#Chapter109

Axel stops at the first hotel he sees, still quite away from civilization.

/"Aren't we going home?/" I ask him and he shakes his head.

/"No. I terribly need a few days alone with you, and away from what my life has become./" he sighs and runs his hand through his hair.

/"So it's true? The whole boxing thing?/" I ask him and he nods. /"Yeah, but we'll talk about that later. Let's just check in now, okay?/"

He looks at me and lifts his brows in question at my uncomfortable expression. /"What?/"

/"Well, um... I kind of need clothes./"

His eyes quickly pass through my body and he quietly curses. /"Right. Let's find a shop or something quickly./"

We find one in about five minutes. It's not Forever 21 or anything, but as long as it has pants and shirts, I'm fine with it. Axel quickly puts on his jacket and zips it up so he doesn't walk around shirtless, then he turns to me.
