Yvonne

At Eastnord High School...

The basketball field was almost empty by the time Dyia got there with his best friend, Will. Practice was over but the cheerleaders were still packing up their pom-poms.

Dyia stared at Yvonne his girlfriend, who was the captain of the cheerleaders.

Yvonne was a girl whose beauty surpassed even some of the country's top super models. She was often complimented for her slender figure and confident presence.

Right in the middle, giving orders, was Yvonne.

"Girls, again tomorrow by 4pm sharp! If you're late, you run laps!" she shouted, hands on her hips. The other girls nodded quickly. Everyone listened when captain Yvonne spoke.

When she turned and saw Dyia leaning on the fence, her serious captain face disappeared instantly.

"You took long," she said, running over to him. Her cheer uniform was still on.

"Captain mode is scary," Dyia teased as he sat down with her on the bench. "I thought you were going to make me run laps too."

Yvonne laughed and hit his arm. "I should. You never come to watch my practices anymore."

"I'm here now," he said. "Did you get a new routine?"

"Yes, for the finals next week. Coach said if we win, we get to go nationals," she said proudly, then her smile faded a little.

"You will come, right? You promised last time and you didn't show up because of your mom's business dinner."

Dyia held her hand. " I will be there. Front row. I promise, Captain."
