Author's Notes- Ok, next chapter. This one was a little harder to write
than the last ones because I had no freaking clue what I wanted to do. Now
don't get worried, I don't have writer's block, I know exactly what's going
to happen for the next few chapters (and I honestly don't expect there to
be that many more) I just didn't know how to get there and introduce the
other two guys. But here's the next chapter long awaited chapter, I hope
you enjoy it.
Oh, and how could I forget to thank all of my wonderful reviewers? THANK YOU ALL! I am so happy with all of the response to this fic so please keep reviewing and I'll keep writing! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Keep 'em coming!
Ok, that's all I have to say for now.enjoy this chapter!

"Hey Trish," Chris called running up to meet his girlfriend.
"Chris! I've been looking all over for you." Trish smiled and gave him a small kiss on the cheek.
"Well, you found me." Chris couldn't help but smile at the beauty in front of him. "You did great tonight out there."
"Thanks, you too. You play a pretty good jerk for being such a nice guy." Trish smile playfully.
"Ah, I try." Chris laughed. "So my princess, what are you doing tonight?"
"Hmmm.I'm not sure, I was thinking about going back to the hotel and watching some Christmas movies. You're more than welcome to join me if you'd like."
"I'd love to," Chris said taking her bag off of her shoulder as they started to walk out of the arena. Chris pulled her close as they walked out into the snow and kissed her softly as he opened the door to her car. She smiled as she quickly got in and turned the car on as Chris quickly shut her door and ran to his own rental and followed her to the hotel.
"Heat is good." Trish laughed as they both stepped in the elevator. Chris wrapped his arms around her as they went up several floors and stepped out going to Trish's room. She opened the door and threw her bag in a corner and walked over to the thermostat in the room and quickly turned it up a couple of notches.
"That's better," she sighed as she flopped down on the bed motioning for Chris to come join her. He smiled and sat down on the fluffy bed next to her casually draping an arm around her shoulders as she reached for the remote.
"So, what are we watching?" Chris asked as Trish started to flip through the channels at a speed that he thought was not possible.
"Well, I have a list of movies I watch and I'm trying to find at least one of them." Trish concentrated on the screen in front of her as she continued to flip.
"Is this like a tradition for you?" Chris asked nonchalantly with a sly grin that she missed.
"Yeah, I guess you could say so. Every year, my family and I watch the same Christmas movies, and I figured if I can't be there to watch the movies with them, they can be here with me in spirit as I watch them." Trish smiled brightly as she stopped on a channel showing 'It's A Wonderful Life'.
"That's a really wonderful thought." Chris smiled at his girlfriend and gently pulled her closer.
"Oh this is my favorite part," Trish smiled. "Every time a bell rings and angel gets it's wings. I use to run around the house ringing every bell I could get my hands on trying to help as many angel's as possible get their wings. It tortured my family!"
"I bet you were very cute running around with your bell." Chris laughed as she went back to watching the movie and he started to formulate his plan.

"Hey Rookie," Jason called out across the hallway.
"Hey Jay, how's it going?" Maven smiled as he shook hands with the blonde man.
"Oh same old same old," he sighed. "Working like a dog, wishing I was with my family. It kind of sucks this time of year."
"I know what you mean man, but at least you have Amy out here." Maven winked at his friend.
"Yeah, she does seem to make everything a little brighter when she's around."
"Look at you, Jason Reso, who would have ever believed he would fall in love." Maven laughed as Jay blushed slightly. "I gotta say though, I envy you."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you have Amy, and even though I know you two aren't really together, I just can't help but want someone for me to be with like that." He sighed shaking his head slightly.
"Yeah, I know how that feels. So any potential ladies that you might have in mind," Jay asked.
"Well, there is this one girl, but I think she is totally out of my league."
"Now I definitely know how that feels," Jay smiled hoping it was Stacy he was thinking of, "and all I have to say is she might not be as far out of reach as you think. Go for it, what do you have to loose?"
"You're right!" Maven smiled brightly. "I'm going to do it; all ask her to the Christmas party."
"Sounds like a plan!"

"Hey Chris, can I hitch a ride with you, Devon sort of left without me." Mark Lomonica called running up to Chris.
"He left you Bubba?" Chris laughed. "How could he just leave you?"
"I don't know, he just didn't wake me up and when I did wake up he was leaving." Mark smiled. "So how about that ride?"
"Sure thing man, let's go." Mark and Chris quickly walked out to his rental and jumped in quickly turning the heat to full blast. Chris pulled the car out of the parking space cautiously and drove away.
"So, how are things going man?" Chris asked trying to start a conversation, but how to turn it to Stacy?
"Eh, you know same old, same old. Work, travel, more work." Mark sighed.
"Gets kind of old after a while huh?"
"Yeah, but, I love this life and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world." Mark looked at Chris. "You're lucky you know."
"Lucky? Me, how?" Chris asked.
"Well, you found someone, a special someone. And you found her in the business." Mark sighed again as he looked out the window. "No painful goodbyes, no complaining that you're never home. She understands your lifestyle; I guess I just wish I could find a girl like that."
"What? No girls on the roster you interested in?" Chris looked over at him hopefully.
"Well, there are a couple of girls, but come on, do you really think any of the girls on the roster would be interested in me?"
"Mark, you know the girls better than that. They all think you're great. Besides, you'll never know if you don't try. Who knows, the girl of your dreams could be in the next locker room." Chris said as he pulled into the arena parking lot.
"I guess you're right. Who knows, maybe I'll try." Mark smiled as he grabbed his bag. "Thanks a ton man! Good luck tonight!"
"You too Mark," Chris said as the two got out of the car and ran into the arena to get ready for that night's show.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
~*Later in the evening*~
"Ok Chris, what did you find out?" Jay said closing the door to their locker room.
"Well, I found out that Mark quite possibly might like her and is definitely single, and that Shane McMahon is completely gaga for Stacy." Chris smiled as he remembered his friend when he approached him. "What did you find out?"
"Well, Randy's single and wants a good relationship, but I think he's having quite a problem with keeping it in his pants, and Maven might like Stacy, or Gail since she's really the only other single girl on the roster and could be good for her."
"So what do we do now?" Chris asked looking to what had to be the brains of this operation.
"Well, we could try and talk to Stacy or find out who she might like out of the guys and go from there. Or we could just narrow it down ourselves." Jay sighed running a hand through his hair. This was getting harder than he thought it would be.
"Or, we could just wait and see what happens. I mean, I think I might have given Shane the guts to ask her out and we know he'd be good for her." Chris smiled.
"And Maven said he was going to ask this girl he liked out," Jay looked around the room pensively. "We could always just let nature take it's course."
"Sounds like a good idea to me." Chris' smile brightened. Now he could focus totally on Trish's gift.
"So any ideas for what you're going to do for Trish yet?"
"Tons, I have the whole thing planned out, I just need to get it all together and that's going to take a while." Chris played with his beard. "You wouldn't happen to know if where I could find a computer and printer that can print really really really small do you?"
"Uh, no, not really," Jason laughed. It certainly sounded like Chris had a very over the top plan.
"So what about you, any ideas for Amy?" Chris winked at his friend and Jay laughed.
"Well actually, yeah, I have a few. I just need to learn how to bake." Chris laughed at this statement and Jay whacked him upside the head when there was a small knock at the door.
"Hello, hello," a female voice cooed.
"Is everyone decent in here?" Another voice asked. The boys laughed as Chris opened the door to reveal Trish and Amy standing there warmly dressed.
"Hello ladies." Chris said flashing a grin.
"Ready to go?" Jason asked whacking him once again upside the head.
"Sure are!" Trish smiled as she wrapped an arm around Chris' waist. The boys smiled as they lead the girls out into the cold.
