Liliana

"I still don't know what you did to convince me to come." I muttered, curling my hair into loose wave-ish curls.

"This guy I really like asked me out and I needed to bring someone." He says.

"Why me?" I whined.

"Because! You're the only one who doesn't have an early class tomorrow." He says.

"Tomorrow is a Saturday. No one has classes tomorrow!" I say.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever. It's not just you. Ryder is gonna be there, too." He says.

"How the hell did you get him to come with you?" I ask in disbelief.

"Oh, he isn't coming with us. He's probably already on his way. He has to be there early." He says.

"So, he's a stripper?" I ask, shocked.

"No. He fights there." He shrugs.

"What?!" I yelled. "First of all, what club are we going to? And since when did Ryder fight?"

"I don't think you were supposed to know the last part but we're going to a fighting club. In which there is a boxing arena and a club as well." He says.

"What are you dragging me into, James?" I sighed.

"Fun. You looked so tense since we had met you yesterday. You weren't like the Lili we knew 2 years ago." He says.

"Is that why you invited me?" I ask and he nods.

"Let loose, babygirl." He grips my shoulder. "It's not wrong."

I smiled at him and finish my hair.

Now, all I have to do is slip into my dress.

"Perfect!" James explained, clapping his hands giddily

We arrived to the fighting club or some shit and needless to say the place was really noisy and crowded of course.

"Come on! He's starting!" James says.

"Who?!" I shouted over the crowd.

"Ryder!" He says and my heart drops.

I was kinda hoping he was kidding.

His name got announced as we reached near the front but there were a few people in front of us.
