I got closer to her.
I reached with my right hand, planning on gently touching her face.
Then it happened again.
Just like at the bar.
April moved so fast…
Before I had a chance to blink, there was a sudden jolt of pain that went from my wrist up to my elbow.
A nerve pinching pain that sent me straight up on my toes.
“Yeee-owww!”I cried out.
April turned a little and did something else.
The pain went up to my shoulder and my knees instantly gave out.
I dropped down and looked up at her.
“Touch me with your other hand and I’ll snap your wrist,” she warned.
“Is this where I tap out, babe?” I teased.
She showed me her teeth and twisted my wrist a little bit more.
I reached just under her ass with my free hand and gently tapped twice.
Instantly, the hold was released.
I pulled my right wrist back and tried to stretch it.
“That fucking hurt,” I said.
“You started it,” she said. She offered a hand. “Need help getting up?”
I jumped to my feet and stared down at her. “I never need help getting up, April.”
“Are we done here now?”
“No. Where did that come from? At the bar. Just now. It’s like…”
“Like, what? That I took some classes? That I took a lot of classes? That I’m trained to defend myself. That I know how to kick ass when need be? That I know every possible pressure point so I can take guys your size down to their knees?”
“Yeah,” I said. “That’s what you did? You took classes? Self-defense?”
“I did what I had to do, Seb. Then. And now. And I’ll do it again if I have to.”
“Wait a second,” I said. “Did something happen?”
“A lot of things happen in life…”
“You know what I mean, April. What made you do this? You were never like this before. Something happened. Something…”
“Seb, it doesn’t really matter.”
“What if I say it does matter? I’m curious. I watched you take that guy down with ease. And then you just took me down. You didn’t take one or two classes. You’re… trained…”
