Chapter 1
It all started when Jamie and Vinny were assigned to security detail, a boxing match at Madison Square Garden, which was pretty much the best assignment they had ever gotten. It was between two of the best female boxers, Olive Hain and Bertha Debs. Olive had won 24 pro fights and Jamie was hoping this would be her 25th.
"I heard this is going to be a good one, Hain and Debs have fought before and last time it didn't end well for Hain. She ended up with a broken Jaw and 5 cracked ribs." Vinny said as people started to file into the arena.
"Hain has this, it's been years and she has fought tougher." Jamie told him.
"You've got a thing for her don't you? That makes since, she seems like your type." Vinny chuckled.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Jamie huffed.
"Nothing, it just seems like you like bossy girls, a girl that can hold her own and doesn't take anything from anyone." Vinny clarified.
"Hey if you get a bossy girl, that takes away half the decisions you have to make in life." Jamie chuckled and Vinny rolled his eyes.
"Reagan, you don't even have a girl and you're already whipped." The fight started and by round two it looked like Olive didn't stand much of a chance.
"Hain is struggling, looks like this just isn't her night." One of the announcers declared.
"She is getting killed out there." Jamie sighed and winced in sympathy as Debs landed another punch, knocking Hain to the ground. Debs continued to hit Hain while she laid on the ground. The referee pulled her off and Hain slowly made her way to her feet. They went to their separate corners and anyone could see the blood that Hain spit into her bucket as the coach got her ready for the next round. The bell rang and fists went flying, Hain hit Debs with a hard right hook and she went down with a loud thud. The crowd went silent as the waited to see if Debs would recover, but she stayed down. The bell rang and the referee held Hain's arm up in victory. The crowd went wild once again, one section cheered while the other have howled in disappointment.
"Lucky shot." Vinny said.
"That wasn't luck." Jamie retorted. The two fighter retreated to the locker rooms before the crowd departed.
"Want to go get a drink after we clock out?" Vinny questioned.
"Actually I was going to see if I could catch Hain for an autograph." Jamie told him and Vinny raised an eyebrow.
"What? It's a once in a lifetime opportunity."
"Whatever fangirl, I'll see you tomorrow." Vinny chuckled before walking away. Jamie went out into the hall and knocked on the door to the dressing room. Hain's coach opened the door.
"Can I help you officer?" He asked.
"I was just wondering if I could get Hain's autograph, I'm a big fan." Jamie beamed.
"I don't think so, she is tired and beat up pretty bad." He told him.
"Oh ok." Jamie said, trying to hide his disappointment.
"Rich, let him in." Hain ordered, Jamie walked into the locker room. Hain sat on the bench, bruised and bleeding. There was a cut above her right eyebrow and a nasty bruise forming under her left eye. Her hands, which had just been unwrapped, were turning a light shade of purple.
"That was incredible Miss Hain, I've never seen someone take a hit like that and get back up." Jamie praised. Hain smirked and she motioned for Rich to hand her a pen.
"Do you have something for me to sign officer?" She questioned. He pulled out his ticket book and handed it to her. She scribbled down her signature and gave it back to him.
"Thank you so much Miss Hain."
"No problem, thanks for what you do Officer." Jamie left with flushed cheeks. When he got outside he looked at the signature. There was a phone number and underneath it said.
Call me, Officer- Olive Hain
Jamie's heart was beating out of his chest, his favorite boxer, the girl he'd watch on tv since her career had begun, had just given him her phone number.
