Meet your Match

Big Day

BRI POV

I had one day until the fight, tomorrow was the big day. I was heading out to meet up with Case and train. Everyone else would be coming in tonight, Alice had already booked them hotels and had gotten Paul a room too, although I was staying at her house she knew he probably wouldn't like that when she and Emmett arrived they would be staying at her house; I knew she was right. I really didn't want to leave Paul, especially after the run-in with Brayden. I hoped in my car making the quick drive to Seattle and knocking on Alice's door, Case was already waiting and handed me a cup of coffee that I sat on the porch as we stretched.

"You ready kid."

"I hope so."

"You'll be fine."

"Yeah."

"Bri what's going on in your head, you're never this quiet."

"I saw Brayden the other day."

"Did your brother or Paul kill him?"

"No, but he did threaten me, apparently he isn't thru."

"He won't touch you." I smiled at Case and nodded as I downed the coffee and we headed towards the gym. I was so nervous, today was the big day and I was starting to question myself. I shook it off as I began doing a little more practice. I couldn't go to balls to the wall it was fight day so I had to keep my energy. After a few hours, Case and I grabbed some lunch before going to the arena. When we arrived I decided to play a mind game, no one was going to take me seriously, hell the fighters who were here were looking at me like I was out of place. I was in tight skinny jeans and a light grey hooded sweater white tank under it and some light brown uggs. I smirked as Case and I walked into my locker room; the fight was at a legit pro arena so there was plenty of extra space. I sat my bag down grabbing out my hot pink sports bra and my black fighting shorts; I grabbed my tight grey undershorts as well and walked in the bathroom and quickly changed. When I walked out I saw Case on my phone and raised my eyebrow.

"Here she is." I took the phone watching as he smiled at me.

"Hello."

"Just seeing if you made it ok."

"Thank you Paul made it fine I'm at the arena now."

"I know, we should be there in 4 hours were getting ready to leave."

"Ok be safe, plan to go well."

"Yea, you too, and good luck. See you after."

"Thank you see you after." I went to hang up when I heard his voice again.

"Brianna."

"Yea." I answered placing the phone back up to my ear.

"I love you."

"I love you too." I hung up the phone before I grabbed my iPod and placed the earbuds in my ears. I stared my playlist I always played during my fights or practice and sat on the floor. I honestly just zoned out and meditated as I waited for the fights to start. I shook back to reality as I felt my phone vibrate. I looked down seeing I had a message from Alice.

Just arrived with Emmett, your husband lol brother and Leah are here as well. Good luck have fun and watch for the armbar in the final fight mwah!- Alice

I texted her back quickly.

Thanks, for the heads up, hope I win love you guys- B

Case tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to the door. I glanced behind him and jumped up running into the arms of Paul. I jumped as he caught me and I wrapped my arms around his legs hugging him tightly before he put me on the ground kissing my head.

"How the hell did you get back here?" I questioned as he smiled holding up a badge around his neck.

"The leech." He said low enough for only me to hear. I glared at him before some short guy walked up to me.

"Uley you are next." He said curtly before walking away. It had honestly been like this all day. I was one of 6 females fighting, we were all basically getting bullied for being women and all the guys were talking shit. Some even being mean enough to threaten to hurt us, when they fought us if we didn't quit; because we didn't belong. Two girls had actually already cracked under the pressure and bailed. For me, the problem was keeping my anger in control and not going ballistic and phasing on everyone. I rubbed Paul's arm as he growled at the guy and went to step towards his retreating form.

"Babe not worth it, go back out there."

"No, I'm going." I cut him off before he could continue.

"Lahote take your ass back out there to my brother and Leah now before I make Case drag your ass after I knock you out." I grabbed his face roughly kissing his smirking as he growled in my mouth. He pulled back whispering he loved me as he left. I went to the curtain taking a  deep breath before I walked out.

I got in the ring looking at the other girl in the ring, the way the bracket was set up all the women would fight each other before they had to fight a guy, mostly they were hoping only one girl made it then bailed or was knocked out quickly. We were introduced and I quickly dodged her punch and did a spinning back fist knocking her out immediately and ending the fight. I was a little taken back not realizing I had got stronger and my hardcore training had done well. I got out and waited for my next fight.
