Thanks for all of the reviews guys! I hope you continue to enjoy the story. As always reviews make me happy. lol
"Mouthy!" Rachel called after Mouth as she ran to catch up with him. "I need a favor."
"This isn't going to be good," Mouth said with a big grin.
"Hey now."Rachel said with mock hurt as she playfully slapped his arm. "Be nice to your overly hot best friend."
"What does Brooke need something?" Mouth joked sticking out his tongue.
"So not funny," Rachel said pouting.
"Aww Rach, come on don't pout. I was just kidding. You know you're my only overly hot best friend. So what can I do for you."
"Oh yeah I almost forgot the whole reason I was looking for you. I need you to help me help the squad."
"Oh God...this really isn't going to be good."
"Oh hush and listen to me for a second please. I thought it would be cool of us to help with a new routine since there's an extra on the squad and all with Haley on it now."
"Umm..well that does sound good. But honestly Rachel I don't want to mess with Brooke's squad. She tends to suffer from rage black outs."
"Does she really? That's very O.C. of her."
"Well she did spend the summer in California."
"Oh whatever that isn't the point. The point is in the long run it would help her because the routine she has at the moment is best for 8 we have 9. So we need a new routine so we can win the classic."
"When you put it that way I guess it's ok," Mouth said starting to give in. "But if she freaks out you have to face her wrath not me."
"Oh I wouldn't have it any other way," Rachel said with a wink.
"Oh gosh please would you stop thinking about sex for I don't know maybe 5 minutes. She's very likely going to rip your head off."
"For your information I wasn't thinking about sex right then. I was thinking about how I wouldn't want anything to happen to my Mouthy if Brooke gets too upset." Rachel said putting her arm around his shoulders giving him a sideways hug.
"Yeah sure you were."
"Hey guys what are we talking about," Bevin said as she linked her arm with Mouth's.
"Nothing babe," Mouth answered his girlfriend as he placed a quick kiss on her cheek. "Rach just asked me to help come up with a routine for 9."
"That's a good idea Rach. But Brooke is gonna kill you."
"No, she won't Bev," Rachel started, "it is really to help out all of us. I'm not trying to over step her or anything just trying to help."
"Well that's really nice of you. I'm sure she'll understand when you explain it to her. Don't you think she will?" Bevin said addressing her last question to Mouth.
"Yeah I guess she will," he answered with a shrug.
The three made their way to the rest of the squad who had already arrived for practice.
"Hey everyone." Rachel, Bevin, and Mouth all said as they walked up to the group of cheerleaders.
"Hey," the others responded.
"Rachel, what's the deal? Brooke isn't even here." Peyton asked sounding annoyed.
"Relax Blondie. I asked Mouth here if he'd help us figure out a routine that would work for 9, since we do have an extra now."
"Oh ok. Sounds like a good idea. Did you run it past Brooke?" Peyton asked knowing the answer already.
"Umm ok everyone get in position and watch and listen to Mouth," Rachel hollered ignoring the tall blonde's question.
An hour later Brooke was making her way across the quad and saw that the rest of the squad was there. She also noticed that Rachel seemed to be leading them in what looked like a new routine. Oh hell no! Brooke thought as she started to jog toward her squad.
"Just what in the hell do you think you're doing Rachel?"
"Why, we're practicing. What's it look like we're doing?"
"It looks like you're trying to take over my squad yet again." Brooke said her voice getting louder and her tone more dangerous.
"Paranoid much? I'm just trying to help out. Your routine is for 8 this one is better for 9. Calm down for Christ's sake." Rachel said her voice now raising to match Brooke's.
"Oh yes I forgot you're this angel sent here to help and save us all aren't you?"
"I'm glad you finally realized that, Brooke." Rachel said gaining control over herself. I am not going to let her get to me.
"Oh just shut the hell up Rachel. We are not using this routine. We are using my routine the one we all already know. Is that clear?" Brooke said yelling at the entire squad now.
Everyone shook their heads that yes it was understood. "Good you can all go now."
"Brooke," Peyton said walking up to her friend after they all had left. "Don't you think you were a little harsh? I mean she does kinda have a point."
"No Peyton. That vapid tramp is not trying to help anyone but herself. We're using my routine next week at the pep rally and that's all there is to it."
Thank God next week isn't the classic. Peyton thought as she walked off.
A Week Later.
"Ok girls, we can do this. Everyone do your best and remember to have fun." Brooke said to her squad just as they were about to walk out to the gym floor.
The song started and the routine was going perfectly. Ha, yeah right, and my routine wouldn't work with 9 people. Brooke thought as she continued going through the moves she could do in her sleep. Then out of the corner of her eye she noticed that two of her girls had fallen. This can't be happening. But it was. If we had just used Rachel's routine me and my squad wouldn't be embarrassed right now.
The girls walked off the floor back to the locker room with their heads hung in defeat.
"Way to go captain," Rachel gloated. "We're using my routine and that settles it." Rachel continued to mock.
"Rachel, if I were you I would shut up right about now," Brooke said her voice dangerously low.
"Why Brooke? You can't handle the truth?" At this point the rest of the squad knew it was probably better to stand back and let the two be.
"Rachel I'm warning you. You better shut the hell up." Brooke said advancing toward Rachel.
"No Brooke. Because of your selfishness me, you, and the rest of the squad just humiliated ourselves in front of most of the town. If you would have just listened to me none of this would have happened."
"Well if you hadn't been in here trying to take over everything that's mine I might have listened to you." Brooke yelled trying to hang onto what little self control she had as she made her way even closer to the red head.
"Whatever Brooke can't handle a little competition?"
"I told you to shut up," Brooke finally losing control and slapping the other girl in the face.
"Oh you are so going to wish you never did that," Rachel shot out lunging at the captain.
Woot...there's about to be a what? A GIRL FIGHT! Ok so I hope you like this chapter. Umm let me know. So review and I'll love you forever.
