Chapter 187: Boxing Gym

When we entered the boxing gym, all eyes fell upon Sena and me. Of course, not just because of Sena's beauty but because of how she was sticking to me.

As a regular of this boxing gym, she's already a known face here and she's one of the most popular. A young, beautiful boxer, if she didn't become popular here I would doubt everyone's sexuality here. Since it's already about 4pm, the number of people still training has already dwindled.

"Sena-chan, who's be? Your boyfriend?"

One of the older regulars who seemed to be in his 50's already asked her when we passed by. The others were just watching or just didn't really care.

Sena didn't answer immediately, instead, she looked up at me and wordlessly asked what she would answer.

The label fits so I nodded at her and that immediately produced another smile on her lips.

"Yes!"

Her previous boyfriend had stopped going to this gym when I claimed her as mine back then. He probably noticed how Sena changed. Though she kept their relationship, he couldn't get past her defenses and that led to him turning sour. Sena confessed to me that they already broke up even before our graduation, she only kept up the illusion that she still has one in a bid to get my attention again.

"I see. Boy, you better take care of our Sena. She's the diamond of our gym. Huh. Wait, I've seen you before."

The old man reminded me but upon focusing on my face, he got confused and probably recalled the time I was still going to this gym.

"You probably did, Hisa-jii. I'm also a regular last year."

I knew this old man, he's a regular here and someone who's the co-owner of this boxing gym. He was a previous professional boxer, however, his career wasn't really good. He had more losses than wins and he never fought internationally, his career ended here.

"Oh! I see. You're that guy training her until late in the night. Onoda, right?"

"Yes. If you would excuse us. Let's catch up later."

"Ah! Go on. Don't mind this old man. Just remember what I told you."

"I remember, I'll take care of my Sena."

After a while, we entered the interior of the gym after registering my name again. Usually, those who take boxing as a hobby didn't stay this late and they all start in the morning. All those who could still be seen here were those who were looking for a career in boxing.

In Sena's case, this is something she has always pursued since middle school. Though the matches she participated in were all considered entry-level and school competitions, the passion she showed to it was real. I once asked her before if she wanted to be a pro and she answered yes. That's why she's too dedicated that she wouldn't miss a single day.

It's been a while since I was here so I took in the surroundings again, the interior of the boxing gym is a huge space where there were four boxing rings spread out in the middle. Some of it was occupied by those sparring or training with a coach. Surrounding the gym were various areas where one could train. There were heavy punching bags, speed bags and other such types of equipment for boxing.

"Coach!"

Further inside, Sena called out to a woman in her 20's wearing yoga pants and fitted tank top where her sports bra was peeking out. Her arms boasted her muscles and the gains she got from years of working out and practicing boxing. She was currently training with a heavy bag, each punch would generate enough power that the bag would be pushed out of its place.

When she heard Sena's voice, she stopped and turned around. This woman is also still the same. Ayuzawa Inaho. She was an olympic-level athlete but because of some kind of injury on her knee, it rendered her unable to enter the professional scene. Due to that, she retired early and switched to coaching young aspiring boxers.

"Long time no see, Onoda-kun."

Though Sena's the one who called out to her, she only gave her a passing glance and instead greeted me. They're always like that and Sena didn't mind it. From how many years she was under her coaching, she's like Sena's older sister by now.

"Ah. Coach Ayu. How are you doing?"

She scanned me from my head to my toes before a smile formed from her lips.

"Your form is still the same. You didn't stop training even after leaving the gym. When Sena told me you will come again, can you imagine how excited that girl is? Her performance spiked up again compared to when you're not here."

"Coach! You didn't have to tell him that."

With a blush on her face, Sena embarrassingly held onto the sleeve of my shirt.

"I can imagine, look at how she clings to me."

Riding Coach Ayu at her attempt to tease Sena, the latter punched my shoulder as retaliation.

"Idiot Ruki."

Coach Ayu laughed at us for a while before turning serious as if that's just the amount of laughter she could produce.

"Alright, you shouldn't show your lovey-dovey atmosphere to me. I've already seen that before and I'm already sick of it."

"Coach Ayu still couldn't find a guy for herself?"

This is probably why I didn't even attempt to go after her back then. This woman, despite her beauty and that figure she managed to carve for herself, couldn't land herself a guy. Maybe she's too picky or she just really doesn't want one.

When Sena heard that, the hold she had on my hand tightened, maybe afraid that I will also go after her coach now that the restriction of someone being in a relationship was removed. Well, there's really no point and she's not one of my targets, if anything, I wanted to thank her for taking care of Sena all these years.

So to ease her worry, I held her hand and clenched it tight while I turned to her and shook my head.

Even without any word exchanged, Sena understood what I was trying to say to her.

"Oh? Seems like you also grew more balls, Onoda-kun. Are you trying to tease me?"

"I'm just asking, coach. I remembered you kept grumbling about that before."

Upon hearing my words, like a demon who was awakened, Coach Ayu's smile turned sinister as she pointed to an empty ring near us.

"Now you've done it. I guess a lesson is in order for you. Take up your gloves and get up there."

"Wait Coach. He's here to help me not to be trained by you."

Sena got in between us to shield me from her coach.

"Quiet Sena, I'll just give a short lesson to your boyfriend."

Still with a hint of irritation on her voice, Coach Ayu shushed Sena.

Well, I could take her lesson but like Sena said, I'm here for her and not for a lesson. I guess I should start being careful with my tongue. I pushed her wrong button, eh?

"I'm sorry coach, like Sena said, I'm here to help her. Maybe next time?"

Hearing my response, Coach Ayu flared up before releasing a deep sigh.

"I forgot, your tongue is already like this ever since. Go on, change your clothes and start on her training."

"Thank you, coach!"

Sena cheerfully hugged her before pulling me to the locker room, leaving Coach Ayu behind who resignedly sighed again as she shook her head.

"Onoda-kun, I leave Sena in your hands."

I looked back and nodded at her as an answer before Sena and I disappeared into the locker room.

Usually, the locker room was divided by men and women but at this time, where there's only a few of us left in the gym, it didn't matter anymore. Pulling me inside the women's locker room which was currently devoid of people, Sena put her things on one of the lockers before asking for mine. She will store it to the same locker as hers

Before leaving, I already prepared a change of clothes for my time here so I gave it to her after taking out the clothes I will change into.

I'm not fond of tank tops so I only brought another shirt and gym pants like what Sena is wearing.

"Let me take it off you."

After taking my bag and putting it inside, Sena drew close to me and put her hands on the hem of my shirt, intending to strip me of it. There's a blush on her face as she stared at my chest, yearning to see what's beneath my clothes.

Since it's been a while, I let her do what she wanted. I raised my arm as she pulled my shirt up, taking it off me. As soon as she did, she threw it behind her as she drew closer, putting her hand on my chest, tracing it with her fingers.

After a while, she looked up and reached for my lips. The kiss from earlier was probably not enough. Now that we're in a somewhat private space, Sena let loose of her longing for me.

Lowering my head a bit, our lips touched again and another passionate kiss ensued between us and this time, it's more passionate than earlier. From standing in front of her locker, I slowly moved us further inside and pushed her back to the locker, letting her lean on it while I continued to kiss her.

Our tongues once more searched for each other. Her arms clung to the back of my neck as our kiss grew deeper than our bodies started to heat up from the situation.

Still, Sena got a grasp of our situation, once we became satisfied from that short bout of passion we separated with a smile on both of our faces.

"I love you, Ruki."

With her sweetest voice, Sena whispered as she gave me another kiss.

"Un. I love you too, Sena."

And I responded to her carrying the same meaning and feelings that I feel for her.

Even if we didn't always evolve to erotic situations, times like this where we could convey our love to each other was enough. It's not that we didn't feel lust towards each other but there's a proper time for it, we're here for her training after all.

After helping her take off her shirt, she changed into a fitting tank top like Coach Ayu in front of me. Once we're done changing, we went out of the locker room together to start her training.
