"Vince, please don't do this. I still got my phone in my pocket and it can't me wet. Please pull us up!" Serena begs. Alright then, I said when I pulled them both up. There you go. I saw the arms of both girls grabbing for my hands but I pulled them quickly away. Is anyone hungery? I asked when I walked into the kitchen.

When started cooking, I heard some footsteps behind me. I saw In the corner of my eye a hand rising to my shoulder. I grabbed the hand in a reflex and turned around. It was Serena. She forgot my reflexes and she jumped for a moment. I smiled relieved and she leaned forward to kiss me. I put my arms around her and I kissed her gently. After a couple of seconds he pulls away and starts looking at my chest. I bit on my lip. "What?" I giggled. She looked serious. "How did you get the bruise?" she asked quietly. "Oh that.. yeah its what's left of the bullet A gave me." Wow. Wait a second, go back.. which bullet?" she asked when she looked worried. "Ohh hah, A shot me with the gun he had threaten Alison with. It's just a little spot. No big deal." I said and I smiled at her. "No big deal?! Did you see it?! It's as big as my hand! She said worried. "Oh just that big? So it's not that bad." I laughed. She slaps me on my arm. "you are such a dick sometimes!" she said. I looked offended at her and turned my back. "well If that is what you think of me…" Vince… no Vince that's not what I mend. I'm sorry. She said when she looked to the floor. I started laughing and turned around again. She looked up and saw me smiling from ear to ear. She laughed and hit me on my arm again. "Jerk". I laughed and putted gently my lips on hers. I lifted her on the bench and kissed her again.

On that moment, Alison walked in and said with an teasing tone: "oh I'm sorry, shall I come back later?" we directly stopped kissing and I looked at her over my shoulder. I blushed embarrassed and said: ehh.. No ofcourse not. Sit down, lunch is ready." I quickly kissed Serena again and grabbed some plates. I placed the filled omelettes on the plate and walked to the table.
Alison saw my bruise too. "Jesus Christ Vince! Did A do that? Oh my god Vince that is not good!" I laughed. Calm down. It doesn't hurt, it's no big deal. She shook her head. "here you go" I said while I handed over the plate. It looks delicious! But how did you know I loved omelettes? I smiled mysteriously. "A little bird told me! Oh and Ali, Serena and I are going to train after lunch. Do you want to join us?" while I gave Serena her lunch plate. "yes of course!" she said. I nodded and went back to the cooking bench. I grabbed a big bowl and a big knife. Time to make a fruit salad. I went outside to grab some rasp- and strawberry's when I got back inside I putted the berries in the bowl and start slicing some apples. I grabbed when I was done with the apple a kiwi and peeled it. I cut my finger while I was peeling the kiwi, but I didn't feel it. A few moments later I saw a red substance on my thumb. Shit. I did my thumb in my mouth and I was messing around in the kitchen drawer. "Here goofy" I heard behind me and I turned around. It was Serena, she had a patch in her hand and put it on my finger. I saw Alison laugh.

I looked at the bowl again. I'm missing something… but what.. I heard Serena calling my name and she threw a mandarin at me. Thanks to my reflexes I grabbed it out of the air without looking. "thanks! Oh, Ali can you give me some oranges please?" I asked while I turned around. She grabbed two oranges and threw them at me. Thank you! I sliced it into slices and putted them around a big plate. I mixed the bowl a couple of times and put the fruit salad on the plate. And voila! I said when I put the plate on the table. I grabbed a strawberry and said. I will prepare some exercises down stairs. I see you in 5 minutes.

After I prepared some kick box exercises, I walked barefooted to the big punching bag. I punched hard with my bare hands and did some tricks I've learned on the karate training. I jumped high and turned sideways while I kicked the punching bag. When I was back on the ground I used my hand as lean point. I didn't hear the girls coming so I jumped when I heard a voice. "Well well well! Impressive" I turned around and saw Alison behind me. I sighed a little relieved. "shall we begin?" I asked while I walked to Serena. I had teach her to have the same reflexes as I had, so when I wanted to grab her shoulder, she grabbed my hand and turned it on my back. Luckily I had another hand so I could tickle her so she would let me go. "okay, first of all… Auw? And second. That was good! I want you to do it again, but this time, teach Ali how to do it."

After another demonstration of Serena, it was Alison's turn. I pretended like I wanted to punch her, the first time I hit her on her shoulder. But the second time she knew what to do. She grabbed my wrist and turned it on my back. She slowly pushed it to my neck. When my wrist was on my shoulder, I heard Serena say that Ali should just go on until I tapped out. I smiled. " challenge accepted" I said in my head. Serena was standing in front of me and looked me in the eye. Ali was a little shocked when she heard some cracking noise in my shoulder. My hand was in my neck, but I still had not said that it hurts yet. But I did bite on my lip a bit and breathe deeply through my nose. It kept me calm. But then Ali kicked me in the calf. I fell on my knees with my hand still in my neck. I quickly tried to keep my breath under control but I failed. I tried to get up my legs again, but Alison pushed me to the ground again. Eventually I tapped off and said: "okay okay you got me!" She let me go and I fell on my back, trying hard to get my breach under control again.

When it was all under control again, I stand up. "what were you thinking by kicking me to the calf?" I asked surprised. Ali looked disappointed at me. I'm sorry, I think I let myself go. She said and she sat down on her knees. I gave her my hand and lifted her up again. "you don't have to apologize, it was really clever! In just two clever moves I was lying on the ground! It was a good alternative instead of breaking my arm! I smiled and looked at Serena. You are a good teacher!

Serena blushed and act like she didn't knew what I mean. "Where are you talking about? I didn't tell her a thing!" she kept trying. I laughed and grabbed her hand. I pulled hard so she turned in my arms so she was stuck in my iron grip. "Got yah" I whispered in her ear. I looked at Ali again. I heard her say that you should kick me if I didn't give up. "You have to whisper more quietly my darling" I said when I flexed my muscles so she couldn't go anywhere. "now it's your turn princes. Try to get out, you can kick me, scratch, everything. You can walk, I'll go with you. Have fun!" I said. I saw her eyes and they were looking at Alison. I laughed. "nooo little Princes. You have to do this on your own." After a few times that she tried, she was still in my arms. I looked at Ali. "can you give me a metres, so she wouldn't hurt herself when she falls.. "wait.. falls? Are you going to throw me to the ground?" She asked teasing. Maybe next time, now I'm going to teach you how to get out of this. But first…. I kissed Serena on her jaw and let her go. "but first, you can try before I'm telling you what to do."

I grabbed Alison like I did by Serena and turned her into the iron grip. But instead of trying hard, Ali stayed calm. She walked with me to a wall and turned her back. She was standing still until I relaxed a bit. then suddenly she walked fast backwards and she slammed me against the wall. I closed my eyes for a moment, but didn't let her go. "Clever. But not very effective." I whispered in her ear. Are you sure about that? she said while she was planning to do it again. But this time I was prepared. I blocked her move and lifted her of the ground to the metres. Okay, I will show you how its done.

I let her go and looked at Serena. "will you help me?" I asked while I reached my hand to her. "Only if you say please" she said cocky. I sighed and looked at her. Please.. She grabbed and I turned her in the iron grip again. Okay, this is how it works. First you have to cross your arms. Second, you turn your hand palms open. When you did that you throw your elbows in my stomach and your torso to the ground. And when you do that in one move, you are free! As simple as it is.

Yeah right!. Alison started giggling. Then Serena remembered. "Wait, wasn't this from that action movie we saw a couple of days ago? I smiled and nodded. While I kissed her on the back of her head. I heard Alison laugh. "wait! This is from a movie? Really Vince? I expected allot, but this." I looked at her like I was offended. Just because it is from a movie, It doesn't mean it is not effective! I said. Serena, can you show her? She nodded and I grabbed her wrists a little tighter. Serena did what I told her and after a few minutes she was laying on the ground. I smiled and pulled her on her feet. "do you want to try it too?" I asked a little cocky. Alison also did what I told her to and, as I said, she felt on her hands on the metres. "what did I tell you" I said with a confident grin.

That night after the main dish, the girls were going upstairs. I was still making dessert. When dessert was ready, I overheard their conversation. "look.. I love it here, and I think you are so nice to me for letting me stay here.. but I really miss my friends. And I still can't visit them because I'm sure I'll put them in danger again." I heard Alison telling Serena. I knocked on the door before I walked in the bedroom. " desserts ladies! I said while I walked like a waiter with three plates on one hand. "where were you talking about? I asked when I gave the girls their dessert. "oh nothing, girl stuff." Serena said quickly when Alison wanted to answer me. I smiled at the girls and hugged both of them. "I'm going to sleep early today, I have to take care of some things with the guys!" I kissed Serena gently and hugged Alison another time. Good night! I said when I closed the door.

When I lay down on the couch, I grabbed my cell phone and send a text to Emily, Spencer, Aria and Hanna. "Make sure you all are packed by tomorrow morning for a couple of days. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning. I'll explain later. X Vince." I pushed the send button and put my cell phone on the table.
