As I sit down in the chair, John does the same.
"Listen, I can look in your eyes and see you love this business. So, let me ask you a question." He said stopping long enough for me to reply.
"Sure, anything at all" I said sort of nervously.
"What do you say about wrestling me tonight in the main event? It'll be a way for you to get the crowd behind you since I've got so much heat on me". He said with a little smirk.
"Well, I would be honored to but what about Dusty? What does he think?"
"It was his idea…" John replied with a little laugh.
"Alright, I guess we'll work the main event then."
We sat and cut the breeze for a few minutes until he needed something to eat. As he was walking out he stopped and looked at me and started talking again.
"By the way, don't ever look at my girl like you did ever again." He said rudely
"Your girl?" I asked with a confused expression.
"Melina." He said walking out.
As he left my heart sank as I have had a crush on Melina ever since I saw her in the WWE on TV. I decided to get my mind off it and get my gear on for tonight's show when the door opened.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't think anyone was in here."
"It's okay I was just leav-" I said finally lifting my head seeing Melina in the door way.
"Do you mind if I stay in here until my match"? She said in the sweetest way.
"Um, no I don't mind but your boyfriend might." I replied jokingly
"Boyfriend?!" She yelled.
"Yeah, John said you two were an item or whatever" I said pretty shocked.
"Ha-ha, the nerve of that guy. He's been trying to get with me ever since we debuted together. All these wild internet reports of us dating went to his head." She said laughing.
Before I could reply the door was opening when Dusty stuck his head in telling Melina she was next. She stood up and brushed her hand through my hair and told me she would see me later. After she left I heard a voice behind me.
"Damn! How come all these white boys get all the hotties?" Kofi Kingston said laughing.
I stood up from the chair and turned to Kofi
"Can you answer a question for me?"
"I'll try" he replied.
"Are my pants wet?" I said in a joking tone but dead serious.
"Um, I don't think so. I guess we've got that in common – she makes me 'bout wiz on myself to. You might want to finish getting read since you're after Melina's match."
"Alright, thanks man."
thud I hit the mat after 15 minutes in the ring with John Morrison only to have him hit a corkscrew moon Sault on me for the pin. Morrison leaves and I pull myself to the ring apron only to realize Morrison possibly broke my nose. Dusty comes from the back with the medical team making sure I'm okay. I hop down off the apron only to have Dusty whisper something in my ear which I couldn't make out. We get to the back and they get me some ice for my nose only to hear Morrison's mouth running.
"Did you see that? I broke that piece of shit's nose. See, that's what happens when you miss with my bitch."
"For the last time I'm not your girl and I never will be." Melina screamed at John.
"Also, John. I'm not a piece of shit – you're just a shitty worker."
"Alright hold up. There's no room for this stuff today. Let your emotions cool down after a beer or something."
"Dusty, I'm only 18. I can't drink" I said laughing but in pain.
"Oh, that's right. I forgot Matthew. Ha-ha. Then go get you a nice slushy or something".
"Can I stick my nose in it?" I said joking which made the whole room bust out laughing.
"See John, if you had a sense of humor like that I might date you" Melina said laughing.
I finally get all my gear off and in my bag and throw it on my shoulder and walk out the door with Dusty who's giving me a lift back to my apartment a few miles down the road. As I walk out the door I notice Melina walking down the road to her apartment which is down the street.
"Hey Dusty, I think I feel like walking tonight."
"Why?" Dusty said before looking down the road then reply with a laugh.
"Fine, go get you some."
"Whoa, did you just tell me to go "get some"? I said with a smart ass tone.
"Uh, yeah." Dusty replied..
"Awkward" we both said laughing then shaking hands.
I go running down the steps to catch up with Melina. I finally catch up with her only to find her on her cell phone.
"Yeah mom. I'll call you back."
I could hear her mom asking why through the phone.
"I just will. I'll tell you later. Okay?"
She hung up the phone and smiles at me.
"You feel like grabbing a bite?" She asked.
"Wait, you know how to cook?" I said joking.
Melina stopped dead in her tracks with a "Not this crap" look on her face.
"Please, don't tell me you're one of those "The woman has to cook" guys" She replied with a pissed off look.
"Whoa, no I was just joking."
Melina then laughed and pushed me only to make me about lose my balance and fall.
"Well, this is it." She said with a little dis-appointment behind her voice.
"Oh, that didn't take to long. Well, I guess I'll see you next week."
'Well, I mean I don't have any movies or nothing but you can come in if you want…"
The first thing that popped into my mind was CHING! I replied with "I guess I can come in for a few minutes." We walked into her elevator to go to her apartment – and those few minutes turned into well –
