Carter's Home

The only thing audible sound this morning was the light snore of a male. His arm was dangling from the bed, that was until his alarm clock was blaring off. He raised his arm up and slammed his hand onto the device, rolling over to the other side of his bed, throwing the covers over his head. A soft groan came from him when he was still sleep, because now his cell phone was going off. He threw the covers to his mid-body then sat up, leaning over and reaching with his left hand as he answer the phone. "Hello?" Another male's voice could be heard on the other line. "Hello Carter, how are you doing this morning?"Carter rolled his eyes then laid back down as he listened to the male. "What do you want?" The male was silence for a moment then let out a sigh. "I want you back." Carter hung up the phone then threw it back on the nightstand.

Carter got out of bed, wearing nothing but basketball shorts as he ran down the stairs, going into the kitchen. There, he made him a protein shake and drunk it til the last drop. He ran his hand over his mouth, removing the excess protein mustache. He sat the cup in the sink then went back upstairs, where he made his bed, brush his teeth, took a shower and changed into some street clothing, which was nothing but blue jeans, a t-shirt and a pair of Sperry's. He grabbed his car keys and tossed them up in the air before heading out of his room and back downstairs, going outside, making sure that his door was locked and secured. He unlocked his vehicle, which was a 2012 Dodge Charger, blue in color, with a simple click of a button. He got inside of the car, strapped his seat belt on and cranked his engine up. He eased out onto the road.

Gold's Gym

After about thirty minutes of driving, Carter made it to his buddy's gym. "Hey Carter, what's up?" Fred had asked him, as soon as he walked through the door. "Nothing much." Carter replied, shaking hands with Fred then looking at the cage setup. "Ever thinking about getting back into the cage, slugger?" Fred punched Carter a few times, playfully then Carter responded after laughing. "I don't know." Fred sigh, patting Carter's back then walked away. Carter then walked up to the cage, placing his hand on the cold steel, grasping it as he let it go, the cage shaking. Carter went over to the steps and walked right inside the cage, placing his hands in his pockets as he lowered his head, letting a soft sigh.
