I started out slow from my lack of training, slowly shifting my feet with each hand. Remembering to keep my fist straight and shift my weight to the opposite foot of the punch being thrown. I worked out hard until I was drenched in sweat and gasping for air. Each breathe burned, my muscles ached.
Surprisingly I wasn’t as out of shape as I thought I was. I wasn’t actually out of shape at all just a little rusty but it took me about 10 minutes to work through that. I went to the kitchen grabbing some water before going back and redoing it, until I felt like I was about to drop from exhaustion and I was soaked in sweat.
I trudged upstairs taking a cold shower and then I went to the couch and fell asleep.
“MJ” someone sang shaking my shoulder, I'm going to murder whoever this is.
“what” I snapped.
“Wake up” the voice said.
“Go away” I growled.
“Do I have to go get Tyse?” the dumb, annoying, voice asked.
“go get him I don’t fucking care” I grumbled and turned on my stomach going back to sleep. Being woken up from good sleep is one of the most horrible damned things that can ever happen to you.
I vaguely heard the front door close, before I feel back into a deep sleep. Exhaustion always makes sleeping deeper.
I got up and started hunting around for Tyse he was in his office, alone.
“hey” I said grinning at him and going to sit in his lap.
“hi love” he replied kissing my cheek and laying his head on my shoulder.
“I have a surprise for you” he told me.
“is it a puppy?” I asked him, he chuckled.
“Unfortunately no it isn’t” he said and kissed my forehead.
“damn” I said dramatically.
“go put on some warm clothes” he told me,
“Babe it’s like the middle of summer” I reminded him, he gave me a hard’ go do what I said’ look and I wet upstairs and put on some jeans and one of his sweater that kept falling off my shoulder, I tucked my jeans into my combat boots and put on a beanie.
Tyse was already downstairs, “You look gorgeous” he told me opening the door for me and taking me to the car. We drove for a really long time, like a really, really long time.
“Are we there yet?” I asked.
“Does it look like we’re here yet?” Tyse asked me trying not to show his irritation with me.
“I don’t know what here is supposed to look like” I replied like I had the past 5 times he had replied with that answer. Finally he stopped and covered my eyes. And I was walking on something squishy, I could hear waves crashing and I knew I was at the beach.
“are you peaking?” he acused once again.
“No I’m not peaking I can't see through your huge hands covering my face” I told him.
“I think you’re peaking” he said.
“I think if you accuse me of peaking one more time I'm going to poke you in the eye with a fork” I replied.
“So violent” he muttered.
“Yet so sexy” he said lowly in my ear making me shivers as his hot breath fanned over my skin.
“stop seducing me while I'm walking” I told him.
“I wasn’t seducing you” he retorted.
