It’s been almost a month since she’s been in here. I don’t know what happened, but it’s like she just faded away. I’ve had TMZ and several other news outlets calling me daily to respond to Amanda’s accusations. I’ve been staying pretty quiet on most of it, and just waiting for the baby to arrive. I want a paternity test, and if it’s mine we’ll go from there. The fact that she knows I’m in Boston, and hasn’t bothered to come see me, tells me that she’s not a hundred percent sure. I think that she thinks I’m her golden ticket. I mean, I’ll support this kid, if it’s mine, but she’s not getting a dime.

“What’s up?” Caleb nodded when I walked into the gym. I’ve been driving myself again, and just meeting Dad here. My probation and community service are finished, but I’ve been teaching some private lessons to fill my time. It’s taking much longer for the rumors to go away, and I honestly don’t see much changing until this baby comes.

“Not much.” I clicked a few buttons on my phone to silence it. “Damn reporters won’t leave me alone.”

“I’m surprised they haven’t shown up here yet.” Caleb laughed.

“I’ve been doing my best to not let on that I’m here.” I tapped the baseball cap I was wearing. I’d also stopped wearing any clothing that identified me as a fighter. I was attempting to blend in.

“You’re kinda hard to miss.” He laughed.

“What?” I looked down at my shorts and sneakers. I thought I’d been doing pretty good.

“You’re six foot five, Bro, and all muscle.” He shrugged. “It’s like trying to hide an elephant in an empty room.”

“If you rat me out, I’ll help my sister beat your ass.” I pointed at him before waltzing away. I was meeting a client and wanted to warm up first.

“I’m not afraid you.” He laughed and I just shook my head. He may not be afraid of me, but my sister has a mean left hook.

ooooooooo

Most of my day was spent doing one of one training sessions with various clients, some men, some women. In between sessions, I’d work out and keep an eye out for Hadleigh. When she first stopped coming, I worried, but now it’s been weeks. It’s more of a habit to look than anything.

My last client of the day just left, so I decided to head back to the heavy bags and work on form. There weren’t any guys around to spar with, so this would have to do.

I cranked the music in the gym up, and tightened my gloves. Pretty much everyone had gone home at this point. Dad had left hours ago, and other than Caleb, I was alone. It’s the way I liked it.

I rocked on my toes, and swung at the bag. It rocked back, and I lifted my leg to knee it. I practiced the move over and over until I was panting. I stopped to get a drink of water, and as I turned back to the bag, I caught a flash of blue out of the corner of my eye.
