Mark drove down the highway to the arena hoping to see Abby. He was worried but he was also mad. He could really wring her neck for worrying him. He had driven about 20 minutes when he spotted her walking. He pulled the car to the side of the road.
Abby seen Mark's car pull up and was pretty happy actually. It was pouring down rain and she was soaked and cold. She opened the passenger door and got in.
"Ya stubborn hard headed brat, ya couldn't get a ride could ya, had to prove how tough ya are and walk in the pouring down rain, probably get sick, what the hell is wrong with ya?" Mark barked at her.
"Well excuse me, you're the one who left me with no ride, for your information I fell asleep and when I woke up everyone had left, I decided the walk would do me good and it started to rain, I don't control the weather." Abby snapped back at him.
Mark started the car.
"I tried to call ya on the two way why didn't you answer?" Mark asked.
"I forgot to charge it." Abby said in a small voice.
"What miss high and mighty agent made a mistake?" Mark asked sarcastically.
"Yes Mark I made a mistake, I'm human you know." Abby snapped.
"Could have fooled me." Mark muttered.
Abby sat there with her arms crossed. She would rather walk in the rain than listen to his lecture.
Mark looked at her she was soaked. She looked like a drowned rat. Damn little fool Mark thought.
The rest of the ride was silent back to the hotel. Mark parked the car and they got out and headed upstairs.
Mark opened the door and let Abby in and followed her.
Glen jumped up when he seen her.
"Are you okay; you looked like a drowned rat." Glen said.
"I found her walking back in the rain." Mark said pulling his jacket off.
"Young lady what the hell was you thinking?" Glen asked.
Before Mark could stop him Glen had grabbed her and whacked her on her butt.
Mark took a step back and waited for Glen to go flying against the wall or something.
"Abby don't ever do something like that again, something bad could have happened to you." Glen said.
Mark watched in shock as Abby looked up at Glen.
"I'm sorry Glen; I didn't mean to worry you." Abby said.
Glen pulled her into a hug.
"Its okay sweetie, you're safe now that's all that counts. You ever pull that again though, I'll paddle your butt good." Glen said.
Abby hugged him back.
"Okay Mark go run this girl a hot bath." Glen said.
Mark was still in shock that Abby hadn't decked Glen.
Mark went into the bathroom and Glen sat down and pulled Abby down beside him.
"What did Tori say to you?" Glen asked.
"That Mark had been meeting her after there script meeting and they were fucking." Abby said.
"That's not true Abby, I'm always there. Mark and me always leave right afterwards." Glenn said.
"Don't believe what that bimbo tells you." Glen said.
"I guess I kind of overreacted." Abby said.
"Well when you're in love you tend to do that." Glen said.
Abby looked at Glen he was so sweet.
Mark had been listening at the door. He was going to have a long talk with Tori and tell her to stay away from him and Abby.
"Glen are you married?" Abby asked.
"No, don't have a girlfriend either; I have real bad luck with women." Glen said laughing.
"I don't know why you're real sweet." Abby said.
"Well thank you honey, I wish I had met you before Mark did." Glen said teasing her.
Abby blushed and Glen smiled and hugged her.
"Now go on and get your bath." Glen said.
Mark had overheard there little exchange and he wasn't happy at all. Was Abby attracted to Glen, sure sounded that way. The thought mad him mad as hell, why he didn't know. Hell she was a free agent and Glen seemed to know how to handle her. Abby passed him on the way into the bathroom and glared at him. Mark sighed, there was no hope for the two of them.
Glen waited till the bathroom door was closed.
"Buddy you better try to make this marriage work or its going to end up just like your others." Glen said.
"I know Glen; we just clash a lot, different temperaments I guess." Mark said.
"Well the way you walked off with Tori and left her there, I don't blame her for being mad." Glen said.
Mark didn't say anything, how could he explain anything to Glen, when Glen thought they were actually married.
"If I had smacked her butt like you did she would have tried to kill me, I thought for sure she was going to deck you." Mark said shaking his head.
Glen just laughed.
"I can't see that sweet little thing decking anyone." Glen said.
Mark did laugh then.
"Man you don't know the real Abby." Mark said.
"Listen go in the bathroom and talk to her, wash her back or something, then make love to her, everything will be fine." Glen said.
Glen got up.
"I got to go. You two try to work this out." Glen said.
Mark nodded.
"I'll see ya tomorrow." Mark said.
"Okay. Tell Abby I said goodnight." Glen said and left.
Mark sat there thinking. He had been wrong to leave her at the arena, he felt bad about that. He decided he would go apologize. He just hoped she didn't kick him again.
