You and Calum have been boxing rivals for years…publicly. Behind the curtains, you were lovers, already going 4 years and talking about marriage.

You promised each other not to make it public, wanting to keep their love lives secret.

He declined all the women and men that have offered themselves to him and even refused to take pictures with the ring girls.

Eventually, the time you both expected came. A match between the both of you. You promised not to go too hard but both understood that it was work and wanted to make it a fair match.

Come press day, it was time for the stare down, the thing you dreaded the most. It was hard not to kiss him anytime he was near, now you needed to be as close as possible.

As you both steeped up to the center of the stage and got closer, you tried to hold back your smile, as did he.

He whispered below his breath

“Hi, my love.”

He tried to hold back a laugh and leaned in closer, slightly nudging your nose.
