn't really conclude the story the way I want to conclude it. Well, enjoy and peace until the next action-filled chapter!

I walked out of the club almost immediately after that interesting event…I couldn't believe JT was going out with that evil little crusader! I really thought he had more class. I guess not.

The phone rang, making me jump. It probably was JT, trying to erase his guilt by smooth talking me out of being mad at him. It wasn't going to work.

"JT, you have to realize that…" I started, before he cut in.

"Liberty, I just want to let you know that I'm really sorry. I didn't handle it well, and I apologize." he said.

Well, that wasn't what I was expecting…

"Thanks…you really didn't have to apologize." I replied.

"No, I wanted to. I've been a jerk, and I know you must feel confused about everything right now…I know I am. Maybe we should move on." he said. My heart began to thump.

"Move on? JT, we have. You're with Emma." I replied.

"Yeah, but you know there's feelings there. Just like when you go to a restaurant, and you don't finish your food! There's remnants there, just laying there doing nothing. I know I have some leftover feelings." JT said.

JT was being serious…minus that leftover joke, but he was serious. Maybe he has changed.

"Me too…" I said. He didn't reply for a few seconds.

"Liberty, let's just face it. It's not going to work out. I mean, there's everything going on with Emma, and I can't just break that off." JT replied.

"Yeah, and I guess all that we had just doesn't matter." I said and hung up. JT was treating it like he didn't care, like it was something he wanted to just forget about! It made me feel like everything I had felt just didn't matter. At all.

I sat there and thought about things. JT and Emma…how perfect they were together…it sickened me. My conversation with JT sickened me even more! But what could I do about it…he moved on. He's happy now. I should be happy for him.

The next day, I watched everyone walk into class. JT and Emma were holding hands and chatting, much to my dismay. I had to get used to this, to them…

It wasn't going to be easy though.

JT walked over and sat next to me. I instantly turned away.

"Libs…our relationship matters to me! Why'd you hang up like that?" JT said. I looked at him and rolled my eyes.

"You just don't get it, do you? I mean, c'mon JT. You know what you said." I replied.

"I know, it wasn't like my usual self…but I was worried! I didn't want to lose your friendship!" JT said. My expression turned sour.

"Well, you lost a lot more than that." I said. JT looked at me and tried to think of what to say. Serves him right.

"Liberty. Please. You don't know what it's been like for me lately…stressing over these new feelings, trying to figure out the old ones…" he replied. Yeah, where's the part when you decide that you're suddenly in love with Emma?

"I don't know. Maybe its better that we're friends. There's way too much drama going on…" I said. There was a moment of silence between us, until the bell rang.

JT sighed andsat down in his usual seat. I leant back in my chair and tried to listen to Mrs. Kwan.I really wish all this drama wasn't going on…First, the whole baby spectacle. Now this. Aren't we a bit too old for this…nonsense?

But then, I could simply just be too selfish. I mean, if I truly love JT…I'll let him go, let him be with Emma…even if I don't like her. Obviously he cares about her. Maybe just being friends is the best thing we could do for our relationship.

Maybe it's time to move on.
