Hawk's Eye

Chapter 23

"Tony? Wow, it's been forever since I've seen you here. How have you been?" a voice said from behind him. He turned to see his ex-girlfriend Savannah. She was just as he remembered her; perky and petite with high cheekbones, pale skin, light brown eyes, and honey blonde hair. He smiled politely.

"Good, how have you been holding up?" he asked. She shrugged and smiled.

"I've been better. Are you enrolling again?" she asked. He shook his head and frowned.

"You know I stopped after my accident on high-bar. I don't do gymnastics anymore. I'm going to college now," he explained. She nodded in understanding. Tony used to do gymnastics when he was sixteen. George's Gym was the best ranking in the nation, so his parents sent him here to advance his skills. At a meet when he was on high-bar, it collapsed while he was on it. He broke his collarbone and arm as well as bruising a few ribs. He moved back to Texas after that and only came back for college.

"So why are you here; as in inside the gym here?" Savannah asked curiously, snapping Tony out of his thoughts. Tony looked over to the next wing and smiled lightly.

"I found a reason to come back," he shrugged. Savannah hugged him tightly. He hesitated before he hugged her back.

"We've missed you Tony," she breathed. He had a feeling that she was talking more about herself than the gym as a whole. After a second she pulled away. "Are you coming to watch the practice?" she asked. He shook his head.

"I was actually going to go see my girlfriend over in the dance wing," he said emphasizing the word 'girlfriend'. Savannah frowned slightly before she plastered on a fake smile and nodded.

"Oh, well... I have to get ready to coach, but it was nice catching up with you again. I guess I'll see you later Tony," she said before she turned and walked away. Tony chuckled and shook his head as he started making his way to the dance wing. He watched from the observatory window quietly as Kyndall practiced. He didn't realize how good she was at dancing. He watched in awe as she leapt, turned, and danced gracefully. Her lesson was soon over. He met her outside and smiled. She smiled at him in surprise and pecked him gently.

"Hey, I thought you left," she smiled. He laughed and shook his head.

"And make you find your own way home? Not a chance," he smiled. They walked over to the cheerleading wing. Kyndall kissed him quickly before she went over to where her squad was just starting to group together. They stretched and went over the routine before they moved on to stunts. Tony was amazed at how high she could be thrown. He was even most amazed at how many times she could turn in the air before they caught her. They finished the routine and Kyndall walked over to Tony and smiled.

"Ready to go?" she asked. He nodded as he took in Kyndall's blue sports bra and black spanks. They walked back through the dance wing and then the gymnastics wing.

"Hey Tony!" someone yelled from the floor. Tony looked over to see one of his best friends when he was here. Tony smiled and walked over to him.

"Hey Josh long time, no see," Tony said hugging him quickly.

"What's been going on with you lately?" Coach Josh asked. Tony shrugged.

"College," he said simply. Kyndall walked over confused. Coach Josh remembered her from her try-outs and smiled at her.

"Oh, hey Kyndall," Josh smiled. Kyndall said hi back, still a little confused.

"I'm so lost right now," Kyndall said unsurely. Tony remembered that she didn't know anything. He looked at Josh then back to Kyndall. He didn't want to go through this long story right now. Josh slung an arm around Tony and pointed at him.
