We all glance over to the doorframe where Enzo stood, his blonde hair was all messy and almost looks like bed-head. I analyse him further and aspect his face where his stubble stands all scruffy and untidy, definitely needs to be shaped. My eyes rake his clothing which consists of a vest top which shows off his muscles and his sleeve tattoo on his arm, his shorts weren't tight at all either.

I stop myself from staring and decide to place my sigh elsewhere...His light orbs. He probably caught me observing him and his appearance the whole time. I quickly turn away and glance at Dante and Bruno who were waiting for Enzo to break the silence.

"Posso allenarmi con te? " [can I train with you?] Bruno and Dante look at each other with a face of 'sure' they both stare at me and I nod. We all agree and Enzo comes to join us along with his muscular arms.

We train for hours; Bruno gets defeated a few times which only makes him more aggressive.

"Calmati, Bruno." [Take it easy] Dante says to Bruno and Bruno nods, he backs away and takes a seat on the bench while waiting Dante and I fighting along with Enzo.

Awhile longer and we were all sweating to the floor, the boys' hair was all a mess as the drips fell from their forehead.

"Well, that was good training, goodnight." I say and wave, I walk out of the basement and my arm is hurriedly pulled back by an unfamiliar touch.

I turn around almost growl.

"Don't touch me like that." I state and sigh.

"I'm sorry, Mio Caro." [my dear] I nod and stand in front of him waiting for his lips to move and his voice box to work.

"I just want to say thanks for taking me back here the other day from the shot." He declares and I nod in agreement with him and begin to walk off again until I'm stopped by his voice echoing through the hallway again.

"I mean it."

"I know." I reply and leave him standing there with a white face towel in his hands to wipe the sweat dripping off his forehead, I open the door knob and enter through my mother's old room, it doesn't look like any pictures she showed me other than that the wallpaper is still the same.

I plant myself on the floor as I rummage for some clothes to sleep in. Five minutes later I find a large white T-shirt and a black pair of short shorts. I'm dreading wearing these, they only just cover my bum. I lock my bedroom door and head to the en-suite, I close the bathroom door to and let my clothes fall to the floor, I let the environment embrace my body before it gets covered in cold water.

I turn the knob of the shower and place my body in the shower and feel the pressure of the water spray all over my body which made the sweat disappear from my body, the cold water relaxes my muscles from all of the intense exercise they've had. I hauled out the coconut body wash and smother my whole body with it, I then wash it off awhile later and decide not to stay in the shower any longer.

I turned off the knob and wrap my towel around my body, I walk into the bedroom and could already smell the coconut coming off of my body, leaving the room to smell like coconut too. I travel to the bed I'm sleeping in and put on my black shirt as well as my white top and hang up my towel back in the bathroom.

I place myself on the bed and get comfy inside the cotton sheets, which were fit for this kind of weather.

I toss and I turn, it must've been around midnight, I turn over to face the alarm clock and I was way off. It was gone one o'clock in the morning, I sigh and wiped my eyes from the lack of sleep I had. I choose to move the duvet off of my body and sit myself out of the bed and get up, I knew I was topless but I had to get a glass of water.

I pace through the hallway and let the cold sensation of the floor run up my feet, I enter the kitchen and turn on the small lamp which scares some little woman.

"Shit!" She squeals and turns around; she must've spat out a bit of her water as her white top was slightly see-through. I glance further on her top and notice how cold she's getting, but I'm noticing extra bumps around her nipples.

"What you looking at?" She questions me and my mind is blank, I gaze back up to her face and she looks back down at her top and notices exactly what I was staring at.

"Yes, I have my nipples pierced." She chuckles and place the glass carefully on the counter, not allowing it to make any sound.

"I wasn't looking." I announce my lies and wait for her facial expression to change, she chuckles along at my stupidity and gives me a smile. Her white teeth pearl throughout the dim room.

"Anyway, what you doing up so late?"

I query her and she raises her glass of half-filled water, some would argue it was half empty.

"Drinking your half empty glass?" I raise a brow and her face turns serious.

"Half full." She corrects me and sniggers softly.

"What about you?" She questions and I look at the tap drip it's last drop of water.

"Getting my glass of water." I say and chuckle as I head to the tap to fill up my glass of water. I take a sip and let the cold water run down my throat to cool it down and feel relaxed as the dryness disappears.

"Well, goodnight." She utters and releases a smile, I wave goodbye and let her leave as her tiny shorts ride up further up her thighs leaving them to barely cover her bum, this woman is enough to tease any man. See-through top, short black shorts...I roll the thoughts out of my head and take the last mouthful of my water which runs its coolness down my throat to force the thoughts out of my mind. I put it in the sink and travel to the hallway. So, I could get back to the guest bedroom.

I turn the knob and allow myself in, the room was dim, the only light reflecting on the wall was from the tiny lamp which was running out of its power. I close to door behind me and tuck myself up in bed, covering my half-exposed body with the cotton covers which allows my body to become comfy.

"Shit!" I squeal and turned around, leaving some water to flow on my white shirt, I look at him and gazing at his eyes and where they were travelling to.

"What you looking at?" I question him and his face looks blank, he gazes back up to my face and I stared straight and then looking at my top knowing exactly what he was staring at.

"Yes, I have my nipples pierced." I declare while slightly chuckling and place the glass carefully on the counter, not allowing it to make any sound.

"I wasn't looking." He announces along with his lie and he wait for my facial expression to change, I chuckle along at his stupidity and gives him a smile.

"Anyway, what you doing up so late?"

He questions me as I lift up my glass of half-filled water to indicate I came for a drink.

"Drinking your half empty glass?" he raises a brow and I turn serious.

"Half-full." I correct him as I snigger.

"What about you?" I return the question and he glances at the tap drip, his forehead is covered with sweat which makes his hair looks damp and darker.

"Getting my glass of water." He says along with a chuckle, he heads to the tap to fill up his glass of water. I watch him take a sip and feel the need to leave.

"Well, goodnight." I say softly and release a smile, he waves goodbye and lets me exit out of the kitchen.

I travel to my mother's old room and reach the door, I turn the knob and enter the room, I close the door straight behind me to give myself a sigh of relief.

I lay down on my bed and let the comfort engulf me as my muscles ease. I look up to the ceiling and wonder why Enzo was sweating so much, maybe he gets hot in his sleep easy? Maybe it's his medication? I have no idea why I care.

I toss and I turn and decide to face the wall, I feel the breeze travel to my body leaving goosebumps to emerge on the surface of my skin, thoughts then hit me that I had left the window on the latch and let the air circulate with its fresh air. I sigh and allow myself to drift off to sleep.
