"Jon, we can't" I moan softly as he kisses my neck, his stubble grazing my collarbone. "Oh fuck Chloe" he moans back, rubbing himself against me. "I can't fight this anymore. You have to, I mean, we have to, tell Colby." I push him away, unable to contain the roar of surprise. "We what?" I yell, groaning as his hand clamped down over my mouth. "Do you want him to find us in here?" he hisses. I shake my head, and he moves his hand. "Jon" I say, hopefully a little more calmly than I feel. "I can't do that. I can't do any of this. I'm marrying Colby. I have to go." I open the door slightly, checking up and down the corridor, and when I'm satisfied it's empty I step out, closing the door to the janitors closet behind me.
"There you are!" a voice says. I freeze, finally turning around and forcing a smile as my fiancé bounds down the corridor towards me. "Hi" I squeak, kissing his cheek as he hugs me tightly. "I'm actually looking for Ambrose" he says, looking down the corridor again. "Have you seen him?" I shake my head quickly. "Who knows with him?" I ask, pretending to look too. "Have you tried the divas locker room?" Colby laughs. "First place I tried" he says, kissing me. "I'm gonna go check ringside. You wanna tag along?" I shake my head, smiling at him. "I was on my way to catering" I say. "Kinda hungry. Certain fiancé made me work up an appetite before he came to work..." "And he intends on making you work up another appetite later" he warns. "So eat plenty. I love you." "I love you too" I whisper back, kissing him and waving as he walked off down the corridor.
The door opens behind me and I jump as Jon touches my arm. "That was close" he snaps. I look at him quickly. "What's with the mood?" I hiss, not surprised when he glares at me. "Oh I don't know" he says. "Maybe hearing that the woman I'm in love with, the woman I love with all my heart, the only woman I want, is planning on fucking..." "He's my fiancé Jon!" I hiss back at him. "He's the reason I'm here, the reason I'm in this fucking mess. Colby is the reason I came to America Jon." He nods. "Then what am I, Chloe?" he asks quietly, as if he doesn't really want to know the answer. "You?" I ask, touching his cheek lightly. "Jon, you are the reason I stay here." I kiss his cheek quickly before walking off down the corridor, not looking back when he yells after me.
"Hey Chloe" Nikki says, walking into catering. I smile up at her, pausing my game of spinning the lid off my water bottle across the table. "Penny for them?" she asks, grabbing a bottle of water and sliding into the seat across the table from me. "I can't, Nikki" I whisper. "Believe me, I wish I could, but this, this you don't need to know." "Is it Colby?" she asks, looking around. I shake my head without even looking up at her. "No" I say. "This, this is different. Nothing to do with Colby at all." She nods, looking over my head and smiling. "Ambrose" she says. I look up quickly. "What?" I ask. She laughs. "Ambrose" she repeats. "Come help me get Chloe out of this funk she's in will you? Something's bugging her and she won't tell me. You're her best friend, you get it out of her." I watch as Jon comes into view, shaking his head. "Ah Nicole" he sighs, sitting down. "Nothing would please me more than to be able to get it out of her, but she won't tell me either. Who knows, maybe it's wedding blues. I mean, she is getting married next weekend. Maybe she's finally woken up and realised Lopez isn't the real man she was hoping he'd be." Nikki laughs and I glare at Jon. "Don't be stupid Ambrose" she says. "Colby is her life. She wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. He's the reason..." "Yeah yeah" Jon snaps. "He's the reason why she left Wales and flew halfway around the world to be with him. Heard it all so many times already Nikki. Here's the kicker. If she's that in love with the guy, why the fuck is she screwing me behind his back?" Nikki looks at me quickly as Jon gets up, kicks the chair, and storms out of catering. "You" she says, standing up and pulling me with her. "Locker room. Now."
I pause at the door as she checks the room is empty. "Get in here Chloe" she says softly, gauging my reaction. I burst into tears straight away. Her softly softly approach is something I don't deserve. "Stop being nice" I sob into her shoulder as she hugs me. "I'm a horrible person. I don't deserve nice." "No" she says, making me look at her. "You're a confused person who's making a big mistake. Ambrose..." "Jon isn't the mistake Nikki" I say. "Colby is. Jon, I'm in love with Jon." "No Chloe" she whispers. "You and Jon, it can't happen..." "It has happened" I say. "Multiple times. What he makes me feel, what he does to me, I don't get when I'm with Colby." "That's the thrill of getting caught, that's why" she says. "You're not meant to be with Jon. You and Colby, that's what's right." I shake my head. "No" I whisper. "Me and Colby, was a way of meeting Jon. I gotta go. I need to get out of this engagement. Tonight."
