Today is our second day of practice.

Ethan, Diego, and Rosy stay to watch us practice.

"Okay guys get ready, we'll start in five minutes" Emma yells out to us.

We go to the field and get into position.

Emma shows us the routine we'll be doing.

And then she has us try it, a girl in the back couldn't get it but Emma showed her one on one while the other's practice.

It continued on and on like that for an hour.

Ethan, Diego and Rosy cheered us on as they watched our routine.

"Woohoo go BABE" Diego would shout at Emma as she did her performance.

She would blush and Rosy would look like she wanted to cry as she watched Diego watching Emma.

My heart breaks for her, understanding how she feels watching the love of her life be with someone else.

A thought pops into my head, I haven't thought of Mason all day until now.

One step closer I guess.

Ethan looks at me as I do a spilt, he looks at me with an impressed expression, smiling at me.

He looks proud.

By the time practice was over, I'm a sweaty mess.

I get my back pack and head to the bleachers with Emma by my side.

"Today was a good practice!" She says smiling.

I smile too, "yes it was, it's been awhile since I've done cheerleading. I almost forgot how much I used to love it"

My voice sounding sad towards the end, Emma smiles at me "I'm glad you decided to join us" she says.

"Me too, thank you" i say, we walk the rest of the way quietly.

When we reach our friends, she immediately goes to Diego's side.

"You looked good doing what you love" Ethan says, "I can look at you all day" he whispers to me.

I look down with a smile on my face, hiding my face from him.

"Don't do that" he says surprising me.

I look up confused "don't do what?" I ask.

"Don't look down when you blush" he says, "like I've said your pretty when you blush"

He smiles, we look into each others eyes, more like he does and i just look into one of his eyes.

The other still swollen shut.

We hear a cough behind us.

We turn to look at our friends.

"Are we interrupting something?" Emma responds, the three of them giving each other a knowing look.

"No"

"Yes"

We both say at the same time, Ethan saying yes and me saying no.

Making me blush, we all start walking to the parking lot.

Ethan and i walking a little bit behind them.

"I love when you blush, especially when I'm the one doing it" Ethan whispers so no one hears.

"Shut up" i say laughing pushing him away playfully.

He laughs joining me.

He walks me to my car like always, we say goodbye to the others.
