Joe and Jon finished up their conversation as they turned into catering. He felt so wrong lying to himself, he knew he didn't just want sex from this woman. He could potentially want more, something personal with her. Yet he knew his friends and family would laugh at him. He was so hurt from the last woman. He attempted to start a family with that woman, he gave his everything to her. Had a baby girl with her, yet he ended up looking soft and vulnerable in the end. She played him, and he KNEW he couldn't allow himself to become a sissy with this woman.
So he would try to keep himself from falling for her so hard. He wouldn't allow his peers to see him that way.
While she cleaned herself up, and got herself together. She made a phone call to AJ, she told her everything she heard. AJ felt terrible for putting her into that position. She knew how badly Lyss wanted to feel loved. How badly her best friend didn't want to be afraid.
Her blood absolutely boiled at that point. She knew she was gonna tear into both of those men, they WOULD feel her wrath. She didn't care who's feelings she hurt at this point. She warned them once before, now they will know how serious she was.
Lyssa made her way to catering, as if nothing happened. All smiles, she looked over and saw Joe flagging her down. She bit down on her lip, to keep herself from saying something that could prematurely end her career. She smiled and sat down next to him.
Joe grinned and started conversation with her. "So, this is it. Our story line starts tonight. We start traveling together tonight. Life's good, right?" He smiled down at the small, petite woman.
"Yup, I guess." Was all she could manage out of her mouth. Giving him a short answer.
His smile quickly turned into a frown. "Hey, you okay? You're not the normal, bubbly little Lyss I've come to know." He said, a bit worried that she was having second thoughts on tonight.
"Yup, I'm great." She said rolling her eyes. Then she went straight into lying. "I'm just tired. Maybe I need to go nap." She said as she quickly stood up. "See you tonight" She said as she walked away.
"Well, that was awkward. What the fuck crawled up her ass?" Jon asked.
"I don't know, but I hope it changes when it's show time. The last thing we need is to have a fucked up start to this ordeal." Joe said, a bit angry that she left on the note she did.
"Well, whatever it is, she needs to shake it off. Anyway I'm gonna go up to the room for a post show drink, you in?" Jon asked clapping his hands loudly, as if he was cheering himself on.
"Yeah, I guess I could use one myself." Joe said with a fake smile. He was really concerning himself about that woman. What was the problem. She seemed so excited the past few days..
As the men made it up to the room, they turned the corner and saw AJ leaning up against the door.
"Well, Heyyyy there girly. What brings you here today?" Jon said in a joking matter, as he unlocked the door.
Aj made her way through the door, scowling at both of the men. She said nothing to either of them. She wanted to wait until the door was shut, so that nobody heard her screaming at them.
"So, are you gonna talk or just stair at us?" Joe asked noticing Aj wasn't to happy.
"You son of a fucking bitches!" AJ screamed, earning a look from both men. "So it's all about sex huh Joe? After I fucking told you both that I'd make your life hell if you hurt her! Joe, She's not just someone you can fuck and drop! She's been through hell! She fucking HEARD you talking about her earlier! She cried her eyes out for an hour! She fucking wanted to trust you!" Aj Screamed at them. "What fucking possessed you to talk about that publicly, where anyone could hear you!
Joe mentally beat himself up, he never ever meant for her to hear that. He didn't even mean it.
"A, I can expla-" he tried to say before Aj screamed again
"No, fuck off Joe, you of all people should know how it feels to be hurt! I don't wanna hear anything. If you fucking touch her, I'll cut your dick off and feed it to you! That's a promise!" Aj stated as she stormed out, and slammed the door behind her.
Joe has never felt more embarrassed in his life. He felt so low.
"Well, that was different." Jon said with a small chuckle.
"Dude, it's not funny. Everything she said was right. That conversation shouldn't have even been said out loud. I honestly think I'm gonna go to my room. I don't need to deal with this right now.. Enjoy your drinks Uce." Joe said, as he made his way to the door.
