Chapter 5
"Chey!" Mark yelled at me as one of the girls was about to administer the move we had been working on for the past couple of days.
"What!" I yelled back.
"Not yet! They aren't experienced enough to pull something like that off!" he lectured, approaching the ring with a scowl on his face.
I huffed and blew a few strands of my golden hair out of my face, "She can do it. We've been working hard on this for the last two days." I informed him.
Mark climbed onto the apron and into the ring, "They haven't even been able to get the back bump right every time, and until they do, you can't teach them a new move!"
"Mark, she is far more advanced than the other girls, I think she can do it!" I defended putting my hands on my hips.
Mark eyed the girls in the ring, "Ladies, go on down to Michaels and join in on the class." he instructed, remaining quiet until they were out of earshot, "Don't you ever undermined me again in front of the members of the class." He growled.
I went to argue but he silenced me with a raise of his hand, "I didn't get this far in the business by moving faster in my training than necessary. They are on a schedule, dammit!"
"But Mark, you also probably learned at a much faster pace than these people are, I know I did."
He nodded, "You and I both also had one on one training. This is a much larger scale and they are having to learn everything all at once."
I frowned and looked down at the matt, "But when you see someone that is more advanced than the rest of the group, why not go an extra step or two with them instead of frustrating them with pounding them with what they already got?" I asked feeling like he wasn't giving me credit for seeing something in the other woman.
"Because, Chey, even you haven't been in the business long enough to make that call!" He yelled into my face.
I know he had to see the hurt and shock cross over my face. Part of it was from him yelling the other, from his lack of trust in me. It hurt me deeply that he would treat me in this manner. My friend, degrading me in the middle of the ring in front of everyone. I dropped my gaze from his steely green eyes down to the matt before looking over the training groups. They had all stopped their training and were staring at us, no doubt hearing Mark's outburst. I couldn't talk... I felt a wave of emotion curse through my veins. I wanted to cry, scream and smack him all at once.
"Look Chey, I'm not trying to disrespect you here... I'm sorry if you feel that way, but I have to make the correct calls for safety when it comes to the ring." he replied softer, using his forefinger to lift my chin so I'd have to look at him.
At this point I heard the child in me scream, 'Fine I quit!'... But, the woman in me won over as I squared my shoulders and waited for him to finish so I could get the hell out of dodge.
"You are one hell of a women's wrestler, Chey... I will give you that... You try so hard, you listen, and you can wrestle us guys and hold your own. But, all jokes aside, age and experience needs to decide when the members of the class move forward, OK?"
I nodded my head, I knew the reasons for his actions and words, but that didn't help the sting of how it felt when he had yelled at me like that.
Since he had arrived here, Mark had taken the time to become my friend. He was the first one who took a few minutes out of his day to try and get to know me, and talk to me about various things outside of the ring. So, having him scold me was like a slap to the face.
Without saying a word I turned and made my way out of the ring and headed for the house... ignoring everything around me. I couldn't understand why my emotions were getting the better of me but I'll be damned if anyone sees me cry.
Please Read and Review guys!! Thanks!
