Chapter Twelve: TRAINING
Lorenzo agreed that I should start self defense training. But he said that I would do it with Ares. Personally I was fine with that but Ares didn't look too happy. He does have a life and most likely had plans.
I hope he doesn't hate me for it.
The Next Day...
Five days till the wedding and my first day of training.
My eyes fluttered open and I felt excitement grow inside me. Quickly I hopped out of bed and went straight to my closet. Skimming through the clothes I found the workout section.
I chose a green long sleeve crop top with black leggings and white running shoes. I went to the bathroom afterwards changed and put my hair up into a high pony.
Checking myself in the mirror I looked good. I gave myself a smile and headed into the kitchen for something to eat. I picked out a banana and granola bar.
Quickly I ate it and brushed my teeth afterwards. I didn't know where the gym was so I had to walk with Ares to it. Most likely he was already ready and waiting for me. Ares usually wakes up before me and workout before I'm even up.
I only know this because sometimes he comes back to his room and he's all sweaty. It's kinda hot but bad on my part since I stalked him that day.
I walked back to our rooms and went to Ares's door. I knocked a couple times and finally he answered.
"Good morning" he said.
"Morning" I replied while flashing him a smile. He smiled back and came out of his room.
"Are you ready for training?"
"Yes"
"Okay good, now I'll show you where the gym is." I nodded and followed him. Turns out the gym is on the other side of the house. As he opened the door you could see the gym. It was huge.
It had every equipment you could think of. Treadmill, weights, exercise bike ect.
"What do you want to start with?"
"Fighting" He nodded and walked me over to a empty section.
"Stand like this. Hold your arms out like this." He kept directing me on what to do.
"You think your ready?"
"Will I hurt you?" I asked.
"Don't worry about me"
"Definitely not" he whispered.
He probably didn't think I heard him. I shrugged it off because I wanted to learn to fight and didn't want to pick a fight, yet.
"Throw a punch" he said once I was in my position. I did what he asked and Ares didn't move, not even a little.
"Your stance is wrong" he moved me again and showed me step by step how to punch someone.
"Always try to punch someone where their the most weak"
I nodded and got back into my position. Ares was caught off guard for a second and I punched him. I hit him in his stomach on the left side. Yesterday I saw that he grabbed it after running.
"Oww, crap"
A smile appeared on my face. I was happy that I did it correct. I snapped back into reality knowing that I hurt Ares.
"Sorry I didn't mean to" I said him looking down.
"It's okay, I was just caught off guard. But overall you did good." His reply made a smile form on my face.
He complimented me. Not the way I thought his first compliment would be, but still. Definitely will never forget my first punch.
"Keep the smile on your face it looks good."
"Ohh... thank you" my cheeks rising and turning pink.
"Okay so clearly you can punch but can you fight?"
"I don't know, I can try" I said to him.
"Let's try it out, I'll start." Ares got in his stance and I did as well. He threw a punch but quickly I ducked.
"Good" When he didn't expect it I punched him, this time in his arm. Ares punched me in the stomach in response and I didn't see it coming.
"Ouch" Ares got out of his stance and walked over to me.
"I'm sorry are you okay?"
"It's fine, I mean I'm learning how to fight I can't expect not to get hurt"
"Lift up your shirt"
"Huh?"
"I need to make sure you didn't puncture anything"
"Oh okay" I lifted my shirt a little more and my bra was visible.
"Your bleeding a little, come with me". Ares took me out of the gym and brought me to the bathroom.
"Get on the counter" I did what he asked and hopped onto the counter. Ares went over to the medicine cabinet and grabbed alcohol wipes.
"Take your shirt off" A smirk appeared on his face as I took it off.
"This might sting"
He wiped the pad on me and I felt the stinging.
"Ouch" I said.
"I said it might hurt" he whispered into my ear. I felt my body start to heat up.
"It hurts a little but I know something that might calm be down"
"And what is that?"
"Kiss me"
He smirked but was definitely expecting a different response. And I most certainly wasn't going to give him what he entended, at least not yet.
