Chapter 0293
“Not bad for a girl,” I heard a voice behind me.
I turned around to see Theo approaching me. He had scratches on his own body, but for the most part, he was barely injured. He had sweat along his bare chest and down his torso. He had a towel wrapped around his neck, collecting sweat.
He gave me a broad and dimpled smile; I’m sure he thought he sounded cute, but he was only sounding like a sexist pip
“What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest and glaring up at him.
He shrugged, leaning against the wall in front of me.
“I just mean that I’m surprised. You don’t look like much, but you have some fight in you,” he told me with a twinkle of humor in his eyes.
1 pressed my lips firmly together.
“Afraid you’re going to get beat by a girl?” I taunted.
He let out a low laugh.
“I’m not worried at all,” he told me. “I just hope you don’t hate me after I crush you.
1 rolled my eyes; he was seriously so full of himself.
“Good luck, Theo,” I murmured as I started to walk away from him.
He went to grab my arm, but I flinched away from him. If Gavin saw him touching me, he would kill Theo before I ever got the chance to beat him. He scowled at my sudden rejection and his lips pressed in a thin line as he narrowed his eyes.
“Don’t be so cocky,” he said, stepping closer to me. He was only inches away from me and I found myself holding my breath. He walked past me, brushing his arm against mine as he did so, leaving me standing there,
wdumbfounded.
I seriously needed to get out of here.
I walked away from the crowd, wanting some silence as I wandered towards the parking lot. I wasn’t sure where I was going; I had an hour to clear my head before the next match began and my head was pounding. I wrapped my arms around my body suddenly feeling cold. It wasn’t even cold outside, but my adrenaline was starting to come down and it was making me feel cold.
I let out a breath, closed my eyes, and attempted to calm my nerves. I felt a hand on my upper arm, and I turned to see Gavin standing by my side. His eyes were dark as they poured into mine. I stared at him like he was some kind of angel coming down to help me.
