"A gal pal with no boy drama. That's pretty refreshing, Jane."
— Holly J. to Jane in Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'

The friendship between Holly J. Sinclair and Jane Vaughn formed in the ninth season of Degrassi: The Next Generation.

Friendship History[]

Overview[]

The two originally had a distant relationship at first, as they were only acquaintances through Jane's then-boyfriend, Spinner Mason, who was Holly J.'s co-worker at the time. In fact, during their few interactions around this time, they seemed to dislike each other to an extent. However, the departure of Jane's best friend Darcy Edwards in season 8 left her without any female friends, which bothered her greatly. In her senior year, she and Holly J. took a business class together. They were eager to work together, not due to any sincere liking for each other, but because they were the only two girls in the class. However, as they continued to work together, and eventually started their own babysitting service, they found that they enjoyed each other's company. Jane was happy to have a new female friend, and Holly J. appreciated Jane's natural assertiveness and drive.

In Wanna Be Startin' Somethin', when Blue makes a comment about how Holly J. doesn't like to be partners with anyone, Jane attempts to high-five Holly J. when she returns Blue's jab with a snarky comment. Holly J. looks at her, confused, and Jane asks if she has spinach in her teeth. Holly J. takes the opportunity to ask Jane to pair up for a project since they were the only girls in the entrepreneurial class and Jane eventually says yes. They decided to start a babysitting business after they notice that a lot of mothers need babysitters and that they could make good money in the process. They end up being really good friends. When Holly J. was texting and talking to Jane while driving, she accidentally hits the back of Declan Coyne's car. Declan deals with the situation in a sly way and says it's just a government car and when Holly J. asked to exchange insurance, he claims that she was asking for his number. That causes Holly J. to develop a crush on him. One day when Jane said she would cover for a babysitter, Holly J. decides to surprise her, but she ends up seeing Declan and Jane kissing at the door. She later confronts Jane, telling her that she can only lie to Spinner so long since they work together. Jane wonders why she only has crushes on guys she likes, revealing that Spinner told her about Holly J.'s crush. Holly J. advises Jane to dump Declan and choose Spinner. Jane takes her advice and ends her secret relationship with Declan. Jane and Holly J. decide to keep their babysitting business and continue their friendship.

In Waiting for a Girl Like You, Holly J. sits with Jane at lunch. When Holly J. finds out that her #1 match is Declan, she is annoyed, and Jane tells her that if she needs a friend to pick up the pieces of her, then she will be there. Holly J. looks over at Declan to see he has many hearts from different girls pinned on his chest, and Jane tells Holly J. that he can't help being popular with the girls.

In Somebody, Declan convinces Holly J. to skip school with him, and Holly J. asks Jane to handle all of her tasks for her, so that she could go to her "meeting." Later, after Declan didn't stand up to his mother for her, Holly J. vents to Jane at lunch about how their reputations are ruined, their mothers are pissed, and their relationship is dead. Jane optimistically tells her that at least Holly J. got the mentorship, and she tells her that it will all blow over, as Holly J. has dealt with worse. Jane tells Holly J. that she had never seen Holly J. wish a problem that she couldn't solve, which gave Holly J. an idea to sneak around with Declan since they couldn't openly see each other.
