S1: Day 159 (159) NS1: Day 20

CHEERLEADERS VS THE APOCALYPSESEVEN After all the excitement, Marco sent Taylor a super mushy text. I zoomed in and read it. “Just thinking of you. Game done! We won!” He put his phone aside and attempted to sleep. Xandi went back to her place and stayed up for several hours researching possible future encounters with […]

S1: Day 145 (145) NS1: Day 6

21 – 17. Yeah Fighting Ducks! I don’t ask questions about mascots. Ever. I know I’ll never understand. What matters is the team one. For those who care: the game was close and intense. Lots of moments where I was biting my nails with anxiety. Xandi loves these kinds of events. Growing up, she was […]

S1: Day 138 (138)

I’ll skip forward to after school. Can’t say anything interesting happened during the day. Xandi attended her classes dutifully, and then she went to cheer practice. Afterward, once all the routines have been run through and plans for the evening game are in place, is when she approaches Marco with her proposal. He’s a part […]

S1: Day 117 (117)

Where we last left the Cheerleaders… *** Xandi is filled with uncertainty as she gets ready for school the next day. I can tell by the way she rakes her lower lip between her teeth, and how she keeps shaking her head as she mumbles her thoughts to herself. She’s processing, and there is a […]

S1: Day 114 (114)

She’s losing her mind because she’s slowly being forced to lose herself. Back when she was young and didn’t have as many responsibilities, she was unafraid to not fit into the boxes presented before her. As time went on, and life got harder, and she felt more and more out of place, she thought: Perhaps […]

S1: Day 107 (107)

She only has so many things she can do in a day. She only has so many feelings she can absorb as well. There are only so many times she can be interrupted and disrespected before she breaks. When the others around her wonder why she hurts and is broken, they will not see that […]

S1: Day 93 (93)

Lenora’s latest flavor was good at kissing, she’d give him that, but she didn’t particularly feel all too connected to the act. Like usual, her mind disappeared from the experience, and her body functioned on autodrive. She got what she needed from the poor man. Jealousy from her ex. It fueled her. For every new […]

S1: Day 40 (40)

More Cheerleaders! *** Xandi is filled with uncertainty as she gets ready for school the next day. I can tell by the way she rakes her lower lip between her teeth, and how she keeps shaking her head as she mumbles her thoughts to herself. She’s processing, and there is a lot to process. Mainly, […]
