Disclaimer:  I don't own Jamie, Mr. Banks (he's based on Louie Banks from the book Running Loose) and the Spring Hills cross-country team (they're based on my own cross country team)

Summary:  As punishment Jamie has to join the cross country team

Author's Notes:  I know you guys are waiting for the next chapter of "Snowfall", but I really wanted to write this story.  It's pre-snowfall, so Tyler and Catie's stepsister, Gabby are still alive.

Help! I'm Trapped on the Cross Country Team!

Prologue

        "Watie, stay here.  I want to talk to you,'' Mr. Banks, my English teacher said as the bell rang.  I groaned wondering what I hadn't done this time.

        "I heard the comment you made the other day about the cross country team and," Mr. Banks said, and I wondered just what anti-jock comment he was talking about, "As punishment I have arranged for you to become part of the team for a season.  So you will understand just how much work it takes."  My first thought was that Catie was going to kill me when she found out and my second was, how could I get out of it.

        "I can't do it," I said as an excuse came to me, "I'm an EMT."

        "Not to worry, you can leave when ever you get a call."  Mr. Banks said and I knew I had been beat, "I'll see you on the track at 2:20."

        As I walked out of the classroom I thought, how hard and can it be?

A/N: I hoped you liked it, the next chapter should be out in about two weeks or so.  Please review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
