Trouble and True Hearts will continue Fantasy is just my own little what if it'll only be about 5 (if that) chapters.
Cassie was in Oklahoma City for her birthday weekend and SmackDown. She couldn't wait to see her favorite wrestlers go at it the next day but for the day before she and her best friend Leigh were just going to do their thing and go to dinner after checking into the hotel. They each had their own room adjacent to each other. Leigh knocked to the door letting Cassie know she was ready and waiting on her.
"I'm almost ready!" She called out.
They left the hotel and went to a local club that she'd been to before. Leigh left her by the bar to dance with some guys and Cassie just set there enjoying her margarita laughing at her friend. Some one set beside her but she was thumbing through her texts and didn't pay any attention until she heard a voice she was sure she could distinguish from any other in the world. Leigh told her she was basically a stalker just because she did know that voice well and anything that he let out in public she knew.
Cassie turned her head and was met with curiously blue eyes, they played in the light going from grays to blues. She tried to look away she her heart would stop pounding and her breathing would start again but she couldn't and she had a suspicion it had something to do with the way he was looking at her. At 5'4 and a 175 pounds with dark hazel eyes and dark brown hair that barely passed her shoulders, she knew she wasn't special, that's why the guys always choose tall, blonde, blue eyed Leigh. So his attention on her was a little disturbing.
"Hi." He said and his raspy drawl settled on her skin making her shiver.
"Hello." She said as soon as the rushing in her ears stopped.
"I'm Jon."
I know wanted to escape her mouth but she said, "Cassie," instead.
"Hello Cassie." He said before take a drink from the long neck the bartender had placed in front of him. "You from here?"
"No. I'm here for my birthday."
"Oh. You don't look to happy about that."
"I'm turning twenty seven only a few more years and I'll be thirty not much to be happy about."
He laughed. "Women"
"Excuse me?"
"I'm only a few days from twenty nine and a year until I'm thirty. If I was a woman I'd probably be freaking out."
She laughed. "But Mr. Jonathan Good doesn't lose his cool about anything."
He smiled amused and took another slow drink. "So you do know who I am."
It wasn't a question if was just a statement. "Yes."
He simply stared at her and she wasn't sure where to go from there and by the look in his eyes neither was he. They set there watching each other, it was like they were drawn to each other by some weird magnetized force even when her phone went off she didn't look at it only pushed the bar to decline.
Their concentration was broken. "Hey Lil Mama!" Leigh called as she made her way to where Cassie set.
Cassie only looked away one second but it was enough for Jon to snap out of the weird force. He was freaked out more by his own behavior than hers. When she turned toward her friend he made his getaway. He turned when he knew she couldn't see him any longer only to see a light disappointment cross her face. He understood because he felt it too.
"Who were all chatty and laughy with?" Leigh asked as they walked out into the mild night.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." She said climbing into the driver's seat of her Jeep. "Are you feeling okay? You don't look so good."
"Maybe it's the booze mixed with what we had for lunch. I don't know. Mind if I skip girl night so I can be ready to go tomorrow night?"
"No Hon. Want to get something to eat or some water before we head to the hotel?" Cassie looked over at her friend who was passed out. "Someday you'll listen to me."
As she drove back across the bright city she thought about her very odd and very much blindsided meeting with Jon. She had known something was going to happen on this trip and she had been hoping it would be good. Now she was left to wonder if meeting him had been what that something was. She smiled and turned up the radio when her favorite Avril Lavigen song came on.
"And that's why I smile. It's been awh…"
"…Please turn that down." Leigh complained.
She complied with her friend. "Good you're awake and I don't have to carry you up the fucking stairs again."
"Shut up." Leigh said and crawled from the car when Cassie parked.
Cassie noticed the rental car beside her spot but only because it was a 2013 Chevy Corvette. Who the hell would risk renting that car? She thought as she steadied her friend on the snow slickened stairs. She dropped Leigh off in her room making sure she at least had water and aspirin and half landed on the bed. She went to her room using the adjacent door. There was a big black suitcase on the bed that she knew wasn't hers and another smaller army bag she definitely knew wasn't hers.
"What the hell?' She asked the room. Then she heard the shower. "Who the hell?"
Not being one to run she walked to the bathroom and slung the door open. The one person she had always wanted to see naked was standing with his back turned to the door. She screamed and shut the door. Jon jumped and spun around only to see the girl from the club slam the door shut.
