Fearless

Chapter 7

Ron called me by 8:30 in the morning 'checking if I was okay', and of course he threw cheesy words at me whenever the opportunity came. He told me to get ready because today is my first day in combat training and that he is my assigned trainer, just great.

I hear a knock on the door just as I put my final make up touches- my lipstick and mascara, I hurry up in applying my makeup and run to open the door.

"Geez be careful you may fall while running like that" Ron says and winks at me; God, he is such a flirt,

"Just shut up okay? Next time I will make sure to walk as slowly as I can and I will leave you standing by my door like a weirdo stalker for the longest time possible okay?" I say with an irritated voice,

"Ayy, I am sorry, I didn't mean to make you angry, I was just joking so calm the hell down"

"Don't swear" I say

"Hell is a swear? What about f-"

"Shut up!" I say and put my hands on my ears to not hear what he is saying,

"Okay fine I won't now please let's go have breakfast?" He says and grabs my wrist,

"Okay" I say and we start walking,

"You are really innocent you know" he says and smiles,

"I am? My God, are you even serious?" I laugh,

"Yes I am totally serious. You think of 'hell' as a swear, how won't you be an innocent girl?" He raises his right eyebrow in a questioning way,

"I don't like swearing but I am not innocent either" I laugh a little,

"What a good bad girl" he says and wiggles his eyebrows at me,

"Oh shut up better" I say

"How many times in the day to you say 'shut up'?" He asks and starts to laugh hysterically,

"I don't know that's non of your business" I say trying my best to look serious,

"'Shut up' should be your favourite pick up line ya know" he says with a devilish smile plastered on his face,

"Yes it is my pick up line but not with everyone, it's meant especially for you" I say smirking at the comeback I made,

"Aww am I that special in your life?" Ron asks me smirking,

"You aren't as special as you think" I say,

"Ouch", Ron sets his hand on his heart dramatically, "that cut me deep"

"Good to know, next time don't annoy me, because when I am annoyed, I am not responsible for what I say", I say,

"Then who is?" Ron raises an eyebrow at me,

"Your mother" I start laughing so hard at the look on his face that instead I start to tear up from laughing too much,

"Well, whatever" he says and rolls his eyes trying to be serious.

However, at the end he joins me as well and starts laughing with me.

"I know you can do it" Ron tells me,

"No I can't" I complain,

"God, just practise more, don't you remember how amazingly you aimed with that gun I gave you back in Lancee at the guard's leg?"

"I hope that's not sarcasm" I state,

"No it's not" he winks,

"God, that's a lot of work to do" I say,

"Oh come on you can do it", he says.

Finally I hit the target. "See! I told you!" Ron exclaims,

"Hahaha but this is my first time to hit the target; I have been practicing since an hour now", I groan,

"So what? You can do it. If you did it then you can do it again and again" Ron smiles,

I nod, not knowing how to reply,

"Come on, let's go for a walk, you need some break I bet" he says,

"To be honest, yes I do, this is so tiring" I say.

We start to walk to the door, but something unbelievable happens, Ron, takes my hand in his, causing a warm feeling spreading through me, however, I could feel my face burning,

"You are okay with that right?" Ron smiles,

He must have noticed me being uncomfortable with this, "Yeah, it's no problem at all" I smile,

"Good, because there's a couple of things I need to show you" Ron says.
