Chapter 1

I sighed as I walked up to the front desk of the gym.

"What's got you down?" My roommate and best friend, Amy Dumas asked.

"It's another Friday night and how do I spend it: at the gym. I want to be out on a date," I, Patricia "Trish" Stratigias replied.

"You know the gym is a good place to meet guys. So you're on the right track."

"Easy for you to say, Miss I Have a Boyfriend."

Amy shrugged. "I'm sorry, Trish. But you have to be patient. The right guy is out there and he'll come a long."

"I know but I am sick of being single."

"It is better to be single than in the wrong the relationship."

"Very true."

"Okay, well, I'm going to go home. I'll see you later."

"Okay, bye."

I walked around the counter and gave Amy a hug. I then headed out the door. As I was walking, Amy called back to me. I chuckled and turned to look at her. I then turned back to the front and nearly collided with someone.

"Oops, sorry," I said. "Oh, hey, John."

"Hey," John Cena. "Sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going. I got a text from Randy."

"That's okay. Amy called to me."

John nodded his head. "Well, it looks like you're headed out the door. I won't keep you."

"Thanks. I'm going to head home, shower and cook me some dinner."

"No date tonight?"

"No," I said.

John nodded his head. "Yeah, me neither."

"Yes, well, I'll let you go get your workout in."

"Thanks, I'll see you later."

"Bye."

I walked away then.

I sighed as I walked outside and into the cool autumn air. It felt very nice on my skin. I enjoyed the walk from the gym to my apartment building.

(John's POV)

I sighed as strolled up to the counter/front desk on the gym. I looked at Amy.

"Hey John," Amy said.

"Hey," I said. "Randy told me to wait here for him."

"Oh, do you two have a date tonight?" Amy teased.

"Ha-ha."

Amy smiled. "I'm kidding. Randy and Stacy don't have a date tonight?"

"No, Stacy has to work."

"Well, we all have to make a living somehow."

I nodded my head. "How's the relationship with Phil?"

"It's good. We're good. We're doing great."

"Yep, everyone has a girlfriend or boyfriend, but me."

"Trish is single. She wants a boyfriend. You should ask her out."

I shook my head. "No, I can't. We're too good of friends.

"That's completely perfect. You two started out as friends and can turn into something more. Ask her out."

I shook my head.

I unlocked the door and opened it. I walked into the apartment, closing the door behind me, and relocking it. I threw my gym back down on the ground. I then walked into the kitchen and looked in the refrigerator. I decided to make Chicken Fries and Tator tots for dinner. I grabbed both bags from the freezer and preheated the oven to 450 degrees. I grabbed a cookie sheet from the draw underneath the stove. I counted out fifteen chicken fries and took two handfuls of tator tots from their bags, placing them on the cookie sheet. I then put the Chicken Fries and Tator Tots back in the freezer. I left the oven to preheat as I walked into my bedroom.

In my bedroom, I sat on my bed, taking off my shoes and socks. I took my socks and threw them in the hamper. I then stood up and walked into the bathroom. I turned the shower on. Sticking my hand under the water, I felt the temperature of it. It was a little bit too cold so I adjusted it. Sticking my hand under the water again, I felt the temperature of it. It was warm enough for me. I stripped out of my clothes. I then got in the shower.

After taking my shower, I got dressed and headed back into the kitchen. The oven was preheated so I took the cookie sheet with my chicken fries and tator tots and placed it inside. I then felt my dinner to cook. I went into the living room and turned on the TV. I turned on Pretty Little Liars on DVD. It was one of my favorite shows.

(John's POV)

My buddy and roommate, Randy Orton met me at the gym. We both lifted weighted and chit chatted. It was our time to hang out and catch up. Randy spent most of his time with his girlfriend, Stacy Keibler. Stacy was working late tonight.

"Come on, John, one more," Randy said as he was spotting me.

I lifted the bar with weights on it.

"There you go, John. There you go," Randy said as he helped me put the bar back on its post.

I slowly sat up. I wiped the sweat from my brow. I grabbed my bottle of Gatorade and took a sip of it. I looked around the gym. I spotted two females checking me and Randy out.

"Two girls checking us out," I said.

Randy looked at me as he had put weights back. "I don't care. I got a girlfriend. You go talk to them."

"Screw that. I need a wing man.

"Yes, well this wing man has a girlfriend and doesn't want to piss her off, by playing your wing man."

"Fine. I won't even go and talk to them."

"Dude, two for the price of one. Do it!"

"Don't think I won't." I got up from the bench and walked over to the two girls who were checking me and Randy out.

(Trish's POV)

I sighed as I sat down in the living room to eat my dinner and continue to watch Pretty Little Liars. I hated sitting at home on a Friday night. I wanted to go out and have a good time. I wanted a boyfriend. I hated being single.
