Numero Uno

I walked in, a bit nervous. OKAY, who was I kidding I was almost convulsing over here I was so scared. I proceeded to my coach; Mackenna's office. I tapped on the door slightly. "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" she yelled. "Its just me, rae." "oh, well come in then." If that didn't hint around it enough for you, let me just tell you flat out; Mackenna is a bitch. I suppose I couldn't do much about it though considering she was the team leader and all. Anyways, back to where we were. I sat down. Mackenna fumbled through some boxes, turned around and basically threw a pile of goldish, black, and white colored clothes at me. "Here is your uniform, your locker number is 851. Hurry and go get changed already! We don't want you to be late on your first day of practice." she looked at me devilishly. I just wanted to slap that smirk off her face. I got up and walked to the locker room. Alright, you are probably wondering who I am and what I do. My name is Rae and I'm 18 years old. I've been dancing since as long as I can remember. Recently I got a letter in the mail asking me to join the pittsburgh penguin's dance team. I accepted it Immediately, not only was it my dream job but I totally love hockey. So, I walked down to the locker room and quickly threw on my outfit(damn, did I look like a hoe and I wasn't complaining.) I walked into the practice room filled with about 10 other girls. Suddenly Mackenna stormed in. "Okay ladies, we are practicing out on the ice today, just so you can get used to it for the games. You better be fast learners or you might want to think about quiting. She shot me a quick glance as soon as she said that. Thank God I wasn't the only new girl. Soon enough I met Eliegh, Aundrea, and Rylee. "Holy fuck, it's freezing" I mumbled as soon as we walked on to the ice. "Acting like a little pussy already are we?" Mackenna said to me while skating by. "No, I think you already have that spot taken." Now see that wasn't the smartest thing to say to my team leader but, I was brought up to not take shit from anyone. "WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME?!" "Did I stutter?!" "DO YOU WANT THIS JOB?!" Before I could reply I felt someones arms around my waist pulling me back, I looked over at Mackenna and someone had done the same to her. Maybe that was for the best, because I didn't want to have to knock out my coach on the first day of practice. I hadn't realized it but, the whole penguin's team was out on the ice watching us, to my embarassment. I turned around and standing there was Jordan Staal.
