Katie looked at her friend strangely. Suzanne had given in awfully quickly... for her, anyway. There had to be a reason why.

So what was it?

Chapter 9

“Okay, team, it’s time to crush the competition!” Coach Debbie shouted as the track team gathered on the field. Of course, she was only talking to the few kids who were actually competing. She pretty much ignored the rest of them.

Suddenly, Suzanne raced onto the field.

“Wow!” Emma exclaimed, looking at Suzanne.

“What’s she supposed to be?” a fifth-grader named Sophie asked.

Katie looked at her friend. Suzanne was wearing a bright red and white sweater and a short red skirt. And she was carrying red and white pom-poms. Suzanne was a cheerleader!

“Go, team! Go, team!” Suzanne shouted.

“Where did you find that uniform?” a sixth-grader named Lauren asked her.

“At the mall. It’s red and white... our school colors.”

“I didn’t know we had school colors,” George said.

“We do now,” Suzanne told him. She shook her pom-poms right in his face.

Katie laughed. Now she knew why Suzanne had been so happy to be a cheerleader instead of a runner. She was getting more attention this way. Suzanne loved attention.

“We’ve got that spirit!” Suzanne cheered. “Come on, let’s hear it.”

But Coach Debbie wasn’t thinking about school spirit. She had only one thing on her mind. “We’ve got to WIN! WIN! WIN!” she shouted to the team. “Do whatever it takes. Just win!”
