Hey Guys! Sorry I haven't uploaded in a while! I've been getting ready for school and stuff. Trying to get my sleeping back on track considering school starts in 2 weeks and I have to start getting up at 7:00 in the morning. Oh also there's this huge hurricane coming towards my city as I type so, that's definitively going to delay me as well. But anyway's back to the story!
I wonder if everyone could hear my head throbbing against the desk. I haven't been this hung over in a while. I then I felt something hit me on my arm. I looked up to see a note. I looked around but no one was looking at me. I opened it up slowly.
I know a hangover when I see one ;)
I looked up again and saw Bianca smirking. I sighed and smiled softly. I uncapped my pen and wrote.
Hopefully it's not that obvious.
I tossed the paper across the room while Coach Armstrong wasn't looking. I watched her laugh and write before tossing the paper back to me.
Well, I noticed from personal experience. Have you talked to Eli?
I looked up to see her looking at me. I shook my head. Coach Armstrong then cleared his throat. B and I quickly looked at him. "I hope you girls are talking about the reproductive system." A flurry of giggles echoed throughout the class room. Coach rolled his eyes and turned back to the chalkboard.
I slammed my locker shut and checked my phone. No new messages. I hope Imogen's here today. She blew off our date and has her phone off. "Eli!" A familiar voice called.
I turned to see Clare walking towards me. I sighed. Once she caught up with me she smiled. "I just want to thank you again. It really means a lot." she said touching my shoulder
I walked in to the Degrassi Daily office to see Clare typing away on her laptop. I knocked on the door and she turned around. "What do you want, Eli?" she asked
I walked in and sat down on the seat across from her. I slid the packet across the table over to her. She looked with a questionable look on her face. "What is this?" she asked
I smirked. "I didn't spend 3 hours after school re-writing this for nothing. Shock came over her face and she picked up the script and read. After about 15 minutes she put the play down. She was smiling weakly. "It's beautiful, Eli. Thank you."
I nodded my head and rose from my seat and took the script from her gently. I was walking down the hall when I heard Clare call after me. She was in the doorway. "What made you change your mind?" she asked
"Someone finally helped me realize that what I did was childish and immature. I'm sorry I didn't realize it sooner Clare." I said. She smiled and nodded before walking back inside. I pulled out my phone and dialed my most recent number.
"Hi, this is Imogen. Sorr-"
I hung up. She was still ignoring me.
"No problem, Clare. I really can't talk now." I said looking around for Imogen.
I heard a familiar laugh and turned around. Imogen was walking with Bianca laughing about something. The laughter stopped immediately. Bianca gave Imogen a look before walking away. I walked up to Imogen. She had her arms crossed. "I changed the play." I said. She nodded "Yeah, I heard." I sighed.
"Imogen, I'm sorry. The play was immature. I should of just handled Clare's and I's break up like a man. I'm sorry." I said. "What you did was the right thing Eli but, I'm not the one you need to apologize to." she said looking at something intently over my shoulder. I looked over and saw Clare still standing there. I turned back to Imogen. "I already showed her the new script and apologized. She accepted."
Imogen bit her lip and nodded. "Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but your in debt to me for blowing me off." I said smirking. She laughed. "That's right I am." she teased
"Well I think the million dollar question is how are you going to make it up to me?" I asked wrapping my arm around her shoulder
"We can hang out tonight. Dinner at Little Miss Steaks?" she asked
"One condition. I pay." I said as we walked down the hall
"Mom! Are you ready yet? I yelled from the bathroom. "Almost!" she yelled back
I fixed my hair which was wavy and pinned up into a with some strands hanging out. I checked my outfit. I decided to go classic. A strapless black satin dress with a thick leather belt over around my waist and black satin pumps.
"I'm ready." my mom yelled.
I walked downstairs to see my mom in a deep blue dress and black heels. I rolled my eyes. "I don't understand why you have to get dolled up to take me somewhere." I said grabbing my bag and walking out.
"Oh hush and get in the car." she said closing the door.
I walked into Little Miss Steaks and was greeted by K.C Guthrie. He smiled. "Hey Imogen. You look great." he said
I smiled politely "Thanks." I watched him check me out intensely
"Um is Eli here?" I asked
"Oh. Um yeah. Follow me."
I followed him to a booth near the back. I saw Eli looking at his cell phone. He saw me and put his phone away and stood up.
"You two enjoy your meal. A waitress will be here soon." We both thanked him and sat down
"You look-" Eli started
"Aww! Look at the cute couple!" a voice said
I felt my heart drop from my chest to my stomach.
"Remember me, box cutter? Your girlfriend brother." Ryan said stumbling over to us. Great he was drunk.
"Ryan get out of here and go get a cab. Your drunk."
"H-Hey! Who-o are you to judge me for being drunk, Miss Everclear!" he slurred. Eli looked at me.
"Okay man you need to go. Were just trying to have a good time." Eli said rising
"Ohhhh. Trying to have a good time with my sister huh? Want some advice, box cutter?"
My eyes grew wide. Eli just stared at me. "Advice?" he asked shocked
"Lick he ear lobe, man. She goes crazy." Ryan said snikering
My eyes weld up with tears. Eli had a disgusted look on his face. He started walking towards the exit. "Eli wait!"
"No! I'm not going to wait! Your own brother? That's disgusting!" he yelled
"He's not my real brother." I said only loud enough for us to hear.
"Good luck with him, because he's the only guy your ever gonna have." he said. My heart broke when I heard him say skank under his breath. I watched him walk out and then felt Ryan's around me.
Review, review, review!
