Audrey's p.o.v : "Rey, you'll have to do me a favor tonight " Brandon said taking my bag from my shoulder and swinging it over his. He was buttering me up so that I would do him the favor but god it felt so good to get that weight lifted of my shoulder. "Nuh uh not happening"I said while walking and massaging my shoulder. "But you haven't even heard the favor I was gonna ask you yet" he whined. "You'll make me do your dirty smelly laundry on Sunday when the maids don't come, am not doin it" I said. "No it's not that stupid , I want you to come to an underground fight with me today since Bianca is gonna go clubbing tonight cause it's Friday, she wanted me to stay with you but my friend invited me to this fight and I really wanna go and I can't leave you alone , so pleaseeeeeee come with me little sis" Danny said pleading and ending his rant . An underground fight. Wow sounds cool I mean I have never been to one but I know there will be violence, maybe blood too and I am not a fan but I am really curious and excited and you know I wanna see what all of these people enjoy in there because of every- "Am I getting an answer from you any time soon Rey?" Danny asked with an arched eyebrow. "Sure !" I said enthusiastically and be looked at me weirded out. "Well that was easy, I expected you demanding a carton of gummy bears for this favor" he said Aww man, I shouldn't have agreed that easily, I should've demanded a lot of goodies from him. Sighs. Regrets, regrets. "I have 20k placed on you Damien, don't let me down" The bald man who was one of the spectators in tonight's match said placing a hand on Damien's shoulder. "Take your money back" Damien simply said while wiping the sweat off his forehead after the intense workout session he had. "What?" The man asked in bewilderment. "I said take your f*****g money back and place it on someone who you are sure on would win and you won't have to say 'don't let me down' too!" Damien hissed in his face. "B..b..ut I know you'll win that's why I..I... Placed my money on you" the man said gulping and backing up from Damien. "Then why the f**k would you tell me not to let you down? I don't f*****g take orders from you!" Damien shouted at his face. "O..o..okay c..c..c..calm down Damien, y..y...you are the b..best fighter here okay" the man said, cold sweat crawling down his forehead. "Good. Now keep that in mind and get lost." Damien said. Damien hated it when people told him to not let them down. Has he ever? besides that 'don't let me down' only lowered people's confidence. If you don't trust someone enough then don't risk something on them or for them, take the risk for or on those whom you trust just don't say 'don't let me down', it's annoying. That was Damien's philosophy regarding it. Wanting to get a nice chilled Redbull and a look at tonight's match crowd Damien stepped out of the training room and into the main area. There was a two against one match going on for which the crowd was cheering. Most of them cheering for the one who stood alone against two but too bad for him and them, he was getting badly beaten and this made Damien tsk in disapproval. This is what happens when you think with your ego. Sighing Damien made his way towards the soda and drinks machine, avoiding and shrugging of all the ring girls who were throwing themselves at him. One would think they are desperate and truly need money to pay for their education or house bills but most of them are just hoes throwing themselves at fighters when not even needed. Damien was disgusted by them. Upon reaching the drinks machine Damien noticed a petite figure crouching down and looking under the machine for something, this was blocking Damien from getting his drink. He cleared his throat as to get the person's attention but it didn't work as the girl was really engrossed in looking for something under the machine and so Damien tapped her shoulder to get her attention which he succeeded in. "Oww" the girl hissed out in pain as she accidentally hit her head on the machine while getting it out from under it. What Damien saw next was something he did not anticipate at all. It was that stupid girl, Audrey. What the f**k was she doing here !? "I am sorry I was jus- oh Damien, I didn't expect you to be here, what are you doing here at this place!?" Audrey beamed at him, excited that she found him there. Look who's asking. Were Damien's blunt thoughts. "What am I doing here? I fight here, what in the hell are you doing here Audrey? This is not at all a place for you !" Damien said or more like shouted in exasperation which made Audrey pout. "Hey don't be mean to me, I didn't know you were an underground fighter plus I came here with my brother Brandon" Audrey said. Now the realization dawned upon Damien. She was the all famous Brandon Desmond's sister, the little one whom no one had met. She is the polar opposite of her two elder siblings. She didn't even know he is an underground fighter, everyone in the college knew that !. She is simply dense. Damien thought. "So where is your brother ?" Damien asked folding his arms on his chest which made his muscles more prominent and made him look more intimidating. "Oh he is right the-" Audrey stopped mid-sentence and frantically started looking here and there when she couldn't spot Brandon where she left him. "Right... he is nowhere and you're alone in an underground rink, do you have any idea how dangerous it is ?" Damien scolded her and he was truly angry at her for coming and at Brandon for bringing her to such place and leaving her all alone. By this time Audrey could not control the tears that were at bay which she had been blinking away and they were now freely flowing down her rosy cheeks. She was very intimidated by the crowd and the weird strangers and she did not know how she would get home or find Brandon, she even forgot her phone at home. Right now the only comfort she had was Damien. "Hey hey hey Audrey stop crying, it's okay no need to worry, we'll find your brother okay ?" Damien said in a soft voice trying to console her. Yet again surprising himself. He just could not see the tears in her eyes. She looked like a distressed puppy. Damien moved closer and swung his arm around her shoulder and brought her closer to him and she leaned her head on his arm. "What were you looking for under the machine anyway ?" Damien asked her as she calmed down. "My 2 euros fell from which I was gonna buy a drink and now I can't find them " she mumbled out and Damien nodded. He then went to the machine getting two drinks, one for her and another for himself. "Hey, Damien! It's your fight now" Rohan shouted from afar. What am I gonna do with this little thing here now Damien grumbled in his head looking down at Audrey who was still stuck on his side with damp eyelids, sipping her Power Rey. "Rohan come here !"Damien shouted out calling for Rohan who pushed his way towards them. "You have to take her and keep an eye on her" Damien instructed Rohan, gesturing towards Audrey. "You want me to babysit her" Rohan asked pointing between himself and Audrey a little surprised of what Damien was asking him to do. "Umm no.... Ok yeah, kind of" Damien said scratching the back of his neck. "But dude I just had a set up with one of those ring girls, she'll be waiting for me in the locker room..... And who is she anyway?" Rohan asked a little annoyed looking at the girl who looked totally out of place with her iron man sweatshirt. "I don't f*****g care about your blow job, you take her and take care of her till I am done with the fight" Damien sternly said in a voice that screamed 'no room for anymore argument'. "There goes a 20 in your swear jar....." Audrey muttered out and Damien looked down at her with a 'what the hell' face. Of course, she has a swear jar ..... "Hi, I am Audrey! Nice to meet you" she said in a chirpy voice extending her hand towards Rohan. "Rohan, can't say the feeling is mutual since you're keeping me from my ring girl" Rohan said shaking Audrey's hand. "Oh no it's totally fine I'll come with you to the ring girl, you guys can meet and even I can say hello to her, then you Guys can spend time with each other and I'll quietly sit in the corner... Or I'll befriend her so next time if I come here I'll have a friend and then-" Audrey was cut short of her excited rant of making a new friend by Damien. "You're blabbering Audrey and no you can't befriend the ring girl" Damien said with certainty. She wanted to go with Rohan to the ring girl... She has no idea about what Rohan and the ring girl were up to. She is truly dense. "But I-" Audrey wanted to protest at not letting her befriend the ring girl but was yet again cut short. " No Audrey, no befriending the ring girl here" Damien said with a slight glare this time which shut Audrey up. "Take her to the very first bench in front of the rink and sit with her" Damien ordered Rohan and he nodded ushering Audrey towards him. "Dude , she dense" Rohan commented to Damien and Damien nodded in agreement. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
