Chapter 3

A hotel room in Baltimore, MD 4:30 am

Simone's cell phone began to ring, she had left the ringer on incase Glen had decided to call her to let he know how Mark was doing. She looked at her phone and saw that it was indeed Glen that was calling her at 4:30 in the morning.

"Hey Glen, Is everything ok? How's Mark?" Simone was anxious to hear how Mark was doing.

"Hey Simone, he's not doing well at all actually." Glen wanted to be honest with his new friend, right now he needed someone to help him and someone to be there for him too.

"Oh my god Glen, what's wrong? What happened?" Simone feared the worst, she thought Mark was dead, he had killed himself.

"I found Mark, he is alive amazingly somehow, but he is hurting bad Simone really bad. I found him sitting in his own urine and feces, Michelle hurt really bad. He is so depressed Simone, I have never seen him like this I don't know what to do I'm scared, I'm afraid I'm going to lose my best friend." Glen was almost on the verge of tears, he loved Mark like a brother and was afraid that he was going to lose his closest friend he had ever had.

"Oh baby, don't worry you got to Mark just in time. We are not going to lose him I promise ok? I will on the first flight to Florida and I will help you take care of Mark. Now tell what hospital are you at so I can sit with Mark once I get there so you get some rest after I arrive." Simone knew Glen, she knew that he took Mark to the hospital to get checked out.

Glen gave her the information without a fight, right now he really needed a friend and someone to tell him that everything was going to be alright. Simone also knew that she was going to take control of cleaning up Mark's house while he was in the hospital. She wanted everything to be as normal as possible for Mark when he got released if he got released that is. Simone once again reassured Glen that everything was going to be okay that she would be there as soon as she could and would call him back to let him know when she would flying into Florida. She hung up with Glen and called the airport to find out when the soonest flight to Florida was, there was a 7:30 to Florida that was the soonest she could get. Luckily the flight was only five hours so she would be there by 2 pm to be by Glen and Mark's side and help them through this terrible time in their lives. Once she booked her flight she had to call Vince and let him know of the situation, he was not going to be happy about this but this was for family and family comes first in her book.

"This better be important if you are calling me at 5 am." Vince was very grumpy.

"I'm so sorry Vince but Glen needs my help taking care of Mark, he is in really bad shape boss please I need time off to help him." Simone pleaded with Vince to get time off to help Glen and Mark.

"How bad is bad?" Vince gave his full attention and became worried about his old time friend and number one superstar.

"Well Glen didn't tell me everything yet but he did tell me that Mark is alive and that he found him sitting in his own urine and feces. They are at the hospital now getting Mark checked out, Mark is really depressed boss, he needs our help please let me go help." Simone once again pleaded with her boss to get time off to help her friends.

"Alright no problem, take all the time you need to help Glen and Mark, and tell Glen that I changed my mind and to take all the time he needs. He will know what that means be safe Simone and if you guys need anything all you have to do is call ok?" Vince gave Simone and Glen his full support.

"I sure will Vince thank you so much Vince I really appreciate this. I promise when I am done helping Mark and Glen I will work my ass off for you I promise." Simone wanted her boos to know that she would her repay her boss for his kindness.

"Don't worry, I know you will and don't worry none of the other wrestlers will know about what is going on with Mark. As far as everyone is concerned he is on vacation and you guys are handling family issues and everyone else with just have to deal with that." Vince knew that was one of Simone's worries but he would make sure that was taken care and not have her worry about that.

"Thank you Vince, you're the best boss." Simone was happy that her boss was so understanding and caring of his wrestlers. With her worries somewhat relived she said goodbye to her boss and started packing her bag for Florida.

With her bag packed and ready to go it was time to head to the airport to catch her flight, Simone checked out of her hotel and got a taxi to the airport. Once at the airport Simone decided to call Glen and get an update on Mark's condition.

"Hey sweetie how you holding up there? How is Mark?" Simone wanted to make sure her boys where doing ok.

"I'm a little better, the doctors are running a bunch of blood work and tests on Mark. They are doing a full work up on him, plus they are giving a lot of shots too because of the way I found him. I will know the test results in a couple of hours but I'm really worried about Mark's mental health really. He is just sitting there, not really responding to all that is going on; it's like he has checked out mentally or something. I don't know how I can help him there, what are we going to do Simone?" Glen was worried about Mark's mental health more than his physical.

"He will be alright Glen, I'm sure we can find a doctor that will help us and show what to do in the mean time we will just love him and make him comfortable as much as possible. I got a flight to Florida, I will be boarding here in a few minutes I should be at the hospital around 2:30 or 2:45. Don't worry Glen everything is going to be alright please try not to worry ok, when I get there you will stay at a hotel till I get Mark's house cleaned up ok? And please don't argue with me on that you have had enough to deal with already I already know of a company that I can call to help me. So don't worry about that and I also called Vince too and he said for us to take all the time we need to help Mark get better." Simone reassured Glen that everything was going to be ok and that Mark was going to be fine.

"Wow, you did a lot in so little time you are an amazing woman Simone thank you." Glen was touched by how Simone had already done in such a short amount of time, he was glad to have her helping him.

Over the loud speaker Simone's flight was being called to board, the friends said goodbye and hung up with each other. Simone boarded the plane and sat back in her seat for the five hour plane ride to Florida, she decided to get some sleep to help her through what was going to be a long day.
