"How do you met Mark?" Glen asked, grabbing a bite of his sandwich.
"Some friend of mine introduce me to him. That's when our friendship starting to grow."
"A friend of yours know Mark personally?"
Erin nodded, "He worked here before. And he told me that him and Mark are good friends."
"What happened to him?"
"He can't take the whole travelling thing. Can't stay away from his family much."
Glen nodded, "You're not hungry?"
"Not really."
"Come on now. Eat something alright," Glen stood up and went towards the table which consist of foods and drinks. He took one chocolate muffin and a mineral water bottle and walked back towards his place. He sat down and placed it infront of Erin.
Erin smiled, taking a small bite of the muffin, "Thanks."
"Knew that you're hungry," he grinned before finishing off his sandwich.
"We just met and you knew me that well huh?"
Glen took a sip of his own mineral water before answering, "Yep. Amazing isn't it?" he said cockily.
Erin finished off her muffin and soon, they were walking down the ramp to the ring where Mark is warming up. Both leaning on the barricade and watched Mark warming with Big Show.
Mark took a hard bump when the Big Show accidentally hit the chokeslam hard. Mark winced, his hip is hurting him.
"Shit! Sorry Mark, you alright?" Big Show asked, crouching beside him.
"Yeah.." he groaned when he tried to sit up.
"Easy there Mark," Erin said, helping Mark sit up. She came to his aid as soon as the incident happened.
Mark sat up finally, leaning on the ropes. He sighed, and closed his eyes while resting his hand on his hip.
"Let's get you to the trainer." Erin stats.
Mark shook his head slowly, " I'll be fine,"
Erin frowned, "You won't be fine unless you went to the trainers and let them check on you,"
"Yeah man. Let them check on you before it get worse. Your hip has been bothering you lately anyway." Glen spoke up.
"Fine," Mark muttered.
With the help from Glen and Big Show, Mark managed to arrive at the trainers room. Mark knocked and let himself in, sitting on the bench while the others wait for him outside.
"What do we have here?" Johnson asked, seeing the looked of pain on Mark.
"Hip," Mark simply answered. Johnson had been attending Mark's injuries for years now. And he knows that the hip has been bothering Mark this past years. He needed a hip replacement to feel much better but Mark doesn't want to do it, yet. He'll do it once he's done with wrestling.
Johnson without any other word, went and do his work. Mark was closing his eyes all the while. He snapped open his eyes when he heard a door closed. It was Erin, holding her previous mineral water bottle.
"Still hurting?" Erin asked concernly.
Mark smiled slightly, "I'll be fine."
Erin handed her mineral water bottle to Mark. When Mark just arched his eyebrow, she shoved it to his chest. "You must be thirsty after the warm up,"
Mark stared at the bottle which is now him holding it. He turned the cap and took a sip. His throat no longer dry, "Thanks."
Erin smiled in return. Once Larry's done, Mark stood up up slowly and making his way towards the door with Erin leading ahead. Big Show is the first one to speak up, "Hey, sorry man about that."
Mark smiled slightly, "It's alright. Just be careful about my hips tonight. Don't go hurting it more than it already is."
"Alright, I'll be careful. See you later Mark. Bye!" and off he went towards his locker room.
Glen who had been quiet the whole time, spoke up "Wanna hang out after the show?"
"Depends. If I'm not hurt, I'll go," Mark answered, and starting to walk back towards his locker room slowly, knowing that both of them following behind him.
Glen nodded, "How about you Erin?"
"Maybe..." she wanted to be there for Mark if he's hurting. She care for him and he is her best friend.
"What? Are you hurting too?" Glen teased, grinning.
Erin were about to reply when Mark Henry spoke "Hey Glen, wanna warm up for tonight?"
Glen turned around but continue walking, "Yeah. I'll see you in a minute." He went back to talk to Erin and Mark, "So, I'll see you guys tonight, or later." Glen then turned to a corner, went inside his locker room and began changing to his wrestling attire.
Both Erin and Mark were quiet as they made their way towards Mark locker room. Mark immediately sat on the couch once they've reached, while Erin close the door before sitting beside him.
"Go out. Tonight. With Glen. Don't worry about me." Mark said, closing his eyes.
"But you're hurting..."
"I'll be fine." Mark interrupted rather rudely.
Erin looked down. She doesn't like being on Mark's bad side.
Mark sighed, and looked down at Erin. He sighed softly and took her hand with his. Erin looks up and stares at Mark emerald green eyes, "Look. I'm sorry, but I want you to have fun. I invited you to come along with me so that you can enjoy yourself. Just go out and have fun alright. I'll be fine, I promised." He crossed his finger and rest it on where his heart is.
Erin smiled slightly and did the same. Guess it didn't hurt to have some fun and Mark's a big boy. He sure can take care of himself.
