"What the fuck?"
I looked around the place and it was just a big crowd of people drinking and dancing. While others would hop in the ring and beat each other. Orion and Tristan moved beside me one on each side. "So, what you think princess?" I looked at Orion and then I turned and looked back at the ring. "Not to brag but this is my type of scenery. Do any girls get into the ring?"
They all looked at me wide eyed and eyebrows raised. "What? You thought I was just some girl that sat around all day and didn't get into any trouble?" I couldn't help but laugh at their faces. They seriously thought because I was a female that I wouldn't be into something like this.
"Well, they normally only have one female fighter, but she fights with the guys here. She is dangerous though." I smiled and looked at Tristan. "Set me up I haven't had a good fight in a while." He looked at me like as if I've grown two heads. "What are you waiting for? Go"
I looked at Orion and that was the worst thing to do he was looking at me like he was trying to figure me out. I don't want no one to know my past secrets at least not yet. Tristan came back and told me that they would be ready for me in thirty minutes.
I looked around excited just to have Orion grab me and pull me to the side. "You can't just fight someone you've never saw fight before. I mean are you that crazy." I smirked at him and pulled away from him. "Then call me crazy Oreo because I am that crazy."
I moved away from him and went up to ring waiting on them to call me up. I haven't had an adrenaline rush in a long time. I can't wait to get some of this stress and anger out.
The announcer finally announced my name, and I climbed into the ring. I couldn't help the rush of excitement run through me. I cleared my head and got ready to get into fight mode when I felt a hand grab my ankle. I looked down from the ring and Orion looked at me with pleading eyes and all I cloud do was roll mine.
The fight lasted three minutes. That's right three, I couldn't help myself from jumping around so excited from the rush that I just went through. Tristan congratulated me while the other two asked me constantly if I was okay regardless of me just winning the fight. Yes, she got one hit in but that's because that's how I like to play. You hit me first I knock you out.
Tristan took us to the bar and asked if I wanted to have a drink. Before I could even get the word yes out of my mouth Orion grabbed my wrist and took me outside. He looked so pissed but I don't understand why.
"Okay I know I said that you said that you were crazy, but you can't be doing that Lilly." He ran his fingers through his hair while pacing looking like a mad man. "I mean you have one hell of a punch but what if something bad happened. What if you got badly hurt. What if-" I held my hand up in his face. "Let me stop you right there. I agree with you to a certain extent but, what if I didn't get hurt what if I knew what I was doing. What then?"
He kept opening and closing his mouth to find the words that wouldn't come out of his mouth. He started stepping towards me and before I knew it, I was backed into the wall. "Then explain, how do you know what you were doing? How did you not get hurt? And most importantly, why didn't you mention that you were a fighter before you got into the ring?"
I gasped at how close he had gotten with his rant that I couldn't help but notice there was hardly any space between us. "Well, are you going to answer Lilly?" He said as he raised his arms on each side of my head caging me in. That's when it all came back to me that he sees me as weak. He doesn't see that I had won and be proud of me.
"First off, you don't know my life nor my story. Second, it's my choice what I do in life so if I want to fight someone at the spur of the moment then I can without having to explain the how and why. Third, Leave. Me. The. Fuck. Alone." I pushed aways from him and went to go back inside.
Even if he was pissed at my answer I didn't care. I can't have him know my past yet it's way to soon. Damien already knows one secret. I don't need anyone else knowing anything else just yet.
Once I get back inside Tristan is tipsy and Damien is basically playing babysitter. I went to go order a drink to calm my nerves when Orion orders us all to leave due to it being way past curfew, but I knew in the back of my mind it wasn't because of that.
Once we get back to our dorm, Damien opens the window and Orion climbs in first helping me and then Tristan inside. I look around the room and everything is left as it was when we left. I looked over at Orion to see if he's calmed down to see him taking his shirt off.
I gasped and turned around facing my bed shocked at seeing his toned stomach. I hear a round of chuckles. "What princess you didn't think that we would spare you all cause you're a girl did you?" I rolled my eyes even though he couldn't see and went into my stuff and grabbed clothes for the night.
After my shower I got dressed and ready for bed. When I walked out, I saw the lights were off, so I knew that the boys have went to bed. As I laid down to close my eyes the last thought that hit me was. Why was Orion asking all of those questions? Was it because he cares even after just meeting me or was it simply cause that's just who he is, nosey.
