I See You

Chapter 8🖤

                               Demitri's POV

I'm on my way to cheer practice right now.

Coach wants us to practice on the field so that we'll be used to it when football season starts.

As soon as I step out of the car Monty says "shit...it's fucking hotter than demon dick out here".

"You're right. I should probably put some sunscreen on" I said as we walked to the field.

We got there and me and Monty immediately went our separate ways. He went to his team and I went to mines.

As he's walking, I immediately look for Apollo. Of course he wasn't hard to spot. He's literally the brightest person on the team.

As we made eye contact, he hit his chest 2 times and pointed at me.

As i began to smile and blush, here came my coach bringing me back to reality.

"Hey Demitri. Ready to put some work in today?" She asked excitedly.

"Yea, what are we working on today?" I asked.

"Well today we're gonna be working on jumps, tumbling, and stunts. But mostly stunts. I want us to do more than just boring old pyramids" she said with an eye roll.

"Hey, since you're not really a big person, would you wanna be a flyer?" She asked.

"Um...I don't know coach." I said with an unsure tone.

"Look...I know flying can be scary but trust me. You'll be okay and my team will not let you hit that ground. I promise" she said as she placed her hand over her heart.

"Ok um...I guess I can give it a shot" I said as I hunched my shoulders.

"Ok great. Go stretch and warm up. I'm gonna go talk to Monty". She said as a smirk formed on her face.

I walked over to the team and greeted them all. They all greeted back to me with the same respectful energy as I did them.

As I began to stretch and warm up my body, Sierra came over to me.

"Hey boo" she said with the biggest smile on her face as she sat next to me.

"Hey wassup" I said.

"How you been? I see you're finally coming out of your little shell" she said.

"Yea I'm getting real used to being here. Plus it really doesn't make since to be quiet and be a cheerleader. I mean..we are suppose to be louder than the crowd" I as we both giggled.

As we're stretching, coach calls us over to start practice.

"Okay guys. So we're gonna start with our tumbling" she said. "Ok so boom. Line up at the field goal and tumble as far as you can. Please don't over due it okay?"

We all did as she said and go in line and we began to tumble. I just did a few back handsprings and ended with a back tuck. Really my favorite skill honestly.

"Okay now jumps" she said.

I really just didn't have enough energy to THAT many jumps so I just did 2 toe touches.

"I'm getting too old for this shit" Sierra said as the whole team bursted out laughing.

"Ouu who is that fine ass tree over there?" She said as she pointed at the team.

"Which one?" I said as an eyebrow raised. She better not be talking about my man.

"The one standing next to Apollo" she said.
