"Yeah, see you Monday!" she cried, waving goodbye.

I waved back as the last bell of the day rang. The corridors were mostly empty apart from the few students who took part in the school activies or clubs. I grabbed my books for the week-end and stuffed them into my bag.

It was Friday, which meant I had cheerleader practrice. I hurried over to the sports locker room and quickly changed into my blue and white outfit. I ran out to the football field where the rest of my teammates were warming up.

"Okay girls, today we're going to practice our last routine for the big game" shouted Liv, our captain.

"Isn't that in like, three weeks?" asked Jojo.

"Yes, which means we only have about 7 hours to get it perfect."

Jojo rolled her eyes at my best friend and I smiled. We already knew our choreography but of course Liv, 100% of a perfectionist, would want us to repeat, at least a thousand times, the same jumps and lifts.

I was walking down the busy street, my earphones in and my playlist on shuffle. The sky was blue but there was a cold breeze and the tall buildings were hiding the sun.

I buried my hands in my pockets and hurried round the corner when the full force of a person suddenly crashed into me. I lost my balance, tripping forwards, as a tight arm griped around my waist, holding me steady.

Once the dizziness had stop and my racing heart had calmed down, I turned around to face my savior, a teenage boy about my age. My face turned red as I noticed how close our bodies were.

"I'm... I'm... sorry..." he panted.

I looked closely at him. His blond hair was wet and he had bright green eyes.

"I... running... didn't see you... couldn't stop" he finished, out of breath.

"It's fine, really. Don't worry about it" I answered smiling.

I stepped back and picked up my school bag that had landed on the ground while the cute stranger was catching his breath. Cute stranger? Who was I kidding. He was gorgeous!
His white T-shirt was soaked with sweat and I frowned as I noticed his dark green sweatpants.

"What?" he asked, looking down on himself.

"You're from LKHS?" I asked with fake disgust look on my face as I noticed our rivale high school's initiales.

"Yeah, why? Where you from?" he asked.

"AWHS "

"AWHS" he snorted "What a dumbass school" he mocked playfully.

"Is not!"

He just laughed and put his earphones back in.

"Yeah, well see you on the field " he shouted as he ran off down the street.

I put my own earphones back and continued my way home to the apartment.

I ran up stairs and unlocked the door. I smiled. I had the apartment all to myself. Harper had went to Sophie's straight after school and mum was going to be late home.

Food? Or shower?
I was all sweaty and sticky after my practice and really needed a shower but I was hungry...
My stomach rumble, making the decision for me. I grabbed a cereal bar before heading to the bathroom.

I hadn't yet turned the shower on but I heard the water gurgling in the pipes. I got into the shower and stuck my ear against the wall. Water was running on the other side.

"... I had my eyes up on the prize
Ain't watching anybody else
But your love..." chanted my neighbour.

I turned my own water on for it to warm up and got undressed.

"... the cards that I've been dealt
Do you feel the same as well?" I heard as I stepped in.

"You know I used to be in 1D?
Now I'm out, free
People want me for one thing
That's not me
I'm not changing, the way, that I
Used to be
I just wanna have fun
And get rowdy.

One Coke and Bacardie"

"Sippin' lightly" I joined.

"When I walk inside the party"

"Girls on me"

"F1 type Ferrari"

"6 gear speed"

"Girls, I love it when your body"

"Grinds on me."

I reached for my shampoo bottle and used it as a mic while we continued our duet.

"You know, I love it,
When the music's loud,
But c'mon strip that down for me

Now there's a lot of people in the crowd
But only you can dance with me"

I started to dance and closed my eyes for the next part, putting on a whole show, as if I was giving a live concert.

"So put your hands on my body
And swing that round for me
Baby
You know, I love it,
When the music's loud
But c'mon strip that down for me"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" I flicked my wet hair over my shoulder and finished with what was suppose to be a cool/sexy stare.
