Katlyn sat and watched some of the guys practice in the ring. She was really enjoying herself. Trish had showed her around and introduced her to a ton of people. She just hoped she could remember them all.
"Hey there."
Katlyn turned and saw a huge man standing there. He had long blonde hair and was built like a god.
"Hi." Katlyn said.
"I'm Paul and who might you be, pretty lady?" Paul asked smiling.
"I'm Katlyn O'Shannon." Katlyn said.
Paul sat down beside her.
"Nice to meet you, I'm a wrestler, Triple H is what I go by, and what do you do are you new?" Paul asked.
"No, I'm traveling with my boyfriend." Katlyn said.
"Oh god, not a boyfriend, I'm crushed." Paul said clutching his chest.
Katlyn started laughing. She liked him immediately.
"Wow you have a beautiful smile." Paul said.
"Thank you." Katlyn said smiling.
"So who's your boyfriend?" Paul asked.
"Mark Callaway." Katlyn said.
"Mmm you don't seem like his usual type." Paul said.
"What's his type?" Katlyn asked.
"Mouthy blonde bimbos." Paul said laughing.
"Well not anymore." Katlyn said.
"Have you had dinner?" Paul asked.
"No, I was going to head back to Mark's dressing room in a minute." Katlyn said.
"Come with me and grab a bite to eat." Paul said.
"No I really shouldn't, Mark's expecting me back, and in fact I'm already running late." Katlyn said.
Paul looked at her. He knew Mark pretty well, had for years. He knew the kind if demands Mark made on a relationship and wondered if this little girl was up to them.
"Okay, maybe I can by you dinner in the next town." Paul said.
"Maybe." Katlyn said knowing that wasn't likely to happen, she was sure Mark wouldn't like her having dinner with a man as handsome as this.
Trish came over.
"Paul she's taken so you better back off." Trish said joking.
Paul stood up.
"Yea I know, she belongs to Mark." Paul said grinning.
Katlyn stood up angry.
"I don't belong to anyone." She said and stormed off.
"Well I can see she didn't like that statement." Trish said.
"Hmm well, she's in a relationship with Mark, she better get used to it." Paul said.
"God everybody acts like Mark is some Neanderthal dragging women around by the hair, Mark's a good guy." Trish said.
"I never said he wasn't, Mark's a great guy and a good friend, but then I don't have to date him and neither do you. Think about that one, there must be a reason you never dated him or tried to hook up with him if you think he's such a great guy." Paul said.
"We just never felt that way about each other. Besides I'm not suited to him. But Katy may be." Trish said.
"Maybe, only time will tell." Paul said.
Trish stared at Paul. She hoped he wasn't going to do anything stupid like take an interest in Katy. He and Mark might be friends but she had the feeling Mark was in love with Katy and he wouldn't hesitate to hurt some one that tried to come between them.
Katyln got back to Mark's dressing room and opened the door. Mark was setting on the couch going over his script for tonight. He looked up and smiled.
"Have fun?" he asked.
"Yea, Trish introduced me to a ton of people and I watched some of the guys practice in the ring. I met one of your friends too, his name is Paul, and he plays Triple H." Katlyn said.
Mark smiled at her enthusiasm.
"Come here." Mark said.
Katlyn went over to Mark and he pulled her on his lap. He kissed her lips slowly and then pulled back.
"I'm glad you had fun. I hope you like the traveling, were like one big family here. Paul's a great guy." Mark said.
"Yes he was very nice, I like him." Katlyn said.
"How about we go get some dinner before the show?" Mark asked.
"Okay." Katlyn said.
Mark sat her on the couch and went to get ready.
Katlyn sank back on the cushions and couldn't keep her thoughts away from what Paul had said. She didn't want to be thought of as someone's property, not even Mark's. She wasn't going to put up with that.
"Ready Little girl?" Mark asked.
"Yes." Katlyn said standing up.
Mark took her hand and she followed him out the door. Katlyn just hoped things worked out between her and Mark, she loved him dearly but she still had her doubts if she could be the kind of woman Mark wanted.
