The Last Martians

No Rules, No Mercy Part 10

Annamaria received confirmation of her next fight the day after Melanie's fight. As Christie told her, they scheduled her to fight Valentina the next day. But the message did not mention the rules for the fight. The news excited her. Valentina cheated in order to beat Melanie up. Annamaria now had a chance to revenge her friend's loss. And she intended to take full revenge. After she read the message, she headed to the hospital. To her relief, the nurses allowed her a few minutes with Melanie. The Brunette's face was swollen and blue and black all over. But she still managed a smile.

'I thought you gave up on our friendship because I lost my fight.'

'I will never give up on our friendship.' Annamaria knew her friend was joking, but she still wanted to reassure her. 'How are they treating you here?'

'I think one of the nurses is in love with me. She keeps telling me how hot the cuts make me look. That also explains why they want to keep me here for two or three more days.'

'I will fight her for you.' The green-eyed beauty said this before thinking. She was relieved when her friend took it as a joke.

'When is your next fight?'

'Tomorrow.'

'Aww. I won't be able to be in your corner. Will you still fight topless for me? It will give me something to keep my mind busy tomorrow.'

'I will fight topless for you. Anyway, I enjoy fighting topless.'

'Me too. Who are you fighting?'

'Valentina. The woman who beat you up. I will destroy her for you.'

'Don't go into the fight with your emotions running wild. Fight for yourself. After you have beaten her, you can think of me again.'

'I always think of you.' This also slipped out.

This time Melanie did not laugh. 'Are you falling in love with me?'

'I think so. Our night together was the best night of my life. I want to be with you. Do you feel the same?'

The brunette's face said it all. She looked guilty and sad. You know I love you. But I was just having fun with you. I would love to sleep with you again, but I do not want a relationship with you, or anybody else at the moment. But you will always be my best friend. I hope you understand.'

'Off course I do.' Annamaria tried to smile, but she could not hide the sadness in her eyes.

Suddenly, she did not know what to say next. Luckily, a nurse popped her head through the door.

'It is time to go. Your lovely friend needs her rest.'

The friends hugged each other awkwardly.

'Good luck with your fight.'

'Thank you.'

Annamaria's heart was broken. She did not realise how much she was falling in love with Melanie until her friend made it clear she only wanted to be friends. The sweet taste of the Martian Sunset she was sipping hardly registered with her. Unlike the rest of the crowd, the two sexy women sexfighting each other did not turn her on. She came to Aphrodite's Arena to distract her from thinking about Melanie and to find a woman to sleep with. The first portion did not work. Instead of enjoying the two beautiful young bodies competing with each other for sexual domination, she was trying to figure out why her best friend did not want to be in a relationship with her. Although she still thought sleeping with somebody would make her feel better, she was not actively looking for a lusty woman to seduce. Instead, she was staring through the two sexfighters into a dark hole which was sucking all joy and happiness into it.
