Author's Note: Here is the second part of The Perfect Image. There wasn't much romance in the last part. I hope there'll be more in here. You didn't think that Yolei would make the squad, did you? Admit it! You thought that she wouldn't make it and would keep crying herself to sleep every night and- You probably don't want to hear me yacking so just go ahead and read. (smiles)

The Perfect Image Part 2
Yolei's eyes fluttered open. Golden sunlight streamed into her room, and shone on her face, warming it. She stretched and turned around.
Only then did she relise that she was not on her bed. She was sprawled across the floor.
"How the hell did I get here?" she asked no in particular. Deciding, that she must've fallen out of bed, she got up and walked into the washroom. She glanced at the clock and almost screamed. 8:35am!!!! She was going to be late!
She quickly brushed her teeth, combed her hair, pulled on a pair of blue denim pants and a black, second-skin (?) t-shirt with the word "Kaiserin" written in silver. She grabbed her bag. Halfway out of her room, she noticed that her vision was blurry. She had forgotten her contacts!
She quickly put them on and ran out of the house, not stopping to talk to her parents.
The bell rang five seconds after she entered the classroom. She slumped into her seat. Then, the teacher walked in and started the lesson.
"I can't wait," Kari said for the tenth time since the bell had rung. School was over and they were heading to cheerleading practise.
Yolei hadn't eaten anything all day and was getting dizzy again, but she was confident that she could make through practise.
They entered the gym. Ashley was standing infront of a bunch of girls. A woman with brown hair pulled back into a ponytail was beside her. She was wearing a pair of white trackpants and a black shirt.
Kari and Yolei joined the girls. Ashley said something to the woman and joined the group of girls who were whispering to eachother in excitment.
Yolei knew the woman. She was their English teacher, Ms. Anglais.
"Hey, girls!" Ms. Anglais started, "or should I say 'the most bright cheerleaders I've ever seen!'" A few girls giggled. Yolei snorted. "I bet she says that to every group of girls," she muttered under her breath.
"Now, I know that most of you girl, probably a bit more 75%, are just here to cheer and impress a guy you have a crush on, hm?" the english teacher asked. A few girls blushed and giggled, but Yolei simply smiled.
"Well, I guess, that's why most of you are here," Ms. Anglais declared, "but, believe me, girls, that cheerleading is not a tool for catching boys." She paused then added, "but we all do it anyways, so who cares?!" This time, everybody laughed.
"Even, I did it, so I'm not going to stop you," the teacher promised, "but, cheerleading is a fun activity. If for some reason, the boy you like got kicked off the team, that DOES NOT give you permission to leave the squad, okay?"
"Okay," the girl chorused. "Now, I am going to be your coach," Ms. Anglais said with a bright smile, "first lesson . . ."
"Alright, everybody," Ms. Anglais said, "you are all off to a great start. Don't be late for your next practise. Au revoir!" The girls said good bye and walked out.
Once, Yolei got home, she ran to fridge, pulled out an apple and ate it. She groaned. She wanted so much to go out and get a pizza, but nooo! She had to starve herself and-
Ring, ring, ring. Yolei's thoughts were interuppted by phone ringing. It was probably Kari.
Yolei picked up the phone and said, "hello?" "Hey, Yolei? It's me, Ken," the voice on the other side said. Yolei's heart stopped. "Um, uh, how are you?" she choked out. "Fine," Ken replyed, "listen. You wanna, you know, go to the movies this Friday?"
Yolei could've dropped the phone if she wasn't frozen stiff. "Go to the movies?" she asked. "Yes," he replied. "This Friday?" she asked. "Yes," came the answer. "With you?" she questioned. "If you're busy-" he started. "I'm not busy this Friday night," Yolei cut him off. "Great, you can call it a date," he stammered on the other end, "I'll pick you up at 6:00?" "Sure," she agreed. "Alright, see you tomorrow," he said, and hung up.
Yolei slowly put the phone down. Then, after a minute of trying to figure out if what had just happened was a dream or reallity, she screamed, "YES!!!!!"
Selena came into the kitchen. "What?!" she asked, "anything wrong?" "Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god!" Yolei cheered, "you won't believe what happened!"
Selena smiled. "Let me guess," she said, "you just got asked out by the guy of your dreams." Yolei frowned. "How'd you know?" she asked. Selena smiled, mischiviously. Yolei also smiled.
"So, Friday is the day after tomorrow," Selena pointed out, "what're you going to wear?" Yolei's smile faded. "Uh oh," she said. Selena chuckled. "Come on!" she said, "I'm very happy for you that I'm going to buy you the perfect dress."
They went the mall and entered a store. "Promise me that you will let me help you get ready!" Selena practically ordered. "Help get ready for what?" Kari walked up to them. "Hi, guys," she greeted. "Hey, Kari," Selena said, "Yolei is going to the movies with Ken on Friday."
"Really?!" Kari asked, "I'm helping whether you like it or not!" Yolei smiled. "Thanks, guys," she smiled, "I really appreciate it."
"No, prob!" Kari exclaimed, "we wanna help. This is your first date, so we have to do something." Yolei giggled.
Friday came faster than Yolei expected it to. It was 4:30. Selena, Kari and Yolei were in Yolei's room.
"How should I act?" Yolei asked. She was panicing a bit. "Be yourself," Kari told her, "don't act out anything." "What do you mean 'don't act out anything'?" Selena asked, "Yolei, Kari is part right. You should be yourself. Don't change your personality, but it wouldn't hurt to act, you know, shy or something. Guys like that."
"Who needs to act?" Yolei grumbled. "Did you say something?" Selena asked. "No," Yolei lied. "Okay, put your outfit on and we'll do your hair," Kari instructed.
Yolei took her clothes and went into the washroom. "How do you think she'll look?" Kari asked Selena. "Very good, I bet," Selena replied, "she'll look like an angel."
The door opened and Yolei walked out. "Very nice," Selena complimented, "sit down so we can do your hair." They did her hair and added a few finishing touches here and there.
The doorbell rang at 6:00 sharp. "Oh, my god! Oh, my god!" Yolei was really panicing now, "I think my hair messed up! I think I'm over done." "And I think you're over-reacting," Kari told her as Selena went to open the door.
"Hi, you must be Ken," they heard Selena say, "come in." "Okay, Yolei, calm down," Kari instructed, "take a deep breath and let it out slowly!" Yolei did as she was told and walked out of her room.
Selena was saying something to Ken and he was nodding. When he saw Yolei, he smiled.
She looked fantastic. She was wearing a tight, black skirt which came up to her knees and a red, silk, buttoned shirt with short sleeves. Her hair was let out and had a black hairband. She also had black stockings and black sandals.
The finishing touches were scarlet nail polish and bright red lipstick. Selena had thought that there was not enough red, so she had added a golden bracelet with a ruby. She was wearing her contact lenses.
Ken also looked handsome. He was wearing blue, denim pants and a white, full sleeved, buttoned shirt. He had a black, leather jacket.
"Hi, Yolei," Ken said, "you look nice." "Thank you," she said, blushing a little. "Come on," he said, "let's go."
He led her out to his car and opend the door for her. Yolei got in. Before, Ken could close the door, Selena shouted, "stay out as long as you want, kids!" She paused before adding, "it's not a school night!"
Yolei giggled as Ken smiled and closed the door. He also got in and pulled out of the driveway.
"What kind of movie do you want to watch?" Ken asked. "I don't know," Yolei said, "I guess we'll see once we get to the theatre."
"Oh, yeah," Ken said, "we're going to a theatre in Tamachi. They always have the lastest films." "Okay," Yolei agreed.
When, they were there, Ken parked the car and they got out. They looked at all the film which the theatre was playing. Yolei was really hoping for a romance, but all romance movies were sold out.
"Okay, we could always watch The Ghost's Revenge," Yolei stammered. "The title sounds stupid, but the previews were good, so . . . "
After a few minutes, they were in the dark, with a bag of popcorn waiting for the movie to start.
"What's this movie about?" Yolei asked. "It's about some dead guy wanting revenge on the guys who killed him," Ken explained. He turned to Yolei and grinned. "It's supposed to be pretty scary," he informed her, "and there's a full moon outside."
Yolei groaned. But, she was actually enjoying herself- before her head started to hurt. It must've been because she hadn't eaten anything but a banana all day.
She soon forgot about her head ache when the movie started. Ken was not right. The movie wasn't scary; it was terrifying! She was clutching Ken's arm with both of her hands because of the horror.
"Tell me when this part is over!" Yolei said to him and burried her face in his white shirt (he took off his coat) as the ghost got ready to strike a woman with a knife.
"Don't worry," Ken said, "it's just a film." "Yeah, a scary film," Yolei growled without lifting her face, "and that woman's voice is loud." Suddenly, the screaming stopped.
"What's happening?" Yolei whispered. "Intermission," Ken told her. Yolei slowly lifted her face and looked at him. "Honestly, girl," Ken said, shaking his head, "you get more scared than our next door neighbour's kitten."
Yolei thought that he was annoyed with her, but she relised she was wrong when he winked at her and smiled. Yolei blushed a bit.
When, the movie ended, they went to a restaurent near by.
Yolei wanted to order a huge meal, but she had to stick to her diet. It was a good thing she brought her purse and a bottle of pills along. She just ordered a salad.
Ken stared at her. "You're just going to have that?" he asked, "are you okay?" "Oh, I'm fine," Yolei lied, "I just don't feel like eating. That's all." When, she was halfway through the salad, she announced that she was full and excused herself to go to the ladies' room. Once inside, she popped a pill into her mouth.
When, they were done with dinner, Ken said it was really early and asked if she would like to take a walk before they head back and Yolei agreed.
"This place is so beautiful!" Yolei exclaimed. They were taking a walk in the park. The full moon cast an unearthly glow on all the flowers, and it was simply beautiful.
It was kind of cold and Yolei shivered. She was wearing short sleeves. She hugged herself and looked at the roses. Suddenly, she felt something kinda heavy on her shoulders.
Ken had put his coat around her shoulders. "You looked cold," he smiled. "Thanks," Yolei smiled back, "but, aren't you a bit chilly now?" Ken shook his head. "No," he said, "actually, I thought it was something was burning a few momments ago." Yolei giggled.
After a few more minutes of talking and laughing, they decided to get back to the car. Before Yolei got in, Ken said, "wanna see a magic trick?" "Sure," Yolei said, "why not?" Ken put his hand behind her hair and pulled out a bouquet of red roses.
"Hey, how'd you do that?" Yolei asked in amazement. "A true magician never reveals his secrets," Ken told her, "for you." He handed her the roses. "Thank you. That's a really cool trick," Yolei complimented.
Ken smiled and opened the door for her. She got in and he drove to her house. Once they were there, Yolei opened the door. "I really had a good time tonight," she said, "bye." "See ya," Ken said.
She picked up her purse and closed the door. But, Yolei didn't notice that the bottle of pills had fallen out and was now on the passengers seat.
