Back at Sagar Hills...

Door bell rings... "Who is it?, I'm not in the mood " Julian said walking to the door only to open and see...

"Congrats Jules. You're no troublemaker if you can't defend yourself " Wallace said as he hugged Julian and entwined his fingers as Julian leads him to the couch.

"Well you got that right "Julian said with a chuckle. "I learnt it from the best "

"Who can that be?, Me?" Wallace asked.

"I wish, sweetheart. But no, it's Blake Darius. You should know that "

"What? Blake Darius the boxer ? I so didn't know that! "Wallace said in shock.

"I didn't tell you?. Huh, I must have forgotten " he admitted.

"You must have forgotten?, We've been dating for a year and you forgot?. Do you know what? I will let that slide if you tell me where you know him from and if you are still in contact with him" Wallace said earning a chuckle from Julian.

"Should I be worried and jealous of Blake? " Julian asked with some worry etching on his face.

"Of course. He's an attractive ton of muscle. That's irresistible. "Wallace said with a wink getting Julian jealous. "Well he would have been irresistible if I haven't been stuck in another man's web for a year " he said making Julian smile.

"And you are not going anywhere " Julian said as he kissed Wallace until Wallace responded by touching his face as Julian hissed at it.

"Oh I forgot that you came back from street fighting... " Wallace said getting up from the couch. "Let me get some things to make you feel better " he said walking out.

"You still haven't told me how you know the legendary Blake Darius " Wallace said placing the first aid kit on the table and opening it.

Julian rolls his eyes and chuckles. "We were high school buddies. We spent our last summer in highschool with the football team and he thought me how to fight and yeah I do talk to him but he's in a tournament right now so he's busy, I'll visit him when his family tells me his free "

"So he's in that Bounty list you're in, right? " Wallace asked while putting on gloves. Julian's face dropped at that question and took in a deep breath before speaking.

"Unfortunately, yes. I wish I could remember the dirtbag that's doing this. But it's like I'm forgetting something I should know, that I should remember " he said shaking his head. "Do you know what? Forget it. Let's change topic. I don't want to talk about dying soon " he said putting on a fake smile.

"OK, so another match won? "Wallace asked making Julian chuckle in gratitude for the swift change of topic.

"Obviously. Greg was easier than I thought even with his intimidating physique " Julian said.

"But you got a lot of bruises, man. It's going to take time to heal. Remove your shirt "Wallace said.

"You want to do it now? With gloves? .You haven't even treated my bruises yet. " Julian said with a mischievous smirk.

"Very tempting, Jules. But no, I know you have injuries hiding underneath your shirt too, so remove your shirt " he said making Julian chuckle but pull his shirt off.

Wallace began treating Julian as he winces in pain

"Why are you using gloves, you don't want to touch your boyfriend anymore? "Julian asked making Wallace laugh.

"No Jules. It is just... who knows what kind of germs am carrying on my hands to treat your open wounds so I will not like to give my boyfriend Tetanus " Wallace said with a laugh.
