Innocently Falling

CHAPTER 28: Teflon

He sigh and hugged me. "I can't help but get worried love. The other day you had an anaphylactic shock and the-"

He is gearing up to rant again so I stop him by covering his mouth with my hands.

"Almost Gideon. Almost! It is not a full blown anaphylactic shock. See! I am okay!"

"This the plan. I will go back to work after lunch and then I'll go straight back to my apartment after work. I'll call you immediately when I arrive at my apartment. Deal?"

He did not say anything so it means he agreed.

How can he say anything Ella. Did you forget you covered his mouth?

Yup I forgot. I immediately remove my hands from his lips. Need to divert his attention!

"I heard the bell did you hear it? No? Ok. Round 2 is starting you better step away I might hit you with my tornado punch."

I saw him mouth "What the Fudge"
Huh. Maybe he heard the bell but just in denial that's why he curses.
Same Gideon. Same.

I ignore Gideon because my opponent tried a Jab. This motherfudger will get it.

I just heard the door closes. Good I can more focus now.

TIME SKIP:JUST A FEW MINUTES

I lie on the bed exhausted. I lost. I only lasted 6 rounds. That cheater. I need a rematch.

I am hungry.

I open the door to hunt some food as I open the door 5 sets of eyes immediately stare at me all of them slide their stare to my legs.

Sheep.

I forgot I am wearing Gideon's shorts. I wave at them and go back to the room immediately.

I was leaning on the door when it suddenly opened. I almost fell down on the floor face first if no one grab my waist to catch me.

This is not the day for broken noses. I've reach my quota for injuries already.

"Sorry love. I did not see you."

I turn to face him and retorted.

"Of course you will not see me. I am on the other side of a solid object not unless you have X-Ray vision. Do you?"

I look at Gideon suspiciously.

"You'll never know Love." He shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly.

Gasp! My theories are coming to life! But I needed more evidence.

He entered the room and lock the door.

"Love why did you went out of the room? I thought boxing is 12 rounds"

" I lost in round 6" I shrug my shoulders.

"I am sorry you lost Love. Maybe next time you'll win." He sympathizes.

"I'll get my revenge don't worry."

"Uhuh. Good. Love since you have bandages to your legs I ordered an outfit for you. You can change in the bathroom"

"I am hungry."

"After you change we will eat okay?"
I nodded in response.

He grab a paper bag on the bed that I did not notice at all and gave it to me.

"I'll be waiting outside."

He went swiftly out of the room.

I finish changing my clothes
