y/n pov
today was sunday which meant it was open gym day. open gym was always fun because my coaches weren't there and I could do my skills without being corrected or having to do conditioning. it was just sort of a fun day to do whatever I wanted in the gym.
going to open gym has become a very noticeable pattern among my family and friends. of course I would go to church/temple/sleep in (idk if you have a religion or not but just insert whatever fits you best) and then from there I would go to open gym for a few hours. it has helped my skills and technique improve a lot because I could focus more on myself and not have to worry about my team.
like everyone else, my boyfriend tom had noticed this pattern and decided he would join me at open gym next time I went, which is today. I texted him the address before hand and we decided to meet up there. before I got out of the car I adjusted my bow in the mirror and made sure my hair looked ok before I walked inside. I saw tom sitting on one of the chairs, he immediately came up and hugged me.
"hey love!" he said kissing my cheek.
"hi!" I said hugging him back, "lets go stretch out."
I led him to the back room where we placed our stuff. a few of my friends where there and I said hi to them before grabbing my nfinitys/nikes/varsitys (they're cheer shoe brands, chose any one idc) and walked out into the spring floor. a few people were there other than tom and I.
"so how was your week tom?" I asked stretching out my shoulders.
"pretty good, I went out with some friends, did some work, and also I took Tessa for a walk this morn-HOLY S*** Y/N HOW CAN YOU DO THAT?" tom nearly yelled as I pulled my arm behind my head.
out of most of the cheerleaders in our gym, I was one of most flexible ones. I was a few steps ahead of most of the people my age.
"that's sick!" he said trying to mimic my stretches.
I laughed, " thanks tom, you're not too bad yourself."
after we stretched, tom had the most glorious idea.
"y/n, we should stunt," he said.
I looked at him in disbelief, "tom you've never stunted before."
"teach me! I see you when you base all of those other girls, and also when they hold you up in the air," he said.
"ok, so lets do a running prep. i'll take four setps for 2 counts and you'll grab onto to one foot and throw me up while I spin 180 degrees and then youll catch me by my feet. and make sure to hold the center," I told him.
he looked very confused but nodded. I took a few steps back so I could go into the prep position.
"tom are you sure about this?" I asked.
"yes! I promise I wont drop you!" he said squatting down into his prep position.
"ok, 5, 6, 7, 8..." I began to count and walk into his hand.
he ended up accidently throwing me foreword in which I landed on my knees. he immediately gasped and ran to my side.
"are you alright love?" he asked panicking.
"tom you're lucky this is spring floor, but we should probably try this by the pit next time," I said getting up.
"im so sorry darling, I didn't mean to drop you," he said as he followed me over to the pit with foam blocks in them so that when you fall in, you wont get hurt.
"its fine, it happened to all of us, lets try this again," I said getting into the prep position. I began counting on five. this time, tom threw me up too high and I went over the top of his head and into the foam pit. I began to die of laughter. he helped me out and we tried a few more times before we finally got it.
he brought me down quickly and ran to grab his phone. he set it up on one of the blocks and pressed the 'film' button.
"hey guys! y/n and I are here at open gym and im going to show you our stunt," he said stepping back and he got into his position and I did too. I began to count and not long after, he was holding my up effortlessly.
"y/n, can I push you up into extension now?" he asked.
I hesitated, usually that was a bit scary in one man stunting, and since it was toms first time stunting I was a bit nervous.
"ok, but lock your arms and be careful," I said.
"trust me we got this," he said.
"ok so dip down and then push up," I instructed him.
I started the counts and he actually did an extension on his first try.
after a few seconds of us celebrating, tom lost balance and we both fell backwords into the foam pit.
