John and Jenn had certainly had an interesting time together. They had more ups and downs in their relationship than most high school couples, that was for sure. This past year was definitely one of hardships for them, but there were definitely some great moments as well. They were both VERY glad that summer was finally upon them now. It couldn't have worked out better. John had his eighteenth birthday, his arm was finally out of a cast, and his brother's recovery was going great.
John and Jenn would make sure this summer would be the best. This was the summer before John's senior year and they wanted some real time together. Because they made love, they were even closer than before. Now that summer was in full swing, they would definitely get to do more things together.
It was about the end of June, and Jenn and John had spent the first few weeks of summer vacation relaxing and just sleeping in. They also were helping out with Steve's physical therapy. For a weekend in July, though, John had a surprise for Jenn. He begged and pleaded for permission from his parents and they buckled. Now he needed to ask for Mr. and Mrs. Rowan's permission for Jenn to go with him.
John drove to Jenn's house an early July afternoon and Mrs. Rowan answered the door. They smiled at each other as John entered the house. Mrs. Rowan went to go get Jenn, But John shook his head.
"No, wait…actually, I wanted to talk to you and Mr. Rowan, if that's okay." he said, shoving his hands in his pockets.
"Us? Sure…come into the kitchen." she said, leading him to the kitchen.
"Honey, come in here." she called to her husband who was watching something on television.
"What is it?" Mr. Rowan asked as he came into the kitchen.
"John wants to talk to us about something." she said as they all sat down.
"Shouldn't we call Jennifer in here?" he asked pointing towards the upstairs. John shook his head.
"No, because I want to surprise her."
"So why do you need to talk to us first? Do you need us to take her somewhere for you or something?" Mrs. Rowan asked smiling.
"No…I want your permission to take her somewhere."
"Where do you want to take her?" Mr. Rowan automatically asked.
"Well it's Boston, but we'll be out really late, that is, if we can go, so, I was wondering if we could stay the night at a friend's house afterwards."
"What do you want to take her to that will last so long?" Mrs. Rowan asked tilting her head.
"I got a connection and my friend hooked me up with tickets to WWF RAW is War…ringside seats." he said smiling.
"Well that's nice but how is it gonna take so long that you can't make it back here that night?" Mr. Rowan asked, crossing his arms over his chest.
"They also hooked me up to go backstage after the show. We'd get to meet the superstars and stuff." he said chuckling.
"Well…I don't know…you'd spend the night in Boston?" Mrs. Rowan asked, unsure.
"Yes."
"I don't know if I can trust you with my baby girl." Mr. Rowan said in a protective tone.
"Could you excuse us for a minute?" she asked with a polite smile as John went to the living room area.
"I say no." Mr. Rowan said right off the bat.
"Why not, dear?"
"Because they are too young." he said immediately as well.
"John is a responsible boy. He's going to be a senior in high school and he's almost eighteen." she responded.
"Are you saying you're okay with them spending the night away from home?"
"I'm saying that I'm smart enough to trust our own daughter. She's not a child anymore."
"She's still our child."
"She has to grow up sometime."
"Says who?" he said almost like a kid himself, making his wife roll her eyes.
"John, come back in." she called.
"So…is it okay?" John asked nervously.
"Yes, but we expect a phone call that night and the morning after." she said sternly.
"Oh no problem. Thanks so much." he said with pure sincerity.
"So we're not to tell Jenn about this?" Mr. Rowan finally spoke up.
"Yeah, I wanna surprise her."
"So when is this gonna happen?"
"Next week. I'm going to call her the night before to tell her to pack up."
"John? Is that you?" Jenn called as she entered the kitchen. She had seen his car outside and went to see where he was.
"Oh~ Hey beautiful~." he said as he kissed her cheek smiling.
"When did you get here? I saw your car a few minutes ago yet you didn't come up to see me." she said pouting, making him chuckle.
"I wanted to talk to your mom and dad about something, that's all." he said simply. She arched her eyebrow.
"Talk about what?"
"He was talking to me about football." her father spoke up. Mrs. Rowan was surprised he would help like that.
"Oh…well what's up?" she asked, dropping the subject.
"Nothing really…just wanted to drop by and say hi. Oh…don't make any plans next week." he said quickly.
"Why? What's up?" she asked scratching her head.
"It's a surprise." he said with a wink. She blinked confused before shrugging.
"Okay…" she said shrugging again.
"Well I need to head home. I gotta take Steve to his physical therapy today." he said as he checked his watch.
"Call me later." she said as she walked him to the door and pecked his lips.
The week passed by relatively quickly but it seemed to take forever for Jenn because it was bugging her like crazy about what the surprise from John was. Then he called her and he told her to pack an overnight bag. Her parents seemed to be playing stupid too so now she was both flustered and frustrated. She did as she was asked, however.
When John came to get her, she was very antsy. Her parents were still not telling her anything and John didn't seem to want to tell her so when he came to get her at her house, she just stood in the hallway near the front door. John grabbed her bag but she still wasn't moving. Now John was confused.
"Jenn…what's up?" he asked curiously.
"What is going on?" she asked finally.
"I told you, it's a surprise." he said again.
"Can't you give me a little hint?! It's driving me crazy!" she whined cutely.
"It'll all be worth it, trust me." he said smiling and kissing her lips. She sighed, giving in.
"Fine…let's go already." she said, resigned.
The drive to Boston was relatively quiet. Jenn figured they were headed to Boston but she wasn't exactly sure why. Once they got closer to the city, she finally decided to speak up. She couldn't take it anymore.
"Okay, why are in Boston? What's going on?" she asked, huffing.
"Can't you just enjoy the ride?" he asked chuckling.
"No! I can't!" she said immediately.
"Just wait a goddamn minute!" he finally exclaimed.
"You know I get impatient!" she whined.
"Well it'll all be worth it. You brought your camera with lots of batteries right?" he asked, making sure.
"Of course, but what does that have to do with anything?"
"It has everything to do with our date tonight."
"Date?"
"Yes, a date. And, okay, I'll give you this much. Your parents and mine gave us permission to spend the night in Boston. We'll be staying with a friend of mine tonight." he said smiling. Her jaw dropped.
"Are you serious? My parents actually agreed?"
"Yeah…believe me I'm shocked too, but hey, whatever works, right?" he said chuckling.
"That's awesome! What more could you have done for us?" she asked, confused. She seriously couldn't believe how cool her parents were about this.
Luckily, her excitement over that initial surprise was enough to keep her occupied while he drove to where they would be staying. They were staying with John's friend since he was their ticket in to the event in question. They got to the apartment and were greeted by his friend. This guy was a bit older but it was still cool.
"Hey John. It's been a while." the guy said, flashing a grin as they did a handshake.
"Seriously…oh, Jack, this is my girlfriend Jenn." he introduced, putting his arm around her.
"Oh, I've heard a lot about you…though I didn't think you were real." he said, shaking Jenn's hand.
"What do you mean?" she asked, confused.
"I didn't think any girl could put up with John this much. But I guess anything's possible." he said chuckling.
"Oh…well…there's a first time for everything." she replied with a laugh.
"So I bet you're totally excited for tonight." Jack said excitedly.
"John hasn't told me what we're doing tonight." she said, throwing John a playful glare.
"Oh…then even better. I hope you don't mind…but we're gonna have to blindfold you and cover your ears until the absolute right time." he said, helping John out.
"I hate you both!" she practically screamed.
"Well we'll be leaving in about twenty minutes, so it won't be that long of a wait." Jack reassured.
"So are we meeting up with anyone?" John asked, setting the stuff more to the side.
"Yeah, my girlfriend is gonna meet us there."
"Okay…so hurry up so we can get this over with." she said, giving in finally. She figured at this point, she might as well enjoy the ride.
They blind folded her and placed a set of huge headphones that were soundproof. They guided her around and made sure she didn't hurt herself, but at the same time, they had to make sure she really couldn't hear or see anything. They were going to wait until the absolutely last minute possible to ensure maximum surprise and her reaction. Jenn, however, was having a difficult time staying patient through this whole thing, especially with being jostled around and being near a bunch of other people.
John looked at his watch and when he saw it was less than five minutes until RAW started, he took off her headphones but left her blind folded still. Now Jenn was even more confused because she heard the chatter of everyone. John had bought her a Stone Cold Steve Austin t-shirt with some money her parents left with him.
"Jenn, raise your arms." he instructed. She did so but she felt silly. He slipped the t-shirt over her head and her arms through the sleeves.
"John…what's going on? What's with the shirt?" she asked, trying to feel over it.
"You'll see in about a minute." he promised as he looked at the giant clock.
In that minute he took the blind fold off and let her eyes adjust. The first thing she did was look at her shirt. She arched her eyebrow until she got a good look around. She saw a giant ramp with the titantron she'd grown accustomed to seeing all these years. She then looked dead ahead and there it was…the ring. She looked to John and gasped.
"You…we…is this…?" she asked, at a loss for words.
"Is this RAW is WAR? Yes…yes it is." he responded for her.
"Oh my god!" she squealed before kissing him deeply and passionately.
"Surprise…" he said against her lips, making her smile.
"Sorry…" she said, pouting a bit.
"Why are you sorry?"
"I was being such a bitch about it…"
"Hey, you didn't know…and I know how you get impatient…in fact it's quite cute." he said smiling widely at her.
She was about to say something else but the pyrotechnics for the show started and they had to put the conversation on hold. Jenn immediately went for her camera and started taking pictures. She took a couple of the group and a few of her and John together. There were a couple of kissing pictures, of course.
Jenn ended up getting less pictures than she planned because she was so busy screaming and enjoying the show itself. Her camera was all over the place, though, when they got sent backstage where quite a few of the superstars were. They got pictures with Triple H, The Rock, Shawn Michaels, and various other superstars. Jenn was in most fan girl mode when she saw her favorite wrestler of all time…Stone Cold Steve Austin. He took a few pictures with her and even gave her an autograph.
"Thank you so much Stone Cold!! You are the best, most badass wrestler there ever was." she couldn't help but gush.
"You're welcome darlin'." he said politely before having to leave.
On the way back to John's friend's apartment, Jenn was so excited. She and John were talking about the show and how amazing it was. John was just happy she had such a good time. By the time they got back, much of the adrenaline had gone and they were both pretty tired. They got into the bed they were sharing and Jenn fell asleep rather quickly in his arms. John on the other hand was laying in bed thinking about the show. He loved wrestling and while he was watching the show, he couldn't help but want to be a part of it.
He went to sleep, his thoughts drifting about how much he would love to be a wrestler and have fans cheering for him like that. His other thoughts drifted to the girl in his arms and how glad he was that he had the whole summer to spend with her. This would be the start of a very fun summer.
Please be merciful with the replies...
