I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
A/N: I KNOW THAT THIS CHAPTER IS KIND OF SHORT, I HAVE MORE CHAPTER ON DECK READY TO POST BUT MIGHT POST LATER THIS WEEK WHILST I GET A LITTLE BIT CAUGHT UP AND AHEAD WITHIN THIS STORY. I GOT A NEW JOB OF SORTS SO I AM HOPING MAYBE I CAN GET MORE FREE TIME TO SPEND TOWARDS WRITING.
A Week Later-
I sat in Jeff's dining room sealing the brown envelopes that had contained a DVD along with a single white paper with some bull shit resume that Jeff helped me come up with and if I ever get a job off of that resume I would be personally impressed because we were pulling things out of our butts to fill the page.
"So…I know you are going to hate me for this April but I kind of have a surprise for you." Jeff said as he walked down the hallway with something obviously hiding behind his back.
"What'd you do Jeff? Am I going to have to murder you in your sleep?" I asked looking at him with a stone cold face trying to figure out what he was hiding from me.
"You might but I'll make sure to lock my door at night." Jeff said as he smiled as he slowly pulled a hanger from behind his back that had what I presumed a ring attire on it. "Ta-da! Consider this your new ring attire for the current time, I hope you like it and figured it'll be better than basketball shorts and a tank top." Jeff said as I slowly stood up pushing the chair I was sitting in back with my knees.
"Jeff…you shouldn't have because I know how much these things cost…" I said as I walked closer grabbing the material between my fingers seeing how soft it was. It was a beautiful purple with silver and it most definitely was the attire that I would kill to have and had every attribute I loved and wanted in my ring attire.
"Consider this a present…"
"A present? For what?"
"A congratulations present for booking your first show." Jeff said as I looked up into his green eyes.
"Jeff, I can't accept this…this is too much for just a congratulations present…plus you have already done so much for me." I said as I stepped back some removing my hands from the fabric not wanting to because it was so nice and something I would love to have but forcing myself not to have.
"Well, you better accept it because I sure as hell can't fit this…" Jeff said as he held it up to his body as I tried to hold back a chuckle.
"Well there is always Heather, I'm sure she will jump at the chance to receive this from you." I stated not realizing it had slipped as I turned around going back to my seat to resume what I was doing.
"What do you mean by that?" Jeff asked curiously as I shook my head.
"Nothing…it meant nothing…but I can't accept it."
"Just once? Wear it once, please?" Jeff asked as I let out a sigh.
"Is this an 'I'm not going to take a no,' type situation?" I asked curiously as I looked up at him as Jeff nodded.
"Absolutely."
"Why's that?"
"Because this is my promotion and everyone needs to look their best, including the best we have regardless if you are new or not."
"But I may not even be performing tonight."
"But you may, we don't know…better be safe than sorry." Jeff said as I sighed as I pushed a hand through my hair.
"Are you keeping track of how much I am owing you with all this?" I said using my hands to point out the stack of DVDs I was packing up and the wrestling gear he had invested in for me.
"I'm not, I'm using it to write off as a charity case for taxes and investment for someone's future." Jeff said as I rolled my eyes.
"Whatever you think and say Jeff." I said as I sighed before I licked the seal on the envelope before closing it and folding the little tabs over the seal.
"You almost done, we need to be leaving soon."
"This early?"
"Yes, since it's my show we need to be there wicked early to set things up and everything." Jeff said as I nodded.
"I can presume this tonight or tomorrow." I said as I put the now sealed envelope with the other sealed and ready to go envelopes before I stood up. "Just let me freshen up and pack up things for the night." I stated as Jeff nodded as I headed towards the guest room that I have claimed mine the last week or so grabbing a few things becoming instantly nervous of what was to unfold tonight and/or what this could lead to if I am actually good at my match tonight. I pulled the backpack I haven't had my bag since this whole fiasco began onto my back heading out of the room towards the kitchen pulling out a water bottle from the fridge. It seemed I was the first ready so I just made myself comfortable sitting in the same chair as I was sitting in earlier until Jeff returned from his room with a duffel, in a plain white tee and black shorts, if that is what you would call it since it went to mid-calf, that had a silver chain that I presume hooked to his wallet in his pocket and his white socks that were obviously showing in his sneakers. Jeff had his hair pulled back and was freshly shaven in the unique style that Jeff always has his beard in.
"You ready?" Jeff asked as I stood up nodding, here I was going with Jeff to one of the shows that him and his brother put on almost regularly. I had no idea what to expect from today much less what takes place at their shows, here is finding out what this whole wrestling show or promotions is all about.
