I growl at the challenge and nod eagerly, getting ready to fight.

I take a couple steps back and get into a fighting stance. Cracking my neck, I pop my shoulders and stretch out my arms. It feels nice to stretch out like this. Sighing I look up at Elijah as he copies my movement.

I notice that everyone around us has left, so it's basically me Elijah, Stephan, Jeff and Jan.

Good, now they can see me beat his ass. I muffle a laugh as adrenaline rushes through my veins.

Elijah takes a couple threatening steps towards me and growls under his breath,
"Would you like to shift Jess? It would make things so much easier."

"No I'm okay Eli, I think I can handle myself" I reply sarcastically.

He scoffs and takes off his shirt, giving me a perfect view of his bronze chest. I swear I felt some drool on the side of my mouth as I start to get hot all over. Damn, just him taking off his shirt is doing things to me.

"Don't hurt yourself Jess" he warns charging at me. I don't even have time to respond before I take a hit right into my stomach.

Fuck, he's definitely not going easy.

Stumbling back I clutch my stomach and hiss in pain, as I was not expecting that. Regaining my balance I throw a punch to his face, knocking him right in the jaw. He doesn't even flinch, just grunts as his head moves to the side. I go to punch him again, but this time he grabs my hand and twists it. Knocking my feet, he pins me to the ground and smashes me into the dirt as my arm is pulled back in his grip.

This gives me time to think about his absence, what he's done with Tiffany. Probably loving her, touching her, the way I'm supposed to be touched and loved.

I growl loudly as the image of him and Tiffany kissing pops into my thoughts. I throw back my head hitting him right in the nose. He groans and stumbles back, I take the time to get up quickly and grab his head, bringing it up to my knee I slam his forehead against it. This time he curses out loud.

I use his pain to take him to the ground as he had done with me, this time wrapping my hand around his throat, I put pressure on it and get close to his face.

"Did you have a nice time" I say harshly, hopefully getting the message across.

He chuckles so darkly, it gave me goosebumps. I cower away slightly as an evil smile appears on his face.

"I had the nicest time."

I punch him in the face again while he grabs me and throws me off of him. Getting up, he growls loudly and tugs my hips towards him. What I didn't expect was for him to smash our foreheads together.

A dizzying pain shoots up my skull from the impact. I open my eyes and see a slightly blurry Elijah. Shaking my head, I can see him better now and use my arm to elbow him in the ribs, near the gut, than taking an uppercut to the face he stumbles down.

"I bet you had a great time Elijah, just leaving me here like this, with no explanation" I yell at him. Not bothering with the blood on his face, he stands up and walks to me.

"I bet you had a great time fucking her, while I was here, not having a God damn clue where you were!"

His eyes darken, "Don't use that kind of language Jessica, we are adults, we can speak normally."
