Kane had traveled with the Hardy Boyz for too long, their brotherly love, aka ragging on each other all day and night was getting on his nerves. Then there was Jeff's boyfriend, aka Jeff's best friend Randy Orton. Kane had had it with Randy's constant girl chasing, it always reminded Kane of the fact it had been years since Kane had been in love. Kane grabbed his bags and packed everything that was his out of the small hotel room he shared with Matt, then wrote a quick note for Matt.

Hey Matt, I'm going to take the weekend to myself and drive down to Fort Worth in my car. I'll meet back up with y'all at the hotel there. Keep safe and call if anything goes wrong. See you - Glenn

After that Kane made a quick detour to the hotels lobby and looked through the rack of attractions around the hotel but did not find anything that seemed to catch his eye, so with an empty weekend in-front of him and just a short drive to the next town he all most thought about giving up, but as he turn to go back up stairs he saw Orton with a giggling girl on his arm. That was the pushed that Kane needed and he headed out to his own SUV. He placed his bags in the back sit in put in the CD Jeff had made him and started down the road. Kane tried to listen to the songs Jeff had told him he was sure Kane would love but none seemed to hold Kane's thoughts. His thoughts seemed to all go back to all the times Matt had tried to get Kane to go talk to a woman at a bar or party, but Kane always gave Matt a look that asked him to stop and Matt would, but they both knew Kane really would have like to talk to any of the woman. Kane was just always sure they would turn him down. He saw the signs for Fort Worth before he knew it, the two-hour drive end sooner than he realized. He thought about going straight to the hotel and dropping his bags, but his stomach growled. Kane looked for an exit and pulled of the highway looking for something to eat. His eyes landed on a little restaurant that was open for breakfast but had only one car in the parking lot and Kane decided this was most likely the best choice for not being recognized. He turn off the car, and looked around the car, almost still expecting the boys to be in the car, "Man, its been months since I've been by myself."

Kane walked into the little room that severed as the dinning room, a small blond walked out of the back room when she heard the bell over the door ring. "Hello, sit any where you like and I'll get a menu." The young girl called without looking up from the note pad she was writing on. Kane found a sit in the back facing away from the door so if any one did come in they could not see him.

The young girl turn around after grabbing a menu and all most missed the man, who was her first and most likely her only costumers for breakfast she never had any costumers but her dad always wanted a 24 hour dinner so here she was with her first costumer after last nights dinner rush, his head was just visible over the high-backed booth he sat in.

"Hi, what can I get you to drink?" The girl asked, as she laid down a menu in-front of him, and taking a look at him, he saw her eyes go big, but she shook her head and pulled her lips into a smile without saying anything.

"Coffee if you have it, but if not.."

"I can make you some it will take just a few minutes."

"If you don't mind." Kane said smiling, he was trying to see if she knew who he was, or if she had just been surprised by his size.

"Nope, let me just go get that started then I'll come get your food order." She smiled again as she turn to go back into the kitchen. Leaving Kane to look at the menu, he laughed out loud when he read the front page, "The only breakfast I serve is The Texas: three eggs, beacon, ham and grits. You don't like it get out." Kane looked up again as the girl came back to the table a few minutes later, "you picked some thing, honey?"

"Well I was thinking I would like pancakes and sausage." Kane watched as the woman's face turned a bright pink as she looked down at the seat in-front of Kane, and then sat down in it.

"Well I think I would like that to and since that's not on the menu, I guess you are the one that's going to go make it." The girl said pushing her hair back out of her eyes and staring into Kane's.

Kane stood and walk into the kitchen as if it was an everyday occurrence that a waitress told him to go cook his own meal. Kane walk to the sink and washed his hands, then notices the coffee was done brewing so pulled two coffee cups down and poured coffee into them, not turning when he heard the door open and close behind him. He found a stack of sugars and poured some into his cup and stirred it in then took a quick sip. His lips turn into a smile as he turn to see the young girl sitting at the table in kitchen her nose in a book. He walked to the table sitting down the coffee cups, "Black?"

"Yes that's fine, and please just don't set the place on fire, my little sister asleep up stairs."

"Okay, so your eating anything I make?" Kane said, unsure if she was really going to let him cook for himself.

"As long as it is good, you're a big man, I guess you must know how to cook without burning it, right?" She asked, not removing her eyes from the pages of the book she was reading, it looked as if she had just started it, but it was a well-worn copy of Pride and Prejudices.

Kane walked around to the double ice boxes he look into them trying to see what there might be inside. He saw eggs and a few pieces of ham he could dice and on the counter a few vegetables to chop, cheese to mix in. "How about omelette?"

"That's fine, anything you want babe I'm going to run out and get the meat for lunch today I'll be back in ten."

"Okay sugar! " Kane said, without turning to the door she walked out of, he diced everything and mixed it with some cheese, then beaten a dozen eggs. His movements where swift, he had been out of a kitchen for to long for his own liking, he missed the feeling of being able to cook for himself, the freedom and the happiness He purred half his egg mixture into the skillet he had on the stove, then filling it with half the filling mixture, then repeated the same steps for a second omelette. He just placed the plates on the table when the young woman walk into the kitchen again. "So what is for lunch?"

"Pork chops." She said, without really looking at him, just moving to the table and started chopping potatoes.

"Just Pork chops? That does not sound very filling." Kane said, trying to get the young girl to open up to him, the way she didn't even care he was in her kitchen, left him alone in the restaurant it was starting to worry him, and yet he wanted to know why she felt so conformable around a complete stranger.

"Well no, the are six main veg's everyday, than a soup that changes every day, and one special veg or dessert item."

The girl seemed to finally realize Kane waiting on her to eat, so she took a bite of the omelette sitting in-front of her. As she swallowed she smiled, he could cook and she was happy to see he clean up after himself. So she relaxed back into her sit and ate in between Kane's questions, "So your family live upstairs?"

"Me and my little sister, live upstairs. I run this place and she goes to school."

"So who helps you run this place?"

"We have a staff of four, they all work lunch and dinner, A.K.A we are open 24 hours a day and only sale anything for lunch and dinner."

"So you think you could use the help of one more in the kitchen today?" Kane asked, all most expecting her to at minute freak out because of his forwardness.

"Well, I don't know... you any good at frying pork chops?"

"I think so, but if not you can tell me to stop."

"Tell free help to stop, you must think I'm crazy!"

"Okay then, so where can I start?" Kane asked, standing and gathering his and her dishes.

"The green beans, or corn. I'll be right back, honey I'm going to go make sure my little sister is up."

"Okay sweetie."

"Jinx? Jinx?" A old voice called a few minuets after Kane had been by himself. Kane turn to see a woman closer to his own age walk into the kitchen but his eyes fell back to his work, he had seen the person he wanted to fall for and now after two hours of knowing her he finally had a name to call her, even if it didn't sound like it was her real name. "Hum? Sir by chance do you know where Jinx is?"

"She went up stairs to check on her little sister."

"Oh! Okay." The woman said, taking a seat at the table and working on the potatoes Jinx had left.

"Lisa, what are you doing? You know you don't need to do that, I got it."

"Oh I know, just keeping busy while I waited, Courtney ready yet?"

"Two more minuets then she should be down, thanks again for taking her."

"You know I'd do anything to help, how she doing?"

"Getting better, she cry's a lot less now but she still can't bring her self to go in his room."

Kane worked on the green beans facing away from the two women but listing to their conversation. Jinx's voice was sad as they talked about HIM and it made Kane think who and what the lady's where talking about. A younger girl around 17 came down the stairs and froze when she saw Kane, Kane's eyes meet hers and he knew whether or not if Jinx knew who he was, this girl did.

"Courtney, come on Lisa still has to get to work after dropping you off, please don't make her late." Jinx's voice made Courtney jump, and she rushed down the stairs to Jinx throwing a kiss on her check then following Lisa out the door.

The room was quite again and Kane was thinking hard about if Jinx knew who he was, was she acting like she did not know and if so why? She was not hitting on him so maybe she knew but just didn't care. Or maybe? His mind thought of a thousand maybe's, and he was only brought out of his own mind when Jinx called to him. "Hey, that's not going to be anywhere close to enough green beans baby."

"Oh well, how many more?"

Jinx walk in to a second room and came back with a 20 pound sack of green beans, "half to cook for lunch and half for dinner."

"Oh y'all really get this busy?"

"Yea, we will serve about 300 plates for lunch and 400 for dinner."

"Oh!"

"Yep, you changing your mind about wanting to help?"

"No, I'm happy to help as long as I get to stay back here, I don't do well with crowds."

"Really? I would think you would do fine Glenn." Jinx's smiled, turning away from him, trying to hide her face but Glenn reached out to her face and moved the hair that cover her face, then moved her eyes even with his, searching hers for answers.

"So you know who I I'm, so now I have to ask why?"

"Why, what?" Jinx asked, looking into this mans eyes, of course she knew who he was, her dad had loved WWE, and him and his girls had always watched it together. She had seen his coming out match, and everyone after that.

Kane looked into her eyes harder now seeing love and awe in them, "Why didn't you act like you knew me from the beginning?"

"You seemed like you where hiding, sitting in the back facing away from the door, I thought maybe you would like to act like you where no body for a little while. Be no one but just some guy for a few hours, but I knew as soon as my little sister saw you that would end, she would be unable to hide the fact she knew who you are." Kane listened to the young woman talk and felt his body relax it her words, the were the truth, not only why she did it, but also the fact he wanted it, needed it. Her small frame was now so close to his large one he felt the need to step back but could not make his body move, he craved this closeness.

"I wanted to hide from people who only want to know Kane, but you called me Glenn, you know me as more than just some show name."

"I know you do your job but every once in a while we all need a break from it all." Jinx stepped even closer to Kane bringing her body rights ageist his, I'm sorry if I upset you that was not what I wanted to do. I just wanted to give you what you needed."

Glenn's eyes where on Jinx's lips as she spoke to him, her words where soft and if she had not stepped in he would have never heard her a last few word. "I need..." Glenn wanted to beg this woman for her body, but his mind knew that would be inappropriate but even as he tried to find the words to beg, the back door opened drawing Jinx's body away from him. Kane turn to see an old woman walk in to the kitchen and start to talk to Jinx.

"Oh Jill, what have you broken now?"

"I have not broken anything. He is just going to help cook today."

"Oh, is someone not coming in?" The woman asked, looking Kane up and down but not acting as if she reckoning him from any where so Kane breathe a sigh of relief.

"No every ones coming, Glenn is just going to help, but now that your here I'm going to run up and take a nap then shower. Glenn I'm going to go up stairs do you want to come up and watch T.V. or stay down here and Molly can tell you what you can help with?"

"I think I'm going to come up I need to sit down for a little while if I'm going to be any use later." Kane said, following Jill's moves and steeping into the stair case behind her.

As soon as Jill had Kane in the small living room up stairs she turn on him, "I'm sorry, I don't mean to upset you, it just I have thought so many times how cool it would be to meet you, then to day you show up and I was unsure..." Jill's next sentences was cut off as Kane took Jill's cheek and lifted it to a position he could lean down just a touch and press his lips ageist hers. Jinx didn't know how to react and Kane pulled back worried he missed read her. Had he just forced his lips on hers?

"Glenn?"
