My ears buzzed as my alarm clock started to ring. I reached out my hands to turn it off, searching to find it without looking. I reached over and hit the alarm as I yawned and tried to adjust my eyes to the brightness of the morning. I slowly stumbled into the bathroom where I turned on my radio and went into the shower. I kept on think of different strategies I could fight, while I wash my hair. I turn the faucet off grabbing my white towel and wrapping it around me: I got a text from an unknown number.
Unknown: Hey its Grayson. Ethan gave me your number.
Leena: Uhhh okay??
Grayson: You can't beat me! I know it I had more experience than you.
Leena: We'll see :)I began to get dressed and pack my gym bag up for the big day to show people what I'm made of. I began to think of the way Grayson fights; He always punches with his left hand first. I began to head towards the gym, entering the gym door a gust of the smell of sweat and humidity splashing against my face. I looked around as guys began to high five me and shake me up. I saw Grayson punching a bag as I step towards him.
"You are not gonna win! Remember that!" I said to him as he had a smirk on his face. When I quickly went to the empty girls locker room changing so I can keep my grind on. I began with my trainer also known as Scott, hold the punching bag for me. Grayson was on his break as his muscular arms flexed as he chugged down that cold water bottle. I saw him through the corner of my eye, trying not to get distracted. Grayson finished his water bottle and walked over towards me and I watched me punch the bag. He put his hand on my hand as I yanked it away from him.
"You need to use both of your hands when you fight.." Grayson told me as I looked up at him.
"I know how to use both hands ok? I was a starter in wrestling and football! Stop trying to tell me what to do and worry about your damn self!!" I shouted taking off my gloves and shoving them into his hands. The whole gym went quiet as I walked towards the locker room.
"You did wrestling?? How bout a match instead of a boxing match!?" He told me as I felt interested so I turned back around.
"I will do that" I agreed as they set a mat down and chairs to match. We got into our positions, as I looked at Grayson just smiling and chuckling.
"I hope you know our deal?" Grayson reminded me as I smirked and nodded my head. Someone blew a whistle as we began to go at it. Grayson was much stronger than me and he slammed me to the ground as people started yelling, I grunted as he stood up and brushed his fingers through his light brown hair. I stood up as we went back to our past position, thinking of what his weakness was; He always go for my right leg and I focused on his core. Once he jumped to my right leg then I used my strength to push him down, I got him on lock down. Grayson broke out and ankle picked* me?! He held me as I struggled to get out, Scott began to count down from 10. Before the match was over I lost. I had agreement i had to go on a stupid date with Grayson, I head to a chair and put a cold towel around the back of my neck and chugged down my water. I watched as everyone put all the mats away and went back to boxing. Grayson walked up to me and put his huge hands on his hips, he just stood there as i tried to ignore him."Grayson what do you want?!" I stood up to him trying to be confident, he looked down at me and smiled with his dimpled soft face.
"I'll pick you up at 6pm by the old record shop" He demanded, walking away from me into the locker room as I rushed into my locker room. I quickly put on my all black adidas jumpsuit, heading out into the dark night. I jogged to catch with Grayson and I slowed down as we began to walk the same pace. First, we walked in silence and once I began to search for AirPods Grayson began to talk to me finally.
"I want to know more about you" He said as I dropped my hands to my sides. "Uhh what do you mean?" I asked. "Like what's your favorite color or movie" He answered as I chuckled because how childish he sounds.
"yellow and-nevermind" I began to answered, but stopped because of the impression I will make after I say my favorite movie.
"what?! tell me?! I promise I won't judge" Grayson said as he was eager to know, I shook my head back and forth. "impression is the key! i cannot" I said, looking back behind us and walked with my head down.
"doesn't matter to me.." Grayson voice began to lower down. "twilight and first match" I said quickly and quietly as I looked away from him so I don't see his reaction.
"Well that's not bad at all I thought you were gonna say my little pony or something" Grayson laughed as I looked at him and laughed with him. We got to the apartments as he walked me up to my apartment.
"You don't have to walk me up you know.." I said to him as I stopped in front of my door turning towards him. I looked up at him as he put his hand against my doorway. "one more question.." He said as I noticed he was staring at my lips and back at my eyes.
"When was your first kiss?" He asked as I was shocked. " Well.. I have never had my first kiss... awkward right?" I studder and tried to move, but I couldn't. He put his hand on my cheek leaning forward and I opened the front door as we fell together into my living room. I hit my head and everything went black. I woke up in my bed, looking around as the sun shine creeped up in between the blinds. I sat up trying remember what happen last night, did I do 'it' with GRAYSON!!! I switched over to see if anyone was in bed with me. Nobody was next to me, I put on some comfortable clothes for my lazy day. Walking out of my room into the bathroom putting my thick frizzy hair into a messy bun, not in the mood to brush my hair. I grabbed my toothbrush and started to brush my teeth as I walked out of the bathroom, I went into the kitchen and grabbed my cereal on the counter and milk put all of it in a big bowl. I noticed that someone was on my couch laying there asleep, I was ready to fight someone. It was Grayson asleep on the couch as he snored quietly, I tapped him on the shoulder as he opened his eyes and sat and began to ask me question.
"Are you okay?? Did you sleep good?? Should I take you to the hospital??" He put his hands on my big and bold shoulders that I get annoyed by. "I'm fine Grayson, By the way...what happened to me?" I asked as I sat on the couch beside him.
"Well...After I was going for a kiss you..I think you put the door open and you fell pretty hard and hit your head. So I carried you to your bed and I wanted to make sure you were safe, I waited on the couch for you to wake up. I guess I fell asleep" He explained to me as I glared at him. "You should go back, Ethan must be worried about you!" I said as we both stood up and I shoved him towards the door. He turned around and he looked at me and kissed me on the cheek, I turned red and smiled at him as I shoved him out the door. I sighed as I sat on the couch and put my head back, I turned my head and he left his blue hoodie here. I wanted to give it to him the moment but I grabbed it and it was warm and he had the best smell ever, it was a very comfort cologne on it. I stared at his hoodie and smiled, I barely know him but everything seems good to me. Even.....
"his smell..."
