For You

"AHHH!!! SAM!!!" Alex ran up to Sam and hugged him tightly.

"You got into the academy! That's so cool!"

Daniel pulled her away from Sam and pouted. "How come he gets hugs and I don't? I also passed."

Alex cuddled with Daniel. "I already cuddled with you though! This is Sam's moment!"

Sam pulled Alex away from Daniel. "Yeah, this is MY moment." He smirked and devilishly at Daniel, who was saddened by the fading warmth in his arms.

Alex hugged Sam. "So tomorrow you're moving away to a different school and area... So is Daniel."

"Yup."

Alex sniffled. "Why do both of my best friends have to leave me at the same time?"

"We can always hangout later. And if you and Daniel want to go on a date when we're idols, I can tag along as a third wheel to make it seem like a hangout and not a date."

Alex looked up at Sam. "You would do that? You already suffer when we all get together to hangout. On dates, you might die from the PDA."

"Then try not to kill me. At least when we get famous, you guys can't make out in public anymore."

Daniel thought about it and frowned. "What about in private?"

"When we get to a private place, there still might be paparazzi."

"Oh yeah, but the house is fine."

"Windows."

"We can cover them."

"Then I'll be in another room while you two do things that make me cringe. "

"I guess that's the plan, you horny teens. So desperate."

Daniel scowled at Sam who raised up his hands in surrender. "Fine! You guys aren't desperate horns teens!"

"Only Daniel is a desperate horny teen," Sam muttered under his breath.

"Hey! I heard that!"growled Daniel as he began to approach Sam.

"NOPE!" yelled Sam as he darted past Daniel and ran away from him.

"Come here!" Daniel ran after Sam and they played cat and mouse around a couple of desks.

After chatting for a couple of hours, the sky started to turn dark and they said their goodbyes and went home.

Then Sam remembered that the dojo was open and decided to go visit. Though it was dark, the dojo was still open and the sound of fighting could still be heard. When Sam opened the door to the dojo, he was greeted by the scene of two black belts sparring fiercely with lines of kneeling people that had belt colors ranging from white to black all around them. There was an old, but vigorous looking old man that stoood out in the lines. The dojo master.

The man raised his hand and closed it in a fist. The two fighters immediately stopped and stood shoulder to shoulder, facing him.

"Your fist is clenched too tightly and your moves are to stiff. Show improvement within a week or you get punishment." One of them shuddered at the sound of the word "punishment". One could clearly tell that the punishment was horrific.

"As for you, your form was not perfect, which is alright, but you did not take opportunities that you could have taken. I am disappointed. You both have let me down. Both of you must practice. Speaking of practicing. If it isn't Sam. Here after skipping a week's worth of practice."

Sam went over to the man knelt before him.

"Please forgive me, I have been busy this past week."

"Busy with what?"

"I auditioned for Silver Entertainment and was accepted."

The master stared down at Sam for a while with an unreadable face before he broke out into hearty laughter and smiled widely.

"That's the company that has martial artists! My favorite ones! The ones on my wuxia dramas."

Sam's mouth twitched. You're okay with it because of your TV shows!

"I'll let you off this time and will allow you some slack. As long as you come every so often and your skills haven't dulled, I won't punish you."

"Thank you master."

"Let's spar now!"

Sam got up from his kneeling pose. "Okay."

The master rose and they went to the center of the room, the lines of students following to watch the show.

"Mixed Martial Arts rules, only one round. You don't need to change unless you want to."

Sam looked down at his sweatpants and his hoodie and looked around at the gi wearing students surrounding them.

"I'll go change into a gi."

Sam borrowed a spare gi from one of the students he was friends with and quickly changed into it.
