Seducing My Ex's Father In Law

She frowned as she watched me walk towards the training center; there were two vending machines right outside the door. One with healthy snacks, and the other with waters, Gatorades, and energy drinks.

"You know those aren't good for you, right?" She asked, following after me. "Plus, you might crash out later."

I went to grab my wallet from my bag to grab some singles, ignoring her warning. I grabbed a few dollars and chose the drink that didn't sound awful. As soon as the can popped out, I opened it and took a sip, wincing at the taste.

She frowned at me and folded her arms across her chest.

"Seriously, what's wrong with you?" She asked. "You seem off... not yourself. Are you focused because this part of the competition is crucial?"

"I'll be ready,” I told her. “You don't need to worry about me. Just worry about yourself."

She went to open her mouth to speak again but closed it when she saw Gavin approaching. He walked with determination in his steps and my entire body froze at the sight of him. His shirt was off and the sweat on his muscly body indicated he either came from the gym, or he got another type of workout this morning. The thought turned my stomach.

I refused to break down in front of him though. I had to keep myself strong.

"Can we talk?" He asked, ignoring Tabby's presence.

"I'll see you in a bit," Tabby murmured as she walked away.

I took another sip of my drink without meeting his eyes.
