Just Another Experiment

Chapter Seven

Trance, Pride, Erin, and I walk to the training room. I am not in pain today. Hopefully I won't be in pain again after the fight. We walk in. I have my haired tied up. I am wearing my pink lipstick and eyeliner. I am wearing my tight tank top and a new pair of tight jeans. I am also wearing my boots. We try to keep our distance from Jack and Minzie.

    Dare is standing in the middle of the room like always. He is wearing a tank top with a pair of jeans. He wears a pair of bouts. I look away. I can not get distracted by him. Especially in fighting. My name is first to fight him. It is probably because I didn't fight him yesterday. "Okay. First up today is Lynne." He smiles. "Remember to try your hardest everyone." I frown.

    I walk up to the platform. I put my hands up to show I am ready to fight. He smirks. He throws a punch at me. I dodge and spine. I elbow him in the back. He turns and drop kicks me. He is about to kick me but I kick him in the leg. I see him wince. I stand up and punch him in the jaw. It hurts my hand. I kick him in the ribs but before I could he catches my leg. I drop it and punch his gut. he groans. I finally find an opportunity to kick him. I kick him in the ribs as hard as I could. He throws a punch at me. It hits me straight at the jaw. I fall. My mouth is bleeding. I push away the pain and get up. I drop kick him and kick him in the side. He rolls and gets up. He tries to kick me but I catch his leg. I punch his leg and he groans. I drop his leg and punch his jaw again. He falls to the floor. I put my hands up in front of me just in case he tries to punch me again. He stays down. I put my hands down and back away from him. He slowly gets up. His mouth is bleeding just as fast as mine.

    He wipes his mouth. "You... win...Lynne." He says is through breathes. I nod and walk toward where Pride, Trance, and Erin are-with their mouths wide open and their eyes are wide. I lean against the wall with one foot up. My arms are crossed. I keep having to wipe blood from my mouth. Dare writes my name in the first slought. "That is enough fighting for today. Training is dismissed early." His voice is scratchy and tight. Everyone walks out.

    Before I go through the doors Dare calls my name. I wince. I know what is going to happen. He is going to yell at me. I turn around and walk toward him. "What do you want?" I hiss at him. "I am sorry. I underestimated you since you are a Stiff and a girl. Nice fighting." He nods at me. I give him a glare. " You think I could just forgive you since you thought I was weak!" I scowl at him. "Well, you are wrong! Just because you are my instructor doesn't mean I have to be nice to you and be your friend!" I am yelling now. "I am leaving now." I say it quietly. I turn to leave but something weird happens. He grabs my wrist. He turns me around so I am facing him. I try to pull myself free but I am not strong enough. I look into his eyes. They are twinkling. I freeze. We just stare at each other for a couple minutes. He cups his hands on my cheeks. He pulls me toward him. I don't know what's going on, but I like it.

    I don't know what gets into me but I place my hands on his waist. I realize at that moment that I like him. He is brave and strong. He pulls my face closer to his. So close we share the same breathe. He pulls me closer to him. His chest is now against mine. He brushes his lips against mine. I freeze. He hesitates. I put my hands on his chest and push myself away. He eyes stay on me. I shake my head. "I'm sorry about that." He says softly. His face looks as red as Pride's lipstick. My cheeks become warm. Hopefully it is not noticeable. "Lets just pretend like that didn't happen." I say it softly. He nods. I look down at the floor. I turn around and walk out the door. What just happened?

    I walk into the dormitory. Trance, Pride, and Erin look at me when I walk in. I walk toward them. "Hi guys." I say it soft and quiet. "What happened in there?" Pride asks. "He scolded me for beating him up like that." I shrug. "I am starting to think he deserved it." All of them laugh. "He scowled you for doing something you were suppose to?" Trance asks while still laughing. I nod. "He is an idiot." I say while laughing myself. I hope that is a good enough excuse.
