The Dot Grill; Monday Afternoon; 3:06 PM

"She had a boyfriend that abused her and he was different like she thinks you are different and her and different don't mix" Eli filled in as he talked to Adam. The two sat in the corner of the Dot drinking chocolate milkshakes.

"So that's it. She and I are over?" he asked in disbelief

"Adam" Eli sighed "there never was a you and Fiona"

"i wish there were," he groaned finishing off his shake.

Eli couldn't help but think about what Fiona had said earlier that day "I like normal and down to earth guys like you" it was weird. Did that mean that she liked him or was she being nice. A girl like Fiona Coyne liking him was completely crazy. She was beautiful like a goddess almost too perfect for words and he was just Eli a boy with a messed up past and a girlfriend.

"Hey earth to dream boy" Adam snapped his fingers in Eli's face

"what?" he asked breaking away from his thoughts

"want to go to the comic book store?" Adam asked "the new issue is out." he grinned

"uh rain check?" Eli raised an eyebrow

"sure man but are you alright?" Adam asked "usually your all over a new comic" he laughed

"I'm just tired that's all. I'm just going to go home for the day"

"alright man see you tomorrow" Adam said as he exited the Dot.

Eli tossed some money down to pay the bill and walked to his hearse parked along the street. He just couldn't get the conversation he and Fiona had at lunch off his mind.


Degrassi Community School; Tuesday Afternoon; 12:31 PM

"this seat taken?" Fiona asked holding her lunch tray

"oh no" Eli said breaking away from his train of thought and pushing his books to free the seat. Fiona sat down on the red wooden bench. "where's Clare?" she asked eating a frie

"sick with the flu" Eli sighed "I have been alone all day"

"no Adam?" Fiona asked. Eli didn't notice a change of tone in her voice when she mentioned Adam like he did with his friend when he went on and on about Fiona.

"root canal" Eli chuckled a bit. He knew Adam would punch him right now

"ooh" Fiona winced "that stinks. Is he still hung up on the whole party thing?"

"what do you think?" Eli asked rolling his eyes

"you told him why right?" Fiona arched her eyebrow

"he still is upset. He is really into you and when Adam likes someone he likes someone" Eli replied

"I can't just like him because he likes me a lot. He would get more pain from me faking my feelings than he does now" Fiona sighed "boys are frustrating"

"tell me about it" Eli said in a gay voice. He flipped his hair behind his shoulder.

Fiona laughed and Eli joined in. The warning bell rang and Fiona scooped up her bag and tossed her trash away. "thanks for letting me sit with you. Holly J had a meeting"

"not a problem" Eli smirked "anytime you need a seat you can sit with us"

"you sure Clare wouldn't mind? Adam too?" she asked as they approached the steps.

"Uh maybe but they will have to deal" Eli laughed.

"Bye" Fiona waved and they two parted they ways to class.


Fiona Coyne's Condo; Tuesday Night; 6:17 PM

"Eli? Really Fiona?" Holly J asked as she scrunched up her nose

"what?" the brunette shirked "he's cute, and really funny"

"he is best friends with the boy who is like in love with you and he is with baby Edwards" Holly J rolled her eyes as her and Fiona sat on the couch lounging around

"relax I'm not going to jump his bones. I just like him a little bit. But were two different people so it would never work out" Fiona sighed

"don't be doubtful Fiona. He is crazy to not like you. Well if he was single and not friends with Adam" Holly J laughed

"yeah well I just got wait for things to cool with Adam and maybe things will happen" Fiona smiled and sipped her soda.
