a/n : Sorry guys. I've been so overwhelmed lately. My dance school is having a Christmas recital so I've been having some crazy long rehearsals. Anyway, hope you enjoy this chapter.

Chapter 2

As Casey descended the stairs and entered the kitchen she found a note left by her mom that read:

Casey, George and I decided to take Derek, Marti, and Edwin to the ice rink they have here. We asked Lizzie if she wanted to come but she said no, and we figured that you would probably want to relax and get to know some of the people that live here. Anyway, I'll see you soon. Love ya!

Mom

"This is perfect," Casey thought to herself, "I better wake Lizzie and tell her to get dressed so we can hang out"

Just as she was about to climb the stairs to get her younger sibling, the doorbell rang. When she answered it she saw two girls: one that had had curly, light brown hair and one that had straight blonde hair

"Hi,", the blonde one said, extending here hand, " I'm Emma Nelson"

"And I'm Manuella Santos, but everyone calls me Manny", said the curly haired one with a smile on her face.

"I'm Casey McDonald, nice to meet you both", Casey said shaking both of their hands.

"So, are you from Toronto", Emma asked

"No, I'm from London, Ontario. In fact, my family and I just moved here yesterday"

"So tomorrow's your first day at Degrassi", Manny inquired

"Yep, I'm starting my senior year tomorrow"

"Really, so are we", Emma replied

"Cool", Casey said

"Anyways, we were wondering if you would like to hang out with us today. You, so we can show you around town, maybe grab a bight to eat", Emma suggested

In Casey's mind, the choir ahh started. She already had made two new friends, and she had only been there for 18 hours. She was about to say yeah when she remembered someone; Lizzie.

"Sorry guys, but my little sister still Lizzie still hasn't met anybody yet, and I would feel kind of guilty leaving her here by herself"

"How old is your sister", Manny asked, her head jerking up

"14, why" Casey asked, slightly confused

"Because, I have a sister that's only a year older. Maybe we could get them to hang out together", Manny said with enthusiasm in her voice

"That's a great idea Manny, let me get Lizzie up and dressed and we'll meet you on my porch in a half an hour"

""Perfect, see ya in 30 minutes", Manny said as she and Emma bounded down her porch stairs

Lizzie's POV

"Are you serious", I asked my sister for the 4th time even though I knew what her answer was going to be.

"Yes Lizzie, for the fourth time, you are going to have a new friend before school year starts, but if you ask again, I can make sure it doesn't happen", Casey said in a mock serious voice, yet it was very convincing

"Fine, let's just get ready to meet up with them", I supposed

"Good Idea", Casey replied. And with that, I entered my bathroom while Casey entered hers to get ready.

(10 minutes later)

I was the first one downstairs

Casey was still trying to figure out what to wear while I had decided on wearing a pair of extremely light jeans with a baby blue henley top and my uggs.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, my sister came down the stairs wearing a blue, black, and white plaid skirt and a white polo shirt. That's Casey for you, always choosing to wear a skirt instead of a comfortable pair of jeans. Oh well.

Anyway, as soon as Casey came down the stairs the doorbell rang, and Casey ran to get it as I followed her to the door.

"Hey Manny", my sister greeted to one of her new friends

"Hey Case" Manny greeted back "and you must be Lizzie", she said to me

"Yup, that's me"

"I'm Manny Santos and this is my friend Emma Nelson", she said as she pointed to a blonde who waved at me.

"Nice to meet you", I said politely, even though I was kind of anxious to meet my possible first friend in Toronto.

"Anyways, Lizzie, this is my sister Sabrina, Sabrina meet Lizzie" Manny introduced as she pointed to a brunette with wavy hair and a side bang

Sabrina was wearing a dark denim miniskirt with black leggings, and navy tank top with ballet flats. From first looking at her, I guessed that she was the popular girl who got along with everyone and lived up to everybody's expectations, just like my sister. I also noticed that she had a Brazil Dance Academy sweatshirt in her arms, so obviously she was a dancer. I decided to ask her how she got the sweatshirt.

"Oh, This old thing. I attended the dance academy so I got it for free.", Sabrina responded.

"So are you from Brazil or something", I asked out of curiosity.

"No I was born and raised in Canada, but my sister and parents were born in The Philippines. When I was in the fourth grade, I got recruited to go to BDA (Brazil Dance Academy) so I went and stayed there up until half of my freshman year, which was last year," she explained

"So you're a sophomore now", I don't know where all these questions were coming from. I'm usually the type of person who doesn't talk unless I'm talked to, but now look at me, I won't shut up!

"Yep, are you?", Sabrina asked me

"No, this is going to be my first year of high school. I'm super psyched", I told her

"Yeah the first year of high school is exciting for like the first day, but then our brains realize that it's still school and then it becomes boring again", she said with a chuckle.

I had to laugh at that. I think this is going to be the start of a beautiful friendship.
