Lakira's pov- I woke up and got ready for school like normal. Today, the results for cheer will me posted. I'm ready but I'm still scared. I've never done this before. At my old highschool I just went like a normal person when I felt like it. I never thought I'd go to this school and try out for this school's cheer team. But here I am. Joey honked while I was walking outside.
Joey: Goodmorning beautiful Lakira: Hi Baby Joey: Let me see you real quick Lakira: Okay
I stepped back while he pulled out his phone. His ass started recording me and hyping me up for my outfit.
Joey: Look at my baby guys. She got that drip Lakira: Sholl do Joey: Mmm look at her. Look at her
I did a spin then dropped. I started laughing when I got back up. He stopped recording and posted it.
I looked at his story and admired my outfit.

Lakira: Thank you baby Joey: No problem baby. I know you're stressed about today Lakira: I am especially because Ms.Sky is the coach Joey: Seriously? Lakira: Yeah
We talked about it for a little while and then pulled up to the school. We went through our like normal. I avoided eye contact with Ms.Sky obviously. I don't understand why but I just can't face her. I just can't.
Joey and I met up at my locker.
Joey: Results are posted at lunch. Ready?
I nodded. He held my hand the whole time. The sheet was posted on the wall. I looked for my name, sliding my finger down the paper. I finally saw it, my name in bold letters: Lakira Sky.
My heart was beating so fast. I was so happy. I looked at Joey and smiled.
Joey: Congratulations beautiful
I hugged him so tight. It felt amazing to experience this moment with him.
Lakira: Baby I made it!!! Joey:I see that
We got lunch and talked about what I was going to do.
Lakira: Well there was y'all about me being a captain Kara: Seriously? That would be huge! Lakira: Yeah but then I might have to give up a lot of time I devote to the gang Aaron: Isn't that a good thing? Lakira: What? Aaron: I mean it is dangerous. You could get killed Lakira: I've been with them since I was little. I was running this shit. They're family so why would I give it up? Joey back me up Joey: Well it is a little dangerous. You did almost get shot Kara: Look I know they're family but maybe you can try to lay off the danger for a minute Lakira: The only way to do that is if I bless someone in. Like I have to actually have a child or bless someone else in Aaron: Then do that Lakira: It's not that simple. It's a whole process and I'm still in it. And I still have to do some shit but I don't have to do a lot. It's complicated Joey: Obviously but do what you please baby.
I signaled for Joey to come and grab my tray. He did and tossed it for me. As he sat down I was called to Ms.Sky's office along with two other girls. I said bye to everyone and headed over.
When I got in her office, she asked me to sit down between the other two girls. I did and waited in her to speak.
Coach: So as you know you three have made it on my squad. This is a big deal because I am making you three captains
My face lit up. We all looked at each other smiling.
Coach: Now you all scored the highest at tryouts but Lakira you scored an overall perfect score. Which means you're head captain of the varsity team!
I seriously couldn't speak. I squealed a bit. The other two girls clapped. Loren was one of them. She gave a smile but I knew it was fake. I didn't care.
Coach went on to talk to us about our responsibilities and other things we have to worry about. I was in charge of uniforms, schedules, and a few other things. The co captains would help me with those things and smaller jobs. I decided to schedule a meeting after school. After coach approved I went to the office and told the office lady to make the announcement. After she did I got the other girls' numbers and went back to class.
