Mark saw the confused and scared look on AJ's face, and thought he should explain.

" Look, that women you talked to was Jena, and Jena is NOT my girlfriend. She thinks she is, and she tells everyone we are still together, but I broke up with her a few weeks ago, she just can't get over the fact that someone dumbed her." Mark said in disgust.

" Oh." Was all AJ could say, feel she now felt completly stupid for the way she had acted towards Mark. She couldn't the feeling of relieve and happiness that washed over her. He was single!

" Well Why don't we stop and get some diner, so we can catch up?" AJ asked after a few minutes.

" Could you hear my stomache from over there? Mark asked flashing her a smile.

"Is there any speacial place you would like to go?" Mark asked

" Ummm I'm in the mood for Italian, do you know any place we could go?"

" Yeah."

20 minutes later, they pulled up into the parking lot of Mark's favorite resturant. Mark could help but to feel a little nervous, he still couldn't get over the fact that she was here with him. Mark laughed at himself, a little old to get butterflies aren't you Mark?

AJ smiled as Mark opened her door, some people never change she thought, remembering what a gentleman Mark had always been. They walked in and sat at a table in the back of the resturant. She couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face as she looked over at Mark. So many times she had dreamed of this day, the day when they would be together again. She thought back to all the night she had cried her eyes out praying to be here with him, and now after so many years, here he was. She justed hoped she never had to go through the heart break of loosing him again.

After ordering their food, AJ looks at Mark and breaks the uncofortable silience between them.

" So professional wrestling huh? What ever happend to your dream of being a pro basketball player?" She asked in wondering what made Mark change his mind.
Mark chuckled thinking of all the times he had told AJ he was gonna play for the NBA.

" Ya know, i was on my way to playing pro ball, but some how i just couldn't pass up the chance to beat the crap out of people and then get paid for it." Mark replied with a rare smile. Then out of no where AJ started into a fit of laughter.

" What ?"

" Did you ever get to meet Hulk Hogan?" AJ asked starting to laugh harder once she saw the look Mark gave her.

" Unofortunatley yes." Mark said with a frown.

They talked their way through dinner, and the ride back to AJ's house.

" This one?" Mark asked coming up to a street.

" Yeah, make a right." They soon pulled up to the drive way, and Mark got out to open AJ's door.

" I really enjoyed seeing you again." Mark said as they got to the front door.

" So did I."

" Well i don't leave town for another week, would you like to join me for breakfast tomorrow?" Mark asked hoping she wanted to see him again.

" That would be great, why don't you pick me up at 10:00 tomorrow?"

" Ok, that sounds good." Mark replied, he took a step forward, all he could think about was AJ's soft lips, lips he dreamed of so many times, he just couldn't help himself as he brought them down to hers in an electrifying kiss.
After a few minutes AJ pulled back for some much needed air. Damn the man still knew how to kiss. She smiled as she looked up into his now dark green eyes.

" I'll see you tomorrow." She said not really wanting the night to end.

" Ok, sweet dreams darlin."

AJ walked into the house and leaned against the door, just maybe...
