Battles In Life

24

Once again waking up in the arms of Lochie I grinned. I love being in his arms he makes me happy, really happy. I don't think I have felt like this ever. even before my ex did what he did. I must've rolled over through the night, it seems one of us always does but by the way I'm positioned I'd say I did. Pressing a light kiss the lochies torso he moved making me smile. Doing it again Lochie spoke "mmm good morning" "good morning, sleep well?" "I woke up even better" I grinned "good". As I went to roll over Lochie, did the same hovering over me "where are you going?" "I was going to get up?" "Hmm I have a better idea" "and what's that?" Lochie pressed his lips to mine entwining our tongues as his hand wandered over my body and down my side. "Mmm I can't get enough of you" and I couldn't get enough of him but I don't know if I am game enough to say that.
"You better get that" "argh yeah I suppose I better".

"Alexander what can I do for you today?...
Oh well I honestly don't believe she will...
I know...
All I can do is ask...
Hmm no one else?...
Okay I will give it my best shot...
Lochie chuckled. Okay I will speak with you soon have a great day".
Lochie put his phone down on the beside table but didn't lay back down again.
"Lochie is everything okay?" "Ahh sort of" "i know it was alexander but what's the problem?" "He wants you" "what?" I sat up just waiting for Lochie to talk.
"He wants you and only you to model his urban style clothing" "Lochie I can't do that" "he's adamant that he won't change his mind" I just shook my head "I'm going to go for a shower" "dana" I heard him sigh as I closed the door to the bathroom.

I can't be a model, I'm not model material.
I also can't put myself out there like that, I'm not comfortable enough and I don't want to be found. I don't know if they are looking for me but I don't want to take the risk.
I'm quite happy with my quiet life, no one knows who I am or where I am. I know Lochie has a business to run and alexander works with him, well sort of but I don't think I can ever be involved in that.
"Dana I'm going" "okay".
I didn't know what else to say, I just stayed in the shower until I relaxed.

Lochie

"Alexander what can I do for you today"
"I want dana for my new urban style collection" "Oh well I honestly don't believe she will" "mr hernandez we have always done good business" "i know" "you can make it happen I have all faith in you" "All I can do is ask" "I do not want anyone else to wear those pieces" "Hmm no one else?" "No" "Okay I will give it my best shot" "oh I know you will you spunky man" i chuckled "okay I will speak with you soon have a great day". Putting my phone down I just sat with my back facing dana.
"Lochie is everything okay?" "Ahh sort of" "i know it was alexander but what's the problem?" "He wants you" "what?" I already knew by her answer she wasn't going to do it.
"He wants you and only you to model his urban style clothing" "Lochie I can't do that" "he's adamant that he won't change his mind".
"I'm going to go for a shower" "dana" I sighed as i heard the bathroom door shut.
Well that went well. What the hell am I going to do. He wants me personally to show his new line in my up and coming magazine. Running my hands over my face in frustration I stood up. I need to go to work to try figure something out. I don't want to piss off alexander, we do good business.
"Dana I'm going" "okay" hmm I'm guessing she is thinking. Hopefully I can change her mind.

After getting dressed I headed to work.
"Morning Mr hernandez" "morning sandy" "can I get you anything?" "A coffee thanks sandy" "no problem, I will bring it to you shortly".
Sitting at my desk, there was a knock at my door. "Come in" heather walked in.
"Good morning Lochie" "morning how's everything going in the studio" "good all the new pieces have arrived. Adam and brandy will be in soon" "yeah". Heather took a seat in front of me, on the other side of my desk. "Is there a problem?" "Yes a massive one" "well fill me and maybe we can figure It out" I shook my head. "Alexander only wants one person showing off his new line" "that's not a problem" "yes it is, he wants dana but she won't do it" "that's a bit of a problem" "yeah" "will he not change his mind? I'm sure we have a model here who will be able to pull off that style" "no hes adamant he only wants her and we know what he is like" "are you sure you can't change her mind" "I don't know she didn't seem too happy about it this morning".

"Come in" the door opened and sandy walked in with my coffee "thanks sandy" "you are welcome. heather would you like a coffee?" "No thank you" sandy nodded.

"What are you going to do Lochie?" "I don't know heather I can't mess this up" "I know".
Hearing another knock I spoke.
"Come in" "adam belstro is here" I nodded "we'll be out in a minute thanks sandy".
"Well let's go see this collection and see what we have for adam" "alright, we'll also have to inform brandy" "yeah I know".

Dana

Getting to jiu jitsu corey was already waiting for me in the training room.
"Morning dana" "morning corey how are you?" "Good you?" "Yeah alright ready to train" "is something bothering you?" "No I'm fine" he nodded but I don't think he believed what I had said but I don't either.
"Okay, I'm going to teach you how to do a rear naked choke" "alright. where do I start?" "On your back. This move can be done by being on your back or standing up but it works better on the ground" I nodded.
I laid down on the ground, just waiting.
"I'm only going to do this lightly as it can send you to sleep if I do it firmly" "okay".
Corey wrapped one of his arms under my throat, Using the same, hand he grabbed his other arm at the elbow and put his other arm under my head. I could already feel the pressure before he pulled away. "Got that?" "Yeah" doing it as I thought he showed me he told me to stop. "Sorry" "this is not going to work if your mind isn't clear, come take a seat on the mat".
"Okay something is definitely bothering you your mind is not on your session so what's going on?" "You know who alexander drays is?" "Yes" "he wants me to model his urban style clothing line, he told Lochie he wants no one else but I can't do it and I know I will let Lochie down if I don't" "dana why don't you want to do it?, You are a nice looking woman" "the exposure" "you don't like the cameras?" "That and I'm not experienced as a model, I'm not model material and I don't want my past to find me if they are looking for me" "you speak down about yourself and I wouldn't worry about your past just focus on your future" "I can't do it corey" "have you told Lochie that?" "Yes but I know it's going to make his job hard" "probably" I just shook my head. "Look. just do what's best for you" "and what about your brother he has done so much for me" "no he hasn't. he has already told me you won't let him do anything for you" "he has been there for me and that's plenty" corey nodded "is there anything else bothering you?" "No" "good now let's try again" "thanks Corey" he nodded.
Trying the move again corey grinned "well done".

After my session had finished, I said good bye to corey telling him I will see him Monday and I headed straight back to my apartment. I enjoy my sessions with corey, he's not only a great instructor he is also good to talk to.
Locking my door, I turned my music on loud knowing Lochie wouldn't be home so it won't bother him and headed for another shower.
I've gotten a lot more fit and don't sweat as much but I still sweat a little under my clothes and I hate the feeling, I like to feel refreshed.
Standing under the hot water, my body relaxed and all I wanted to do was sleep.
Getting out of the shower, I chucked on some clothes and made myself some food.
After eating I headed to my spare room turning my work phone off and headed to my bedroom and laid down on the bed.
As soon as I laid down my eyes started to feel heavy and I closed them.
