The Tryouts
I walked in and was surprised to see so many desperate girls, an automatic walk to popularity. The 3 main cheerleaders and they sat at the table watching the tryouts and grading. When it was my turn I didn't get too scared and I had prepared a routine. Since I was in gymnastics for practically my whole life I wasn't too worried. I did my routine and at the end I ended with a flip and a split and my arms in a V. The girls stared and did not move. Maybe amazed or surprised that "Little Liz Parker" could be so good.
Next day I just waited for the announcements but that would be at the end of the day. Now I was in 3rd period and Max was beside me once more. We didn't talk instead had fun exploding our small balloons for science. He was so cute, his eyes a dark black color and they looked lie they rolled back into his head.
"So I'll...uhh...see you tomorrow?" I asked and he didn't answer but smiled and walked away.
Max was different then any other guy I know. He's handsome, sweet, and he's one of the few guys that aren't stuck up. I just wonder what he's going to say if I become a cheerleader, if I do. Will he hate me or will he like me, I have no idea why I' changing for someone so much, but I like him a lot, and I don't want him to hate me.
I sat in my class at the end of the day; the announcer went on and on but failed to mention until bus call the cheerleaders for this year.
"And now, the cheerleaders for this year are...Lauren Jeffrey, Mia Barker, Emily Bronaugh, Rose Jordan, Jennifer Justice, ..." the list went on and ended with
"and Chasity Selders" I was amazed I didn't make it. "Oh and one more, I'm sorry, Liz Parker...all cheerleaders there will be a fitting rehearsal for uniforms and practice starts tomorrow"
He finished and excitement in me was high. I couldn't wait to see what Max would say, but now all I had to deal with was...What Maria Would Say!!! I though about that as a crowd of girls walked up to me. Along with them Isabel Evans, the most popular girl in school, she was new but had quickly made it to popularity. Instead of threatening me to get out of the way or to stuff me into he locker she put out her hand, smiled and said
"Welcome to the squad Parker, great job" I smiled and shook her hand, Isabel would be my friend I could tell but now, I had to get down to the restaurant.
