MLC- Chapter 5
I slid out of the ring, towards mystery man. Yum! Wait what about Jared. Oh well nothing will happen anyways. I stood by him as Matt and Shane got in. Amy was going to cheer for Matt and I, Shane. Jessica joined me on cheering for Shane. He looked towards her smiling. Matt did a quick roll up and won the match. I slammed my fist on the makeshift mat. Mystery man looks at me with a odd smile. I shake my head and continue to curse Matt and my luck at choosing winners. Jeff and Shannon got in the ring. I decided to cheer for Shannon, knowing he was the underdog of the match up. Mystery man cheer for Jeff. I being as brillant as I am I concluded that he must know Jeff. After Jeff won the match, got in the ring and hugged Shannon. He left the ring and I decided to play king or I mean Queen of the ring.
"I challenge anyone outside of this ring to a match." I was being brave. Mystery man got in. Matt, Amy, Jeff, Shane, Shannon, and Jessica all said oo.
"I accept the challenge." He said waiting for my response, I was stunned for a moment then regained my composture.
"Before we start I must know the name of my opponent." Atleast I could stop calling him, mystery man.
"It's Scott Garland." (For those who don't know that's Scotty 2 Hotty. Some say his real name is Scott Taylor but I am going with Garland.) He smiled at me. I jumped up and hugged him and he returned the hug. I looked up at him with tears in my eyes. I couldn't bring myself to believe he was back. I stepped away from him.
"Okay, let's start the match." With that Jeff made the bell sound. Scott layed down on the mat and signaled for me to cover him. I shook my head "no". I never win like that. He gave up and we locked up. I punched him in the gut. He fell and layed once again on his back. I jumped on the turnbuckle. He stuck his tongue out, so it layed on the side of his mouth. I jumped on him and did a quick pin. I looked down at him, he lifted his head and pressed his lips against mine. I quickly withdrew. He looked at me, quizzically. I got off him and hurriedly exited the ring and rushed towards the house. Shannon run up to me.
"What's wrong, Jer?" I looked towards him.
"Why did he come back and why now?" I said through tears that were starting to fall. I slid down a tree. Shannon sat next to me.
"I can't answer that for you but if you ask him yourself, I am sure he will answer that for you." Shannon replied. Matt came jogging up to us. He squatted in front of me.
"Hey, I thought you would be happy to have him back." Matt said.
"I am...I just.....why did he even bother to come back and why now?!" I could help it but my voice got louder.
"He came back for you and don't think he meant to do that to you. And why is now a bad time?" He wiped a couple of my tears away.
"Because I am WITH Jared and I just can't trust him. And why should I?" I knew this is pathetic but I didn't care.
"Jerri, I know he hurt you. But do you honestly think that Jared wouldn't make a mistake, too?" He looked me straight in the eyes.
"No, but he wouldn't hide it from me and then after I confront him move away and NEVER call!" I got up and headed to the house. Matt knew he wouldn't win but knew that Scott would. I felt someone grab me by my arm, I whirled around and smacked the person, who grabbed me. Scott looked shocked.
"Hey sweetie, what's wrong?" I looked at him in disbelief.
"Don't start now, what you couldn't finish before." I pulled away from him a walked to the house. I ran upstairs and flopped down on Matt's bed. I layed looking up at the ceiling and eventually difted asleep. I didn't even hear when Matt came in. I did feel th bed move, when he sat on it, though.
"Jerri, I know you're up." I turned around and looked at him. I winked at him jokingly.
"Yea." He smiled me.
"You ready for Shane's party?" I rolled my eyes and got up.
"I hate dressing for these things. What is the theme for tonight?" He smirked.
"Your favorite....pool party." I threw a pillow at him. "What was that for?" I shrugged and grabbed my bathing suit and headed into the bathroom to change. My swimsuit was a three piece. The top was like a halter with a sunset design same with the bottoms and the cover skirt. This was going to be an interesting night.
