I keep attacking the sand bag like it's Leigh and everyone that's ever done me wrong.

Sweat pours off my face, and I pant heavily but I didn't care.

"Wild it's time to take a break." Raven says and I ignore him.

"Oh hell no I will not be ignored I'm older then you and you are not the boss of me anymore. Therefore I demand you to stop." Raven says crossing his arm. I stop I look over to him and I walk up to him getting ready to take a swig at him.

"Okay, okay! Keep hitting the bag! God I've been punch by you before that shit hurts." He says flinching away from me.

I give him a cold smirk. "That's why I'm wild side and you're Raven. I'm crazy and you fly away." I say and he gives me flat look of 'are you kidding me'.

"I'm batman, you're Robin deal with it." I say and Raven rolls his eyes at me. I turn back and start hitting the bag again.

"Why are you here? Usually you come by later." Raven pushes on and I sigh. I stop punching the bag, when the bag comes back to me after my last punch I grab it to make it stop moving. I lay my head on the beat up material.

"Jace went back to Leigh." I say and I look at him but he gave a nod.

"There's a competitor outside waiting for fight." Raven says and I nod back to him.

"I'll think about it." I say and lean away from the punching bag. Getting ready to start all over again.

"Your really not going to use that shiny new fighting rink behind you? It's practically brand new." Raven adds on and but I focus on my jabbing.

"Raven." I say lowly and he nods. "Let me know." He turns away and leaves the room. I punch a couple more times. Then I stop to breathe and get some water. I walk to my bag and pull out container full of water, I started chugging it down.

I always bring four. Every single time I get mad at myself for not bring one more.

"Wild." I keep my back to Nikki who walked through the door, calling my name.

"So I heard you put Leigh in her place." Nikki says fully aware of the current situation at hand. I say nothing and he nods.

"Jace hurt you this bad Mel, to bring back here to this hell hole. Why aren't you doing more? You would be in fight right now-and winning-but your here pushing a sand bag. Why?" Nikki says examining my face watching if he hit a nerve or not.

I stay silent.

"You think that there's something bigger going on don't you." He states.

I put the empty bottle back in my bag, I nod.

"Why do you think that? I know you don't give people benefit of the doubt so why now?" He asks shoving his hands in his pockets.

I stay quiet for another moment collecting my thoughts. "Actions speak loud then words." I state quietly. "His words don't match up with his actions. I don't know, it just might be me trying to keep the only light that came into my life." I tell him.
