I sat in my office, relaxing, drinking coffee. Shane and I had been intimately involved twice more since, taking our tally to five times. He burst into my office and locked the door behind him.
"Shane?" I questioned, this was unusual behavior for him.
"We need to talk, tonight you are having dinner with myself, Marissa and Andrew. We have a problem."
"No, we don't. If I show interest in Test, there will be no problem."
"There will." he looked serious.
"Why, will you be jealous?"
"No." he replied, I didn't believe him for a second.
"Fine."
"Fine." he stormed out the office. I was then placed in a bad mood, our first argument was over how I behaved over dinner with his wife and if he wanted to play hardball the so could I.
------------------------------------------------
I stood outside the McMahon house, holding a bottle of wine. I rang the bell and waited, Marissa answered and smiled at me.
"Kara, hello." she said.
"Hello, I brought this." I gave her the wine and she showed me inside. "I love your house." I looked around and though I'd visited before I'd never told Marissa how much I liked her home.
"Thank-you. You didn't bring a date."
"No, I'm single at the moment."
"Oh, well Andrew Martin is here as well."
"Oh." I feigned surprise.
"Come though." she showed me through to the den where Shane was sat with Andrew.
"Hi." I said to the others.
"Hello," Andrew said coming towards me. He was dressed in a pair of slacks and a plain shirt. I had met him before during the 'love her or leave her' storyline. "You look beautiful." he said looking at my outfit, a simple black skirt with a pretty one-shoulder top.
"Thank-you." I glanced passed him to Shane, who was glaring almost at Andrew. "Hello Shane."
"Hi, would you like a drink?" he asked me. "We've got wine, beer and practically every spirit."
"Erm, white wine would be lovely." I replied; he left the room with his wife. Andrew and I sat down on the couch.
"I think we're being set up." he told me.
"I know, I think it'll make Marissa happy if we play along. Besides, something might happen." he laughed, Shane returned with my drink and sat.
"Food smells great." Andrew said.
"Yeah, what is it?" I questioned.
"Don't ask me, I have no idea." he admitted.
"So, Kara. How'd did you get into wrestling." Andrew asked.
"I first saw, a show in '83. I went with a friend and I fell in love with the whole thing. In fact, I actually met Shane for the first time that night." I said.
"You did?" Shane asked.
"Yep, I was a horrible 9 year old that harassed you while you were cleaning up. Sorry."
"That memory is ingrained in my mind."
"So, what are your hobbies?" Andrew asked
"I like films, music and shopping."
"What type of music?"
"I like, rock, R&B most stuff really. But not the Crüe."
"Any specific artists?"
"It's too embarrassing."
"It won't be. I like embarrassing stuff too. Billy Joel, Bowie, Eurhythmics, I even have a soft spot for things like the Bananarama."
"Me too." I was surprised at the similarities. I smiled; the discussion was getting to Shane. Marissa reappeared to show us to the dining room. Shane held me back.
"Kara, please, I'm sorry. Don't do anything, please." I nodded and continued on to the dining room. Dinner was wonderful; the conversation was amusing and entertaining. Andrew was a lovely man, quite me. Marissa was pleased; her mission was almost complete. Shane looked miserable; he looked hurt. I left alone and went to bed. I could only think of Shane and Andrew.
