PLAN OF ACTION
Later that night
"So, what's the verdict?"
After looking up to see who had asked that question, an amused Matt waited until he had set the Tuna fish sandwich that he'd been eating, down on a plate, before replying: "Ding-ding-ding...we have a winner, folks."
"Mike just called and said that it is definitely Stephanie McMahon that Chris has been talking to these last few weeks. And I don't know about you two, but I can't wait to tell them."
While ignoring Matt and Jeff's small chuckles, Amy who had asked the previous question took a seat beside Matt at the hotel table; forcing Trish to take a seat next to Jeff across from her.
"I don't see what's so funny about the fact that they are talking to one another without knowing it."
"Me either," Trish commented, while rolling her eyes at the man beside her who was still wearing a look of amusement on his face-even though it was not that particularly funny to her. "I think it's kind of sweet. Romantic even."
Romantic?
Sobering up at this comment, Matt asked Trish how she thought Stephanie and Jericho talking to one another was romantic. "Up until recently they couldn't even stand one another-let alone, be in the same room with one another without trading insults...they hated each other."
As if he now had said something funny, Trish began to laugh-and then after realizing she was the only one who was doing so-she outwardly commented: "Didn't you guys ever have crushes on anyone back in elementary school...? You don't remember pulling the hair of the girl you liked or calling her names, even though you secretly thought she was kind of hot to begin with?"
While sharing a hell no look with Matt, Jeff replied: "That's stupid. Whenever I used to liked someone, even til this day, I was upfront with them about it. I just told them how I felt."
"And I'm sure if Chris felt anything for Stephanie, he'd tell her the same," Matt agreed; causing Trish to reply whatever to, and then afterwords-before she could even stop herself-continuing with: "Well, that's not what he told me."
A comment which caused not only Matt and Jeff to look at the blond in confusion, but also Amy as well-who knew when the other woman was keeping something from her.
And judging by the blush that is taking over her face right now, she is indeed doing so right now..
With that being her last thought, Amy outwardly replied: "Spill it;" causing Trish to stare at Amy for a second, and after noticing the seriousness expression on her face, she quickly began telling Amy what she knew.
"Okay, don't tell him I told you this, but...a couple of months ago, after Paul and Stephanie got engaged, Chris got drunk and kissed me-"
"He kissed you?"
Having forgot who was sitting beside her at the moment caused a now further blushing Trish to quickly reply: "Yes, but that's not the point...anyway, he kissed me and after I pulled away, he told me he was sorry and that he didn't mean it. He was just upset-and after probing him for details-he said it was because of Stephanie and Paul getting engaged. He said he had somehow fallen in love with the Princess, as he called her and now he knew he would never have a chance to be with her. I couldn't help but feel sorry for him after that-but again, don't tell him I told you guys that."
Are you serious?
In all the years that he knew Chris, Matt hadn't thought for one second that his friend had such strong-if any-feelings for their other friend. And this sentiment must have been shared with the group because Jeff's next words were:
"Are you sure he didn't just say that 'cause he was drunk..? 'Cause I've heard of people saying and doing things while drunk that they normally wouldn't do on any other occasion-like kissing their friends girlfriends, for instance-or so I've heard."
Now it was Jeff's turn to blush red-a fact which both Amy and Matt noticed; but decided against commenting on for the time being, anyways.
That's another conversation for another day...
"Wait, so have you two talked about it since that night when he was drunk?"
Without even thinking about it for a second, Trish nodded before saying that they indeed had. "I told him he should say something to her-especially now since Stephanie and Paul are no longer together. But we all know how stubborn Chris can be at times-so I don't see that happening anytime soon."
This is true...unless...
"What if there was someway we got Keith to tell Marie about it?"
With all eyes on him now, Matt began to tell the group his idea, that with everyone's help, would not only land Chris the girl of his dreams but Stephanie the guy of her dreams as well.
Next part soon
