"Amy," Trish said placing her hands on her hips, "What are you talking
about?"
Amy bit her lip. She couldn't say anything...but god she was just so tempted. Fuck, what can I say, what can I say, she said inside of her head as she looked at the signs of impatience on Trish's face.
"See Trish, umm...well Jeff!" Amy shouted, yes! She knew what she could tell Trish and not technically be lying.
Trish frowned at her friend.
"No, we're not talking about Jeff, we're talking about Chris...remember?"
"I mean, Jeff, like you and Jeff. You guys are basically together now and umm...Chris is feeling crappy about his relationship with this girl. I meant that's why he doesn't want to talk to you right now." Amy explained, relieved when the look of anger disappeared from Trish's face.
"Me and Jeff? But, I mean we just started going out. I...I never even thought that it would bother him." Trish frowned, "He has been acting strange lately," She said as an afterthought.
"Well, see! It's because of this...thing with the girl."
"Oh, oh man, I'm such an insensitive bitch. I can't believe I never even considered that I would be hurting him." Trish said, sitting down sadly on the bed.
Amy nodded slowly, "Umm...so how are things with you and Jeff." Now that Trish was rather distracted, at least maybe she could figure out if things between Jeff and Trish would go all right.
"Oh you know, he's a sweetheart. I really like him. But poor Chris."
"No, no, stop thinking about Chris. Focus on Jeff for now okay." Amy said quickly before Trish could change the subject, "Do you know where it's going with him?"
"Huh?" Trish asked distractedly, "Oh well, I guess it could go somewhere. He's really sweet and gentlemanly when he's around me. He didn't even try to get into our room, he just kissed me outside the door."
"Oh really. Well, that's good. So umm...hey are you okay?" Amy asked concernedly when she noticed the sadness in Trish's eyes.
"I'm sorry Aims, I just...I'm still kinda thinking about Chris. I just feel terrible, I mean I can't believe I didn't even see this coming."
"Well...yeah...how did you not see this coming?" Amy said, actually thinking about how Trish could not know or see that Chris was obviously in love with her.
"Aims! Like I don't feel guilty enough."
"Sorry." Amy mumbled awkwardly.
"So well...does this mean that I have to stay away from Chris?" Trish bit her bottom lip nervously as Amy seemed to consider it.
"Honestly?"
"Honesty would be nice."
"Then, I just think that you shouldn't mention Jeff so much around him. Well I mean mention Jeff, so he knows ya'll are still together...but don't talk about personal stuff."
Trish nodded slowly. "Right."
"Now can we please go to bed. I'm exhausted." Amy yawned hugely.
"All right. Night Aims." Trish mumbled before climbing into bed.
Meanwhile, Jeff walked up to his room. He sighed as he sat down on his bed. He felt terrible about the entire situation. He remember Adam saying that Trish had probably only chosen him because he had acted first. But was that all?
He knew that they had a connection. Trish wasn't the usual kind of girl he went out with, but then there wasn't really anything "usual" about her. She looked like a girly kind of girl, and she could have so easily been just one of the many useless valets in the company, but she had not allowed herself to be piegeonholed in such a way. Instead she learned how to wrestle and was actually damn good at it now.
He thought about Chris, one of his best...well was one of his best friends at work.... but now, it didn't seem like whatever friendship they had was going to be able to withstand him being with the girl that Chris seemed to be in love with. He tried to put himself in Chris's position. And with a sinking feeling in his stomach realized that...if Chris had gone out with Trish first he probably would have just stood aside because well, the truth was he wasn't in love with Trish. Sure, he could see himself somewhere down the line loving her, but that feeling of "wanna change my life for her" feeling that he had with his ex-girlfriend simply wasn't there.
"Shit." He mumbled under his breath.
But he also knew that the ever-present possibility of the relationship between him and Trish was also the one thing that was holding him back from the darkness that could so easily take over him. Wrestling wasn't cutting it anymore and he had known that for a long time. The break-up with his girlfriend would have probably been the straw that broke the camels back but before that had happened he realized that Trish, this beautiful girl that everyone wanted for some reason liked him. She really liked him.
The guilt he felt gnawed at him. Was it really fair for him to hold on to her simply because it made him feel better? He really didn't know. She did like him and if he was to break things off with her he would hurt her and he certainly didn't want that. He sighed. Suddenly, his cell phone started to ring beside him on the bed.
"Hello."
"Jeff? It's Beth."
*******wanna see reviews please...I've been stuck on this story for awhile now and I think I may have come up with something that I wanna follow through with....let's see the reaction folks
