The Cheerleaders' Life

Laura Black

Laura POV :

It was another school day when I woke up. I didn't want to get out of this messy fluffy bed, it was so fluffy and smooth. It felt like sleeping on clouds or a huge bowl of marshmallows.I mean if it was marshmellos I will probably eat my bed . haha. When I decided to get out of bed, I looked at my reflection in the mirror.Oh my goodness, I for sure looked like an old grumpy lady. I was horrible, my eyes looked like they were punched so hard. Probably because the other night I spent with Diana, my bestie. We were supposed to plan for the English project but we didn't , we spent the night watching Mean Girls and eating popcorn.

Today, I decided I had to get shower. I knew I had to pick up Diana for school but she was a lazy ass too, so I didn't care. I relaxed under this hot water a bit, and went out to get dressed. Today, the weather was warm so I wore an oversized creamy sweater and dark red leggings with my combat boots, and I let my second day curls fall down as I topped it with a beanie that said "bad hair day " flipped.

I thought I had to skip breakfast today so I took a small sandwich, drank some juice and headed to the garage to get my car and pick up Diana.

I jammed a little to the radio as I was on her front door I texted her and she was out. She looked pretty today, it wasn't like she looked bad everyday but she was badass!

She saw me checking her out which snapped me back to reality, " What?" She questioned.

"Gurl, you look badass!" I said. She chuckled. "Okay c'mon we'll be late," I said.

She got into the car as we were singing in unison to the song on the radio. We both had our first period Physics I mean, ughhh! I thought I would daydream another day, today. Mr. Big Nose (that's what we call him) always has to assign us projects. I mean I feel like he does it just to annoy us, which was pretty obvious. He paired me with a boy named Zack I think. Although I knew this project had to be done sooner or later, I didn't bother to look for that boy.

As the periods passed and passed it was cheerleading rehearsal period, which I liked because I got to practice with Diana as she was the leader. As I gathered my stuff for the rehearsal, I heard someone calling, I turned around to see a tall guy with dark brown neat hair and dark green grey eyes which I barely noticed from the large blue glasses. He was wearing jumpers. He was a nerd. He also had braces on. I assume he was Zack . This was the nerd which my Physics teacher made my project partner .

"Hi, I am Zack," he said.

"Oh hey," I forced a smile.

"Umm, do you want to discuss the project?" he asked.

"Ya, sure, we'll meet at the nearby cafe after school. Okay ?" I forced to be polite and not bitchy .

"Ya sure," he said scratching the back of his neck.

"Okay, I gotta go, see ya," I said running to the practice room.

The practice went really good. I checked my schedule and I had swimming t.he last period. I decided not to go because I was pretty tired. So I went to rest beside my car. Listening to some music from my phone and reading a book, and having beside me a hot chocolate from Starbuck's made me relax a little bit.

Until I saw Diana running and crying really badly. I mean Diana wouldn't cry for something silly. Something bad must have happened. I ran to her quickly, to see her mascara running down to her red blood cheeks. She looked bad. "What the hell happened??" I asked.
