Chapter 14

So what’s going on with you? You have been weirdly quiet and punching insanely hard tonight." Jazmine removed her wrist wraps as Maddie stretched.

"I snapped at my boss today." Jazmine stared back at her in silence, "And? Are you going to elaborate?" Maddie explained the situation as Jazmine listened intently.

"Well I think the apology is definitely the first step. What else is going on with you that you reacted in such a hormonal fashion?"

Maddie rolled her eyes, "It wasn’t hormonal, I was just caught off guard by it. I don’t like being accused of something I didn't do. Besides just because someone hands you their business car doesn’t mean it’s an offer for sex and it certainly doesn’t mean I threw myself at the guy!”

"Well he wasn’t accusing you Maddie he was asking a question and it seems like you didn’t even give him the chance to explain anything. Also he didn’t suggest you threw yourself at him...so again, what is going on with you that you let something that you could easily clear up get you so wound up?"

Maddie let out a long sigh. She knew the confusing kiss she had shared with Bennet was to blame along with his underhanded comment. It was exciting and to her wonderful but he acted like it didn’t even happen and then asked if she was dating someone else. She wasn’t ready to share that with Jazmine though, "Ya know I really hate when you’re always right."

Maddie grabbed her things and walked outside with Jazmine. "Thanks for being a voice of reason tonight and for being a great friend…even when that means telling me what I don’t want to hear." She gave Jazmine a quick hug and ducked into the backseat of the waiting car to head home and face Bennet.

As the elevator door opened the house was mostly dark, just the glow from the city streaming through the windows. She had hoped Bennet would be home so she could apologize and get rid of this tension in her shoulders. During her workout and the trip home she had practiced in her head what she would say. She placed her bag on the floor and hung up her coat then headed to the kitchen to grab some water.

As she walked past the living room she was startled to see Bennet sitting on the couch. He was leaning back with one leg draped over the other and glass of amber liquid in his hand resting on his knee.

She stumbled a bit and then met his eye line, she couldn’t make out what his mood was with the shadowed lighting.

"Hi, um do you have a minute?" She could hear the nervousness in her own voice. He let out a low sound of agreement as he lifted the glass to his lips and took a long sip. Maddie slowly approached him, realizing she was once again half dressed in only a sports bra and leggings. She hugged her arms to her chest as she stood in front of him.
