I punched the red sandbag in a steady rhythm. My wrapped knuckles hit the leather hard, expelling small grunts with each blow. I can feel my body heat rising but I've hardly broken a sweat yet.

Luca walks up to me and holds the bag as I punch a few more times.

"Ready to spar?" he asked.

"Sure," I panted, my heart slightly elevated from my warm up.

We both head straight to an empty ring and climb in through the ropes. Sporting an attack stance, we start to throw punches at each other. Luca and I have been sparring together since the days I started my training. With my father nearing the point of retirement, I've been given more responsibilities, and finding time for our little match has gotten harder and harder. Now, we make a point to try to find time at least once a week to spar together. Luca is like a brother to me and our little weekly brawl has become a bit of a bonding time for both of us.

"Your punches feel a bit sloppy today, is Capri tiring you up?" he asked teasingly.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." I denied then throws a right hook at him which he swiftly avoided.

"So, is she your regular girl now?" He throws a left jab followed by a right cross and then a left hook. He caught me off guard but I managed to put up my hands in time as I tried to block his series of punches.

"What do you mean?" I know what he meant but I feign innocence. Is Capri really my regular girl? Well, we do fuck regularly but unlike other girls, I actually find her company enjoyable, even when we're not busy getting frisky.

"Well, I haven't seen Natalie around for a while. She seems like the only one you're screwing these days."

I threw my right hook but I knew it was weak. Luca got me distracted, all right. I tried to think back on what he said. Ever since the night at the club, have I not fuck anyone else other than Capri? It has only been two weeks, but my regular two weeks normally consist of at least three or four different girls rotations. Did I actually stick to only one-.

"Is she really that good?" Luca's left jab hit me in the chin, interrupting my thoughts.

"What? No... I don't know" I mumbled the last three words as I tried to shake off the sting. Is that why I haven't sought others? Is she better than others? I can't say I know how to compare. Yes, she makes things interesting. When we're together, it feels fresh and exciting. But it's only been two weeks, and we've sort of agreed to keep things light.

"I know you told everyone she's off limits. And, you've never had a steady girl before."

"What are you trying to say, Luca?" Our feet lightly dance around the ring together. Trying to anticipate each other's next move.
