Today I only have a short chapter for you. I had some family stuff going on and I had to catch up with Extreme Rules. Tomorrow I won't have a lot of time to write as well. I hope you understand and be patient. Thank you!
Chapter 21
Jon and Colby left for their workout leaving us girls alone.
"He really wants to marry you, you know that Sam, right? He needs you around. You make him that much better when you are around. Why are you holding him away at arm length still?"
"I don't. It's too soon Leigh. We have spent maybe 4 weeks in total together. We can't just marry and hope for the best. Not when I would have to give up everything. I can't just say: Well I try this and when it doesn't work I go back. It doesn't work that way."
"Oh Sam. There is no safety net here. You have to take a leap of faith. There are no guarantees in any relationship. He loves you, you love him. You complete each other. You ratted him out with the skunk comment. And whatever he has on you, he would never spill it. He gets you inside and out Sam. Whatever he has on you, no one else knows. He won't betray that trust and embarrass you." "Like I did?"
"NO! You can't embarrass Jon Moxley, girl, you know that. He can take it. But he knows that you have some soft spots under all that armor and while you talk about certain things you have some stuff you are embarrassed about. And he will take them to his grave. He is such a complex character. And I am sure he told you stuff no one else knows. Not even the guys. Because he has touchy spots as well and you know better than to address them publicly."
I knew these spots. Like his childhood. Living on the streets for a while. His parents.
My stuff was nothing against that. Just weird little things. Wow.
"Think about it Sam. You are not alone here. You may be across the US in Vegas, but I will always be there for you. So will Colby. We love you and when you complete our good friend Jon in such a perfect way, we will do anything to help. Besides, I need another girlfriend who gets me when I complain about the guys. Think about it Samantha, promise!" "I promise."
And I would but it was such a big step and I wished someone would truly understand that but as of now everyone kept pushing me to do this.
Jon's POV
"You good?" Colby asked Jon on the way to the gym.
"Fine. Everything is perfect. I am glad you are here."
"That's not what I meant." Colby pointed out.
"I am fine. She will come around when she is ready. She will..."
"Does she know what you did?" "Nope." Jon shook his head.
"And you won't tell her." he mumbled giving Colby a warning glance.
"I won't but you sell yourself short. Just saying."
Jon had prepared everything. He had done the unthinkable...used the internet to learn about marrying a foreigner, what it took to get them a visa to stay in the US and everything else involved.
He was kinda like an expert by now and he even asked some guys at the WWE about it. Plus: He had talked to Hunter about that job for Sam and he had promised to figure something out when the time came.
They arrived at the gym, finding a waiting Hannah, no one else.
They took her inside with them and Jon appointed her his official secretary.
And even though he made her cheat he lost to Colby by a mile.
"I am the master of Crossfit!" Colby pointed out laughing.
