Chapter 44

The next few days passed with no mention of the drunken confessions Gemma made to Amy. They'd all started work now, every day was something new & exciting & Gemma was having the time of her life! She'd interviewed Dwayne 2 days earlier & really enjoyed it although she was still waiting to see whether it would be published. Dwayne had been really great with her & afterwards he'd taken her & Shane out to lunch. She'd gotten to know him quite well & she was pleased to be fitting in & making new friends & doing a job she really loved!

Since the interview she'd also written a review of a house show which Shane had posted on the internet! She'd had a blast at the show & afterwards she'd gotten to meet a few of the wrestlers! Adam had been very jealous when she'd told him how Shane had introduced her to guys like Stone Cold Steve Austin & Mick Foley!

Amy, Adam & Jay had been busy in training during the day & had been taken to shows most nights to watch the 'pro's' in action! Gemma spent her days tagging along behind Shane, who seemed to have taken her under his wing, which she was very greatful of! Her nights were speant either at house shows or sitting infront of a computor screen typing up her work. She worked late & she worked hard & she was loving every minute of it!

She didnt see much of Adam which she was kinda sad about & she only saw Amy in passing in & out of the appartment.

She was sitting at the computor late one evening typing up her latest story when her cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey Gem!"

"Jeff?"

"Yeah it's me! Just thought Id call & see how its all going down there!"

"Oh...hi! Yeah its all good!" She didnt know how to handle this at all, her heart pounded in her throat.

"Ok, great! I just thought maybe you would have called me before now? I was getting worried!"

"Oh sorry...Ive been so busy! I havent even called Dad in days! Erm......so how are you?"

"Well the good news is...we'll be comming down tomorrow!"

"TOMORROW?!"

"Yeah well, Matt spoke to Vince yesterday....he's getting restless! So we decided we could come down.....I mean its pointless Matt missing out on training because of me!"

"Oh........right....I mean that's great!"

"Yeah I can just sit in on the sessions for a week or so...its my ankle thats holding me back! It's so frustrating!"

"Well dont rush anything though Jeff or it could be permenantly screwed!"

"Yeah I know. Vince is a smart guy with smart doctors! They wont let me put a foot in that ring until Im 100%! Besides I kinda miss you.....and erm Amy too! Its not the same without you guys around!"

Gemma laughed. "Yeah I know what you mean! Me & Amy were just saying the same thing, it aint the same just us two on our own!"

"So.......guess I'll see you tomorrow then?"

"Guess so."

"Oh how's my car by the way?"

"Apart from the missing door & the cracked windshield you mean?!"

"You better be joking!"

"RELAX! The damn car is fine!"

"Jesus Gemma I almost freaked!"

"Trust me will you? Besides I have my own car now!"

"You're kidding me?"

"Nope! It still needs to be paid for but I figured Id need my own transport once you guys got here anyway!"

"Cool!"

"Oh Jeff I have call waiting! I'll have to go! See you tomorrow!"

"Sure thing!"

"Hello?"

"Hello beautiful! remember me?"

"Adam! Hey whatcha up to?!"

"Well I was just gonna ask you the same thing! See Ive got a couple of hours with nothin to do!"

"Well let me finish up here & Im sure I'll find something to amuse you!"

"Sounds promising!"

"Hey I make no promises!!" Laughed Gemma. "Give me half an hour & I'll come over to your place ok?"

"Cant wait!"

*******

As it turned out it was 2 hours before Gemma could get finished & get toAdam's appartment! She found the door unlocked & the place in darkness. She went into Adam's room & saw he'd gone to bed. She stood looking at him for a little while then started to get undressed. She hadn't slept with him since they'd arrived down there but somehow now seemed to be the right time. She slid her naked body next to his under the covers & he stirred.

"Gemma?"

She didnt speak. She passionatle kissed him & he moaned.

"You sure you want....."

"Shhhhh..." She put a finger to his lips "Im sure!"

Her hand slid down between his legs & he gasped & grabbed her tightly, kissing her deeply.

It was another 4 hours and 5am before they fell asleep exhausted in each other's arms.
