"I'm fine!" Jordan assured her mother for the fifth time today, walking around her mother's classroom. "You had a panic attack in the bathroom!" Mrs. Cooper snapped. "A usual mom doesn't get calls 30 minutes after the new school year starts that her 14 year old daughter had a panic attack in the bathroom!" She added.

"Look mom, I am so sorry, ok?" Jordan apologizes, taking out a stack of papers. "What's this?" Mrs. Cooper questions, scanning the pile. "Well, I want to try..." Jordan starts, and her mom hasps. "Cheerleading!" Jordan cheers, taking out green and white pom-poms. "Go eagles!" Jordan cheers. "Jordan! This is great!" Her mom says, hugging her daughter. "I know! The therapist said all I needed is something to do, and it'll keep my mind off certain things." Jordan explains. "Did you tell your friends? Ethan?"  Her mom asks. "Not yet." Jordan smiles, and twirls her pom-poms.

OOOO

He knew it was wrong, which is why if felt so good. During graduation, Ethan rekindled with his then-ex Brandy, to the point where he's cheating on Jordan. Sure, Jordan's smart, pretty and fun but he got tired. He doesn't want to break her heart, in a way she's aware of. He sighed, staring at the text message. Hang out at McDonald's? It read. Ethan has never actually been out with Brandy in public in 3 years, so this was somewhat new.

I'd love to he put, then head out. Ethan took a deep breath, and crossed the street. "You cheater!" Ethan heard, and stopped. A loud honk, and a scream. Ethan's body was flung into the air. "What would happend if I jumped off??" Kaley's voice asks, as Ethan falls asleep.

OOOO

"Si mami, yo intiende." (1) Rebecca assures her mom, having less freedom since last year. "Por favor, Rebecca, portasen bien." (2)  Her mom instructs, and combs her hair. "Que tu cre? Una guna va a vierne y matad?" (3) Rebecca giggles, and her mother stares at her seriously. "Yo estoy hugando!" (4)   Rebecca defends. "Uh-huh, si."  (5) Her mom mutters, and watches her daughter walk out the door.

Rebecca hopped into her sister's car, waiting for her to arrive. "Hurry up!" Rebecca calls, and turns on the radio. Her sister comes in, watching Rebecca dance. "Oh god...now that we're in the same school...you can embarrass me!" She gasps. "Come on, Sophie, I'm not evil, not like you." Rebecca remarks, fixing her hair. Sophie pulls on Rebecca's hair, and Rebecca hits Sophie. "You know what?" Rebecca starts, opening the car door. "What?" Sophie mutters. "I don't need you, or your Mercedes!" Rebecca shouts, slamming the car door.

"Fine! Have fun walking!" Sophie calls back, driving away. "Wait! I need you!" Rebecca yells desperately, watching the car drive off.

OOOO'

"Give me a R!" Jordan cheers, wearing her cheerleading uniform in front of Stephanie at McDonald's. "R...you freaking kidding me?!" Stephanie replies, standing up, paying for her food. "Nope." Jordan answers, sipping the soda. "You really are a blonde." Stephanie says, snatching the soda, inserting another straw and drinks from it. "I know, wait! No I'm not!" Jordan defends, putting her pom-poms down. "Well, you can enjoy cheering your ass off in the school play." Stephanie mutters, accidentally slipping the play. "Wait, what?" Jordan catches on.

"Hehehe." Stephanie giggles. "Drama? Again? I thought we agreed that it was for freaks, right?" Jordan recalls. "Hehe about that...speaking of freaks, I thought we agreed cheerleaders were freaks that only cared about boys and looks!" Stephanie snapped. "So you're calling me a freak?" Jordan replies. "You called me a freak!" Stephanie points out. "You are!" Jordan answers. "Fine then, screw you." Stephanie says, grabbing her bag. She walked out the door, and gasped. Jordan, curious, went to the window. "Ethan?" Jordan gasps, staring at her boyfriend being put on a gurney.

OOOO

Annie and Julia sat at the mall food court, waiting for Simon. Annie ate her burger, as Julia was waiting for her food. "Hey uh...is this seat taken?" A boy with brown hair and matching eyes ask. "Yes!" Julia cheers. "Wait, I mean no." Julia adds. "Yeah...we're waiting for someone." Annie says, and Julia pulls a chair over to their table.

"There's an extra chair here. She's Annie." Julia says energetically. "No, I'm not. I'm...Maya," Annie lies. "Hi Annie, I'm Christian." He greets.
