I jump up and attack him, this time with my muscles remembering my classes. We go over the basics as he defends himself from me. The problem is, the man is a wall and no matter what I’m doing, he is still smirking at me.

I somehow twist around him, as he grabs me and I elbow him in the back, before backing away again.

"Your fast, good," he comments as we circle each other. For the next hour, he knocks me on my back a million times and I manage to get a few decent hits in. My body feels like it's on fire but he hasn't hurt me enough to have any bruises after this.

"Last time," he says with a small smirk, as I wipe off the sweat off my head. I watch looks at the clock on the wall. It’s nearly seven and it’s still very light outside, which is normal for this time of year. I try not to look at Jaxson as he drinks some water, a few drops slip down his chin and down his throat. I find myself wishing I could lick the water off him. I shake my head as he puts the water down and faces me.

This time he doesn't let me prepare for him and he knocks me to the ground straight away, shifting us both mid-air so he takes the brunt of the land and I’m landed smack on top of him.

We both stare at each other, with our bodies pushed closely together, he rolls us over after a second. I shiver when he is on top of me but somehow not resting all his weight on me. I feel deliciously trapped between his muscled arms as he lifts a hand to push one of my escaping brown hairs out of my eyes, and his finger traces down my face.

My breath catches as my eyes flutter to his perfect lips, as his eyes seem to be doing the same to mine. For one second I'm sure he is going to kiss me before he shuts down, pushing himself off me and walking out. The door slams, shaking the cabin with his anger.

What the hell was I thinking to let him get that close anyway? It's clear he doesn't like me; I sit up looking around at the empty room before the door opens again. Freddy walks in with a big smile.

"Winter!" He shouts running over to me as I stand, and soon I'm pulled into a big hug from a stronger than he looks little boy.

"Freddy, can't breathe," I push out as Freddy laughs letting go.

"Woops sorry, I kind of forgot your human." He says like it was a little bit of an insult to be human and I try not to take an offense about that.

"Right. How are you? No more sneaking out I hope?" I ask.
