3. The First Meet (1/1)
in my leotard, i started pacing around. oh boy, the first meet. i thought. chase calmed me. "girl, you have to calm down."
i forced a smile and sighed. "i know, but i'm just really nervous."
"but you're great." he smiled at me. i smiled back, and nodded. "so you agree with me? you think you're really good?"
i shoved him. "shut-up."
ms. louye came in. "alright, get out there, and do your best. we need to win this." we all hurried out, and started stretching. then, we started. luckily i wasn't first. destiny was. she was doing beam. she did a backwalkover, double backhandspring, and landed it perfectly with a back tuck. everyone clapped, and the judges gave her an 7.64
destiny rolled her eyes and muttered, "i'd like to see you do it better."
next, mallory went on floor. i think her routine was the greatest out of all of ours. the judges gave her a 8.95. we all screamed and hugged her. the other girl who went on floor didn't do so well, but they made it up when the girl on bars got a 9.976.
then, it was my turn! i
eathed in and out and got ready to do bars. i flipped and turned and flipped and turned. then, i let go of my hands, and went on the higer bar, did a handstand and flipped and turned some more. after that, i let go, turned, and luckily i grabbed the bars again. then, i flipped and landed it. they gave me an 8.627. i smiled
then, chase did vault. he sprinted, jumped and did a fronttuck twist. they gave him a 9.36. he came over and gave me a hug. i blushed. a few other people from pennslyvaina and south carolina went, then it was ryan's turn on the floor. he did his routine nicely, except he messed-up a few things, but i don't think anybody noticed. they gave him a 6.21.
we ended up in second place by four points. afterwards, we went for ice cream to cele
ate. chase pulled me to the side.
"you did great out there." he said.
i blushed. "thanks, so did you."
chase got really close to me. i backed up. "umm, what are you doing?" i asked.
chase looked down. "sorry, i.."
i kissed him. yes! i kissed chase!
he looked at me and smiled.
