Wednesday came fast. I laid in my bed thinking that if I tried out for cheerleading, people would look at me as a piece of ass to look at and not a girl that could take care of herself. After two hours of fighting with myself I got out of my bed and walked into the hall.
"Sapphira!" Mandy exclaimed.
"Hey what's up?" I said feeling irritated.
"You wanna walk with me to try outs?" She asked.
"Sure." I said walking slowly with her.
"So any boys catch your eye yet?" She asked. I knew she was trying to be nice, but I was not that type of girl.
"Why should I like anyone? They are all the same anyway." I said pushing the doors open in front of me.
"I was just asking. I know a few guys have the hots for you." She said smiling turning toward the main building. I laughed.
"Yea who?" I asked not believing her.
"Well Casey the big blond football player. He told me to try to set you guys up. Uh well obviously Max, but he's a prefect so that can't happen. I also hear Trent Northwick and Davis White, but that was from Christy. You can't believe half of what she tells you." Mandy said as we passed the faculty parking lot. I looked over at the group of boys standing against the wall. I spotted Davis and quickly looked away feeling nervous.
"Hey girls." Trent said running up to us. Mandy grunted.
"Get away from us loser." She said walking around him.
"Come on we can play shirts and skins." He said after us. Mandy flipped him off and continued walking.
"Trent acts like he likes girls in front of his friends. But I swear I saw him kissing Kirby behind the scoreboard on the football field." She said sounding disgusted. I laughed.
"Really?" I asked amused by the information.
"Yea but I don't know for sure, it was kinda dark out and I was tired. Where does she think she's going?" She said watching a blond girl walk toward the stairs leading to the gym. "Beatrice! What are you doing?" She asked as we caught up to her.
"I'm going to cheerleading try outs actually." The girl said meekly.
"Oh really well we have enough girls. Sorry better luck next year." She said as we passed by her. I looked back at the girl who hung her head and turned around, and saw Trent and Davis follow us around the corner.
