Chapter 22
"So..." Amy began.
"Yeah?" Corinne asked.
"I was just wondering what you did for the WWF?" Amy asked as she sat down on the bed while Corinne walked into the bathroom to gather her things.
"Well, right now I'm an accountant. There's an opening in the communications department as far as the journalism part is concerned and I minored in communications so I'm hoping to eventually jump ship to that."
"Oh, you're a writer."
"Not really, I just enjoy it and even if I don't get the position, I just love wrestling in general."
"Oh, like you're a fan."
"Since I was six years old I must say."
"Wow, and you never once thought about wrestling?" Amy asked, thinking "oh great, now they have things in common too."
"Um, no. Well yeah like in my dreams but I'm just not physically able enough to wrestle I don't think. Not much of an athlete you know. I mean sure I love working out and running and stuff, but not that much. Umm and no offense, but it just wasn't a safe route for me. I mean you know, it's not exactly the most sure occupation."
"Yeah, I guess." Amy said.
"I guess that just means I was scared. I don't know, growing up in a huge family, I was always aware of our financial situation so when I was in school, that was always in the back of my head. Even now, I tend to equate fulfillment and happiness with money." She sighed, and then continued. "I've heard about how you got in the business...I mean that's amazing, I wish I had half as much guts as you did."
"Thanks." Said Amy, watching her carefully and was frustrated at the naked trust Corinne seemed to have in her and how she just seemed so nice and honest.
Matt and Jeff walked into the room just as Corinne was zipping up her bag. Matt picked it up for her.
"So Amy, are you gonna be okay driving tomorrow?" Matt asked concernedly.
"Yeah, I'm sure we'll be fine," Amy said looking down on the floor, Matt was the only guy who was always a perfect gentleman to her, but it really wasn't until now, watching the way he looked at Corinne and the way that he had seemed to forget that she was even in the room during RAW that really made her feel threatened.
"Well, I should go to bed now. Have a good....drive you guys." Amy said as she walked back into her own room.
"Oh, Matt, I've got it." Corinne said trying to get her bag from him.
"No, I've got it. Besides, all my stuff is in the car already."
"But it's not even that heavy." Corinne protested.
"Yeah, I know so let my brother carry it. He needs the work out more than you do." Jeff added.
"Shut up Jeff." Matt retorted.
"He doesn't need anything...I mean..." Corinne started to defend Matt, then stopped embarrassedly when she realized what defending him would imply. Matt had the decency to blush, while Jeff laughed at first, then said.
"Wait a minute...what about me? Do I need anything?" When Corinne had no response, he grabbed the bag from his brother and started walking towards the door.
"Fine then, I guess that means she thinks you have a better body than I do." He said pettily as Matt and Corinne followed him to the elevator.
"Um, so where is Smackdown tomorrow?" Corinne asked as they rode the elevator down the hotel.
"It's in Buffalo." Matt answered.
When the elevator door opened, both Matt and Jeff waited until Corinne walked out before following.
"So kids, you two have fun," Jeff leered suggestively, but after Corinne got in the car and both Matt and Jeff walked to the trunk, he said seriously, "And please Matt, don't try to be a hero. If something bad happens which I hope it won't, just call the cops."
"I know, bro. I'll call your cell when we get there." Matt said, rounding the car to get to the drivers side, during which Jeff ran back to Corinne's window.
"Hey, Cor...take care of yourself and don't be afraid to have fun with my brother's hot body." He said laughingly as she put her head down in embarrassment at which he bent down and whispered in her ear as Matt got in the car.
"And don't worry about anything, cause Matt and I will be there for you."
"Thanks Jeff."
"Bye!" Matt yelled as he started the car.
"So..." Amy began.
"Yeah?" Corinne asked.
