1| His Queen to Claim

Chapter Two

Maya

Training went by smoothly, we did hand to hand combat and then moved on to blocking. It was nearly 6 when Nate came to pick me up. He watched the end of it when we did target practice with different weapons. I'd chosen a bow and arrow and managed to always split the arrow shot prior and all were in the middle of the forehead of the practice dummy.

"You're a good shot with the bow. Did you learn how to do that in Jamaica?" He asked as he drove down the road.

"Yes and no. I started using it but I wasn't that good. Maybe it's just because it was a lighter bow. The ones I used in Jamaica were made for actual combat." I said.

"Oh, well it's good that you can aim like that. But on another note you stink." He said laughing.

"Shut up! You stink everyday from your training with Beckum." I said playfully hitting his shoulder.

"I could've wrecked the car!" He said dramatically.

"Sometimes I think I was supposed to be the boy and not you." I joked causing him to smile.

"It's not my fault you're such a guy." He said back.

"And it's not my fault you're such a drama queen." I said getting out the car as he parked in the garage.

"I am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"What are you two arguing about now?" Mom asked as we walked through the living room.

"He said I act like a guy so I called him a drama queen." I said before going towards the stairs.

"Because you act like one." He said defensively.

"And you act like an even bigger drama queen!" I said.

"Nathaniel quit calling your sister a guy!" Mom scolded causing me to stick my tongue out at him before running up the stairs to dodge the pillow he threw which caused mom to get on him even more.

"I'm leaving back out, I have to go to your dad's office." My mom called up the stairs.

"Okay mom." I yelled back.

I laughed and went into my room. I threw my bag down and checked my phone.

iMessage from 'Best 💍'

Just a couple more hours before I shift! Are you coming over?

I texted her back.

Wouldn't miss it for the world! I'll be over as soon as I'm done with my shower.

I didn't wait for her to respond and sat my phone face down and grabbed another Nike outfit that was much similar to the one I had on but it was just spandex shorts and a sports bra with NIKE written over it. I grabbed under garments as well before heading to the shower.

When I finished I slipped into the clothes and fixed my hair so it was in a more secure ponytail but not too tight. I put on black Nike running shoes over my Nike socks. As you can see I love Nike but I love Puma even more I just don't want any of it to get messed up and I just got it. These are my older clothes that I've been wearing.

I sent a text to my mom telling her where I would be seeing as she still wasn't home yet. Lucy's house is at the end of my street on the corner but it is a long street. There's nothing to worry about, no getting kidnapped or any of that because this is my packs town.
