Tina who had been watching the whole thing bit her lip and sheepishly looked at her shoes.

Homecoming week went by in a blur. The school would go all out in turning the school into a circus by hosting spirit day where the students would dress up according to the dress code provided and having various competitions set up around the school. The Freshmen versus Sophomore tug-of-war was probably the funniest thing the school’s ever seen.

On Pajama Monday, a lot of students involuntarily participated since most students were too lazy to change from a hectic Sunday night.

 On Battle of the Sexes Tuesday, the girls were required to wear red and the boys blue. Girls won of course.

On Rockstar Wednesday, Shane had a blast doing most people’s hairs into mohawks and fauxhawks.

On Tropical Thursday, Alice had a lot of fun checking out Dana in her short and sexy grass skirt.

On Friday, students were required to wear the school’s colors (red, black, and/or white). The cheerleaders came to school in their uniforms causing happy males (and a happy Bette).

Classes were cut short that day to make room for the pep assembly in the gymnasium. Each grade was assigned an area to sit in the gym. The seniors had the most pride by looking like a sea of red, black, and white at a first glane. The principal gave a long-drawn speech of the school’s history. Then the senior class officers announced the winners of the weekly games. Following tradition, everyone laughed at how the freshmens lost every event. Then, the cheerleaders did a very very very sexy routine to pump up the crowd. (Bette moved up front to get a better view). Then, there was a slidshow of the fall sports like cross country, football, and girls’ soccer to recognize the athletes. Saving the best for last, the principal got up to the podium and announced the winners of Homecoming Court.

Bette was sweating bullets by now, stealing glances at Tina, sitting two rows in front, who had her fingers crossed. ‘Please don’t make her win.’

The votes went like this, the teachers would sort out the votes and create a list of the six girls and six boys that got the most votes for each grade. In homeroom, the students would vote again from that list. The teachers had to count those votes for the winners. The staff was secretive about the whole thing making sure that the winners were suprised.
