I lace up the laces to my Nikes, and dust off the dirt on my knees before following my cheer squad out onto the field.
"Vanessa, Carly, Gabbie, your on bottom, Bea, Macy your next, and then liza, let's go ladies." My coach claps her hands and we break, climbing on top of each other and forming a pyramid.
Being the lightest I'm always on top, I balance on top of the two girls, holding for a second before we dismantle.
We practice front handsprings, my couch judging everyone of us, telling us to fix our backs, and our chins.
As I'm waiting in line I can't help but watch the football players run onto the field.
The team captain leading them, Joshua and their team of 10 other players.
One of their players sits out, selling water. David.
I don't know why, but I have allways had a thing for him, he's kind and I have heard funny. I don't understand why they won't let him play, and I can't stop thinking about him, no matter how many people tell me he is a freak.
"Koshy! Your up." My couch says. I get a running start before I do my handspring, earning a nod from the judge.
"Very nice. Try to straighten up a little on your take off, but otherwise very nice." She says, and I smile.
"Okay! Next!"
As the last of our girls finish up I walk over to the bench, grabbing my water bottle and sitting next to Bea and Gabbie.
"Good practice guys!" Our coach yells, "see you guys at the game Saturday."
We wave her goodbye, and I pull out a granola bar, biting into it softly as the girls talk.
"Who do you guys think is the hottest?" Macy asks. I can't help but roll my eyes. Bea thinks for a second before replying.
"Definitely Joshua."
"I don't know I think Bradley is super cute!" Vanessa says, laughing.
Gabbie hits her arm.
"Yeah, duh because he's your boyfriend." She giggles and I laugh.
"What about you, Liza?" Gabbie asks.
I blush, swallowing the granola bar.
"I don't know..." I say, looking down.
"Come on! You haven't had a boyfriend for 2 years! The cheerleaders are the hottest girls in the school, and tons of guys like you." Bea says, with Macy nodding.
"Fine, I like Joshua." I lie and they smile.
We talk about other things for a second and then a question escapes my mouth.
"What do you guys know about David?" I ask.
Carly let's out a scoff.
"you mean the freak, who sells water?" she asks, I nod.
"Oh I wouldn't call him a freak..." I say defending him.
"Liza, you don't like him....do you?" Bea asks, raising an eyebrow.
I shake my head.
"Good. Because cheerleaders date hot football players, not freaks who give out water on the sidelines." Vanessa says.
"Never mind. Your right...i would never date him." I say as they nod their heads at me.
"Come on girls, let's go get changed." I say to them, they nod and we go to change and shower.
