Prompt: Stevo - "This isn't tiddlywinks" - 'Super League Live'
AN: Posting this because I need something light hearted after some of the stuff I've written lately!
He was an athlete. How much harder could cheerleading be than football? After all, as quarterback, he had the opposing defense converging on him while he was trying to do his job on the football field. He didn't have to worry about that in cheerleading. All he had to worry about in cheerleading was learning the routines, and lifting some girls into the air. That last part didn't sound so bad actually.
As for the routines, well maybe he did have two left feet but he liked to believe that he was getting better. After all, he was a part of Glee Club now. Somehow, he managed to sing and dance during that, even if he couldn't exactly be accused of being graceful.
Besides, he needed to be a part of a team. Glee Club didn't count. He was being blackmailed into that and it wasn't exactly popular. The Cheerios had respect among the other students in the school - more than the football team actually.
Perhaps it was kismet that he had gotten kicked off the football team, whatever kismet meant. He should probably look the word up, especially as it was a vocab word this week. Anyway, what he wanted most was recognition among his peers. He wanted to be popular. Being a part of the Cheerios would help him in that quest more than being a part of a losing football team.
Yeah, this wasn't so bad, after all. He'd got out there, show Coach Sylvester what he could do, and be back on track to being part of the popular crowd again.
He had this covered.
