I walk into the school and get immediately crowded by the cheer team

"Stella is waiting for you in the gym" Emma says as she links our arms and walks me there

As we enter the gym I see Stella standing in the middle so I head towards her

"So, how are you going to convince me that you're not taking drugs?" I asks as I cross my arms and stand in front of her

"Emily, can you explain to her why I came to you for drugs?" Stella asks as she crosses her arms and glares at me

I hear Emily walk out of the huddle of cheerleaders behind me and stop beside me

"She came to my house last week and asked for some weed, but I was thinking of her position on the squad so I said no. I went to close the door but she stopped it with her foot and threatened me" she says as her voice gets shaky like she's going to cry

"She said if I didn't get her any weed she'd drop me during practice for the pep rally. I didn't want to be the cause of us having to learn a whole new routine for the pep rally, so I asked my sister to get her the drugs" she says as she wipes away tears and sniffles her nose

"That never happened you bi-" Stella yells but efficiently getting cut off by Emma

"See  Amelia, I knew there was something wrong about her from the minute she auditioned" Emma claimed

"If you don't believe me then check my locker" Stella says as she glares at Emma

"I did it beforehand. Look what I found" Amber says as she holds up a brownie with weed beside it in the bag

"I trusted you, but there's too much evidence to show that you have a problem" I say to Stella as I sadly sigh

"I can't be friends with you right now" I say as I feel a tear fall down my face

"They're lieing to you" Stella says with pleading eyes

"I- I don't believe you" I say with finality in my voice

"Oh and if it wasn't obvious, you're off the squad" Emma says before pulling me into a side hug and leading me to science class.

I was walking to lunch when I get pulled into the janitors closet and a hand gets placed over my mouth so that I am unable to speak, so I did the next best thing

"Ah, shit" I heard them yell before they turned the light on

"Easton? What the hell?" I whisper yell at him as he holds his manhood in pain

"I should be asking you the same thing, you kneed me in the dick" he says as he expresses his distress and annoyance

"Well here's an idea," I say sarcastically "don't pull girls into closets" I say like it was obvious

"Whatever," he says recovering "What's wrong with Stella. She's pissed and she won't talk to me" he says as he looks me in the eye to check if I tell him a lie

"She was threatening one of the cheerleaders for drugs. There was proof" I say as I cross my arms and shrug my shoulders

"Did she say why?" He asks getting frustrated with my attitude making me roll my eyes

"She said so she could give them to Amber, but Amber had the proof" I said with just as much attitude as before

"Do you know how messed up that is?" He says and he turns away from me and throws his arms up in frustration "This Amber chick probably got those drugs from her own house" he says as he stares at me with a duh tone.

"Tell me this," I say calmly "if Amber does the drugs and has them, then why did she have a weed brownie when Stella told me that yesterday she got brownies from Emily?" I ask him

"Stella said she got brownies from Emily on Saturday, that's why she left when you got there" I say as I go to open the door but I get pulled back by Easton grabbing my arm

"You better apologize to Stella or-" he starts to say before I cut him off

"Or what?" I glare at him

"I'll make you and those cheerleaders life a living hell" he says with malice in his voice

"Bring it on" I say as I open the door and stomp towards the cafeteria.

"Amelia, what took you so long?" Emma asks as I sit down in the seat next to her

"Sorry I got stopped by someone who wants to sabotage our pep rally" I say to inform her since she is the captain

"Thanks for telling me" she says appreciatively.

"Okay, that was decent. Let's do it again but this time make it great" Emma yells at us before we do the whole routine over again

We've done the routine five times already and all of us are tired, but we knew what we signed up for at tryouts so we just have to deal with it.

"That's better," she smiles when we finish the routine the way she wanted "you're good to go home, practice at home, we only have two days until the pep rally" Emma says before she grabs her duffel and heads out for the day.

As I make my way towards my car I get stopped by Easton who is leaning against it.

What the hell is he doing.

"What the hell are you doing? Go home." I say to him as I try not to bring attention to our current situation

He smirks "now why would I do that babe?" He questions as he slides his arms around my waist causing me to look at him like he's crazy

"Are you a mad man? Get off of me" I say as I try to pry his arms off of me so if Emma is still here she won't get the wrong idea

"Why? Are you scared?" He questions causing me to groan in annoyance

"Fine. What do you want?" I ask as I cross my arms

"Talk to Stella" he says with a serious expression

"Not now, maybe after the pep rally" I say annoyed.

Even if I did forgive her, the other cheerleaders wouldn't. If they did there wouldn't be enough time for her to memorize the routine.

"Why?" He asked getting frustrated as he grabs his hair

"Because there's not enough time" I say lowly as I glare at him

"You're acting like a bitch" he says causing me to laugh humorlessly at him

"Funny, I could say the same thing about you earlier" I say as I glare at him again

"Keep your friends close but your enemies closer" he says looking at me

"They're not my enemies" I say as I defend the cheer team and he gets off my car

"I don't know how much I believe that" he says as he shakes his head disapprovingly and walks towards his car.
