I almost have a heart attack when someone suddenly grabs the arm that I was about to throw against the punching bag. So instead of punching the bag I end up punching that someone in the stomach on full blast.
I quickly turn around when I realise what I have done and only hear them let out a groan because of the pain I just caused them thanks to my powerful punch. Guilt fills me up immediately when I see Leo fold in half in front of me.
"What the fuck Magnolia !" He seethes out angrily, which immediately sets me on alert. I don't understand, I didn't even hear him come in the training room, it was just by instinct that I punched him.
"I am sorry, I-I really didn't mean to hurt you... you scared me" I apologise and step back a few steps to put distance between us. I don't know what he might do now that I attacked him. I unintentionally just gave him a reason to hurt me...
"It's fine, I know you didn't mean to. I shouldn't have scared you like that." He sympathetically says to my surprise and stands straight up again. He takes a deep breath in and shrugs off his pain like it was nothing. " Your punch was hella good though, well done. How did you learn to do that ?" He curiously asks me and the first lie that comes to my head is probably the dumbest thing ever.
"Youtube." Fucking great Magnolia, he is for sure going to believe that. Leo doesn't say anything to my response, except nodding his head and eying me once again. It's like he could see right through me and it wouldn't really wonder me especially with that brain of his.
I could clearly see in his features that he wasn't believing me, but fortunately he didn't push it further. Instead, he turns around and heads out of the room, leaving me confused for a second, before I hear him yell through the whole house that he found me. Seconds later he comes back, accompanied by the sound of multiple foot steps hitting the floor to come in our direction.
Behind the second oldest brother appear Blake, Damon and Elijah. They all have that relieved look on their faces and to my surprise Blake immediately comes towards me to bring me in a tight hug.
"Don't. Ever. Do. That. Again." He whispers in my ear, putting a pause between each word.What the hell did I do wrong? I simply stayed here the entire time. " I though I lost you... I can not go through that again." he says those last words harshly, before pulling away to look me in the eyes. His were filled with pain and anger, when mine were probably laced with confusion and fear for what would happen next. I tare my eyes away from his to see all the stares from the guys, including Greyson and Ethan who just now appeared at the door of the gym.
"Magnolia we told you to inform and ask at least one of us if you ever decide to go somewhere. I made that rule very clear." Damon harshly snaps at me, before coming towards me to forcefully grab my hand. I try to back away at his sudden behaviour, but I have no chance as my wrist is captured in his strong grip.
