Okay, well here's the conclusion of my humble little story. I'll probably write another one that'll go further into Matt and Amy's 'relationship.' Hope you enjoyed it!
For the next two weeks, Nora had been spoiled with gifts from her mystery man. The notes only got more romantic, which made it even harder for Nora to figure it out. Half the WWF roster knew who it was from, but nobody wanted to ruin the surprise for Nora. Besides, what kind of a story would this be, if they DID tell her?
"I'm starting to run out of places to put this stuff," Nora smiled looking down at all the gifts she's recieved. A lot of them had been eaten since there quite a few chocolate boxes, but there were dozens of teddy bears, little trinkets, and an assortment of other things. Amy was just as much left in the dark as Nora. A knock interupted their conversation.
"Go, see if it's him this time!" Amy exclaimed, just as excited as Nora. Nora ran up to open the door only to find the same thing she's found the first time she opened the door; no man, just an object.
"It's a note this time. Maybe it's a poem..." Nora sighed flopping down onto the bed.
"Why don't you read it, nerdy?" Amy laughed excitedly.
"Okay, don't need to get your panties all in a bunch!" Nora giggled. "To my precious Nora. For weeks, I've been trying to capture your heart, and I feel that it is time. It is time for you to know who I am, in hopes that you'll return the sentiment. If you don't, then I want to tell you what I've felt anyway. For months, I've admired you from a far. Every smile, every frown, every giggle I love. Around you, I feel as if I was complete, and that I'm invincible. Without you, I feel lonely and cold. I cannot ask you anymore then what you're willing to give, but I pray with every inch of my being, that you'll feel a fraction of what I feel for you. It's not only your physical beauty that attracts me to you. It's your heart that I find most attractive. You're the sweetest, gentlest, kindest, most generous woman I know. No matter what happens, you'll always have a tender place in my heart. I beg you to let me love you. Meet me at the bar in your hotel at 8:30 tonight. Wear something formal, and look as beautiful as you always do." Nora looked up at Amy, and both women had tears in their eyes. Someone knocked. They both stared at the door before Amy got up to open the door.
"Hey, what took you so long? We brought food," Jeff said barging in with the rest of the guys following him.
"What's wrong? Why are you guys crying?" Matt asked Amy alarmed.
"No, it's not what you think. We're not sad, but Nora's mystery man... he gave her a letter..." Amy began.
"And he changed his mind and doesn't like you any more? That ASS!" Jay interupted her. The other guys tried not to start laughing, afraid to offend Amy and Nora.
"No! Not that!" Nora cried out in alarm.
"That it was all a joke, and it was really Joanie? That bitch!" Adam interupted.
"Stop interupting, and let us finish!" Amy groaned. "He wrote her such a beautiful letter! I wish someone would write me a letter like that..."
"Can we see?" Matt asked and Nora handed him the white piece of paper.
"This guys is really something..." Chris said when he finished reading what he wrote. He got the desired reaction, and he was trying so hard not to blow his cover now. It was hard lying to Nora for the past few weeks, but he kept on reminding himself that it would all be worth it.
"Don't you say one more word about him, Chris Irvine! He's the sweetest, most kind hearted man I've never known, and I don't want you insulting him!" Nora said on the verge of tears. What was this? Why was she crying now? He didn't even say a word.
"Nora!! I didn't say anything like that, and I wasn't going to. Now stop your crying, Sugar!" Chri felt bad and he put his arm around the unstable blonde. Then, she began crying on his shoulder; something he didn't expect.
"Nora, what's wrong?" Adam asked looking scared.
"Nothing!" she wailed.
"Then why are you crying?" Jeff asked putting his chips down.
"I don't know!" Chris stood there looking helplessly at the people in the room while he tried to comfort Nora. He never wanted to make her cry, and if it was his fault, he'd never forgive himself.
"I think it's time for anyone with a penis to leave the room," Amy said which got a giggle/whimper from Nora. The guys nodded their head understandingly and made their way to the door.
"Fix your face, Sugar, and make that mystery man wish he hadn't wasted three weeks." This only caused Nora to cry harder. Chris looked at Amy helplessly. She smiled lightly and walked over to get Nora to lean on her, so Chris could leave. The guys were waiting outside for him. "What'd I do?! This was a mistake! She knows it's me, and she doesn't like me!"
"Chris shut up, she doesn't know it's you!" Jay said.
"Then why was she crying?"
"Maybe it's you know.... that time of the month....." Adam trailed off. "Girls get emotional."
"Adam! Nora was just probably nervous, don't worry about it, man. We all know how she feels," Matt hit Adam and tried to comfort his other friend.
"I hope you're right, Matt."
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
"Nora, what's wrong?" Amy asked as soon as they were alone.
"Amy, I still like Chris so much! This guy... he's been so wonderful to me, but I just care for Chris too much! Why can't it be him?"
"Oh Nora. I was so wrapped up about it, I forgot all about Chris. Well, you can't keep the mystery man hanging. But Chris... Why don't you go meet mystery man at the bar, and explain things to him. Who knows, maybe you'll change your mind about him. But you can't let this opprotunity pass. It's Chris's own fault, right?" It pained Amy to say that, but it was the only choice at this point in time.
"Maybe you're right."
"Now let's find you something to wear."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Since neither Nora or Amy had any 'formal' wear, and since there was enough time, the two women went out shopping. Losing all track of time, the arrived at the hotel at 7:30, which left half an hour to get dressed.
"Amy! Where are the shoes?!" Nora cried frantically.
"Okay, relax! I'll find the shoes, you just put on the dress and I'll help you with your hair and make up. We can do this!" Amy answered just as frantically. Nora carefully, but quickly, put the dress on. A silk baby blue oriental style dress with a flower and humming bird on the left breast. Amy managed to get Nora to sit on the toilet while she put on some make up.
"What are you going to do with my hair?" Nora asked looking at the mirror. For the first time in hours, she liked what she saw in the mirror.
"I got chopsticks, and I'm going to put your hair up in a messy bun and stick them in there," Amy answered sweeping up Nora's white blonde hair. Fifteen minutes later, Nora was ready to go. "You'll be fashionably late."
"Is that good?" Nora asked.
"It's perfect," Amy smiled. She felt like her little girl was growing up.
"Wait. How do I find him?!" Nora asked starting to panic again.
"Chill, he'll find you. It's okay. This is good... everything is fine. Just breathe!" Two minutes later, Nora walked out of the hotel room and made her way to the elevator. And waiting there was Matt, Jeff, Adam, and Jay.
"Nora! You look gorgeous! You're gonna knock his socks off!" Jeff grinned giving his friend a hug.
"I'm telling you, if you're not careful, I'm going to steal you away from here. Brow!" Adam winked at her, and it helped calm her nerves; a bit.
"Where's Chris?" Nora asked nervously.
"He's still in the room. He's in the bathroom," Matt answered.
"Oh." 'It was better this way,' Nora thought to herself. If she saw him, it would only be harder. The elevators door opened, and as they closed, it sealed her fate.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Chris looked at his watch impatiently. Five minutes late. 'What if she changed her mind?' he thought nervously to himself, and he began to sweat. Chris thought of the worst possible things, and was on the verge of running away screaming like a banshee when she walked in. Nora, in her blue dress was like a vision from heaven. Chris sucked in his breath and hid behind a plant so she didn't him. The maitre'd brought her to the bar, as he asked him to, and she sat down at a bar stool. He silently made his way to the beautiful woman, and paused before lifting his hand to tap her on the shoulder.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Nora tapped her fingers nervously against the wooden bar; a bad habit. It was only a matter of minutes before she started chewing on her nails. As she inhaled slowly, a familiar fregrance wafted through the air. It was HIS cologne. Nora bit her lip and held the tears back; it was harder than she thought. What was worse, was she was probably imagining the smell. "Geez, Nora. You are losing it, and it's all silly Chris's fault..."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Chris froze when she started to speak. He nearly forgot what he was doing when he heard his name. So it was true. Everybody was right, and not delillusional. "I thought if I invited you here you'd forget about that shmuck."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Nora whipped around when she heard his deep voice. Behind her was Chris, dressed in a black tuxedo. 'No, this is a joke. This has to be a joke.'
"Chris?" Nora squeaked. "Is this a joke?"
"A guy lays out his heart, and she asks if it's a joke," he answered looking disappointed. He wasn't joking. "I guess..."
"No! I.... Oh Chris!" Nora jumped off the stool and threw her arms around Chris's neck. She started to cry once more; why was she so emotional?
"Please don't cry, Sugar. I don't like it when you cry," Chris whispered in her ear. "It makes me feel like I've failed you in some way."
"Chris, you couldn't do that. Even if you tried!" she replied not letting him go. By this point in time, half of the bar was looking at them and grinning since most of them were the wrestlers. Nora had never felt so much relief in her entire life. Of course she felt joy and happiness, and all the other good stuff. When she finally pulled back, Chris kept his arms around her waist. She had never imagined it would end up like this. "It was you all along?" she asked.
"It was. I was so afraid you wouldn't give me a chance, I wanted to show you that I could be a nice guy."
"Oh Chris," she sighed hugging him tightly again. "You don't know how happy I am. I almost didn't come because I liked you too much..."
"You almost didn't come because of me? Wouldn't that have been a story..." Chris teased. Nora continued to hold Chris, it was too good to be true, and if it was a dream, she never wanted to wake up.
"Did you really mean all those things that you wrote?" Nora asked shyly.
"Every single word from the bottom of my heart."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Chris could not stop smiling. All of his fears and nerves were calmed when Nora threw her little arms around his neck. He held her, not wanting to forget the feeling of being the happiest man alive. Of course she cried, but she told him they were good tears. He looked over his shoulder and saw Jeff, Matt, Jay, and Adam giving thim thumbs up and silently clapping.
"What's the crowd?" Amy said from coming up behind Matt and Adam. Her eyes bulged out and her jaw dropped to the ground. When she recovered from the initial shock she looked almost half as happy as Chris felt. "It was CHRIS?" she said turning to Matt. He nodded his head and grinned. "And NOBODY told me?!" Amy gave Matt a good wack in the arm and glared at the rest of them. "I can't believe you didn't tell me! Stupid idiots..." she started beating on the four of them now. Nora turned her head to see what Chris was laughing at.
"What's going on?"
"Amy found out and now she's taking out her aggression cuz we didn't tell her." A yelp of pain came from Jay when she shoved the four of them away.
"Leave them alone now, morons..." she muttered. Nora laughed and Chris sighed and looked down at Nora.
"So, shall we eat, my sweet Nora?"
"We shall, my sweet Chris."
THE END!
