CHEER-SPIRATION

"Z, what am I going to do?" Addison whined to Zed as they walked into his house after baseball try-outs. "This is a complete cheer-tastrophe!"

"Cheer-tastrophe?" he smiled as they both knelt down to pet the dogs that ran to greet them.

"Don't make fun of the cheer-lingo."

Zed laughed as he stood back up. "I wouldn't dream of it! Should I worry about my sister picking up this strange language while she's at practice? Do I need to call Pops and warn him?"

"Ha. Ha," Addison playfully smacked him on the arm as they started up the stairs. "But seriously...What am I going to do?"

"You know what I think?" Zed said tickling her sides lightly.

Addison giggled and wiggled out of his grasp. "Fine, I'll bite...What do you think?"

"Ooh! Promise?"

She shook her head and smiled, playfully biting his shoulder.

"I think you need a distraction. Something that will take your mind off of cheering for a while."

"I don't think that's even possible."

He leaned down and whispered in her ear. "Five says I can?"

Addison smiled and bit her lip. "Somebody is awfully confident."

His lips curved up in a wicked smile. He reached out and grabbed her by the shoulders, dragging her into his room and slamming the door closed. "What's wrong with being confident?" Zed reached out and turned his stereo on, turning the volume up high. In a move so fast she had no idea how it had happened, he had her shoved back against the door and half-drunk with his kisses.

His mouth was ravenous. He kissed her fiercely, sucking and biting at her tongue and lips, frantically trying to cover every inch of her skin at the same time.

When Addison realized that he was pulling his lips away, she moaned in protest, until she felt him kissing his way down her bare chest. Somewhere in the middle of all the kissing her crop top and sports bra had been removed, leaving her topless before him.

His long, slender fingers gripped her breasts, massaging them roughly before his kisses took their place. She threw her head back against the door and almost cried from the pleasure of his mouth. She shoved her hands into his thick green hair, grabbing large handfuls and squeezing, feeling him groan against one of her nipples. His tongue flicked it repeatedly, nipping at it with his teeth before moving even lower.

He dropped to his knees before her, pulling her leggings and panties down in one swift motion, making her step out of them as he stared at her, hypnotized. He smiled again, licking his lips, before he reached out and slid his hands between her legs, bending his arms back up around her hips until she was forced to slide forward and sit on his shoulders. She was left balancing there precariously, her back leaning against the door and her hands grabbing onto his hair for leverage.

He buried his face between her legs and inhaled sharply, snarling loudly as he opened his mouth against her. She felt his tongue sweep across her wet sex in broad strokes, and she wasn't able to keep from crying out loud anymore.

"Oh my God!"

Her exclamation only drove him on, making him lick her harder. She could feel every flick, every swirl of his perfect tongue. By the time he latched onto her swollen clit and began sucking, she was rounding the corner to insanity.

All the while, the song blared loudly in the background.

Addison began screaming as her orgasm ripped through her like a lightning bolt. She gripped his hair so hard that she was surprised it didn't come out in clumps in her hands, and as she rode out her release she began pulling him into her, grinding herself against his eager mouth.

When she finally stopped shuddering against his lips, Zed let her down gently until he could free his shoulders, and then he was picking her right back up again until her legs were wrapped around his waist. He carried her over and placed her in the center of his small bed. He knelt on the edge as Addison grabbed him by the back of the neck and pulled him down to her. Then she kissed him, passionately, tasting herself on his lips and moaning at their combined flavors.

He reached over to the nightstand and grabbed a condom out of the drawer, quickly opening it and rolling it down his length. He sat down on the bed and lifted her around the waist, setting her down on his lap. Her wet folds were right above him then, sliding along the underside of his hardness, which was trapped between their two bodies. "Oh God," he groaned. "You're so wet."

"That's entirely your fault," she giggled against his neck as she left a trail of kisses. He moved his hand between them and positioned himself at her dripping entrance.

"I need to be inside you right now," he growled low in her ear.

Addison flexed her hips and sat up, sinking down on him in one thrust. She arched her back and cried out, amazed by how full she felt.

"I love you," he panted, "so much." He thrust up into her more forcefully, loving the way her body pulled and gripped him from the inside.

"Yes!" she gasped, unsure of how long she would be able to keep her sanity. He held onto her hips tightly, pulling her down on him as he pushed up. After a few more thrusts Addison fell forward, bracing herself by her hands on the mattress between his legs.

"Don't tell me you're done already," he growled behind her, his thrusts never stopping. "I need to feel you come on me again, as many times as you can before I can't hold it back anymore." She moaned and started pushing back into him harder. "Yes! You feel so good!"

Addison felt Zed's hand sliding back away from her hip, toward where they were connected. She could feel his fingers slipping around between them, rubbing her clit a few times and pulling back again. Her entire body clamped down on him, gripping him so tightly he had to bite back a scream of his own.

When her shaking finally stopped he pushed her forward a bit until he could pull out, grabbing her quickly and pulling her down to the mattress. "Lie back...I'm so close...I need to see you when I come."

He flipped her over and crawled on top of her, grabbing her legs and wrapping them high around his waist. He quickly guided himself back to her entrance, sinking back inside her slowly. Her body was tired, but she welcomed him eagerly, feeling like he belonged deep inside her.

Zed got up on his knees, arching over her body to kiss her panting mouth. When he pulled away he whispered against her lips. "You are so beautiful." He kissed her again. "I want you to keep your eyes open. Look at me, Gorgeous."

He slid his hands down her arms and grabbed her by the wrists, bringing them up and pinning them to the mattress beside her head. She opened her hands in invitation, and Zed wrapped his fingers around hers, holding her hands tightly while he continued to thrust.

She watched him closely, his handsome face so full of need that she felt choked up with emotion. Tears began to fall from her eyes.

"Don't cry," he gasped against her mouth between frantic kisses. "Please don't cry..." She closed her eyes and kissed him back, moaning into his mouth.

"Open your eyes...please...I need to see you."

As soon as their eyes met he started thrusting harder, kissing her again and again.

"I love you so much," she panted against his lips. "Always." She started moving faster with him, meeting him thrust for thrust. Their eyes remained locked on each other, the only interruptions were his possessive kisses that she eagerly returned. "Say it," she whimpered, "I need to hear you say your mine. Always."

"Always, Addie. I'm all yours," he growled.

Her body began to shake around him as she came again, screaming with the power of his forceful thrusts. "I love you!"

Zed cried out with a loud snarl before his lips came crashing down on hers roughly and his entire body tensed up as he found his release.

As they laid there catching their breath, Addison let out a soft giggle.

"Penny for your thoughts, Gorgeous?"

Addison smiled and kissed him softly. "I think I owe you five-hundred pennies. You mister are quite good at distractions."

"I do try," he smiled as he kissed her forehead. "I do try."

Addison sighed and looked up into his eyes. "But seriously, all amazing distractions aside, what am I going to do about this routine?"

"Alright, we're going to watch the routine from today and figure this out," Zed said as he sat up and grabbed his shorts off the floor. "Where's my phone?" he asked as he dug in the pockets.

"Hang on a sec, I'll call it." Addison walked across the room and grabbed her phone. She sat back down on the bed and pressed the button, waiting for it to ring.

"Oh, I think that I've found myself a cheerleader. She is always right there when I need her. Oh, I think that I've found myself a cheerleader. She is always right there when I need her. She wal…."

Zed reached under the bed and pulled it out. "Found it!"

"Was that your ringtone?"

"Yeah. Well, I mean it's your ringtone on my phone," Zed said as he sat back on the bed and kissed her cheek loudly.

Addison giggled and snuggled into his chest. "How did I not know that?"

"I don't know. It's been your ringtone since I got this phone."

"That is so cute!"

Zed smiled and kissed the top of her head. "Well, you're pretty cute yourself. Now...let's see if we can fix your 'cheer-tastrophe'," he said as he pulled up the routine on his phone.

As they laid together watching the routine, Addison reached up and paused the video.

"So...God is a woman?"

Zed laughed and kissed the top of her head. "You already know that."

"And Charlie has a thing for Kasie?"

"It would appear so."

Addison giggled and placed a soft kiss on her name written on his chest. "I think they would be adorable together. I'll have to talk to her," she said pressing play again. When the video ended Addison took the phone out of Zed's hand and tossed it to the end of the bed. "Ugh."

Zed sat them up and pulled on her shoulders, forcing her to look at him. "Addie...I love you, Gorgeous, and I know you know WAY more about cheering than I do. But I'm going to be honest with you. This routine is fantastic. I don't get what's wrong with it."

"It's too expected! It's too perfect! It's too...It's too...SEABROOK!" she rushed out as a tear fell from her eye.

"But it's the Seabrook High cheer squad...isn't that kind of the point? You're putting too much pressure on yourself."

"NO! We're more than just the pretty pink cheerleaders from Seabrook now! We're not all Seabrook perfect! We're Seabrook AND Zombietown. I mean, look at me!" she said holding up the ends of her hair. "I need this routine to reflect what we are now! Not what we used to be."

Zed looked at her with a look of pure awe. "You...are perfect," he whispered, wiping the tears from her cheek.

"And you, are biased," she giggled kissing him. "What am I going to do, Z?"

Just then Milo started to scratch at the door.

"Let Milo in?" Zed teased.

Addison playfully smacked him on the arm as she got up and grabbed his t-shirt off the floor and put it on before walking to the door and letting their puppy into the room. As she opened the door she started to hum. She knelt down and picked Milo up, petting him behind his ears. "I can't get that song out of my head. What was it?"

"I don't remember. It was a mix Eliza made"

"Eliza made that?"

"Yeah, she's been producing some amazing stuff lately."

Addison sat on the edge of the bed petting the small puppy humming some more as Zed started to sing along. Suddenly she stopped. "OH MY GOD! THAT'S IT!"

"What?"

"This afternoon...The music...You...Eliza…Do you think she would make a mix for me?"

"That was a lot of random words, but I'm guessing you have a plan. As far as Eliza making a mix? You'd have to ask her, but I'm sure she could."

Addison kissed him loudly before placing Milo down and running around the room gathering her clothes.

"Where are you going?"

"Across the street to Eliza's! You gave me the best Cheer-spiration. I love you so much!"

"Cheer-spiration? I swear you cheerleaders butcher the English language. But, I love you too."

Addison laughed as she threw Zed his boxers. "Are you just going to lay there or are you coming with me?"


A few minutes later Zed, Addison, and Milo walked across the street to Eliza's.

"Hi, Aunt Jozie!" Zed said as he walked into the house without knocking. "Is E upstairs?" he asked already starting to climb them.

Jozie shook her head and smiled. "She sure is. Good to see you two!" she called after them.

"Yo! E!" Zed called out as he opened her bedroom door. He and Addison both froze when they walked in and saw Eliza painting her toenails. "Is that...pink?"

"You two do know, that music doesn't help. You're hella loud."

"I apologize for nothing," Zed smiled, "and don't change the subject."

Addison smacked him in the arm. "Sorry, about that. We'll keep that in mind."

"So...what can I do for you two...or three?" she smiled when she spied Milo in Addison's arms.

Addison handed Milo to Zed and walked across the room, sitting down next to Eliza. "I need your help. The very fate of the Mighty Shrimp Cheer-Squad depends on your answer."

Eliza laughed at Addison's serious expression. "A bit dramatic today?"

"Sorry, a bit much?"

"Yeah..."

Addison smiled. "Would you be able to mix a few songs together for me so that I can put together the most cheer-tastic routine that the National High School Cheer-Championships has ever seen?"

"Cheer-tastic?"

Zed laughed. "She used 'Cheer-tastrophe,' 'Cheer-lingo,' and 'Cheer-spiration,' earlier."

"And I thought Zombie-tongue was complex...But to answer your question, Yes. I can. What songs did you have in mind?"

"God is a woman, Confident, Cheerleader, and then that song that was playing while we were….yeah it's on the mix you gave Zed."

"You need to be a little more specific. There were quite a few songs."

Addison began to hum out the beat while Zed sang the words.

"Wild one."

"That's it!"

"That's a really random set of songs...but I think I can do something with it."

"Really?!"

"Yes, now I just need Zed to get his butt off my desk so I can get started."

"Yay! You're the best, E!" Addison exclaimed as she tackled her with a hug.


An hour and a half later Bucky walked in to find his girlfriend and cousin hunched over Eliza's computer wearing headphones, and Zed sitting in a chair in the corner with Milo in his lap.

"What's going on up here?"

"Addie got 'cheer-spiration' and Eliza's helping with the new music for the new routine. They've been at it over an hour."

"Shish Boom Bah! Thank you Cheer Gods!" Bucky laughed throwing his hands in the air. He walked over and threw an arm over Addie's shoulder, pulling her into a hug as he leaned over and kissed Eliza.

Eliza and Addison took off their headphones.

"Hey, Baby. How much longer you think?"

Eliza looked back down at her monitor and shrugged. "At least another hour?"

Zed's stomach growled from across the room. "I'm starving!"

Bucky laughed. "Why don't we go grab some food for everyone."

"That'd be great!" Addison smiled. "Pizza?"

"Lillian's it is!" Zed said hopping up from the chair with Milo under his arm.

"But leave our fur-baby!"

Zed laughed and walked over to her, placing a loud sloppy kiss on her cheek. "You got it, Gorgeous," he said handing her the puppy. "Keep working. We'll be back soon."


Two hours, and two extra large pizzas later, Eliza and Addison high-fived as they removed their headphones.

"This is going to work! I feel it in my bones!" Addison said excitedly as she hugged Eliza. "Thank you so much!"

"You're welcome. All I ask is that when someone asks where you got the awesome music from, you namedrop."

"Definitely!"

"So…" Zed said, looking up from the card game he and Bucky had been playing for some time. "Do we get to hear what you two have been working on?"

Addison smiled and grabbed her phone out of her pocket. "Bree? I need you to meet me at the gym immediately!….Yes!...I'll see you soon!" she hung up and looked towards Zed and Bucky. "Even better, you get to see it! Let's go!"

A few minutes later Addison stood in the middle of the Seabrook High gym with Bree, Bonzo, Eliza, Bucky, Zed, and Milo, all eagerly waiting for Addison to show them what she had come up with.

"Okay, so it starts with the lights off. Four spotlights on the four Senior female cheerleaders. Me….Bree…Zara…and Katie," Addison described as she walked through their positions. "The music starts..." she motioned for Eliza to press play. As the intro began, Addison started the routine she had been picturing in her head.

"Now, as the music changes, the lights go fully up and the entire squad is on the mat," she quickly launched into a hybrid of doing and describing the various stunts and formations that would be occurring throughout the routine. As she struck the final pose and the music ended, she took a deep breath and looked around at her friends. "So….What do you guys think?"

Bucky was the first one to respond with a slow clap. As the others picked it up, he ran over to his cousin and hugged her as tight as he could, swinging her around. "Addison, that was...I am so proud of you!" he set her down and held her by the shoulders. "That is by far the best routine I have ever seen! And it wasn't even the whole squad! If you can pull this off Nationals isn't going to know what hit them this year!"

"Really?!"

"Really," he whispered, wiping a tear from his eye.

Addison took a deep breath. "Okay, Bree...call the squad. We're starting tonight!"
