THE FIGHTER (Origninally called my UFC FIGHTER)

10. Ethan

I regret all of my life decisions.

Starting with me having sex with my teacher.

That was probably by far the dumbest and worst decision I have ever made. Like why the fuck did I think it was a good idea to sleep with her? The days I have her class, I find her staring at me when no one is looking and will give me seductive looks that only made me cringe. Why did I even think it was a good idea to have sex with her in the first place? And in school of all places too.

What a stupid decision seriously.

I sighed and shook my head.

"Dude," Liam hissed and I looked at him with a raised brow, "Mrs. Morris has been looking at you for the past half hour," I discretely looked up from my book to see her looking at me and sighed.

"She's probably already thinking of keeping you back, again," he said and I rolled my eyes.

"To bad," I muttered just as the bell rang signaling that class was over.

"Mr. González," Mrs. Morris said just as I was about to step out of the room with Liam.

"Sorry, Mrs. Morris but I have to get to my next class or else I'll get written up again," I lied and she blinked but nodded. I walked out with Liam and made our way towards our next class.

"Since when do you lie?" He asked and I shrugged.

"Only to her," I replied and he chuckled shaking his head. "Fucking her was probably the worst decision I've ever made and I will not be making that one again."

"No one told you to drop your pants and fuck her," he said and I glared at him and he grinned throwing his arm over my shoulder, "think she's got a thing for you?"

"She's married," I replied and he shrugged. I rolled my eyes as we walked into Mr. Gary's room for American Literature.

"Alright, students, settle down," the old male said from the front of the room. "Today we will be reading Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck," he walked to the front row and handed a stack of books to the front room to pass back. "Once you all had your copy, turn to the first chapter."

"Hey," Noah greeted with a smile as we joined him and the others at our table for lunch.

"Hey," I greeted back as I grabbed my burger and taking a bite.

"So have you guys started packing?" He asked everyone, "Dad already got us a hotel suit reserved for us for our trip to London for May."

"Yes," Mac and Levi exclaimed in unison while Andrew, Liam and Sam Jair stared at them, and I shook my head.

"You are going, right?" Noah asked looking at me and I shook my head making him frown. The others looked at me like I had lost my marbles. My friends included.

"I would love to go with you all but I was asked to do a charity fight," I replied and they raised their brows in surprise. "I wasn't supposed to tell anyone but since you guys are my friends, I figured it would be okay."

"When did you learn this?" Liam asked with a raised brows and I sighed. "Or how long have you known?"

"Two weeks," I replied.

"Two weeks?!" Sam hissed making the others look our way, "and you didn't tell us?"

"I wasn't supposed to tell anyone," I replied setting my burger down, "I was reached out by the charity's organizer and asked if there was a chance that I could be part of their charity fight."

"And when is this supposed to take place?" Levi asked and I saw Noah look down at the table.

"May 12th," I answered.

"So two days before the concert," Mac said and I nodded.

"Had I known about the date of the concert I wouldn't have agreed to do the event," I replied.

"Don't worry about it," Noah said and I stared at him and he gave me a small smile before turning to Levi and Mac as the three began talking about the trip to London in two months. The rest of lunch went by in blink and before I knew it I was sitting in Ms Gabriel's class.

"Hermano!" Sol squealed when she saw me enter the house and I grinned drooling my backpack by the door before crouching in time to catch her when her little body collided with mine a moment later.

"Hi, princess," I greeted the little girl who grinned and gave me a sloppy kiss on the cheek and I smiled before roe sing a kiss to her temple before walking towards the kitchen where my parents were. Mom was at the stove while dad was on his IPad.

"Hi guys," I greeted my parents who looked up when I walked in.

"Hi son," dad said with a smile whole mom walked over and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Hi honey, why don't you go up and get cleaned? I'll have lunch ready in a few minutes." I nodded and set Sol down on her high chair making her pout. I leaned down and gave her a kiss on the head before heading to the front door to grab my backpack and head up to my room to change.

I sighed and tossed my backpack on my bed as I closed the door behind me. I couldn't get Noah's disappointed look out of my mind when I told them that I wouldn't be able to go with them to London in May. I hated that o had been the cause of that look. And I don't even know why I felt that way.

My mind was a complete mess.

I groaned and shook my head before getting changed and then headed back to the kitchen just as mom was dishing the food out onto plates that dad must've set while I having a mini mental breakdown in my room while I changed.

"How was school?" Mom asked once we were all sat around the table and I shrugged making her raise a brow.

"There's something wrong, so tell us," Dad said and I but my cheek and set my fork down.

"I forgot to ask where the charity fight was going to take place." I said making him nod as he grabbed the tablet from the counter behind him before he opened up the event calendar.

"London, United Kingdom."

I blinked in surprise, so I would be able to attend this concert after all. I nodded before going back to eating again. I will be keeping that little information though. I want to see their faces when they see me at the concert two days after the charity fight.

Once we had finished eating, I volunteered to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen while they went into the living room with a bowl of popcorn, snacks and drinks and handing them to my parents.

"So,what movie are we watching?" I asked.

"The wittle mewmay," Sol replied with a grin and it took me a second to understand that she said the little mermaid.

"My favorite."
