I'm the bad boy's girl

Ch-8

The songs I'm using in this book are not mine, though they are repeated playlist of mine. All the songs those are present belong to one or the other singer. So, I don't hold any copyrights for them. And if you like some song and think that it might suit this story let me know I'll use that one as well.

"I'm going to tell the basic punches for now. Jab, cross, hook and uppercut." he started explaining.

"Keep your legs apart, and keep your strength around yout waist. Jab, you hit straight in the face with your fist of your dominant hand while using other fist to cover your chin. Okay, I'll show that now." He did the jab and asked me to do it.

I did what he told but he's not satisfied "Hit straight in the face. Hit me." he said.

"What? No." I declared.

"Come on, hit me" he raised his voice.

"No, I'm not going to hit anyone" I said loudly matching his voice.

He left the room. I thought I made him angry. But after minutes he came holding a dummy.

"Okay, then hit this! " he asked. I nodded and showed him the jab.

I practiced a couple of times and looked at him. Like this he showed me all other punches and didn't even give me rest.

By the time training completed, I was drenching in sweat.

"Okay, it enough for today. After school come here daily and we will practice" he said.

"Tyler, thank you for helping me. But, you don't need to do that for me. I'm fine" I said not wanting him to spare his time time daily after school.

"What would have happened to you if I  wasn't coming in that way yesterday? " I just started my legs not wanting to answer my questions.

"It's not a big deal, muffin. I practice daily after school you are just joining me then. Don't worry much" he smiled.

"oh god. Please save me right now. Please make him stop smiling. I can't breath now. "  my mind prayed.

I just followed him out and went to my home. While coming out Lisa insisted that I join them for lunch. So I took bath and joined them. After lunch, Lisa and I watched a movie. In between the movie, Lisa asked me to call Tyler to join us. So, I went to his room. Just when I was about to knock, I heard the guitar sound. Then he started humming. And suddenly,

You've got a  hold of me
Don't even know your power
I stand a hundred feet
But I  fall when I'm around you

Show me an open door
Then you go and slam it on me
I can't take anymore
I'm saying baby

Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart
Would you please have mercy, mercy on my heart

I stood there spell bound by his voice. I mean I knew that he sings. But never heard him sing his own song and with this intense. His voice stopped and I realized that I was eavesdropping. I knocked the door and opened the door.
