Title: It's Just A Crush
Once I finally get settled in at home I decide to turn on my cell phone. As soon as I do that, it starts beeping that I have messages. The first one is from my uncle yelling at me for leaving without telling him. I am told to call him as soon as possible. The next message is from Hunter just telling me if I need to talk to call him. The third message is from Shawn but I can hear Kevin and Steve in the background arguing over who gets to leave the message. From what I am able to hear I think I am supposed to call one of them back. And the fourth message is from Stephanie telling me I better call her right away or she is going to kick my ass when she finds me. I am not too surprised I don't have a message from Mark.
I lie on my bed and decide to call my uncle. He picks up on the first ring. " Chloe you better start explaining right now." I fluff up my pillows and realize I better start talking. "Uncle Glenn I'm sorry I cut my visit short but I needed to get away. I promise I will come visit again eventually but right now I just had to leave. Please understand." I hear him sigh on the other end. " All right I forgive you but don't ever leave in the middle of the night ever again. We all flipped out this morning. Call me soon ok?" I tell him I love him and hang up.
I call Shawn back and apologize for skipping out on him but he tells me he understands. " I don't know if anyone has told you yet but Mark stopped by this morning looking for you and when he found out you had left town he wasn't too happy. In fact, when Hunter told him maybe it was for the best that you left Mark tried to take a swing at him. Luckily Kevin got in between the two of them. We almost had WrestleMania in my living room this morning. He looked pretty pissed off Chloe. Listen Hunter wants to talk to you so I am going to hand the phone over to him ok? Take care and I will speak to you soon."
" Hey sweetheart, how are you doing?" I turn onto my side and cradle the phone to my ear. " I'm all right Hunter but do me a favor and don't fight with Mark. I don't want to have to worry about the two of you getting into a slug fest over me." I listen to Hunter chuckle over the line. " Hey he started it so he's to blame as far as I'm concerned. I just wanted to check up on you. And if it's any consolation Mark looked like a wreck this morning when he found out you were gone. I hope you come back to visit really soon, I'll miss you." I tell Hunter I will miss him too and hang up.
It's time for my next phone call. " Stephanie McMahon speaking." I start to laugh. " Hello this is Chloe Thompson." Stephanie calls me a bitch then joins in on my laughter. " So start talking girl, I want to know everything that happened." I start to blush thinking of everything that did happen. " Well first off you were right I left Texas not as pure as I came in. Stop screaming you're going to make my ears start to bleed." Stephanie starts talking so fast I can barely keep up with her. " All right do you have a few minutes? I will tell you everything. Ok well almost everything, stop whining or I will tell you nothing. Ah silence that's what I like to hear." I snuggle into my bed and figure I better get comfortable because this is going to be a very long conversation.
An hour later I finally hang up with Stephanie with promises to call her in a few days. I lie on my back and stare at the ceiling. What am I going to do if Mark doesn't call? No he will call; he just has to. I roll over on my side and go to sleep. A few hours later I wake up to the sound of my cell phone ringing. A quick glance at the clock tells me it is 1:30 in the morning. I grab my phone and answer it. " Um hello?" I pull the phone away from my ear when Mark starts to yell.
" Damn it Mark are you trying to make me go deaf. Calm down or I will hang up on your ass." When he starts to speak again his tone is much softer but I can still detect the anger behind it. " Chloe get your ass back here to Texas right now and that's an order." If he has the right answer to my question then I will be on the next plane out. " Why do you want me to come back to Texas Mark?" I hear him let out a frustrated sigh. " Isn't it obvious? I want you back here so I can put you over my knee for leaving. Did you think to wake me up before you left? I woke up to an empty bed, then when I get to Shawn's I find out you left. Then asshole Hunter tells me he thinks it's for the best that you left. I want an explanation as to why you left and I want it right now." So much for hearing him say he loves me and can't live without me.
" Mark I told you last night was a one shot deal. I wasn't attaching any strings to what happened between us. Which also means I can come and go as I please without having to deal with you waking me up in the middle of the night to yell at me. You give me one good reason why I should come back and I will." I listen to the silence on the other end of the phone for a few minutes. Then I hear Mark's dejected response. " Chloe what do you want me to say?" I close my eyes against the pain. " If you don't know then I can't tell you. When you find the answer call me but until then I don't want to hear from you. Goodbye Mark." I flip my phone shut and throw it across the room. Luckily it landed on a pile of dirty clothes. I roll over onto my side and hug my pillow to my chest. As the tears start to slide down my cheeks all I can keep thinking of is what if he never comes up with the answer I want to hear?
Review as always.
