Short Story #2: Kai and Jayleene in high school

Kai Bilens rode through the school hallways on his skateboard, going way faster than he should've been. He didn't care right now; he was not being late for class today. Today was too important; he had a major History test and if he failed another class, his mom would murder him.

The teen looked down at the red watch on his left wrist and swore as he saw it was only two minutes before the late bell. Okay…He could do this, two minutes to get across campus…If he didn't stop, even to talk with his friends, then he could make it. Kai swung his right foot back several times to pick up speed and then stood on the black board with both feet to stay balanced.

As he went faster, he put out his two hands and pushed the school doors open. Once he was outside, he grinded his board on a railing and slid down a small flight of stairs.

He glanced at his watch…One more minute until the late bell…

Kai sped up and finally got into the next building. It was small with only six classrooms and a few lockers, but his class was right down the hall… "Almost there…" he mumbled to himself.

He turned the corner and saw his History teacher just about to close the door…Just then he heard his watch let out a small beep. NO!

"WAIT!" he yelled, but the late bell rang loudly and the classroom door was closed! He wanted to stop, but because of his speed, putting his foot down would've broken his leg. "Stop, stop, stop!" he repeated as his body got nearer to the door.

Inside the classroom, Jay Walker, Zane Julien, Cole Belmonte and Lloyd Garmadon all looked around for their missing friend. "Guys, he's late." Lloyd said, looking at his watch.

"Well, he's gonna' fail." Cole shrugged.

Suddenly everyone in the room was startled by a loud thud against the door. Kai Bilens' cheek smashed against the small window on the door as he slowly slid down onto the floor in pain. "Oh, Kai…" his sister, Nya shook her head as she saw her brother's accident.

"You're late, Mr. Bilens," Mr. Brett opened the door and the spiky haired teen fell onto the classroom floor, groaning. "That's a detention; I'll see you after school."

"C'mon, dude I can't fail…" Kai frowned, looking up.

"Then you should've came earlier, now get off of my classroom floor."

He stood and walked out of the classroom for the door to be closed behind him.

Kai sighed and looked around the hallway. He had an entire period to kill…He decided to head to the gym. Cheerleading try outs were supposed to be held right? It wouldn't hurt to see a few girls tossing themselves around in skirts…

Jayleene...

Jayleene Walker waited in the gym nervously for her name to be called. Why was she doing this? God, why? Well, mostly because she didn't want to be an outcast…But what if she failed?

"Jayleene Walker?" Demi Harrison called out. Her and her crew sat at a table with bored stares. As soon as Jayleene walked onto the court, all girls scoffed. "This'll be over quick," Demi joked, making her other two partners laugh.

Jayleene rolled her eyes and stood. She was in a blue shirt, blue jean shorts and white sneakers for the try out. While waiting for the music to start, she looked over and saw someone entering the gym.

A boy with dark brown spiked hair wearing a red hoodie, brown pants and red sneakers, Kai Bilens. Wasn't he supposed to be in class? She shrugged it off and then the music played. (A/N: Okay, if you used to watch Kim Possible the show, you know the movie "A Stitch in Time"? Well at the beginning of the movie, a song played "Work it Out" as Kim did her cheerleading routine).

"Uh-huh
Nothing to add, you follow
I'll tell you something, you don't know!"

The routine Jayleene was given by Demi immediately started with the music, she waved the blue pom-poms she brought herself and put on that fake smile the cheerleaders did.

"Take a look at me now
Got plenty going on, on my own
You have got to, you have got to, you have got to
Work it out!"

Jayleene did a few backflips and jumped onto the small trampoline that was left out by the girls. She jumped up and as she was in the air, she threw herself back into a back flip.

"Uh-huh
Disillusion yourself
You're never quite as thrilling to someone else
What you've got on your mind
We're getting without it just fine
You have got to, you have got to, you have got to
Work it out!"

The teenage girl landed on her two feet and raised both her arms up, smiling wildly. She did about four continuous front flips and ended with a split which she then got back up from.

"Uh-huh
Do I look like I've been taught
Turn you into something you're not
Up, down, side to side
Got better things to do with my time."

She then started the steps she was given, remembering them all. She spun on one foot with the other outstretched while waving her pom-poms over and over.

"You have got to, you have got to, you have got to
Work it out!"

"Okay, freestyle…" she mumbled to herself as the drum solo played. Jayleene danced in step as she spun occasionally. Once that was done, she went back to the routine.

"Uh-huh
Uh-huh!
You work it out
Don't come to me like you do
Going wrong, so what's new
Nothing to add, you follow
I'll tell you something, you don't know
You have got to
Work it out
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
You work it out."

Jayleene finished with a final smile while her hands were against her hips. Demi nearly broke the pencil she was holding and a small applause came from the other girls trying out. "You know there's more to cheerleading than just doing a few flips right?" Demi hissed.

That broke the applause.

"But, Demi she was g-" a hand covered Bridgette Fallow's mouth.

"What I'm saying is, you didn't make the team. Bye now," Demi put on an evil smile.

Jayleene sighed and walked off the court. She grabbed her bags and rushed out, looking down at her feet.

Kai hesitated, thinking. She was actually good so why didn't she make it. What was her name again? Jayleene Walker…Wait, that was Jay's sister…But he only met her once before.

He sighed; unable to shake the way he felt when he saw her crestfallen face. The boy got up and followed Jayleene. "Hey, wait up!" he caught up with her.

Jayleene looked up and stopped. "Uh…Kai?" she raised a brow.

"Hey…" he said. "Sorry you didn't make it; uh…You were good…"

She nodded and continued to walk, but he followed her. "So…" he trailed off.

"Okay, stop." Jayleene turned around and put her hand in front of his face.

"Why? I was just being nice."

"No, stop, you can't follow me into the girl's room." She laughed, pointing to the girl bathroom door behind her. "I'll see you later, Kai." She walked into the room, leaving him alone in the hallway.

Kai smiled. "Yeah…Later…" he waved long after she had gone.
