It was 8 o'clock and John pulled open his locker room door he finally decided he could face Nancy, he'd built up enough courage to do so. He stepped out the door putting his bag on his shoulder and closed the door behind him before starting to walk down the corridor.

"what you still doing here?" he heard someone mumble from up ahead

he looked up and mickie was sat on a crate with her bag one leg hanging over the edge and one bent up not far in front of him "could say the same for you" he said softly relaxing his tense shoulders

"yeah, not everyone has someone waiting for them do they" mickie said with a flick of her eyebrows before turning her head away from john

"mickie i" John said softly "i never meant that horribly, I was just joking"

"yeah well, different for you isn't it"

"what's different"

"you can have kids, doubt ill ever have any"

"doubt ill have kids"

"yeah ok" mickie could imagine it now John junior in all the designer track suits and Nancy junior dressed in prada with a little purse and make up

"seriously ill be doing the world a favour by not letting Nancy breed"

mickie chuckled "breed? She's not an animal"

"im being serious, it should be illegal to breed with her"

"abit harsh since your gonna marry her" mickie said

"yeah, well be thank full, your not the one that has to marry her"

"you don't have to marry anyone" mickie said turning her head to John, mickie gasped "do your family do arranged marriages" mickie sat up "are you not allowed sex before marriage oh my god are you a virgin"

"well I would answer if you stopped talking"

"my bad" mickie mumbled sitting back

"my family don't do arranged marriages I am allowed to have sex and I do"

"not for awhile though huh?" mickie said with a smirk

"could say the same for you" John said matching her smirk

"well played" she mumbled

"thank you" John said proudly

"yanno I don't get your relationship with Nancy"

"what don't you get?"

"your engaged to get married but you don't have sex and when I see you together you never seem to talk to each other"

John sighed

"do you even love her? I'm being serious now like seriously love her like risk your life for this women love"

John sighed "i don't even like her most of the time"

"ok now im really confused"

"i only showed interest in her so her dad would invest in my dads business and keep it a float and it all got out of hand"

mickie looked at John "does your dad know?"

"joking right it was his idea"

"he shouldn't ask you to do that"

John shrugged "i don't mind, I love him, id do anything to make him happy"

"even if that involves making yourself miserable and missing out on a real relationship where the women will actually appreciate what you do for them"

"even if it means forgoing that"

mickie stood up off the crate grabbing her bag "just lost a whole lot of respect for you" she said before starting to walk away

"what why?" John said shooting up

"i get your trying to make your father happy but your happiness should make him happy not you bringing him some money, I would of thought with all the morals and things you stand for you'd understand that"

"i do understand it but it's my dad mickie"

"yeah but this is your life John, if you found out some man was using your daughter for the same reasons im sure you'd have something to say about it, I bet you would have a problem with it, he's using you and you cant even see it, wanna open your eyes, he's using you, your using her and she's just there loving the fact she's set to marry a rich celebrity, your an idiot if you actually think she cares about you" mickie grabbed her bag and started walking away
