Lost, Confused, Unkind, (Sequel To "Freaked")

Chapter 6

Before I knew where I was, I was standing in a huge arena! It was empty apart from a 20 or so guys running light checks & testing microphones. Looking up at the thousands of empty seats it was overwhelming to think that in a few hours they would be a person in everyone of them!!
"Come on! I'll have to find my locker room & dump my stuff!" Matt said, snapping me back to reality when he tapped me on the shoulder!
We walked down a long corridor bustling with people all saying hello to Matt as they passed! Finally Matt found the door he was looking for & we went inside a small room away from all the mayhem! He dumped his bag on the bench & smiled. "Home away from home!"
"It's erm....very nice!" I smiled.
"No it isn't!" Matt laughed as he rummaged in his bag. "So what do you think to my exciting life so far?" He sniggered.
"Very hectic! Not like I imagined at all really!" he smiled & nodded his head. "It's still fun though!"
"Yeah I guess it is! Mind if I leave you for 5 minutes while I take a shower?"
"No go ahead! I'll be ok!"
"Well here's a pass just incase anyone questions you being here! Put it around your neck!" He placed the pass that was attatched to a lace over my head & kissed me. "Now go for your life! Have a wander around...if you get lost just ask someone to come find me ok?"
"Sure thing! I'll be ok! Go get your shower!" He kissed me one more time & then he went into the bathroom. I decided to be brave & venture out into the chaos!
I wandered around for a while until; I finally found the main arena again! I sat in one of the empty seats & watched, fascinated as the stage appeared in front of my eyes in bits & pieces! It was amazing to see how it was all put together before the cameras were rolling! My thoughts were interrupted by a guy shouting into his cell phone from behind me!
"Well get it sorted out! I don't care how you do it, just make sure its done before 6pm ok?" he switched off his phone & sat down, sighing & putting his head in his hands.
"Rough day?" I asked.
He looked up "You guessed huh?" he rolled his eyes.
"Hmm the sweat on your brow gave it away!
He laughed and seemed to relax a little. "You work for us?"
"What? Oh no! Can't you tell? I'm way to calm to be employed by the WWE!" I laughed & he did the same & nodded, "I'm here with matt hardy, just a guest!"
"Matt's here?" I nodded. "Oh thank you god!!" He raised his hands to the sky & I giggled. "At least something is going right today!! He's al ife saver! Sorry I had to drag him back here at such short notice!"
"Ah right! You must be Shane right?"
"That's right!"
"I finally get to meet the slave driver!" I laughed, "I'm matt's friend, Bec!" I held out my hand.
"Nice to meet you Bec! And don't believe anything he's told you about me cause Im not that bad!!" he grinned. "So what do you do for a living?"
"Oh I'm just a nanny! No biggie!"
"Just a nanny|? Man from my experience with kids I'd say you have a tougher job than I do!!"
"Naah! It's great!! I love kids!"
"Really? Well when me & my wife have kids I'll be sure to look you up!" He grinned. "Yeah! You do that!"
"HEY! That doesn't go there!!" he shouted at a bunch of guys with a part of the set! "Excuse me Bec I'll see you later!" He walked away, "WHO TOLD YOU TO PUT THAT THERE?" I heard him shout as he walked towards them!
"Man is Shane flipping out again!?" Said a voice from behind me. "He'll have a heart attack before he's forty at this rate! Hi I'm Adam!"
"Oh hi! Edge right?"
"You got it!"
"Well I like to watch Smackdown, one of my friends is a wrestler here!"
"Cool! Is this your first show?" I've never seen you around here before?"
"Yeah…..it's pretty awesome first hand!"
"Ah you'll get used to it in time!" He smiled.
"I'm Bec by the way!" I held out my hand & he shook it. "I'll have to come to live shows mor…." I was distracted when out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw someone I knew. I froze! But, it couldn't be….there was no way! I turned around slowly but there was no one there! I scanned the mass of people that were running around doing various jobs but I couldn't see anyone familiar. A chill passed through me.
"Bec? Are you ok?"
I shook myself back to reality, "Y…yes I'm erm…" my eyes scanned the arena agin.
"Can I get you anything? Glass of water maybe or…."
"NO no really I'm fine! I just thought I'd um….seen a ghost!" I forced a smile but I must have been as white as a sheet! "Erm….Adam can you help me find Matt please? I wouldn't know where to start!"
"Sure thing!" He said, getting to his feet & offering his hand to pull me out of my seat. "So Matt is your friend huh?" I nodded, still frantically looking for the face I thought I'd seen. "ok well come on then let's go & find matt!
