Chapter 10

Bella's POV

Well today's the day were going to the gym and I am excited but nervous. We were all in Edward's Volvo, Alice and Rosalie were in the back and I was in the front with Edward.

They were both wearing white Juicy Couture sweatpants but they had different designs on them. Alice had on a pink puma tank top with white and pink puma trainers. And Rosalie had a plain black tank top on with white converse shoes.

I still don't know why they would wear the sweatpants since they are very expensive, but then again they are rich.

I had on grey nike cropped cuffed pants with a blue nike tank top on and white gymnastics shoes.

(Outfits on website)

Edward was just wearing normal clothes since he was going to be watching.

My stomach had butterflies, I sighed and looked out of the window for a distraction, since lets face it there was no way in hell I was talking with Alice and Rosalie about the latest fashion for a distraction.

Edward must have caught my nervousness because he placed his hand on top of mine and gave it a gentle squeeze.

I looked to him and gave him a smile. He returned it and looked back to the road ahead.

Remembering something I had put in my bag, I pulled it onto my lap and routed out two knee supports. Putting my bag back I pulled my cropped sweatpants up a bit and after a bit of trouble I managed to get them up my legs and to my knees.

"You gonna be ok Bella?", Alice asked. I looked behind and saw Alice was looking towards my knees.

"Yeah I'm gonna be fine, but it's best to be safe", I told her.

She nodded and went back to talking about fashion. I rolled my eyes and smiled. Alice will be Alice.

The rest of the journey went by fast and before I knew it we were parked and heading through the reception up to the reception desk.

A woman in her mid 40's was wearing a formal uniform and typing away on the computer. She lifted her head up when she noticed us come in.

She smiled a kind smile, "Hello how can I help you?".

Edward smiled and answered, "We are here for the freestyle gymnastics".

"Oh right well the fee is $5 dollars each", she told us.

Me, Alice and Rosalie put our money forward, and the receptionist gave a confused look toward Edward, and probably by reading her mind Edward said he was only watching. The woman smiled and told us where to go.

Walking into the locker room we put our stuff away before Edward went to the watching area leaving us to go through to the gym. When we were ready we walked through the gym doors only to find that everyone was gathered around listening to a man I saw to be a coach as well as 4 others dressed like him.

They turned to us when they heard the doors open, and when they saw us they started to murmur among each other.

"Alright quiet!", the coach said, and they silenced immediately.

"Welcome ladies please come forward and tell us your names and say what sort of stage you are at with freestyle gymnastics", the coach said.

Walking forward Rosalie went first, "Hi I'm Rosalie and this is my first time", she said but I don't think the males were listening since they looked like they were nearly going to drool.

Alice then introduced her self and also announced that she to was new to this as well.

And finally me, I took a step forward and said, "Hi I'm Bella and this is not my first time".

The coach then asked, "How much experience have you had? Just to get an idea of what level you will be at", he asked.

I looked to him when I replied, "I have had 5 years of experience in freestyle gymnastics and 13 years experience in martial arts and gymnastics".

"Ok, well just be sure to be careful and come to us if you need any help", the coach said, as he eyed my knee supports.

I nodded my head, and the coach then allowed the group to go to where ever in the gym.

I walked over to a group of 4 girls that were stretching and started to join in with them.

"Hi I'm Hannah", one girl with brown eyes and black hair introduced.

I smiled, "Bella".

The group and me talked for a bit before going over to the beam and start doing push ups in a handstand while on the beam.

After a few more stretches on the beam we went over to the floor where a group of 4 boys were showing off, well I wouldn't call it showing off since the moves were lame and very simple to do.

"Oh that's Tom and his little group. They believe they are the best here", Hannah told me with a role of her eyes as we watched them show off to a few girls that were flirting with them.

"They're not the best, those moves are way to easy a beginner could that", I said as one of the boys did 4 aerials in a row.

"So our moves are crap are they?", Tom said, as he came over.

"Oh you've done it now", Hannah whispered to me.

"No not crap the moves are good but easy", I explained confidently when he had come over. The confident, witty Izzie was coming out now.

"Oh really and you could do better?", he asked sarcastically as he looked down to my knee supports.

"So just because I have these", I motioned to the supports, "-means I can't kick your ass and show you what this sport is really made of?", I crossed my arms and raised my eyebrow.

Tom and his little group behind him looked a little shocked that I had stood up to him.

Tom quickly recovered and mimicked my crossed arms and put on a cocky smile and said, "Prove it".

Oh he really shouldn't have done that.

I gave him a cocky smile of my own and said, "With pleasure", before walking into the middle of the floor.

I stood, got into position and did a standing full twist, but purposely did it wrong, the boys started to laugh from behind me. I saw Hannah and the girls look at me with concern but that turned into a smile when I winked and smirked at them.

I quickly did a kip up and started to do some of the most hardest, most amazing tricks in free running and tricking around the gym.

(Sorry can't be bothered to write all the moves so a video is on the website that I can show you, please watch it, it's amazing, but start it at around 0:36)

When I was done I panted as I walked over to a shocked Hannah and the group, who recovered quickly and started to praise me.

"Wow that was amazing! You really showed 'um!", Hannah told me.

I smiled and smirked when Tom and his group came over shocked and slightly annoyed.

"Ok what the hell was that?", he snarled.

I raised an eyebrow, "You told me to 'prove it' so I did".

"I could see that Bella", he spat out.

"Actually it's Izzie", I corrected and smirked even more.

I heard a few people gasp, but I focused on only Tom's reaction which was shock.

"Wait Izzie as in the worlds best free runner Izzie?", one of boys from Tom's group asked.

"The very one", I replied.

Hannah came from behind me with a picture in her hands and stood in front of me and studied the picture then studied me before doing it again.

She obviously found what she wanted because her eyes went wide and she dropped the picture.

I looked to the floor and saw it was a signed picture of me.

Tom looked also looked at it and saw the resemblance as well.

"Wow you really are her", he said.

"That I am".

He then looked at me with admiration, I gave a confused look and he smiled a…friendly smile? What?

"Well I am never one to say this but I'm sorry for misjudging you, you proved me wrong and you know what you were right our moves really are crap", he said.

I was now the one to look shocked, he saw my expression and laughed.

"Like I said you proved me wrong and for that I apologise".

I studied him for a few seconds and looked to the sitting area where Edward was. He was watching me and as if reading my mind he nodded.

Ok so he was telling the truth…I guess everyone does deserve a second chance.

I smiled at him and nodded.

He stuck his hand out and said, "Truce?".

I stared at his hand before taking it mine and shaking it, "Truce".

"Let me start over…Hi I'm Tom and will you please teach us some moves since our are shit?".

I laughed and replied, "Hi Tom I'm Izzie and sure why not".

And that's how the session went. And for a second or third time since my moms death I had fun.

Please review thanks!
