Kassie continued to laugh at Mark as she jumped out of the truck. She pulled her bag down from the seat, and Mark walked up behind her. She pulled her bag over her shoulder and turned around to see Mark. He placed his hand out, and she took it. She smiled and looked up at him as the two of them walked into the gym. Mark grabbed the door to the gym, and Kassie walked into the desk and began to sign them in.
"Hi guys!" Roger said, "How are you two doing?"
"Good" Kassie said, and Mark nodded his head.
"Cardio day?" He paused, "What do you think?"
"I am not sure. I can handle that." Mark said with wide eyes.
"Glen said you needed to get into some time to shape." Roger snicker, and Kassie finished filling out the sign-in form.
"I am ready for it" Kassie snicker and stuck out her tongue at Mark, who just smiled, put his head down, and followed Kassie into the other room.
Roger followed Mark, "So, what's the deal?" He poked the big man.
"Same old same old" He smiled and watched Kassie put her bag down.
"So, how long this time?" Kassie asked as she began to stretch her arms around, swinging them around.
"How does a warm-up and then 3?" Roger said, and Kassie shook her head and headed off her way.
"Shoot, she might be able to keep up with you, but not me." Mark grumbled, and Kassie laugh started to chuckle as he walked over to the treadmill and started to a slow walk.
Roger walked around as the three of them chatted until they could not breathe. Roger could tell something was different between the two of them. Mark continued to walk on the treadmill as Kassie began to jog. Kassie was getting to the point that she could not talk and get to a run at the same time. Three miles was just enough to get in about a mile and a half run, and then Kassie put her feet on the rails and slowed down the treadmill.
"Where are you at?" Kassie looked over at Mark's machine, and Mark reached up to cover it.
"I am warmed up" Mark said to her, and Kassie just smiled and got off the treadmill and went to get the wipes to wipe it down.
"Bumps and then a few rope runs" Roger said, and Mark went to go into the ring and started to lean up against the ropes. Kassie cleaned up the treadmills, went to the ring, and pulled herself up to stand on the edge of the ring. Roger kept watching Mark, and the two of them were inside the ring, working on a few lockups, and Kassie watched. "Kassie, come in here and lock up with Mark." Roger called her, and she came into the ring. Roger stood in the corner, and Mark smiled at her as she stood across from him.
"Your so serious" Mark said and laughed, and Kassie smile and walked around him for a little and then lunged forward and locked up with Mark's hands on her shoulder.
"Nice" Roger said and could hear Mark and Kassie breathing heavy. "Your a fast learner Kassie" He said as he walked over to them "Mark put her into a head lock" He moved to push her into a headlock even tho Kassie was pushing away. "Okay, Kassie, listen to the directions. I want you to push Mark away, and he is going to bounce against the rope."
"Okay" She said, and Kassie placed her hand on Mark's thigh and stomach and pushed away from him, and he took a few steps and bounced against the ropes and then took a few more steps to the other sides and bounced a bit.
"Good Job" Roger said and patted Kassie on her shoulders. Roger watched Mark take the bounces a bit.
The two finished working out, and Kassie was starving. She knew she should have eaten beforehand, but was never sure what they were doing and didn't want to work out on a full stomach. Kassie grabbed her bag and pulled out a jacket and a towel. She blotted off her face and then put the towel into her bag. She put on her jacket even tho it was going to be a bit warm when she left.
"Are you planning on going to Wrestlemania?" Roger asked
"Yeah, I have a table there only certain times. It will be nice since then; maybe I can take Kassie."
"Oh, is she into wrestling?"
Mark started to chuckle a bit, "Nope, She has no idea." Roger looked at Mark and just shook his head.
"You better watch out; she is a tough cookie. She will kick your butt one of these days." He started to laugh, "Let me know either way. It is not a big deal, just trying to figure out my schedule." Roger said as they meet up with Kassie, "Good job today. I was just telling Mark that you're a quick learner."
"Thanks" Kassie smiled, and Mark grabbed his bag, and Mark placed his hand on her lower back, and the two of them made there way out of the gym. "Hey, can we grab dinner?"
"Sure" He said and smiled, "You want Sushi?"
"Sounds wonderful, but we can just take it back to my house. It is getting late."
"Agree."
Kassie got up the next morning and was so glad that it was Friday. She wore a light pink form-fitting dress that went to about her calf. The dress had a black emborder around the neckline with a matching black belt. She wore black heels. Kassie put her up into a messy bun and did a smoky makeup. Kassie was glad that today she only had half a day of work. She grabbed her purse and headed out. She got to the elevator and headed to her car.
"Hey!" the now-familiar man caught up to her. It seems to be a weekly event. Kassie would listen to him chat to her about Mark while she headed to her car. He finally stopped talking and took a breath. "Why do you never answer any of my questions?"
"Why should I?" She said as she turned around and looked him as she could hear her car hmm behind her.
"Well, I have questions." He said, and Kassie was a bit surprised that was the only thing that he said back instead of being degrading. She walked over to her car and stood there.
"Yes, I am well aware of that, but this has nothing to do with the Undertaker and his career. Your asking questions about our life."
"Well, yeah, people want to know." He stopped, and Kassie opened the door to her car.
"We are not ready to answer any of those questions. Have a good day." She said to him and got into her car.
Kassie pulled up to the office, and Mark was waiting for her in the parking lot. It became a nice routine that Mark would meet her in the parking lot, and the two of them walked into the office together. He reached out to her, and Kassie snuggled right under his arm, and he kissed the top of her head.
"Sorry, my stalker was waiting for me again this morning."
"What does he want?"
"Tons of questions about us."
"Maybe it is better if you come to my house this weekend."
Kassie smiled and looked up at him "Wow a whole weekend with you?"
"Don't get all exciting... I don't have a lot of plans this weekend... mostly lounging around the house."
"Doesn't sound like a bad idea." She smiled as he moved his hand and opened the building door, and Kassie walked in first. The two walked side by side into the building. The lobby was filled with people today as they filed into the elevator. Kassie leaned up against Mark just enough to place his arm around her, but it would catch everyone else's eyes in the elevator.
"Excuse us, this is our floor" Kassie said, and people shuffled around, and Mark and she walked out of the elevator. Kassie looked over at Mark as they walked there separate directions. Kassie sat down at her desk, and Jessica and Ashley walked in the office and said hi to Kassie as they put their purses down.
"You want a break and get some coffee?" Jessica said, and Kassie joined the two of them
"Any plans for the weekend, you two?" Kassie asked as she leaned up against the wall in the cafeteria.
"No, I am hoping for a quiet weekend." Ashley said
"Oh you know that is the plan every weekend" Jessica said, "How about you?"
"Mark invited me to his place for the weekend."
"Sounds like time to get away from your stalker." Jessica joked a bit
"I would totally take him up on that. Doesn't he live in the country or something like that?" Ashley said
"Yea, I been there that one time" Kassie said as she took a big sigh. "Jennifer and Amanda are acting really different since all of this."
"They will get over it" Ashley said, "It happens you grow up after all the alcohol and move on and become an adult."
"Yup" Jessica agrees "They will get over it. Right now, worry about you, and they will come around." She paused and looked at Kassie, "Look how much your body has changed without the alcohol."
"And your life" Ashley said with a smile as she nudges Kassie, and she looked up at the window to see Mark and Glen chatting.
"I better finish this report" Kassie sighed "I am taking a half a day today, and that is on my plan to get it done before I leave."
"Oh good, you taking some me time."
"Yeah it will be nice" Kassie said as she blushed a bit and then excused herself from the group. She felt a bit better than this was just a phase, and the girls would be the hardcore group that they always were.
Kassie tried to focused on work and complete the report that she set out to do, but her mind went on every other topic, including Mark. She looked over the cubical wall and seen him leaning back, studying something on the screen as he rubbed his chin. Kassie put her head back down and finished off her report. Kassie grabbed her report off the printer and walked over to Mark's office and knocked on the door interrupting his train of thought.
"Sorry, here is the next report." She walked into this office and handed him the 20-page report.
"Thank you" Mark said and took the report from her hand. "You were not interrupting me, ever" He said and gave her a look.
"I think I am going to leave. There is no reason to start anything new in the last 15 minutes." She placed her hands in front of her.
"Sure, did you give it thought? You want to stay at my house this weekend?"
"Yes, I do" She smiled.
"Great, I will pick you up after work?" Mark said, and Kassie smiled and blush.
"Sorry Kassie, Mark. I need
your thought on that report before the end of day" Glen stuck his head in and then went back to his office.
"Sounds like your busy" She smiled.
"Text me when you get home"
"Sure, your secret safe with me" Kassie smiled and stuck out her tongue at him. Mark smiled and shook his head as he watched her leave his office and walk back to her desk. Damn, he was falling for her more and more they are together.
Kassie grabbed her purse and said goodbye to the girls and headed out of the building. She made it home and into her condo with no one stopping her, which is funny enough because she felt like Mark came into her life. She has been stopped and getting more attention than she normally did. She pulled out her phone and texted Mark to let him know that she was home and was going to a run.
Kassie changed into a light blue tie-dyed sports bra and matching yoga pants. She packed her duffle bag of multiply change of clothes and items she will need for the weekend. She put the bag next to the barstool. She grabbed her keys, phone, and headphone and set herself up for a nice jog on the beach once more before leaving for the weekend. She put on her sneakers and pull her up her hair into a ponytail. She checked her phone one more time seeing no one messaged her. She turned on the music, and off she went.
Mark was done he looked at the clock, and he still had ½ an hour until he could. He was done. His brain was not working anymore, and he was not getting anything done. He walked over to Glen's office. "Hey, I am jetting out of here."
"Okay," He paused "What are your plans this weekend?"
"Hanging around the house. I asked her to come over. There is a stalker at the condo."
"Really?"
"Yeah, he has been showing up about once a week different days and times"
"Well, have fun this weekend. I will be at home too if you two need another place to escape."
"Thanks. See you later" Mark said and tapped on the door. Mark got into the elevator and ran into Mr. Smith.
"My Superstar," Mr. Smith said and shook his hand "You getting out of here this weekend?"
"Yes, Sir" He said, "You have plans this weekend?"
"Nothing fancy the misses wants to stay in. How about you?"
"Same here"
"Mark, I have to say you are still keeping a busy lifestyle even tho you are out of the spotlight."
"Thank you, Sir. Trying to keep these old bones going." He paused "You have a good one"
"Mark, wait!" He called, and Mark walked back over to him, "How is Kassie?"
"Um, She is well" He said and nodded his head. There were a bunch of things he wanted to say, but remember what Glen told him.
"Great! See you Monday" He said, and Mark smiled and walked away.
Mark pulled up to Kassie's condo, and he sat in his truck as he texted her. "I am here to whisk you away this weekend." He was not sure if she was still on the beach or was in the condo
"I am running back to the condo now." Mark started to head towards the beach. He looked around and noticed that there were not that many people on it at this time. He tried hard not to get into the sand with his work clothes on, which was impossible. He looked to the right and did not see anyone, and then he looked to the left, and he noticed that someone was running in the distance. He stood there and covered his eyes a bit to try to see who it was.
Kassie looked down the beach and see that Mark was standing there waiting for her. She ran as fast as she could as she reached out her hands and finally their body attached to each other. Mark hugged her tight, her legs wrapped around his hips. He could hear her breathing heavy, and it was heaven to his ears. He put her down on the sand, and she pulled her out her earbuds. She leaned up against him and kissed him hello.
"Hi" She said breathlessly "I am sorry. I must have forgotten the time"
"Not a problem. I was not sure where you were. Plus, I am early." He smiled and put his arm around her. She looked great even in workout clothing. "Are you ready to get out of here?"
"Yeah, let me just take a quick shower and change" She giggled as Mark could feel the heat coming off her body.
"Yeah not a problem" He said, and the two of them walked across the street back over to the condo.
"Excuse me!" a man's voice called, and Mark pulled Kassie closer.
"Oh no" She said, and Mark heard her.
"Who is that?"
"The stalker" She said and started to walk a bit faster.
"Excuse me, Taker!" the man screamed at the two of them and then walked up to the elevator. Mark turned around and headed right to him.
"What do you need?" He asked
"A-Are you two dating?" He shuttered, and Mark was right up against his nose to nose.
"What business is that of yours?" He asked, and Kassie hit the button for the elevator and went back to Mark and grabbed his arm.
"Come on, he is not worth it." Kassie got Mark's attention as he looked at her.
"Y-You have been seen around here often." The man stuttered
"Yeah, I have been" He paused and pulled Kassie into him "You need to leave us alone. I give more than enough press releases. You can reach out to manager Eric Hail. If you need or want a press release."
"Y-Yes Sir"
Mark turned around, and Kassie looked back at the man who looked like he was going to mess his pants in seconds. She turned her head and looked at Mark. She never saw that side of him before. She placed her head on his arm, and he hugged her tighter "Hopefully that is the last time you see him" He said as they got into the elevator.
Kassie got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around her body. "I was not sure what to pack. So, I hope I didn't get over pack," She said to Mark.
"I am sure you have enough clothes" he chuckled a bit, "Are the girls going out Saturday?"
"Yea" She said and came out of her room with her towel on "I don't expect them to stop since I did."
Mark could not even think of any words she stood in front of him in a towel and wet hair. "Um, yeah" He finally got out. He stood up and ran his hands up against her arm, giving her goosebumps against her skin. "I hope you packed that body wash." She chuckled a bit, and he kissed her shoulder.
"You like that?" She giggled, and her mind started to race with a million things that she wanted to do right now. Mark continued to plant kisses on her shoulder and into her neck. Kassie's stomach made a really loud noise.
"I better get you some food" He said, and Kassie was a bit breathless.
"Um, yeah." She said and looked at him, who brushed his fingers against her skin "Where were you thinking?" Mark sat down on the barstool, and Kassie scooted back into the bedroom and got into some shorts and a t-shirt. She pulled her hair up into a messy bun her natural curls coming out and sticking out, which made it looks even fancier. Kassie pulled her mascara out of her duffle bag next to Mark's feet. She leaned over the little table that her keys sat on and put it on in the mirror.
"Are you just wanting a good burger?"
"Yeah, that works for me" She kneeled down and put her makeup back into the bag.
"Great, I know the spot."
Mark and Kassie sat outside of a small mom and pop shop, enjoying a burger and a beer. "Lets toast to a weekend of fun and excitement" Mark said, and Kassie nodded and toasted him. "This place has the best burger" Mark paused and smiled at Mark and took one bite, and she shook her head to him.
"You are not joking. I don't think I ever had a burger like this" Kassie said as she chews the burger.
"I am telling you if you want good food, just tell me. I know the places." Mark chuckled a bit "So, my cousin, she is getting married next Saturday" Mark began as he was pretty confident that Kassie would take him up on his offer, but also knew that this was a big step. "You want to be my plus one?"
"Hmm" Kassie reflected as she looked at her burger, almost gone on her plate. She took a drink of her beer and looked at Mark, who seems to stop eating, waiting for her response. "You know meeting the family is a big step."
"Yeah, my family will be there" He paused, "I am serious tho." Mark reached over the table and ran his hand against hers.
"I don't have a dress" Kassie said with a snicker as she smiled at Mark, who shook his head.
"That was the least of my worries" He joked back as he took another bite. "So, you will be my plus one?"
"Yeah" She said with a smile as she grabbed another bite of her burger.
"There is another event for wrestling the following weekend. It is in New Orleans, I would like to take you with me."
Kassie wiped her mouth and finished chewing her burger "So, I don't have to track you down?"
"Well, no, you would be my plus one" He said with a smile on his lips, and Kassie just chuckled and shook her head.
"That event might be easier than the wedding."
"Yeah, you know how the family can be" He said, and the two continued to chat while Mark finished off his second burger. "Come on, let's get to my house. I will start a fire, and we can have some drink there." He smiled as he pulled her in closer as the two of them walked to the car. He kissed the top of her head. "No worries, I have enough Jack for a battleship."
"Damn, I am not drinking that much" She laughed at him "You want me in that small little red thing... I will have to give up the drinks." Mark just laughed and remember her in that bikini, and his mind went racing.
Kassie grabbed her bag a bit apprehensive as she threw it over her shoulder. She smiled at Mark, and the two of them walked into the house. "Go ahead and throw your stuff in my room. I will meet you out back" He said to her like she belonged here with him.
"Um, yeah" She said, and she took her bag to his room. She took out a few of the items that she knew she would need for the night. She took her time as she looked around the room again and then outside the window. She could hear that Mark turned on some music, and a fire was already started. She smiled
and watched him a little.
Kassie walked around the house just a bit before heading out to Mark. Mark walked over to her with a smile on his face and a drink in hand. "I am told I pour strong"
"Nah, you're fine." She laughed a bit, "this is not the first time you made me a drink." She looked at the fire as it smelled so good. The music was not blasting, but loud enjoy to enjoy the song. She sat down in one of the chairs, and Mark sat next to here. The two chatted a bit and sipped on a drink.
"You want another one" He asked.
"Yes please" She said and finished the little bit in her glass before handed it to him. "I am still so impressed by your place here."
"Thank you" He said as she fixed the drinks. He walked back over with two fresh drinks and handed her one.
"Thank you" She said, and she watched him take a seat next to her "Did you happen to bring my report home?"
"Yeah, I have to read it and do a few things with work this weekend." He paused and made a face "It shouldn't take me that long, plus then you can explain it."
"Oh, well, there is really nothing to explain. I am not impressed with this one, and really don't want to present it." She paused and took a sip of her drink.
"Well, your busy the next few weeks with more research. I don't believe your name is on the list for presentation."
"My name is not on the list, but if one person bails out. I am sure I will be the one to fill in."
"Well, I can't say that is not true. They do believe you have the touch."
"Yeah, what a touch" She snickered and rolled her eyes.
"Come here" He said, and she got up and walked over to him, taking a seat on his lap "If you have that touch, you have the touch, then just go with it." He said, and Kassie looked at him. She smiled at him as she watched the flames danced in his eyes. Kassie wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his lips softly, the fireworks burning between them. Mark placed his arms against her waist as she moved around and straddled his legs. Their lips dancing with each other as their tongues explored each other mouth.
Mark shifted in the chair as he was becoming uncomfortable. Kassie sat back, giving him space to move. Mark moved in the chair and then placed his hand against her back. Kassie looked at Mark for a moment, and he looked at her. He reached out and brushed her cheek a bit, and they smiled at each other. Kassie leaned her head into his hand, and she kisses his hand, which put them right on track. Mark leaned over and kissed his lips on fire against her. Then quickly, he pulled Kassie's shirt off and gently starting to leave wet trails of kisses from her shoulders to her breast.
Mark shifted Kassie, lifting her up, and she giggled at him as he did. She made sure not to leave go of him. They were both breathless in each other arms. The music playing as the only thing around them was the darkness and the heat of the fire. Kassie's began to undo Mark's belt as she could feel his phone was vibrating in his pocket.
"Do you need to get that?" She asked as she sank down to her knees in front of him
"Who is it?" He asked a bit irritated and pulled out his phone "Its my son. Let me just take this quick." He paused and rubbed her cheek as he answered the phone. "Son, how are you?" He paused, "Where are you at now?" He paused, "Are you okay enough to drive, or should I come to get you?" He paused and began to rub his head "Vincent just get here your mother will rip me a new one." He paused, "See you soon" He hung up the phone. "Um, my son will be here shortly. He was at a party nearby. You know how kids are."
"Yeah" Kassie said and smiled as she looked at Mark as she could tell the disappointment on his face. Kassie grabbed her shirt and shook it a bit as she stood up.
"Vincent is 19 now and just can't wait till he is 21 and not have to hide his stunts from his mother."
"You don't have to explain it to me." She laughed a little as she pulled her shirt on "I been down that road too" Mark just chuckled a bit. He stood up and fixed himself. He leaned over to Kassie and kissed her deeply the taste of Jack on her tongue was still there and enjoyably as she leaned into him even more. Mark pulled her closer to him as he saw the headlights coming down the driveway.
"Let me go get the boy" He said as Kassie watched him walk away. She stoked the fire a little as it was beginning to die out. She grabbed her glass and took a sip and then a seat.
"Don't worry about it" Mark said as he patted his son on his shoulder. "Kassie, this is Vincent, my son" He said, and Kassie stood up.
"Nice to meet you" She said to Vincent as she put her hand out and he shook it.
"Dad can I have a drink too?"
"I think you had enough how about soda, and you can chill at the fire before it goes out." Mark said, and Vincent grumbled. "I will get you one"
Vincent sat across from Kassie and kept staring at her. She crossed her legs as she leaned back on the chair and took a sip of her drink. "How was the party?"
"It was okay, it was on a college campus. So, there were a lot of people."
"Pretty risky" She said to him, "We use to just rent out a house right outside of college limits."
"You shouldn't be telling me this." He laughed, and Mark walked over and handed him a soda.
"I should. So, you pick the better parties." She chuckled as she watches Mark sit down next to her. He took a drink from his glass.
"So, how long have you two been a thing?" He asked
"About a month." He paused and looked at Vincent "Kassie works with me with Glen"
"Oh" he said, and the three of them sat around the fire for a while, and it slowly went out. Kassie finished her drink and seen Mark has already finished his.
"I will take your glass, and you two can close down the fire?" Kassie said and smiled at Mark.
"Sounds like a plan" Mark said and handed her his glass.
"Shall I take yours too?" She asked Vincent
"Yes" He said and watched her walked over to him and pick up the glass from the table next to him. He watched her walked into the house and closed the door. "oh my god, Dad. She is my age."
"No, She isn't," He said to him.
"Look at her body, Dad."
"Vincent, enough, remember I am your dad." Mark knew the little filter that young men have was gone. Vincent moaned and helped his dad clean up a little, and then the two of them went into the house.
"Good night" Vincent said and walked passed Kassie in the kitchen.
"Night" She said, and Mark locked the door and set the alarm. Mark walked over to Kassie and hugged her as she took in a deep breath of the fire still on his clothes. "He is a normal man his age."
"Oh yeah" Mark said, and the two of them made their way to the bedroom.
Kassie woke up early the next morning to the sunlight coming into the room. She rolled over to see Mark still asleep. She smiled and ran her hands against his chest, which didn't wake him. She slowly slides her hand under the covers against his thigh. She could tell that his breath was changing. Mark rolled over to his back fully, and Kassie smiled up at him waking up.
"Good Morning" She whispered to him as she wrapped her hand against his member.
"Morning" He said and pushed her loose hair away from her face.
Kassie slides her hand up and down his member as she slowly kissed his hip and then slowly made her way under the covers. She got self-settled aside from him as she gently nibbled against his thigh. He took a few breaths in, and she went for it as she started to please him. He reached under the covers and pulled back her hair and held it behind her head. Kassie was not inexperienced with pleasing a man, and she did what she knew and could feel that Mark was getting closer to the edge. He pulled the covers off of her and watch her as his breath began to stagger. He held onto the back of her head as she took him down as deep as she could, which threw him into an orgasm. Kassie could hear that he was stuffing the noise that he finished off. She licked him clean as she swallowed. She sat back as she was a bit breathless herself. She cuddled up to Mark into his chest, and he wrapped his arm around her.
