Jonathan slams his hand on his alarm clock and rolls around in his bed. His forearms ache from the previous day. He never expected Rock Climbing to be so hard on his muscles but he knows he'll get used to the pain after some time. He drags himself out of bed and changes into some sports clothes. He grabs a duffle bag and stuffs his school uniform in it and grabs his school bag.

Once he finally arrives at the gym, the sun is shining brightly above, seeping in through the glass windows above. He can see a few faint figures of people chatting amongst themselves from inside. Jonathan gulps and heads on inside. He greets Beckham with a smile and gets handed a pair of rental climbing shoes. He notices the group is small, containing six people. Four boys and two girls. They all look friendly except one of them (he just looks exhausted).

Jonathan follows Beckham to the group and stands awkwardly beside the coach. Beckham fake coughs to lure everyone's attention towards him. "Good morning everyone. As you know, we are getting a new member in the team. This is Jonathan. He isn't as good as you all, but he has hidden potential. Please give him a warm welcome."

Scattered hello's come from in the circle. Beckham looks down at Jonathan and back up. "Calum, can you show Jonathan to the locker room?"

"Yeah, sure," the brown haired boy replies with a smile.

He leads the other to a separate room were the walls are layered with lockers and benches sit in the middle of the room. Jonathan picks a random locker and stuffs his bag inside before returning to the group with Calum.

"We're starting our stretches now," Backham says. The group all begin stretching from the bottom up.

"Hey, I'm Asher. Nice to meet cha," A boy with choppy light blue hair says.

"Hi. I'm Jonathan. Nice to meet you," he responds with a small smile.

"Have I seen you around school? You look familiar."

"Depends. What school do you go to?"

"I go to Anayo public school. You?"

"I go to the same school. I'm in year 10."

"Same here."

The two boys stretch in silence.

"You aren't that flexible, I see," Asher teases.

Jonathan blushes and looks at the black foam mats. "I know."

"Ok everyone, listen up. We're going to be doing endurance. Get hooked up to a rope. We're doing five minutes of laps," Beckham says loudly.

"What are laps?" Jonathan asks Asher.

Before the other could reply, Calum speaks. "Laps are climbing up and down the wall. Because we're doing it for five minutes, then you have to continue it for five minutes without breaks."

"Uh, thanks," Jonathan replies.

"No problem."

Jonathan walks towards an easy looking climb and unclips the climbing anchors off the blue triangle mat thing and into his harness. He prepares himself to climb and waits for the signal to begin.

"Begin!" Beckham shouts.

Ended on such a cliffhanger
