I Disclaim: I have no Rights or association to Degrassi or any of the characters... but we already know that now don't we.

The year was 2004, It was the year that had changed me life. With so much drama each day it was natural to let loose and party each night. There were days when Sean and I would be serious and buckled down on our school work, but those parties where our drug of choice, hell all of ours really. It was pretty laughable actually. When Towerz brought Liberty into our circle that year we were skeptical. She was a nerd by all definitions but if Towerz saw something in her we had to give her a chance. She was a cool person to our suprise, and she could definately party with the best of us. Our clique was good for her, we encouraged her to get contacts, changed her hair, wardrobe, piereced her ears, and eventually coaxed her to pierce her tounge. By 2005 she had completly changed her image. Little by little she became one of the family, but not with out a lot of work.

"Guys, are you sure Towerz is going to like this new look."

"Lib you have got to live a little, loosen up. I bet you don't even know how to fight." Alex chuckled.

"Well I prefer to avoid confrontations Alex." Liberty said as she examined the Make-up tubes that Ellie were using on her face.

"First off, stop talking like that, save that smart shit for school and the bedroom." Alex laughed.

"Ok," Liberty laughed as well.

"I'm going teach you how to be tough Lib, so nobody will ever think to mess with you or your man."

"Listen to her Libs," Ellie responded as she put her finishing touches on Liberty's new look, "Alex knows her stuff."

"Ok Lib, say some skank girl tries to press up on Towerz at the Party tonight, I am going to show you exactly what to do."

Ding Dong

"Mommy, people are here!" Mykel said happily as she ran into the kitchen to find Ellie.

"Ok, everything is ready." Ellie said as Sean came in from out back.

"The Grill is all fired up babe, it looks like the weather is gonna cooperate with us this afternoon." Sean said as he picked Kelly up.

"Are you ready for your party," Sean said happily.

"I'm ready for my presents." Mykel giggled as Sean rolled his eyes and laughed as Ellie opened the door.

"Spinner!" Ellie said ecstatically as she gave him a huge hug.

"Hey Ellie, Sean," Spinner smiled as he entered the house pulling his small son in behind him. "You guys remember my son Kevin, Tina will be right up."

"Of course we remember Kevin," Ellie smiled, she had always thought the boy was a little off, he was going on three, and she had yet to hear him speak, he would just stare at someone blankly whenever they asked him a question.

"Kelly this is our friend Spinner, do you remember meeting him when you where little?" Sean ask his daughter.

"No, but did you bring me a present Mr. Spitter?" Mykel asked as she stuck out her hands.

"Kelly that is so rude," Ellie scolded.

"It's ok Ellie," Spinner laughed. "Your present will be up in just a sec, would you and Kevin like to go play." Spinner smiled as Mykel looked his son up and down.

"Mommy do I have to," Mykel whined.

"Yes! now take Kevin outside and give him a ride in that new Power Wheels jeep your dad brought you." Ellie forced Spinner a smile as she noticed Sean slip Mykel a five dollar bill causing her to grab Kevin's hand and skip away happily.

"So, Spitter my man, how's married life treating you." Sean joked trying to spark a conversation.

"Very funny man, at least she was close, I have been called much worse." Spinner laughed. "But the married life it's great, um you know um ,Tina and I are so happy." Spinner said hesitantly as he began to sweat.

"That's great," Ellie said as she sat down next to Sean.

"Gavin, I thought I told you to come back out and get this present from the car," Tina said angrily as she came into the house.

"I'm so sorry honey," Spinner said as he jumped up and grabbed the box from his wife.

"And take this baby, I'm tired of holding him, here's your carrier you know he loves it when you carry him that way." Tina demanded as she handed Spinner their four month old son and his Baby Bjorn carrier, as Spinner rolled his eyes and went to the bathroom to get the baby situated.

"Hello to you to Tina." Ellie said rudely.

"Oh yea Hi," Tina said as she rolled her eyes and walked past Sean and Ellie. "Is my son out back."

"I didn't know you could have children if you had a dick Tina," Jay said to as he walked out of his room, causing Sean and Ellie to laugh hysterically.

"Whatever Jay," Tina said as she rolled her eyes and walked outside.

"Thank you so much Jay," Ellie said gratefully.

"I hate her so it's whatever; did Alex get back yet." Jay asked a little concerned.

"No man she's been gone all day." Sean said as he got up from the couch.

"I know how long she's been gone Sean, I just want to know when she's coming back."Jay was thinking about going out to look for her just as she she walked in the door.

"Alex hon, I can't believe you did that," Paige laughed as she and Alex walked in the house, Alex holding Paige's daughter proudly.

"Hey, did I walk in on something I shouldn't have?" Alex asked as she saw all the blank stares at her in the room.

"Paige!?!" Ellie asked excited and confused, it was like seeing a ghost.

"Yea it's me." Paige chuckled nervously. "In the flesh."

"And a lot of it at that." Jay smirked as Ellie and Alex through him an evil look.

"Wow,"Ellie started changing the subject. "Is this your baby?"

"Yea this is my daughter Alexia Rose." Paige smiled as Jay's eye's widened.

"Alex can I talk to you in the room for a minute."

"Not right now Jay," Alex said with a fake smile she already knew what was coming, why did she encourage Paige to come to this party again, oh yeah the same reason Paige invited Amy, she had temporarily lost her mind.

"I'm going to go change her," Paige said quickly as she grabbed her daughter out of Alex's arms.

"You can change her in my daughter's room upstairs, Ellie said as she started to walk towards the steps. "Come on, follow me."

"Jay, try to calm down man," Sean told his friend. He knew exactly what his friend was thinking and could see the anger building inside him. Jay just rolled his eyes as he paced back and forth for a few seconds.

"Alex I-" Jay started, but was cut off by Spinner happily walking towards him.

"Jay, No way man, I haven't seen you in forever." Spinner laughed as he tried to slap five with Jay with out knocking his son in the head.

"Spinster," Jay snickered. "Why do you have a baby attached to you? Oh that's right you turned gay with that DA dude." Jay said now laughing hysterically.

"Ha ha, very funny, I'm gonna need for you to stop calling Tina a man, it really upsets her." Spinner said sternly.

"Whatever you say mom," Jay laughed as he pulled Spinner into the kitchen.

"Alex, what were you thinking bringing Paige here." Sean started.

"I was thinking here is one of my friends who has been practically hiding from the world for the past three years. I know, what better place than my niece's Birthday party, than to get her back with her old friends again, and away from the asshole she is living with. I don't need your lecturing Sean. I could care less how you or Jay feel about Paige, because we are just friends, and I am helping my friend." Alex shook her head as she pushed past Sean and went out back to find Mykel.

"Is it safe to come in," Liberty laughed as she and her five year old daughter walked up to the screen door.

"Liberty!" Sean smiled as he pulled the door open, "how you doing ma," He pulled her into a big hug and pulled her back when he felt himself get kicked in the stomach.

"Whoa, that baby is really moving in there!" Sean exclaimed.

"You should feel it from my end." Liberty laughed she took Mykel's present from her daughter and gave it to Sean.

"You remember my daughter Justice right Sean, I know we are hardly ever there whenever you and Jay come by the house." Liberty explained as her daughter smiled and gave Sean a hug.

"How can I forget my girl Justice." Sean said as he hugged her back "Where's Towerz?" Sean questioned.

"Oh he will be right back he went to go pick up Justice's best friend Taryn, it's ok if she comes right?"

"I don't care, it is gonna be enough screaming kids here anyway once the kids from Kelly's daycare start coming." Sean sighed.

"Mommy can I go out back, I see uncle Jay." Justice said with pleading eyes.

"Go ahead." Liberty replied as she eased down on the couch.

"Can I get you anything to make you more comfortable Lib?" Sean asked sincerely.

"Unless you can schedule me a Cesarean section, then no." Liberty laughed.

"Liberty!" Ellie exclaimed as she ran down the steps.

" Hey Elle," Liberty smiled as she tried to get back up.

"No don't get up," Ellie said as she sat down on the couch next to her to give her a hug. "He's going to be a big one, I know you can not wait until he's born," Ellie smiled as she gently rubbed Liberty's stomach causing the baby inside to calm down his kicking.

"Two weeks and counting," Liberty sighed "Oh my gosh Ellie you have the magic touch he has been kicking like crazy for hours."

"I do what I can." Ellie joked as she looked up to see Paige coming down the steps.

"Thanks Ellie, for letting me put her down up there." Paige said as she came down the steps.

"Paige?" Liberty said astonished.

"Oh hey Liberty," Paige gave Liberty a weak smile as she walked past her and over towards Sean. "Where did Alex go?"

"Out back." Sean replied casually.

"Thanks," Paige said as she headed towards the back door.

"She gained a bit of weight there eh." Liberty smirked. She never had liked Paige.

"Be nice Lib, she's Alex's friend." Ellie said sarcastically.

"I thought that was Alex I heard fussing when I was coming up the steps," Liberty said changing the subject.

"You know her and Jay are living with us now." Sean interjected.

"Get out, how's that working out for you." Liberty asked as the doorbell rang.

"Great, it really is." Ellie replied as Sean went to get the door.

"Hi Mr. Kelly's dad." Some of Kelly's friends from Daycare said as they ran through the door. Their mothers entering shortly behind them.

"Hey, the party is out back we'll be out there soon, have fun." Ellie said as she glanced at Sean who was trying to hold back his comments.

"Remember Sean they are invited so we don't have to spend so much on presents for Kelly." Ellie laughed.

"I'll keep telling myself that," Sean laughed as he went outside on the front porch.

"Paige I just can't believe you're here." Spinner said for the fifth time already. He had bombarded her the minute she had stepped outside and wouldn't leave her side despite the angry looks he was getting from Tina.

"I was thinking the same thing Spinner," Paige said half-heartily as she watched Alex and Jay talk on the other side of the yard.

"I don't want us to fight today Jay," Alex took Jay's hands into her own and smiled. "Do it for Kelly ok."

"Alex I don't know, or care what you and Ms. Priss had going on behind my back, all I'm saying is this, it's time for it to stop. I haven't even thought about cheating on you in five years, so I think you owe me at least that." Jay said sincerely.

"Jay I-" Jay cut Alex off and shook his head.

"Don't even answer, we won't fight today." Jay said as he gave Alex a deep kiss all the while making eye contact with an extremely hurt Paige. A Paige who was on the verge of tears.

"Paige!!!" Marco screamed as he ran up and hugged her.

"Marco," Paige said happily temporarily forgetting the disappointment she was experiencing.

"I feel like I am seeing your ghost, where have you been, I haven't heard from you in about three years."

"I've been around Marco just working and raising my daughter." Paige smiled.

"Daughter, oh no we are catching up right here right now." Marco said as he pulled up a chair.

"I was wondering when you where going to get here man," Sean said as he slapped five with Towerz and handed his gift for Mykel to Ellie.

"You been doing ok Towerz?" Ellie questioned as Towerz nodded. "And who is this pretty little girl right here?"

"Hi I'm Taryn, you must be Miss Ellie, thank you for letting me come to your house today," Ellie was impressed, this was one of the most polite five year olds she had ever met.

"Don't let that act fool you," Liberty laughed. "You are definitely going to be a lawyer someday little girl.

"Whatever you say aunt Lib," Taryn laughed, "Where's Justice at?"

"Everyone's outside," Sean said as Towerz went to help Liberty up.

"Yeah we were just waiting for you guys," Ellie smiled. "Anyone else who comes can meet us around back."

"You know Taryn reminds me of someone," Sean said to Ellie as he went to lock the door after everyone else had went out back.

"I guess, why are you locking the door?" Ellie questioned. "Craig, and Ashley aren't here yet."

"Good, maybe they will think that nobody's home," Sean laughed as he pulled Ellie towards the back door.
