Hey guys! Sorry that it has been FOREVER since I have updated this story. I have become obsessed with reading the other stories written on this site since they are so great! Please keep on reviewing! I will really try to keep updating on a steady pace.
"Kick some ass today, Emily Kmetko, I know you are amazing."
The Rock team walked into the National Stadium, nervous and excited for their first day of events. Their nervousness was soon forced to go away when paparazzi bombarded the four girls with questions.
One paparazzi guy shouted out to Emily:
"Hey Emily, how does it feel to know that everyone's expecting you to come in last place?"
Hearing his question, Emily turned to him, with a look ready to kill.
Seeing this, Sasha quickly stepped over towards them:
"Emily Kmetko is going to rock at Nationals, be expecting her to place on the National team. Emily, I need to speak with you."
Emily followed him to the locker room area and allowed herself to be pulled into a corner by the locker room.
"Em, remember, don't let anyone, especially the paparazzi get to you, you need to focus."
"I know, I know. He just set me off."
"People are going to criticize you this week and say mean things. They don't know you, fortunately I do. You deserve to place; you deserve so many things in this world Kmetko."
"Thanks Sasha. You'll always be there right?"
"You know it. I have some strong feelings for you. I'll never leave you."
"You are amazing, in case you don't already know… I definitely return those feelings."
Hearing this, Sasha quickly looked around and pecked her on the cheek.
Unfortunately for them, Kelly Parker had been standing on the other side of the locker room door. She had heard everything, knew all about their feelings for one another; the only question she had to ask herself was when she should ruin their careers.
Knowing that she truly needed to focus, Kelly decided to wait until right after Nationals. Besides, she thought, Emily Kmetko will never place.
