Good Girl Gone Bad

04-Just a visit

I woke up I'm a dark room, curtains closed, lights off and silence. Everyone probably left for school and work. After watching anime for the entire morning I decided to brush my teeth and get coffee. I walked downstairs with my earphones in, music blasting. I made my coffee and went back to my room, the sun was up but my room still seemed dark...darker than the rest of the house.

I sat by my desk and pulled out the box filled with Lorenzo's things. My eyes fell on his ring again, I proceeded to picking it up and reading the engraving, her man forever, he lied...he left me. I felt the tears falling down my face, fuck!

I need to pull myself together, I decided to head to the gym. I quickly grabbed my things and went to the gym, punching my pain away was always the way I worked through my pain. Before I knew it my knuckles were bleeding, but I kept going, I kept punching, harder, more power.

*gym door opens*

"Ivy! What the fuck?! Stop! Ivy! Breathe! Stop! Your bleeding! Ivy!" Shouted Kio

He pulled me into his arms and held me, pulling me away from the punching bag, he pulled me so tightly into his arms that I couldn't move. I started crying again, the tears just kept coming.

"It's going to be okay." He said as he rubbed my back

"I got you." He said

We just sat in each other's embrace as I cried, he never once tried to get me to explain myself, he never even tried to understand, he just accepted me and let me deal with it as he held me.

"Thank you." I said as I wiped my face

I pulled away and looked up at him and he looked down at me with a smile, his eyes were starting directly at mine, his smile was so soft, he reminds me of Lorenzo...that smile.

"How about we go ice skating?" He said

I was surprised by his idea because everyone thinks Niko loves ice skating more than me but in secret I love it...I just don't want to compete, I want to skate when no ones looking...when I'm free and alone. I love skating when it's just for me.

"Sure." I said

He wiped my tears away and pulled me up from the ground. His hand was warm and made me feel safe...what is this weird feeling. I don't know if I trust him yet but I want to understand him. Mama always says if they are kind make sure they are being genuine not fake...so which is he?

I quickly took a shower and got into something more comfortable then met Kio in the front of the house, everyone was at the base training so I left a note of the fridge.

"Why are you doing this?" I asked as we put our skates on.

"Well you seem different from all the other girls, after all you haven't made any attempt at getting my number. I want to figure you out." He said

"Well sorry to disappoint you but that will never happen as long as I'm alive. So I advice you to find a better conquest." I said as I got onto the ice

I stared to skate, gliding on the ice, then a jump, perfect landing, yes! I felt myself getting absorbed in the feeling of the wind around me, the air moving fast, the fresh icy air going into my lungs...everything was perfect.

All of a sudden I felt arms wrap around me. I know it's Kio because I don't feel worried, I feel relaxed and safe.

"You see, you're really interesting...seems like you are some untouchable person. It's like you are so many levels above all of us and we are all trying to climb to get you but you keep going higher." He said
