Matt stormed back to the locker room and grabbed his gear. He searched around for his keys and his cell phone. He grabbed his jacket and started to walk out to his car. His match was over, why should he stay? As he was trying to find the ignition key for the car, he came across Stephanie's house key. He growled and took it off and slid it under the door of her office and continued his way to the car.
Stephanie had composed herself and was just on her way to meet up with her dad to go over the main event of the night when she stepped on something. She looked down and seen that it was her house key. Steph bent down to pick it up and began to sob. It seemed like the signal to the end.
Kurt Angle was walking down the hall to the catering area when he heard what sounded to be crying. He kept on walking and once he came up to Steph's office door, the door was open a little and he couldn't resist the urge to peak in.
There she was, sitting on the floor crying. She was holding something in her hands and crying. Kurt tapped on the door lightly and walked in. Steph looked up quickly and Kurt could see the hurt in her eyes. "Come here Steph." He said softly holding out his arms to her.
Steph stood up and held him. Kurt rubbed her back and spoke gently to her.
John (Cena) walked up to Steph's office to grab her for the meeting and all he could see was Steph in Kurt's arms. "Whoo! I knew that you guys were friends and all, but I had no idea." John said playfully as he walked in.
Steph looked up at him with tears streaming down her face, "He's married smartass." She said with a slight smile.
Kurt looked at Steph and looked over at John. "Wait a minute, I just got done telling you about how I got my hand stuck inside a pickle jar and couldn't get it off so I walked around like that till Karen got home, and I get nothing. BUT he comes in here and attempts to make a joke and you smile? I'm losing my touch." Kurt said with a fake sniffle.
Steph hugged Kurt, "Oh Kurt, you know I still love you."
John smiled. He was glad that she smiled for him. All he could think of was how sad Steph seemed with Matt. There was always something that came up that made her cry. "Are you still coming to the meeting?"
Steph nodded, "Yeah. I'm ready." She said wiping her tears.
"How about this, after the show, I take you out to dinner and I'll put a smile on that pretty face of yours." John said to her as she grabbed her clipboard.
At first Steph's brain stated to say no, but then she realized she had no one else to go home to. "Sure, that sounds good." Steph found herself saying.
"Great. Let's go before your dad yells at us." John said to her.
Kurt watched the two walk off and he couldn't help but notice the change in Steph's demeanor when John arrived. It was like a weight was lifted off of her shoulders. "Hmmm. I wonder" Kurt began pondering the two as he walked away.
~*~*~**~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~* Matt arrived at his house that night and knew that he had a lot of time to make up with everyone. Part of him was mad and upset with Steph, but the other half was sad. He loved her, no matter what anybody said. He loved her for the woman she was, not the woman everyone perceived her to be. He walked into the living room, and found a picture of him and Steph, they were sitting in a tree kissing, and Jeff had engraved the frame "Matt and Steph sitting in a tree..K I S S I N G. Matt picked it up and felt the tears burning his eyes. He grew upset and flipped it upside down. "YOU wanted a break Stephanie, it's all yours." He said angrily as he walked to his bedroom.
Matt took a shower to calm down, and as he was drying off, he heard his cell phone ringing. He ran down the stairs to grab it. He looked at the caller id and it was Jeff., "What's up?" Matt answered.
"Dude are you home yet?" Jeff asked.
"Yup, and I'm home for good." Matt replied with a little uncertainty in his voice.
"You got fired too?" Jeff asked confused.
"No, but Steph and I are taking a break." Matt replied. "We've been fighting a lot lately, and the sex talk was the last straw."
"Matt, I'm so sorry. I feel totally responsible." Jeff said feeling bad. He just meant to poke some fun, he didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings.
"Don't worry about it. She's totally overreacting to that." Matt said trying to sound confidant. "So what's going on?" He asked changing the subject.
"There's a party in the field, and Amy wants to go, but her car is in the shop, do you think that you could pick her up and bring her out here?" Jeff asked hopefully.
"What if I didn't want to come?" Matt asked playfully.
"Well.ummm.I would ask if you could pick Amy up and I would bring her home tomorrow in time for your movie marathon." Jeff replied.
"Yes I'll come, and tell Amy yes I'll pick her up. I haven't seen her in awhile." Matt replied.
"Alright, see ya tonight bro. And since you're newly single, maybe getting all dressed up and having a fun night out will help ya to feel better." Jeff said as he hung up.
Matt decided to save his pride. He was not about to admit the areas he was wrong in. He decided he was going to suck it up, have a few too many drinks and have a good time. He headed to his room and took out one of his favorite outfits and pulled his hair back into a ponytail and headed off to Amy's house.
MEANWHILE.
Amy was running around her house trying to figure out what to wear. She hadn't seen Matt in over a month and she didn't want to disappoint. Even though she had broken it off with him a long time ago, her heart still belonged to him. The whole reason she had broken it off with him back then was because he was headed to the WWE and she was on the road with ECW and she had fallen too hard too fast and it scared her. They still had a special connection to this day.
Amy heard her phone ringing again. She knew that Jeff was trying to find her a ride to his party. "Yo bro whadda ya know?" She said playfully.
"Well, let's just say that I know a tall, dark and handsome man who I've sent over to pick you up and make sure that you have a good time tonight." Jeff said smoothly.
"Jeffy I love you!" Amy exclaimed.
"Yup, I know." Jeff said laughing. "Be ready soon."
"I will. See ya." Amy said hanging up. She ran over to her closet and pulled out a pair of carpenter jeans that had holes in the knees, a pair of doc martins and a tighter-fitting black sweater. She ran to the bathroom and did her hair and make up. Just as she was grabbing her wallet the doorbell rang.
She headed downstairs and opened the door and the sight of him took her breath away. His twinkling eyes, his dark wavy hair, and that smile that could charm the boots off of anyone. "Hey there hottie." She said playfully.
"Hey diva. You look great." Matt said giving her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Are you all set?"
"Yup, let's go." Amy said locking the door.
As they were driving to Jeff's, Matt went ahead and told Amy about him and Steph's break up and Amy told him about how she had been on a few failed dates lately and decided just to give up for awhile.
They pulled into the driveway and Matt looked at Amy, "Let the party begin!" He exclaimed as they got out of the car and headed into the field.
**Well, well. What's going to happen when John and Steph go out? And how much partying will Matt be doing? We'll see what happens! Please continue to read and review!**
