Friends then Lovers part 6
As they stared into each others eyes they were completely oblivious to everything that was going on around them.
"Amy, I've known you for what seems like forever, but tonight it's like I'm truly seeing you for the first time," Matt revealed.
"I know exactly what you mean," she whispered back. Not wanting to speak to loudly, in fear that if this was dream, she would suddenly wake up and be empty and alone again. Needing to know this wasn't a dream, and to feel his arms around her Amy was just going to ask Matt to dance, but he beat her to the punch.
"Would you like to dance?"
"I would love to dance with you."
Just as they walked out on to the dance floor and Matt was taking Amy in his arms, a new song begin.
/I must be crazy now ; Maybe I dream to much ; But when I think of you ; I long to feel
your touch/
/To whisper in your ear ; Words that are old as time ; Words only you would hear; If only
you were mine/
As Amy was resting her head on Matt's shoulder, she got tears in her eyes, because this song
was hitting close to home. It was like whoever wrote it, had read her thoughts.
/I wish I could go back to the very first day I saw you ; Should've made my move when
you looked in my eyes ; 'Cause by now I know that you'd feel the way that I do ; And
I'd whisper these words as you'd lie here by my side/
/I love you, please say ; You love me too, these three words ; They could change our lives
forever ; And I promise you that we will always be together ; Till the end of time/
As Matt heard the words to the song, he clutched Amy tighter to him, because just like Amy, this song was hitting close to home. He did wish that he had said something to her about his feelings when they first met, maybe then they would be together now and saying I love you to each other.
/So today, I finally find the courage deep inside ; Just to walk right up to your door ;
But my body can't move when I finally get to it ; Just like a thousand times before/
Amy clung even tighter to Matt, because she knew exactly what it was the singer was singing about. She couldn't count how many times she had come so close to telling him how she felt, only to chicken out at the last second. To scared of being rejected.
/Then without a word he handed me this letter ; Read I hope this finds the way into your
heart, it said/
/I love you, please say ; You love me too, these three words ; They could change our lives
forever ; And I promise you that we will always be together ; Till the end of time/
Matt wished it were that simple. If only he could give her a letter explaining how he felt and asking if she felt the same way towards him.
/Well maybe I, I need a little love yeah ; And maybe I, I need a little care ; And maybe I
and maybe you, maybe you ; Oh you need somebody just to hold you ; If you do, just
reach out and I'll be there/
/I love you, please say ; You love me too ; Please say you love me too ; Till the end of
time ; These three words ; They could change our lives forever ; And I promise you that
we will always be together/
Please just listen to the words Matt, Amy thought. They are saying everything that I want to say to you, but can never find the courage to. All I need is your love and caring, and all I want to do is love and hold you. All you have to do is reach for me, and I'm there for you always.
/Oh, I love you ; Please say you love me too ; Please, please ; Say you love me too ; Till
the end of time/
Matt was still holding Amy close, but he started to pull away a bit. He needed to look in her eyes and see if she was being affected the same way by this song as he was.
/My baby ; Together, together, forever ; Till the end of time ; I love you ; I will be your
light ; Shining bright ; Shining through your eyes ; My baby/
As the last strains of the song faded away, Amy looked up into Matt's eyes, she could swear that she saw love reflecting in his eyes for her, the same way she was sure that her love was reflecting in her eyes for him.
"Amy....." Matt started to say, but she stopped him by putting her hand over his mouth. She didn't want to talk. "Shh," she whispered as she started to pull him close for a kiss. But, that kiss never came, because just before their lips touched, someone called out their names and slapped them on the shoulders.
"Yo, Matt, Amy, what are you guys doing here?" They heard the familiar voice of Andrew, call out.
Pulled out of their own private world, it took a few seconds for either of them to respond. Matt was the first to recover. "Um, nothing," he said. "We just finished dinner and felt like dancing," Matt said, finally noticing that Andrew wasn't alone. With him were, Stacey, Torrie, Lisa Marie, Nora, Jackie, Dawn Marie, Rob, Scott, Randy, Charlie, Chavo, and Peter. "What are you guys doing here?"
"Same thing you are. We were bored and wanted to get out and dance, and we heard this was a really kick ass club. So we decided to check it out. Hey, mind if we join you guys?"
"Well, we've got a really small table..........." he didn't get to finish what he was going to say because Amy jumped in. "Yeah, sure, of course you can join us. The more the merrier right," she said, finally regaining her thoughts. "But, Amy," Matt whispered and again she interrupted him. "But nothing Matt, there are friends. Why don't you go help Andrew look for a bigger table, while I go to the ladies room, okay?" She quickly went back to the table and grabbed her purse and ran to the ladies room, without giving him the chance to reply.
Once she got to the ladies room, she took a tissue out of her purse and wiped her eyes. "Damn it, why the hell did this have to happen now," she said to herself. "Why couldn't they have waited just 10 minutes more, when everything would have been perfect. We would have kissed and I could have told him how much I loved him, and I'm pretty sure he would have said it back. I sweat that I could see love in his eyes when he looked at me, when the song was over. But, then they all had to show up and ruin the moment. Damn it." Calm down, Amy, nothings ruined, things are only delayed a bit, she thought to herself. You guys are sharing room, there will be plenty of time for talking later and other stuff. Amy didn't realize just how long she was in the restroom, but when she finally made her way out she was shocked to see Matt dancing with Stacey. It looked like he was holding her, the same way he had just been holding her.
As Matt was waiting for Amy to get out of the ladies room, he did help Andrew find a bigger table, that all the wrestlers could fit at. What the hell's taking her so long, he thought. And, why did she run off so quickly like that. And why the hell did Andrew have to choose that particular moment in time to interrupt us. Just a few minutes more and we would have kissed and then I could have told her, how I felt about her, and I pretty sure she would have said she felt the same way. Because, I swear that I saw love in her eyes when she looked at me at the end of the song. Don't sweat it Matt, he thought, you guys are sharing a room, and there will be plenty of time later for you to tell her how you feel. Realizing that Amy had been gone a long time, and starting to get worried he was on his way to look for her, when Stacey pulled him out on to the dance floor, saying that no one wanted to dance with her. He was trying to get away from her, so he could go look for Amy, but that was easier said than done.
"Stupid me, I should have known it was to good to be true," she said. "I mean, who was trying to kid, thinking that he had feelings for me. As soon as I leave he right there on the dance floor with one of the blondes. His type of woman." Feeling suddenly ill, Amy had to leave the club, the only problem was that she had come with Matt, and it certainly didn't look like he wanted to be leaving any time soon. Besides, she couldn't be around him right now, it just hurt to much. Amy didn't even have her cell phone with her, because she hadn't wanted anything to ruin this date, so she had left back at the hotel, so she made her way to the bar to ask the bartender to call her cab. The cab coming said it would probably be about an hours wait, and not wanting to wait that long and watch Matt flirt and dance with the blondes, Amy was trying to figure out what to do, when she heard a familiar voice call her name.
"Amy, what's wrong? Why are you trying to get a cab?" Nora asked.
"Hey, Nora. I just don't feel good all of a sudden, and I want to go back to the hotel and lay down. But, the problem is I came with Matt, and it looks like he's not ready to leave yet."
"Well, I'll give you a ride back, if you want?"
"Are you sure? I don't want to take you away from all the fun."
"It's no problem. I wouldn't have offered, if I didn't want to leave myself. This isn't exactly my cup of tea, but I didn't want to be rude when they asked me to come. Let's go say bye to everyone and I'll grab my purse and then we can leave."
"Okay, and thanks," with that said, both women made their way back to the large group of wrestlers and said their goodbyes. By this time Matt had finally been able to get away from Stacey, and he too had made his way back to group to see if they knew where Amy was. Needless, to say he was shocked to see Amy getting ready to leave with Nora,
"Amy, what's going on? Why are leaving with Nora?" He asked concernedly.
"I'm not feeling well, all of a sudden, and Nora offered to drive me back," she said. Her voice having lost all traces of warmth from earlier. "It looked like you were having such a good time, that I didn't want to disturb you."
"Amy, what are you talking about. You wouldn't have been disturbing me. We came here together, and if your not feeling well, I want to take you back to the hotel and back sure your okay."
"Don't worry about it Matt. I'll be fine, and besides, I don't want to take you away from your little playmate. You guys looked really cozy, out there on the dance floor together."
"What the hell are you talking about? I don't have a little playmate, I came here with you."
"Save your breath, Matt. I saw you dancing with Stacey."
"No what you saw was Stacey trying to dance with me, and me trying my hardest to get away."
"I know what I say." Just then Nora came back and said she was ready to leave.
"Okay, so am I," she said, and started to turn away from Matt, but he grabbed her arm to stop her. "Amy don't leave like this. We need to talk. If you really want to go, I'll take you."
"No, we have nothing to talk about. I'm gonna go with Nora and you can stay here and have fun," with that said she pulled her arm from his grip and walked out of the club behind Nora.
