Hey!! This is just a short lil one I had to write before the next
chapter. It's all about the tryouts... Enjoy!
All's Fair In High School Ch.11
Charity glanced at the hopeful-cheerleaders huddled in the
little group next to her. As if they even had a chance. Today was
the big tryout day, and she couldn't wait to see Kay Bennett royally
screw up her dance.
" Hey Mindy? Did you do it?" she whispered quietly to her
friend.
" Yeah. Let's just say Kay's music will be... off beat!"
Mindy said, laughing loudly.
" Mindy!" Charity hissed. " Chill out, will you?"
" Sorry, Char. I'm just psyched to see Little Miss
I-Think-I-Rule-the-World trip on her scrawny face." Mindy said,
giving a helpless shrug.
Charity smiled. It would be pretty entertaining.
Kay tossed her tryout music tape in the box with the others.
She had spent all last night trying to pick out a song, but today it
didn't seem right anymore. She called out to Theresa, who was also
trying out.
" Hey T! Wanna share music with me?" she asked the pretty
hispanic girl.
" Sure Kay." Theresa responded with a smile. It was really
nice of Theresa to do this. Kay didn't even know her that well.
" Kay, you can share with me." Simone said quietly,
magically appearing as if from nowhere, right next to Kay.
" Get a life Simone." Kay snapped, walking away from her
ex-best friend. She knew everything that had happened between
Simone, Ali and Charity and Kay wasn't even slightly close to
forgiving either of them yet.
Charity heard her, Mindy and Em get called by Coach Jenn
Charity was beyond excited. It was finally their turn. Her turn to
strut her hot stuff. But Mindy was staring at her.
" Mindy! What's your problem? Put in the music." she hissed
at Mindy.
" Uh, Char? You have the tape." Mindy said slowly.
" Oh God." Charity groaned. In all the excitement and
confusion of setting KAy up, she had somehow forgotten to bring her
own music.
Emily looked upset. She had no idea about Charity's plan to
set up Kay. " God, you guys are so irresponsible!" she exclaimed.
Emily grabbed a tape from the tryout box and popped it into the tape
player. " No one will care if we borrow their tape." she continued,
playing it.
The music started, but something wasn't right. The music was
awful, squeaky and.... strangely familiar.
Charity and Mindy stared at eachother. " It's Kay's tape!"
they exclaimed in unison.
And the judge just stared at the three of them with
amazement, as Charity and Mindy stared at eachother in humiliation
and Emily looked at them both with a confused look on her face.
Kay and Theresa started their counts for their dance.
" And 5, 6, 7, 8", Kay chanted.
They both did great, showing their strength with grace as
they flawlessly performed the dance.
Coach Jenn awarded Theresa with a smile, and gave Kay the
knowing, respectful look that Kay always got from her.
Kay smiled. It was nice to be on top again.
Coach Jenn's Notes
Kay- definantly in (probably captainship again), sharp arms, great
facials, awesome jumps and great spirit
Charity- didn't do so hot, but she's good- I've seen her flawless
skills at practice
Simone- don't like her attitude lately, but has great basing skills,
as well as good motions
Ali- good spirit, needs works on jumps and motions
Mindy- very good, as seen from practices, not so hot tryout, but
still...
Emily- This one is good; seems responsible, has nothing to do with
tape problem. Her facials and jumps are fantastic, motions a bit off
Kari- newie; but very good jumps and tumbling skills, motions are in
need of help
Theresa- great spirit and motions, ok jumps
Well, these girls are the better of the tryout-ee's. I guess this
will have to do for the new varsity football squad.
