"OPEN GYM FOR GYMNASTICS!! Every Mondays & Wednesdays from 5-9! At The Twist."

I read on one of the walls at Wal-Mart. 

Pushing open the doors, I feel the hot summer air hit me. Smiling to myself, I head to my car. I open the car door and step in, turning it right on. The cool breeze from the air-conditioning hits my face. Backing out of my parking spot, I drive to my house.

Pulling into my driveway, I notice that Dad's putting more boxes in the house. I sigh, "How many more boxes do we have?" I grumble to myself. Ever since Dad got this promotion, we've been moving into our new house. Of course he decides to move right when schools out across the country.

Heading inside, I can tell that Dad has been putting things away. Now all we have to do is hang up accessories around the house.

"CLUNCK!"

"Crap!" Dad yells.

I walk into the kitchen to find out what had happened. "Dad? What happened?"

"Oh, just a pan feel. Thank goodness your here. Could you get the rest of your boxes and put them in your room? I think you only have two left and they're not that heavy."

I walk up the stairs and down the hall with the two boxes my dad constructed me to do. Setting them on my bed, I room the tape and open the box. Oh, just pictures and some desk stuff. I put everything in their place.

I check the time and notice that it was only 4. I have an hour to kill before open gym. Unlocking my iPad, an e-mail pops up. Cristy! My best friend from when I lived in Georgia.

"AUSTINN! I miss you so much! How is it over there? Have you meet any new friends? What about the cheer squad? It's really boring over here now that I don't have anyone to be my "partner in crime". Lol. Cheer practice without you is so not fun! I miss you showing off to the newbies to show them that they're not better than us. Now, they think that you're not here that they're better than us! So yesterday I took Matt and Brice as bases then Kurt as the back spot and showed them. They wont even talk now! Okay, enough with me. E-mail me back soon! Love you!

xoxo Cristy Biotch "

Laughing at the message, I decided to e-mail here back tomorrow so I can tell her anything that changes. Looking at the time, I decide to get up. I throw on some spanks, some short SHORT yellow shorts, a cheer shirt from last year, and throw my shoes on. I grab my bag and phone then head out the door calling to Dad that I'd be back later. Not waiting for a response, I jump in my car and head to the gym.

After find The Twist, I jump out of my car and walk to the entrance. I'm a bit late so people are already active and alive. A smile on my face, I walk up to the window.

"Hi, I'm new here and I didn't know if I had to pay for Open Gym or not." The lady gave me a smile and started talking.

"No, but the rules are 1. Don't pull anything you've never tried before without a spot. and 2. If you've pulled something with a spot but never without one, get a spot. That's all."

I thanked the lady with a smile and walked to a chair. I set my bag down and put my phone on top. I sit on the mat and start my stretching. After I pull a couple of bow and arrows, Scorpions, and the spilts, I'm ready to go! I walk to the spring floor and see a girl about my height pull a simple Standing back handspring. I'm up next so I start with a standing, then do my round off back handspring then go into a tuck. Feeling good about myself, I pull my layout. Lading that, I try my full and land that was ease. I notice that everyone is watching me and I feel a bit self conscience. I slid off the mat and walked back to my seat. I checked my phone and had no messages or miss calls. 

"Hi! My name's Ashley. I saw your tumbling and your REALLY good! I haven't seen you around before. Are you new?" she questioned.

I smiled and nodded, "Yeah, I just moved here a couple of days ago. My name's Austin and thanks!"

"Wow, a girl named Austin. I like it! Hah. But, what grade are you in?"

"I'll be a Sophomore when school starts." I laugh.

"Oh, well. I'm the Captain of the cheer team and I wondered if you'd like to try out. You seem really good!" 

Whoa, this girl moves fast! "Yeah, that'd be great! Just tell me what to do and I'll do it!"

She nodded eagerly and motioned for me to follow her. I stood up and followed her to a group of people.

"Hey guys! This is Austin. She's the girl I was talking about! She's going to try out for cheer considering we don't have enough people yet. So, I need Tom and Tyler to base, and I need Cole to back spot." Joy, I get to be the flyer! "We're going to start with a simple prep."

I got in my spot and loaded my foot, my elbows up and head up.

"Prep, 1, 2." Dip, dip, release and stick it! "Cradle, 1, 2." I waited for the dip and throw before snapping and landing in their arms perfectly safe.

"Extension." Ashley called. I got back into my spot and asked Cold to give me a bit more power by pushing my butt up a bit. He nodded with a smirk. Perv. "Prep, 1, 2." Cold called and I did the same thing as a prep but this time tighter. "Cradle, 1, 2." I waited for the dip before snapping again and landed with a perfect snap.

"Um, Extension into a barrel roll!" Okay, this was easy. I waited for my queue before dipping and going into extension. "Barrel roll, 1, 2." Right when the released my feet I twice to prove to them that I could do it and snapped into a "v" before landing in my bases arms once again.

"Hmm, okay. Liberty, then into a Scorpion then into a scale. Then let you leg go but keep it up in the air straight behind you but your arms are in a "t". Then barrel roll into cradle. Sound good?" she asked.

"Of course! Easy peasey!" I nodded. I did this all the time at my old school. Stepping up, I did the full routine perfectly and ending in my bases arms.

"Wow, only two other girls can do that perfectly and they're Seniors. Your on the team! Um, give me your phone number and I'll text you the dates when we practice and where. Oh, and the bill for everything you need for cheer."

"Alright, sounds good!" I rattled off my phone number to here and walked out of the gym feeling good about myself.
