It's Friday and the past few days has been a blur for me. Now I have more time for defense and fight classes, in a few days I will learn how to use a gun and I'm kind of excited for that.
"Miss El Ricci" Tyler say. "The car is ready, are you sure you want to go out now?"
"I do, if he thinks I'm scared of him than he is so wrong." Let that kidnaper come for me. I make my way down and get a text message; I hope its Enzo because he hasn't texted me these days. Is he regretting it? But it isn't Enzo; instead I found one from Lucy.
: I found two seats. Are you coming?
: On my way!
Yes, I'm going to Liam first game. The basketball team has two big tournaments; one in the beginning of the year, but that one is over, and one around April, so now. Lucy mentions it called the 'Sportofista' and the team's name is 'The Wolf Pack' but everyone calls them the 'Wolfs'. It's a cool name.
I arrive at the school 10 minutes before the game start and Lucy runs up to me.
"Don't worry, the seats are still free" she says and hugs me. I hug her back. "You look good" she says when we part.
"Thank you, you too" I reply. We both bought the Wolf-shirt supporters wear; black and gold are there colors.
We both sit down, Tyler and 4 other bodyguards are here to, guarding the door and us of course. Every eye landed on us when we walked in, Lucy felt uncomfortable but I didn't give a fuck; I'm here for Liam, not for them. The opposed team make their way in the stadium and their fans are yelling, encouraging them.
"Those are the Voxen, one of the rivals school" Lucy tells me. "We need to be careful for that one" she points at a tall gay with the number 3 on his jersey. "Ash, he is one of the best players in this season, only if his team was good enough"

"You know a lot about this? Is this because of a certain someone?" I arch a brow and see her blush.
"No! It's just...Interesting" she says. "Look, Liam is up!" I turn my gaze and indeed, Liam and his team is up. In contrast with the other team, they look much better. The crowd goes wild when they spot them, we all yell.
"LIAM, YOU CAN DO THIS" I and Lucy yell, he's startled when he spots us and makes his way toward the crowd. A lot of girls are looking at him like he is their meal and will eat him alive.
"What are you doing here? Aren't you support to stay home?" he asks and I shake my head.
"Mateo said I could come but only if they too" I point at Tyler and the rest, he nod in response.
"Thank you for coming"
"Don't thank me, thank Lucy" we both look at her and I see a small blush creeping up her face. She looks down, playing with her fingers.
"It was nothing, I just wanted to come anyways" there's a loud whistle from the referee.
"Well, thank you anyways" he says to her and before goes he rubs his hand over her head, making it a mess. I frown at him but he simply ignores it.
The game start and Liam is on fire; he scores one after the other, the opposite team doesn't have a chance against him but Liam doesn't play alone too; his team mates help him and I can see that they are really close. Now there's a pause, 15 minutes and they game will start again. The score is 47-26 with the Wolfs in lead. Lucy asked to buy some popcorn and I let her while I stay at the seats, checking my phone. Mateo send me a text.
: Done with work, will come to the game in 10 minutes
Did I read this well? He will come to the game? Smiling to myself I stare at the crowd. Most of them are gone to buy popcorn or candy and then I notice a light. I look up and see someone holding a flash light. I can't make out his face but then I remember to count them. 1...2...3...4...5... and then the person is gone, fuck...5. I look around, trying to find Tyler but he's nowhere to be found, then a sudden question pops up in my mind. Where is Lucy!? She didn't come back and I swear I waited over 10 minutes for her. I make my way to the tick crowd around the food machine, searching for Lucy.

"Lucy!? Lucy!?" I yell but no one answers. Fuck! Pushing someone aside I still can't find her. Tears start to form in my eyes but I won't cry! My body makes contact with a warm, solid one, when I look up I see Mateo, frowning down.
"What's wrong?" he asks me.
"Lucy, I don't know where she is!" I say breathlessly, concern forming in me.
"Did something happen?" he asks calmly but I see the concern in his eyes.
"I...I saw someone up there" I point at the open rooftop. "He had a flashlight and..." I look at him. "He flashed light to me 5 times"
"Fuck..." he says, looking around. "Where is Tyler?"
"I think he went with Lucy" he nods. The other bodyguards are still here so that's a good thing. Mateo takes his phone out, taping something and then hold it to his ear. All the while he is calling, he leads me to the side where Kevin and James are, look concern as well. I don't let Mateo go, instead I hold him in my arms, inhaling the scent of his cologne; it's manly, strong but sweet at the same time...It's just him.
"Tyler!" he says and my heart beats again, okay he picked up! "Where the fuck is Lucy!?" he demands, his body stiffen a little before relaxing. He nods and hangs up. "She's with the team at the back; she wanted to give Liam some popcorn because he asked her to" I let out a sigh of relieve.
"I'm so happy to hear that" I hug him thigh and he does the same, placing me against his broad chest. "You know" I say suddenly. "We should go there too"
"What about that flashlight?" he asks.
"Maybe that was nothing, besides, you are here, can't you protect me" he squeezes my ass, arching a brow.
"Do I look like I can't?"
"Maybe..."
Hand in hand, we make our way to the Team's dressing room and soon we spot Lucy. I let Mateo's hand go and run up to her.
"Lucy!" she turns and smile, hugging me. I step away, looking her over. "Next time please let m know where you are! I was worried"
"Sorry, we didn't know" Liam says and stop dead in track when he sees Mateo. "Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Watching the game, sorry that I'm late"
"No! No! That doesn't matter, as long as you came" he laughs uncomfortably. "I need to go back" and he is gone.
"Oh wait" Lucy says. She takes out a piece of paper. "Someone at the popcorn machine gave this to me" I take it and see the number 5 on it.
"What's wrong?" Mateo asks, stepping closer to us. I let him see the paper and he curses, turning to Kevin and James. "Let 6 extra men come to search this building inside out! I want to know who came and left this building these few hours!" they both nod and take their phone out, calling I guess.
"What's wrong?" Lucy asks, looking concerned.
"Nothing...Who gave this to you? Can you remember that person?"
"I couldn't really see his face, it went so fast and before I knew it I had that paper in my hand"
"C'mon, Lucy, you can remember something, even a little thing! Is it so difficult to remember how he looked liked!?" Mateo yells at her and she immediately shivers, tears forming in her eyes. I stand straighter.
"Don't yell at her!" I say, rage boiling in me. "This is not the way to do it! She has been through some shitty thing and now you are yelling at her! You treat her like she can't do a thing! Good job, Mateo! GOOD JOB!" his brow raises, surprised with my response.
"I'm sorry, Lucy. I didn't mean to-" he starts but I cut him off before he has a chance to apologies.
"-To late" I say, turning my gaze to her. "Its fine, Lucy, go to the stands with Tyler, I will come in a few" she nods and walks away but for me she runs, running from this shithole and I can't blame her. When they're gone, I turn my attention to my husband; he and I need to talk...
