...I ship Zaya and everything hurts. We still don't know much about them [so I could be writing them completely OOC, oops] but they're cute :3
I don't own Degrassi, yadda yadda yadda, alternate ending for the niner's storyline tonight. Enjoy :D

"There you are," Zig smiled, relieved when he saw Maya was still waiting for him.

"I was about to think you were standing me up," Maya grinned back, standing up from her seat on the bench. "How'd that talk with Tori go?"

"It...went," he grimaced, "she slapped me."

"Ouch."

"Yeah, I wish she hadn't been wearing a ring," he chuckled slightly, running a hand over his jaw. Maya felt guilty.

"I'm sorry, this is my fault, I shouldn't have told you to talk to her-"

"It's fine," Zig shook his head. "We needed to clear up the air. Besides, I kinda wanted to thank you."

"For what?"

"I feel better about the break up. Now I don't feel bad...for wanting what I want." He bit his lip slightly, embarrassed by his statement. He focused his eyes on the cars passing instead of the blushing girl in front of him.

Maya readjusted the glasses on her face, letting a few seconds pass before she was sure her face had returned to its original color.

She cleared her throat. "So...you promised me ice cream from The Dot?" She said hopefully.

"Yeah, I did," he reached for her bag and threw it over his shoulder. She had just started to protest when he said "It's not your cello!"

She shook her head with laughter. "You're unbelievable."

With the way her smile lit up her face and her eyes shined behind her glasses, Zig couldn't help but think, and so are you.

..And scene. There's a slight TVD reference in there [one of Damon's lines] If you caught it, kudos to you! If not, oh well. Let me know what you think? :)
