âItâll all be worth it, you know. The rest of us will be here and youâll be living your dreams and traveling the world. Just donât forget us small people on the way up,â Vanessa teased. âBut seriously, From what Iâve seen, off day, good day, or bad day youâre still one of the best players that team is ever gonna have.â Her voice was encouraging, the natural caregiver in herself coming out the more she spoke. It was a softness, a gentleness, a subtly that most people couldnât put their tongues on. â
And she could feel her skin getting warmer, as Vanessa closed the carpet space between them, almost wanting to hold the moment between them and allow his words to sink in. The height difference more than obvious even with them sitting down. âYou may know someone?â Vanessa grinned, a small giggle escaping. She hid her excitement, but Vanessa could feel her heart pounding through her chest wanting to scream yes. âI wouldnât pay much attention to the other players,â Vanessa spoke., words coming out before she heard herself.
Eyes wide and cheeks growing red, âWait no, not like, cause I wanna watch you per say, more so because youâre the only one I now. Not, wait, not like I donât wanna watch you either because Iâm sure youâre great and fun to watch andâŠ.â she rambled. âIâm⊠gonna stop talking now.â
âI could never forget about the small town folk, especially since I see someone being there with me,â he wasnât sure the undertones in his words. Not realizing he was thinking about her still being in his life, even if he meant one of his friends when he began his sentence he realized it didnât stick to them. âThank you Vanessa, that means a lot coming from someone who isnât a puck bunny or trying to get an in,â
He watched her move closer, his instinct telling him to reach out and pull her in but he instead stood where he was his gaze drawing to her shorter form as she got closer. âThereâs a possibility, I happen to know how to pull strings,â ignoring the small swell of his heart as he heard that sweet giggle coming from her mouth. And it was because of him, a soft smile tugging at his lips.
Listening in amusement as she spoke, watching and listening with his arms crossed. A soft chuckle falling from his lips before he stepped closer, âI prefer knowing your eyes are all on me, truth be told I play a little better knowing youâre there,â he spoke grabbing her around the waist, pulling her in and softly pressing his lips to hers.

âNot that Iâm complaining about the company,â Luke called out, clearly checking the girlâs body out. Heâd seen the girl around, hanging around the bottle blondes and spirit squad sluts mostly, and there was always something about her that drew him in. The girlâs dark features contrast drastically with his All American look and she always seemed to have this air about her. The guys had mentioned her name i the locker room, stories of her in the boiler room and better at the ravine. âYou gotta name beautiful?â
She shook her head lightly, a small smirk playing on her features. She enjoyed the attention, and maybe that was why she built the reputation she had. âI like to believe Iâm great company, been told it once or twice,â a small shrug as she slowly made her way closer to him. Taking a spot on the opposite end of the couch, crossing her legs as she looked back over at him. She recognized him from around the halls, hearing a few different stories about the type of person he was. But believing none of what she heard about anyone till she actually got to know them, she was intrigued with what she heard to say the least. âAmelia, and yourself handsome?â

once they speakers and outside voices finally seemed to drown out, vanessa realized it really was just her and mike. she knew what the game meant and what most of her friends were planning on doing once they with their respective crushes, but for vanessa the way wasnât as clear. vanessa wasnât as comfortable as those around her in being undressed or the catcalling from the boys during gym. boys like mike dallas. it would be a lie to say she didnât keep her ear somewhat pressed onto the grapevine around Guelph in regards to the boy. vanessa knew the stories, the whispers, and from the way girls swooned just to get a smile there had to be some light to them.Â
but vanessa didnât want to let that sway her too much. after all, if thatâs what dallas was into or wanted to doââshe wasnât what he wanted. the girls at their school hiked their skirts up, applied make up like walking instagram filters, and tight fitting uniforms. vanessa on the other-hand only had her small size going for her which forced her skirt to be above her knees which the basketball team happily told her time and time again.Â
right now though, sheâd enjoy whatever time she had left with him and go back to day dreaming about him and what she wished she would have had more courage to do during cheer practice. ânice to finally be formally introduced to the myth and legend that is Mike Dallas,â she joked lightheartedly. âare you⊠are you excited for the game this weekend?â
He enjoyed the air she held around her, something different than the usual people he was used to being around. It was different, he wasnt afraid to admit that. Used to girls openly spilling what they felt to him, or simply throwing themselves at them. He could sense something from her, whether it was nerves or uncomfortableness or simply something else; he wasnât sure. The words spoke about it him around the halls of degrassi wasnât anything secret, they werenât at the top of the food chain quite yet but people still liked to talk.
Dallas wasnât a stranger to the words spoken about Vanessa through the various sports team. She wasnât quite like the other girls that were more than ready to let the team do what they wanted. And that intrigued Dallas, something he kept to himself. Not for fear of what his team or the other guys would say around the halls. But because he understood her difference, she was something else around the halls and he enjoyed her presence. Dallas wanted to get to know her more and more as time passed, he just wasnât sure how to go about it.
He hoped that tonight would span more conversations and times they could be together, but for now heâd take what he could get and at least talk to her. A small chuckle falling from his lips, his tongue licking his lips slightly before nodding. âExcited, and a lil nervous as usual. No matter how many times Iâve done it theyâre still there,â he shrugged lightly, âI can only assume youâre joining us all there?â

Her hand interlocked with Dallasâ as they moved through the crowd, her friends making whooping noises as they exited. Vanessaâs heart was racing, but she hid her emotions once the much taller boy was before her. If there was one thing about their town, it was that Mike Dallas was the hometown hero. He was the guy everyone talked about getting out of her and making it someday, that alone was intimidating. Vanessa was just the little dancer girl that followed behind her much more popular friends. So to her surprise to be alone with the guy that practically the entire block had her stomach doing flips, but ever the less she kept her signature smile bright and big keeping her cool.
âOh right, duh,â she giggled off, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear.
Once she put the drinking down, she realized they were still holding hands, his grip still tight on her own. She didnât know what he expected, but she didnât want to look like an idiot either. She had been praying on that bottle all night to land on Dallas and now that she was here, she didnât want to waste it being scared. She scooted over a little, minimizing the gap between the two. âIâm uh, Vanessa by the way,â she spoke, taking a drinking from her cup.Â
It wasnt often Dallas found himself pining after the same girl for a long time. Either finding a new object of his affection or simply just stopping the interaction. Often times it was the first, and didnt help the growing rumors surrounding the Hockey golden boy. But Vanessa was different, whether it was the way she held herself differently than all the girls around the halls. Or because she was drop dead gorgeous, and he knew that even with the makeup off she would still be the most beautiful girl in the room.
his hand gave her smaller one a light squeeze, his own nerves bubbling up to the surface. but he was used to hiding his emotions and pretending to just have everything under control, not much of a worry in the back of his mind.Â
he didnt care what the two did, if they even did anything. being alone with her presence was more than enough for him, the air around them was calm no longer being over powered by the loud music and voices. âMike but everyone calls me Dallas,â he spoke, his tone low but still holding a sense of confidence somehow.

âyeah, you nextâŠ.she needs a cousinââ tori declares as she trails lia to the elevator. thinks back to when they were little girls and had it all planned out, theyâd time their pregnancies perfectly and birth two little miniature versions of themselves to do life side by side, like they have. funny when youâre a kid and think the universe works however you want it to. then you get older and come to realize almost nothing goes to plan. Â
âliaaaaââ she chimes the minute she arrives at the top floor and realizes she wasnât kidding about the dozen or so bags full of goodies for them both, âyou didnât have to! âŠbut iâm so glad you didâ carefully, she places the bassinet down beside her to sift through the selections, never one to turn down a new addition to her wardrobe, especially from the most stylish person she knows. she finds one that she absolutely must try on now, strips out of her current ensemble on the fly to slide the sleek new dress onto her frame. âwhat do we think?â she does a full spin for the other to see before padding over to the mirror to get a look for herself. pulling her abundance of curls to the top of her head, she admires the neckline, and loves it so much she just might keep it on for the rest of the day. their girlish giggles mustâve been too much commotion, because she sees her baby start to open her eyes. âthere she isâ tori grins, taking veronica out of her carrier. â âdid you say hi to auntie lia? she bought you so many cute little outfitsâ she coos, bouncing her on her hip as she grows more awake. sheâs already bigger since their final facetime call before she boarded the plane, close to 7 months and doing more by the day. âyou wanna hold her?â tori offers, holding her out for lia to take. âiâm gonna make all of us dinner, couldnât decide between lemon chicken and quesadillas so i said why not both!â she beams, excited for the collective family time. âthereâs enough for your fancy fiancĂ© if heâll be joining us anytime soonâ
âAs exciting as that would be, youâll have to talk to the fiancĂ© about that one. All work and a small amount of play,â thinking about their conversations, always playing home with their baby dolls and having cousins who were practically sisters. Growing up she was lucky to have Tori, and she always wanted to have a little girl to experience the same bond she was able to have her life. Unfortunately the universe was a fickle thing, and rarely let plans stay the way they started.
âWhat kind of cousin would I be if I didnât?â She teased, watching the way Toris face lit up as she approached the bags. A soft smile appearing on Lias face, some of the items being from her own collection or friends that she had gathered over the years. But most of them being random finds she found at various stores, and couldnât help but grab for her. âI think you look amazing and we should get a babysitter ASAP if you know what I mean,â winking with a small laugh, âI may even have a nice necklace you could pair with it, make a whole ensemble tonight,â Her gaze finally pulling from Tori as she heard a few little noises from the floor, watching Tori maneuver her out of the bassinet and balancing her perfectly on her hip. âYouâre gonna be the prettiest little girl in the world, maybe even have a great affinity for wood shop like moze from neds declassified,â she teased for a moment, making grabby hands towards her and taking her from Toris arms. âI still canât believe how big she is, it seems like yesterday I was getting a call from the hospital and a new baby was on the other end,â bouncing Veronica on her hip, spinning around every so often with a large smile, âThat honestly sounds amazing and Iâm thrilled for a home cooked meal, heâs currently at a meeting I believe. And I never know how long those are gonna last, but perhaps he will slip in and visit,â
