Winston-Frankie Relationship

The relationship between Frankie Hollingsworth and Winston Chu, which is known as Frankston (Frankie/Winston) or Winkie (Winston/Frankie), formed in the 13th Season of Degrassi.

Overview
Having known Frankie since she was five, Winston never thought of her as anything other than his "best friend's annoying, little sister". However, when Frankie joined his club, Comic Book Society, Winston realized that they share a common interest -- comic books -- and that there is a lot he doesn't know about Frankie. It was revealed that they were mutually attracted to one another when they shared a kiss in the Hollingsworth pool, though they swore that Miles Hollingsworth III, Frankie's older brother and Winston's best friend, could never find out.

Season 13
In You Are Not Alone, Miles teases Winston about using his club, the Comic Book Society, to try and meet girls. When Winston notices an attractive girl signing up, he tells Miles that she has taste, and is surprised to find out that the girl was Frankie. Later, Frankie shows up to The Comic Book Society's meeting, and Winston disbelieves that Frankie is really a fan since he has never seen her read a comic book. In class, Winston notices his name was played during a game of MASH, which Frankie and Keisha had been playing.

After school, Winston goes over to the Hollingsworth home to confront Frankie about the MASH game. When Miles leaves, Frankie appears in front of Winston, and takes off her robe, revealing that she is wearing a pink bikini. Winston is attracted at the sight of her and is so stunned that he doesn't say anything. Frankie smiles at him, but Winston backs up and accidentally falls into the pool. Since he cannot swim well, Frankie dives in and pulls him to safety. Winston accuses her of getting into the bikini to distract him, but Frankie says that she doesn't need an elaborate plan to make him look dumb. He says that she has been doing it all week in the club meetings and in her MASH game, where he was the loser. However, Frankie asks him, "Who said you were the loser?", revealing that she likes him. Winston realizes that she left it on the board on purpose so that he would see it. The two kiss in the pool, before pulling away, saying that Miles could never know about this. They then kiss again.
