 --Another chapter is up! Wooo

All i'm going to say is get ready. 

Chapter 20!!!

‘Harder’. Twist and hit. ‘Harder’ nodding to the glove. Smack! ‘Good. Again’ I hit the glove several more times before stopping. I look up and see Sam smiling. ‘You’re getting stronger, let’s go have a break’ Sam adds nodding to the bench where our stuff was. I sit down next to my bag and take a good long drink from my superman drink bottle. Don’t judge me…

I felt Sam’s eyes as I lower my head again and turn around as he smirks. ‘What?’ I ask.

I could see his eyes sparkle so I squirt water at his face before he could make fun and his expression immediately differs. I rest my head against the wall and laugh at him.

‘No it’s okay, it’s refreshing’ he says grinning tilting his chin down and shakes his head so it went on me. I get up and turn cautious as I see Sam hold something behind his back.

‘What’s that……?’.

‘Snow’ he says. I laugh again frowning still  keeping a close eye as we walk closer to the center of the room. Sam makes the first move and I feel…….. nothing wet?

I open my eyes and look down, gasping. ‘Sam! What the hell?’ I shout as he keeps laughing. This was that white powder they use to have better grip on the weights…. And I had it all over the front of me, I was turned into a snow man. But I saw my opportunity and squeeze my bottle tight all over his back and hair.

But before I could even think I feel arms wrap around my lower legs and I’m lifted. Not long after that I’m actually slung over his shoulder….. oh, and upside down! No. you didn’t.

‘Are you kidding me!’ I yell crossing my arms. ‘Nope’.

I look up and see the room move, okay crossing arms was a bad idea I instinctually wrapped my arms around his torso, as I’m being taken, who knows where. ‘You know I’m pretty sure this is illegal’ I tell him, the awkward thing was my head was just above his ass. It was actually a pretty nice….

‘I checked, it isn’t’ he chuckles and I frown. ‘Well in my head it is, and at the moment you are breaking a law’. This way I could actually really feel all his torso muscles, well six pack and all….

‘Oooooo’ he says sarcastically like he was afraid of breaking my laws.

Suddenly he stops and without any warning! Drops me backwards!

The breath leaves my lungs for a couple of seconds from the panic, as I land on a mat. My eyes were squeezed tight ready for the still awaiting impact and broken back but it never came. I think I had stopped moving….

I peek my left eye open and see Sam sitting down next to me without much of an expression. Casually give me a heart attack, is what I wanted to say like the cool and collected person I was. But it seemed my breath had really been knocked out of me.

Sam was simply staring into my eyes as I was simply lying there. What the hell was wrong with me? I open my mouth and what comes out?

‘My mum wants to invite you over for dinner Saturday night’.

Sam’s eyes go wide obviously not expecting my random shot of verbal vomit. I really wanted to smack my head and cover my eyes, maybe I could wish hard enough to teleport my body someplace else….

‘I would love to come to dinner’.

‘Huh?’ probably with a stupid expression on my face.

One side of Sam’s mouth turns up in a crooked smile and I think my eyes flutter. ‘I said-…’. ‘No I know what you said I was just asking if you were bullshitting me’ I explain stupidly. Get me out of here! Throw me across the room, was it me or was the air heating up? Did the sun just come out of the clouds?

Wait… why was he leaning closer to me. The kiss he gave me on the forehead comes to mind and I can see now it really did happen, because the feelings I was experiencing in this short moment felt a whole lot the same as it did then.

‘No bullshit… I promise’ he reaches down and wipes some powder away from the corner of my eyes that was irritating me. Did I just die?

Sam’s Pov.

I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face as I returned from escorting Em out of the warehouse, it had been a good training session but I think we got too carried away. Well… I did.

She did look pretty cute though covered in talcum powder…. And I was invited to her house on Saturday. A reminder comes up on my screen and I swear under my breath. I couldn’t linger here any longer, I had a meeting with Quinn.

‘Don’t be late Sammy’ his smile was wicked and I didn’t trust a hair on his body. ‘Don’t call me that’ I whisper under my breath and was already so much more tense. Think about Emily, think of what you would have saved her from going through with this sick horny bastard. ‘Just tell me when it is and I’ll be there’ I tell him impatiently.

He walks around me slowly looking me up and down, something about this unnerved me. But I stood strong, I knew how to act.

‘You’re strong…. But I’m afraid not strong enough for this particular Saturday’.

My heart stops for a full five seconds before he completes the circle around me and I’m composed. Quinn gives me a last and final stern look. ‘8 o’clock you need to be there, half an hour later it starts. You know what will happen if you mess up and if you may lose’.

He smiles.
