CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
"I'm going to drop the girls off at the gym then take you boys to soccer and basketball." Dad told us
We agreed and five minutes later we're at the gym.
Brooke, Jessica, and I run inside because we're a little late.
"Glad you two finally showed up!" Dusty said to Jessica and I
"We had family and friends over." Jessica explained
"We're really sorry! It was the only time we could have a quick going away party." I added
"Ok. Now, Molly is on floor so Jessica beam and Sadie bars." Dusty told us, "Mandy is sick so I'm taking over until she's well. Anyway, in ten minutes we are all going to stop and meet back here."
We nodded then went to where we were supposed to be.
*ten minutes later*
"Ok! You each are going to do all four routines performing to one another and myself. We'll start with bar. Jessica then Molly and lastly Sadie." Dusty explained
We nodded and ran off to bars after getting our grips.
As soon as we were all ready Dusty started Jessica's bar routine music. It was outstanding! Even the front flip at the end.
Jessica finished then Molly took her place and Dusty started the music.
Molly's routine was near perfect! She only stumbled on the front flip at the end.
Then it was my turn and I did pretty good other than stumbling when I landed the front flip at the end.
"Jessica, outstanding! Molly, close to perfect! Sadie, fabulous." Dusty told us, "Molly and Sadie you both need to work on the front flip. Next vault, same order."
We all nodded then ran to vault.
Jessica did a running round off, back handspring twist landing on her butt. Vault was not Jessica's strong point.
Molly did the same thing just a double twist instead, stumbling at the end. Vault wasn't her best either.
I did a running double round off, backhand spring, triple twist backflip. Landing perfectly. Vault is my strongest point.
[A/N idk if any of those exists, but if they don't pretend they do.]
"Jessica! You need to land it! Molly, try not to stumble at the end. I know it's hard landing. Sadie! Perfect!" Dusty told us, "Now to beam."
I was smiling until I saw Jessica holding tears back.
"Jessi? It'll be ok!" I told her
"I-I'm horrible at vault!" she replied
"You're not horrible! It's just not your strong point! If you were horrible you wouldn't be going to the Olympics!"
"I-I know. Thanks Sadie."
I smiled and we hurried to beam.
"There you two are! Jessica you first." Dusty said
So Jessica mounted the beam. This is secretly her strong point since she's been working on it so much.
Front walkover, front handspring,double backhand spring, backflip, turn, walk backwards, and round off backhand spring off the beam. It was perfect.
Molly did almost the same thing only at the end doing a running front flip instead. It was amazing.
I mounted the beam did two front walkovers, double back handspring, back walkover, and a backflip off the beam just barely landing.
"Jessica, perfect! Molly, almost perfect! Sadie, work on it in your free time!" Dusty told us, "Lastly floor."
