"I do."
I stomped his instep and brought my other elbow straight back into his gut as forcefully as I could. I was rewarded with a whoof of expelled air and an expletive best left unspoken. I wrenched my arm free of the guy and turned ready to have at him if he persisted.
"What the hell Dennis?"
Kurt,the house president had arrived on scene.
"Someone didn't want to take no for an answer Kurt."
"Yeah he didn't! Then he attacked me."
"Bullshit Conrad! I saw you have his arm twisted behind his back. He defended himself Kurt."
"Dennis?"
I just held out my wrist which was starting to bruise up but also had fresh scratch marks on it.
"Conrad,consider yourself lucky, and get out and don't come back,EVER!"
Once the guy had left Kurt turned to me.
"You keep beating people up we're going to get a bad reputation."
"I'm sorry Kurt,but nobody forces me where I don't want to go."
"I understand. Can we just have a relatively peaceful night from here on out?"
"As far as I'm concerned we can."
I turned around and headed upstairs alone. The bass beat subsided a little to the point I still wasn't going to get any sleep,but it was bearable.
11 ocock finally rolled around and my phone buzzed. It was Karls usual message and I texted him back. Very shortly after that the music was either turned down to the point I couldn't hear it or was stopped. I was asleep shortly after that until my alarm woke me to go jogging.
I changed and headed for the dorm and hooked up with Gordon. We did our laps and I went back to the frat to shower and change. I was headed back towards the dorm and was crossing a street when I heard a car accelerate. I dove back to the curb and a few seconds later heard the crump of impact.
I got to my feet and saw flames coming from under the hood. There didn't appear to be any movement in the car. Against all reason I headed for the car to find the driver unconscious. More than that didn't register at the time. I had to put every bit of muscle I had into getting the door open. Then it was a matter of reaching across and getting the seatbelt undone. That being accomplished,as carefully as I could I moved the guys body away from the car. I kept dragging him as far as I could before some other people came and gave me a hand to get a good distance away from the car.
It was a good thing too as just before the response vehicles showed up the whole thing went up in a huge fireball. It was then I noticed that the driver was Conrad.
By this time the campus police had shown up as well and I gave them the complete story starting at last night. Conrad was awake by this time and somebody informed him that it was me who had pulled him out of his car.
Conrad looked at me with the question in his eyes.
"Because nobody deserves to die due to stupidity."
Soon enough The fire was put out and Conrad was taken away in an ambulance. Just then my phone rang and it was Karl.
"I here sirens love coming from the direction of frat road. What did you do this time?"
"Why are you so sure I was involved?"
"Just a hunch love."
Just the tone in his voice told me that Karl was feeling better.
"I'll tell you over breakfast. What are you up for this morning?"
"Some kind of breakfast sandwich will do and tea."
"I'll see you in a bit."
I made my way to the cafeteria and grabbed sandwiches for us both and then made my way over to Karls dorm.
Again the door only opened wide enough for Karl to grab his food.
"So what the hell happened?"
I proceeded to explain from last night through this morning.
"You going to prefer charges against the guy?"
"Didn't know it was against the law to be stupid."
"Shit Den! He tried to run you down."
"If he was serious he would have waited another few seconds and not given me the chance to get out of the way. I think he was just trying to scare me."
"Why do I see another trip to the Deans office for you?"
"Maybe for the street action,but last night was handled in house. If the Dean asks I can't honestly say that I KNOW he was trying to run me down. Does it look that way? Yeah but could it be proven? I doubt it like hell and anything that might prove or disprove the allegation probably went up with the car."
"So it's not something that you are going to pursue?"
"Not unless he tries something else or the Dean pushes it."
"You're a better man than I am Gunga Din."
"It's just aggrevation I don't need Karl and I think the guy might have learned his lesson."
"And the only way you'll know is if nothing happens to you. I think waiting on THAT might be a major aggrevation."
"Could well be lover,but I'm just not going to think about it. So what are your plans for the day?"
"I'm just going to kick back for the day. Might take a shower later as I really need one. I wouldn't wait on me for jogging though."
"You going to get out for lunch or dinner?"
"I might make dinner,but again don't wait on me. If something presents itself to be done go for it."
"Okay. Call if you need anything. I shouldn't be far away unless I decide to hit the gym again."
"Ok Den. Love you."
"Love you more."
And with that I was once again out the door wondering just what the heck I would do with my day. Eventually I headed for the gym. I still needed to work up full duration routines for all of the apparatus. Before all of that though I still needed to work out a floor excercise and I figured to at least start that today.
I got to the rec center and changed and went to the apparatus room. There were a couple of guys in there,but the floor area was empty. I went over and just started to walk the area for a bit getting use to the dimensions of the area once again. After stretching out a bit I took an easy tumbling run and when I hit my landing I made it a point to stop and check where me feet were. I was at least an inch out of bounds. I tried it again and this time I satyed within bounds.
"Not bad for somebody who hasn't been doing it in a while Dennis."
"Hey Gary. Didn't see you there. So yeah worst discipline gets the most work. How are you doing?"
"Go in for the first cast over next weekend. Can't say as I'm looking forward to this."
"Can't say as I blame you. You need anything don't hesitate to call me,even if it's only an ear to bitch into."
"Thanks. So you working up a whole new routine here?"
"Yeah I think so,seeing as I don't really remember my old one."
"I thought that might be the case so if it's any help here's the one I was going to run this season. Use it or don't. I just thought it might be a help to you."
"Thanks I'll study it and see what happens."
I took the printed copy of the routine and started to walk it through so I could get some idea of the pace of it and the working area. Gary didn't leave and watched as I walked it out. Again it would be the tumbling runs which I was paying attention to. It was a routine that I was sure I could be fairly "clean" with. I took a while and commited the most difficult of the tumbling runs to memory and then did a slow walk though of it performing each movement seperately. I started adding a bit more speed to it about an hour later I performed the run at speed and when I finished it I once again checked my feet. Well within bounds.
"Now all you need is the balance of a routine."
"Yeah well I always start with the hardest parts first so they get the most work. But I think that's enough for today. Think I'll go hit the hot tub and shower up."
"Ok Dennis you take it easy and if I can help out at all you know I'll be around."
I hit the tub and then showered. When I checked my phone,Karl had called about a half hour before. I finished dressing and called him back.
"Sorry love was working out. What up?"
"I was just thinking about lunch is all. Have a good workout?"
"Yeah I spent the morning on my floor. Gary offered me his routine to work from. It's a good strong routine and I think I might only make minor changes to it. So what do you want for lunch?"
"Besides you? I'm going to live dangerously and go for a plain burger and a coke. I'm getting damn tired of tea."
"Ok I'll get it over to you soonest."
I headed for the cafeteria and grabbed a sandwich for myself and a plain burger for Karl and cokes for us both. I was soon enough over to Karls room. When I knocked he opened the door just enough to once again get his food.
"You good lover?"
"Yeah I think I'll survive. Still a little woozy but I'm getting there. So you going back to the frat tonight or your room?"
"Should probably be able to get back into my room tonight,but I'm waiting of Pete to give me the all clear. I suppose I'll be getting that almost any time now."
"You going to let them make this a regular thing?"
"I'm going to try not to. There are other arrrangements that can be made I am sure,though from waht Pete tells me Susans RA is a stickler for the 'book'."
"So no staying in her room. Well that leaves them with getting a room off campus."
"Or getting lucky in finding any vacant rooms,though I wouldn't hold out much hope for that."
"No probably not. Ok time for you to get the heck out of here and let me sleep. I'll call later about supper."
"Okay lover. When's you roomie coming back?"
"Probably later tonight,but definately tomorrow."
At that point my phone started ringing. I knew it wasn't Karl so I looked at the id and it just said unavailable.
"Hello?"
"click"
