This was actually intended to be a lot longer but I just wasn't satisfied with the end so I decided to split it in half, so I apologize for the shortness.

Remember to review and tell me what you guys think. It means the world to me when you guys do.

Enjoy


I was actually hoping Dave would show up alone and tell me that Marty was having second thoughts. I was REALLY not looking forward to this. Don't get me wrong, I like Marty, hell he's one of my closest friends. It's just that training Dave took my full attention for at least a month, and even then he was only competent. I just had this feeling that Marty was going to be a pain in the ass to train.

Unfortunately, both Dave and Marty walked through the door at 9 o'clock sharp. Marty was more hyped than I have ever seen him and Dave just looked at me and smirked, he knew what was coming.

Marty approached me as I was putting on my gloves. "So what are you gonna teach me first? How to throw knives or how to shoot? Or are we gon-"

"Whoa whoa whoa, slow down we're just going to start with lesson #1"

"Sounds good, what's less-" WHAM!

I hit him with a left jab and knocked him flat on his ass. I didn't hit him hard enough to cause him any real pain...yet.

The look on his face was priceless when I told him "I'm going to teach you how to take a beating"

Marty seem to take it better than I would have expected though. He continued to get up hit after hit which showed me that he really wanted it.

We sparred for 5 hours straight with only a few breaks during which I took the time to smack Dave around. I was almost enjoying myself...almost. Unlike Dave, Marty was a smart ass. Every insult or taunt I threw at him was answered with a sarcastic remark and it absolutely infuriated me. Dave said we sounded like an old married couple.

Marty and I squared of once again and this time he actually landed a punch. I glanced over at Dave while he was doing his pull ups and that was all Marty needed as he floored me. Marty was hovering over me in a second with a barrage of apologies.

I replied with "Get off of me Mary, it's no big deal."

"Gah would you stop calling me Mary!"

"I'll stop calling you that when you start acting like a man, now get ready for another round"

Once again he came back with another smart ass comment "Fine, just try not to hit me with your purse this time."

That was my breaking point. I couldn't take anymore. I charged Marty and unleashed a flurry of kicks that even Chun Li would envy. Marty fell to the ground with a busted nose, not that I cared at this point.

That's when Dave stepped in and said that we were done for the day. I started to protest, but by the looks of it Marty couldn't take much more. So we decided to call it a day.

We dropped Marty off at his house. Luckily his parents were gone for a few weeks on their anniversary cruise.

Dave Drove the rest of the way home and seeing as Marcus was working I wanted to take advantage of some alone time with Dave.

"You wanna come in and hang out for a while maybe watch a movie?"

"Actually I should be getting home, I'm kinda tired"

"Dave come on, Marcus isn't even home" I said with a wink.

He just rolled his eyes as he followed me up the steps into my house. Dave slumped onto the couch as I crawled into his lap and snuggled up next to him and selected the 1st movie I could find on Netflix. To be honest neither of us even watched the movie, I just stared at him as he silently stroked my hair. Before long we were both sound asleep.

The next thing I know someone's tapping me on the shoulder.

"Hmmm" I mumbled

"Get up. Now!"

That wasn't the voice I was expecting. My eyes flew open to reveal a very angry Marcus.
