Our secret

Our secret -chapter 1

Carter's POV

I hate going to fucking school. That's my first thought when I wake up. I get out of bed, throw on a black t-shirt and some jeans. I put my black vans on, grab my keys, and just like that I'm out the door and driving to school.

                                        ~
I get to school a little earlier than expected but whatever. As, I'm walking down the halls to my locker someone bumps into me.
"Watch where you're going," I say.
"Oh I'm sorry," She apologizes. I look her up and down wow she's very attractive. She has brown hair that falls to her mid back and green eyes.
"It's all good. I'm Carter, Carter James."
"I'm Amara, Amara Carson."
"I guess I'll see you around then Amara," She blushes.
"See you around Carter." She says while walking away. I admire her as she walks away. Wow she really is attractive.  I smirk at my own thoughts.

Amara's POV

I just bumped into Carter, Carter James. I could tell he had no idea who I was or maybe he's just a good liar. Anyways, I knew who he was. How could someone not know who Carter James is, he's literally like the school's "bad boy" I'm pretty sure everyone knows who he is.
          
                                       ~

Once the bell rings for my last period I'm on my way to cheerleading practice. We have a game tomorrow against some private school.
"Hey Amara!" Someone yells from behind me I can tell who it is by her voice, Breena.
"Hey B!" I wrap my arms around her and we hug. 
"You ready for practice?"
"Yeah, cmon!" We walk to practice together. I guess we end up being late because by the time we get to the field the girls are already stretching.
"Amara and Breena come on let's go. Hurry go change quickly," Our team captain tells us. We nod in response. Cheerleading started of as a joke, me and B would joke about it when we were freshmen but we tried-out our sophomore year and made the team. So, here we are seniors and we love it so much. We go through a bunch of runs for tomorrow's game because cheer season just started back up. Our captain, Gemma hates this private school like a lot. Gemma's boyfriend is the quarterback on our football team. So she's been hoping for the football team to have a winning streak. After practice, Breena gives me a ride home.  When I get home my dad's asleep on the couch and my mom is in the kitchen cooking something. She turns ahead when she hears the door close and smiles.
"Hey hon."
"Hey mom, What are you making?"
"Pasta. It's almost ready come set the table." I set the table while my mom finishes cooking the pasta. We eat our food and I go shower and get ready for bed. I wake up, get ready, pack my cheer bag, do everything I got to do before breena picks me up. My phone buzzes.

B: I'm outside hurry your ass up!!
Me: Be there in a sec!

"You nervous for tonight's game?" Breena asks. She starts driving to school.
"Just a little but pretty confident we'll win."
Breena mutters, "Hopefully."
"Fingers crossed," I cross my fingers and giggle.
The bell rings by the time we make it to school.
I start heading toward my first period class which is English.
"Hey." I turn my head at the 'hey' I just heard. Its Carter.
"Hi." My eyes meet his. I can see why so many girls find him attractive.
"I heard you're on the cheer team, Amara."
"Yeah I am. Look I gotta go, I don't wanna be late see you around." When I walk through the door everyone's eyes are on me. I quickly take a seat right next to Iva.
                                       ~

I'm at break with Breena,Charlotte, and lily. We're sitting  at some table just talking well technically I'm not talking Im just listening. My  eyes meet his and he smiles.
"Amara are you listening?" Lily asks me. Shit I hope they didn't catch me looking at Carter.  They're looking at me.
"So have you heard anything about Molly and Callen?" Fuck why are they asking me questions about Molly and Callen.
"Yeah uh no," I answer honestly. School ends and I walk home. When I get to my house my parents are gone, probably still at work. I go to my room, put my cheer suit on, I tie my hair up into a high ponytail, put a red and white bow in, I put a bit of makeup on, and I finally slip my sneakers on. Breena texts me.

B: I'm outside hurry
Me: Ok

I throw my bag over my shoulder and head out the door. Breena looks good she has her curly hair into a slick back ponytail with the same colored bow as me. She starts driving to our school I stare out the window. We get to school and go to the field. The girls are getting set for the game.
"You nervous?" Breena asks, I shake my head.
"Look babe I got you don't worry," She tells me. I know Breena has me because she's backspot and I'm flyer. This is my first time being flyer so not gonna lie I am a bit nervous but we've practiced the routine so I'm not that nervous. We have two flyers, I'm one and Gemma our captain is the other. The football team starts going out on the field and thats when the game begins. Next thing I Know The girls are about to throw me up when I see him on the bleachers, Carter. He's watching me.

Carter's POV

Damn ok she looks good in her cheer suit, red for sure is her color. She's looking at me and I'm looking at her. The people holding her throw her in the air and she does a tumble and they catch her. The cheerleading team starts cheering for the boys. I'm not here because of this boring ass football game, football's never been my thing. I'm only here because after I ran into Amara I asked around school about her and heard she was on the cheerleading team. Once the game is over,  I start walking to my car. I start driving home. When, I get home I go to my room, grab my guitar, and I start playing.
