!previously!

You looked around the room and your eyes locked with Rooster's.

He sent you one of his beautiful smiles and you unwillingly smiled back.

Only in my dreams would he like me.

!now!

Rooster made his way over to you and you held your breath, feeling the butterflies in your stomach.

"You did pretty good, darlin'." He spoke to you, both of you gazing into each other's eyes.

You blushed at the nickname but still kept your bragging demeanor, "Oh just pretty good? Who's the one that had to do 200 push-ups again?"

You laughed while he shook his head so you continued, "Mhm but thanks for the compliment I know I did good."

You reached your hand up and tucked a small piece of his hair behind his ear before walking away.

          ‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾ THREE DAYS LATER ‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾

Over the past few days you've been doing the same thing which was going against Maverick.

You had been doing certainly well until today.

You were having one of those 'in my head' days which led you to where you are now.

You were currently staring at the ground, watching a bead of sweat fall from your forehead.

"193" the commander said, and you shook while pushing yourself down and up again.

How did I lose?

"194" You grunted while going down again.

That should've been easy for me.

"195" You panted harshly and went down.

What is wrong with me?

"196" Down again.

I tried so hard and I still failed.

"197" You went down, your arms and legs shaking from exhaustion.

I'm a failure.

"I98" You shook those thoughts away and went down.

"199" You grunted in pain and gasped, pushing yourself down.

I have to try harder.
(almost vomited typing this sorry guys)

"200" You squeezed your eyes shut and moved down before shakily moving up again.

You shakily moved to sit on the floor, panting.

"Alright Jester you're done for the day." The commander said but you just brought my knees up and laid your face down.

After a few moments of silence you heard him sigh and walk away.

You sniffled slightly and blinked away the tears.

You breath wavered slightly and more and more tears fell.

For some odd reason, you were extremely emotional.
