So new story! I was watching Stick It! and checked to see if there was any fanfic for a Hayley revealing fic where others find out about her World's history from when she walked out so here's one of a couple of people hearing it or being told.

Chapter 1

Overheard

"Shake it off, Hayley. Come on, you've got another event let's finish big. Warm up, Mina. Let's go, 'scuse me," Hayley had just stormed off and Coach Burt ran off after her yelling her name.

"Maybe we should check on her," Wei-Wei said. She felt guilty about what she had said earlier to the girl and wanted to go make it up to her as she was obviously in emotional distress that girl time and some ice cream entailed (hey they're still gymnasts). Both had realized soon after Hayley had started her routine that they had just been fooled by Joanne and her mind games. They didn't realize that their words, along with Burt's, were the final straws to push her over her emotional edge. Mina agreed and together they went to check on Hayley, forgetting that Mina had to warm up.

They got over to the exit doors that Hayley and Burt were arguing in and stood to the side listening in until they, or just Wei-Wei because Mina had to compete, could go in and 'rescue' their overemotional teammate.

"Haley, you're not leaving like this. You're gonna go back in there. Finish this meet. Don't make this another Worlds. - No. - Don't bail," even they could hear that Burt was trying everything he could to bring her back in and calm her down again enough to compete in the floor event. Too bad they all knew Hayley was a

"You don't know the first thing about Worlds," the girls clearly felt the venom that was directed at their coach and was surprised that she didn't jump and tear his throat out.

"Fine, I give up. You know, we gave it a shot. I'll talk to your father. Maybe you should go back to Defrank's. Chris Defrank's? Hey...," Burt was trying to appease the girl.

"You want me to go back to Defrank's," Hayley was still pissed and obviously had some tears still leaking out, but it was obvious she was still mad. The older coach was still trying

"Well, you don't listen to me. Clearly you listened to him long enough to..." Burt tried to say more, but was cut off by a smaller, less confident voice that neither the girls, nor Burt could believe came from the strong girl in front of them.

"Yeah, long enough to hook up with my mom," Hayley whimpered and the tears were brought back to her eyes in more force than when she was on the beam. Wei-Wei and Mina just looked at each other. Their were no words for what was going through their heads at that moment.

"Hmm," Burt asked wanting clarification? He had old ears and couldn't hear as well as the teens.

"Long enough for him to...," there was a pause as Hayley took a very needed steading breath, "...rip my family apart." Burt was stunned, but quickly pulled himself together enough to ask.

"Oh, hey. When d...," He took a steadying breath too. "When did ya find this out?" She gave a little laugh.

"Before floor...," another small chuckle, "...at Worlds." She looked down at her hands that were covered by her sleeves as her voice cracked at the last word. She pulled her hands out and played with her finger tips so she didn't need to look up.

"Aw, Haley, I...I had no idea," everyone was stunned, MIna and Wei-Wei peeked around the doorway. Seeing the girl who always had a comeback to anything anyone said or did to her looking as broken as glass thrown to the ground, rally was an eyeopener to how the girl was still using that attitude as a mask to hide her true feelings about her parents divorce.

"I'm sorry," Burt just wasn't allowed to speak anymore he was cut off again by the emotionally tormented girl standing in front of him.

"You know what," Hayley said? "You didn't owe it to me to be a decent coach," she stopped and took a step closer to Burt. "You owed it to me to be a decent human being," she regained her normal look and stormed out of the doors to meet Frank and Poot. Burt stood there for a second before walking back into the stadium. Then he noticed his girls standing by the door.

"So how long have you both been here," he asked as he pinched the bridge of his nose?

"Long enough to know why Hayley walked out on Worlds," Mina was the first to regain use of her vocal cords. Burt sighed.

"Girls if Hayley comes back she will need support and even if she does come to me for it she won't tell me everything that happened and if you tell her you know what happened, she may open up to you both," Burt said this with an undertone of sadness. "In the mean time, Mina I thought I told you to warm up." Mina rushed off because she had wasted time when they went after Hayley. Burt walked back with Wei-Wei to the chairs. "I want you girls to help Hayley if/when she comes back to the gym," he turned to face the Asian girl. "You two seem to be the only other people her age to know what happened before her floor event at Worlds, and it would help her a lot to have someone to talk to," he sighed and walked off.

I think this will be three chapters long. I'm trying to stay shorter with my stories until I can really get into writing because my college life has gotten hectic and it won't let up until half of December and January and then pick up and go until the end of March. On top of the sports I will be carrying 18 credits next semester, though right now I have 19 so not much of a let up for me. Next chapter is done and the last is very close, but I wanted to get something of it up.

Live Long and Read,
