Chapter 4

I woke up the next morning dreading science; I didn't want to have to face Bumper after what had happened last night. I went and took a shower and changed into my blue skinny jeans with a white tank top and plaid over top.

When I walked into science Bumper was just sitting there on his phone. He didn't look sad or mad so maybe he was okay. I walked over to my desk and said hi, but he didn't answer. I tried again but this time I knew that he ignored me, Oh well I thought to myself.

After science I walked to math class but for some reason I couldn't get Bumper out of my head, but I don't even like him or anything I tried to tell myself but he kept popping into my head. I was in math class when the fire bell went off, everyone was running around like two year olds but I just couldn't get this Bumper thing out of my head.

I told myself that I was going to find a boy to like and crush on to make me forget about Bumper but it didn't work.

Next Day

I woke up early again and went to take a shower; I walked in and heard one shower. I remembered that Bumper showered in the morning so I snuck up to the shower and sure enough Bumper's stuff was outside the door. I grabbed a scrap piece of paper and wrote down "I'm sorry" on it and put it on his clothes, Then I went to take my own shower and for some reason I didn't sing at all.

After my shower I got dressed and Bumper was gone but the note I left him was crumpled and on the floor, I instantly remembered who I was. I was Brooke Stratton, I needed no one and didn't care what people thought of me so I picked up the note and threw it out. He wanted to play this game; well two people can play this game I thought.

After school that day I had a Bella's practice, we talked about competition songs but we couldn't think of anything so we just sang and did choreography. Aubrey made us do back hand springs which were hard but fun, and then Chloe taught us new dance moves.

After practice I didn't even care about Bumper, so Beca and I went back to our dorm, watched some T.V. and went to bed since the regional's were this weekend and we needed sleep.

Regionals

I woke up really early with Beca and we rushed to the bus, everyone was there except Amy, she was always late so no one was surprised when she showed up 20 minutes late." Sorry guys, takes a while to look this good" Amy said as she got in the drivers seat and we drove off.

When we got to the college that the regionals were being held at we all jumped off the bus and ran do our dressing room because we were like 30 minutes late because of Amy and traffic.

"WE ARE HERE" Aubrey yelled as she stopped by a guy that was organizing everyone backstage. We quickly got to our dressing room and changed into our outfit which where these funky purple, blue and black dresses.

Not half an hour later we were walking on stage to perform our song which we decided would be Heart Attack by Demi Lovato.

We walked on stage and started our song

Puttin' my defences up
'Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack

Never put my love out on the line
Never said yes to the right guy
Never had trouble getting what I want
But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough
When I don't care
I can play 'em like a Ken doll
Won't wash my hair
Then make 'em bounce like a basketball

But you make me wanna act like a girl
Paint my nails and wear high heels
Yea you, make me so nervous
That I just can't hold your hand

You make me glow, but I cover up
Won't let it show, so I'm
Puttin' my defences up
Cause I don't wanna fall in love
If I ever did that
I think I'd have a heart attack (x3)

Never break a sweat for the other guys
When you come around, I get paralyzed
And everytime I try to be myself
It comes out wrong like a cry for help
It's just not fair
Pain's more trouble than it all is worth
I gasp for air
It feels so good, but you know it hurts!

We sounded AMAZING; I would like to see the trebles beat that!
