The teams were Tawnie, Shawn and Triple H vs. Kurt and Edge. They set up end zones on each end of Kurt's monstrous yard. Shawn was the 1st to score a touch down. He did a Ric Flair strut after wards.
The action continued on and on. Trips intercepted a pass from Edge to Kurt. He tossed it to Tawnie; she took off towards the end zone. She could see Kurt running towards her, ready to tackle as she approached him. Tawnie tossed the ball up behind her to Shawn who was perfectly station for the pass as she smacked into the ground. Shawn kept running. Instead of getting up off the ground and running after Shawn, Kurt lay over Tawnie, perched up on his arms underneath she lay pinned to the ground from the last tackle. Shawn slowed down when he realized he wasn't being chases and turned to see what Edge and Trips were looking at.
Kurt lie over Tawnie, staring into her eyes, finding himself lost in this moment, and in such an awkward position. She stared back up at him searching for something in his eyes.something to grasp.when.
.They heard the doorbell ring."PIZZA!" Shawn yelled snapping Kurt back into reality. He got up off the ground, offering Tawnie a hand and pulling her up as well. He followed behind Shawn into the house.
Tawnie just stood in the yard confused and in awe as to what had just happened. Triple H elbowed her in the side as he walked past.
"Nice Play there Tawn."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Pizza~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tawnie grabbed plates and glasses out of the cupboards and Shawn skipped to the table enthusiastically placing the pizza down.
Edge saw the picture of them from summer of '97 sitting on the counter.
"What a great summer that was." He said aloud as everyone turned to glance at the picture.
"Best damn summer of my life." Said Tawnie.
The rest of the table, reminiscing, nodded in agreement.
That was the summer that changed all of their lives forever. It was the summer of dreams. They finally broke into the wrestling business and made a name for each of them selves. Life on the road together was great, and it was even better when they could come home and have moments like this.
"Remember when Hunter almost drove us off that cliff in Arizona." Shawn said laughing out loud.
"Hey it got us there didn't it?" Triple H said pointing at the picture.
They carried on with their conversation, while Tawniest mind wondered back to what had occurred out side.
Jeez I wonder what that was all about. She thought. She glanced at Kurt, returning her gaze; he smiled sheepishly and then nervously looked down at his plate of food.
He wasn't much into the conversation either, even though Edge, Trips and Shawn were laughing loud enough to be heard all the way IN Arizona.
He must be embarrassed, she thought. She must think I'm a jerk, he pondered.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Later~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Lets watch a movie!" Edge said running down Kurt's stairs to the living room.
Everyone soon followed, Tawnie being her pokey self was last down stairs. The last spot on the couch was next to Kurt. Even though she would have preferred to have been miles away on the other end of the couch right now, something inside her made her want to sit next to him, to curl up and have him hold her.
This wasn't the first time either. She sometimes got this feeling with Kurt. the butterflies. She constantly had to remind herself that she was just a friend, Just one of the guys.
It frustrated the hell out of her too. This horrible predicament she was in. Half reluctantly, she sat down next to him and grabbed the pillow next to her, holding on to it tightly. Some time through the movie, she relaxed a bit when Kurt leaned back and placed his arm on the couch behind and above her head.
Tired, or maybe just pretending to be, Tawnie rested her head on his shoulder. Was he flirting with her? Was all she could think about as she drifted away and felt Kurt's arm around her shoulder, supporting her.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The movie ended and the guys got up to head home.
"Aw, Princess fell asleep." Shawn said stretching as he exhaled.
"You want me to drive Homie G home?" Triple H asked.
"Oh.ah.um. That's okay Trips, wouldn't wanna wake her you know. Its out of your way anyway." Kurt replied.
"You sure, I could always take her home too, its right on the way." Shawn stated.
"Na, it'll be fine. I'll just plop her upstairs in the spare bedroom."
"Alright, slick." Shawn replied.
"See ya'll later." Kurt said as they walked upstairs to go.
Kurt valiantly carried Tawnie up the stairs and gently set her under the covers of his spare bed. He sat down next to her for a moment and the pushed a lock of her blond hair behind her ear. Slowly he rose, not to wake her and went off to his own bedroom.
