Alexander King and The Girl Next Door

Chap 17

I think this chapter is technically starting to get more mature but like just remember they are all legal👍 (18+) there will be warnings before actual mature stuff this one is really just language.

After walking through the front door of the slightly smelly bar, my nostrils are immediately hit with a scent that can only be described as booze and BO. I change my mind, this place is definitely more than slightly smelly.
The more we walk in the more the scent changes, some areas smell clean, like cigars, like booze, like cheap perfume. You name it, there's the smell.
I can already see that Rosie and I don't really belong. Although, we don't look really out of place, everyone here seems to know where they are trying to go and what's happening and who everyone else is. It's not until we get towards the fighting ring and see Aaron, Eric and Nick. I should've known I'd see them here, my brothers and their friends really do like their illegal activities, I swear one day I'm going to have to bail those stupid idiots out of jail or something.
I go up behind Eric and cover his eyes with my hands. He starts panicking for a split second until I speak
"Guess who baby boo?" He stops freaking out and starts off listing names.
"Is it Vin Diesel? That voice was definitely Vin Diesel," I take my hands off and start laughing.
"Oh definitely I sound like Vin Diesel,"
"Okay am I the only one wondering what hell you two are doing here?" Asks Nick. Always the one to get right to the point.
"Ro and I are here to pick her up some hot man candy apparently," I gotta put all the blame on her, otherwise this will definitely get back to my brothers.
"Jeez just put the blame on me," Ro mumbles under her breath, just quiet enough that I can hear but no one else seems to.
"Interesting, are you looking for volunteers?" Aaron, forever in love with my best friend sidles up beside Ro and drapes his arm around her shoulder. She grunts at him, very much like a pig.
"Get your arm off me, I don't want the hot ones getting scared that I'm not single," she shoves him off and straightens herself out while the others and I laugh at Aaron's lame attempt. Ro grabs my arm and pulls us away,
"We are going somewhere else now! Bye!" She shouts over her shoulder while I laugh my head off.
We end up settling towards the front on the opposite side of the ring and are immediately plagued by the group of guys there. Ahem, sorry I mean entertained.
"Hey babe wanna make a bet?" Rosie turns around with a sultry look in her eyes. My god she's really going all out for this one.
"Depends, what are we betting on? And what do I get if I win?" She winks at him and does her little twirly hair things that with most girls it's look cheesy, but her hair is so shiny it just draws more attention to her.
"I'm gonna bet I can make you scream my name, and if you win? You can have whatever you'd like baby," Okay. Cool. So the fight hasn't even started and already she's picked a guy.
"Not if you don't tell me your name," again she continues on with her conversation. I look over the guy. Not really Rosie's type. He's not exactly super muscular (my weakness), he doesn't have long hair (she likes to have something to grab- her words not mine), and he's not really tall either (you know what they say about shoe size right?).
But now his friend, is a sight. He must be 6 foot 4, and I can practically see his chiseled abs through his t-shirt, and his cheek bones. God damn his cheek bones. I can't even begin to describe how perfectly chiseled his facial structure is. God damn. Well now I'm in the market for some man candy cause hello.  He turns to me laughing,
"Our friends seem pretty keen on banging each other. Don't they?" I nod my head in reply and kind of continue checking him out.
"I'm Zach, it's nice to meet you..?" He trails of at the end obviously asking for my name.
"Amelia, and likewise. Hopefully your friend can keep it in his pants until Ro is ready to leave cause I'm going to be honest, I do not want to see that." Zach starts laughing, as I kind of laugh along not wanting to just stand there awkwardly.
"So are you here to see someone fight? Or do you just like to be in the crowd?"
"Oh, I don't think I know anyone who street fights but it'd be interesting if I saw someone I knew up there." He nods his head
"That'd be kind of difficult because they all usually wear something over their heads to protect their identities. I mean this is kind of illegal." That makes sense. You wouldn't want a video to get leaked to the police with your fists colliding with someone else's face where they could identify you.
"Very true, so then I guess I'm just here to participate." He smiles and drags me up closer to the front.
"Do you wanna just participate with me?" I look back at Rosie and her boy toy to see them making out. So I just comply and go with him towards the front.
Immediately the small crowd we pushed through closes behind us. Cutting off my view of Rosie. She's a big girl, but a best friend has to worry a little. Good thing the guy she picked isn't anything too big or strong otherwise she wouldn't be able to take him herself. I mean she is the daughter of a cop, so her self defense skills are a lot better than average, but still.
I hear the announcer over the loudspeaker after a minute or two of chatting with Zach.
"Up next ladies and gentlemen is Hitman versus Royal Pain," immediately the entire room starts chanting 'Long live the king'. Obviously this guys is a crowd favorite.
"I fucking hate that guy, the people here only like him cause he doesn't fight as often as everyone else. And whenever he does it's a total blood bath."
"Is he really that good?" Zach just nods and looks back up at the ring to see the training coaches setting up the chairs. Well this is about to be interesting.

A/N: I'm pretty sure you guys can guess who Royal Pain 👑 is... but whatever it's not exactly supposed to be the surprise of the century.
What's everyone's thoughts on Zach? Should he be nice, or bad? I'm still not sure. 🤔
