AMELIA POV

''Left, right, left, right!'' I watched as my boyfriend was punching the mitts of the trainer. I noticed that sweat was starting to form on his forehead. Just by looking at him made me feel thirsty. I decided to get us both a cold water. I stood up and walked towards the canteen. On my way I heard two girls having a conversation. Well to be specific, I heard my boyfriend's name and that's what got my attention. I hid in the corner, behind the wall and started eavesdropping. Don't judge me.

''I heard that he has a match tomorrow with Maddox. Do you think Ryker is going to win?'' I heard one asking to the other. ''Of course, he is going to win. I mean, I did promise him a wild night as a gift if he came back as a winner.'' They both started laughing. ''Oh man, only if his girlfriend knew the meaning of his 'warming up', before his match started.'' I heard their footsteps as their voices became more distant until I heard nothing.

Is he cheating on me? One thing is that I don't like hearing one side of the story. I decided to stay quiet. I will find out more tomorrow.

I then remembered what my first purpose was by coming here. I walked over to the fridge and grabbed two bottles of cold water. When I was back at the kickbox hall, I saw him sitting on the bench resting. I sat beside him and handed him over one bottle. He looked at me and smiled ''thank you baby.'' He planted a kiss on my cheek and drank the whole bottle in a few seconds. ''Are you nervous about tomorrow?'' I asked him.

He shook his head no. ''I've been waiting for this moment. I'm ready to knock him out.'' He directed his gaze at me. ''You are coming, right?'' I nodded. ''The match starts 7.30 at night. I reserved a seat for you at the front. You don't have to worry about that.''

I frowned. ''Can I not come with you together?''

His eyes grew bigger for a  second and it was back to normal. ''That's not necessarily. I must be there way earlier, get prepared and warm up.''

'Oh man, only if his girlfriend knew what his of warming up meant.' I heard the voice back in my head again. Only way to find out... I must be there early too. He doesn't have to know. It will be a 'surprise'. ''Amelia?'' He snapped his fingers in front of me, distracting me from creating my master plan. I felt bad for not telling him what I've witnessed, but I can't risk it by telling him. What if it's true and he will change his plans tomorrow?

Ryker has been my boyfriend for almost a year. We do know each other for over two years. Everything has been perfect. We never fighted, which is a surprise for me and everyone. I never expected our relationship to be so perfect.

''Amelia!'' I jumped a little from his hard voice. I looked at him with big eyes. ''Only God knows what's going on in that pretty head of yours.''

He sighed when I didn't reply. ''Come on baby, it's late. I'll bring you home.'' I took my phone out of my pocket and saw that he was right, it was almost midnight. We both stood up and walked to the car.

I leaned my head against the window and listened to the song playing on the radio. Watching every house, we were passing by. We finally arrived in front of my house. I undid the seat belt and went to open the door, but he stopped me by pulling me back. ''No kiss?'' He pouted. With everything going on in my mind, I can't lie, he did look cute doing that. I rested my arms on his shoulders and pulled him closer. I pecked his lips and quickly got out of the car. I waved at him and he drove away. I sighed and opened the door and walked inside.

''I have been sitting here for a damn hour. Where were you?!'' My younger brother, Aiden came running from the living room. Well that is new, he never waited for me unless... Here it comes. ''Forget me asking that. My dear little sister, can you convince Ryker and ask him if I can come along with you to the match tomorrow?'' That was not what I expected. I was ready to tell him off and ask dad for money. I started laughing and shook my head slightly. ''I don't know.''

''Please, I will buy you Ben & Jerry's. I promise.'' He begged me. That offer does change a lot though. ''Alright, I can't promise you anything, but I will ask him.''

''Thank you, thank you, thank you!'' he hugged me and started running upstairs.

''Wait! Why do you want to come to this match? You never wanted to come before.'' I asked him curiously. He declined lots of my invites before, to the matches of Ryker.

''Because he is fighting against Maddox. No one has ever beaten him before. I need to see one of his fights in real life! The tickets were sold out in one hour!'' He explained in a dramatic way and his arms all over the place. ''But then I found out that it is your boyfriend who he is fighting against. I knew you could mean something for me.'' Now he was smirking evilly. He then turned around and continued walking upstairs. Little brat.

I pulled my phone out and decided to ask Ryker before I forgot.

If only you knew that it wasn't for you, he was coming for.

I heard my phone vibrate again and saw another message of him, but I didn't bother opening it. I put my phone on the nightstand and closed my eyes.
