After using my day off work to spend time with my petty aunt Karen i was emotionally and physically drained so I bought a bottle of whiskey and locked myself up in the house.
I wanted the music loud and left to be alone with my thoughts. God knows I had enough debatable ones today.
My phone started ringing with a number I didn't know and I just stared at it. Answering that could go both ways.
Grumbling I lifted the phone to my ear "cat and dog home" it was silent on the other end but before I pulled the phone away from my ear I heard the voice "Leigh? I might have the wrong number"
I laughed loudly unable to help myself "it's me Tommy what's up?" I heard the low chuckle and grinned pouring a massive drink.
"You home? Sorry I haven't been around lately iv been driving myself into the ground trainning" I hummed swollowing the drink making my eyes scrunch up.
"Don't be silly I don't expect to be your new emergency contact but yeah I'm home what's up?" He chuckled again and I heard a door slam "I'm coming over"
"Wai-" the phone cut off and I groaned in frustration. I just wanted to drink and be grumpy! I poured another glass and parked it on the table next to the bottle in defeat.
15 minutes past and he was knocking on the door, when he saw the drink in my hand he frowned in confusion "you drink?"
I gave him a bored look and walked back into the kitchen with him following behind "no I'm just holding this for shits and giggles" he smirked shaking his head as he took a seat.
"So sarcastic, what's happening?" It must have been obvious, like an open book "nothing, i went out today with my aunt sent from Satan himself to torture me"
He laughed and took his glass when I slid it over "so drink with me!" He shrugged and tossed it back easily placing it back down on the table.
"Do you want to talk about it?" He must be the only guy in a 50 mile radius that wanted to talk about anything. He was a weird one "no, too depressing. What's wrong with you?"
"Honestly? I was working out again and couldn't keep you out of my head" he tossed the drink back again but my eyes widened making him laugh "don't worry I was just wondering what you were doing"
I laughed shaking my head pouring more drinks "trying to get me drunk?" A grin spread on my face and I honestly was thankful I never told him to stay away. This was way better than a pity party.
"Trying to get me drunk, but if you can't handl-" he snatched his glass away when I tried to take it back and I grinned.
"Could we sit somewhere else? I'm way too big for these chairs" he wasn't kidding. I scanned him quickly and shook my head "sorry no more seating plans princess"
He leaned across the table smirking "sure you have a bed, princess" I shook my head grinning and grabbed the bottle "come on, sofa will do"
He chuckled darkly following back into the living room. I turned the music down a little and filled our glasses up before I sat down groaning at how comfortable it was.
We must have sat there laughing and talking complete shit for hours, we both got drunk and I was actually having a good night concidering my day.
When none of us had said anything for a while Tommy turned to look at me "what happened today?" I groaned making him laugh.
"It's a really long story" he shrugged and I shook my head looking away from him. I wasn't ready for this "what if I told you something you could never tell anyone? Will you tell me then?"
I looked back to see if he was serious but he didn't look like it was a joke "I was in the army.. my whole troop was killed" my jaw fell open in shock.
"You know something? That makes so much sense" he frowned but I just shrugged "I mean the trainning for so long and just the way you are. You're a solider, it makes sense"
He nodded but kept looking at me "your turn" shit.. mines was so much worse! "Ehm.. well the aunt I was with? Shes the only family I have, I'm an orphan and it was my fault. She just reminds me of it. She looks like my mum"
He frowned before sitting up "I'm sure it wasn't your fault" I could only shake my head. It was my fault, everyone knew it.
"My dad? He was, just incredible. He helped people and trusted everyone, couldn't have met a nicer human" I looked away from him clenching onto my glass a little tighter.
"What about your mum?" I snorted and shook my head just thinking of the kind of person she was.
"She was sarcastic and cold. She twisted everything and used the people who loved her" his eyebrows shot up in surprise.
"I knew who she was and I gave her the smoking gun that took all their lifes" I tossed the drink back and poured another before I looked at him "how?"
He was so curious and I had no idea why I was so OK with telling him... "I saw my dad with another woman and told her. That night she burned the house down trying to kill us all"
I shook my head ignoring the same crushing in my chest "the woman worked in life insurance, he wasn't cheating on my mum. He was protecting me and Jay incase she had another blip that he couldn't survive" I put the glass down and sat up clearing my throat.
"I don't want to talk about this anymore" I ran my finger's through my hair feeling frustrated, I hate that I trust him! "Leigh, that wasn't your fault" I snorted shaking my head. He knew it was my fault, I knew.
"Come 'er" he pulled me to his side wrapping an arm around my shoulder. He smelt so good I didn't even try and stop him. Good one Leigh, get some restraint for your mind.
I could hear his heart speed up and frowned trying to listen "Leigh" I quickly snapped out of it and looked up at him.
He cupped my jaw using his thumb to trace my bottom lip before he leaned closer and I froze for half a second in panic. I wanted him to kiss me, but not now that he had ammo to use against me if anything ever went wrong..
His lips pressed against mine dissolving any panic from my mind. He pulled away too quickly searching my face for something.
"I couldn't help myself" his husky voice made my stomach flutter and I closed the small distance to kiss him again, I had no idea what I was thinking but so much ran through my head so quickly I couldn't single anything out.
I opened my mouth a little and traced his bottom lip with my tongue asking for more. He let out a growl and started kissing me hungrily.
I was enjoying this way too much, I felt like a teenager making out after school. I suppose the only difference is I'm not a teenager and I can do want I want..
When I pulled away for breath he rolled his head back on his shoulders. He was so fucking sexy it was frustrating! Since he played part in me ruining it with joey I was cashing in that chit.
I climbed over him and straddled his thighs taking him by surprise "Leigh" I hummed and leaned closer before I ducked my head down and kissed his muscular shoulder.
When he didn't push me off I started working my way along and up to his ear "you started it" I nibbled his earlobe and grinned when his hands grabbed my waist roughly.
I leaned back and kissed his jaw before I wrapped my fingers in the hair on the back on his head and locked my lips with his.
His tongue tasted like whiskey and I moaned into his mouth when he squeezed my ass tight sliding me closer. One of his hand's ran under my t-shirt and up my spine pulling me flush against his chest.
When he left my lips to kiss down my throat I tried to make my foggy brain work. He stopped kissing me and leaned back chuckling, I'm glad he's was having fun.
"We shouldn't be doing this, too many drinks" I groaned but nodded with a cheeky grin before trying to slid back. His hands gripped my hips holding me in place "you're going to be a problem for me"
I bit into my lip and inched closer "mmm, possibly" he grinned and pecked my lips again before I jumped off grabbing my glass "so anyway what time does this fight start? And what are the rules?"
He groaned looking up at the ceiling "well I know it's on Saturday but I won't know where till then. Basic rules to keep you alive. And no weapons of any kind"
He seemed okay with that but I frowned in confusion "how do they know who's won?" His eyes answered that question "fight till you can't anymore, that's the whole point of it I think"
"So you have days left to train and you're here drinking with me?" He shrugged grinning to himself "yep, pretty much"
Like he needed to train anymore. His muscles were incredible and I'd have to be stupid to think he wasn't dangerous in the ring after that fight with Pete.
"Well you can't blame me if you're not ready" he chuckled darkly and I frowned scanning his face "you know you have 2 small dimples at the bottom of your back?" I shrugged confused
"That night in the gym? You got comfortable and ended up taking my top off" he grinned again rolling his head back to look up at the ceiling. I could feel my face heating up and had no idea why.
"I saw the dimples in your back, one single freckle too. I can't stop thinking about it" he quickly looked at me but not for long.
"Not in a pervert way! I wasn't checking you out, I just.. when I was trainning it was the only thing running thought my head, I don't know"
I burst out laughing loudly and he joined in. He was drunk. When we stopped he shook his head crossing his arms still grinning "well, I don't know what to say to that" I giggled again and frowned almost sure I could see a tint of red on his cheeks.
"Woow hold up, are you blushing?" His head snapped round to me making me laugh again playfully slapping his arm. When he didn't retaliate I stood and turned around pulling my hair away from my shoulders.
"You tell me when to stop m'kaay?" I continued chuckling and started swaying my hips pulling the hem of my top up a little, he was off the sofa and stood directly behind me growling in my ear instantly "that's not fair, you're being cruel" his hands squeezed my hips and I stopped moving.
"I was just giving you more to go on princess, can't I add a few clips to your mental slide show?" I giggled again but pressed myself back against him relishing the thought of getting him hot and bothered for a change.
He cursed hiding his face in my neck, I decided to stop because I didn't want to wish I did tomorrow when I woke up. He planted a soft kiss on my neck and got close to my ear.
"We'll continue this conversation when you're sober...and more clothed" I giggled but stepped away winking at him as I grabbed my glass "I do need to sleep, I have a shift at 11 till 7" I groaned tossing myself down on the sofa and he smirked checking the time "good luck with that, you have 6 hours to sleep and get to work"
He kept grinning making me want to kick him, he was enjoying this! "I'll be finishing training around that time, patty's?" I crinkled my nose. I liked the cafe down the road but the gym clients went there and I hated it.
"Nuggets?" I grinned nodding and he shook his head grabbing his coat "come get me at the gym I'll drive" he shrugged and tossed his drink back before winking down at me "be good, kid"
