Selfless And Honest

Chapter 7

I sigh and sit on my bed when I realize I'm all by my self. It's thirty minutes before training. To my relief, Peter enters the room and tosses me an apple before grabbing clothes for me to change into.

"Where'd everyone go this morning?" I ask.

"Dining hall. I didn't want to wake you up so I decided to go eat a bit and then bring an apple back for you." Peter replies and lifts me out of bed. He carries me to the bathroom.

"Well thank you. I'm a grumpy early morning person anyway." I laugh. He smiles at me. I start getting changed and pull on the long sleeved shirt he brought. It's his obviously.

"You know I have lots of shirts that I have to wear at some point." I remind him.

"Nahhh. You can just wear mine." Peter replies. I roll my eyes and smile.

"I had a feeling that you'd say that. I mean, even before we started dating you had me wear your shirts. So what made me think that I'd start wearing my own?" I laugh.

"I don't know. But wherever you got that idea from, you were out of your mind." Peter says before kissing my cheek and guiding me out of the bathroom.

"I forgot my apple." I whine. Peter sighs.

"I'll go back and get it. Head to training awhile." Peter tells me. I nod.

"Okay. Thanks Peter." I say gratefully. He smiles and kisses my cheek before going back to the dorm. I run to the training room awhile.

"Where's your boyfriend?" Ember asks me. I smile.

"He went back to the dorm to get my apple for me." I reply. Four looks around the room.

"We're missing one." Four says. I bite my lip.

"Uh. Peter will be here in a second." I tell Four. He nods. And just after that, Peter runs in.

"Sorry I'm late." Peter says and hands me my apple.

"Eh. It's just 3 minutes. Don't be late again though or you'll get points taken off." Eric tells Peter. My boyfriend nods rapidly.

"Understood." Peter says. I take a bite out of the apple and hold it out to him.

"Wan shome?" I ask with my mouth full of apple. Peter smiles and accepts the apple. He takes a bite out of it before handing it back to me.

"Don't go back for my apple next time. I'll just deal with the hunger." I tell Peter.

"No." He says like a little kid. I roll my eyes and take another bite out of the apple.

"You're so cute when you eat. Your cheeks puff up like a little chipmunks'." Peter says and grins at me. I blush and try not to laugh in order to keep the apple in my mouth.

"Today we will be learning hand-to-hand combat." Four tells us before punching a punching bag with enough force to make it swing side to side. He then kicks it.

"Take a punching bag and try to make it swing." Eric tells us. We all scramble over to our own punching bags. I choose one between Peter and Ember. I throw two punches at it and it doesn't budge. Peter grins at me.

"You have to draw your power from here." Peter says and places his hand on my stomach. I blush and wink at him.

"I was merely testing how heavy it was." I say before throwing three strong but fast punches before doing a spin kick. The punching bag sways side to side rapidly. Peter watches it in shock.

"My girlfriend is awesome." Peter mumbles. I wink at him. Eric walks over and raises an eyebrow at my punching bag as it continues to swing.

"Well. That was unexpected. Keep up the good work." Eric says. I nod and continue beating the crap out of my punching bag.
