DEGRASSI
CHAPTER 003: "Walking On Broken Glass (1)"
PLOT A: Fiona Coyne
"Welcome back Degrassi." Fiona whispers as she takes a deep breath. "Shocking." Imogen stated as she made her way over to Fiona with Eli close behind her. Fiona turned, "What?", she asked. "I just can't believe the Fiona Coyne has actually decided to go through with another semester." Imogen stated, joking. "Where's Eli?" Fiona asked, "With the girl of his dreams." Imogen stated as she pointed to Eli and Clare, who were sharing a kiss. "Ah, they're so cute." Fiona stated.
"Fiona!", a familiar voice called out to her. "Charlie?" Fiona whispered as the girl came over to her. "I'm glad I was able to catch you, before you went inside", Charlie said, catching her breath. "Why, what's up?" Fiona asked. "Oh, nothing it's just...I'm really short on people for my party and I was wondering if you would like to come?" Charlie said. Fiona started to think, "It'll give us a chance to rethink our friendship." Charlie added. "Okay." Fiona said as Charlie handed her the invitation and made her way back to her scooter.
"What was that about?" Imogen asked. "That. Imogen, that was the start of a wonderful semester." Fiona said, with a smile across her face as she and Imogen made their way up the steps.
PLOT B: Marisol Lewis
Marisol made her way down the hall, she was holding two cups of coffee, she was going to apologize to Katie. She stopped when she saw Katie talking to a girl, "Are you sure that's all you need?" the girl asked, "Yes, thanks Becky." Katie said as Becky made her way down the hall. Katie smiled at her as she turned to see Marisol, "Ugh.", Katie stated as she made her way back into the room. Marisol gave a weak smile, "Katie, I'm sorry, it's just I didn't exactly have the best day yesterday." Marisol stated. "So you decide to deal by calling me racist?" Katie asked. Marisol regretted it, "That was stupid of me, but I got into a dance crew, just not the Dolls." Marisol stated. Katie looked at Marisol, she couldn't just cut her out of her life like that. "Fine." Katie said taking both of the coffees. "Katie?" Marisol said, "I just accepted your apology, I deserve two." Katie stated as Marisol and her shared a laugh.
"Knock Knock.", a familiar voice said as Marisol and Katie turned around, "Mo!" Marisol shouted as she was pulled into a hug. "I thought you weren't going to be back until later on this week." Marisol said, pulling away. "So did I, but, I had to see my lady." Mo said, kissing her cheek. Katie looked at the both of them and smiled. "Ah, Mare. You should show him the studio." Katie said.
"Studio?" Mo asked. "Yeah, Marisol didn't tell you, she signed up for a dance crew, even though she didn't get into the one she wanted, I'm pretty sure she got into an even greater one." Katie said, looking at Marisol to see if she was wrong. Marisol was hesitant at first, "Nope you're not wrong, I can definitely show him the studio." Marisol said as Mo smiled at her. Marisol wasn't going to tell them that she had gotten a new job, one that didn't exactly fit the criteria of dancing.
PLOT C: Drew Torres
"Ugh.", Drew sighs as he sits quietly and waits for the judge to come into the court room. Audra looks at him, "What's wrong?", she asks. "Nothing. It's just does this have to be so..." Drew started, trying to find the right words, but Adam butted in, "Time consuming." Adam stated and Audra told them to be quiet; Bianca couldn't do anything but snicker. Adam looked at Audra, "Mom, I honestly don't see why I have to be here.", he whispered and Audra looked at him as if he were crazy, "Um, because, you got shot." Audra said, the words still made her cringe. Just then the doors opened and Drew smiled, "About time.", but when he turned around he didn't see the judge, he saw Vince, who was staring dead in his eyes.
"Vince." Drew whispered, Bianca immediately tensed up, but Adam placed his hand over top of hers, "You'll be okay." Adam whispered and Bianca looked at him and smiled. Drew, whom was still in a staring contest with Vince, was starting to feel guilty of something. "I need some air." Drew whispered as he stood up and walked out of the court room. Audra couldn't do anything but stare at him.
PLOT A: Fiona Coyne
Eli, Fiona, and Imogen were walking down the hall together, Fiona was in the middle. "Charlie Lima?" Eli asked as Fiona turned around. "Yeah, she invited me to a party." Fiona whispered as she started to open her locker. "You think that's a good idea?" Eli asked as Imogen looked at him, "Why wouldn't it be?", she asked. Eli shared a glance with Fiona, "Charlie's my ex." Fiona stated and Imogen looked at her, "You think she wants to get back together?" Eli asked as Fiona looked at him. "I mean she did make me happy." Fiona stated. Imogen gave a high-like smile and leaned on the locker beside Fiona's, "Ah, love. It's amazing.", she stated as Fiona and Eli shared a laugh.
"Well if this is her way of wanting to get back together with you, what's the worst that could happen?" Eli asked as Fiona looked at him, "I could lose her another one of her pets." Fiona stated as she looked at Imogen, "I lost her cat.", Fiona stated. Imogen looked at her, "How could you!", she stated, playfully as the three friends made their way down the hall.
PLOT B: Marisol Lewis
Marisol leads Mo all throughout the "studio", Mo then spots a girl who is wearing nothing but a bra and her underwear, "Mare. What kind of a dance crew is this?" Mo asked as Marisol's boss made his way over to the pair. "Welcome to Richie's", the man said. Mo looked at the man, he looked sleezy, "Let me guess, you're Richie?" Mo stated. "In the flesh, Marisol get your boyfriend out of here, we've got work to do." Richie said as he walked away. Marisol gave a fake, weak smile, "Sorry, I've got to start working, you've got to go." Marisol stated. "Mare. I don't mean any harm, but I can't help but feel like this job is a little too...graphic." Mo stated. Marisol folded her arms as she looked at Mo, "What are you trying to say?", she asked. "I think that Richie, is trying to turn you..." Mo began, "Into what?" Marisol asked. "A prostitute." Mo stated. "Get out. Now." Marisol stated as she made her way away from Mo.
PLOT C: Drew Torres
Drew's pacing back and forth outside of the court room, he's on the phone talking to Katie, "Why is it that I can't have one drama-free semester?" Drew asked as Katie smiled on the other end of the phone, "Tell me about it.", Katie said. "I just did." Drew said as Katie laughed again. "But, Katie, seriously what's up?" Drew asked. "Nothing, it's just, nothing. Wait, aren't you supposed to be in the court room by now?" Katie asked as Drew started to feel a little embarassed. Drew then realized that his mother had just made her way out of the room as well, "Katie I'll talk to you later." Drew stated as he started to hang up, "Love you." Katie said, but Drew had already hung up the phone.
"Drew, come on the judge is coming." Audra stated as Drew paused, "I can't." Drew stated. "Why not?" Audra asked as she looked at Drew. "Because, it's Vince, none of this would've happened if I would've just believed Bianca about Anson." Drew whispered as Audra looked at him. "Look Drew. Bianca was almost raped, you saved her life by hitting him." Audra stated. "Mom that's the thing I didn't kill him." Drew stated as Audra's face turned into shock. "Then who did?" Audra asked. "Bianca.", Drew whispered as Audra didn't say anything, she just walked back into the court room.
PLOT A: Fiona Coyne
"Je T'aime." Fiona whispered, she was reading the name of the building she was standing in front of. Charlie must be throwing one elegant party, Fiona thought as someone took her invitation; another person took her jacket. Fiona then spotted Charlie and made her way over to her, "Charlie!" Fiona called, but as she was about to go over to Charlie, a server at the party had approached Fiona with some champagne. Fiona stared at it, "It's too early for champagne." Charlie told the server as he left, Fiona smiled, "Thanks." "No problem." Charlie whispered as she admired Fiona's dress.
"I'm glad you came, me and Liz were worried about there not being any seats left." Charlie told her. "I wouldn't...Liz?" Fiona asked. "Yeah, didn't you read the invite?" Charlie asked as Fiona looked at Charlie's ring finger, an engagement ring, "This is your..." Fiona began, but she couldn't find the words. "Engagement party, Fiona, I thought you knew that." Charlie stated. "I thought..." Fiona whispered, she then noticed Charlie's facial expression. "I'm sorry." Fiona stated as she shot past Charlie, "Fi." Charlie whispered, but Fiona wasn't going to come back.
Fiona made her way into a far corner; she began to text someone. Fiona then noticed the champagne tray, she looked around before taking one of the glasses and sipping it. She then took another one, "Bottom's up." Fiona stated as she downed the champagne.
