Eli had to hand it to himself, taking Fitz down a notch or two like that yesterday had felt great, even if it meant hiding out the rest of the day. At least Clare had thought of him enough to bring him a burger and check up on him every once in a while, whether it was love or just friendship he didn't know yet.
"Good morning Dr. Doom." Adam said as he fell in step with Eli in the main lobby of Degrassi.
Eli put on his trademark smirk, "And why are we in such a good mood today? Usually you don't speak whole sentences until after first period."
"No reason in particular other than I'm actually looking forward to gym today." Adam was grinning ear to ear.
"Do I want to know?" He cringed at all the possibilities why gym could be fun today, and he shuttered all the thoughts.
"One word. Bianca." Adam wiggled his eye brows, and Eli snorted at the thought. Both boys laughed a little together, walking to their lockers.
"Ooh Eli..." Fitz sang out as the two boys rounded the corner.
"You know from over here it sounded like you were moaning my name. Sorry Fitzy, I don't roll that way."
"Oh you think you're real cute don't you?" Fitz towered over him but Eli didn't back down.
"I think you think I'm cute." All the girls choked back laughter as they began to gather around to watch the confrontation.
Fitz glared daggers Eli as he turned around to open his locker door. "What's wrong Fitz, did I just spill your secret?" Eli laughed as he pulled open his locker.
Everybody jumped back almost three feet because of the bucket that came tumbling down at Eli and splattering all over his clothes. Almost immediately they began to fade the black material until you could clearly see they were bleach stains.
Fitz high-fived some of his friends that had helped rig the bucket in Eli's locker. "Oh, my secrets are good, thanks for being concerned. But it looks like you spilled a lil something on yourself!" Fitz took off laughing while Eli glared daggers at his back down the hallway.
"Oh, he's a dead man walking." Eli growled to Adam, who looked nervous the Eli would attack Fitz from behind.
