Samantha traced her finger on each drawer in her closet that that what were in there clearly labeled with a magazine letter collage that spelled out the word. She opened the shirt drawer and flipped through the piles of neatly ironed at staked shirts, looking for something good to wear. Not gym clothes, and not fancy; something casual. Sammy finally picked out a plaid shirt with maroon, crème, and faded green on it, with skinny jeans and tall chocolate brown boots that went to her knees. She then looked at her choices for accessories and took an ecru knitted tube scarf, her classic Ray Bans, and a studded leather purse she had gotten for a gift one year. Now all she needed was breakfast and makeup and she was ready to go.
The makeup didn’t take long, just the average stuff like mascara, bronzer, foundation, eyeliner, and anything she could think of. Sam then trotted to the kitchen and grabbed a yogurt cup and a Rockstar energy drink from the refrigerator and she was out.
Soon enough she arrived at the gym made her way past the boys of the treadmills and stair steppers and found her way to the boxing arena. For gym members there were some reserved seats in the second row because the gym wanted the athletes to be supportive, hence the nice seats. Sam took on in the center of the middle row by some girls and guys she knew and waited for the match to start. She wanted to wish Jesse good luck, but he couldn’t be scene. Instead Sam pulled out her blackberry and began to type away and texted Jesse a good luck note and that she was in the audience and now pressure with a winking face and then sent it. She was ready for the fight to begin. |

Walking down the white blank halls, she shivered in her black leather jacket, her black peep toes clacking against the hall and echoing as she tried to quiet her steps. Two males were escorting her to the suite, as they pointed to a black painted door that had a plaque of VIP towards the top. She looked toward one of the men and cleared her throat. "Do you know where I can find Jesse, if I want to go down and wish him luck and then come back up?" The man nodded and turned her around and they walked into an elevator as he took her downstairs and to the boxing ring.
Jesse was standing there, warming up as Olivia ran over to greet him, "Hey, hey, hey my winner... you nervous?" She asked as she tinkled with the metal chains that were sewn onto her cashmere grey shirt. She heard snapping and screaming and Olivia turned around to smile and wave to the cameras as they somewhat blended their names, they did an awful job though as they screamed, Jelivia. Who would come up with somewhat as ridiculous as that? "I really should be heading back, but good luck!" She smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck and semi- stood up on her tiptoes as the heels helped to kiss him gently. It was just as good as the first kiss, and it felt right. "Go kick some ass." As she waved goodbye and followed the escort back to the VIP seating. |

Jesse took a couple of deep breathes before warming. His phone buzzed before he got the chance to warm up. He scurried over to his iPhone to check it. It was Samantha wishing him luck. Jesse smiled as he read it. He then threw it back in his bag and warmed up by punching the bag and kicking it a couple of times doing a bunch of combonations. His ears perked up to hear Olivia's voice. "Hey. You look stunning as always." Jesse said with a grin as he looked her up and down. He wondered what Sam looked like. He figured he would see Sam after his match. Maybe he could find her in the crowd. He shrugged a bit before answering Olivia. "Maybe a little." He explained as his light blue eyes looked into hers. He heard some fans screaming Jelivia. His face looked confused but wasn't bothered by it. Jesse nodded and grinned, "Thanks."
Once Olivia left Jesse looked into the mirror and began to pray in his head like he did right before every boxing match. He flung on his black silk robe with his red boxing gloves. He wore black and red shorts without any shoes and some tape on his right foot. The guy he was facing would be wearing black gloves. A red mouth gaurd was placed in his mouth. Jesse knew he had to do good tonight. There were all the fans and girls that he had to impress so he didn't look like he couldn't box. Jesse had an un-defeated season besides one match he had lost towards the beginning of the boxing season. Once his manager came in and told him he had to get out there Jesse nodded. "Alright." He mumbled through his mouth gaurd.
Jesse paced through the back halls. The person he was facing had already been out there. Once Jesse came through the doors of the stadium the crowd went wild screaming his name. Jesse smiled and waved to his fans. His eyes looked around for Sam. He had already knew Olivia had VIP seats. But, Sam had just texted him at the last minute saying she was coming or else she would have had special seats as well. Jesse climbed into the ring dropping his robe and began to loosen out his body.
The match took about a minute before starting up. Jesse was facing his partner as his icy blue eyes turned into fire as he thought about times that weren't so good. He needed to get pumped and be angry. That was his key to winning. He would be fighting without knowing it. Once the whistle blew Jesse and his partner James went in circles until Jesse striked first. He jabbed him doing a combonation before the other guy could get a hit. After blocking a couple of hits and being hit once or twice Jesse struck him once again by doing a kick combo to his head with a couple of punches. Jesse breathed heavly as they battled for the taste of victory.

Sam chatted amongst her fellow acquaintances, and they weren’t really her friends, not enemies, just people she knew and made small talk with when she worked out. Her phone was still in her lap, as she woke it up and the screen glowed, lighting her face. There were no new texts from Jesse like she had hoped, but it was probably because he got a lot of good luck wishes, and he didn’t have time to check them when he was busy getting pumped up for his match. After all, he had a big title to hold since he was almost undefeated except for one match, but other than that he was doing swell. Samantha dropped her phone in her studded purse and looked to the boxing ring to see Jesse’s opponent out there waiting for Jesse to come.
The crowd started to cheer and Sam knew that Jesse was making his way to the ring. She immediately jumped up and cheered with the rest of the fans, using her loudest voice possible. ”LOVE YOU JESSE!” she screamed, jumping up in down in the mix of the crowd. When he finally made his way in the ring she sat down with everyone else, but did a little shy fist pumping to herself.
As she watched Jesse punch his opponent, she cheered him on, saying he could beat his ass and things like so. When it came to sporting events she got really into it, and was a loud member of the audience. She hopped she wouldn’t bother anyone, but so far there were some others cheering.

The suite box was friendly as Olivia made friendly conversation with others there. Complimentary of course she sipped on her apple margarita as she talked about her future in her acting and music career. She loved influential people; they understood her well enough and treated her respectfully and gave her say in choices.
Soon as the bell rang inside the suite box, the talk was on boxing and boxing only. Olivia cheered with a few families as Jesse came out into the ring. Boxing was something Olivia knew; but not too well but she was keen on learning new things and sports were fine with her as well. As Jesse punched his opponent, a well known business man leaned over and fist pounded Olivia and at same time they spoke; "Doing the Trump!" And they both laughed as Olivia set her drink on the glass table as she ordered a water with lemon.
Jesse was good none the less to say as her elder brother spoke of him all the time which was really funny because Olivia couldn't have cared less about some boxer guy but now that she actually knew him, she did care... A lot. Jesse was someone important and they had some serious chemistry. As he was out in the ring she took her phone from her pocket out and typed away. 'Looks like you don't need a good luck charm' with a smiley face emoticon after before sending the text message his way.

The bell rang to finish round one. The ref held up Jesse's arm into the air showing that he had been the winner of the first match. Jesse smiled spotting Sam in the crowd winking at her. Then his attention turned to Olivia wearing a grin on his face. He was more then soaking up the attention he was getting from the crowd as they screamed and hollard his name and a few other things. Intense rock metal music began to play in the background as Jesse waited for round 2 which would be starting in a bout 3 minutes.
Jesse went over to check his phone quickly while he had time. He wrote back to Olivia 'Maybe so. Your even more help so I won't look dumb if I loose. (;' Since Jesse had some more time left he texted back Sam. 'Thanks. I see you by the way. You look nice. Sorry the text is late btw.(:' Jesse tossed his phone back into his boxing bag once more. He began to loosen his body once again. The music began to fade for it was time for round two. This was going to be intense because Jesse was starting to feel slightly tired from working his ass off. He would give it his best like always.
Jesse and his opponet James began to go in circles once again. This time James took the first hit. He hit Jesse in his face rather hard. Then Jesse got hit some more in the gut. James finished of his combonation by kicking Jesse in the arm. After getting tossed around a bit Jesse could feel the anger building up into his system. He wanted to seriously hurt this kid but, was in some what of a lot of pain right now from James quick moves. He heard his fans trying to cheer on him. Jesse bent to his knees for a second. Then rose once again to strike a couple of hits in the face and the stomach. He had an idea he wasn't going to win this round. Jesse just needed to focus more.

Sam hopped up in her chair once more and raised her fist in the chair like she was from Jersey Shore. ”GO JESSE!” she hollered once again with a bright smile on her face. She then caught sight at Jesse winking at someone, perhaps her? She was pretty sure it was her, so she looked to the sides of her and behind her, but didn’t see anyone else he would be winking to, so she took it was for her. Samantha kept smiling and gave him a three finger wave back. When he won round one she cheered him on and then sat back down in her seat for a quick break as she pulled out her Rockstar from underneath the seat and took a strong sip. Refreshing.
Her phone chirped, causing Sam to dig through her bag to pull out her phone as she woke it up again and read the note that said one new message. She then pressed okay and scrolled through, reading it. She smiled and dropped it back in her bag, not needing to reply. She raised a playful brow to him in case he could see her, and crossed her arms over her chest with a smirk.
Round two started and Sam clapped with the rest of the crowd as the bell rang and went off. She couldn’t help but gasp when Jesse took a punch in the face, but then saw he made a fast recovery as most boxers did. Jesse seemed to not be doing as well, maybe getting too cocky, but she cheered him on with faithful things like, ”you can do it! Shake it off,” and things like that. She crossed her fingers for good luck as she continued to watch the game.

His text back made Olivia laugh as Donald eyed her. "Dont tell my dad will you?" She asked and then they both broke out into hysterical laughter. Ah, the good friends they were and the close family as well. Chatting with a few wives and the girlfriend of James; Olivia sat with her as they watched the game with side conversations every now and then.
The second round started and Olivia winced as Jesse took a hit but she knew him well enough to shake it off, except... He wasn't. He was actually doing really poorly out there. Olivia looked at James' girlfriend and they both shared the same idea. They both ran down to the announcers box and asked for a thousand if for like 15 seconds Olivia could post a sign where it usually gave highlights and the current score. For a thousand who would disagree.
Leaning over the keyboard she told the man exactly what to type. She didn't want things to end up wrong. But it didn't. The man pushed enter and her words came up on a scrolling monitor. "Pain is weakness releasing from the body. Love, Olivia She knew that would motivate him enough because she knew if she was out there; that would give a tremendous boost to her self confidence.

Jesse just had gotten his ass kicked in round two. He knew he would have a headache and a couple of bruises afterwards. There wasn't anything meds couldn't fix for his head. Jesse really needed to get his head into the game. If he didn't this match wouldn't turn out so well. Soon, round two was over with a buzz. The ref held up James arm up into the air declaring he was the winner for round two. So now it was anyones game, really.
Jesse checked his phone once again as the music blasted through his ears. He smiled at the text nodding at Olivia giving her a smirk. Jesse glanced up at Sam. The music went through his body, the fans screamed his name and were cheering even louder then before, and most of all he was pissed at James for tossing his ass around making himself look like a fool. But, him and James were good boxing buddies. They never stayed mad at one another after a boxing match. It was never like that with the boxers. They got over it unless it was titles. But, it really depended on the person.
Jesse's thoughts over whelmed him giving him lots of confidence now. He was ready to knock James out. But, of course he wasn't getting his hopes up of course. Jesse just wanted to kick some ass, win, and celebrate. That was always a good time. The music faded so it was just the fans hollering for Jesse or James. Jesse took a deep breathe before getting in front of James. He was on full attack.
Jesse didn't have time to go in silly circles. Jesse dove right into it boxing the shit out of James. He round house kicked him in the gut making him kneal down. Jesse didn't want to knock him out since they were some what friends but, then again this was a boxing match. James rose up again throwing some jabs at Jesse. Jesse blocked a few but, also got hit. Jesse hit him in the head and then in the gut making James hit the floor making a loud thud. Round three was finished. James wasn't knocked out just got the wind blew out of him.
Jesse spit out his mouth gaurd. "Hell yah!" He yelled as he threw a fist into the air after winning that close match. He felt like he was on top of the world and could do almost anything right now. Jesse felt like a super hero that had just saved the day. He took off his gloves putting them with his other stuff. He walked over to James then pulled him up to his feet. They did a one arm hug saying "Good job bro." Jesse looked out into the crowd with a huge grin plastered on his face he felt like he owned this place. Like he just did the impossible. Thats how good Jesse felt right now.

Sam looked at the screen over the ring to see a new message from some girl named Olivia, probably just a fan, Sam thought to herself as she watched the referee hold James’s hand in the air, declaring him the winner of round two. Some members in the audience booed, but that was a bit too cruel. Sam just clapped slowly, nodding her head sympathetically to Jesse. He looked so disappointed, but there was still round three left for him to win.
The music played, indicating round three was just ahead. Sam tapped her fingers to the music on her legs nervously, hoping for the best for Jesse. He deserved to win. He lived, breathed, and well everything around boxing. It was his passion and life so Sam really wanted him to win. She saw him glance up at her and she smiled again, giving him a thumbs up sign to say that he would beat the crap out of his opponent the next round.
When the music finished Samantha took the hand of her neighbor and squeezed it tightly with her as she bowed their heads and wished for the best. Jesse had improved amazingly since the last round, so Sam cheered him on like a preppy cheerleader. She watched as he jabbed James and proved that he was the better boxer. With her free hand, she fist pumped, to show that he was doing great and to keep it. She poked her friend and whispered to first pump, and soon the whole row was doing it.
Sammy jumped in the air with glee as Jesse’s hand was raised by the judge and round three was done. ”WOOO!” she shouted with the rest of the fans. She was so excited for him, and she defiantly needed to see him after the game. In all of the mess, she pulled out her phone and texted Jesse. ”I’m staying after, meet me in the second row (: she typed and sent it to Jesse with a satisfied smile.
Sam then resumed to jumping with the rest of the fans and dancing about to the music as confetti rained down on them in metallic colors. It was like it was raining indoor with paper, as it stuck to her clothes. She laughed as she hugged her friends.

Round three had started and Jesse had gotten his stamina back along with his endurance. James' girlfriend and Olivia chatted about the tough life of being famous and those who wanted to be famous. "They have it lucky..." Olivia said as Jesses' fist was raised in the air to indicate he had won as confetti guns released the strips of colorful paper. Donald gave Olivia a hug goodbye as she gathered her stuff.
Exchanging numbers with James' girlfriend named Dominique they both exited the suite. "Olivia Cedar, Jesse requests a visit from you." Olivia followed the tall guy down the elevator again and onto the lower platform where al the family members were and the stars that wanted to be out in the open. Jesse was getting press and she respected that, shying away as to not steal the attention from his winning moment.
As he looked over she waved to him and pointed back to the cameras as if to tell him he needed to focus on the press more because they were giving him his ten minutes of nightly fame and he really needed to absorb that to the best of his abilities without seeming overly cocky. Not a problem for a guy like him...

Jesse had gotten attacked with fans and the press. First he had answered the a few of the presses questions. "Are you and Olivia Cedar dating?" A lady spoke to Jesse as the other press pressured him into answering it. Thank god, his manager said he needed to take some pictures with his fans and maybe sign some body parts. Jesse smiled at the press. "Sorry, I have to go. Nice speaking to you all." Jesse said polietly as he walked away. He took a couple of pictures with a few of his fans and signed a couple of body parts, hats, and anything that just stood out.
After what seemed like a long time Jesse had the night to relax and celebrate. Jesse smiled at Sam motioning for her to come to him rather him go to her. It was just too busy. His manager gathered his stuff and followed Jesse as he walked over to Olivia. "Hey, did you have a good time tonight?" He asked curious to know with a warm smile on his lips. Jesse was still shirtless and was dripping some salty sweat here and there. He needed to hit the showers and get some fresh clothes on. He had planned to go out tonight and celebrate like always.

Sam waited in her spot as the crowd slowly made its way out of the arena, some gloating that Jesse won, and some pissed the James had lost. Sam for one was happy about the whole thing, but others cursed underneath their breath as they shuffled out of the aisles of the row of seats. She taped her feet and twiddled her thumbs to keep herself busy as she saw a swarm of press go up to a person whom look like the size of a ant since he was surrounded. It had to be Jesse, but she couldn’t hear any of the questions being asked, all she heard was muffled yells demanding an answer.
After the press left Samantha saw Jesse break his way through them and then signaled for her to come to mind. She gathered her stuff and walked to him, smiling the whole way. She gave him a hug and then let go, giving him a glowing smile. ”You did a great job, and I had a fun time watching you kick ass out there,” she said, seeing a another girl come beside his manager. Sam felt as disgusting now that she had some of Jesse’s sweat on her, but she tried her best to not complain.

"Yeah, I had a great time. Thanks for the invitation." She said as this other girl came up and hugged Jesse. Gross considering he was all sweaty; although Olivia liked it when he worked out hard and he had that slight glisten to him. As she stood there in awkward silence a few cameras came up and blinded Olivia as she held her hand up infront of her blue eyes as they asked what she was doing here. "Supporting Jesse." She smiled, removing her hand.
They snapped more pictures and asked questions about her and Jesse. Her publicist came up and said she could only answer some questions but not get too personal. "Let us leave it at friends with benefits..." As she waved good bye as the photographers were escorted off. "Well well well... Thank you for a nice night." She said as she pulled out her car keys. "But I guess that I'll call you?" As she stood up on her tip toes to kiss the outer corner of his mouth, still a good enough kiss but it wasn't full on mouth. Keeping it, undetermined.

Jesse smiled at the two girls as his light blue eyes shifted from one another. "I'm glad you both had a good time." Jesse said with a toothy grin then Sam hugged him. Not that he didn't care it was just a bit gross after he had just been working his ass out out their. "Thanks Sam. I'm glad you girls came out to see me." He explained as his manager pointed to his watch meaning he had to leave really soon. Jesse smiled, "Sounds good Olivia. Well, I have to go now. I'll talk to you ladies later." Jesse said with a smirk as he began to walk away from them. "See you later." He called after him as he drifted away with his manager.
