..........he.............he................. ***
The show's over, every wrestler has gone to their own hotel. Jay, Adam and Kate is in their's, discussing that night. A knock, and in comes Torrie.
"Hey guys." she greets, and goes over and gives Adam a kiss. Kate could see Jay looking on in jealousy, Jay liked Torrie before Adam had, Kate knows this by looking at Jay's expression every time Torrie is with Adam. His little notebook that he keeps under his bed is helpful as well.
"I came here to ask if Kate would like to go out to this really nice club with us." she continued.
"Us? Who's us?" Adam asked.
"Me and some divas." Torrie shrugged. (A/N: I haven't really given Kate any friends. I just noticed. Not that I'm gonna turn her into a social butterfly or anything.)
"Keep an eye on her. Kate, be back before 12." said Jay.
"Yes mother." said Kate dully. "You know, I'm not a kid anymore."
"You might wanna change into something a bit more....clubish." said Torrie.
"I'll see what I have." Kate wasn't exactly excited to be going out, because she was hoping to be able to go to bed early. But, she needed to do something different.
Kate went in, looked at her clothes. One look told her she had nothing suitable to wear. She wasn't into dressing up.
"Er. Well. I don't have anything to wear, so you'll just have to go on without me." said Kate.
"You are getting out. And I'm going to let you borrow some clothes." Torrie grabbed Kate's hand and went out the door, both of them saying a brief 'bye' to Jay and Adam.
Torrie went to the next floor up and opened her room. Jaqueline, Trish and Stacy were in there. *joy, Stacy's here.* Thought Kate uninthusiastically.
"You look about Stacy's size. Hey Stace, do you have anything Kate can wear?" Torrie asked. Stacy raised an eyebrow at Torrie. "Oh! Lemme guess, you guys are still enemies? Well, you should both apologize to each other. Because I know for a fact that you two are both good people. And you'll make good friends."
Kate looked at Stacy. Stacy looked at Kate.
*Kate's P.O.V*
What is she crazy? I'm not apologizing unless she does! She was rude to me ever since I've gotten here. We just stared at each other, each expecting the other to apologize first. Torrie coughed, loudly, as in trying to get our attention. I sighed, and brought my hand out to shake hers in agreement. She looked at my hand, then shook it.
"I know what you must think. I'm sorry for how I acted. Let's put the past behind us?" Stacy asked.
"Sure. Why the hell not." I smiled.
"Good, now Stacy, do you have something Kate can wear. I'm afraid our friend here doesn't have a single thing to wear." said Torrie.
Stacy nodded and went to the closet, skimmed through it, and pulled out a red halter top and leather pants. She also gave me a fake diamond belt, which I thought was really nice of her since we just became friends.
"You need shoes. What size do you wear?" Torrie asked.
"8 1/2" I told her.
"Here, I'll lend you my black leather boots." Torrie had the same size. I went into the bathroom and changed. Thank god I brought a jacket, because the back of my halter top felt really airy. Slight breeze from the window made me feel cold. I hope to god no one I know sees me with this on.
"Her hair." said Trish. "It should be put up. Let me do it."
"Here's a brush. We'll use her hair band since it's black." Torrie tossed Trish a brush. I sat next to Trish and she put my hair up in a high messy bun in a matter of seconds.
"Now we are all ready to go." cheered Jacqueline. (No idea how to spell her name)
We took a taxi, just in case we all got drunk, even though I assured them that I didn't drink. But they all said: "suuure. when you're in this company, it'll drive you to drink." 20 minutes later, we arrived at a fancy and popular looking club because people were lined up and expensive cars were coming to the front of the building that was surrounded by flashing blue lights. We all got out, and walked to the front of the line, where the bouncer guy let us in because Trish handed him a couple of hundred dollar bills and gave him a flirtatious smile.
When we walked in, a man in a suit with a name tag asked us for our coats. I gave him my coat because it was hotter than hell in there because all the people's body heat. We went up to the bar, guys immediatly showed us attention. Uncomfterble. The bartender asked us what we would like to drink.
"2 Berry wine coolers for Torrie and Stacy. 2 martinis for me and Trish. And Kate would like...." asked Jaqueline.
"I told you, I don't drink. So give me a Pepsi." the bartender looked at me confused. Apparently 99.9% of the people came here had alchohal. But he went to get the drinks anyway, while we all sat on the stools.
"wow. You were serious." said Trish. "that's an admirable thing not to be drinking. I should quit."
"My parents used to drink. Believe me, after you've seen them drunk and how angry they get, you would choose not to drink also." I said.
The guy came back, and gave us the drinks for free. Bet he wouldn't have given me the drink for free if I wasn't dressed like this...pig. As we were chatting away, a guy came up to Torrie and asked her to dance. Torrie politley refused, telling him she had a boyfriend. So he asked Trish to dance instead. Trish said yes, and they went off to dance somewhere.
"Hey. There's been rumors, but I'm going to ask you if it's true. Are you and Jeff....a couple?" asked Jaqueline.
"Nope. I think the story line is getting to everyone's heads. We're just friends." I confirmed.
Jaqueline nodded, but I can tell she didn't believe me.
"So, have you heard from Lita lately?" asked Torrie, starting another conversation.
"Not really. But she'll be back in a couple months, I guess." I say.
"Too bad Lita's with Matt. Or else I'd take him." Stacy sighed.
I was surprised at hearing this.
"You have got to get on the dance floor!" Trish said, coming back.
Torrie, Stacy and Jaqueline got up.
"Are you coming?" Stacy asked.
"No. I don't dance." Lately, saying all these 'no's', is making me sound like a very boring person.
"You must do something! That's what you go to a club for." said Jaqueline.
"Nah, it's okay. I'll stay here and watch your stuff. I also have some phone calls to make." I lied.
"Your loss, girlie." said Trish. Torrie looked at me one more time to see if I wanted to go, but I shook my hand and the three dissapeared through the crowd.
I knew I should have stayed home. I could have sat in bed, watched movies, ordered room service, or finish my book. But no, I was foolishly dragged into this. As I was debating with myself, someone came up to me. I looked up and saw Jeff. Is it just me, or do I seem to be running into him a lot?
"Hey. I didn't know you went to clubs." said Jeff, taking a seat next to me.
"I don't. My fellow divas dragged me into this." I told him. "What are you doing here? I didn't think you liked clubs either."
"I don't. But a few of the guys found out some divas were going to be here, and they dragged me into it. Similar predicament as you're in, I guess."
"God, this is boring."
"I feel the same way. Do you wanna leave? We could do something else. I'd rather not be bored."
"Sure. Let me do something real quick." I got up and took Trish, Torrie, Stacy and Jaqueline's purse and put it on the counter.
"bartender, do me a favor? Could you watch these purses until my friends get back? And could you tell them I wasn't feeling well so I went home?" I asked him.
"If I do this.....I'll need money to help me remember what I'm supposed to do." he held out his hand. He's a pig and a jerk.
I handed him a 50, and Jeff and I left the club. Jeff called a taxi.
"What do you want to do? Personally, I'm kind of hungry." he said.
"Yeah! Let's eat. All I've had was a soda." I tapped the taxi driver on the shoulder and asked him where a good place to eat italian food was. He said he'd take us there....for 25 dollars more. Hesitantly, I got out my wallet, but Jeff payed for it.
*At the Restraunt*
We got a table for two. The waiter came up to us.
"Ah, young love." he smiled.
"Sorry, we're just friends." I said. GOD! How many times are people going to ask presume this?!
He winked at us, disbelieving. Jeff looked away in embarresment.
"Sorry, but I'm really hungry. So I'll have a spaghetti with meat sauce. You, Jeff?" I asked.
"Chicken Fetticini. Extra Alfredo." He said.
And finally the waiter left us alone.
"Everyone thinks we're a couple."I sighed. "It gets on my nerves. Just an hour ago, I found out there was rumors about us."
"I know. I've heard them to. We should do something about it." Jeff suggested. I looked at him confused.
*Jeff's P.O.V*
I'm nervous. My palms are sweaty. But I've got to do this. I can't live like this anymore.
"What do you suggest?" she asked. She didn't get it, which is making me harder to say this.
"Kate, I think we can stop these rumors....if you really were....my girlfriend. So do you think you could date a guy like me?" I blurted out.
Her face turned to shock. And I'm praying that I won't be let down again.
