Crying on the Inside

by: Stacey Scott


The Brentwood High School cheerleading squad went over their last routine of the practice. With the head cheeleader Michelle Scott in the front, the others followed her lead. They were practicing for the basketball game the following Friday. Since it was the first game of the season they needed a routine that would rock the house. They had their routine to the song I'm A Slave 4 U. It was also a secret that the coach didn't know about which was Michelle's idea to do. When practice was over they headed to their locker room to gather their belongings.

"Guess where I'm going tonight?" Brianna Matthews said to her two best friends. She took her brunette hair out of the ponytail and let it hang down.

"Where?" Heather James said.

"To Joey's house. His parents are gone and it's gonna be just me and him," Brianna said smiling. Heather's eyes went wide as she went to hug her friend. Michelle sat back and smiled but was not as excited.

"You have to tell me everything and leave out nothing," Heather said excitedly. The thing is Brianna hadn't been with Joey all that long to be this excited over sex. Everyone knew about Joey Fatone. He admitted to sleeping with half the girls at another school before he started to date Brianna.

"What's the matter with you girl?" Brianna said to Michelle seeing her friend deep in thought.

"Nothing just thinking," she answered as she closed her locker door.

"Let's go so we could meet the guys." The three girls walked to the parking lot to where their boyfriends were. JC, Joey and Lance Bass were waiting in the parking lot for them.

"It took you guys long enough," Lance said as he grabbed Heather by her thin waist to kiss her. Michelle looked at her boyfriend JC and watched how his brown hair blew in the wind. He smiled as she approached. They kissed when she reached his car. The six of them were the most popular kids in school and they were treated like royalty even by the teachers. They even had reserved parking spaces.

"So what's up for tonight?" JC asked.

"We have plans," Joey and Brianna said at the same time. They laughed. Lance gave them a look.

"Oh those kind of plans," he said hitting Joey on his arm.

"Yup. You know it," Joey said laughing.

"Come on guys let's go," Heather said and they all left in their seperate cars. Michelle headed home. She went inside her house and took a shower. She thought about what Brianna said earlier. She was finally going to do it with her boyfriend. Heather was the only one who came close one time with Lance but her mom came home. But the two of them seemed like that's all they wanted to do with their boyfriends. Michelle didn't yet. Eventually she would with JC but it wasn't long enough. She knew JC most of her life and she loved him very much. She wanted to wait and make sure JC was the one. So far he was and Michelle loved him in every way she just wasn't ready to be that close yet. She knew the next day Brianna would call her and tell her all about it and then soon Heather would get anxious and she would be the only virgin left. But her friends understood. Right?
