" Y'all better get up and put some clothes on , because i'm fixing to come in and steal the bride ! " Savannah hollered from the other side of the door . Her tone filled with amusement .
" I'll ... i'll be there in a sec ... " Shandy said , trying her best to keep her tone upbeat and happy so her lifelong best friend wouldn't realize that anything was wrong . She heard Savvy giggle and say " To late , i warned y'all ! Ha ! Now who regrets givin me a spare key ? ! " As she let herself into the hotel room while Shandy quickly pulled the bathroom door shut and reached to turn on the shower as she called out . " I'm just gonna grab a quick shower and then i'll be ready to go ! " Not giving her bestie a chance to protest about them being late .
Shandy pulled the shower curtain open and winced as she quickly stepped inside beneath the hot spray of water . Steam quickly filled the room as she closed her eyes and tried to call back the hot tears that were curently streaming down her face . It was no use though ... because they kept coming . She tried to block out what she had seen and heard the previous evening as she quickly washed herself . Not wanting to linger to long on her less than slender figure that was the reason Jake had betrayed her so cruelly , just days before they were to be wed . Its funny , she would have thought that by this point there would be no tears left to cry . Its not like last night was the first time she had walked in on him with another woman . Nor was it like he hadn't spoken to her rudely and made cruel comments about her body . It was pretty much the normal in their relationship nowdays . Although with their wedding so close , she had hoped to start making strides to change that . In the past few months she had dropped two dress sizes and worked out in an effort to be more attractive to him and her body was firmer from all of her efforts . She was quite proud of herself and feeling more and more confident as the numbers on the scale went down . Thats why she had come back to their room early last night , wearing a sexy little bit of nothing she had received at her bridal shower , that showed off her best assets , in hopes of seducing him . In hindsight , their relationship had never been as perfect as she had tried to convinced herself it was . Of course she had been so young and naive at the start and he had played the part of prince charming so well , that she had missed all of the red flags . But things hadn't gotten this bad until a year ago when she had had a miscarriage . Something he wouldn't let her forget she had failed at .
He had used that against her last night , and she had been so hurt she had thrown the ring back at him and told him that this time , they were over for good . But sadly , he had once again reminded her that she wasn't strong enough to leave him , that she wouldn't risk humiliating herself or exposing secrets he had on someone she loved . And how if she broke her engagment this close to her wedding she would not only be the laughing stock of her small hometown in Georgia . But that he would release the proof he had on her loved one scandal , in order to hurt her .
After she had apologized for throwing the ring at him , he had proceeded to demand make up sex . Fresh hot tears began to fall , mixing in with the water from the shower as she buried her face in her hands and tried to stop the sound of her sobs that were wracking her body as she thought about how he had humilated her by throwing a blanket over her face as he pounded into her relentlessly . It had hurt her unprepared body but he didn't care that she wasn't getting any pleasure from it . He never did . She knew better than to complain though because then he would withhold sex and then use it as an excuse to cheat on her again .
She heard the bathroom door open and quickly whisked away her tears as Savannah's thick southerm accent filled the room . " Come on Shan ... We have a schedule to follow and we're gonna be late if you don't get a move on . " Shandy opened her mouth to assure her that she was almost done but all that came out was a broken hiccup which of course alerted her fiery best friend that something was very wrong . Before she could protest the curtain was being thrown open and Savannah's tone had turned serious as she asked " What did that rat bastard do now ? I swear to god if he laid a hand on you again ... " " No ... he didn't . He didn't hit me . I promise . " Savannah looked at her , examing her face for signs that she wasn't telling the truth . Finding nothing she sighed and said " Was he with someone else then ? " Shandy looked away , unable to lie to her best friend who after a lifetime of friendship could read her like a book . " Oh Shan ... I'm so sorry , sugar . I know you love him . But the man doesn't deserve you . He never did . Don't worry though ... there are plenty of good men out there and someday , you'll meet the man of your dreams that knows what he has and appreciates it . And don't worry about the wedding ... i'll make some phone calls and make it disappear . You don't have to worry about anything " " I'm not calling off the wedding Savvy . " Shandy corrected her before she could continue . Savannah pursed her lips and sighed as she said " Shan ... i know you love him , but sugar ... he isn't gonna change his spots . You have forgiven him so many times . And he keeps making the same mistakes and hurting you . " " I know ... But i love him and i know i can change and make him happy . I just need time to lose the rest of this weight and maybe get some liposuction or a nip and tuck to get rid of any loose skin . Things will be different then . He won't cheat because he'll have no reason to . "
" First , you are not fat and you never have been . You are curvy and beautiful . Trust me , a lot of men love a woman with curves . And second , Your weight isn't a reason for him to cheat now , sugar . There is no good reason for a man to cheat on the woman he supposedly wants to spend his life with . You're to good for him Shandy Rae . You've never been cruel to him , you have always respected him and remained a loyal loving partner to him . Even when he has hurt you . "
" Great you make me sound like a dog ... " Shandy scoffed playfully , trying to lighten the mood . It didn't work as she felt Savannah's slim arms wrap a towel around her and pull her into a hug . She heard Savvy sniffle as she said " You now thats not how i meant it . You know i love you . " " Yeah , i know . I love you too , Savvy . But its gonna be fine , you'll see . " Shandy tried . But Savvy shook her head and said " How can you say that ? " Shandy averted her eyes , unable to come up with an answer . " Please Shan ... don't marry that bastard . I ... i want you to be happy and be with someone who never purposely makes you cry . Someone who will love every single one of your curves and give you the same respect and loyaly you show them . " " That man doesn't exist . And even if by some miracle , he did , i couldn't be with him because in a week and a half , i'll be a happily married lady . " " Shandy ... " Savvy sighed , praying that her best friend would realize her own worth before she made the mistake of marrying the man . " " Please don't say that ... don't settle . "
" I'm not settling . I love Jake ... so much it hurts and i know we can get back to the way it was before everything started to fall apart . Now please ... if you love me and want me to be happy , let me get dressed right quick and we can get this celebration started . " " You sure you want to go through with the party ? I mean , we can cancel or postpone it if you want . " " And miss Wrestlemania and my bachelorette party extravaganza ? I don't think so . Now ... help me pick an outift would ya ? I've been waiting for this weekend my whole life . " She smiled . Savannah looked at her and sighed deeply . Resigning herself to the fact that nothing she could say or do at this point would change her mind . She just hoped that one day , Shandy would wake up and realize that Jake was no good for her . Hopefully within the next week . But for now , she had to try to respect her wishes and drop it . So she pasted on a smile and helped her find the perfect outifit before announcing .
" Hmm , i'm starting to rethink my outfit choice . So I'm gonna go grab something a little sexier than this to wear to Axxess . I got my eye on Jeff Hardy and with any luck , before the weekend is over , i'll get my mouth on his di ... " " Savannah Jo ! You can't say things like that about a married man ! " Savannah shrugged , looking unashamed as she said " I heard it through the grapevine that he got a divorce . So you know , if he wants to stick that juicy cock in my mouth and get a good tongue lashing , i'm down to get on my knees for the man . " Shandy shook her head and teased " You're such a trollop . " Savvy winked and said " I don't need no dolla to make me holla . This trollop just needs a dollop to pack a wollop " Shandy shook her head laughing and said " You have such a way with words , you're a regular Emily Dickinson " " Well thats one i've never heard before . " Savvy giggled . Shandy laughed too and said " Get outta here and go get your hussy gear on while i get started on my hair and put on my face . " Savannah smiled and said " Its good to hear you laugh . I'm gonna go change right quick and i'll be back in two shakes of a lambs tail . "
" Alright . " Shandy said as she watched her best friend make her way towards the door . She would never tell her friend that she was part of the reason she would never leave Jake . Not wanting to burden her friend with guilt or bring up painful memories that she never wanted to surface for her friend again . It was a sacrifice she was willing to make . They had been best friends , literally , their whole lives and always tried to protect the other . Shandy often felt like she had failed her though . Because she had been so wrapped up in Jake that she hadn't realized her friend was making bad decisions and getting herself in deeper and deeper into unhealthy situations that she quickly found she was in over her head with . Shandy had been so distraught that Jake had inadvertently found out and once again played the role of prince charming , making it all go away . Little did she know he would use the information against her to keep her where he wanted . Under his thumb . He didn't love her but he needed her . Or someone like her . Her family was well respected and came from old money . She had the pedigree he was looking for . And outwardly , fit the image he wanted to present to the world to advance his political status . If it were just her she really wouldn't care as much . But to protect her friend who had already been through so much ? No , as much as she wanted her freedom from him , it was to big of a risk to take . She loved her like a sister and told her everything , well almost everything . Savvy didn't know he was threatening to expose her nor did she even know he had evidence to do so . Keeping that secret in and of itself was so stressful . But she was to far in to confess now . Especially when nothing could be done . She couldn't risk losing her best friend . Cradle to grave . It was worth it .
Taking a deep breath she called her back " Savvy ? " " Yeah , whats up sugar ? Did you change your mind about the wedding ? " She asked hopefully . Shandy smiled and said " No , not at all . I just wanted to say thank you . You know ... for always being here for me when i need you . You're more than my best friend . You're the sister i always wanted but never got . And you're the best sister a girl could ever hope for . I love you . " " Aww ... i love you too . Cradle to grave . " She nodded at their lifelong vow . Savannah sighed and continued " Thats why , why i hope you change your mind , i just want you to be happy . You deserve a good man and a happy life with someone who makes you feel safe and loved and desired . " " So do you , Savannah . " Savannah gave a small smile , knowing exactly what her friend was saying without her having to say it . They shared a nod of understanding before Savannah excused herself and walked down the hall to her room to go change .
Avoiding the mirror as she changed into a cute little dress that showed off her tiny waistline and slender legs . Blissfully unaware that her own self loathing was the least of her worries .
" Come on ... we gotta get in line now ! " Savannah whined as she dragged Shandy across the venue to where the lines for autographs were set up . The group of friends had separated into smaller groups in order for all of them to meet their favorite wrestler . But as luck would have it Shandy and Savannah's favorites were sharing a space on that day . They finally arrived and got into the cue to wait for their autographs . Savannah turning to her and reaching over to adjust the veil clip she wore in her hair , that had come loose from their mad dash across the venue . Before brushing the sash that read ' Kiss the Bride ' , so that it lay smoothly across her friend's ample bosom . " Are you sure i have to wear this ? " Shandy whined , feeling self conscious about being the center of attention . But Savannah frowned and said " Yes , i'm sure . You're the bride and that won't change unless you call it off " Shandy sighed rolling her eyes at her friends suggestion , but relented . " Okay , okay ... You win . I'll wear the dumb veil and awful sash if it will make you happy . " " It does . Now , lets just zhoosh you up so all your best assets are on display . " She said , as she grabbed the hem of her top and gave it a hard tug , causing the scoop neck of her shirt to dip down lower , showing off an ample amount of cleavage . " Whoa ! To low , to low ! I'm spoken for , no need to draw unwanted attention . Besides , if Jake sees the picture he will hit the roof . " Shandy protested , tugging it back up a little . She watched the disapproving frown fall across her friends pixie like face and recognized the determined look in her clear blue eyes as she rested her tiny hand on her hip sassily and said " So he can stick his dick in any hole he wants and you can't let the girls peek out and say hello to your crush ? " Shandy tugged her shirt up a little more and annoyed now , huffed . " No , it really has nothin ' to do with Jake . I just don't like everyone to see my assets thank you very much . I'm a lady and i have every intention of behaving like one , no matter who is looking . "
Savvy rolled her eyes and said beneath her breath . " Fine . But don't be so uptight about behaving ladylike that you miss out on having fun . " She sighed and then in a calmer tone said " Look , i don't think Jake deserves you . But you've asked me to respect your choice and i'm gonna try to . But if you go through with the wedding , this is your last week of freedom . The last week you can flirt with boys and let your hair down without having a husband to answer to . I'm not telling you to go to bed with someone .. i'm just saying , flirt a little ... show a little of those incredible tits to someone who will appreciate them before they become a food source . " Shandy looked down and away , biting her lip as she thought about the cruel words her fiance said to her after she had had suffered a miscarriage .
' You know ... in hindsight , maybe this miscarriage was the best thing to ever happen . Your ass won't get any bigger and your tits won't get saggier . Not to mention you won't be loose down there . ' ' I thought ... i thought you wanted kids . We talked about starting a family after we were married . ' ' Well that was before you failed ... ' ' I didn't fail ! The doctor said it happens to a lot of women with their first pregnancy and that its nothing i did or didn't do . He didn't see anything to indicate that we would have trouble conceiving again though and didn't think i would have any issues carrying a baby to term . '
He had shrugged and yawned before continuing ' I know . But i think i've changed my mind . I mean , i have all the time in the world to have children . And if we're still together we could always adopt . Maybe a few brats from a third world country ... you know the press eats that shit up and it could help my political career . ' He had said thoughtfully .
She had been in tears at that point . She wasn't against adoption at all . In fact , she was open to it down the road . But ever since she was a little girl she had dreamed of carrying her own child one day . She wanted the whole experience of motherhood . The morning sickness , the cravings , the weight gain . And the incredible feeling of growing a miracle beneath your heart . She wanted to experience childbirth and dirty diapers and all the sleepless nights . If she couldn't have her own children for medical reasons , she would accept it as God's plan and find another way to experience motherhood . But she was young and healthy and until that moment , had envisioned creating a new life with the man she loved . Now , he was telling her he didn't want that when he had always promised her children before . Her picture perfect life was slowly slipping away from her and there was nothing she could do to call it back . And that hurt like hell . But aside from all the hurt she was angry ... more angry than she had ever once been on any of the numerous occasions she had discovered him with another woman in their bed . More angry then the time he had sold her diamond earrings her Daddy had given her on her sweet sixteenth , in order to have cash to give the seventeen year old girl he had knocked up , so she could have an abortion .
That had hurt her so deeply on so many levels . The fact that he was sleeping with an underage girl . The fact that he hadn't bothered with protection and had gotten someone other than her pregnant . And the fact that he was so eager to abort the child , just because it would inconvenience him without once giving a care about the child or its mother felt about it . She had almost left him then . But he had sworn to her that he didn't realize the girl was so young and that it only happened once just before they had gotten engaged . And that the girl was threatening to expose him if he didn't pay for the abortion and give her hush money in addition . ' I'm sorry sweetheart . I don't have any good excuses for doing what i did other than when i got my Granny's ring i freaked out and panicked and made a colossal mistake . ' He had sworn it would never happen again and to prove his love and commitment he had produced the antique ring from his pocket and dropped down on one knee . It was far from the way she had always envisioned she would get engaged . But when he told her he had already asked and gotten her fathers permission , she had weakened her resolve and accepted his proposal . Afterall , she loved him . Had been in love with him since middle school . He was her first kiss , and her first lover . Her only lover . Everyone in town expected them to get married one day and she was a good girl , always doing what was expected of her and behaving like a lady her Momma had spent so much time and money on etiquette classes and pageants , to become .
But in that moment , when he had tried to rob her of her greatest wish of motherhood , something inside of her snapped . She didn't know what had come over her , but before she knew it she had picked up the very expensive baseball bat signed by the entire roster of the '95 Atlanta Braves , that she had bought for him their first Christmas together , and marched outside to smash his even more expensive car , windows in . Before using a bobby pin to deflate all four of his tires . What followed was him calling her crazy and threatening to have her arrested and put into a mental ward . In hindsight she should have known he would never do it . The appearance of it would reflect badly upon him . But that was the first night he had beaten her until she blacked out . The first night he had ... forced himself on her . Of course he had made sure that all the bruises were centered in one area that would be easily hidden beneath her clothes and hair . And that was also the first time he had shown her the information he still had on Savvy that she thought he had destroyed , and threatened to expose her . Unbeknowst to him she had visited the emergency room a few towns over , the next morning after he had left for work , because she couldn't breath without being in tears and she was bleeding from where he had forced himself on her so violently . That was how she learned he had broken a few of her ribs . The doctors knew it was domestic violence but she refused to press chargers or tell them who did it . In her mind , the risks were to great to take . Because she knew he would ruin more than her life if she told . So she went home , and avoided him , hid the pain pills and hid the wrap around her ribs beneath her clothes until they healed . The bruises had faded in time , her ribs had healed , but the scars left on her psyche had yet to fully heal . Sure she put on a brave front , plastered a smile on her face and hid her pain from most of the world . But there was another reason , aside from the blackmail , that she was still planning on marrying him after how much he had hurt her . And it had more to do with how little he had made her feel than her love for him .
Savvy knew about him laying hands on her . But not to the full extent . She didn't know about the forced sex or the blackmail . Nobody did . Nobody ever would . And soon it wouldn't matter . She had made her choice to marry the man and nothing and nobody was going to dissuade her . She wouldn't be the laughing stock of her hometown and wouldn't embarrass or ruin her parents name , by calling off the wedding so close to the date . No , a little over a week from now , she would put on her Grandmomma's gown and veil and her Momma's pearls and walk down the aisle on her Daddy's arm in the little old church in the center of town and wed the man who might very well be the mayor some day , and in front of friends she had known her whole life , family and god himself vow to be a loyal and obedient wife until death do they part . She would wear his Great Granny's antique ring with pride and adopt as many babies as he wanted from anywhere he picked . And head up charity events for whatever cause he deemed would help his campaign . And all of it would be documented in their little local newspaper that had been in print for well over a hundred years . Good or bad , this was the life she had chosen for herself . And she had every intention of living it out until her dying breath .
" Helllooo ! Earth to Shandy ! Anyone home ? " she heard Savannah say from nearby , breaking through her memories as she waved a small hand in front of her face . " Umm , sorry . My mind must have been elsewhere . " " Well get your mind in the here and now . There are only a few people in front of us and i need to make sure you can't see my panty line . " Shandy chuckled as her friend turned , and smoothed her hands over her bottom . " So ? " " All good . You look beautiful . " Shandy assured her with a warm smile . " Good , now let me check you . " Shandy stood back and waited as her friend gave her the once over . " So , what do you think ? On a scale of beached whale to ogre , how bad is it ? " She laughed . Savannah shot her a dirty look and said " Not funny . " " Oh come on .. its a little funny . Besides if you can't make fun of yourself it hurts more when others do it . " " Well , Jake is a special brand of asshole . And apparently blind too . You're gorgeous , Shan . A smokeshow . You can do so much better than him . " " Savvy .. please . Lets not talk about this right now . Come on , we're supposed to be having fun . I don't want Jake to ruin this for us . " " You're right . He has ruined enough for you . Oh look , i see your man . "
Shandy looked up to the stage area where her favorite wrestler sat signing autographs and snapping pictures with fans . She felt her nipples harden just looking at the man in person . He was gorgeous on screen and in pictures . But now seeing him in the flesh she realized that pictures did not do him justice . He stood six three , with broad shoulders that widdled down to a tiny waist . His thighs were thick yet lean and as usual encased in worn denim that lovingly cupped his ass , showing it off to perfection . He wore black wrestling boots on his size thirteen feet and a simple white v neck covered his chest . A bit of chest hair peeked out from the V and she could hear the low whisky rough tone of his voice as he spoke to the little boy he was signing an autograph for . She absentmindedly lifted her hand to her chest playing with the thin chain that held a tiny rose gold peach charm , a gift from Savvy that she never took off , and tried to calm her rapid heartbeat as he smiled at the kid and chuckled at something he said . His dimples on full display , making him adorably boyish despite his beard and working man's appearance . He wore a hat , tilted a bit to the side with a few of his reddish blonde curls peeking out from beneath it , curling around his ears and his neck . The little boy moved on after getting his picture and he popped a red blow pop that she hadn't noticed before back into his mouth as he signed for the next person in line .
" Where is Jeff ? ! I can't see him ! Damn this world of tall people and their big heads that block everything ! " Savannah whined , hopping up and down on her sky high heels , trying to catch a glimpse and looking around people to try to see her guy . Shandy chuckled at her friends dilemma . Not that she was much taller but when you weren't even five foot tall every inch helped . Finally , with a soft chuckle that Savvy thankfully missed , the person in front of her shifted allowing her to see Jeff and in the process allowing Shandy to get a better look at Dean . She stared , entranced by him in a way that no man have ever caught her attention before . And everything slowed down and rushed up , at once . Her heart beating a mile a minute she could hear the blood rushing in her ears while everything , every noise and ever person around her faded into the background . It was intense and she half remembered thinking that she hoped to god she wasn't drooling . But then before she could wipe her mouth to check , she heard " Mercy , he is fucking hot ! " Savannah all but purred from her side , breaking the spell Shandy had fallen into looking at Dean Ambrose . She knew her friend wasn't referring to the object of her desire but rather the tatted man sitting beside him signing an autograph . But quickly wiped her mouth as Savvy said thoughtfully " I gotta taste that man before we leave Louisiana . I just don't know how the hell i'm gonna pull it off . " , licking her lips hungrily . Shandy shook her head and chuckled . Amused at her friend 's moxie . " I'm sure you'll come up with a foolproof plan . " She said . Wondering idly if this man could actually break through her friends carefully constructed walls she had built up to protect herself from being hurt . Before she could have time to say another word she realized they were next . And before she could protest , Savannah had shot her hand out and yanked her top down again exposing a good bit more cleavage than Shandy would have chosen to . But as Dean's blue eyes lifted to hers and darted back down and back up again , and a slow sexy smile spread across his face as his eyes twinkled with delight she resisted the urge to tug it back up and instead moved closer . " Hey whats your name , Darlin ? ' " He asked , his voice doing funny things to her insides and making her lose her train of thought . He smiled at her and reached for her hand " Its okay , sweetcheeks . I don't bite ... hard . " He teased . She was sure her eyes were as big as saucers as she finally managed to spit out her name . " Mmm , Shandy . Pretty name for a pretty lady . And there is nothing more refreshing on a hot summer day than a summer Shandy . " He smiled as she stood there trying to remember to breath . " Is it hot in here or is it just me ? " She chuckled nervously . Hoping that she didn't become a victim of boob sweat in front of this man who made her forget basic motor skills like breathing and speaking . He chuckled wickedly and said " Its definitely you . So Shandy ... where you from ? " He asked as he started to sign the picture . " Umm ... Geo ... Georgia . " " Well that explains that sexy little accent then . "
He winked . She heard Savannah giggle and lean forward to say something to a smiling Jeff Hardy . Before " Ready for a picture , beautiful Shandy ? "
She heard Dean say , interrupting her thoughts . " Umm yeah sure . " she nodded and he crooked his finger at her beckoning her behind the table . He stood up and reached for her hand , lifting it to his lips . " I'm Dean , By the way ." He leaned down and murmured in her ear . His hot breath fanning across her neck and into her ear . Sending shivers of pleasure throughout her body . He smelled so good . A mixture of cologne , leather and sunshine . In essence , he smelled like a man and she knew she could easily lose herself in him if she allowed herself to . The sensations only heightening when he pulled her into his arms , holding her against his chest as he hugged her . She closed her eyes and clung to him , resting her face on his chest . Her fingers curling into his shirt as he drew one down around his body until it smoothed over his ass cheek . Her eyes widened , and she pulled her hand away quickly . Not daring enough to leave her hand there too long on the infamous Ambooty which she realized from her brief contact , felt even better then it looked . He ran his own hands up and down her back , not going to far down but still feeling incredibly intimate as he murmured in her hair . " I had forgotten how good it feels to hold a real woman in my arms . " before lifting his head up and posing for the camera . He peered down into her eyes , and licked his lips as he studied her mouth . His thumb stroking over the bottom lip , as he cupped her face in his palm . He dipped his knees and before she realized what he was up to , he slid his arm under her knees and swept her up into his arms . She let out a surprised squeak and protested . " Put me down i'm to heavy , you'll hurt yourself ! " But wrapped her arms around his shoulders and neck , clutching him so he wouldn't drop her . He chuckled and said " Relax sweetcheeks , i'm not gonna drop you . I promise i lift way more than you on a daily basis . You're safe , trust me . " She relaxed a little , and smiled weakly as she tried to remember the last time she had been held like this or felt so safe in a man's arms . Probably not since she was a little girl and her Daddy carried her up to bed , after she had fallen out of the peach tree she and Savvy had been climbing in their Sunday dresses . She was vaguely aware of the camera flashing as the photographer took a few shots but when their eyes met and he leaned forward , she relalized he was about to kiss her . Panic rose inside of her along with a deep longing to feel this man's lips on hers . But before she could push him away or give in to his kiss , she heard a giggle from beside them and her eyes went to land on Savannah sitting on Jeff Hardy's lap as she whispered something in his ear that made his eyes go wide . She wiggled out of his arms and he sighed as he slowly sat her to her feet .
Dean looked over his shoulder at them and chuckled " Jeffery has his hands full . Your friend is a live wire . Want to sit on my lap for a picture , too ? " He asked , sitting down and patting his knee . " Umm , yeah she is . And no thats alright . I'm engaged to be married . " She blushed suddenly feeling very exposed as his eyes darted down to her chest again . " Oh , yeah ... i know . The whole sash and veil thing kind of gave it away . " he chuckled . " Yeah . " She said dumbly . Wishing that the ground would open up and swallow her whole .
" Well ... that a damn shame . You're beautiful . Your fiance is a lucky man , Shandy . I hope he knows that . " " Umm ... Thanks . Umm , thanks again for the autgraph and the pictures . " " You're very welcome . " He smiled , his eyes dancing with mirth . Distracting her " You going to mania ? " he asked . pulling her out of her daze . " Yeah , i am . This is actually my bachelorette party extravaganza . " She giggled .
He smiled at her as he said . " Well good . I hope you have fun and its good to know you'll be there to cheer me on . Maybe i'll see you there ? "
He asked in what she was sure was a hopeful tone . " Yeah , probably will . We have front row seats . Jake thinks wrestling is stupid but i love it ! I'm so excited ! " She gushed . He smirked a little and said " Sounds like Jake needs to loosen up and learn how to have fun . " She scoffed and mumbled
' Oh he has his fun . He just prefers his fun to involve half naked women who aren't me , instead of sweaty men who look better than him . " She giggled , automatically covering her mouth when she realized how she must have sounded . " What was that ? " Dean asked . She shook her head and said " Nothing important . Thanks again for everything . Come on Savvy ... we gotta go . " She said , pulling her friend off of Jeff's lap despite her protests . Dean chuckled and with a devilish smile purred " You haven't gotten everything yet , Sweetcheeks But you're always welcome to everything whenever you're ready . Besides , i didn't get to kiss the bride yet . "
Shandy blinked in disbelief . He was flirting with her . She was flattered for sure . But she was also engaged to be married to another man . It didn't matter that her fiance never made her heart race a hundred miles a minute or that he couldn't lift her as if she weighed nothing , and that he never made her panties soaking wet like a few minutes in Dean's presence had .
Jake was the man she had chosen to spend the rest of her life with . And she saw no reason to throw away her future for a few hours of physical pleasure . No matter how good the sex would likely be . She glanced back at the table to see Jeff and Dean leaning towards each other in conversation . Huge smiles plastered on both of their faces . Dean lifted his eyes to hers as if he felt her eyes on him and winked at her , giving her a slow smile as he lifted the lollipop up to his mouth and licked it before drawing it into his mouth . Sucking it hard before pulling it out again with a loud pop as his eyes dipped to her breasts . Her nipples poking obscenely through the lace bra she wore beneath the thin white tee shirt . She swallowed hard and pulled her top up a few inches at the neckline . Forcing herself to turn away before she did something stupid like go slip him her number . Pulling Savannah along behind her as she said " I need to use the ladies room before we get in line to pick up our pictures , and you're coming with me . " " Fine by me . I should really put my spare pair on anyway before someone realizes i'm not wearing any panties . " She giggled . " Wait ... what ? You were wearing them earlier when we left the hotel , you made me check to see if the line was showing . Where are they now ? " She asked , already dreading the answer as her friend started to laugh and blush . Biting her lip as she said " They may or may not be in a certain man by the name of Jeff Hardy's pocket . " Shandy felt her jaw drop and she abruptly snapped it shut when Savannah giggled . And without another word , Shandy was pulling her through the sea of people towards the ladies room . Wondering what else her friend might have slipped in his pocket when she was distracted talking to Dean .
