The Bad Boys Persuasion

3

"Bye mum, I'm going to the gym after school and I'll be home at about six" I call into the kitchen before walking out the door. "Okay sweetie, be safe and attempt to make friends!" She yells back, and I roll my eyes at the same thing she had been telling me for the past ten years o of my schooling life. Opening the front door and stepping out, closing the door behind me, I put on my nikes TN's, that I had gotten for Christmas that previous year and I love them more then most people.

Walking down the path that crosses over the front lawn of the homes in my street, I cross Arrows driveway and I see him in his car about to drive out into the street. Deciding to be the nice neighbour that I should be, I wave with a small smile and he unexpectedly winds down his window and sticks his head out.

"Aye sweetie hows it goin?" He asked in a very cheery tone, and I frown at his choice of words and the fact that he's even talking to me. "Um, good. You?" I call down his driveway and he shrugs. "Im alright. Anyway, you don't plan on walking all the way to school do you?" I look down the path and think about my long travel. School was located in the middle of the suburb and I lived on the outskirts of it.

"Um yeah, but i'll be fine. I do it everyday" He shakes his head and cocks his head to the car. "Come on let me give you a lift it's the least I can do" He whines, I shake my head and smiled. "Im alright Arrow, I'm sure you don't want to pull up to school with me in your car anyway" He puts his car into drive and it smoothly drives further down the driveway, so now I'm standing outside his window. "Look, just get in the car. If you think I'm going to kidnap you, kill you and end up dumping your body on the side of the highway, I won't if that helps" he assures with his cocky smile and I laugh, looking at the ground.

"It's not that Arrow, I just don't wanna annoy you" I say and he clicks his tongue in disapproval, "Please, you arguing with me annoys me. Jump in, we'll even get coffee on the way?"
I look at him with squinted eyes, being tempted to his offer.
"Fine Woods, but don't crash" I say getting in the passenger seat of his rather new black Mercedes-benz.

"I love your car" I say, running my hand down the leather interior and he nods his head in agreement.
"Thanks. I fucking love my Mercedes. I've even been thinking of getting another one" he says scratching his chin, while looking in his review mirror.
"Cool! I've been trying to convince my dad to get me the Mustang GT or a Harley Davidson V-Rod, I'm getting there"
He laughs and looks at me once we come to a set of lights.

"You don't like girly things do you?" He says and I shrug slightly.
"I guess I still like shopping and nice clothing. But I hate flowers and dresses" I say in a definite tone.
"You remind me of my sister Maddie. Maybe you should talk to her sometime" he offers and I smile. "Maybe"

After  the long day at school, I make my way to the local gym and check the car park to see who's there. Basically only one person since there's two cars. One worker and one work-outer.
Opening the door with my membership card, I scan the gym and to my prediction it was empty as empty can get.
"Hey serenity, how's it goin?" The owner Jeffry, greeted me with a wave from the front desk.
"Hey Jeff, I'm good. How are you?"
He shakes his hand out flat, with puffed out bottom lip, resembling he was  'not so bad'

"The misses is driving me haywire and the twins keep me on my feet all day. So in other words my life's perfect, thanks for asking. Hows school?" I laugh at the man in his early fourties reply. Jeffery was a large man, not in a fat way but height and muscle. He stood at least 6'5 and had to be at least one hundred kilos. His figure may be scary but he has a heart of pure gold and is the most caring person alive.

"Its alright I guess, thanks for asking. Say Hi to Jewel for me. I'll see ya later" I say with  a smile and walk down further into the gym. The first training I did was half an hour on the bike, an hour on the treadmill, all uphill then went to give the bag a few hits. Just to finish off, since now I was drenched with sweat and probably didn't look quite attractive.
Walking into the rink section of the gym, I see a big figure already hitting the bag, pounding it merciless and it kinda makes me quiver and want to get out of here. But curiosity killed the cat and I walk closer to see who it was. The man turns around, sweet dripping down his chiseled body, making my breath hitch and face go hot. His skin was covered in tattoos, not a space of his natural skin to be seen.

He looked up, giving me his signature sinister smirked and I gulped at the one and only
Hades Apollo.
"What's a little girl like you doing in a big boys like me gym?" He taunts and I frown crossing my arms over my chest.
"Excuse me? That's extremely sexist!" I say and he laughs.
"Of course it is.." he mumbles turning around, continuing to pound the bag.

"Fine be rude! Like I give a rats ass, you think this is a big boy gym? I bet nothing on you is big anyway" I huff, and once those words slipped out of my mouth, I regret it deeply, the dirtiest thoughts coming into mind. That dirty I think I need holy water.

He slowly turns around and gives me a sinister smirk. It wasn't scary and it wasn't flirty. It was more of a challenging smile. But yet it made my core heat up and skin shiver. Why was he so damn hot? At the same time an arrogant prick?

"I promise you sweetie, that nothing about me is small, if you don't believe me, get on your knees and I'll show you otherwise" he says, his voice swinging low and I gasp aloud at what he just said to me. Crossing my arms over my chest I frown and release an emotionless laugh.

"Listen, I don't think I need to suck you off to prove anything. Im probably correct anyway"         I say, more confidence in my voice and he squints his eyes, before they trail from head to toe on my body, leaving me to gulp and nervously fiddle with my fingers. "You're and interesting girl bub. Fucking interesting" He mumbles, taking off his punching gloves and I scoff. Bub? Who calls a girl bub? 

"Excuse me?" I hiss, and he looks up from the undoing the wraps on his hands with amusement. "What did I do now?" He mutters, rolling his eyes in the process.

"Who are you calling bub?' I say, putting my hands on my hips and he now does a full on smile, showcasing his adorable dimples. Making my heart flutter. Theres something wrong with me...

"Nothing sweetheart, your just to cute" He says, walking up to me and grabbing my chin, wagging it side to side like an old lady would, leaving it beet red after-woods.

"Bags all your, see you at school Bub" He says, putting his equipment into the bag, zipping it up and walking out the boxing room without another word, nor glance in my direction.
