Chapter 3
Ben walked out into the arena angrily, after having been yelled at by Jose to stay at his post. He liked hanging around backstage, especially when the wrestlers came to town. He was planning on going back too until he saw his older brother Bobby, talking to a pretty, tall girl with dark brown hair. He couldn't see her face, but from what he could see of her, he had no complaints.
He stood behind her, waiting for an introduction and frowned as he realized the smile on his older brothers had disappeared as soon as Bobby had caught sight of him. Corinne felt the change in Bobby's attitude and turned around and encountered a guy who looked to be a younger version of Bobby, close to her own age.
"Um, Corinne, this is my little brother, Ben." Bobby said, handling the introductions.
"Ben, this is a friend of mine, Corinne." They shook hands and Ben smiled his infamous slow side grin, which usually drove girls crazy. It was about to have the same effect on Corinne when the Hardy Boys music came on and she turned towards the ring and excused herself.
"It was nice to meet you Ben. And I'll talk to you later Bobby. Bye now!" She said, quickly running back to her seat.
"Who was that bro?"
"Oh, you know a girl I met a few years ago. She works for the WWF in Stamford, I think she might be dating one of the wrestlers," Bobby said, blatantly lying and hoping that it would fend off his brothers obvious interest in Corinne.
"Yeah? Which one?" Ben asked, noticing that Bobby couldn't quite meet his eye.
"Umm, I think one of the Hardy Boys. Yeah, the bigger and older one."
"What's his name?"
"Umm…" Bobby thought, then the announcer said:
"Weighing in at 225 pounds, Matt Hardy!"
"That's him. Matt Hardy."
Ben narrowed his eyes at his brother and mumbled, 'good save' under his breath but somehow got the feeling that she wasn't really with the wrestler.
