Thanks again for the reviews, I'm having a ball with this story. :o)

Oh, and yes Phoenix, I'm having a lot of fun exploring Rhiannon's mischievious and manipulative side...I think she and Imogen are a bit more alike in some ways than they might think. LOL

"I figured you might want to celebrate." Jeff grinned as he came through the door and held up a bottle of champagne. Rhiannon laughed delightedly and gave Jeff a hug.

"Absolutely! And I love your taste." She moved back to close the door and happily claimed the bottle from Jeff. "I'll just get some glasses, shall I?" She asked as Kylie timidly came out of the kitchen and Jeff's grin widened.

"Might be an idea. Hey Ky, did you hear the news? Our girl got into OVW!" He stated proudly and Kylie nodded with a smile.

"Yes, about time too." She replied and Jeff's eyes followed her shapely form as she made her way to the couch.

"You okay Kylie? You seem a bit...distracted, or something." He asked mildly and she just stared blankly up at him and shook her head.

"No. I'm fine, just a bit tired. It's been a long day." He nodded, although he didn't believe her. Something was obviously on the girl's mind, he'd never seen her so quiet.

"Come on, come on. Sit down, let's enjoy this lovely bubbly that you kindly acquired for us." Rhiannon smiled as she sat opposite Kylie and started to pour the drinks. Jeff shrugged and went to sit next to Kylie, who stiffened slightly, then forced herself to relax as she grabbed the glass that Rhian offered.

"Well, when are you leaving for Louisville?" Jeff asked, also taking a glass and leaning back to get comfortable.

"Late next week, and I can't wait. I just want to get back in the game and learn whatever I can from the best trainers around." She replied with a smile and Jeff considered that this was the first time he'd seen her truly happy and relaxed since he'd known her.

"Yeah, you'll certainly get an education, as you well know." He raised his eyebrows in agreement and Kylie frowned apprehensively.

"You make it sound less than appealing." She told Jeff warily and he started to laugh.

"Oh, no, it's not so bad. It's a lot of hard work and there are a lot of politics that go on, but once you learn how to handle it, it's all a piece of cake really, as long as you know what you want and you're willing to work hard to get it." He nodded to agree with himself, then wondered why Kylie had sounded so worried about it. As one possibility passed through his mind, he turned to Kylie with grin.

"You're not thinking of getting into the business, are you?" He asked, sounding extremely amused and Kylie went slightly red in the cheeks.

"You sound skeptical, Jeff. Is the idea really so ludicrous?" Rhiannon asked, as Kylie seemed to have temporarily been robbed of her speech. Jeff looked back and forth between the women a few times, as if trying to discern whether they were serious. When he realised that they were, his grin widened and he shook his head.

"No, of course not! It's just that I never thought that it would have appealed to you, that's all. Really!" He impressed, trying to convince Kylie that he meant it. She just stared at him blankly, like she didn't want to believe that what he said was true.

"Well, actually, I was the one who talked Kylie into it. I've been thinking about it for quite some time, but I wasn't sure whether or not she'd go for the idea. Well, it's taken a while, but she's finally decided to bite the bullet and give it a go. I found this new wrestling school advertised and the quotes for training I got aren't too bad." She pulled the clipping out of her jeans pocket and handed it to him to look over. "I'm going to check out the trainer's reputations and such, but if they're okay...What's wrong Jeff?" The young man was staring at the piece of paper incredulously and he suddenly looked up at Rhiannon as if she was crazy.

"Oh no, no way in hell am I letting Kylie train with these guys. Do you have any idea just how many times they've been shut down in the past?"

"What are you talking about?" Kylie finally found her voice, although it came out slightly more high pitched than was usual.

"They've set up so many times in different states it's not funny. It's no wonder, since the amount of injuries that come out of this company is frightening! They have absolutely no safety standards and no real idea of what they're doing. You might as well do what Matt and I did and start in the backyard!" He growled, disgusted at what these people were doing. "I'll have to report them to someone tomorrow, there's no way I'm letting them maim anyone else if I can help it."

"God, that's terrible. I had no idea..." Rhiannon pretended to be shocked by this turn of events, when really, she'd already had dealings with this company before. An old friend of hers had been seriously injured when he'd trained with them. She'd had no idea who she should report them to, so she figured she'd kill two birds with one stone and get Jeff to do that for her, too.

"I'm sorry, but there's no way in hell you're training with them Ky. I won't let you get hurt like that. I'd train you myself before I'd let that happen." He said firmly and a smile passed over Rhiannon's face, as Jeff suddenly looked thoughtful: this was going even better than she'd hoped. "Do you have a gym membership, Kylie?" He asked, not having noticed the look that passed between the girls.

"No, unfortunately. I've just kept fit by jogging and bike riding, really." She admitted and Jeff looked troubled.

"Well, if you're thinking what I think you're thinking, I may be able to offer you a cheaper, more convenient option." She smiled, trying not to look too excited that everything was going to plan.

"What are you talking about, Rhian?" Kylie asked suspiciously and Rhiannon figured she'd better explain before she showed them.

"Well, after Kath passed away, I decided to put the basement to good use and used some of the money she left me to install a gym downstairs." She smiled at Kylie's surprised expression. "That's not all. After I started on the indy scene, Luna and David gave me the idea of building my own ring to practice in once I got home. They and a few other mates helped to design and build it for a small fee, and David checks it out to make sure that it's still in good condition whenever he comes to visit." She tried not to laugh at the incredulous expressions on both of their faces. "What? It was a good idea!"

Jeff suddenly burst out laughing and slapped his knee excitedly. "You're just full of surprises, girl." He shook his head and stood up. "Well, why don't you give us a little tour of this gym, then?"

"As you wish." She motioned towards the basement door and as he bounced his way over there Rhian turned and served Kylie with a sly wink, before moving to follow.

Well, I hope you enjoyed that chapter...Okay, you know the drill, please Read and Review. ;o)
