Jay stopped at the stop light and looked over at Alex. "So what's going on with you and Dominic?"

"What's it to you?" she said as she put her feet up on the dashboard. Jay shrugged. "Just making convo."

She looked at him for a moment then rolled her eyes. "Well if you must know we are just friends. So are you finally going to tell me what's up with you and Queenbee?"

Jay looked ahead and clenched his jaw. He didn't want to talk about Paige, especially to Alex.

"Oh so serious? Wow I guess she isn't that big of a prude as I thought she was." She said with a laugh. Jay shook his head then looked at her.

"Don't you ever get tried of being mean and talking shit?" he asked Alex laughed again.

"Oh this coming from the guy who likes to lock kids in lockers, pick on random people, and just over all terrorizes the halls of Degrassi. You are going to tell me about my actions?"

"People can change." He mumbled as he looked back at the road. Alex shook her head.

"Did you just say people can change? Am I in Jay Hogart's car? Because it sorta looks like him minus the whole plastic ken look, but he sure as hell isn't thinking like him. Whatever the fuck she is putting in your head you need to snap it out and bring back the old Jay." Jay parked the car in front of her house. He still kept his eyes forward. "Just go Alex I'm tired of fighting with you." Alex was about to step out but stayed.

"Look Jay, you know that I say shit how it is…"she began but Jay gave her a look. She sighed. "Let's go have some beers. My parents aren't home…"Jay knew what he would be in for if he accepted her invite. Having "some beers" with Alex always turned into long make out sections or more. Jay looked down at his dashboard and shook his head. Alex slowly nodded her head. She was hurt that she wasn't his first priority anymore, but she didn't let him know. She got out of the car and slammed the door. Jay stretched but quickly retracted in pain the fresh bruises on his back and stomach were a reminder that he didn't want to go back to his house. So he drove to his "safe haven". The ravine.

Paige let out a long yawn as she stood at her locker Monday morning after home room. She was up late talking to Ashley on the phone. She knew she had to apologize, one thing she hated to do but she knew she had to. It wasn't Ashley's fault she was just trying to be a friend. Her yawn quickly turned in to a smile when she saw Marco. "Mr. Del Rossi, just the guy I wanted to see." She said as she walked up to him.

"I have a feeling you are going to ask me something major." He said with a smile.

"Now whatever do you mean one of my most loved friend in the whole world?" she asked sweetly. Marco laughed.

"That right there, you buttering me up. What do you need Paige?" he said as he stopped at his locker.

"Well I know your wonderful father has the ultimate hook up when it comes to making prints so do you think could ask him to hook up your desperate but oh so lovable friend?" she asked with a smile. Marco sighed and closed his locker door. "This is for the dance right?" he asked. Paige nodded. "So will you help me out?" she asked with pleading eyes.

"I dunno, I kind of want to see you in that paper bag." He said as he grinned. She punched him playfully in the arm. He laughed.

"Ok. Ok. How many will you need?" he asked. Paige squealed then embraced him.

"Well I'm going to need like 20 posters and about 15 flyers." She replied as they began walking down the hall again.

"Ok, just bring me in the pictures before Friday. I can't believe Jay is actually going through with this all." Marco said as looked over at her.

"I'm just as shocked as you are. Speaking of Jay have you seen him around?." She asked. Marco shook his head. "No as a matter of a fact Spinner is not here as well. Perhaps they are off having a sword fight duel fighting for your love?" he said as he put his hand up to his heart. Paige rolled her eyes and smiled. "Marco you need to lay off the Shakespeare."

"What can I say? I'm a hopeless romantic. But do I spy your knight in shining armor up a head?" Paige looked a head and saw Jay at his locker she smiled. "Marco..I.."

"I know, you love me and you'll talk to me later." He said with a smile. She smiled back and went up to Jay.

"Jay, where were you? I got some good news Marco said he will hook us up with posters for the dance." She said as she reached his locker. Jay shut his locker then turned around. She let out a small gasp as she saw his face. "What happened?" she asked softly as she saw his face.

"Woke up late, got in a fight this weekend with some guy at the ravine, and now I'm stuck here all day. Soo yeaaaa I'm feeling great today." He said sarcastically as he slung his bag around his shoulder. "I'll catch you after school" he said walking away.

"Well what about lunch we got to work on what we want for the posters." She said as he walked away. He turned around and shrugged. "I got to work on this project with the boys." She nodded. "Ok after school then." She said disappointed. She knew something was wrong with him but she didn't know what. The last bell rang.. "Great." She muttered as she walked down the empty hall to her class.
