You changed my life.-Jake Gyllenhaal

-CHAPTER 8-

— Oh really? — he asked shyly 

— I thought you were not there? — we both laughed

—Only for you I am— he asked amused  — so you forgive me?

—Yeah... I guess so — I answered —but what you and I agreed on is still on — I changed my voice tone to  a more serious one —I'm not getting in your business anymore

—Lou...— he argued

—Chris it's fine, just leave it like that, ok? —  I didn't want to end up in a fight with him again 

—Ok— he answered not very convinced, actually not convinced at all, but what he told me, I was never going to forget

—You're girlfriend's cute huh?— I said sincerely, trying to slightly change the topic 

—she's not my girlfriend— he laughed —it's the first time we go on a date, she's new at school  

—Yeah, I heard 

— Sean?— he asked sure

— and Ryan— I laughed

—Hey... I wanted to ask you something 

—What's that?— I answered amused 

—Today at the game, before it began— I couldn't help it and started to crack up... I knew exactly what he was going to ask me —...Oh Lou you laughing tells me all I need to know — he laughed along 

—Sorry, it was so hard not to shut up really 

—You're crazy woman — he affirmed — Are you conscious he definitely knows who was it?

—Yes, but I don't really care —it was true, it actually made it much fun knowing he knew it was me — Chris!—I yelled remembering what had happened with Jake   — you know who talked to me?— I asked him —Well.. he basically just asked me if I was ok...— I added

— Whom?

—Jake Gyllenhaal— I said with emotion in my voice 

— Really?— he asked laughing 

—Yeah... he told me: Are you ok? and I said: Yeah and he told me: it doesn't seem like it  — I started to talk quickly 

— When was that?

—It was after you and I... 

—Lou, I truly am sorry — he insisted

—Christian—I laughed —...it's fine— I answered —under one condition 

— what?— he asked somewhat insecure

—You have to go and support me to... the cheerleading auditions— I answered with an evil smile

 — cheerleading auditions?—he said quite shocked  —It's a joke, right? 

—No sir— I answered with a cheeky smile 

— Who gave you that stupid idea— he knew me so well—you would never think about something like that— he was right, I would never think about being a cheerleader. not that I don't like it, but the captain ughhh. 

—Sean said something... — I laughed — so?

— you think I would ever miss that? — he said sure  —you know what, I think he is trying to prepare you, cause he knows you're going to lose the bet, and he's  trying to get you closer to Casy 

—Yeah, sure Christian— I laughed —I told you, you better start making all my final projects because is a matter of time me getting Gyllenhaal in the palm of my hands  — I hung up

I put on  some shorts and a tight blouse. I wore something sporty this time since the auditions were today.

— Are you sure about this?— Chris asked 

— A 110%— I said sure 

— Why do you want to get in by the way?

—You'll see — I smiled wickedly 

We came in the schools football field, the soccer players were on the right side and football players were on the left, the track around the field was obviously for runners. and there were plenty of people staring at some players in the stands.

I could tell where the cheerleaders were, because there were also a lot of people around seeing the auditions.

— What are they all doing there?— Sean, Ryan and Jason asked sitting on the stands 

—I don't know — I really didn't know but I figured 

—I'll be up there — Ryan said 

I walked to where everyone was, every girl following the same steps, I sat in first row, so that I was facing all of them, as soon as Casy noticed I was there she frowned her forehead. they were all looking at each other, there was no secret mine and Casy's relationship was awful. I was surprised to see the new girl, following  Casy's steps, what was her name, oh yeah, Tiffany.

They finished their routine, and Casys stare was still on me, If looks could kill we would both be on a grave yard already, sadly they don't even hurt a fly.

— What do you want ?— she asked with an unfriendly face, it wasn't the moment for me to get all bitchy 

—I want to get in the cheerleading team — I answered just like that, I made a sarcastic face, I didn't know what was funnier, her stupid face or how every girl stared at each other.

—Hey georgous— she said hypocritically  —I don't think you'll make it— she smiled, why the hell did Zack change me for... this?!? 

—I won't lose anything if I try, will I? —I stood up leaving my bag on the bench  

—True, it's your choice if you want to humiliate yourself in front of everybody — she turned her head to her "carrots", and I say carrots because the cheerleaders uniform was orange 

—sure... I mean you should know that from your experience, right?— everyone started to laugh, but they stopped as Casy stared at them. 

—follow me — she was mad now —...if you can't do it don't feel bad, some people are just worthless
