There were only four girls in my Karate class, including myself.
The rest were all boys.
There were about twenty boys and four girls.
I came to Karate to get away from the drama at school, as well as the drama at home.
I loved Karate.
It was my escape from everything, which was why I was determined to get my black belt.
The other three girls enjoyed Karate just as much as I did.
We were all friends: Isabella, Elena, Sofia, and myself, Mia.
We were all high school students attending the same school in New York city.
One evening, we had our usual Karate class, and our instructor told us it was time for partner drills.
Instead of letting the four girls pair with each other, he paired each of the four girls with a boy.
None of the boys wanted to be paired with any of the girls, but they had no choice.
The first boy paired with Isabella looked absolutely miserable.
He stood there with his arms crossed, looking like he would rather be somewhere else.
The second boy paired with Elena looked just as unhappy.
The third boy paired with Samantha looked like he was about to cry.
The fourth boy paired with me looked like he was about to pass out.
I watched as Isabella stepped forward first.
Her face was set in a determined expression, and her partner stood there with his arms still crossed, looking sour.
Isabella was a short girl, maybe 5'2", while her partner was at least a foot taller than her.
We all held our breaths as Isabella positioned herself in front of him, bending slightly at the knees.
Without warning, she wrapped her arms around his waist and hoisted him up in a fireman's carry.
Her partner yelped in surprise, his arms flailing wildly as he tried to get out of Isabella's grip.
The entire class fell silent as Isabella steadily walked across the wooden floor, her footsteps echoing in the quiet dojo.
Her partner's face turned bright red as he dangled over her shoulder. When she reached the other end of the room, she carefully set him down on his feet and straightened her gi.
The room erupted in cheers, and for the first time, the boys looked at us with newfound respect.
Elena and Sofia followed Isabella's lead, each carrying their partners across the dojo.
The boys no longer looked resistant; instead, they looked a mix of awed and embarrassed.
When it was my turn, I stepped forward confidently.
My partner was taller than me and looked older than the other boys.
He grumbled under his breath but didn't resist as I positioned myself in front of him.
I bent my knees slightly, wrapped my arms around his waist, and lifted him onto my shoulders.
He was heavier than I expected, but I focused on my steps, crossing the dojo slowly and steadily.
The class remained silent, their eyes fixed on us.
Finally, I set him down gently on his feet and adjusted my gi.
After we had all carried our partners across the dojo, we regrouped and Isabella whispered a new plan to us.
We all agreed, and I walked back to my partner, who was still red-faced from the earlier embarrassment.
I turned my back to him and bent my knees slightly.
He stared at me for a moment, then hesitantly climbed onto my back.
I felt his legs wrap around my waist and his arms around my shoulders.
Once all four boys were mounted on our backs, Isabella counted down, and we sprinted to the other end of the dojo.
The boys held on tightly as we raced across the room.
Our footsteps echoed in the silence, and the class watched in stunned silence.
Halfway across the dojo, I felt something h#d against my back.
My partner's e###n pressed against me, but I didn't let it faze me.
I kept my pace steady, and the other girls and their partners were ahead of me, their footsteps echoing in the silent room.
As we neared the finish line, I could feel my partner's tension increasing.
Suddenly, he c###d, and I felt a warm l##d soak through my gi.
I grimaced but didn't stop.
I crossed the finish line, set him down on his feet, and wiped my back with a towel that Isabella handed to me.
"I'm so sorry," he mumbled, his face turning an even deeper shade of red.
"It's okay," I replied softly, trying to ease his embarrassment.
"Thanks for not dropping me," he added, a hint of gratitude in his voice.
Isabella stepped forward and outlined the new challenge.
This time, we would be carrying our partners piggyback style.
My partner, still looking embarrassed from the earlier incident, hesitantly climbed onto my back.
I adjusted my grip on his legs, feeling his weight shift slightly as I stood up straight.
We all lined up at the starting point of the dojo, the only sound being our movements.
Isabella counted down, and we began walking slowly across the dojo.
The room was silent except for the sound of our footsteps echoing off the walls.
I focused on maintaining a steady pace, feeling my partner's arms tighten around my shoulders as we moved.
As we reached the end, the boys slid off our backs, and for the first time, they bowed to us with genuine respect.
After the piggyback carry, my partner, still red-faced, approached me.
"Hey," he said softly, his voice filled with a mix of embarrassment and gratitude.
"I'm Jake."
I smiled at him.
"It's nice to meet you, Jake."
He fidgeted slightly, his eyes darting around the room before settling back on me.
"Thanks again for understanding earlier," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.
I nodded, feeling a sense of empathy towards him.
"It's okay, Jake. We all have our moments."
He took a deep breath and then asked, "Would you like to go out with me sometime?"
I was taken aback by his question, but I glanced over at Isabella, Elena, and Sofia, who were watching us from a distance with curious expressions.
I turned back to Jake and replied, "I'll think about it."
Jake nodded, a small smile forming on his lips.
"Okay. Thanks again," he said before walking away.
Elena approached me with a reassuring smile as we gathered our things after class.
She gently took my arm, guiding me to a quieter corner of the dojo.
"About Jake's invitation," she said softly, her voice steady and calm.
"You don't have to decide right away. Take your time."
I nodded, appreciating her understanding.
Elena continued, "If you do decide to go out with him, make sure to set boundaries and communicate clearly. And if you're not interested, let him down gently."
I listened intently as she spoke, noticing the thoughtful way she adjusted her gi and tied her hair in a neat ponytail.
"Thanks, Elena," I replied gratefully.
"I'll keep that in mind."
We walked back to join Isabella and Sofia, who were already waiting by the dojo's exit.
Isabella approached me, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
"How about a double date with Jake, my boyfriend, and me?" she proposed.
I hesitated for a moment, remembering Jake's earlier embarrassment and Elena's advice.
Isabella noticed my hesitation and added, "Don't worry, we'll make sure it's fun."
As we walked to the locker room to change, I mulled over Isabella's suggestion.
I glanced at Sofia and Elena, who were exchanging curious glances, waiting for my response.
Finally, I agreed to consider the double date.
"Okay, I'll think about it," I said to Isabella.
"I'll talk to Jake about it too."
Isabella beamed with excitement as we parted ways at the dojo entrance.
As I stepped outside, the crisp evening air filled my lungs, and I realized that this was just the beginning of something new.
After changing out of my gi at home, I sat on my bed staring at my phone.
I drafted and deleted multiple messages to Jake before finally deciding on what to say.
My fingers hovered over the keyboard as I remembered Isabella's suggestion about the double date and Elena's advice about setting boundaries.
Taking a deep breath, I typed out a simple message asking if he'd like to meet for coffee at the café near the dojo tomorrow after school to talk.
Before I could second-guess myself again, I hit send.
While waiting for his response, I busied myself by organizing my gym bag for tomorrow's class.
Five minutes later, my phone buzzed with an incoming message.
Jake had replied with a simple, "Sounds great, see you then."
The mall was bustling with people on a Friday evening, and the food court was filled with chatter and the clinking of dishes.
Isabella and I stood near a small table, talking quietly as we waited for our partners to arrive.
I took a deep breath and confessed to Isabella about what had happened with Jake during the piggyback carry.
Her eyes widened, but she quickly composed herself, nodding understandingly.
"I can't believe it," Isabella whispered, her eyes wide with surprise.
"It's crazy that it happened during class."
I sighed, feeling a mix of embarrassment and relief that it was out in the open.
"It was definitely unexpected," I admitted.
Isabella reached out and squeezed my hand reassuringly.
"It's okay, these things happen," she said softly.
"We've all been there at some point."
Just then, a cheerful voice called out Isabella's name from behind us.
We both turned to see her boyfriend walking towards us with a big smile on his face. "Hey, babe!" he exclaimed, wrapping his arms around Isabella in a tight hug.
He then extended his hand towards me for a handshake, introducing himself as Alex.
Isabella introduced me to him, explaining that we were on a double date with Jake.
Alex smiled warmly and asked if he had arrived yet.
We all turned to look at the agreed meeting spot for Jake, but he hadn't arrived yet.
"I'll give him a quick call to check where he is," I said to Isabella and Alex, pulling out my phone from my purse.
As I dialed Jake's number, Isabella leaned in and whispered, "I hope everything's okay."
Alex nodded in agreement, adding, "Yeah, he seemed pretty excited about today when I talked to him yesterday."
Just then, Jake picked up, sounding slightly out of breath, "Hey, I'm so sorry! I'm on my way; got caught up with something unexpected."
I watched as Jake hurried towards us, his face flushed with embarrassment and excitement.
Suddenly, his foot caught on a loose tile, and he slipped, crashing to the ground with a loud thud.
Isabella and Alex rushed over to help him up, while I stood frozen in place, unsure whether to laugh or feel sorry for him.
Jake grimaced in pain but managed a sheepish smile as he got to his feet, brushing off his clothes.
"I'm so sorry about this," he apologized, rubbing his elbow where he must have hit the ground hard.
"It's okay, accidents happen," Isabella reassured him, while Alex patted him on the back.
I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all.
"Are you alright?" she asked, her voice filled with concern.
Jake nodded, still looking a bit flustered but otherwise fine.
"Yeah, I'm good. Just a little clumsy sometimes."
Alex chuckled and said, "Well, at least you're consistent."
Jake grinned sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Yeah, I guess I am," he admitted, glancing at me with a hint of embarrassment.
I smiled reassuringly and said, "Don't worry, Jake. It's part of your charm."
As we strolled through the mall, I noticed Jake limping slightly.
"Are you okay?" I asked, concern etched on my face.
Jake shrugged it off, "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a minor sprain from the fall."
Isabella and Alex walked ahead of us, engrossed in their own conversation.
I stayed back with Jake, making sure he was alright.
We paused at a bench, and I insisted he sit down to rest his ankle.
Jake hesitated at first but eventually agreed.
As he sat down, he winced slightly, his face showing a mix of pain and embarrassment.
I sat beside him, watching as he adjusted his ankle.
"Maybe you should go home?" I suggested, concern evident in my voice.
Jake shook his head stubbornly, "No, I'm fine. I don't want our date to end like this."
Isabella and Alex stopped and turned around, noticing Jake's discomfort.
They exchanged worried glances but remained silent.
I looked at Jake, noticing his clenched jaw and the sweat beading on his forehead.
Despite his discomfort, he tried to stand up, leaning heavily on me for support.
"Let's continue our walk," he said, trying to sound casual despite his obvious pain.
I watched as he grimaced, his ankle clearly worse than he admitted.
The busy mall crowd flowed around our bench, while Isabella and Alex exchanged worried glances.
When Jake tried to take another step but failed, he let out a small laugh, trying to brush it off.
But I knew better.
"You're going home and I'm carrying you home," I said firmly, already moving into position.
Jake started to protest, but I cut him off.
"Either get on my back willingly or I'll lift you myself," I said, crouching down in front of the bench.
Jake hesitated, his face reddening as other shoppers stared at us curiously.
I crouched in front of him, ignoring the onlookers.
Jake sighed, his face red with embarrassment, but he relented and climbed onto my back.
I felt his weight settle as he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.
I stood up slowly, adjusting to his weight.
Isabella and Alex watched with concern as I began walking through the crowded mall.
Jake's injured ankle hung limply, and I could feel his breath against my ear.
Shoppers stared, some whispering, but I focused on navigating the mall's pathways.
As we moved through the crowd, Jake murmured, "I can't believe you're actually doing this."
I chuckled softly and replied, "Well, someone has to save the day, right?"
He tightened his grip slightly and whispered, "Thanks for not letting my pride get in the way."
I carried him through the mall, his injured ankle dangling as he clung to me.
Shoppers stared and whispered, but I focused on each step, feeling Jake's warm breath against my ear.
Isabella and Alex followed, their concern evident but silent.
As we neared the exit, Jake's grip tightened, and he whispered his gratitude for my help.
I carried him through the crowded mall, his weight heavy on my back.
As we neared the exit, I felt something h#d pressing against me.
Jake's e###n was unmistakable, and I tensed slightly but kept walking.
His warm breath tickled my ear as he whispered apologies, his voice laced with embarrassment.
I reassured him quietly, focusing on navigating through the staring shoppers.
Isabella and Alex followed closely, their expressions a mix of concern and amusement.
I pushed open the exit door, feeling the cool breeze as we stepped outside.
Jake's weight shifted on my back, his arms tightening around my shoulders.
We walked down the busy sidewalk, his injured ankle hanging limply.
I focused on each step, ignoring the curious glances from passersby.
Jake whispered apologies about his e###n, his breath warm against my ear.
I reassured him it was fine, concentrating on navigating through the crowd.
Isabella and Alex followed closely, their expressions a mix of concern and amusement.
We continued down the street, leaving behind the whispers and stares, as the city swallowed us whole.
I spotted a taxi and waved it down, eager to get Jake off my back.
The taxi pulled over, and I carefully maneuvered through the crowd, Jake's weight shifting with each step.
He clung tighter to me, his breath warm against my ear as he whispered another apology.
I reassured him it was fine and focused on reaching the taxi.
Isabella and Alex followed closely, their expressions a mix of concern and amusement.
I opened the taxi door, gently helping Jake slide off my back and into the seat.
I helped him into the taxi, his injured ankle still causing him pain.
He settled into the seat, his face flushed with embarrassment from the mall incident.
I closed the door behind him, feeling a mix of relief and concern.
The taxi pulled away, leaving me standing on the sidewalk, wondering what would happen next.
I walked Jake to his house, his injured ankle still causing him pain.
As we entered, he leaned heavily on me, his face flushed with embarrassment from the mall incident.
I guided him to the couch, where he sat down with a wince.
His mother appeared, surprised to see us, and I explained the situation.
She thanked me for helping Jake and offered me a drink.
While Jake rested his ankle, I sat nearby, sipping my drink and chatting with him about school and karate.
Occasionally, he glanced at me shyly and smiled.
