A/N: Was anyone else heartbroken when they found out Degrassi wasn't coming back after that shocking season premeire until 2012? I'm shocked and annoyed and...rrrrrrgh.

"Katlyn!" I cried. I shook her and eventually she woke up. "Are you okay?" I asked.

She nodded. "Just a bit lightheaded. No..." she looked around. "Come with me. I have to tell you something."

We went into the hallway and she stopped and faced me seriously. "I know you've been wondering about me. Why I've been missing school, why I've been secretive..." she trailed off. I gave her a comforting hug. "I have cancer. Leukemia. Since I was nine."

"Oh my gosh...I don't know what to say. Like...are you...I..."

"I'm fine for now. I'm in remission, meaning the cancer isn't here and hurting me and making me sick right now. But sometimes I get lightheaded and that one week...I was in the hospital because they thought it was coming back. It wasn't, so they decided I could leave."

"I'm sorry, I've been a jerk. I didn't know—"

"Because I didn't want you to know, to start treating me sick. I'm not sick, I'm fine. I'm fine," she repeated, because I didn't look convinced.

"Okay. Should we go back? Or do you want to go home?"

"I want to go back."

"Are you sure? I can call my mom..."

"No. I want to act normal. Let's go back, gamble a little, have fun. Please?" She gave me the puppy eyes, one of her specialties.

"Okay," I said, smiling.

We spent the rest of the night together, but I had gained a new perspective on her. The part of her she keeps closed off is hiding something she doesn't want anyone to know, and it was sad she had no one to confide in besides me. I decided to be there for her no matter what.

A/N: I refuse to update until I get more reviews. Got it? Even if it's just update soon, I want reviews.

And another thing. I got bored writing old season 10 episodes so I started with season 11. Next chapter will be the episodes that came out over the summer. It's gonna go all the way to the new episode from last night! Eep! Did anyone else love that? But no, eclare for the win. Just saying. Review!
