Okay, yes, I know I haven't updated lately, but I've been busy. Everyone feel free to give me suggestions. Go ahead, no matter how broken, incomplete, crazy or stupid the idea is!
I sat in the shadows of a tree, a comic book in my lap, wondering what was taking Mom so long to pick us up. Drew sat next to me, trying to solve math problems, and letting out frustrated groans and sighs every other minute. I gave him an annoyed glance, hoping he'd get the clue to shut up… but he didn't even look up from his math-book.
"Drew!" I jerked my head up in time to see KC and Owen jogging over, looking sweaty and sorta winded, though they had already changed out of their football uniforms like Drew, and were both wearing jeans and sweatshirts. Crap… I thought. Though I had nothing against KC personally, I really didn't love either of the two jocks in particular. Why me?
"Drew, come on, we're going to The Dot, wanna come?" KC invited eagerly, looking rather upbeat. Drew's face lit up and he glanced at me hopefully. I knew that Allie was constantly going to the Dot after school with Clare or Jenna, and Drew always loved an excuse to be there, for the chance of seeing her.
"Fine, go." I muttered. Owen gave a snicker, and both Drew and I gave him a strange look as my step-bro got to his feet, closing the textbook with his feet.
"What?" Drew asked.
"Nothing, nothing…. Just that you're asking your little tranny sister for permission to go to The Dot…" Owen practically whispered the last words, trailing off. Drew's face twisted with annoyance.
Drew got up and punched Owen in the arm- hard.
"Shut up before I kick your ass," Drew snapped, giving Owen a long, hard stare before beginning to walk off. KC hesitated slightly before following. Owen sulked and trailed after them. "That hurt, dude, I just got my H1N1 vaccination, like, two days ago… my shoulders so sore…" he whined as he scampered after the two.
I sighed heavily. Whatever. I checked my watch- Mom should have been here 20 minutes ago. I quickly pulled out my phone and texted her- I was done sitting out here in the chill as night began to fall upon Degrassi.
Going inside the scool. library.
I sat in the library, glumly flicking the page of her book back to turn the page, and ripping it. Shit. I quickly glanced up to make sure the librarian hadn't noticed. Nope.
I hummed the annoying tune that had been stuck in her head all day, and was soon singing under my breath- "There's a hole in the wall, it's a dirty free-for-all…"
My head perked up slightly at the sound of the door opening, and glanced over to see who was here- Adam. I swear my heart stopped, and my face blushed bright red as he sat across the table from me. I fingered the necklace on my neck, feeling my ear-tips growing hot. Crap...
