(September 8th 1986)

Prep rallies, my favorite time of the day. I get to see my jerk of a brother become more popular by the second. The only thing that makes me mad is the fact that he is in love with my best friend, Chrissy.

Anyway...I'm currently stretching on the floor before everyone comes in for the prep rally. Apparently EVERYONE is coming today, so I can't mess up in any moves.

Chrissy comes over and pulls me out of my split. "Hey girly." She jumps down into her slip while I go into my other split. "Are you ready for today?" She asks and raises her eye brows up and down rapidly. I fall out of my split and sit normally.

"Yes, I just hope my skirt doesn't fly up while I'm tumbling or in the the air." I respond and rub my arm.

"Well it is because that's what your skirt does when you kick high or jump up. It's like like your wearing lace underwear." She jokes. I stay silent. She goes wide eyed. "Oh my god yn!" She jumps out of her split.

I laugh rapidly. "I'm just joking." I say and he slaps my neck. Not hard though. The doors fly open. Everyone on the cheer team gets up and stands next to the basketball team. I look over at Steve who is also in the basketball team. I smile and wave. He does the same.

In my opinion Steve was pretty hot. His hair, and his humor. I just couldn't stand it. I see a group of freaks walk by. I step forward a bit and trip one of them. I laugh and so does everyone else by me. "Haha sorry. Didn't see you there." I laugh and look back. A tall man with long back hair is staring into my soul. He looks down and grins a little.

"Preppy's are crazy." He says to his friend with a hat. Everyone on the basketball team heard that and stepped behind me.

"What did you say freak!" Jason shouts at Eddie. and puts his hands on my shoulders.

"Nothing Jason...just control your sister." Eddie plays it cool and walks away with a smirk. A little smirk forms on my face but goes away once Steve taps my shoulder. I turn around and blush at the sight of him.

"Hi Steve." I'm blushing like crazy, not knowing what to do. His smile forming also making me smile.

"You okay?" He ask's concerned. I laugh a little and put my hand on his arm.

"Yeah I'm ok." He puts his hand on my cheek and keeps it there for a second. I stare at him shocked. He's never done this before. He blinks a few times and laughs.

"Um-sorry..I...uh I should get ready." He laughs a little then leaves. The cheer team is looking at with their jaws to the floor.

"Was that-" Chrissy starts. I squeal and jump up and down.

"Steve Harrington!!" I shout a little and we both jump up and down. We immediately stop after a few seconds and play it off. Then the band starts playing.

We run onto the court and start our dance. I immediately start to tumble to the front. Landing forward putting my hands in the hand and moving my hips side to side. Chrissy and I spin across each other and switch places. I look up and see Eddie looking at me specifically. Then I look down and see Steve looking at me with a smile. I run to the end of the gym and breathe.

I run and do a handspring into a double back flip. My skirt completely coming up and showing my black spandex underneath. I land and pull it down.

God I hate this skirt. I run back and jump up onto people's hands. They toss me in the air making me spin a few times then catching my one leg while holding the other. Chrissy is on the other side of me doing the same thing. I nod at her and we both hold hands about 4 feet away from each other. I let go and drop down. The song finally finishes and I put my hand to my chest breathing heavily. I have major asthma.

I'm right now having trouble breathing. I go in the floor and Chrissy comes behind me and holds my for comfort trying to get my breathing back in control. Everyone is looking at me. Steve rushes over with my inhaler. I take it from him and breath in. I do it a few times before finally calming down. Steve holds my hand and helps me up. We continue holding hands until he goes into the middle of the court.

I look back up and see Eddie watching me. I flip him off and he smirks. I sit down on the bench and watch the team. Jason grabs the microphone and speaks.

"I just wanted to say that Chrissy...I love you. I wouldn't be standing here right now if it wasn't for you." Chrissy blows him a kiss and blushes. "My little friend Steve here." He walks over to says and wraps his arm around him. "Has a little thing to announce." Jason smirks at him.

"What are you talking abouttt." Steve says awkwardly. Jason laughs and hands him the microphone. Then the guys in the team pushes him to the center. He clears his throat and looks at me. "Um..well there's this girl."

He adds. Everyone saying "aw" or "oOo" just bothers me to be honest. "She has pretty hair, beautiful eyes, and a smile that will make your heart flip in circles." He smiles at me and walks over to me. Chrissy shakes me and squeals.

  He holds his hand out in front of me. I hesitate for a second but take it. He walks us to the center. Is this actually happening! "Yn Carver." I look back at Jason who is smiling at me. "Will you be my beautiful girlfriend." He asks while pulling out a necklace.

I stare at him in shock. I look at the necklace with a little diamond "S" on it. I smile and nod. He drops the microphone immediately and hugs me tightly. I hug him back with joy in my heart.

He pulls away and takes the necklace out from the back. I turn over and he wraps it around my neck. I look up at the bleachers and see Eddie pissed. I honestly didn't care about his feelings. I turn around and wrap my arms around Steve's neck and hug him. He lifted me up and spun me around. We laughed and stared into each others eyes.

Jason picked up the microphone and put his hand on Steves shoulder. "Alright buddy that's enough flirting with my sister. I might actually throw up." He says and I push him a bit. He pushes me back.

"Oh shut it Jason, it's not like you make out with my best friend." I flip him off and laugh. I walk away back to the bench and sit down. Chrissy shakes me again and looks at the necklace.

"I'm so happy for you!" She screams and hugs me. I hug her back and continue watching the guys. Steve smiles at me then looks up. His face goes blank and flips someone off. I look up and see Eddie messing with him. I roll my eyes and look over at the door. Billy Hargrove. We make eye contact. I smile at him and get up. I run to him and hug him.

Billy is my best friend and will do anything to keep me safe. He is gentle around me, but not to others. I break the hug and smile at him. "Where have you been!" He asks and I point to the court.

"I've been cheering Billy and you know that." I laugh. His smile faints when he sees my necklace. He touches it and looks at it more.

"Where did you get this from?" He asks and lays back.

"Steve gave it to me. I'm his girlfriend now..." I respond awkwardly. He faintly smiles and hugs me.

"If your happy, I'm happy." He says and I her a whistle. I turn around and see Jason signing me to go over to him. I turn back around and hug Billy one more time before saying bye.

I walk over to Jason and he sits me down in the guys bench. "Jason why am I over here?" I ask.

"You know how much I hate Hargrove." He sounds pissed. I roll my eyes and get up. Jason grabs my wrist sitting me back down.

"Steve won't like it if you keep hugging him all day long." He says and lets me go. I rushingly get up and sit back next to Chrissy.
