A/N Here is Air Leo. Shout out time!
AddaBlack94: Thanks. And yeah I honestly don't like the beach so I made Cassie not like the beach and she stayed with them. And it's cool; I'm totally light headed right now and am trying the best I can to do this chapter without falling asleep, so I know how you feel.
I walked down into the lab with Leo following behind me begging me to face Trent in the one-on-one tournament. And that was a huge no. I don't care if he promised Janelle I would play and that if I win the tournament Janelle and Leo will happily ever after forever and ever I didn't want to do it. Wow that sounded really rude.
"Please Cassie" he begged again.
"Leo no, I'm sorry" I stopped and stood in front of him.
"What's going on" Chase asked not looking up from the console.
"I told Janelle that I would get Cassie to join the one-on-one basketball tournament but Cassie won't do it" Leo explained and I rolled my eyes.
"Why not, you're great a basket ball" Chase finally looked up from the console to me.
"She's not just great she's fantastic" Leo sucked up giving me a puppy dog face.
"Next to Trent" I scowled.
"You have an undefeated record" Leo shouted exasperated.
"That's because I haven't faced Trent and I don't plan on doing that in the near future" I smiled at Leo sarcastically before I sat down on the counter.
"Please, it's like no matter what I do Trent always makes me look like a fool in front of Janelle" Leo started to pace the floor.
"Well, he does get a little help from you in that area" Chase smirked.
Leo rolled his eyes "Cassie, come on, you know me. I would never be able to beat him"
"Wait a second" Chase turned towards us with the light bulb face of his.
"uh-oh, you just put on your I'm-chase-and-I'm-smarter-than-you-and-I-have-an-idea-light-bulb face for. Not your best look by the way" Leo said and Chase scowled.
"I find it very attractive" I told Chase kissing his cheek.
Chase replaced his scowl with a smile "Davenport has been working on an Anti-gravity high top sneaker for astronaut training. Maybe the sneakers will up your game with a few gravity-defying slam dunks" Chase held up a huge pair of sneakers that looked amazing but those won't fit Leo.
"Chase not to play the obvious card but there is no way my combat kickers are gonna fit in those shoe canoes" Leo told him.
I looked at the shoes "Seriously, I could fit both my feet in one of those"
"Just put 'em on" chase gave Leo the shoes.
Leo rolled his eyes and took off his shoes then slipped on the other ones, they instantaneously shrunk to fit Leo's feet. "Whoa" Leo breathed in awe bouncing a little.
"That's incredible" I touched the shoes.
"Hey hands off!" Leo shouted jumping away which sent him into a whole bunch of gravity-defying jumps. He stopped and looked at us "Say hello to air Leo"
"Now for the real test" Chase smirked grabbing my basketball from under the desk handing it to me "Here ya go Cassie"
I started to dribble the ball and let Leo take it from me before he jumped across the room stuck to the wall then jumped over and made a slam dunk.
Leo looked at us wide eyed "Did you see that" he pointed to the basket "I don't need these shoes" Leo scoffed "that was all me"
"I doubt that" I mumbled watching Leo take off the shoes and trying to re attempt the shot but ended up failing and falling flat on his face
"Okay maybe it was the shoes" Leo admitted standing up.
I clapped "There now everyone's happy. You can beat Trent, I don't have to shatter my record, and Janelle will fall head over heels for you" Leo smiled and nodded.
Callie's POV
I was in the living room watching Bree do her cheer routine, she was going to try-out for the last spot on the squad. I was going to try out too but I was still debating whether to tell her or let her find out. I mean I don't want her to get mad at me but it's Bree she won't… right. I went to go say something but Adam came running in.
"Bree, you scared me!" Adam laughed catching his breath "I thought you blew up" I couldn't help but laugh too.
"No, I was practicing my cheer." She told him.
"Oh you mean…" he trailed off doing Bree's cheer but with a little Adam twist to it. "Also what is boom dynamite? I'm all excited and I don't even know what it is!" Adam shouted smiling. He was such a big cutie some times. I mean in that big giant teddy bear kind of way.
"Adam, that's the beauty of cheerleading. You don't have to think" Bree explained to me.
"Then it's perfect for me" Adam said smiling and I couldn't help but give out a small laugh. "I cannot wait for tryouts" Adam started to walk away but Bree stopped him.
"Wait, you're trying out?" Bree asked.
"Yeah about that-"
"Duh, you just saw my mad tick-boom-pow skills" Adam cut me off. HE repeated his pow "that's the 'pow' part" he told us.
"Actually Bree…" I started but trailed off when I heard what she said.
"You can't try out for cheerleading that's my thing. And besides there's only one spot on the squad and you do not wanna compete against me." Bree put her hands on her hips. So I guess I'm going with 'let her find out'
"Yes I do. See, cheerleading is one of the few sports that isn't competitive enough to raise my adrenaline and make me glitch out. So primp your pom poms, girly. 'Cause I'm about to. be aggressive! Be-e aggressive!" he laughed "Again I'm all excited and I don't even know why!" Adam's threw the pom poms at Bree and walked into the kitchen.
"This is ridiculous" she said crossing her arms.
"Yeah" I muttered.
Cassie's POV
Time to put the plan into action, I walked into the school form the courtyard and saw Trent run down the stairs. Perfect.
"Attention everyone" he called to everyone "Trent is in session. All bow to the honorable Trent. Is there anyone brave enough to challenge me in the tourney yet?" Trent asked Janelle.
I walked over and tapped his shoulder "excuse me 'honorable Trent' but yes there is" I answered him with a smirk.
"You" he laughed "Haven't we already settled this. UII am and always will better than you in basketball" Trent poked my shoulder.
I scowled "Not me" I spat "Him" I pointed to the door where Chase came in with a mega phone.
"Ladies and gentlemen… If I may have your attention. I present to you the soon-to-be champion of the one-on-one basketball tourney- Dunkin Leo Dooley"
Leo ran in and showed everyone on the back of his robe it said 'Dunkin Dooley' "Will assist. Flick a wrist. Win a game and pump a fist" he walked over to me and Trent "You think you'll go down smoothly? Well you never faced a champ like Dooley. Yes that just happened!" He called out and everyone cheered.
"Pound it" I shouted and we fist bumped.
"Well I'm the dude who's gonna…" he trailed off mumbling a whole bunch of random words "Somebody give some words that rhyme"
I rolled my eyes and followed Leo over to Janelle "Leo what are you doing?" she asked.
"He is signing up for the hoop-a-palooza" Chase answered taking the pencil from behind his ear and giving it to Leo.
"I thought you said you'd get Cassie to play?" Janelle asked confused.
"He tried. I said no. Leo said he'd play. Now we're here" I explained to Janelle.
"Don't miss the event of the school year, where Trent will be destroyed by the scrawny underdog one sixteenth his size!" Chase shouted into the megaphone.
"Laying it on a little thick aren't ya?" Leo said sarcastically before he wrote his name on the signup sheet.
"Here, let me help you" Janelle took her pencil and erased Leo's name.
"Hey I wanna sign up! I can play ball" Leo told her.
"He can play ball" Chase repeated into the mega-phone.
"I've been practicing"
"He has been practicing"
"Miracles do happen"
"Miracles do happ-"
Leo cut Chase off by taking the mega-phone "Stop!"
"Are you sure you can't sign up" Janelle looked at me with a begging face.
"Nope, Leo's your only hope" I told her patting Leos shoulder.
"Exactly" Leo wrote his name again and Janelle erased it, he wrote it again and she erased it again. "Stop it!"
"Yeah stop it!" Trent repeated walking over "I wanna play!"
Janelle sighed "Okay Trent I guess you finally have an opponent… Cassie" she wrote my name on the signup sheet.
"No, no, no, no, no" I took her pencil and erased my name "Leo" I wrote his.
"Dine" she mumbled "Leo" she told Trent.
"I'll see you on the court" Trent shrunk down to Leo's height "And try no to be so short" Trent paused "Just rhymed!" he shouted walking away and giving a guy a high five as he walked by.
"Leo you don't have to d o this" Janelle told Leo.
"I don't have to do a lot of things Janelle" Leo smirked shaking his head.
"I don't know what that means" Janelle shook her head as well.
"Neither do I" Leo's smirk fell.
Callie's POV
Okay it was time. Time for the cheerleading tryouts. I paced the halls before I finally walked into the gym and saw Bree and Adam. I waved sheepishly at them.
"Hey guys" Adam waved back but Bree just looked at the pom poms on my hands.
"Callie? What are you doing here?" she asked although I'm pretty sure she already knew.
"I'm trying out?" I said in more of a question.
Then the cheer captain, Stephanie I think her name was, walked over with a clipboard "Next we have Riley, Bella, Olive, Siri, Tommy, and Callie"
I smiled "That's me. Wish me luck" as I awkwardly walked over to the lineup.
Stephanie walked down the line turning everyone down before they even tried out "uh, that's a no. no. never. Nice try. You might wanna think about Tennis" she stopped in front of me and smiled "Ooh the new girl"
"Callie" I told her.
"Yeah whatever: she waved me off "Go on cheer"
I clapped twice "Yeah, yeah. Do we rock" clapped twice "Yeah, yeah. Take it to the top" clapped twice "Yeah, yeah. Are we gonna stop?" clapped twice "No way!" I shouted before I jumped up and landed in a spilt on the floor. I stood up and smiled.
"Impressive' she nodded "Go wait over there" as I walked over I saw Bree give me a hurt expression before she replaced it with a confident smile and did her cheer with Adam.
"Okay I've heard enough" Stephanie cut them off and stood in front of Bree "Better luck next year" she stood in front of Adam "And welcome to the squad. Sorry new girl" she called to me. Adam went to give her a hug but she stopped him and did a pinky hug.
"Adam that's great" I actually hugged him. Sure I didn't get the spot but honestly I'm kinda glad, I didn't want Bree mad at me.
"How is that possible he spent all morning wearing my pom poms as a wig" she held up her pom poms pointing to Adam.
"Not a wig a secret agent disguise" he looked around suspiciously.
"And how are you not mad?" Bree asked me placing her hands on her hips.
"I can just tryout next year" I shrugged. "Congrats again Adam" I smiled at him before I left the gym.
Cassie's POV
Leo and I were pacing back and forth in the gym waiting for Chase to bring Leo the shoes for the game. "Okay, Leo you got this" I encouraged him still pacing.
"I got this" Leo repeated.
Then Chase ran in "We have a major problem!" Chase exclaimed "Trent stole the sneakers" Chase told us.
"I don't got this" Leo shook his head.
"Leo, calm down, calm down" I calmed him.
"Trent has my shoes Cassie. What am I gonna do!?" He shouted panicking again.
"Let's just look at the bright side" Chase told him and we both stopped and looked at him.
"what bright side?" Leo asked.
"He is going to kick your butt much faster now" Chase told him seriously. I hit his shoulder.
"All right 30 seconds until game time, Trent's got ball first" Janelle walked over and told us.
"Trent is wearing my sneakers. What am I going to do?" Leo asked again.
Chase grabbed his shoulders "Run. Run far, far away. Cry like a baby and hope for sympathy. Fake a cramp" I pushed Chase off of Leo.
"Chase calm down." I turned to Leo "Leo you're just going to have to beat Trent without the sneakers"
"Or you could play" Leo offered with a hopeful smile.
"Not gonna happen" I answered not giving it a second thought.
"Oh come on" Leo shouted. He looked at Chase expectantly but when nothing happened he huffed "Where is that unattractive light bulb face when I need it" Chase rolled his eyes before he did it "Oh, there it is"
"All be right back. Stall" Chase said before he ran out of the gym without further explanation.
"You got this Leo" I told him pushing him onto the court. I watched in a amusement as he failed miserably to stall.
Callie's POV
I walked into the gym and saw Bree slumped on the bench, I walked over backwards watching Leo fake a charley horse. I bumped into something and I looked back to see it was the bench Bree was sitting on. I sat down and chuckled trying to fill the silence "So this game is interesting"
"Yeah" Bree mumbled not looking up from the floor.
I sighed "What's wrong" she looked up at me and it all clicked "Please tell me it's not because you didn't get the spot on the cheer squad. It's not that big of a deal"
"It is to me" Bree said looking back down at the ground.
I frowned "its okay Bree" I looked up when I felt someone walk over and saw it was Adam "Hey Adam"
"Hey Callie" he said before he sat on the other side of Bree.
"Shouldn't you be off juggling air heads" Bree said still bummed out and I smirked.
"Yeah but I quit the squad" I looked at Adam confused and so did Bree.
"What! Why?" she asked.
"I can't say why because it would hurt your feelings that they were making fun of you" Adam said seriously.
"Wait!" Bree smiled "You quit the team because they were making fun of me?" Bree asked.
Adam shook his head "I just told you I can't say that"
"Guys" Bree looked between me and Adam "We have moves that are way better than anything they have, we should just do our own cheer"
I nodded "Yeah let's do it"
"Oh, good idea! We'll see how they like it when we hit them with the turbo booty shake" Adam got up and started to shake his butt. I laughed so hard at all the strange stares he got.
Cassie's POV
The first game was over and like I suspected, Trent won. Now Leo was pacing the floor once again waiting for Chase to come back.
"Leo relax" I told him taking a seat on the bench near us.
"I can't, where is Chase!" Leo shouted just as Chase ran in "Where have you been? I tried stalling but I ran out of injuries to fake"
"The compounds in the sneakers are highly susceptible to electron beams. So… I ran home and got these" Chase held up two green electron beams "Electron-beam generators from the lab"
"Those are so cool" I went to touch them but Chase pulled it back.
"And those will mess up the shoes?" Leo asked.
"Say hello to repel and attract. I'll make Trent dance like a puppet. I f I were less mature, I'd evil laugh" Chase paused and then evil laughed.
Janelle called Leo over for the next game and Chase and I walked over to where no one would see us as Chase made Trent dance around the court while Leo tried to make some shots.
"What are you two doing?" Janelle asked leaning against the wall near us.
"Nothing" I shouted
"Cheering?" Chase offered "Go Leo!" Chase waved his hands.
Trent took off the shoes "I want my old shoe's back" he then fled the gym.
"Okay" Janelle drew out as she walked over to Leo "I guess since Trent left the court, I guess game two goes to Leo" everyone cheered.
"That's right!" Leo shouted "Leo. Me. Winner. Small's the new tall, ya'll. Bam!" everyone cheered again.
I watched as the cheer squad started their routine then Adam, Bree, and Callie ran on to the court doing their routine. My sisters a cheerleader… I did not see that coming. I have to ask her about that.
Janelle then walked into the gym holding something behind her back as she walked up to us.
"Did you have something to do with that display of 'Dancing with the Jocks'?" Janelle asked Leo.
"What makes you think he had anything to do with giving Trent his payback" I scoffed.
"Yeah I mean he only always picks on smaller, smarter, cuter people. But I had nothing to d o with it"
"Yeah. Not Leo. Nope" Chase evil laughed again, I hit his shoulder again making him stop.
"You're right. It's crazy to think the guy with the inventor dad and genius brother would somehow use electron beams to manipulate Trent's shoes so you'd win" Janelle held up the shoes.
"Yep, crazy" I nodded. She rolled her eyes and dropped the shoes which bounced about 10 feet away.
Leo watched them go "Huh, would you look at that"
"Good luck buddy" Chase patted Leo's shoulder.
Janelle pulled Leo aside and talked to him before she left. Leo turned to us and sighed.
"I guess there's only one thing to do"
"Yep" I nodded "Get out there and lose fair and square"
Leo looked at me as if I were crazy No are you insane! I meant for you to go up against Trent"
"No, Leo" I shook my head "No"
"Don't make me" we had a stare down.
"You wouldn't" I narrowed my eyes.
Leo walked out into the middle of the court and shouted to me "Please, please, please, please, please, please" by now everyone was watching "Please go up against Trent. Please… sister"
I glared at him, he did. I looked at everyone who was watching then sighed "Fine! I'll do it" I shouted walking to the middle of the court where Leo, Trent, and Janelle were.
"Okay, Janelle. This is what I originally promised you. Cassie is going to face Trent"
"Really" Janelle looked at me surprised.
"Yup" I nodded.
"Okay, first one to eleven wins" Janelle gave Trent the ball.
"You're going down" Trent looked me I the eye.
"Let's just do this" I told him before I got ready.
After a long time of me and Trent shooting basket after basket it was tied 10-10. Trent had the ball "What did I tell you. You are going down!"
"You go this Cassie!" Leo called out and everyone started cheering my name. Trent tried to cross me but I got the ball from him and made a shot. Everyone cheered. I ran over to Adam, Bree, Chase, and Leo smiling.
"That was nothing but net" Leo shouted. We looked at him "And rim and backboard but you still won"
I nodded "Yep you know why because I have one G that we didn't think of"
Leo smirked at me "Greatness" we shouted together and they all rolled their eyes.
After the game was over we all went back home and me and Callie were up in my room… well it was our room now.
"So you're really a cheerleader" I asked her remembering earlier.
"Not officially but you have to admit we rocked it out there" Callie smiled. I rolled my eyes.
Then Chase ran in "Cassie please help me. Bree and Adam won't stop cheering. It is so annoying." We could here Bree and Adam yelling as they came closer. "Do something"
I smirked "Okay" I pulled Chase into a kiss.
"Chase-" Bree stopped when she saw us. I heard them both give disgusted noises before they walked out.
"Okay there gone" Callie said sounding annoyed. I didn't stop it. "Seriously guys" Still didn't. I heard the door open so I quickly pulled away.
"Callie!" I shouted. She popped her head back in.
"What?" She asked irritated.
"So you're really a cheerleader" Callie rolled her eyes and walked out.
