Candy Coated Affection
Chapter Four: Nothing to Worry About
The following morning, Candice awoke to find Jeff getting changed. "Sorry babe," he told her, "but I need to get down to the arena and get some stuff sorted out." Candice let out a little sigh, but she understood; business was business. "Your tickets to fly home are on the table next to you, and hopefully I'll get to see you soon!" he told her, with a smile. She watched him quickly grab his backpack and head out the door, giving her a wink before he closed the door. She couldn't resist blushing; she loved when he did that.
The next time Candice and Jeff saw each other was at The Great American Bash Pay-Per-View. While sitting on a leather couch backstage watching the show, Candice rested her head on Jeff's shoulder, and he put his arm around her neck. "You want to go out later tonight?" he asks her, and she quickly nods her head. Overhearing the couple, Vince McMahon walks by them, and stops. He clears his throat and looks at the couple sitting on the couch. "Jeff, could I have a word with you?" asks Vince, in his typical stern voice. "Sure," replies Jeff, who takes his arm away from around Candice's neck and gets up. "I'll be back soon," he reassures her, and follows Vince down the corridor.
Several minutes later, when Jeff finally returned, he sat down on the couch across from where Candice was sitting. She looked at him, startled. "Jeff, what's wrong?" she asked him, while standing up and moving over to where he was sitting. "Look, Candice… we need to talk. Can we get out of here and head over to my room at the hotel?" Unsure of what was going on, Candice nodded her head and followed Jeff, in silence, to his rental car.
"He told me to keep our relationship professional, and there would be consequences if we didn't". Candice couldn't believe what she was hearing! What did Vince McMahon have to do with her personal life and why was he getting involved in something that wasn't his business? "But, our relationship is professional, isn't it…?" Just then, Jeff moved his hand and placed it over hers. She looked into his deep, dark eyes and smiled. It was finally happening, her and Jeff. "Well, we just don't have to tell Vince; or anyone else, for that matter. But I'm willing to make this work, if you are." Candice had no words to express how she felt. Instead, she moved her face close to Jeff's, and kissed him passionately on the lips.
The next thing Candice knew, they were lying on Jeff's bed, slowly undressing each other. As Jeff removed her shirt, she looked at him, and he gave her a wink and she blushed. This was exactly what she wanted, and she wouldn't have it any other way.
