Ch. 4
After history came lunch.
Yep, it's been awhile since I had friends. It's like a whole new feeling. Oh, I hope this doesn't fall, she thought trying to get her books as quickly as possible without making them wait.
Gina and her friends waited for Haley to finish getting her stuff from her locker and started in depth introductions. Grace went first, then Naomi, and so on. By the time they were done, Haley felt like she had known them for a long time. They were so accepting of her.
"So Haley, why'd you come to Tree Hill?" asked Naomi, wondering why Haley would abandon a big city to come and live in an almost isolated city like Tree Hill. "Well, I was having trouble." started Haley and she told them her whole story, trusting them even though she had known them for a total of forty minutes.
When she finished, she saw that every one of them was looking at her with sympathy, but no pity. She hated when people gave her pity, but she saw none in her new friends.
Each one of her friends gave her a hug and Grace even cried a little for Haley. Haley gave a small smile, greatly moved at how much they seemed to care for her.
"Well, moving on to happier topics. How is life here in Tree Hill? So far I haven't seen anything great happening." Haley said trying to lighten up the mood.
"Well, they're having cheerleading tryouts and the guys are trying out for basketball. We're all on the team for cheerleading and Sheri here is the co-captain along with Peyton." Replied Gretchen. "You should try out."
"yea. You should." Urged everyone else. They all liked Haley and now they liked her even more since she was strong and caring.
"Well, I don't know. I'm not much of a cheer-er. I'll think about it and get back to you guys on that one." Replied Haley, smiling.
The group had been walking around and finally picked a small patch of grass to sit on, forming a little circle. They took out their lunch and shared with each other. Telling jokes and laughing, the girls finished their food. As they were getting up, they heard a "AHEM" behind them and turned around.
Behind them was a group of both guys and girls, who apparently were jocks and cheerleaders.
One of the girls, a small brunette with a dimple, smiled at them cheekily and said, "Hope you practiced over summer since you're going to get one hell of a competition for the captain's spot, Sheri."
"Who's going against her? You?" retorted Gina. "No, but Peyton is" glancing at the blonde next to her, she went on "she'll be captain this year and the next and then again when we're seniors."
"Haha. What a joke. Sheri's better than all of us combined. Stop dreaming, Brooke." Replied Gretchen, rolling her eyes. "Well we'll see about that." Then spotting Haley, Brooke asked, "Aren't you in my English class? You're the girl who sat in Nathan's seat without his permission, aren't ya? If you're trying out for cheerleading, well good luck. You'll need it." Haley, fuming, retorted, "Whatever. I'll probably beat your @$$ and leave you crying on the floor."
Everyone around her stared a little shocked, and Haley herself was shocked as well. Where had all this confidence come from? Recovering from her surprise, Peyton asked, "you don't know who we are do you?"
"Bimbos? Dumb jocks? Which one?" bit back Haley. "Just because you're new doesn't mean that we'll lay some slack. Better watch your back. Your friends may not always be there helping you." Warned Peyton. Then motioning for her crew to follow her, she set off for the cafeteria.
"Don't worry about her Haley. She won't do anything to you. We'll help you." Smiling, Haley looked at them and said, "Yea. Thanks. I hope you make it though Sheri." Then getting their books and backpacks, walked to their next classes. "Meet you in the front Haley." Yelled Sheri. "Bring your cd's Gina." Yelled Gretchen. Then they all parted ways.
In her last class, French, Haley thought about being in cheerleading. If I'm in the cheer squad then I'll have more opportunities to be with my new friends. Hmmm.. Yea, I'll join, but I don't even know how to cheer, let alone do the jumps. Guess I'll ask them to help me. Then Haley finished her French work and packed her bag; ready to leave once the bell rang.
