I Am So Not Jenna

Chapter 9 - Sparring

The teenagers had been up almost all night playing video games, both boys deciding to stay in and continue playing. Elena went over to Bonnies house again for the weekend. After discussing it with Tyler's mom we determined that he could stay over for the weekend. Making sure to put on a comfortable outfit for sparring I get ready to go to the Mayors house. I need someone to keep practice with for a bit anyway and the vampires would take it easy on me.

When I got outside Damon was standing beside my car with his arms crossed over his chest watching me. "I told you I was coming with didn't I?

"Yes, you did. Just get in the car Damon."

He does without question as I get in and playfully retorts. "Bossy, I like it." Then he gives the inside of the car a once over and shrugs. "This car is pretty spacious."

"It is." I agree with a nod. "So why did you insist on coming along anyway?"

"Because I wanted to." Damon says as he wiggles his eyebrows as he checks me out. "It'll be fun to watch you fight in that though. Very sexy. Although, the turtle neck confuses me. The mayor might just have a heart attack."

I chuckle in amusement, grinning at him widely. "Ha, I wish. I hate that prick. So, I'm resigned to simply kicking his ass since I can't just kill him."

He snorts and mutters just loud enough for me to hear. "Maybe I'll just kill him for you."

"Aw." I retort, winking at him playfully as I pay him on the cheek. "It's almost sweet of you to offer. But if I decide to kill someone then I'll just do it myself." Like I did Logan Fell.

When we got to the Lockwood mansion/house there was only one truck outside. After knocking on the door the Mayor lets us in. The Mayor looks at Damon with a frown as he leads us to the backyard.

"I was kind of hoping for it to end up being a date." Mayor Lockwood says sounding disappointed.

"You do recall that you're a married man right?" I ask him with a raised eyebrow. "Because if by chance you're having bouts of amnesia then we'll just take you to a doctor. Besides, I told you that I wanted to spar. I'm not interested in your dick. If you're too chicken then I'll just leave."

His face twists into a look of anger and annoyance before he clenched his hands tightly and nods. "Fine. We'll spar then. Why is he here?"

"Use your brain and think about that question for a minute." Damon replies dryly as he shakes his head.

After a minute of silence goes by with them glaring at each other Damon answers with a deadpan. "I don't trust you. Obviously."

"We haven't even started fighting yet and you need a chaperone?" The mayor asks me in mocking amusement. "Perhaps you're not so tough after all."

"He's just here to make sure I don't accidentally kill you on purpose."

"How about we fight then? After I beat you then I'll fight him." The mayor replies angrily as his temper flares up.

Rolling my eyes I sigh. "Well? What are you waiting for tough guy? Come and kick my sassy ass."

He charges at me with his fist raised and I side step him. Then when he turns, lifting his arm to punch me I lift my own, blocking his hit and I smoothly step to the side. Next he tries to kick me but I block that as well and flip him to the floor. Taking a step back I wait for him to stand back up again, which he does. Again he rushes at me, catching his arms I push him back only for him to stumble a moment and then right himself.

Lunging at me he knocks me down with his momentum, landing on top of me. For a second my breathe was knocked out of me, quickly head-butting him he screams and scrambles off me and begins to blindly swing his punches at me, gripping his arm I yank him forward harshly and then trip him. Putting his arms behind his back I push him into the floor.
