Location: Sam’s home
With: Rafael Graves

Just the previous night, Sam had watched as Rafael practically pummeled someone’s face into the ground during one of her underground fights. She believed that he’d tell her when he was ready what exactly was bothering him because she did see that something was, but she just didn’t know what. Plus, Sam had to deal with the conflicting feelings of her own because she was pissed that he’d do something like that on her turf, in her business. She hadn’t really understood the term not mixing business with pleasure until that night, and so she decided to give him some space, but after inviting him over and for there to be only steely silence between them, Sam decided that she couldn’t take it anymore.
“What’s up with you?” Sam practically demanded as she turned towards him after muting the show that was playing on the television. She was confused and very concerned, because while she knew Raf was a private man, she would have thought her boyfriend would at least give her a heads up about what was going on with him. “I know something’s bothering you, and I just don’t understand why you feel like you have to hide things from me. I’m your girlfriend,” Sam reminded him, the hurt visible on her face now. “Are you hiding something from me, Raf?” She asked, her eyebrows furrowing as she felt herself getting more and more frustrated.
