2-finding out

Evie's POV

We were all in one big circle tied together.

"This is more crowded than a truckload of goats." Dwayne commented on how close everyone was together.

"Somebody better watch their hands." Julie said.

"I agree." I said looking at Julie how was beside me.

I was in the middle of Julie and Connie.

And I wasn't complaining.

"Yeah, someone licked me!" Averman added to Julie's statement.

"Oh, I smell somethin'. Eewh. Eewh."  I said a gross smell filling my nose.

"GOLDBERG!" Everybody exclaimed.

"It wasn't me." Goldberg claimed.

"No, it was me!" Dean said lifting his armpits letting out a horrible smell.

"Thank you." Goldberg said.

We all groaned in disgust.

"Boys are disgusting." I said to Connie on my right.

"I agree." She said back to me.

Gordon blew his whistle and everybody's attention was on him now.

"I don't know how to make this any clearer. You are a team." Coach explained.

"And to win this thing you have to work as one, now as one, skate." He finished.

We all tried to skate different ways and just ended up on our bottoms.

"Everyone goes their own way, everyone falls down. Now get up and try it again." Coaches said to us.

So here we were trying it again.

"Alright everybody move to your right. Now." Dean explained to us.

So half started moving right.

"Who made you boss? Everybody to your left." Fulton defended.

"Yeah, left guys." Someone agreed.

Half went left and other half went right.

I was one of the ones that went left along with Connie.

And others who agreed on going left.

"Aw man." I groaned in pain as Connie landed on my leg.

"Sorry." Connie apologized. Worry laced in her voice.

"It's alright." I said patting her shoulder.

"You guys can argue all you want, but I am not untying you until you move as one." Coaches explained to us.

'How great.' I thought to myself.

Soon we were all skating together.

Not falling.

"Now you're learning! Communication! That's it?" Coach exclaimed.

"Good, together. Move together. Charge! All right!"

"Right turn!" He said using his hands to the right.

"Turn right." Someone said to everyone.

"Yeah, that's it! That's it! All right! Knock wood, Charlie." He said cheering.

"You guys are startin' to look like hockey players. I'm proud of ya, team." Coach said with pride in his voice.
