Once we get inside the gym i hear the coach.

"Ok everyone there are 10 spots for the men's Jo team and 13 of you so let's see who stays and who goes." He says

We line up on the edge of the spring floor.

"Ok stretching let's go" he says

We all walk out onto the floor and spread out. We stretch for about 10 minutes then go back and line up at the edge.

"Ok warm ups." He says " running there and back!"

We run across and back then wait for instructions. Next we do round offs there and walking handstands back. We end up doing a few more warm ups before we begin tryouts.

We sit by the edge of the floor and wait for the coach to call our names. We are told to do our last competition routine. The British Dion guy goes first.

The coach turns on the music and he does his routine. His final is a roundoff backhand spring full twist. We all clap as he lands and the couch writes something down .

Some other people go and i wait my turn.

"Sebastián Arguello" the coach calls

I stand up and walk over to him. I tell him the song for the routine and walk onto the floor. The music starts and i start my routine.

As I'm getting ready for my final i do a controlled roll to the corner and start running. I do a roundoff backhand spring triple back and land perfectly.

I stick with my hands up and i hear

"ooohhhhh" from the guys sitting.

They run up to me and are so excited. They hype me up and congratulate me. Apparently I'm the first person to ever stick a triple back flip successfully at this gym.

They are all there hyping me up except Dion. He is standing against the wall with his arms crossed. We walk back to the edge all exited and sit down waiting for the last couple people.

Once everyone has gone the coach stands in front of us and tells us to come back tomorrow at 5pm and see who made it in.

We all walk back to the locker rooms talking about tryouts. Everyone is a lot more friendly and everyone is talking to me. I get everyone's phone number. We all want to hang out tomorrow then all go to the gym together to see who is in the team.

Everyone but Dion, he is acting kind of quiet. Once everyone finishes changing they all start leaving.

I get a few " bye Sebb see you tomorrow" as they leave.

Dion and i are the only ones left. I decided to go talk to him.

"Hey," i say "you good?"

"Yah I'm fine" he says

"Uhh do you want to come hang out with all of us tomorrow at noon?"

"Maybe, I'm kind of busy" he replies

"Are you shure your ok?"

"Yah I'm just tired." He says smiling at me

"Well would you maybe want to come over and hang out tonight? I want to get to know you"

"Yah shure." He says "I'll follow you there"

"K cool"

We walk out of the locker room and make our way to the front.

I stop by my car "so you'll just follow me?"

"Yah I'll see you there" he says with a smile

I get in my car and start driving. I check my mirror and Dion is right behind me. I drive to the apartment, every now and then checking to make Shure he is still behind me.

We get there and i get out of the car as he pulls up next to me. We walk up to my room and i unlock the door.

"Wow cool place" he says walking in

"Thanks, i just moved in earlier this week"

"Cool," he replies" can i use your bathroom to change?"

"Yah go ahead, it's right over there by the living room"

He walks into the bathroom and locks the door. I go into my room and grab some casual clothes. I walk into the attached bathroom and change out of my sweats and jacket.

I walk out into the living room and see Dion sitting on the couch with some short shorts on. He is wearing a tight fitting black shirt with rainbows on the sleeves.

"So..." I say sitting down " whatcha wanna do?"

"I dunno" he says looking over at me

"Do you want to watch a movie?"

"Shure I'm down" he replies

We end up watching a few episodes of
Heart Stopper. I've never watched the show before but Dion said it was good so we ended up watching it.

We get a few episodes in and i start to get tired. I don't want to tell Dion though he seems like he is having fun. About 30 more minutes pass and my eyes get heavy. I lean my head over on what i think is a pillow and fall asleep.
