There's no substitute for a great love
who says,
no matter what's wrong with you, you're welcome at this table.

I smiled as Addison brushed up my make up. Applying glitter to my cheek bones and eyes. She put an extra layer of gloss on my lips too.

"You're going to be fine. We all are." She assures me. I'm a nervous wreck when it comes to cheering in front of elite judges. People from Julliard were going to be present too.

"Thanks." I smile back at her.

"Just remember to kill them with a smile." She reminded me showing me a smile flaunting her pearly whites.

The blonde woman I've always looked up to walked into the smallish dressing room provided for us. She gave me a smile and I stood to hug her.

"Now honey take it easy. Its just regionals not your wedding day." She jokes and I laugh.

Everyone is rooting for you and your sister and of course your girls." she hugs me again.

"Everyone?" I ask in confusion. Only she and Gwen came along with I and Valerie.

"You'll see." Then she winks and walks away. I checked the time and saw that it was already five.

"Who's performing now?" I ask Addy.

"Uh.... Kingston memorial. We're up after West side which is after Kingston." She breathes out.

I have to pull my self together. I mean I've been waiting for this for so long.

Very soon our name was announced and we walked out in a single file. Big smiles on our faces.

We stood in the middle of the large hall and in the middle of the crowd I spotted my family. Dad, mom, Gwen, Seth, Romeo ( Gwen's boyfriend ), Nathan, Gayle, Anais, Jason held a sign up for Valerie who from the corner of my eye I could she was blushing bright red. Even Amy was there. She sat with Seth who was sporting a shirt with Vaughn on it.

The music started and we did our things. We formed a pyramid first consisting of me at the top, Addy, Angela, Valerie, Darla and Gloria or whatever her name was. I did a flip and landed on the floor and I heard a whistle from Seth. I smiled at the crowd and the judges as I landed and val and Addy did cartwheels in the back.

Darla did a back flip and the the girls formed three pyramids with me in the middle on top and Addy and Angela at my sides. We did double flips at the same time and landed perfectly with smiles in the hands of other girls.

We did a little more jumping and cheering when our time was almost up we formed the largest pyramid yet. I was on top of course then I did a triple flip which I spent all day yesterday mastering. I did a little prayer and jumped off doing the flip. I landed almost perfectly. I didn't fall though, no I'm too graceful for that.

We were done so we lined up and bowed before starting away. Listening to the cheers from my family made tears come to my eyes. One of the juliard people even gave me or us a standing ovation.

After five minutes we were called for the announcements.

They were starting from third place and they announced the California jaguars my heart skipped a beat. The next I heard our name and I was the first to scream. We came in second which meant we were off to nationals. I didn't care that we weren't first anyway. It didn't matter.

The Juliard guy came over and told me to be expecting a call from them.

I don't expect to have everything in the end. Well maybe I did but still this may be my story but its still real life. I hugged everyone on the team. Val and Addy the tightest.

We rushed to the dressing rooms to change to our clothes after collecting our medals and cup. I ran our immediately I was done. Mom texted me where the cars were.

I hugged everyone for coming all over again. I even hugged Amy and that's a lot coming from me. I pulled Nathan aside and hugged him so tight.

"Cong......"

I cut him off with a kiss. Immediately he kissed me back and our mouths opened and our tongues played a game. I pulled him closer to me with my hands around his neck and his hand around my waist. The other grabbing my ass.

"Get a room." I heard Addy yell. I smiled and pulled away.

"Maybe we will." I whispered in Nathan's ear. He gave me a goofy smile and I pulled him with me to his car or his mom's car.

When we got to my house I saw decorations hung up and a party in full swing. "Why is there a party at my house?" I asked.

"A party to celebrate your victory." Nathan responded.

"What if I lost?" I asked.

"We all know the blonde cheerleader in this story doesn't loose anything." He gives me a side glance and smiles.

We go in and Gwen tells me the adults are going over to Seth's place. His dad is home and they all want catch up and give us privacy.

I take a bottle of wine up with me and pull Nathan to my room.

I take two cups from my drawer and fill them. "Drink up." I say to Nathan and down the cup.

When half of the bottle is gone I take off my shirt leaving only my bra. I pull off my sweat pants too and I'm left in my black pair. I sit on top of Nathan facing him and feel his partner in his pants poke me.

I look him in the eyes and kiss him like I've never kissed anyone before. He
holds me and takes off my bra. He seems like he doesn't know what to do so I take both of his hands and place on my boobs.

"You can move your hands you know. Or you can use your mouth too if your hands are shy." He goes red and looks down at them the places me on the bed. He takes off his sweater and jeans leaving only his briefs on. He stays on top of me and pulls my panties off.

He bends his head and smiles at me. He kisses my cunt and I moan and grab the sheets. He does it again and I moan his name. He kisses my lips teasingly and smirks at me. He goes back and puts his finger south. He moves it in and out and I know I'm wet for him. He kisses me there again tasting me and nods to me for permission before removing his briefs.

I nod and he pushes himself into me after putting on a condom. He moves in and out gently. He goes slow. He kisses my cheek and a tear escaped. I was just so happy.

"Did I hurt you baby?" He asks me. I shake my head pull him to me and kiss him. When I reach the highest peak I feel a contraction which has never happened before. I smiled at him and he kisses my head lays down at my side. Then I feel the liquid between my legs.

I wrap my hand around him and whisper, "I love you and I hope you still feel the same about this fucked up blonde cheerleader." After two weeks of realisation I finally said it.

He picks up my hand and murmurs." I loved you when I saw you were perfect but I loved you even more when I saw your flaws and imperfections. I love you Stephanie Vaughn even more than I love my hoodies and khakis." He kissed my finger.

At that time I saw the fireworks which were coming from my back yard. I had won in the end after all. I was in bed with my prince charming after securing a spot in the nationals and maybe even college.

So.....
My bad boy was my bad boy and bestfriend
The good girl became a friend
The best friend remained my best friend
The boy toy was a temporary friend with benefits
The nerd became my Prince Charming and I his cheerleader

I couldn't ask for more.
