"Oh my God! Kurt!" She sobbed through her tears. He stood still, arms wide open, inviting her. She ran to him and threw herself into those strong arms that she had longed for night after night. He held her tightly against his chest. His heart beating rapidly as he tried to regain his composure. He hadn't cried since he won gold at the 1996 Olympics. This woman definitely held his heart.

Melony pulled away from him, looking up into his blue eyes, she smiled through her tears. "I can't believe you're here."

"Where else would I be?" Kurt cupped her face in his massive hands. His thumbs gently wiping away her tears. "Please stop crying baby. I'm here. Everything is going to be ok."

She was so small and fragile looking, not resembling at all the woman he knew. Just what had Bubba done to her?

She couldn't take her eyes off of him. It was as if she were dreaming and needed to be pinched. But she settled for something even better, to prove he really was standing there. She stood on her tip toes and did what she's wanted to do for months... She kissed him. Passionately, tenderly, with every emotion in her. She put every ounce of her raw emotion into that one kiss. His lips were as soft as she remembered. He returned her kiss, breathlessly, with matching passion and intensity.

It felt like a lifetime of hurt had been healed with one simple kiss. He kissed her on the forehead as he pulled her down into his lap as he fell into one of the arena seats. Neither of them spoke a word as they took in the sight and feel of each other. Kurt stroked her long brunette hair and gently traced over the remaining evidence of the bruise under her eye. She flinched at the thought of him seeing her like that. Needy, helpless, broken. He drank in her beauty and touched her soul with his love. Her heart filled to capacity as he leaned forward and kissed her again. Both were lost in each other, as their unspoken admission love seemed to seal them in a bubble.

An eternity seemingly passed before they finally spoke. Mel cleared the surrealism of the situation from her mind and cocked her head to the side. "Why are you here?"

Kurt smiled. "Last I checked, I work here too.

"You know what I mean Angle. Are you cleared to wrestle?"

"No. I've got another two weeks before I go in for one last check-up. If all looks good, then I'm back baby!"

"Ok. So...you're here now...because?"

"I'm here for you Mel. I told you that I wouldn't give you up and I meant that." He caressed her face. "I had no idea that things were this bad. Look at you, dammit! I wish Mark would have called me sooner."

Mel stared at him in disbelief, practically jumping out of his lap, she stood and glared down at him. "Mark...Mark called you?" The feeling of betrayal ripped through her.

"Well...yeah. What's the big deal? He thought I should be with you now. He's worried about you and so am I."

He face reddened with embarrassment and anger. "So that's the real reason you're here. Because Mark thinks I need a babysitter?"

"No Mel. That's not it at all." He stood facing her. He reached out taking both her hands in his. "I already made up my mind to meet you here. I was inline at the airport before Mark even got through to me. I admit, I was apprehensive about coming here. I don't think I can take being rejected by you again. Mel, look at me." He nudged her chin upwards forcing her to look into his eyes. "Mel, baby, I love you! I'm here because of my love for you."

She had to much on her mind to process what he was saying. It seemed to her as if this was all Mark's forceful way of making sure she didn't return to Bubba. While it had been no time since he left her bruised and broken, she wasn't the same little helpless girl. She couldn't deny the love and concern on Kurt's face. Deep down she new he was there because he loved her, but if she didn't start taking a stand for her life now, when would she?

"Kurt, I don't need your pity or your sympathy. What I do need is to have a talk with Mark."

"Mel, what's wrong with you?"

Mel turned and started down the steps. "What's wrong with me? For once Kurt...nothing. I just need to find Mark. I take it you'll be around?"

Kurt gave her look of confusion. "Yeah Mel. But I thought we could...Well I thought this would turn out different. So I asked Teddy to give you the night off so we could spend sometime together."

"You asked Mr Long to give me the night off without even considering that maybe I want to work?" She rolled her eyes, growing more and more frustrated as she fought within herself not to push him away.

"I don't understand Mel. Why are you pushing me away again? Look at yourself! Do you realize what he's done to you? I don't think you even know if you are coming or going anymore."

"No Kurt, for once I do know. I know Bubba has broken me and I am in search of myself. I know that no man will ever control me or lay a hand on me. I know that those who mean well aren't always aware of the pain they cause."

"I don't understand." Kurt rubbed a hand across his bald head.

"Kurt, I do have feelings for you. I want more than anything to have a relationship with you but it has to be because you want it not because Mark says you need to be with me."

He reached for her hand and held it in his, "Mel, I made reservations to fly here the night we got disconnected. I want to be here. Mark called me when I was already on the plane here, to see you. Don't be so defensive. Look here's my boarding pass, see for yourself."

She held the ticket in her hands, sure enough he was boarding the plane not even three hours after they had been on the phone.

"Kurt, I... I don't know what to say."

"Mark means well. He knew what we were both feeling. All he did was try to help fate along."

"I'm sorry Kurt. I've been a total.."

He placed a finger to her lips. "Shh, none of that now. We're here together and that's all that matters."

"I need to find Mark and..well, thank him and let him know that fate has intervened and his work is done so to speak." She laughed and threw her arms around his neck.

"Then we can go out to dinner? I'm starving!"

"Sure Kurt. I'm so glad you're here."

"Me too baby. Me too."

"I'll meet you outside the women's locker room. I need to grab my things."

"Alright, take your time. I'll be waiting."

He placed a kiss on her lips and watched as she walked away in search of the Mark, the one man that knew what she needed in her life more so than she did.
