(2153 words)

We drive for about thirty minutes until we reach the gym . " I hope he shits his self . " I say to myself . He hears it though none the less . " You got a hooded jacket?" I ask him . He looks on the back seat . He pull's one out and gives it to me ." Good thing I didn't take it out the car yesterday ." He says I giggle ." Yeah I suppose so . " I tell him . I pull it on and his scent invades my nose . "Ready " I ask as I pull the hood over my head . He hands me some big shades " I suppose sine you are trying yo hide your face you might want these they are my sisters ." He says . I take them from him and put them on . "Thanks ." I say ." You ready ?" He says ." Yeah I'm ready . " I say . He sticks his hand out and I grab it . He wraps his fingers around mine . My hand is small compared to him . But I swear I can feel his pulse beat in his palm . It increases when I squeeze his hand . 

We walk in the gym hand in hand . We make our way to Joey's office . We almost make it when Issac stops us . " Can I help you ?" He asks . " No I have some business to do with Joey ." Roberto says pushing past him . Pulling me along with him . We walk into Joey's office . He has his head laid on his desk . I see a picture on his wall . It's a memorial everyone has signed it . He must have told everyone here I was dead . 

 Joey looks up from his desk I am partly hidden behind Roberto . " What do you want Vaccini ?" Joey slurs out his words . He's drunk . this is almost to comical " I don't want anything from you . But I do have someone who does want something from you " He says as he steps to the side . Exposing me fully for Joey to see . Joey looks up at me . He doesn't recognize me at first . 

 I take off the hood and the shade . Joey's eyes get as big as saucers. I throw the deed to both of the gyms I had bought with me on the desk . " I want you to sign these ." I tell him . He stands from his chair . Almost falling over in the process ." Lucy ! Oh thank God you are alive ! " He say's . I laugh " Yeah I'm alive no thanks to you . You blew my place up ." I say . I pick the pen up from his pen holder .  " Sign them papers ." I say to him . He looks at the papers and drops back into his seat ." You want me to give you my gym's ?" He ask " Yes I do .Either sign them or I take the pictures of you placing the bomb at my house trying to kill me the police . I think the guys would rather me run it then them be without a gym ." I say He picks up the pen . " If I sign this you won't call the cops ?" He says . I cross my fingers behind my back . " No just sign the gums over to me and you can walk away ." I say .

 He picks up the pen and signs both places on both documents . I sign and then Roberto stamps it with a ' witness signature ' I pick up the paper's and hand them over to Roberto " Hold these for me . I got a score to settle . " I say and turn to Joey ." You and I got a score to settle . Let's hit the cage . I will walk away with my life . With the rage I have right now you better pray you at least walk away breathing." I tell him . 

He look's at me with wide eyes . " No way am I stepping in  a ring with you when you are pissed . I have seen the kind of damage you can do . " He says " I don't care if you have seen it now get to stepping ." I tell him . I look to Roberto " You happen to have a extra pair of shorts ?" I ask him . He shakes his head ." No sorry I can't help you with that ." He says. I shrug " It's ok not like none of these guys hasn;t ever seen me in my bra and panties before ." I say stepping out of the office on Joey's tail . I shove him toward the ring . " Have the guys watch the doors . You want to see me in a cage . You about to get the show you want ." I tell Roberto . He signals something to the guys and they all step toward the door . 

 They spread their feet shoulder width apart and put their hands behind their back . They are guarding the door just like they do at Roberto's house and his office . I walk past the guys taking off Roberto's jacket as I go . I hand him his jacket . I then take off my shirt . Glad I have a sports bra and my boy short undies on under my clothes .
