LATER THAT NIGHT.
John went to wrestle his match, and Steph headed to Vince's office. When they were at the meeting, he could tell that something was wrong, so he asked Steph for a "private" meeting.
Steph knew that there was a high possibility of hearing an "I told ya so" so she had come prepared. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come in" Vince called.
Steph walked in and sat down, "Hey dad, you wanted to see me."
"Yes, you looked troubled at our meeting earlier, so I thought that maybe you would want to talk about it hon." Vince replied.
"Well, I'm not going to beat around the bush. Yes I was crying earlier. Matt and I got into a fight and I told him that we needed to take a break. We have been fighting way too much and that's not normal. So, we're on a break." Steph said trying to be strong. She hated when her dad seen her cry about a guy.
Vince reached out to Steph and squeezed her hand. "I'm sorry to hear that. I heard that you guys were fighting tonight. I'm really sorry and I hope everything works out the way it should. Just make sure it doesn't affect your work."
Steph nodded, "Don't worry dad, neither one of us is that immature."
"Are you doing ok otherwise?" Vince asked concerned.
"Yeah, I'm doing ok. I have cry, then I'm fine, then I cry, then I'm fine. Overall, I'm fine." Steph replied.
"That's perfectly normal. You know, your mom is always available to talk too.' Vince added.
"Right now my friends are really helpful." Steph said standing up. She had had enough and she just wanted to go back to her office. "Thanks dad."
Vince got up and went to give her a hug, "Anytime pumpkin, anytime."
Steph hugged him back and then headed out of the office. She headed back to her office to find something to wear for when she went out with John.

After his match, John headed to the locker room to shower and get ready. As he stepped out of the shower, he heard Kurt calling for him. "What's up Kurt? I'm in here."
Kurt walked over to him, "Hey, do you have a minute?"
"Sure, what's up?" John said drying off and finding his clothes.
"So.I hear that you've stepped up and befriended Steph while I've been gone." Kurt said.
John smiled, "Don't worry Kurt. You're still #1 in her eyes. I didn't take your spot, I just substituted if you will."
"I'm not worried about that. She could use more real friends in her life. I'm just curious as to what made you reach out to her when you had barely ever said anything to her before." Kurt replied slyly. He was trying to see what John's true intentions were.
"I reached out to Steph because she seems like a really great person. She has a great heart, and yet she always gets a bad rap. I know what it's like for people to "think" they know the type of person you are. She really needed someone, so I was there." John replied.
"You know John, you never cease to amaze me. I'm really glad that you're getting to know Steph, she's a great friend." Kurt said with an even bigger smile.
"Let me reassure you, you don't have to worry about me." John said patting him on the shoulder. "But if you'll excuse me, I have to finish getting ready or Steph will think I'm standing her up. I promised her that I would take her out to dinner and make sure to put a smile on her face."
Kurt chuckled, "Not a problem. Have a good night John." And Kurt grabbed his gear and left.
John laughed to himself, he could see how Kurt looked at Steph like she was his younger sister. He finished getting ready and headed out to get Steph. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Jeff heard some commotion coming from the far end of the field. He ran over and seen that it was Matt and Amy. "You know, they just look made for each other." He thought to himself. "MATTIE!!" Jeff yelled.
"What's up lil' bro?" Matt said hugging Jeff. "How've ya been?"
"Good, really good. Let's grab a drink. We're partying tonight." Matt replied.
"Whoo!" Jeff shrieked. "I brought the dirt bikes out."
"Sweet! Ames, before the night is over, I'm taking you for a dirt bike ride." Matt said putting his arms around Jeff and Amy.
Amy laughed, "We'll see."
Matt had a great time catching up on old times with his buddies back home. Matt made sure to constantly have a drink in his hand. Jeff cranked up the tunes and Matt and Amy danced for awhile.
A few hours later, (and quite a few drinks later) Matt snuck up and put his arm around Amy, "Ames, come on. Let's get out of here."
"You're ready to go home?" Amy asked surprised. Normally Matt liked to spend the night in the woods.
"No, I'm taking you for that dirt bike ride I promised you." Matt said to her.
Amy having had a few too many drinks as well didn't think twice, "Ok!"
And the two headed off towards the bikes. Matt grabbed his old bike and put on his helmet. Amy grabbed herself a helmet and climbed on and made sure to wrap her arms around Matt tight. "Alright Matty, let's go." Amy shouted.
Matt cranked on the bike and the two took off headed towards the dark woods. They rode around for awhile. Amy loved riding on the bike behind Matt. It was one of her favorite things to do. Without her realizing it, her hands were slowly sliding down, and soon they were pretty close to Matt's lap.
"Whaddaya say we go over in them trees and watch the stars for awhile?" Matt said rubbing her thigh.
"Sure, sounds great." Amy replied.
**Well, what's going to happen between Matt and Amy? What about John and Steph? No update tomorrow because I'm going to be in a class all day, but I'll check in and I'll have an update for ya by Monday morning. Have a great weekend everyone!**
