The MMA world is very competitive and not only in the cage. A guy and girl, from two rival families, fall for each other just like a modern day Romeo and Juliet. Will they have a fighting chance to make a relationship work? Or will it end in complet...
I was kind of glad Demi's phone rang when we were in my bedroom. I was about to make a fool of myself & tell her that even though my house may not look like much, I was going to be rich one day. Not to mention, I had an overwhelming urge to kiss her. I know she's my PT, but I could not help how I felt. I would have been shot down I'm sure. She didn't want us to cross that line. I just didn't know if it was because I was her client or because I was a fighter or because I was poor.
I tried to stay in one spot during the party because having a leg that doesn't bend & can't have weight on it, isn't exactly ideal for a party. Especially when everyone at the party was shit faced drunk or high as fuck. I found a spot to sit in the front yard. I sat on the picnic table bench with my leg toward the bushes, so no one was tripping over it. Demi's friend, Michelle, was sitting on Jay's lap & I was watching them in amusement. They were hitting it off & it kind of baffled me. Demi was so classy & had her shit together. Michelle seemed like she was a little edgier & maybe didn't always make the best choices.
"Demi has no idea what she's missing." Michelle said as she took a selfie of her & Jay. A moment later, she came to sit next to me & put her head close to mine. "Make it good because I am sending this to Demi. I'm gonna put that she doesn't know what she's missing." Michelle held her phone up & took a picture of us. She looked at the picture & then turned to give me a dirty look. "You stuck your lip out. It looks like you're not having fun." Michelle said, lightly smacking my arm.
I laughed. "It was supposed to be like I missed her."
"Oh." Michelle chuckled, bringing her shoulder up a little. "That's kinda cute then." She took another picture of us but this time I did my best impression of the Rock, one eyebrow raised. Girls always loved it when I did this, like it was a rarity. Michelle seemed to like that photo because she giggled as she texted something to Demi. Turning to me, Michelle twisted her mouth a little & narrowed her eyes. "You like her don't you?"
I made a face like she was absurd & took a drink of my beer. "What?" I let out a nervous laugh. "I mean I like her. It kinda makes it easier, since she's my PT & I'll be working with her closely for several months." I took another drink of my beer & Michelle nodded, slowly, looking at me sideways. "We're keeping things professional." I added with a chuckle.
"She was at your party." Michelle said, leaning forward a little to give me a look that said she didn't believe what I was telling her.

"Okay, so we're becoming friends." I shrugged my shoulders.
"Mmmm hmm." Michelle turned her gaze away from me & swallowed the rest of her beer. "You find her attractive don't you?"
"She's pretty." I smiled, shrugging. "I get the impression that she doesn't date fighters though."
Michelle looked away, like she knew something but couldn't tell me. "So.... does Jay have a girlfriend?"
