Title: How Love Works
Chapter 5: Finding Out
Paul snapped out of his trance when he had an idea. He had to find Adam Copeland. So he ran off to the men's locker room.
"Hey man. Why are you in such a hurry? Kevin Nash asked his friend Paul.
"Have you seen Adam? I need to talk to him before Stephanie or Randy leaves." Paul responded.
"You just about missed him. He left like two minutes ago." Kevin said then continued. "Why do you need to talk to him before Steph or Randy leaves?"
"I just do o.k." Paul said getting annoyed at Kevin.
"Sorry man. Oh look Adam just walked in." Kevin said pointing to Adam.
Paul turned around and saw that Adam had just walked in.
"Hey Adam can I talk to you alone? Asked Paul.
"Yeah sure. What do you need?" Adam asked Paul while walking into an empty locker room.
"I need a favor from you." Paul said sounding desperate.
"Are you embarrassed to ask Amy out?" Adam said with a sly smile then continued. "I can ask her for you?"
"No I need you to find out what movie and what restaurant Randy and Steph are going to tomorrow night." Paul said
"O.k. but why do you want to know where there going?" Adam asked. Then joking he said, "It's not like you like Steph."
Paul's face turned a bright red. When Adam saw Paul's face he knew Paul liked Stephanie.
"Oh sorry man. Sure I'll do it. No need to explain why." Adam said getting up ready to leave. "I'll go find Steph then come tell you where their going.
"Thanks man. I knew I could count on you." Paul said.
Adam walked out the empty locker room in search of Randy or Steph. Adam came along the women's locker room. He raised hi hand to knock when the door opened.
"Oh hi Adam." Steph said
"Hey Steph." Adam said then continued. "Can we talk?"
"I'm a bit busy. I've got to get to a meeting. I'll talk to you after the meeting ok?" Stephanie told Adam.
"O.k. I'll meet you later on." Adam said.
"I'll meet you outside the men's locker room in an hour." Stephanie said while walking off.
Stephanie just got out of her meeting and she made her way to the men's locker room. Stephanie finally got there and knocked.
Paul answered the door only wearing a towel. He had just got out of the shower and he was still dripping.
"Hey Steph. How may I help you?" Paul asked.
"Uhhh…" is all that got out of Steph's mouth. She was staring at him. 'I'd love to be that towel right now.' Steph thought.
"Earth to Steph!" Paul said waving his hand in her face.
"What?" Steph asked angrily for being knocked out of her thoughts.
"What do you want?" Paul asked.
"Oh yeah…" Steph suddenly remembered why she was here. "Is Adam here?"
"No he left a minute ago; he should be back in a second. You can wait in here if you want." Paul said while holding the door open so Steph could come in.
"What about the other guys?" Steph asked.
"Their gone, they ditched me. It's just me." Paul said.
"O.k. then. I don't see a problem with that." Steph said with a small smile.
"I'll be a second. I'm going to change into my wrestling gear." Paul said while walking back into the shower to change.
'Damn it you could have stayed like that.' Steph thought.
A minute later Paul walks out of the shower wearing his black wrestling trunks. He went and sat next to Steph.
'Damn you're hot in everything' another thought Stephanie couldn't keep out of her mind.
"So what do you need Adam for?" Paul asked knowingly while he put his knee pads on.
"He needed to talk and I said I'd meet him here." Steph responded.
"Oh." Was all Paul said while tying up his boots.
"Look now that I'm sitting here with you I wanted to say sorry for what I did when you and Randy were practicing." Steph apologized.
"That's ok. I'm cool." Paul lied. He was fine with her talking to him but when she asked him out and kissed him that tore Paul's heart.
"So no hard feelings?" Steph asked then said, "Are we still friends?"
"Yeah were still friends and no hard feelings. Were cool." Paul said.
Just after Paul said that Adam walked in. Steph looked towards the door and saw Adam come in with Jason Reso and Chris Jericho.
"Hey Steph can we talk now?" Adam asked.
"Yeah come on lets go." Steph said while waving to the other guys.
"So what did you need to talk about?" Steph asked Adam.
"Well I heard rumors that you and Randy are going out tomorrow night. Is it true?" Adam asked Steph.
"Yeah why?" Steph asked.
"I just wanted to say congratulations." Adam said.
"Thank you Adam." Steph said as she hugged him.
"So what are your guy's plans?" Adam asked.
"Well he is taking me to this restaurant called Tony's, and then we are going to the Regal Cinemas to see the movie Freddy VS. Jason." Steph said.
"Oh that's cool. Well Steph hate to leave so soon, but I promised the guys I'd be back in five minutes." Adam said.
"Ok see you around." Steph said as Adam ran to the men's locker room.
Adam ran right in the men's locker room and s aw Paul talking with Kevin and Shawn.
"Paul I have to talk to you." Adam said.
"Ok man." Paul said and followed Adam out the door.
Adam and Paul went into an empty locker room and Adam told Paul where Randy was taking Steph. Paul left the room in search of Amy to ask her out tomorrow night.
