I looked at the door, half in shock, and half in denial. Surely this
couldn't be what I'm seeing? I pinched myself to make sure.
"Since when do dreams hurt?"
I must have asked out loud, because Mr. Sabo gave me a questioning look, the kind he gave me when I gave out wrong answers in class on purpose.
"Mattia, I'm sure you know, Jeff, Matt, Amy, Vince, and Paul. Well you know of them."
"Umm… errr… What the fuck?" So totally not a good first impression but cut me some slack, this was just weird.
I looked in to Paul's eyes. I saw fear, hope, regret, just everything. And I knew. "She lied to me." Was all I could say before I ran from the room!
I ran down the hall fast and furious. The cafeteria was filled with my 'peers'. They were all eating and talking about all the trivial things you never think of. I ran strait to my usual table with tears streaming down my face. By now a few kids looked up to see what was going on.
"Matti?" Sky gave me a concerned look I never saw from her before.
"She fucking lied to me. I flat out asked her and she lied! I don't even know who I am!" I screamed. Cassandra, Shandi, Hannah, Rachael, Kathryn, and Jess all hugged me. Emil quickly went over to the next table and brought Matt and Talia over.
Matt pulled me into a hug. "Matti? What's wrong? You never cry." And he was right, I never cry. Not when my mom died, not when my sister killed herself. I never cried, in front of anyone. I felt weak when I cried.
"My mom, she lied to me. I asked her, and she lied. I'm not Mattia Glass. I'm no one." I sobbed as I looked into Matt's eyes.
He shot me a questioning look, but before I could explain Paul Levesque, my father, was standing in the doorway. Not far behind him were The Hardy Boyz and Lita, as well as most of my teachers.
So yeah, I have this huge crush on Jeff Hardy, if you talked to me for only five minutes, you'd know who he was and what he looked like.
"Holy shit! That's … they're… Dionne, look, its Jeff Hardy." Shandi gasped.
I didn't look I just buried my face in Matt's shoulder. I wrapped my arms around him and refused to let go.
By this time my dad was coming over, suddenly Matt understood why I was so upset. "Where the hell have you been? You think you can just show up in her life after 16 years? Look at her, she doesn't need this." Matt yelled at him.
"Who the hell are you?" My dad shot back.
"I'm her friend, I care about her and I won't let you take her away from us." Matt said as he stood up.
"Matt, stop. You don't want to get into this. Look, I have to go. This is my life now I don't have a choice. But I'll miss you all, and I want you to know that you guys mean the world to me." My friends all came up to hug me, then left me standing face to face with Matt.
"I screwed up. I took you for granted, and now I'll never see you again. I wish I had been honest with you from the beginning. I wanted to be more than just friends I was going to tell you. But I thought you only wanted me as a friend. Now it's too late for that." Matt gave me a strong hug.
"Matt. I'll come back to see you lots, I promise. And I was fine with just being friends because I thought that's what you wanted. Its never too late Matt, remember that." I pulled out of the hug and kissed him.
I turned to my dad next. "I don't want to know why you were not a part of my life until now. That doesn't matter to me. I'm glad I have my father, and I want to love you, but it will take time. I suppose we should be going." I said as I hugged him.
"We will, in a minute. But first Vince and the others would like to talk to you."
"Mattia Levesque, as owner of the World Wrestling Federation, I'd like to offer you a four year contract. You'll be employed as a WWF crew member, and in time, we'd like to put you on WWF TV."
"And Matt, Jeff, and I would love to help you learn to wrestle, and hang out with you on the road." Amy added.
I didn't have to think it over, I knew I'd sign the contract. I said goodbye to my friends and teachers, and left my high school to start a new chapter in my life.
