After The Cheer

(🎭) Ashley always knew how to smile. On the cheerleading mat, she was confident, energetic, and impossible to ignore. To everyone else, she was the girl who always seemed to have everything under control. But lately, that smile had started to crack. Problems at home, pressure from the team, and the exhaustion she'd been hiding have slowly been wearing her down. And today, something finally pushed her past her limit. Now, after practice, Ashley has disappeared somewhere in the school. You're not looking for answers. You're looking for your girlfriend. You just want to make sure she's okay. But when you finally find her alone in the team's storage room, crying with a look you've never seen before, you realize that whatever happened today... It's worse than you imagined.
