A long silence stood between us, it was broken by captain Kenny who was now looking back and forth between Rhett and me.
He sensed it, "Um. Is everything good guys?" Kenny asked awkwardly.
I was the first one who broke eye contact with Rhett, "We're fine." I answered.
"Looks like you're in luck Gorgeous. My friend is going to sell his VIP ticket because he had to attend an urgent meeting in another country, so he won't be able to use it." Captain Kenny grinned at me.
I shrugged, not knowing if I should watch or not. I glanced at Rhett who was now deep in thought.
"What do you say?" Captain asked me. I looked up at Rhett, "What do you think Rhett? Should I come or what?" I inquired, redirecting the question to him.
In all honesty, I didn't want to ruin his game by distracting him with the championship at stake. But at the same time, I wanna be there for him and watch the match.
His eyes lighten up, "Alright. As long as you're with captain Kenny, I guess I could concentrate on the fight." He admitted.
"Yay!" I squealed.
"You just focus on your match Rhett, and defend your undefeated title. I'll watch over her. Besides, some of our clubmates would be there." Captain Kenny assured us.
Rhett sigh in relief, "Thanks man." He said, fist bumping with Kenny.
"No problem, dude." Captain smiled. "We'll start in ten." He informed, heading inside the caged ring first.
Rhett lingered, as if waiting for me to say something.
"Thanks for allowing me to watch." I mumbled.
He exhaled slowly, "I'm sorry I have to be strict with you."
I smiled a little, knowing deep down he cares about my welfare. Hey, it's a start. "I promise I'll behave." I pledged.
He smiled back, pinching my nose. "It's not you I'm worried about. It's the guys who can't seem to help themselves when they're with you." He smirked, "I couldn't blame them though." He whispered the last part looking down.
My heart kinda twisted at his statement. But in a good way.
"What do you mean?" I found myself asking the question outloud.
He slowly looked at me, smile creeping up his handsome face. "Um." He gulped, then cleared his throat.
We were both startled by captain Kenny, "Time to train champ!" He yelled from inside the ring.
"Uh. I better go train now." He said but still not moving from his spot.
His gaze was so hypnotic, I don't want to break it. It felt like we're in a trance.
"You better." I said leaning closer to him now. I held his gaze still.
He also leaned closer, his breath fanning my face gently. A little closer and our nose will touch.
He closed the distance by pulling me to him, then our lips touched. It felt like I'm floating. He deepened the kiss making me arch my back. I almost moaned but held it in. We both pulled back hazily.
Woah! What was that kiss about? I mean, WOW. I want more.
He traced my lower lip using his thumb, "I guess I couldn't help myself either." He confessed, then he went to join captain Kenny who had his mouth hanging at what he had just witnessed.
And here I am standing frozen and dumbfounded. I could still feel his lips on mine.
Did he really just kiss me? Rhett just--Oh my God!
