Trish's Dream

Shawn was pleased with her remarks. He couldn't believe she now felt more alive then she had since he had come to remind her of what she had to fight for. He hadn't thought that kissing her would have felt as good as it did and he had to admit that he wanted to do it again.

Trish's mind was flowing with ideas, feelings and the faintest of memories. It was all coming back to her since the kiss. It wasn't flooding her fast, so she wasn't scared but she had the feeling that she had more of a connection with this man then she had originally thought. Before she had a chance to openly question him further, Shawn spoke.

"There was a time awhile back when we had a match together, and I remember you telling me that if I liked what I saw, then I could kiss you. Well Trish, I like what I see, I always have, and I'm asking you, can I kiss you now?"

Not knowing if she trusted her own voice to speak, she just slowly nodded her head as he moved closer to her, enveloping her with the heat of his body, warming her to the touch. With their hearts beating quickly, unsure of what was happening, they let themselves get lost in another kiss, taking them to another world.

Once she had touched his lips again, she recognized how safe she felt. She hadn't felt this safe in a long time, even when she had been alive. She knew that now. She knew that what she was feeling here and now she just didn't want to give up for the world.

Breaking away from the kiss, Shawn tried to wipe the smile off his face. It had been a long time since he had allowed himself to feel anything close to that since his wife had walked out on him and the wrestling business. He knew it had always been there, lingering between them, but they had never wanted to cross the line. It seemed now that they had, and they didn't want to look back.

He was filled with a sense of dread as he remembered what he had been called there to do. He needed to save her, bring her back to life, so that she could continue to live as it wasn't her time to go. All the stuff happening around them was destined to not go any further then her comatose dream.

"What is it?" Trish whispered, seeing the fearful expression on his face and wondering if maybe she had misplaced the feeling between them.

"I don't know if I can explain it too you."

"If you're worried about telling me that you don't feel anything for me, then please don't."

He felt the need to interrupt her and tell her she had it all wrong but at the same time didn't want to lead her along too much, because when she awoke, she might not remember what has happened in her slumber.

"That's not it, but maybe we should get on with it."

She looked at him and tilted her head to the side, obviously confused and wanting him to elaborate further.

"I am part of your dream state Trish and when you wake up, you may not remember any of this. I want to do what I came here to do, and that is showing you what your life is and will be, and make sure you never lose yourself again."

"You did that already."

"How did I do that?"

"You showed me a part of yourself that I wouldn't have seen had I not asked."

Shawn thought about she said and realized that she was right. Ever since his divorce he hadn't shown anyone anything other then business, and a fake smile. With Trish it all just seemed to fit and he wanted to show her the world.

Acknowledging that, he took her hand into his; stroking it gently before speaking again, in the light tone she had become accustomed too.

"I want to take you out. Will you let me take you on a date?"
