I wake up when I feel my phone buzzing in my pocket. I quickly reach into my pocket and grab it before answering.

"Hello?" I ask, my voice hoarse.

"Make sure you're ready. Julio will be there with a few other leaders, make sure you impress them. If you don't, well you know what will happen." Seth speaks.

"Wait him and-" I ask but hear the line go dead. I groan but crawl over Mason carefully, trying not to wake him up. After struggling to get over him I finally off of the couch. I was getting ready to grab my things when someone whispers my name. I turn around to see Noah looking at me with messy hair.

"Where are you going?" He asks.

"Um, I have things to do... Tell everyone I said thank you and have Mason text me." I tell him, picking up my purse.

He nods then turns around to go back to sleep.

I head down the stairs and shut the door behind me as I walk out to my car. Deciding to go to the gym I grab my phone and call my trainer, Matt.

"Hey Matt, are you free right now for a session?" I asked pulling out of Brianna's neighborhood.

"Yeah, come on in, there's nobody really in today." Matt says politely.

"Okay see you in a few!" I say before hanging up.

I drive over to the gym quickly so that I have a few hours to practice for tonight. I don't know who I'm up against or when my competition is. And if Julio is going to be there watching me, I need to be at my best. I can't risk disappointing him, I could get hurt, people I care about could get hurt if I fail him, I need to win tonight.

I make it to the gym and head to the locker room to change before starting my training. After I tied my hair up I head out to the boxing area to find Matt practicing his right and left hooks.

"Hey Matt." I say interrupting him.

"Hey Tes, I was just waiting for you." Matt replies giving me a smile.

I nod my head. " Okay so I have a fight tonight and I need to be at my best." I tell him, Matt knows that I street fight, I mean I had to tell him so he knows what moves I need to practice and learn.

"Okay let's start you off with some sparring." Matt says leading us over to the mat.

Two hours later we we're both sweating and Matt had multiple bruises forming in places all over his body.

"Tessa you really need to consider doing this professionally, because damn you're good at it!" Matt says taking off his gloves.

I chuckle. "Thanks Matt but you know that's not my kind of fighting."

"Yeah. Well great work today! I have an appointment with another client in about twenty minutes so I'm gonna go take a break. Good luck tonight see you next week!" Matt says heading into his office.

"Bye!" I shout after him.

I go into the locker room and take a quick shower before leaving the gym and heading home. I'm planning on spending the rest on my day resting so that I'm ready for tonight's matches. Once I'm home I head upstairs and lay down to watch some tv, but soon I fall asleep.

"Tessa!" Someone screams my name causing me to jolt out of bed.

I quickly get out of bed and race downstairs to see Hailey and Chloe sitting at island talking.

"Yeah?" I ask.

"Do you know what time it is?" Chloe asks.

I look at the clock to see that it's 7:22 pm. I silently curse then race up to my room. The tournament starts at 7:45 pm and I have to get there early so I can warm up and find myself a fight.

I look around in my closet until I find my usual fighting outfit and then I head back downstairs. As I'm about to leave Hailey calls my name.

"Yeah?" I ask again for the second time tonight.

"Be careful you remember what happened last week, and don't push yourself!" She says before pulling me into a hug.

I laugh lightly before pulling away, " Okay okay I'll be careful now may I please go mom?" I ask teasingly.

Hailey rolls her eyes and nods then I'm out the door.
