10:00 am
Being in cheer in high school wasn't always easy. But either way how it goes, ups and down. I'm still very passionate about my sport.
"G- O, lets go!" Currently I was at cheer practice.
I was teaching 4 girls from the Junior Variety team.
I'm one of the team captains at Cliffside High School. There's one caption and two co-captains of the Varsity team. And one captain and co-captain of the Junior varsity team.
"That's good guys, now let's try it all together, yeah?"
I turn around facing the bleachers, making eye contact with Ethan Dolan.
I felt nervous staring at him, my heart start racing and my palms start sweating. It's kinda odd to catch the quarter back staring at me.
Along side him say his twin brother, Grayson Dolan. Friends Aaron, Cameron, Jack and Nate. I was friends with Grayson, the others plus Ethan, not so much.
"Y/n?" I was finally pulled out of that trance.
"Yes, I'm so sorry." I turned around "I'm ready now."
I called out the cheer loud and clear enough for everyone in the smaller gym to here.
It's weird because Ethan's friends were in there own conversations, while his eyes were still on me. And it was damn hard to concentrate.
After successfully doing the cheer the second time because Dana messed up, we went off to get drinks of water.
I was at my bag drinking my water bottle, faced away from Ethan and his buddies.
"Hey, Y/n you wanna go over two more cheers before practice ends?"
I nodded, "Yeah that's fine, JV needs as much practice as they can get for Friday's game."
I didn't notice but half way down the bleachers coming was Ethan, Grayson and Nate.
"You ready?"
Grayson ran down the gym while Ethan threw the football at him.
"I'm fucking amazing!" Grayson said after catching the ball, making sum freshman cheerleaders giggle.
He paid no attention to them.
"Guys that was cool, but you know the rules." Ashley said.
"Fuck the rules." Spoke Nate.
"Coach doesn't allow anyone in here during cheer practice, I can be kicked of the team because of you guys." Ashley frustratedly added.
"Yeah sorry," Ethan spoke, "It won't happen again."
"Anyways, let's congratulate Y/n on her new spot as captain on the team!" Grayson wrapped his arms around me from behind.
Like I said, me and Grayson are friends. We're not 'like that' we got paired up in geometry 5 months ago and had been friends ever since then. Grayson isn't really my type, he's pretty but he's not for me.
