Vincent's POV
Today was Friday and all clubs, sports, and etc were called down to get their uniforms. Cheerleaders and football players had to go to the gym to get theirs. When I got there Sammie already had his uniform and there was a long line.
"Sammie!" I call to get his attention. He doesn't hear me. I try to get through the crowds and line to get to him. "Sa-" I stop myself when I see him talking to a girl.
She seemed new. I think I saw her on Wednesday but didn't really pay any attention to her. She was wearing a yellow, red, and white cheerleading uniform. I stare at the girl then him, trying to analyze what's going on but I get brought out of my thoughts.
"Hey Vincent!" a voice said.
I thought it was Sammie but he was still talking to the girl. I turned around and it was Derrick he wasn't in uniform so he probably didn't get it yet.
"Hey," I said a bit disappointed as I walked over to him at in the line.
"Oh, you thought I was Mason huh?" Derrick asked smirking.
I almost forgot about Mason. I started smiling. "Nope," I said shaking my head.
"Oh well come on and get in line before anyone notices," he whispered and pulled me in line.
When we finally got up there I went to the girl coach and Derrick went to Coach Kal.
"Vincent." the coach said smiling. "I heard a lot about you," she said now smirking.
I gulped, damn Coach Kal. "All good things I hope," I say.
"You could say something like that," she said with her eyes slanted. "I heard some very interesting things though," she said and I panicked. I guess she noticed because she looked amused.
"I have a long sleeved and short sleeve shirt for you," she said giving it to me in the bag.
"What about pants?" I asked.
"I have a skirt but I didn't think you would want to wear that," she said.
"Well, what am I suppose to wear then?" I asked shocked.
"I bought some tights I thought you could wear," she said shrugging her shoulders.
"Tights." I squeaked which made her smile.
"Yes it's that or the skirt," she said with her eyes gleaming. "Or you could wear just your boxers," she said looking amused.
"Wha-What!?" I said as my face heated up.
She leaned forward towards me. "So which is it?" she asked.
"Tights," I said looking down.
"Try the skirt too and then you can just wear the tights," she said smiling.
I was going to argue but she shoved the skirt in my hands. I left and changed in the bathroom near the gym. I came out embarrassed as I stepped back into the gym. People stared, laughed, and whispered.
"Can I take it off now," I said through clenched teeth.
She only smiled at me. "Go chat to your friends and see what they think then you can change," she said.
I see, I guess all the coaches are against me. I know this is Coach Kal's doing. I stomped my way to Derrick. He was changed. He turned around and his eyes widen.
"What are you wearing?" he said in shock.
"Don't ask, where's the midget?" I asked while gritting my teeth.
"Um Sammie?" he said and looked around. "Over there," he said pointing to the place with benches.
I walked over there. The girl and him were still talking. I cleared my throat. Both of them turned around and their eyes widen. Sammie smirked and stood up.
"Well well, I've been looking for our cheerleader," Sammie said walking towards me.
"Shut up midget," I said and he glared at me. "I've been the one that was trying to get your attention since I got here," I said as I felt people staring at me.
"My bad, so why are you wearing a skirt," he asked looking down at the skirt.
"I was forced," I said.
"Um Sammie who is this?" the girl finally spoke.
I looked at her. "I should be asking who you are," I said.
Sammie glanced at her then me. "This is Vincent, Vincent this is Alexis," he said.
"Nice to meet you," she said putting out her hand.
I looked at her hand then her. Who did she think I was?! I was not in the mood to make friends in this get-up. I turned to Sammie and ignored her.
"Anyway," I said and I could have sworn I saw her jaw drop. "You look cute in your little football get up," I said smirking.
His face heated up. "Sh-Shut up at least I'm not wearing a skirt!" he said.
"Yeah yeah," I said. "Anyway, how do you know miss thang over there?" I said.
The girl looked at me with shock. Sammie bit his lip to keep from laughing. "She's in my geometry class," he said.
"Oh, little smarty pants is in geometry should've guessed," I said and he rolled his eyes.
"You should probably get out of that skirt. It doesn't look good on you," he said smirking.
"Whatever I'll be on my way," I said turning away from him.
"See you in class," he said.
A smile appeared on my face. "Yeah," I said and walked off.
As I was heading out into the hall to go to the bathroom I bumped into something.
"Ow!" a voice said.
"My ba-" I began to say but when I looked up it was Mason.
My eyes widen. I was screaming in my head. His eyes widen as well.
"Vincent?" Mason asked surprised.
"Yes." I squeaked and looked slightly at the ground embarrassed.
I glanced up and he was smirking. "You look good in a skirt," he said.
"Huh, wha-what?" I said looking at him with my face flushed.
"You look good," he said winking at me then walking pat me. Leaving me confused and flustered in the hallway.
I finally pulled myself together and went into the bathroom. I changed back to my regular clothes. We were all sent back to our next class. As I walked to biology my mind was off somewhere else.
"Vincent. Vincent? Vincent!" Sammie said.
"Huh?" I say and walk into the door.
"Dummy," he said as I rub my face. "What's going on? You're spacing out," he said as he opened the door for us.
"Nothing," I said and he slanted his eyes at me.
"Nothing sounds like something," he said.
"Don't worry about it," I said as he sat down and I sat behind him.
The rest of the day I spaced out. In the gym I got a ball hit my face. Sammie freaked out while everyone else laughed and Derrick shook his head. At lunch, I spilled my lunch on Veronica. Which made my day even though it was an accident. But I did have to talk to the principal. Luckily I was left off the hook. And now I'm in bed spacing off when I should be asleep. My phone vibrated. I got two new messages. One from Sammie and then one from Mason. I checked Sammie's.
Are you okay? You're scaring me
I smiled, Sammie's such a worry wart. It's funny he pretends not to worry or care.
I'm fine I sent
I went to check Mason's text.
So what's your address
Oh yeah, we have a date tomorrow.
I sent him my address and lay back on my pillow. My phone vibrated. I checked the new message. It was from Sammie.
Good.... Good night
I smiled. Good night, worry wart. ;) Sweet dreams I sent
My phone vibrated again. I checked it was once again Sammie.
Whatever good night cheerleader
I slanted my eyes.
Midget I sent :P
Why you gotta be so rude (sings)
Whatever that's my thing don't steal that from me I sent
Whatever night
Night I sent
After that, I sighed and smiled. I went to sleep.
