Chapter 25

Sorry for any mistakes :(


I was now in the car again waiting for Elliot with the air conditioner on full blast. I managed to go back and get dressed quickly and not look like I was just fighting two different people.


Elliot came back out about 12 minutes later and was back in his regular clothes.


He started up the car and drive towards his house.


"So, how did it go tonight?" I ask after a few moments if silence.


"Well, very good for me. I won all my fights tonight and semi finals is on Tuesday. It's the same damn thing this year. I am fighting sneak attack and Blue Night is going against the same guy she did last year in the semi finals. Only this year I have a feeling we are both going to beat them. Then. I don't know what the fuck I'm gonna do." He sighs and I turn my head and look out the window.


He's right and I don't want to think about it until now. Three months ago I would off gladly fight Elliot for the championship. I wouldn't have felt anything. Elliot is kind of like my second best friend now and not to mention that we have to fight as partners before it.


I push it out my thoughts because I just want to forget about Warrior's Castle right now. We haven't had the semi finals yet. It could end up completely different.


I can see how Elliot gets a crease right above his nose showing that he's in deep thought. No doubt it's about the same thing I was. It is a dead give away when he gets an angry thought and his hands tighten aroind the steering wheel.


Not thinking about it much, I grab one of his hand and pulled it off the wheel. I held his hand for comfort and laid them in between our two seats.


I gave him a short reassuring smile when he glanced at me before pulling his eyes back on the road. He squeezed my hand a little and k returned the action.


"What would I do without you little fighter?" He asked with a smirk on his face.


I grin at him at his smirk and wink he sends my way.


"So are you still staying at hotel Elliot's room tonight?" He asks with a smirk.


I laugh and once I sober up I answer, "No, I think I am going to stay at Sarah tonight. She texted me earlier and said she stay up for me." I lied.


He nods his head and drives towars his house. He parks, "Stay in here, I will go get your other bag you brought and then I'll drive you to Sarah's." With that he left and inside his house.


He dropped me off in from of Sarah's house. I would just have to wait until he leaves so I could walk to my safe house. The same house I took Elliot that night when he got shot.


"Thanks Elliot, I'll text you tomorrow or something." I say and grab my bags from his back seat and step out.


He nods his head and smiles at me, "Goodbye Little fighter."


I roll my eyes at the nick name. "Goodbye Elliot. One if these days I am going to give you a nick name."


He grins at me, "Oh, I can't wait for it Little fighter."


I laugh and close the door, "See you later Elliot. I will text you tomorrow."


He nods his head and drives off. Once he is out of sight I grab my hood from my bag. I put it on and pull my hood up.


I walked down the streets and end up at the beat up safe house of Blue Night's. I sigh and walk in and go straight to sleep with my alarm set in the morning for training with Elliot tomorrow.


Through out the whole weekend I was never late and he never tried to make me late. We went twice as hard in training because Semi finals is on Tuesday.


Elliot and me talked on the phone every night though. He would always make me laugh and that made me have a more peaceful sleep very night in the safe house the whole weekend.


I am sleeping in the safe house tonight as well for school tomorrow. I decided to sleep over at Elliot tomorrow night. He has always been sending hints that he wanted me too and it is way better then talking over the phone. I haven't talked to Sarah that much all weekend but Elliot thinks I spent the whole weekend with her and slept at her house.


I made sue that I would hang out with Sarah after semi finals because I did miss my bestie even though she has spent most of hr time with Ricky and became of that me and Elliot spend a lot if time together.


Monday went by super fast and I did spend the whole day with Elliot after school. We went out for ice cream after I went to the safe house to make sure I had my bags there and I would get them tomorrow before the semi finals.


We talked long after we were done with our ice cream and we joked around in the ice cream shop before it started getting dark and we drove to Elliot's. His parents were still at work so I don't have to be sneakers kn or anything. We went straight up to his room where he again made me a perfect bed on the floor.


I accepted his offer and decided I would sleep in his bed while he slept on the floor this time. Elliot thought it was funny to cheat the while game of Golf fish.


He had a stack of cards and asked if I wanted to plat anything. Of course he suggested strip poker and I hit him.


He chuckled and turned his arm where I hit him, "Okay, okay I don't even know how to play poker. I was just kidding. I mean unless you want to try something else involving us stripping." He responded with a smirk which made me laugh.


Elliot always would tease with things like that but he is very kind and understanding towards that. He would always then set even when I had to take off my sweat that had shorts under them. He would make sure I was comfortable on his bed until he laid on the floor.


He deffiently was not what everyone said he was at school and I am ashamed of thinking that about him before.


I looked down at a snoring Elliot on the floor. He gave me half the blankets to get me comfortable on the bed but he looked so uncomfortable on the floor with nearly any padding.


I sighed and got out of the bed. I had in one of his shirts he let me borrow and black shirt shorts.yoy couldn't even see the shorts because the shirt was long enough that it went to my mid- thigh.


"Elliot! Elliot!" I whispers yelled and shook him. His eyes shot open and looked around before looking at me. Once he saw me he sat up and looked at me with concern, "What's wrong?"


"Nothing, come into the bed. Its so uncomfortable down here and you're going to hurt your back."


"Are you sure you want me to sleep in it with you?" He asked and I nodded.


"Yes. We can put a pillow jn between us any way. Now come on." I sat and make my way back to his bed. I slip under the cover and put a pillow tot aide in the center of the bed.


I felt Elliot get in bed and under the covers and I sighed before closing my eyes and drifted off to sleep.


I hope you liked. This was a filler chapter, I know but the next chapter will be the first chapter of the semi finals. The semi finals will continue in chapter 27 as well.
