The noise from the televison filled my small but cozy house.I was renting it from a lovely elderly couple who needed the extra money.

I sweep the wooden floors as my eyes kept drifted to the animation movie that was playing on the tv.

A low bang from the front door had my back stiffening and ready for a fight. I let out a sigh as Nates blonde hair came into view.

"Wow you're entering my home like it's yours" I noted

The living room and kitchen were conjoined making me see a giddy looking Nate strut to the kitchen.

He looked up sheepishly before taking a beer in the fridge. I didn't even like beer, it was because this idiot comes over all the time had me resort to buying it.

He shrugged before popping the can to gulp down the cool liquid. When he was done drinking it, he flew it into the trashcan barley missing it.

"What's yours is mine" he laughed. I scowl at him before flying the broom to hit him. But it missed causing Nate to burst into fits of laughter.

"Damn Ace must've done a number on you for your aim to be this suckish" he mocked tapping the counter as he laughed.

The mention of Ace made my mood turn sour. It's been four days and I couldn't stop thinking about stabbing him every minute.

"Don't fucking mention him! I still haven't forgiven you for what you did that day" I spat out glaring a hole into his skull. Well I hoped it could make a hole.

"Hey what did I do?" Nate yelled sending his hands up in exaggeration.

"Exactly! You didn't do anything, you were supposed to be asking Paul questions but instead your dumbass was making friends" I roared.

"Hey this is the way I work, it was supposed to make him open up to me so that he could tell me the truth!" He grumbled

"Oh and how did that work out for you?" I asked in mockery. My tone was fierce.

"Not because papa Nathan is the chief of police doesn't mean you won't one day get in trouble for your stupidity " I added.

Nathan was his dad he was also my foster father who took me in when Robert murdered mine. He and his wife Naty had always been family since they were my parents bestfriends.

Nathan though took their deaths hard because he was the one who put my parents on Robert's case, he was blaming himself even though it wasn't his fault.

Nate's face turned into hurt before he masked it. But I had already seen it and now I was regretting uttering those words to him.

"Maybe you should get laid Ryn maybe it's the reason you're in this foul mood" Nate grumbled. My eyes softened as I studied him.

"Nate I'm sorry I'm just frustrated " I whispered and walked towards him to engulf him in a hug.

He nodded before moving out of my hug. "That's okay , but maybe you should really consider getting laid"

I slapped his shoulder laughing " I don't need to sleep with a guy Nate"

He shrugged "a bunch of us are going to the bar tonight, you should come, maybe you'll find a guy to take that v card of yours." He laughed

It was true I was still a virgin even though I had dated plenty of guys. They never turned me on to the point that I wanted more.It just never escalated to that and sometimes I thought I was a lesbian for not being sexually attracted to them, but that thought flew out when I realized that I didn't have an ounce of attraction for the same sex.

"Shut the fuck up Nate I don't need to have sex!" I grumbled and punched his gut. He groaned rubbing where I had harmed.

"Fine but I'm telling you , you're missing out" he shrugged.

Five hours later, Nate had left to go to the bar and I was now alone in my home. I put on my black boxing gloves and strut towards the punching bag that was placed in the corner of the living room.

After repeatedly punching it until I felt my fist ache I stopped to go and have a shower. I was now relaxed after punching that bag and picturing Ace's face whilst ramming my fist on it.

A crunching sound outside got my attention as I got out of the shower. I was still dripping wet as I stood still trying to listen intently. When I didn't hear anything else I sauntered to my bedroom.

After putting on my pink minnie mouse pajamas I stride to the living room. I on the TV and began to watch dragonballz. I was in the middle of cursing at vegeta when the crunching sound disturbed me.

I lowered the volume and got up to walk to the sliding door that led to the back yard. I examined it to see if there was anything out of the ordinary, I returned back to the sofa after seeing everything normal and continued watching anime.

It was when the sound of the sliding door being pushed open I realized that I hadn't locked it. I dived for my gun I always placed under the table but a forced knocked me down before I could. A weight was now preventing me from going further.

I reached back and gripped the persons hair pulling at it with such force some strands came out. A masculine groan was heard before some weight remove,making me turn to face the intruder. Ace's face came into view and I swang my fist hitting him square in the jaw.

A popping sound could be heard and I withdraw my hands only to swing my fist again viciously. Ace'a face wrenched backwards but he quickly grip my hands before I could go for another blow.

He pulled back groaning in pain "Damn you really do hit like a man"
