Chapter Fifteen: When Everything Seems Good

Caria jumped at the sound of loud ringing going off. It was the hotel's phone. She picked it up and answered it barely awake. "H-hello?"

"Miss Swatson, here's the wake-up call you requested." said a male voice.

"Thank you." Caria said.

"You're welcome and have a nice day." Replied the man, she hung up afterwards and so did Caria.

She looked back to the one next to her. Jeff was so peaceful when he slept. Caria wondered what he dreamed about. She figured probably things full of fantastic and beautiful places that only he could get to. From what she read in his poetry, Caria knew Jeff had one amazing mind.

Caria smiled at him. What a great creation God had made and graced her with. She placed a kiss on the high flyer's tender lips.

'So this must be what love feels like…' a thought appeared in her mind.

Jeff's eyes opened up. They fluttered slightly, and then peered over to Caria.

"Hey baby, good morning." he greeted her groggily.

"'Morning." she greeted back. "Did you have a good sleep last night?"

"Mm, more like great sleep." Jeff corrected smiling. He yawned some.

Caria smiled too lying back down to him. "I love you."

"I love you too." Jeff snuggled against her.

"You know, I've never felt this way so much about anyone before. It may sound corny, but I mean it." Caria confessed.

"Don't worry." Jeff said. "I feel the same way."

Caria giggled softly. "Good, I'm happy to hear that."

"What time is it?" Jeff asked.

Caria rolled over to her side to see the clock. It read 7:05 AM.

"Five minutes after seven; we better get going. I don't want Brooklyn getting all pissy." Caria said.

"You're right, let's get up." Jeff agreed. "Hey but after the show, do you want to do something?"

As Caria sat up and got a shirt out of her bag and her bra off the floor. "Sure, like what?"

"I dunno." Jeff said. "May be dinner at a restaurant?"

"Yeah, I'd like that."

That evening after Raw, Caria had finished up another match with Melina and went back into the locker room to change. Jeff was currently having his match and she was going to wait for him in the lounge.

Pinning up her hair she put the final touches to it and she was done. Being preoccupied with getting read, Caria didn't realize Amy walking in.

"Hey girl, what're you gettin' all spruced up for?" Amy put her hand on her shoulder.

"Jeff's taking me out for dinner." Caria said.

"Ooh, where at?"

"I think at a place called 'The Willow'"

Amy chuckled. "'The Willow'? That sounds like a hippie resturant."

"Yeah, that's what I thought. But it's suppose to be like a fancy version of Olive Garden or something..." Caria said.

"You know, I'm so glad you and Jeff have gotten so close. Now wasn't I right? Nothing bad happened out of this." Amy told her.

"You were right, and I'm glad too. But there's something I need to ask you." Caria mentioned.

"What?"

"You'll still love me no matter what happens right?" Caria asked.

Amy squinted her eyes. "What'd you do?"

"Nothing! Can't a girl ask a question? Dang!" Caria exclaimed.

Amy pushed Caria playfully "I'm just joking with ya! Chill, chill; yes I would always love you. I mean for Pete's sake, you're my kid sister."

Caria hugged Amy. "Thanks Amy, that's all I wanted to know."

"Why?" Amy asked puzzled.

"Just wondering." Caria smiled.

Caria sipped the last remains of her hot coffee. As she threw her cup away, Jeff walked into the room.

"Boo." he spoke.

Caria's eyes landed at the entrance. "Boo."

"You ready to go?" Jeff asked her.

"Mhm, all set."

Caria laced her fingers with his as the two walked out of the building.

"Here is your orders." the waitress put their plates of food onto Jeff and Caria's table.

"Thank you." Jeff said to her.

"You're welcome and if there's anything else you'll need, I'll be you're waitress for tonight." she told them.

"We'll keep that in mind." he replied.

She nodded and stepped away. Caria looked at her plate. "Mm, I absolutly love steak."

"I bet that's your second favorite food eh?" Jeff guessed.

"Third; my second favorite is hotwings." Caria cut off a bite-size piece and stuck it in her mouth.

"You know what's cool about having a girl like you?" Jeff questioned.

"What's that?" Caria answered.

"You worry more about what's gonna fill you up than what's going to effect your weight." Jeff stated.

"Well I do watch my weight, but I'm like my sister; I don't care about being eye-candy for the men in the audience and in the locker room. I care more about making a stand for Divas in the business. Being more tough than all just peppy. Personally, I think that life style of starving yourself makes you more ugly than you really believe to think you are." Caria explained eating another piece of steak.

"Wow, that's interesting. I never really thought of it that way." Jeff commented.

"Well it's only common sense, I see it." Caria responded.

"Do you just randomly think about things like this?" Jeff asked her.

"To be honest; sometimes." Caria laughed.

"I see." Jeff smiled.

"And you know what's cool about having a guy like you?" Caria asked him.

"Hmm, everything?" Jeff kid.

"Don't flatter yourself bud." Caria narrowed her eyes. She put her hand on his. "No really, I love the fact that I finally found some I can truley be myself with."

Jeff turned her hand over and held it. "I'll always be here for you."

Caria looked into his eyes. "I love you Jeff."

"I love you too Amy." Jeff responded. He quickly noticed what he said. He hoped Caria didn't hear him but unfortunatly she didn't. Why didn't he say her name instead of Caria? "I mean --"

Caria snatched her hand back. She blinked and looked at the scared Jeff. Did she hear him correctly?

"A-Amy?"
