The Gang Leader's Sister

Chapter 9

It is currently Friday October 31st and it is the big homecoming game. Mia and I are sitting in my truck taking shots of fireball from a bottle i kept hidden under my seat.

"We are so dead if we get caught."

I giggled. "I guess we won't get caught then."

She snorted and fireball shot out of her mouth. I laughed until my chest started hurting and then we both quietened down.

"So how are you and Ethan?"

I took a swing of the bottle and then put the top back on, shoving it under my seat. "We aren't. I haven't talked to him since my birthday." That's right i had messed things up, big time.

We jumped out of the truck and i fixed my hair in the rearview mirror. i made sure my bow was straight and my uniform didn't have any wrinkles. We laced arms and walked through the crowded parking lot and into the gates that lead to the football field. All of the girls were standing in a circle but the ticket booth, stretching.

"So after we stretch we have to meet behind the stadium. Then they will announce on the field to do our routine."

I joined in with the rest of the team stretching when i saw Damon walk in the entrance gates. He was dressed in his uniform and he shot me a slight nod as he walked over to officer Dan.

I closed my eyes and breathed as i let my muscles stretch. "Raine!"

I turned to see Mia and the girls jogging to behind the stadium. "Come on, its show time!"

I took one more look at Damon and jogged to catch up with the girls. Luckily Stella was in the back part of the group so i didn't have to deal with her.

We lined up in two lines, Mia leading one and me leading the other. We put our hands on our hips and stood in line till they called us.

"And here we have you're favorite girls, THE CHEERLEADERS."

The group started cheering and stomping the bleachers as we jogged onto the field. We jumped around and hopped and hollered hyping the town up.

We got into two horizontal lines with Mia and i dead in the center. We put our hands on our hips and Mia glanced my way. I gave her a nod and she smiled.

"READY?!"

The music cut on and we started our routine. Mia and i led but everyone was in sync with us. We were doing amazingly before the gunshots went off.

"BANG! BANG!"

Screams started and i grabbed Mia and we both fell to the ground. She looked frightened and she has tears coming form her eyes. "Hey M listen to me. We are going to get out of here and you are going to be fine okay."

She nodded and I grabbed her hand. More gun shots went off and i looked around. People were screaming and running out of the bleachers and onto the field around us. That gave us cover. I pulled Mia up and dragged her behind me, pulling her towards the parking lot to my truck.

We ran and we didn't look back. I stumbled but quickly caught myself and kept pulling her until we were hiding in my truck, ducking down into the seat. The only sound was our heavy breathing and then a big knock on my window.

We jumped up and i saw that it was just Damon. I let out a breath i was holding and swung the door open. "You don't sneak up on people like that asshole."

He gave a small smile and brushed a piece of hair that had fell out of my pony tail out of my face. "Are you okay?"

I pulled away and nodded. "I'm fine, where is my brother?"
