I and the rest of the cheerleaders were at tryouts for this year. Anyone who was a cheerleader last year, was automatically one this year. We went through boring old tryouts with girls performing routines, or tricks, or dances of some sort. So far we already got the 4 we need. We were considering, and didn't really need any more people to try out, but whatever.
"Nina Martin?" asked coach Robinson.
"I'm Nina Martin!" ressponded the witch with a grin and a wave.
"American? We haven't had an American cheerleader. Are you good?"
"I'll let you judge that..." then she did her routine. A back handspring, with a turn when she landed on her hands and then she fell into a split for her landing. I'll admit she's good.
"My word! How are you in air?" asked coach.
"Uh, pretty good."
"Let's see it. Joy! Amber! Allison!" I groaned. Amber gave me a look. I just smiled back. Allison went behind Nina as a backspot, Amber got on her right, and me on her left.
"5, 6, 7, 8!" shouted coach. We lifted her in the air. "1, 2, 3, 4,!" We threw her in the air. "5, 6, 7, ,8!" She did a series of flips and twirls. She came back down and we caught her. But she almost fell because I didn't catch her left side. I laughed. She grimaced at me.
"You're in! How would you like head position?" aske coach. I was offended.
"WHAT! I"M HEAD!" I shouted.
"Not anymore. Nina, you're our head flyer!" coach announced. I stood there dumbstruck, mouth agape. Nina grinned, and walked back toward the house.
Fabian's POV
I saw Nina walking toward the house, and decided to catch up with her. When I did I spoke to her.
"Hey! How'd tryouts go?" I asked
"Awesome! Coach Robinson already positioned me as head flyer!" she grew excited.
"That's cool. How are you liking the scholl so far?"
"It's amazing, in America, we don't have boarding schools like this." so on and on we talked about the school, and what not and I felt an instant connection to Nina herself.
Mick's POV
I heard Nina and Fabian come into the house laughing. I looked at them. They would be really cute together, anyone could see that, but they've only known each other a little while. So it technically wouldn't be right for them to ust start dating right now. So they can wait. I heard Eminem's Won't Back Down blare, and saw Nina answer her phone.
"What?" she snapped into the phone before walking out the room. I looked at Fabian. It was really quiet.
"Soo, mate do you like her?" I asked Fabian.
"Sorta why?" he responded.
"Just wondering." he gave me a look and opened his mouth to say something when we heard shouting.
"I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT OR NEED, DRAKE! THEN NEXT THING YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR IS THE DIAL TONE, SO DON'T CALL BACK!" I assumed she hung up because the next thing I heard was her stomping down the stairs. I just noticed Jeorme come in with Patricia, Mara, and Alfie.
"HERE JEROME!" Nina shouted. She passed Jerome her cell phone. "IF THE CHEATER CALLS BACK, THREATEN HIM!" she walkd out the room. We heard he walk up the stairs, and slammed her bedrom door. I winced as I heard the door slam.
"Damn." I commented.
"I know, Drake really shouldn't call her, I'm about to call back. Guys, I want you to threaten him with me, so speaker phone, o.k.?" erome asked. We nodded. We all got in cirlce in the common room, Me and Mick sitting on the couch,and Alfie and Jerome on the couch across from us. The phone was on the coffee table.
"Heeeyyyy, Nina. Change your mind?" answered a cocky voice from the other end.
"No, you sick fuck. Ni-" started Jerome.
"Wait, who's this?"
"*Ahem* Remember me now?" Jerome asked in a perfect American accent.
"JEROME! Yo bro, how's life!"
"Don't fuck with me, Drake. Or Nina for that matter, the next time you even call her I will take my ass over to America and kick yours."
"Jerome, I thought we were cool. Whatever I guess not. And besides, I'm not afraid of you!"
"Maybe not, but there are 3 other crazy ass boys, ready to kick your ass if you hurt Nina!"
"Oh, she's always been such a dirty little whore..."
"THAT'S IT! SHE WAS NEVER A SLUT OR ANYTHING! YOU LEAVE HER ALONE AND STOP BULL SHITTIN' WITH ME! I'M TIRED OF YOUR CRAP!" Jerome was now screaming into the phone which was now in his hands. Suddenly Mick took the phone.
"Look dude, there's no need to insult the man's sister, and the 3 of us are really close friends with Jerome, so watch your back." He hung up the phone. "Mate, I'm sorry he said shit bout Nina, but calm down."
"WE'RE BACK BITCHES!" I heard from the doorway. I saw Amber and Joy were back from the tryouts, and Amber left upstairs. Alfie grabbed her arm and shook his head no. She gave him a skeptical look and sat on the couch. Just then Trudy called for dinner, and we ate in silence wondering where Nina was.
