A Month later
The past month here in Long Valley has been great. Other than all the death stares, small punch ups and rumors from Lillian and... Julia.
I've grown so much closer to my friends, especially Grayson. He's helped me so much with everything, like the shit Julia gives me and boxing. And with all that encouragement that Gray has given me has paid off, cause this weekend, i'm in the grand finale. Without all the pep talks and all the compliments i've gotten from him, i wouldn't have come this far.
He helped me achieve my goal, and i love him for that.
I never, ever thought i might say this but, i've come to a conclusion that i love him, as rubbish as that might sound, it's true. I want to tell him so bad, but i'm scared he only likes me as a friend. It's like whenever he's around, i'm a happier person. And there are moments where i was so close from just kissing him cause he is that amazing. I could stare at him all day if i could...
It's a thursday night and i'm sitting on the couch, watching Moana for the 356783 time.
BUZZ.
🔥Grayson🔥: hey jess, watching Moana again?
Me: how did you know that?
🔥Grayson🔥: cause you always watch that duh

🔥Grayson🔥: aw sorry. Do you want to come and watch me?
🔥Grayson🔥: or are you too scared to see someone's nose be punched in?😏
Me: i'm not scared, i'm not scared of anything
🔥Grayson🔥: okay good. Be here by 8. It starts in 20 minutes.
Me: okay see you then. Excited to see some broken bones :))
🔥Grayson🔥: very funny Jess😂
I run upstairs and get dressed in my clothes. It's a hot night so i decide to wear black shorts, with a grey top and a flannel. I put on my favorite choker and my white converse, with a black lip.
"Mh" i say looking at my hair. Umma just let it go wild.
"Mum, i'm going to look after the kids!" i shout. I meant the kids that i 'babysit' all the time.
I slide through the door, grabbing the keys from a side table near by. I run to the car and drive off to the building i go to every saturday for my fights. I've never seen Grayson in a fight before, so this should be interesting.
It's 8:05. "Shit" i say. I quickly park the car on the curb and run inside. A few guys cat call me from behind but i just flip them off.
The cheering of the crowd gets louder as i get closer to the ring. I see Grayson and another guy circle each other. Grayson has an angry expression on his face and the only thing he's focused on is the other guy. His hair is messy and he already has a cut on his lip. The only thing he's wearing is boxers and a pair of boxing gloves.

Fanfiction"you were 35 points ahead!" he shouts. I don't reply. "Jess, I thought you weren't scared of her." he says walking closer to me. "Well I'm human! Okay?" i say, hesitating a little. "And i'm terrified"
