Not Always A Happy Ending

Chapter Three - Cole

Chapter Three - Cole
Katana's POV

"UGGHH!!!" I groaned as I got out of bed. When I opened my eyes I realized I was at JayLeen's house just not in her room. I was in Cole's room, just no Cole in sight. I get up and my everything is sore all over again. Its like when you are not in shape at all and then you do a body builders work out and literally everything hurt. 

I go to his attached bathroom and looked into the body mirror. I realized I wasn't in my own cloths, I was in a pair of Cole's sweat pants that where dark blue and white plaid and then one of JayLeen's light tan tank tops. I had some bruises on my shoulders and on my arms a bit. When I lift up my shirt my stomach is full of dark bruises. My face has some cuts here and there and then some light bruises. Nothing too serious or that won't heal up in the next couple of days unlike my stomach.

I go to the kitchen to get some water and some possible food since I never got to eat dinner last night. When I walk into the living room I can smell food being made and can hear the pots being moved around. When I walking into the kitchen I was surprised. Cole was standing in front of the stove making breakfast. He had a matching pair of the sweat pants I had on but they where lower on his waist and he had no shirt on. I stared at his back for a moment watching his muscles move and then I went to sit on the counter happily making no noises even as my muscles scream in pain.

Not long after I have been sitting there Cole turns around with the pan of eggs in his hands. " Oh hey beautiful. How are you this morning?" He asked. Cole and I have been on and off for the past couple of years but we never lasted long and we always just ended up being friends after. We where always better as friends " Everything hurts." I say with a fake pouty face. Cole smiles a bright smile and laughs a bit. He's always been a morning person. Me on the other hand am way more sociable and just plan on like night better. I always loved the moon. I have no explanation for it either I just do. I am way more calm at night when I can see the moon. "I figured since it has been a while since you had been in a fight." He says putting the eggs on a plate and then grabs the bacon out of the fridge yelling, "Think fast!" as he throws a water bottle at me.I catch it easily and immediately opens it and gulps down half of the bottle. " Thank you." I tell him when I am done drinking the water and wiping my mouth incase of access water. " Welcome." He says. I put the bottle next to me and jump off the counter doing my best not to limp as I walk over to him. He is facing opposite of me as he cooks the bacon. I rap my arms around his waist and he stiffens for only a moment then he registers what is going on and then relaxes. " I thought all this stupid training was to keep me from being all sore and stuff." I say with a pouty voice. Cole chuckles. " Not always. Not the way you and Jessica fight. You guys are crazy." He says shaking his head. " I know right! She's evil!" I exclaim making his laugh again which I can hear through his whole body since my ear is on his back. 

" At least you won." He says as he turns in my arms and kisses the top of my head making me blush a bit. He was my best friend and so has his sister since I could remember. We all used to be neibors and I would practically live at their house. When highschool came along and I realized that 'oh hey I actually like guys and I'm not one of them' I realized that I liked Cole and he liked me. But it wasnt that simple. See it took me a long time to actually admit that to him and even then I was drunk. Also the only reason I don't flip out when I was up in his bed with his pants on and JayLeen's shirt is because we have never had sex and we both know that is off the table for me for a while. Frankly I was just terrified I'd end up pregnet. Which isn't impossible! Plus when I was younger I used to have really bad PTSD and would have bad dreams that would make it impossible for me to sleep at night and so I would either sleep ALL DAY or I would go to his window and climb in. He would hold me in his bed and pet my hair giving me little words of encouragement and coax me to sleep. I'd never had a bad dream when I was in a bed or just simply around him. I could never explain it, he was my safe place growing up. 

" True." I tell him as he balances a pan of now cooked bacon and grease over my head. He gives me a cheeky smile and I roll my eyes as I move out of the way and retreat back to my water bottle almost finishing it up. 

" So when are we training next?" I asked him. " Tomorrow. " He tells me. " But," He also informed. " I got a call this morning. A girl named Kinsley is looking for a fight. She's new so I don't know how she fights, but I've heard she has experience and is quite good. I was wondering if you want to give it a try. They arent going to be in town for about a week maybe two. So we will be having some hard training if you are up for it." He says. I think about it for a moment as he starts moving around the kitchen getting the pancake mix and starts to cook some pancakes as well. " Do you think it'd be a good idea?" I asked him. Cole shrugs. " It's all really up to you. I mean if you think you can handle it you can do it. Either way you can fight her. But I want to get you as prepared as you can get if you want to go against her because she can probably get you higher up in the ranks if you win and possibly even loose but just for attempting." I thought about it some more. " Why not." I tell him. He looks at me a little shocked. Its not like me to take risks like that but at this point I didn't care. I wanted to get high up so I can start getting belts and making something of myself. 

" Hungry?" He asks as JayLeen walks into the kitchen with wild hair and her make up messed up from not being washed off last night." Yes please." She says as she grabs a glass from the cabinets and gets some sunny D from the fridge. She comes over to me draping her arms over my shoulders as she leans her head on mine. " I love you." She tells me, she still hasn't completely woken up at this point. " I love you too Jay." I tell her. She smiles at me a bit and takes a drink of her Sunny D. 

Authors note:

Hey guys sorry. This was mostly a filler for what is suppost to be coming up next. I hope you like it and I am sorry to be cutting this one short but I am very tired. Next chapter may or may not be just on KingsLee's POV I haven't decided yet. 

Question of the day:

How do you feel about Cole and 'Katara's' relationship? They arent dating exactly but they arent dating either. 

Plus what do y'all think is gonna happen next?
