Angela View
It was August 30, 1999 and I was supposed to make my debut tonight during Chris' promo about The Rock. I never told him about me coming to the WWF. I had my gear on and I was waiting by the curtain with a mic. The technical person cued my countdown clock. Once that got to zero the lights went down and pyro went off with my music. I stepped onto the stage and mocked Chris' entrance he made last week.

Who was that coming down to the ring? I saw her step into the ring and look at me. Her music stopped and she spoke into her mic, "Jericho, you look like you've seen a ghost." That voice, it was her, my best friend Angela. I was speechless at the sight of her being here.
I actually was in love with Angela before I left Winnipeg, but I never told her because I didn't know if she felt the same way. "Chris, cat got your tongue?" she asked coming closer to me. I didn't say anything and she dropped her mic and left the ring. I dropped my mic and left the ring and followed her to the back.

I was walking around backstage until I felt someone grab my arm. I turned and came face to face with my childhood best friend Chris, "What are you doing here Angela?" he asked. "I always wanted to be here." I said. He smiled and hugged me, "I missed you Chris." I said. He let me go, "I need to talk to you about something, privately." he said and took my hand. He lead me to an empty locker room.
I sat on the bench, "I have to tell you something that I been keeping from you for a while." Chris said sitting down next to me." I do to." I said looking at him. "Let me go first." Chris said and took me hands and held them. "The truth is….I'm in love with you. I have been in love with you for a while now." he said. I felt tears start to form and fall from my face. He did feel the same way. I've been in love with him for a long time. "That is what I had to tell you too Chris." I said and saw him smile. He stood up and help me up. He held me close to him and it felt weird, but right, "I love you Angela." he said. I looked up at him, "I love you too Chris." I said.
Chris let me go and held my hand. We left the empty locker room and sat on the production crates, "I missed you too." Chris said. I looked up at him, "Really? I asked. He nodded, "When I left Winnipeg, I thought about how your face looked when I told you about me leaving. How upset you were with me." he said. "I locked myself in my room, in the dark, and cried for a week." I said. "Knowing that my best friend was gone and I was never going to see him again." I said and got up, but Chris grabbed my arm.
I sat back down and saw in his eyes that he wanted me to stay, "Will you be my girlfriend?" he asked. I nodded and he smiled taking my hand. He leaned in and kissed me lightly, "I've been waiting to do that to you for a very long time." he said. I smiled and kissed him lightly, "Me too." I said sitting closer to him. He smiled, "About time eh?" he asked laughing. I laughed, "I missed your laugh." he said. "I missed yours too Mr. Best In the World." I said. "I stuck with that because you told me that." he said. "Aww…." I said grabbing his muscular arm.
"Oh wow, you've been working out." I said. "All part of being a wrestler Angel Cake." he said using the nickname he gave me a long time ago. "I'm still surprised you remember my nickname after all these years Chrisy." I said using the nickname I gave him a long time ago. "I should say the same thing to you." Chris said.
About an hour and a half later I was in Chris' hotel room, in the bathroom, getting ready for bed. I came out of the bathroom in an Aerosmith t-shirt and black sweat pants and heard Chris talking to himself while pacing in the bedroom. He stopped once he saw me and smiled at me. I walked over to him, "Still the same old Christopher Keith Irvine I've grown up with, except the long blonde hair." I said and started playing with his hair. "You're still the same Angela Rose Holly, except all grown up." he said. "And now with you." I said. "Mhm… who would of thought that my best friend would be standing right in front of me as my girlfriend." he said. "That's because you're a sexy beast." I said as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "And I'm all yours." he said. I looked up at him and he tucked my blonde hair back behind my ear. I blushed and looked away. Chris lifted my chin and kissed me deeply. I kissed him back. It felt weird to be kissing my best friend, but I've had a crush on my best friend for a long time.
I pulled away a few minutes later and sat on the bed, "What's wrong?" Chris asked sitting next to me. "I'm sorry, it's just…. I've known you since we were ten and it felt weird kissing you." I said. He didn't say anything and I stood up and started to cry, "You hate me Chris." I said among my tears.
I heard Chris stand, "Angel Cake, I'm not mad at you and I don't hate you. I understand how you feel. If it'll help we'll go slow to not make it feel so awkward." he said turning me around and held me. I shook my head, " I don't want to mess this up Chrisy." I said. "Don't worry, we'll work together to make this work." Chris said. I started calming down and smiled up at him. He wiped my tears and kissed me lightly. I jumped a little, "Sorry sweetie." he said. I shook my head, "Don't be. I actually like kissing you." I said. He laughed, "I do too." he said and let me go. He turned, but I grabbed his arm. He turned and I kissed him deeply. I felt him kiss me back with passion.
