Paige impatiently began to pace back and forth across the gym as the rest of the group filed through the door with eager looks upon there faces.
"Where were you guys? Practice was supposed to start an hour an half ago. I understand Allison because she had a doctor's appointment and she told me she would be late. But you guys did not and we need to practice. So know that everyone is her we will run through it. Cheer, dance, stunt okay know we have 15 minutes for the whole thing. Let's get started." Paige stated impatiently.
They ran through there performance a few times.
"Now be here at 1 tomorrow to get changed and stuff. We perform at 2:30. Now you can go! See you guys tomorrow." Paige fumbled through her purse for her cell to call her mom to pick her up. Then she made her way to the front of the school were her mom always picked her up.
"How was practice Paige?"
"It was okay I guess." she answered.
She wanted so desperately to tell her mom what had happened but was afraid of what she may think. Her mom interrupted her thoughts to tell Paige that she was going to run some errands and she would be home at dinner.
Paige walked to the door and pulled her keys from her bag and trudged inside to her room where she sat down on her bed. She glanced over at her closet doors were her cheer uniform and bag were hanging and let out a sigh.
She quickly changed and ran back downstairs to start dinner. Then she sat down on the couch and picked up a people from off the coffee table. The phone rang and she ran to go answer it. She glanced at the caller id and saw that it was Spinner.
"Hey" she said "What's up?"
"Nothing at all. Just thought I'd call to say hi." Spinner said. "Are you coming to the game tomorrow?"
"Yeah I kind of have to don't I?" she answered.
"I guess so."
"Well Spinner I got to go cook dinner so I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"Bye!" She hung up the receiver and quickly ran back to the kitchen were the pasta she had on the stove was boiling over.
"Great! Now I have to clean that up!" Paige sighed and grabbed a rag from the drawer and bent down to clean the water from off the floor. Just as she finished cleaning the water off the floor the phone rang and her brother walked through the door. She stood up brushed her pant legs off and glanced at the caller id. She saw her mother's number and picked up the receiver.
"Hey sweetie! I'm on my way home so finish supper and set the table."
"Okay, mom love you." She hung up the receiver again and finished dinner and sat the table.
It was a quiet and calm dinner. No one seemed that keen on talking. Paige went upstairs to take a shower after she ate then she went to bed. She woke up early the next morning to the bright sun shining through her window. She dreaded the game and seeing Dean again. She bit her lip as she trudged downstairs to eat. It looked as if she was the only one up. She ate a bagel then went back upstairs to get ready. She was going to the game early to run through and set everything up. She packed her bag with her poms and uniform and then went to wake her mom up.
When she entered the gym it was stifling and smelled of moldy gym socks.
"Yuck! It smells in here." She complained to herself when she heard a familiar voice from behind her.
"Hey spirit." She turned around to see Dean standing there. He approached her and threw her down to the ground where he pinned her under his body.
"Please let me go leave me alone." She cried. Just then Paige jolted upright in bed. She was sweating profusely as she glanced at her alarm clock. It was just a dream a horrible dream. She was shaking as she lay back down. She rolled over on her side and vomited over the edge off the bed side. She began to cry as the events of that night came to pass. I have to tell someone anyone she thought to herself. She fell back into another restless sleep. She hadn't got much sleep in since that night and didn't expect to get any tonight, so she rolled back over on her back and stared at the ceiling until the sun peeped through her curtains. She breathed a sigh of relief as she got up got ready and got her mom up to take her to the school. She walked into the gym with that same smell of moldy gym socks and sweat as in her dream.
She cringed as she walked into the locker room to change and when she came back out the other cheerleaders were beginning to arrive along with JT there mascot.
"Hey JT. How's it going?" Paige asked Questiongly.
"It's fine! How are you doing?"
"I'm not bad nervous but not bad." But in reality she was cringing and she was terrified to see him again. A tear formed at the corner of her eye and she quickly wiped it away.
"Hey JT do you mind if I talk to you really quick? Somewhere private."
"Yeah Sure!"
okay well that's all for now ill update soon!!!! Hope u enjoy
