Nessa sat in Joe's locker room watching as the match with Joe against Chris started. It was just the type of match that she hated to see because of who was involved in it, with Chris being one of her best friends going against Joe...someone she could find herself easily falling in love with Nessa wasn't sure who to root for. In the end she chose just to sit back and watch the match - not rooting for any of them.
The match finally ended when Joe hit Chris with the Musclebuster and the Choke Sleeper. Nessa found herself getting extremely nervous at the thought that Joe would be back soon. She didn't have to wait long either because the door came open and he walked in.
"Enjoy the match?"
"Of course. That was a pretty vicious Musclebuster at the end...I liked it."
"You did?" Joe asked, completely shocked.
"Yeah."
"Wow. I figured I was going to come back here and get yelled at for it."
"Nope, you did great. Both of you did but I enjoyed watching you the most...I always do." Nessa admitted, blushing.
"That's really nice to know. I'm going to go grab a shower then what do you want to do?"
"How about we go to my place and have a drink?"
"Sounds good to me. If you got things you need to do before we leave, go ahead. You can just meet me back here when you're done." Joe suggested.
"I should go tell Chris and Allen what I'm doing. I'll be back as soon as I'm done." She got up and walked to the door but stopped when Joe grabbed her wrist. "Yes?" Nessa asked, turning to look at him. He just smiled and gave her a quick hug. "Ewww, Joe! You're all sweaty." She whined and he laughed.
"Sorry I forgot." Nessa just shook her head at him and went to find Chris and Allen.
She went to Chris' locker room first and got lucky because both of them were there.
"Hey Nessa, we were just about to come get you...are you ready to go?" Chris asked.
"Actually...no. I just came to tell you guys that Joe and I are going back to my place for a drink."
"You're what?" Allen questioned, shocked.
"You heard me. He's a really sweet guy and I like him a lot, he's nothing like I thought he was."
"You like him as more than just a friend." Chris said.
"I do. I'm not sure what he thinks but I want to find out, I've always thought he's very sexy but was too afraid to approach him. Now that I have the chance to spend some time with him I'm not about to pass it up."
"All right but if you need anything promise that you'll call one of us?"
"Don't I always Allen?" Nessa pointed out. He nodded and she gave them both a hug. "I'll see you guys later." Nessa left the room and went back to Joe's locker room. She thought about just walking in but then remembered that he had taken a shower so she decided to knock.
"Who is it?" Joe called out.
"Nessa. You decent?"
"Never but I am fully clothed." Joe laughed and she walked in. "You say your goodbyes and assure them I'm not going to kill you?" He joked.
"I said my goodbyes...not sure how well I did the other part though." Nessa giggled. "Oh well, you ready to get out of here?"
"Yeah let's go." Joe took her hand and they made their way out of the building to her truck. "I'll follow you in my car." She nodded and got in her truck. Nessa waited until his car was behind her then they made their way to her apartment.
