got up and changed into some skinny jeans and a jumper that read “R.I.P Diet” with cupcakes all over. It was a pretty funny jumper. I also chucked on some blue Vans. I headed downstairs and grabbed my purse, phone and bag. I noticed a sticky note on my purse. It read:

 

I’ve given you some money for lunch. I also gave you some extra to do some shopping after school.

Love always, Dad. Xx

P.S Mark is picking you up for school.

 

I gave a smile and opened my purse, he’d put in $200. I shook my head and had a giggle. He always put more than he should in my purse. But it’s the thought that counts. I heard a car tooting out the front. I walked out to see Mark in a 4 door UTE. Abby waved at me. I walked over and jumped in.

“Hey Sarah!” Abby smiled.

“Like my new car? It’s taken me and my Dad a year to fix up.” Mark smiled.

“It really suits you Mark. Ready for school maaaan?” I laughed.

Abby looks back to me and begins to smile.

“Cheer tryouts have been moved up. They’re in the Gym first, second and third lesson.”  I winked to Sarah.

“Oh cool! I’m so nervous!” She sighed.

“You’ll be fine. Should have seen my first try out. I can do all forms of summersaults but I chose to do a cartwheel. WORST IDEA EVER.” My eyes widened.

Mark and Abby burst out in laughter. It was funny than too. What happened was I did a cheer for our school mascot the Cheetah and when I went to do a cartwheel.. I may have gone too far forward and knocked myself into the table. Somehow I made the squad though.

“We’re here!” Abby called.

I looked out the window and noticed we were already at school. Wow that was quick.

I got out and stood by Abby when I had someone grab my shoulder and turn me around.

“Hey Babe.” Dan sang.

I glared at him. How dare he call me babe? I felt like vomiting.

“Don’t ever call me that. Ever’.” I histed.

 Dan laughed. He went to put his arm around my shoulder. I quickly pushed it off and took a step back.

“Dude what’s your problem?” I heard from behind me.

I turned to see Mark glaring at Dan. It kinda made me blush. He looked so angry. This might not turn out well.

“Butt out new kid.” Dan smirked looking at me.

“My name isn’t new kid. It’s Mark. Genius” Mark glared but whispering the last word.

I turned and signed to keep walking. Mark seen my gesture and followed. I heard Dan saying something under his breath. But I ignored him.

Mark ended up going to class and I lead Abby towards the gym. There was a line of about twenty girls.

“Alright. Me, Kerry and Jane do the cerography. So every year we have tryouts and only we three are guaranteed. However, if we like what you give us, you may stick next year!” I explained.

Abby smiled. I could see she begun to get nervous. I pulled her in for a hug then gave her the thumbs up. I had faith in her.

I sat at a table with Kerry and Jane. Kerry had been with this squad since the school opened few years ago. I tried out 2 years ago. She’s now a senior, when she leaves at the end of the year it will just be me and Jane. We’re both year 11. She’s been my friend since Kindergarten. Her step brother Kyle and I did date, well before their parents got married. We dated for 2 years. Till I had, family issues. Me and Kyle are now really close friends. His girlfriend lives about an hour away, we get along so well I’m her “watching man” to make sure no girl tries to flirt with Kyle. It’s adorable.

One by one we had girls try out. We reached girl number 16. Her name was Paige Higgins.

“Okay, when you’re ready Paige.” Jane called out.

She started off with a flip before doing a cheer. She then begun a dance to the song ‘How we do- Rita Ora’ her movements were perfect. She kept up with the timing and she always smiled. But half way through the song, she started to do some… inappropriate dance moves. I could tell Jane agreed with me, however Kerry seemed.. Impressed?

 At the end of her tryout she stood before us.

“Thank you we’ll be in touch.” Jane called out.

She walked off. Pleased with herself. Like seriously? What the hell.

“Well, 16 down. 5 left and we only have 12 spots. We had 4 guys tryout. We needed 4 so they all make it. 8 girls to choose out of 17. This is going to be interesting.” Kerry sighed.

I already had a draft in my head of who I wanted but I’m anxious to see what Abby brings to us.

“Next, Abby.” I called out.

Abby came in, she looked tense. I gave her a smile and a small ‘you can do it’ nod. She instantly relaxed. She began with a dance to the song ‘Ready or not- Bridget Mendler’.

She was fantastic. Her dancing was modern but appropriate. She did perfect tucks and flips and she perfected her ending. I was so proud of her!

“That was fantastic! We’ll be in touch.” I smiled widely.

The next 4 went quickly. Each performed well. But could improve. It was now third lesson into the day and the three of us sat in a circle with each person’s picture. We had a ‘NO’, ‘YES and ‘POSSIBLE’ pile. We put the boys in the yes pile straight away. It took us quite a while to choose but our final draft was both great and fall of talent.

Our new team was Xavier, Dean, Lucas, Matty. Myself, Jane, Kerry, Abby, Paige, Mika, Danni, Courtney, Jessica, Shontelle and Mary. Our squad the Cheetah’s.

 

 

Lunch time

Marks P.O.V

 

I walked out to my car to grab my phone out. I heard a laughter from behind so I turned around to see a tall, skinny girl with bleached hair and cake faced standing before me. Her eyes scanned me head to toe.

“Well hello good looking.” She smirked. Ewwl.

“Hi. Move please.” I replied making my way past. She grabbed my arm and turned me back.

“Ugh, I didn’t even catch your name?” she sighed leaning her head to the side.

“Mark.” I replied raising my eyebrows. Is this chick for real?

“I’m Paige. Single by the way.” She began to slowly move her hand up my arm.

“K, bye.” I quickly walked away, without looking back.

I couldn’t believe she even thought she’d have a chance with me. Who does she think she is?

“Move… New kid.” I look up to see Dan pushing himself past me giving me a glare. Great I have my first enemy!

I walked over to the cafeteria and seen Sarah sitting with Abby. Wait Abby’s wearing….a cheer uniform?

“Abby, is that-“She cut me off.

“Yes, yes it is. I made the team. Old news alright.” She blurted out.

Sarah looked concern. I know it’s not my place to say. When Abby is ready she’ll tell her.

“Anyway..” I widened my eyes.

I looked up to see all our friends sitting at the table.

“So movie night at mine tomorrow night. I’ll have food, snacks blah blah. Any particular movie let me know!” Sarah smiled.

Ahh that smile gets to me. I didn’t know whether to jump up and yell yes multiple times or just to act cool as a reply. Oh who am I kidding act cool is always the answer.

“Sounds cool. I’m there.” I said calm and relaxed. She smiled. God I really like her smile.

“Awesome.” She replied. With a slight blush.

Everyone else said they’ll be there and suggested movies. Now I got to think whether to get her a present or not.

“Hey, we gotta go. Mum needs a hand shopping.” I felt Abby tug my shirt.

I nodded and turned back to Sarah, she looked a bit sad to see us go.

“I’ll get you when schools over yeah?” I said, partly whispering.

“Oh that’d help me out a lot, hope it’s alright?” she replied biting her lip.

I nodded with a big smile. Me and Abby left school and went over to my car. Abby was smiling, a little too much.

“What’s up with you?” I asked raising a brow.

“That depends.” She replied with a high pitch voice.

“On what exactly? I asked confused getting into the car. She got into the passenger side.

“What’s the go with you and Sarah?” she asked nudging my shoulder.

I felt my cheeks go red. Oh crap.

“She’s um. Nice.” I replied sighing.

I started the car and we drove to the nearest shopping centre to meet mum. I ignored Abby for an hour. But I remember I wanted to get Sarah a git. I told mum I needed to go into a shop quickly and I’d meet her at the car. I went into the gift shop near the exit but I didn’t realise Abby had followed me in.

“Alright. What are you doing?” she said jumping in front of me. I froze. I stood for a moment unsure whether to tell her I was planning on getting Sarah a gift.

“I’m. Uhg-“She cut me off.

“Are looking for a present for Sarah? Let me help.” She sighed turning around. We began to look around.

As we got through the checkout I heard a girls giggle. I ignored it and paid for Sarah’s presents. I got her a blue jumper that had ‘I love Husky’s’ written on it. I also got her a jewellery box and bracelet with charms to put on it. Me and Abby decided to go halves as it cost a fair bit. I could’ve afforded it easily but that’s a lot to spend on someone I met yesterday. I kinda liked her, I mean she’s nice, athletic and really pretty. But I still hardly know her.

We made our way home. I looked over to see Abby on my phone.

“What are you doing?” I questioned.

She began to smile and hoped out the car as we pulled up into the drive way. She placed my phone in my hands. I helped take the groceries inside and went upstairs to my room I laid on my bed trying to figure out what she done on my phone. I placed in beside me and began to think about basketball. I try out for the team Monday.

“bzzz bzzzz bzzzz bzzzz*

My phone vibrated loudly. I looked over to see a message.

Sarah-

Hey, that’s cool I don’t mind. J So what movies do ya wanna watch tomorrow? –S

 

Wait, don’t mind?

I had a look through my sent box, turns out I had messaged her asking if it was cool I got her number from Abby. Great, thanks Abby.

I replied:

Cool J oh I don’t really care, I like most movies well not girly one lol I’ll let you know if I think of one –M

I felt like a goof. I smiled then entire time I typed it. I looked at the time, 2:45. I better go pick her up.

I jumped up and headed downstairs, I opened up the front door to see Abby leaning against a car. A male figure had his back to me. I knew him for some reason. I went over to my Ute and jumped in. I started the car and headed for the school. Forgetting to look back at who Abby was talking to. It wasn’t long before I got to the school. I parked directly out the front and seen Sarah talking to another girl by the office. I waited. She looked really pretty, she was wearing the Cheer uniform. I hadn’t noticed it earlier for some reason. It had a crop top with a decently long skirt. It was black and gold. On the top it had ‘CHEETAH’ with claws either side. It looked great, on Sarah that is.

She seen me staring. She smiled and began walking to the car. I couldn’t help but wonder what she was thinking.

 

 

 

Sarah’s P.O.V

I walked up to Marks car getting into the passenger seat. He had a
