Stevie walked into the empty music room of the degrassi during lunch.She had too much on her mind to even think about lunch.Her parents just went out of town and left one of her dumb brothers in charge.And all he did was make Stevie his own personal slave.She had to clean up after the party he threw recently.Well more of last night if she could remember exactly.Her brother and his friends keeping her up the whole night with people busting into her room randomly to hook up.But in the end getting a very pissed and violent Stevie instead.
All she wanted right now was to relax and maybe some sleep.She pulled up her gray skinny jeans and tugged on the bottom of her black star wars shirt.Stevie did not care if she skipped the rest of her class.Just while she had some time to her self.The music room was perfect no one was gonna show until later in the day so she could just hide away in her for now.She walked in with her guitar case slumped over her shoulder and sat it down on the floor.Stevie pulled her guitar out of the case next to her and strummed one of the strings.She slowly hit each string once and started playing the beginning of Carly Rae Jepsen's call me maybe.A smiled appeared on her face as she got more into the song.Stevie even standing up and dancing around a little.When ever she played this song and made her feel energetic for some reason.In seconds she did not even feel sleepy anymore or think about her brothers all she thought about was the lyrics.As soon as she reached the chorus she started sing along with the song without thinking."Your stare was holdin' ,Ripped jeans, skin was showin 'Hot night, wind was blowin 'Where you think you're going, baby?"Stevie sang to her self like she always practiced.

[/img][/center] Matt had spent is morning in search of what he wanted to wear to school today, he decided on a pair of red skinny jeans, a black and white graphic tee and his high topped Nikes. He walked down stairs listening to his mother talk with his little sister about how amazing Degrassi was. Matt shook his head and scowled a bit, he had been there 3 years thus far and saw nothing truly amazing. A couple flings, a couple hook ups and a good athletic program was about it. Matt's mom set the table with breakfast and he walked into the bathroom, brushing his teeth and spiking his hair. When he was done with hygiene he returned to the kitchen and sat down poking at his food. Matt looked at the plate of pancakes and eggs unamused getting up walking to the bread cabinet and and he grabbed a bagel. The look on his mother's face was priceless and he gave her a little smirk popping his bagel into the toaster oven. "What? I don't want to eat that shit." He said stubborn walking to the fridge grabbing the cream cheese. Matt looked the fridge for a moment and grabbed a Gatorade then walked over to the toaster. When his bagel was toasted he took it out burning his finger. "Owww Fuck!" He cursed tossing the hot bread on the counter. Abbie came over and put the cream cheese on for him and kissed his finger better, she was always the little sister to be a bit protective and loving when he needed it. Matt took his bagel and walked to the good grabbing his book bag and his skateboard. He walked out the door getting on his skate board balancing himself as he made his way to that thing full of drama, called high school.
When Matt arrive he sat down on the front stairs, he took a couple bites of his bagel and rested his foot on his skateboard. His golden eyes skimmed the cheer leaders that walked by and they giggled waving and whispering. Matt shook his head and gave a cocky smile, then continued to eat. To be honest girls came and went in and out of his life, and at times his anger got the best of him and caused him to lose a select few girls he thought he had future with. Then again he couldn't help his anger at times, it got out of control. Matt finished his bagel, there was a good half hour before first period and he didn't feel like rushing into the school. He took a few sips of his Gatorade and set it aside watching the jocks gathering outside the school talking about the football game. He himself was the captain of the soccer team so football was irreverent but he was friends with a couple of them. Then he heard footsteps that snapped him out of his moment of ADHD and he saw his French teacher, he smirked and got up walking with her into the building his skateboard in hand, he did adore his french class but now he had to grabbed his books. Matt went through a couple classes before lunch and he looked down at his shoes when he walked the hall way. His stomach wasn't craving so he'd do something different, the music room. Matt stopped at his locker tossing his first couple periods book in and walked to the music room. The sound of guitar and a beautiful voice filled his ears and he lipped along with hte song she sung. It was catchy. Matt smirked walking by her to the piano but instead of playing he just sat down and watched the girl. When she was finished, or seemed it, Matt raised his eyebrow. "Your pretty good at that." Matt said chewing the inside of for a moment. "I'm Matt.. and who might you be?" He said, Abbie his little sister always told him to make friends or at least attempt so there was his first shot at breaking the ice.

Stevie was rocking her hips to the beat unaware to the eye's watching her.But she did jump from hearing a voice and quickly turned around.She didn't expect anyone to hear her better yet not see her dancing.She bit her lip in embarrassment an old habit she could never stop.She then took in the stranger that was next to the piano watching her and slightly blushed when he said she sounded pretty good.She raised one eyebrow and looked him in the eye's."You really think so?"She was surprised to even get a complement today.
Maybe her day is looking up for her.She could of sworn she saw him before maybe in the halls or after class.Stevie looked him up and down taking in all of him.Wow he was cute like most of the guys at degrassi but she felt like she was getting pulled in by his golden eye's.She blinked and sat her guitar back down in its case."Please tell me you did not see all of that."She said with a playful smirk.When he said his name it all became clear to her who he was Matt.One of her brothers took her to some of the degrassi soccer games and she saw him on the field.Stevie also heard some of the girls around the school talking about him to but you cant always judge a book by its cover."Stevie Johnson"She put her hands on her hips and walked towards him."So Matt... not to be rude but what brings you to the music room.I mean other then my little show."She was happy to meet new people it helps her get out of the house away from her brothers and she could have some fun in the process.An a plus Matt didn't seem so bad so far.

The shock Stevie had caused him to raise an eyebrow, he was unsure why she even questioned his compliment. But being at Degrassi for as long as he had been made him realize a lot of people were different and a lot of people questioned themselves in many ways. Sexuality, Popularity and even tested their own insecurity. Matt bit his bottom lip, "Yeah, I do think so I know talent when I see it Sweetie." Matt replied, he was complimenting for her ego, nor to get into her pants just stating he liked what he heard, Matt was different then most guys. The next question caused him to shrug and look at her with indecisiveness. "I really don't know why I'm here, I have lunch but I'm not exactly hungry for food, I rather sit here and observe, and play." Matt said as he turned his body and looked at the piano keys, he played piano for many years writing songs and writing music. It soothed him at times one of his copping mechanisms to deal with his anger issues. Matt placed his finger on the keys and started to play, he closed his eyes and let the music take a hold of his soul and he played some Alicia Keys cover he had been practicing, a smirk creased his lips when he was done and he looked back to Stevie. "Your in what grade...wait...let me guess, either sophomore or freshman cause your not in any of my classes." Matt assumed trying to make conversation.
His golden eyes skimmed the room and caught her and at first he ignored her comment about "Please tell me you did not see all of that." But now it brought him curiosity. "And what wasn't I suppose to see beautiful?" Matt questioned raised his eyebrow and he gave her his heart melting smile. He was a flirt but he had done a lot of that his first two years at Degrassi it was time for change, time to make friends and memories that would last forever.

"Thanks Matt. " A warm smile replaced the shocked look she held earlier.She did not feel confident about her singing voice but her guitar playing was another story.She spent years working and perfecting it an no one could ever make her question her skills.But after hearing the complement from Matt It felt like a huge stroke to her ego.It made her relax more slowly letting her guard down.She did not trust the upper class men that much because most of them did not like niners.Yet she came across some upper class men who were cool.So far Matt seemed like one of them and he was some what cute so that was a plus in her book. "Yeah I'm a Freshmen and what are you?" A bright smile appeared on her lips as he played the piano.She watched as his fingers ran across the keys on the piano as he played a Alicia Keys cover.She knew the song and swayed a little back an forth as he played.He was good he must of been playing for years because he sounded like a professional.
"Wow your really good how long have you been playing?" She slowly walked towards Matt and sat down next to him.She was never really popular but that never mattered to her because she was always in her own little world doing her thing.She was the type of person who would start dancing first at the party or dances.She always went with the flow when it came to everything only caution at times when she feels uncomfortable with showing some her emotions.But right her and now she was in her element music she did not care what else was going on and after Matt finished up and smiled and looked him in his eyes.Hazel gazed back at golden she quickly looked away and pulled some of her hair behind her ear. "My little song and dance back there. Not my best moment." She joked and chuckled slightly.Stevie looks back at him and watches him with amusement since he walked into the room.Looks like her day was turning around since she got to school.Even though she seems sleepy a few minutes ago she felt fully awake since she started talking to Matt he just put her mind at ease what she really needed right now.

Cracking his knuckles and directing his attention to Stevie caused him to smile. "I'm a junior, when I ain't skipping school." Matt said with a wink, she seemed to be in awe due to his piano playing and it made him feel a bit confident. "I've been playing for years, like a lot of years. It's a passion thing. I also play guitar and sing but we wont try that here at school. No tellin' who is going to walk through those doors when I'm singing my heart out. They might get the wrong image of me." Matt explained he was tough, he was a jock and he didn't care to have that reputation tainted with he plays instruments and sings. Matt sucked his teeth and ruffled his hair. Then when she explained what he wasn't suppose to see he smirked and zipped his lips. "My lips are sealed." Matt said with a smile, he didn't think she was doing bad at all even if it wasn't her best moment as she claimed. "When we are not in out best moments we are usually having the most fun." Matt said, he was very opinionated and when it came to his views on life he liked to share them to see if others thought the same way. Yeah she was a freshman, yet she was cool in his boo thus far. He thought about what he was doing for his next few hours. He only had two more classes, maybe he could hang out with Stevie after school. Of course he drove and maybe she'd like to hang out. Freshman were use to trying to find people to fit in with, so he figured she wouldn't deny his request. "Maybe after school we could chill, go down to the lake, walk the woods. I can get to know you, and vice versa. What do you say?" Matt asked cocking his head looking at the clock. The bell was about to ring, and he wanted to just get the rest of the school day over.

Stevie was really surprised that he was such a good piano player being a jock. Well turns out he was a junior she made a note to herself that he skipped look like they had that in common other than music. Years of playing the guitar made her more than confident in her skills she could play it anywhere in front of anyone. To her it seemed like he truly had a passion for it. She could tell by the way, he played the keys."You can play guitar and sing? Wow what can't you do Matt."Stevie smirked and looked back at him with one of her hands on her chin."Like what kind of ideas. I think you would get more fan girls chasing you around."She teased and chuckled as she threw her head back dramatically. Stevie felt better when Matt said his lips were sealed. She mimicked him and did the same."And I won't tell anyone about all the things you can do."She zipped her lips and smirked."When you say it like that it makes me feel much better."Matt sounded a bit wise for his age in her mind. He was way far better then what she imagined he would be like. More cool and laid back."Sure, I don't have anything planned after school anyway. It will be fun."
