Cat was sleeping. The ringing of the phone woke her up. She looked at the clock 5:37 a.m.
"Hello." She said groggily.
"Hi Cat! I'm calling from the plane. We land in 15 minutes."
"Andrew? That was quick!"
"I caught the first flight I could. I didn't want to wait."
"I'll meet you at the airport what airline and flight?"
"American, flight 107."
"OK. I'll be there."
"Good I can't wait to see you."
Kat showered and dressed, then headed for the airport.
She stood at the American Airlines terminal watching the passengers disembark.
There he was, oh god! He looked incredible! Tight faded blue jeans that fit in all the right places, a black t-shirt, black leather jacket, sunglasses, his hair pulled back in a ponytail.
His face lit up as he saw Cat.
"Hi!"
"Hi yourself."
"Mind if I kiss you?" He whispered
She put her arms around his neck and kissed him, running her hand along the back of his neck.
"Let's go." She said as she finally pulled away from him.
"So what do you do for fun around here?" He asked after they were in her car.
"Andrew, it's 6:30 on a Sunday morning! There isn't much to do anywhere!" She laughed
"That's true, I guess." He said.
"Why don't we go back to my place? I'll make us some breakfast and we can watch a movie. How does that sound?"
"Sounds good."
They went to her apartment.
"This is a nice place Cat."
"Thanks. I really like it. Why don't you go pick out a movie, and make yourself comfortable and I'll make breakfast. French toast ok with you?"
"Sounds great!"
He watched her walk into the kitchen. She looked so cute this morning. Grey shorts and tank top, He was used to girls dressing to kill around him, he liked that Cat hadn't done that. She looked natural, and he found that very sexy. He turned his attention to her collection. There was a wide variety of movies. Action, romance, comedy, drama. He picked up Braveheart, one of his favorites. He slipped it into the VCR.
"Andrew, do you want coffee?" She called
"Yes, please!" He got up and walked to the bar and leaned against it. She handed him a cup.
"My biggest vice! I have to have my coffee." She said. "Have a seat, this will be ready in a minute."
He sat down at the bar and watched her work.
Cat was nervous with him watching her. What was he thinking? She unconsciously patted her hair. She hoped she looked ok. It was early when he called and she had thrown on the first thing she could find.
"Cat, you look beautiful." He smiled at her and her heart raced.
"Thanks, let's eat."
They talked as they ate. He was possibly the sweetest guy she had ever met. He was impressed. She was smart and funny and so damn cute!
They went to watch the movie, he sat down on the couch and pulled her down next to him. She kicked her shoes off and snuggled up next to him. He put his arm around her. They watched the movie in silence, each enjoying the nearness of the other.
As the closing credits rolled he looked down at her.
"Cat, can I kiss you again?"
She answered by turning towards him. Getting on her knees she took his face in her hands and started kissing him. She could feel the flame in her rise steadily. Andrew moaned as her tongue explored his mouth. She began running her hands over his chest, she could feel his heart beating very fast. She started to pull his shirt off of him but he stopped her.
"Cat, this isn't why I came back. I like you, and I don't mean just to get you into bed." He could see the look of confusion on her face.
"Don't you want me?" She asked
"Yes I do, but it's more than sex. Let me see if I can explain this to you." He said
He was looking into her eyes.
"Cat, its not often I meet a woman who likes me. Just me. Who doesn't care what I do for a living.
Women throw themselves at me all the time. I used to sleep with a lot of women. When I first started, it was such a rush. It took me awhile to realize it didn't matter to them who it was as long as they could say they slept with someone from the WWF."
"Andrew, I do care. I thought you knew that."
"At first I thought you were playing me. I figured you'd come back. Then you didn't, and when I heard what you said to Lance, I thought about it and realized there was no way you could have known I overheard you guys. Adam even apologized for his stupid remarks. Even he realized it. I couldn't stop thinking about you."
"Andrew, I don't know what to say. I do want you, but I also think you are extremely sweet and funny."
"Cat, I want to take this slow. I don't want to rush into anything ok?"
"Ok, I understand that."
They spent the day laughing and talking. They watched more movies, Andrew made her lunch, he was a great cook. They were sitting in her living room on the floor playing Scrabble when Cat asked him where he intended to spend the night.
"I can get a hotel room if you want, but I'd rather stay here with you. I want to spend every minute I can with you. I promise to keep my hands to myself."
"I don't mind if you stay here. I'd like that."
"Do you want to go out tonight?" He asked
"Actually, if you aren't bored, I'd rather stay here. If we go out you'll be mobbed with fans and I feel a little selfish, but I want you all to myself."
His heart raced as she said it. He was hoping she'd say that. It just went to prove she wasn't interested in showing off the fact that she was with a WWF Superstar. He was thrilled.
"I am definitely not bored, but I didn't want to disappoint you."
"I'm not. I just want to be with you."
They ordered pizza for dinner and both enjoyed just being with the other. After dinner Cat put some music on the stereo. She held her hand out to him.
"Dance with me?" She smiled
He took her hand and pulled her to him, wrapping his arms around her waist. She laid her head against his chest. They swayed to the music for a long time.
True to his word Andrew slept on her couch.
