Chapter 46

Lucinda's POV

I stood across from Donavan on the orange sparing mat. I had some gloves on my hands and I had handed him his while he put them on with a scowl on his face.

I got ready and stood in the correct stance and nodded my head at him to do the same. He looked at me with a bored expression and mimicked what I was doing.

"Hit me..."

"What?"

"Hit me."

"I'm not gonna hit a girl..."

Seriously?

I moved closer to him and attempted to jab him in the jaw but he caught my fist and I tripped him. He landed on the mat with a soft thud and groaned.

He had a flabbergasted look on his face and I raised an eyebrow in challenge than stuck out my hand to help him up. He slapped my hand away then stood up.

"Now... Do you wanna hit me?"

"I don't wanna hurt you..."

I scoffed and charged at him. He hesitated for a moment not really expecting me to go directly at him but threw a punch and I blocked. I jabbed him in the abdomen and grabbed his right hand and twisted it behind his back.

He twisted out of my hold and tripped me but I took him down with me. He stayed up right and I took that as an opportunity to pin him down on the mat. I swung myself around him and got on his back causing him to loose balance and fall on the mat.

While he was still flustered I quickly got off of him and put his arm in a submission hold. I expected him to tap out by he just turned and wiggled out of my hold.

We both stood up again and we were breathing heavily with sweat dripping down our faces. I smirked and he frowned at my challenge.

"How about now?"

He chuckled dryly and advanced closer to me and punched me which I blocked but didn't notice it was a distraction and ended up jabbed in the ribs. I recovered from it and right hooked him in the jaw.

I attempted to punch him again and he caught my arm then I tried with the other and he caught it as well. He smirked at me and I decided to trip his arrogant ass. He fell backwards with me causing him to let go of my arms and I pinned them above his head with my forearm.

"Tap out.."

He smirked and to my surprise flipped us over and I found myself under him with my hands pinned above my head. I attempted to move my legs but he held them down as well.

That was when I became aware of our current position. Our breaths mingling as one and our bodies hot and sweaty. His forest green eyes stared into my mine while they pierced through my soul.

I gulped and licked my lips and I caught his eyes flicker to my lips. I found myself doing the same and a blush rose up to my cheeks. Slowly he inched closer to me and I felt his hot breath on my face and my lips parted slightly.

Every inch of me was begging him to close the space between us with no regard of consequences. A sudden shrill from the bench near us broke us out of our trance and he quickly got off me.

He cleared his throat and I bite my lip and decided to get off the mat. I walked over to my purse to retrieve my ringing cellphone. I sighed and answered.

'Yes Diego'

'Where the hell are you?! I literally told you earlier today so you wouldn't be late. It's very important!'

'Relax... I'm on my way.'

'By any chance is Donavan with you?'

I glanced at Donny from across the room where he was drinking a glass of water. We made eye contact and I looked away quickly.

'Yeah he's with me'

'Get both of your ass' here. We need you both.'

'What fo-'

He cut off the line before I could ask my question. That bitch! I scowled at my phone screen before dropping it in my purse.

"Was that Diego?"

I turned to Donny who was looking at me curiously from the call. He had a tower draped over his shoulder and his hair slightly dropping.

"Yeah. He um want us at his big... announcement."

"What big announcement?"

"I have no idea... He just told me that I shouldn't be late and apparently we're running a bit late"

"Oh... Then I guess we should get going."

A moment of awkward silence passed between us with neither looking at each other.

"Do you wanna-"

But before I could finish my sentence he cuts me off.

"Let's not talk about what just happened..."

Immediately my face fell but I quickly hid my disappointment. Wow. Turning my face stone cold I glanced at him with a bored look in my eyes.

"I was just going to ask whether you would like to take a shower... But okay."

He agreed to the shower and I showed him where the locker room was. Unfortunately they were communal showers so we each took turns in the room.

When I was done getting dressed Donny showed up in the lobby in the clothes he came with but his hair slightly damp. It was curling and sticking to his forehead and hands were itching to run my fingers through those ash-gray locks.

Restraining myself I gestured my hands to the door and followed him out. My hair was wet too so I tied it into a messy bun atop my head.

We walked in silence all the way to Tia's Café. The tension between us could be cut through with a butter knife but I just pretended like it wasn't there.

I could see he was doing the same thing while he walked idly beside me. At some point we made it back to the Café and it was pretty late in the evening so I know they had already closed it.

Once we entered through the door multiple pairs of eyes turned to us simultaneously.
