CHAPTER 3
"And now you have a Big Red Machine of your own for those cold, lonely nights." They snickered as they shoved the gift in Lita's face.
"Now you can thank us." Trish smiled proudly as Lita stared at her. Turning away disgusted, she left with Trish's parting words, "Wait! Come back! You forgot your condoms! Good luck next week!"
Once Victoria had done her spot, the cameras turned off as Amy burst through the doors once more.
"Let me see that." Amy laughed as she grabbed the vibrating box from Carly. The girls tore through the box and pulled out the device. "Man you guys could have at least gotten a good one." She giggled as Trish turned it once more and they watched it vibrate. "Well here you go Trish; you'll probably need it more than I do." Amy smirked as another round of laughter sounded throughout the room.
-----
Amy made her way to the curtain where Adam and Glenn were talking. They called her over as she gave each a hug.
"Where's Matt?" She asked taking a water bottle and twisting open the cap. She smiled when she felt his arms snake around her waist. "Found him."
They talked before the stagehand told them to get into their positions. Wishing each other luck, the music played as Glenn made his way to the ring first followed by Adam.
"I'd like to dedicate this match to my future bride-to-be, Li-ta!" Kane said into the microphone.
Matt and Amy smirked backstage as they waited for their cues.
-----
Once Amy appeared through the curtain, Matt stood waiting with a huge grin.
"I bet Matt like's it that way too." Glenn smirked as Amy slipped her arms around Matt's waist from behind.
"You know he does." She laughed. "Because he can get it so easily." She kissed the back of Matt's shoulder before pulling away. "Speaking of which, we will see you guys later." She linked her fingers with Matt as she pulled him away, a smile playing on everyone's lips.
"Wait, you forgot your condoms." Matt smirked as she passed the Divas locker room. "And um, that 'Big Red Machine'." He stifled a laugh.
"I don't think I'll need that tonight." She purred throwing him the box of condoms. "A girl can only handle so much at one time..." She chewed her bottom lip suggestively.
Trish walked on and laughed as she saw Matt holding the box of condoms. "I was hoping I could use some of those tonight." She said looking at Amy.
"I'm pretty sure you're safe. You don't need one when you're doing a fake." Amy laughed as she said goodbye to Trish and Matt followed.
Getting into their rental car, Matt leaned over and kissed her softly.
"What's that for?" She asked just above a whisper not wanting to ruin the moment. He shrugged his shoulders. Pulling away, he exited the parking lot and headed to their home for the night.
-----
Matt lay down on the bed, his left knee propped up on a pillow while Amy got ready for bed.
Coming out of the bathroom, Amy saw Matt wince in pain as he shifted his knee.
"You alright?" She asked concerned crawling onto the bed and leaning over Matt's knee. He nodded while trying to hide the pain that surged through him. "Sweetie I don't think you are..." But he insisted he was by smiling and nodding his head. Sighing, she cuddled into Matt's side and placed her head on his chest. He stroked her freshly died deep red hair. "I want you taking care of yourself." She said softly drawing circles on his bare chest. "I want to have you around for as long as possible." He agreed. "And I want to be able to take care of you like you did for me." Matt knew that she was more scared about his surgery than he was. She knew just how lonely it could get being off the road for such a long period of time.
"I'm a big boy." He whispered. "You shouldn't be taking care of me. It should be the other way around." He kissed the top of her head. "Everything will be fine. Don't worry Ames." But it was in her nature to do so.
Finally reassuring her that there was no need to worry for the time being, she drifted off to sleep. Matt, laid awake as he gently picked up her left hand and kissed her ring finger. He couldn't wait for the day that that finger would be adorned with a real 'Till Death Do Us Part' ring.
"Someday..." He said softly before closing his eyes waiting to succumb to sleep.
