We were warming up on the field and it already dark outside, the stadium lights were turning on and the seats were filling up.

We started our dance and the crowd were loving it.

Pom-poms are flying everywhere and the crowd is cheering for us. It was time for our finale, we were doing a half and I was standing on top. The footballers came out onto the pitch when a boy with light brown hair caught my eye, he was watching me up in the air and our eyes locked. What the fuck is happening to me ? I gulped, feeling intimidated when my legs start getting shakey and I lost my balance. Next thing I'm on the ground and everyone's watching .

I'm so embarresed this never happens to me. The finale was over so I run to the girls toilets.

I look in the mirror and splash some water in my face. All these thoughts start running through my mind. Will they kick me off the cheerleading squad? Would my mom be ashamed of me? Who was that guy who distracted me ?

I decided to shake it off because I know none of these questions are good for my health.

I can hear someone coming into the toilets so I quickly go back to my normal self and act like nothing has happened and that I'm not totally stressing out.

"Hey, are you okay?" A warm voice asks. The boy that I saw before came up to me.

"Um, you do know these are the girl toilets right?" I ask honestly not knowing if he knew or not.

"Y-yeah" he laughed awkwardly. "I just saw you fall before you looked upset when you left. Are you sure your okay Alicia?" He seemed like he cared so much and I didn't even know him.

" I'm fine it's whatever- wait how do you know my name ?"

"Uh I sit on your table at lunch like every day." He laughed. Shit i told you I never pay attention to the guys at lunch.

"Oh yeh sorry." I gave him a crooked smile.

We talked for a little longer and he was making me feel better about falling in front of everyone, he said it happens to everyone at some point which I'm sure isn't true but it made me feel better.

He was about to leave when I realised I didn't even know his name. "What's your name?"

He looked up at me "I'm Corey." He then gave me a one sided smile and left.
