"Alright ladies, that was an excellent first practice. I really am thinking we'll be able to make it the Championship game this year." Coach said as we finished our practice. "Lady Lions on 3" She said putting here hand in the middle of the group. We did the same.
"1, 2, 3" She started. "Lady Lions!" We all said throwing our hands up. The schools mascot was a lion so we of course are "Lady Lions".
"So, how is Pallet Towns volleyball team compared to your old team?" May asked as we walked to the locker room to change.
"Pretty good." I replied. "I'm also thinking we can make it to the Champs this year." I added.
"Yeah especially with you on the team. I now know why you were the MVP. You're really competitive." She replied laughing a bit. I laughed along with her. "Hey, do you want to do Cheer or Dance Team with me?" She asked.
"Um, when are tryouts and when would the practices be?" I asked.
"The tryouts are this week before school, so like at 6:00 a.m. And practices would be at the same time." She answered.
"I'll think about it. I actually love dancing, my best friend and I used to go to a dance studio back in Twin Leaf town." I said while putting on a gray cropped hoodie over my sports bra. I put on a pair of athletic leggings as well and kept my volleyball shoes on.
"Oh that's so cool." May added. She changed into a black hoodie, skinny jeans and she put on gray Vans.
We walked out of the locker room and said goodbye to the coach.
"Wait, Berlitz, is it true you were MVP in the volleyball club you were in back in Sinnoh?" She asked. I nodded. "That's amazing! Good job. I'm glad to have you on the team this year." She said.
"Thank you, and I'm glad to be on the team as well." I said smiling.
May and I left and saw that the boys were still practicing so we sat on the bleachers. Their practice ends thirty minutes after ours. I heard that last year the team went to the Championships but they lost. The guys were all really good, the other team must have been better.
"Hey what's your Instagram?" May asked.
"Its just DawnBerlitz." I replied taking my phone out. She looked for my account and I got a notification saying she followed me so I followed her back.
"Is that your best friend from back in Sinnoh?" She asked showing me a picture if Leaf and I. I nodded. "Wow, she's insanely pretty, I'm surprised your brother isn't dating her."
"Yeah I know right? She's always asked out by some of the hottest guys but she always says no because she doesn't want a relationship at the moment. And my brother and her are like brother and sister so they've never dated." I responded.
"Oh wow." May said.
I heard the coach blow the whistle and the boys huddled up. After the coach talked to them, the guys headed towards the locker room to change. May and I walked down the bleachers and went towards the car. I unlocked it and we got in. May got in the passenger seat, so that meant Drew had to sit in the back.
I connected my phone to the aux cable connected to the car and started playing some music while we waited for Drew.
Drew came out of the locker room and he was walking with Ash and Gary. Once Drew reached the car, Ash, Gary and him did a bro handshake and Drew got in the car.
"Wow, ok leave the oldest to be in the back seat." Drew complained.
"Well you took too long, so I beat you to it." May responded sticking her tongue out at him. Drew playfully rolled his eyes.
I started driving out of the parking lot and started driving to May's house. We stopped at a gas station because the car needed some gas. May got down to pay because she wanted to get a Gatorade. I filled up the car and continued to drive to May's house.
"Bye. I'll see you guys tomorrow." May said getting out if the car.
"Bye." Drew and I said in unison. Drew got out of the car and sat in the passenger seat. I started driving back home.
"Stay away from most of the guys on the football team." Drew said suddenly.
"I don't even know most of them, but why?" I asked.
"I heard some stuff. A few of them didn't say anything, like Ash and Gary, so they're fine. But the other guys, just stay away." He added. I just nodded my head.
We got home and went inside.
"Mom! We're home!" I yelled into the kitchen.
"Dinner will be ready soon, just go take a shower and come down!" She responded.
Drew and I went upstairs to take a shower. I chose my blue pajama shorts and a big white t-shirt to wear after I took a shower.
Once I finished taking a shower and changed into my clothes I brushed my hair and blow dried it and put it into a messy bun. I went downstairs and dinner was done.
We talked about our day while eating dinner and my mom mentioned that she may be able to have her restaurant open in these next few months.
"That's awesome!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah and I already have a few people in mind that I'd like to have work there." She explained.
After dinner, I went upstairs and logged into my computer and FaceTimed Leaf.
"Hey." I heard her answer. She was laying in bed and I heard her tv in the background.
"Hey, what's up?" I asked her.
"I was just watching Netflix. What about you?" She replied.
"I just got done eating dinner." My phone buzzed while I was talking and I picked it up to see a text from May.
May: Have you thought about dance team?
"Who is it?" Leaf asked.
"May, a new friend I made today. She asked if I wanted to join the dance team at the school. Should I?" I wanted to know her opinion.
"Yes! I love the dance team here, I'm pretty sure you'll like the one in Kanto." She explained.
"Okay, I'll try it out. Oh and so the most hilarious thing happened today when I got home from school. I was dancing around my room to Controlla, and when I looked out the window, the neighbor was watching me and since he's on the football team when I went to practice, he played Controlla on purpose to tease me." I said laughing.
"Typical you. Whenever Controlla comes on, you always couldn't help but dance. Is your neighbor cute at least?" She asked.
"Yeah I guess so." I responded while texting May back.
Me: Yeah, I'll try it.
May: Awesome. Tryouts are tomorrow at 6 a.m. I'll see you tomorrow.
"You guess so? Let me see a picture of him. What's his instagram?" Leaf asked.
"I don't have a picture if him and don't know his instagram. But his name is Ash Ketchum if you want to try and find it." I said knowing she'd find his instagram. She's kind of like a detective when it comes to stuff like finding someone's social media accounts.
"Found it, is this him?" She asked putting her phone infront of the computer camera. There was a picture of Ash, Gary and another guy with purple hair, in their football uniform.
"Yup that's him."
"Oh, he is cute, but his friend is more attractive who is he?" She pointed at Gary when she put the phone infront of the camera again.
"That's Gary Oak. He's in the same grade as us." I explained.
"Found his instagram. He was tagged in another one of Ash's pictures. Damn he's fucking hot. Does he have a girlfriend?"
"I don't know. That's not something you ask someone when you meet then Leaf."
"I did, once. Remember?" She asked laughing a bit.
"Oh, yeah. I can't believe that guy gave you his number even though he had a girlfriend."
"I know, he was cute though not gonna lie." I heard her mom tell her to go to sleep. "Well got to go, call or text me tomorrow." She said hanging up.
I put my laptop away and decided to go to tell my mom and brother that I'd be going to dance team tryouts tomorrow morning. I was too comfortable to get up so I just texted them. I turned on some music, and went to sleep.
