Disclaimer: I only own Lucy Meyers in this story, Judas Mesias belongs to himself and the federation he wrestles for. This is for you Sharie, I hope you love it! :)

He walked in the locker room and sat down on the bench, picking up a towel to wipe the sweat off his face. It was nagging at him again, that feeling of anger and hurt after hearing the crowd booing him so loudly. Judas knew it was a part of the job, knew it came with the territory but some of them took it too far. Some people treated him rudely and cussed him out on the streets all because of a character he played in the ring. No one knew the real him nor did they ever care to take the time to even try to get to know him which was what upset him most of all.

His cell phone rang and he picked it up out of his bag, flipping it open. "Hello?"

"Hey baby." The soft, sweet voice of his girlfriend Lucy Meyers flooded the line and it instantly brought a smile to his face.

"Hey Lucy, I was just about to call you."

"What's wrong?"

Judas chuckled and shook his head, she could read him so easily. "Nothing babe, I'm fine."

"Yeah, want to try that again?" Lucy questioned, opening the locker room door and he jumped up in shock. "Surprise!" She giggled, squealing when he grabbed her up in his arms in a tight hug and twirled her around. "Okay Judas, I love you but you're making me dizzy."

He smiled shyly and sat her back down on her feet. "Sorry babe, I'm just so happy to see you…I thought you weren't getting in until tomorrow?"

"I wasn't but I called another airline and they had an earlier flight. Now, what's bothering you?" She asked, watching as the smile faded from his face and she sighed. "You're letting their reactions to you bother you again aren't you?"

"I know I shouldn't and I know it's extremely stupid but I can't seem to help it." Judas said, walking over and sitting back down on the bench with his back to her.

Lucy walked up behind him and began to massage his shoulders. "It's not stupid baby, them booing anyone constantly is bound to bother any sane person but you can't let it bother you. They're booing the evil character they see out there in the ring. If they were to see the wonderful man that I see back here everyday, the man that I'm completely in love with then I believe their feelings would change but not everyone can see that part of you."

Judas turned around and placed his hands on her hips, smiling up at her as she ran her fingers through his long hair. "You're right, I guess sometimes I just need to be reminded that the most important person in my life truly sees me for who I am."

"I've always seen the real you, even before we met I could see the real you shining through that tough exterior you try to keep up all the time and that's why I fell in love with you. No matter how hard you try to hide the person you really are, I can see him."

"As long as you can see the real me and you continue to love the real me then that's all that matters."

"Good to know." Lucy stated, leaning down to give him a kiss. "Now go get a shower so we can go home, I've missed you and I want to show you just how much."

"Yes ma'am." Judas growled, smiling evilly as he got up and quickly made his way to the shower causing Lucy to giggle.
