Obsession

part 1

She sits in the room, dark except for the light from the small TV over in the corner. Channel hopping again, over and over. Simpsons Re-runs, life couldnt get any lower. She puts her head onto the cusion and drifted off away from all of this, to a better place.

Cheers and screaming, she opens her eyes and blinks, "What the...?" She sits up and turns the TV down as she rubs the sleep from her eyes and stretches in the rat hole she calls home. She stares at the TV unsure of what she was seeing....until......

He steps into camera shot, a vision, a GOD! She sits on the edge of the couch and slams the remote control when the TV wont go any louder. "Fucking Batteries!" She mutters under her breath and stands up and goes to the button on the TV. Volume......reveals a voice so smooth she couldnt move back to her seat. A voice on the box, sliding into her ears, into her brain, catching her breath. What the hell was this show anyway? She slumps to her knees 6 inches away from the vision in light infront of her and stares, mouth open.....she feels drawn to it, to him and reaches out, touching the smooth contours of his face with her finger tips, feeling static, feeling a connection from some far away place. wnating, needing more. She turns up the volume again, that voice...that face.....the telephone rings and she slowly gets up without taking her eyes away from the screen.

"Ye...." her voice trails off still absorbed in the square of light in the corner.

"It's me."

"What's on channel 9?"

"sorry?"

"Turn on your TV and tell me what the show is on channel 9 now do it!"

"Ok ok..." Silence..."That is the Wrestling."

"The what?"

"Wrestling, the WWE the one I have been trying to get you to watch for the last 7 months only you thought it too stupid and unrealistic to bother with." Says the friend on the line.

"That guy! Who is that guy....the guy in the blue jersey...?"

"John Cena."

"Wow."

"You like?"

"I love." she stops herself, 'I ah, yes I like."

"Ok so you want this ticket for tomorrow night then?"

"What?"

"What planet are you on tonight?"

"Im here."

*Laughter* "Ok you want to come and see Smackdown with me tomorrow night?"

"Y...yes, he.....that guy, John....will be there?"

"He will be yes."

"Then Im comming." she puts the phone down absentmindedly and wanders back to the screen as they start to fight, she finds herself screaming for him to win. He wins. she gets an adrenaline rush like nothing she ever felt before.
