Student Secretary at your service. It’s an hour to serve. Ignore that.

Rasha watched the boy with soft eyes as he made it down to the ground.  At his landing, she gave him a soft smile and nodded.  “Let’s go to the bench.”  She suggested.  Walking quickly, she slid her backpack off and sat perched on the flat of her feet on the bottom of the bench while she tugged her sleeves over her hands.  Her face was pale, the dark circles almost bruise-like under her eyes.  Her eyes fluttered as if she was physically forcing them to stay open with every blink.

Winston nodded and followed short behind Rasha, a spring in his step now that he was firmly on the ground. He even plopped down on the bench with a little spring. A day with Rasha. Even if she wasn’t in the best mood, he didn’t care. He felt lucky to be spending time with her. “Do you want to talk about it?” he asked, trying to make conversation.

Giving the boy a gentle smile, Rasha shook her head.  “We can sit on the bench.”  She suggested.  She deftly slid partway down the structure before swinging and dropping safely to the ground.  “Do you need help, Winston?”  She asked pulling herself up halfway.  At the moment she would do whatever she could to avoid the boy’s questions and concerned eyes.

“Okay.” Winston sighed in relief and watched Rasha slide down. He tried to follow suit, gingerly sliding down, digging his heels into the structure for some traction. Then when he got to the part where he could drop down safely, it took him a second and he heard Rasha’s voice. “No, no, I got this,” he tried to reassure, while not being able to make eye contact. Eventually he leaped and nearly stumbled to the ground, but caught himself at the last second. “Ta-da!” He stood his ground for a moment with an almost jazz-hand like gesture as he tried to regain his composure.

Jumping at the sound of her name, the girl glanced at Winston and gave him a shaky smile.  “Uh…hi.”  She said softly, widening her base on the structure so she wouldn’t fall off.  Rasha shrugged and adjusted her backpack.  “I guess.”  She mumbled.  Looking at Winston who looked so uncomfortable on top of the steel structure, her face softened.  “We can climb down.”  She offered.  “I would not want you to get hurt.”  Her hands shook violently and she hid them in her sleeves before looking up at Winston again.

Winston clung to the edge of the surface so he wouldn’t fall. There was a reason he chose comic books over sports, he was not equipped for this. Still, he wanted to be there for Rasha in any way he could because it looked like she really needed it. “Hey, today is all about you, all right?” He smiled again at her before furrowing his brows in concern. “Are you all right?”

Rasha sat on the top of the play structure, starting out at nothing at all.  Her head was throbbing, a pain that even the ample amount of caffeine she had been drinking wouldn’t ebb.  She quickly sent Winston a text to where she was and she pulled out the package of cigarettes.  Was it something she should be doing?  She knew better, but at the moment she didn’t see much choice or any options.  She inhaled the smoke as long as she knew Winston wasn’t able to see.  Quickly, she put it out, pulling her knees up as she balanced precariously.

As soon as Winston got the text, he headed on over.  It only took Winston a short walk to get to the park and he immediately spotted her. The place was pretty much empty except for a few kids running around, but they seemed lost in their own world and Rasha — Rasha was the only one sitting up so high. 

He took a moment to look up at her, seeing if she’d come down, but she didn’t look like she much wanted to go anywhere, so he awkwardly climbed up to her and sat beside her. 

“Hey, Rasha.” He tried to smile warmly at her. “Long night, huh?”

rzuabi:

Well…I am already at a park.  How about I message you the map?

Sounds great. Meet you there.

[chcwy-blog]

rzuabi:

That would be great, Winston! No, I do not need anything.  I am okay.

Well you lead the way, m’lady.

rzuabi:

Does anyone want to go for a walk with me?  The family I’m with is throwing a party and I don’t speak Bengal…and I didn’t sleep last night and the 5 cups of coffee is making me sick.

Any takers?

Of course, Rasha. I’ll walk with you. But maybe we should get some food in you, too.

I resent the fact that you seem unsure of my goat caretaking abilities.

To be fair, I haven’t seen a single animal at the Hollingsworth house since I’ve known all of you and didn’t you kill the plant that you had in your room?

Winston waltzed into the tryouts determined. He’d even practiced a little routine. ‘We’re strong and fierce. We’ll wipe the floor with our opponents tears. Rawwrr!’ He was sure he was going to get something. Anything to get in good with the cheerleaders. 

“What do you think?” he asked once he finished his routine.

School starts tomorrow so there’s only one thing to do… stay up all night and stress out about it. I don’t have any supplies ready, you can already tell it’s going to be a good year. The only thing a girl needs is her 3 ringed binder, right? 

I’ve got some extra notebooks if you need some.

Please tell me why it’s frowned upon to adopt a baby goat as a household pet? I love my goldfish dearly, but it’s a little difficult cuddling a fish bowl.

But then you’d have to take care of it, Franks.

↳ HOW DO I BEGIN TO EXPLAIN WINSTON CHU?

Age: Fifteen Grade: Grade 10 + Extroverted, People-Person, Quirky -  Envious, Jealous, Skeptical Part of:  Wannabes

↳ GET IN LOSER, WE’RE GOING BACKGROUND HUNTING

Winston ‘Chewy’ Chu has always been in the shadows, flying under the radar, until now. He was sick of how his friend Miles would often be noticed but not him, he doesn’t understand why he is often refer to as the sidekick either. Winston wants nothing more than for someone to notice him as an individual person rather than someone’s assistance, lackey, etc.

This year, he’s finally ready to step out into the spotlight and get a little notice. Winston will participate in almost everything to get noticed. Even if that means doing something he probably rather would not do in the first place. But, that also means ending up on The Plastics’ radar…maybe he didn’t really think this through.

↳ LET THE BURN BOOK KNOW ALL OF YOUR SECRETS

1) Winston paid to lose his virginity to some random he met at Above the Dot. During the last two weeks of his Grade 9 year, he was in the hospital for Mono because of it.

2) Winston has been selling some secrets about his best friend’s family to the Coynes for money. With his grandmother’s costs becoming more expensive due to her aging, Winston thought this was best for his family.

↳ RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN PERSONALLY VICTIMIZED BY WINSTON CHU

Arlene Takahashi: Winston has been assigned to show Arlene the ropes of Degrassi, well whenever Dave is too busy to. Winston doesn’t mind this because it allows him to brush up on his skills to show Arlene that he is the coolest out of their group, especially compared to Dave. Arlene also doesn’t mind Winston because he is very kind and just wants to make her experience easy as possible.

Mike Dallas: For this year’s jock initiation, some jocks were given a loser to work with. Dallas and Owen created a betting pool along with several other jocks to see which jock had the patience, skill, and charisma to turn one of the losers they were each given into popularity before destroying their entire world. This year Dallas was assigned Winston Chu. Dallas is going to try whatever it takes to turn Winston from a joke into someone everyone wants to be around. On the contrary, Winston is quite skeptical of Dallas.

Miles Hollingsworth: Winston and Miles are childhood friends. There are often times in which Miles is embarrassed to be seen with Winston because of how often his friend tries anything to stand out. At the end of the day though, if someone is really going to hurt Winston, Miles will be the first person to defend his friend.

Tiny Bell:  Winston and Tiny are biology partners. Both of them have yet to communicate with one another but with the start of the school year, they might have to in order to pass biology.

“Chewy,” Miles said, putting his hand on Winston’s shoulder. “If you do that at the party, I’ll have to pretend like I don’t know you,” he joked. 

“Those were some solid moves and you know it.”

mhcllingswcrth:

Here’s to hoping the party will give me an idea of who’s worth giving the time of day, and others who I should probably avoid. Even if I do already have a few opinions on that from who I already know pretty well. 

“Come on, man. Can’t it just be a party? You know,  drinks, music, dancing?” He performed an awkward little shimmy dance as he spoke the last word.
