A Cab Ride in Portland

The taxi ride was quiet both Vaness and Glenn lost in their own thoughts. The car flowed thru the city streets with ease, never missing a turn. Their destination was some fancy restaurant at some equally fancy hotel Vaness could never even dream of affording. Glenn had told Vaness not to worry about it as they waited for the cab. That because it was her special night Mark and him where going to take care of everything.

"Did I tell you that you look lovely tonight?" Glenn asks breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled over the car.

"Yes you did" Vaness replies back her accent making her voice sound airy and light. She turns slightly towards him a blush creeping into her cheeks.

"You're a very beautiful woman Vaness" Glenn continues his heart swelling. He had never thought before that the feelings he was feeling for this woman could happen so fast. He had only known her a few hours but he couldn't help the way his heart beat faster when she smiled his way.

"Beauty can be both a blessing and a curse Glenn. I may be beautiful but it has caused me much hardship in my relatively short life." Vaness responds not really thinking about what she is saying her head slightly bowed as memories of the past flood her mind. Glenn could not miss the way her eyes clouded over as she made this statement. He had to hold himself back from pulling her into his arms to comfort her.

"What do you mean? Hardships?" Glenn asks slightly confused. How could beauty be a curse to someone?

"What?" Vaness asks her head snapping up to stare into his eyes with a look of worry in hers.

"Never Mind" Glenn says almost ashamed. "It's not my place to ask. I've only known you for a very short time. I don't wish to pry into your past" he smiles at her. The worried expression she had on her face smoothes away into a small smile.

"So far you have been a good man Glenn. I do not wish to spoil our evening with talk of darker times. If you are able to stick around for awhile maybe one day I will tell you about what has happened in my past" she smiles at him a true smile that reaches her eyes then she looks back out the window taking in the city.

The cab pulls up to the curb outside the Heathman Hotel where Mark and Glenn had decided it would be best to have dinner. After dinner they planned on taking Vaness to a local dance club where the company had rented a VIP room for the wrestlers. They thought it would be best to give her a chance to mingle with the other superstars outside of the work place.

Glenn rushes out of the car first running around to the other side to open Vaness's door for her. He extends his hand to her trying to think of any reason to touch her. Vaness gently takes Glenn's hand as he helps her get out of the car. She releases his hand quickly after standing to smooth out her dress then just as Glenn moves his hand back to his side she takes it again gently squeezing it. She smiles up at him as they head into the hotel and towards the restaurant where Mark is waiting.

Two hours later Club Dirty Downtown Portland

After an amazing dinner Glenn, Mark, and Vaness are ushered into the VIP room at the Dirty Nightlife downtown Portland The room was jam-packed full of wrestlers, divas, and even some of the crew. Everyone is dancing and having a good time, the liquor is flowing and there are even a few people singing along with the song that is currently playing. The three walk over to an empty table saying hello to people as the walk by. Mark and Vaness take a seat and Glenn leans in close to Vaness.

"What do you want to drink?" Glenn asks Vaness close to her ear.

"I'll have a Jonny Walker Black Perfect Rob Roy." Vaness almost yells back at him. It's hard to be heard with all these people. Glenn gives Vaness a look that says he could not believe what she just ordered. A what he almost asks to himself Vaness just smiles up at him as he begins to walk away muttering her drink order under his breath.

"A girl who likes her liquor very interesting" Mark muses out loud to himself his voice a deep baritone with a southern drawl. He gives Vaness a small smirk.

"What's so interesting about that" Vaness looks sharply over at him. She has no problem tuning out the music to hear him ok even though it is very loud in the club.

"Well darlin, most women like there drinks light and sweet. I have met very few that drink straight liquor and even less that order a double without something else in it." The smirk never leaves Marks face as he leans in closer to her, turning on his charm, his deep voice rumbling with a slight sexiness to it.

"Well Deadman I think we have already establish that I'm not like most women." Vaness pauses to smirk right back over at him. She leans in close to him getting right up next to his ear. She whispers "And I wouldn't suggested calling me Darlin, sweetheart, or any other southern charm pet name again Mark or the kick that I delivered to Randy in the ring is going to look like a pat on the head compared to what I will do to you."

Marks head snaps in her direction after she whispers to him. He doesn't really notice how close they really are and as his head moves to look at her their noses lightly touch. Vaness pulls back quickly not enjoying even that slightest amount of unneeded physical contact. She glares in his direction but is attention has been pulled to Glenn returning with their drinks.

Glenn didn't miss the fact that Vaness and Mark where face to face only moments before but had to stop himself from laughing when Vaness pulled back from Mark. Obviously Marks charms had no affect on her. Glenn chuckles softly to himself as he sets down the drinks. Just as he is about to slide into the booth trapping Vaness in-between him and Mark she scoots out to stand beside him.

"Going somewhere?" Glenn asks during a break in the songs. Looking over at Vaness a smile on his face, she smiles back at him and grabs her drink. She takes a long drink only pausing to take a breath before she takes another drink. She sets her drink back down on the table and straitens out her dress.

"This is a dance club Glenn, I'm going to go dance" Vaness says mockingly looking between the two men before turning around and walking to the dance floor threw a mass of swaying bodies.

Glenn watches Vaness walk away with a small smile before he loses her in the crowd of people. He sits down with Mark and takes a drink of his beer. Mark can't help but stare at his friend. To Marks eyes Glenn looks like a little lost puppy wanting to fallow her which is quite humors due to Glenn's massive size. He can't help but realize that Glenn hasn't looked this way at someone since his divorce and even then he never really looked at his ex this way either.

Vaness turned a few heads as she approached the middle of the dance floor her body moving fluidly with the music. She loved to dance although took little time out of her schedule for something as unnecessary as moving her body as one with music. Her hips sway and her eyes close not really caring that she is not dancing with a partner as so many around her are. She continues dancing for a while not noticing that she has grabbed the attention of someone. Large hands grab her on the hips and she is pulled back against something solid and warm she tensed up as soon as contact was made.

Andrew Martin had been watching the beautiful red haired woman dancing for a few minutes before he decided he had to have her. He noticed she didn't have a partner and as he approached her he noticed her eyes were closed. Not thinking twice about it he grabbed her and pulled her to him. Not even noticing when she tensed in his grasp.

"I'm Andrew" He said to her in a low voice right next to her ear grinning like a kid in a candy shop. "Andrew Martin but you probably know me as Test from the show." Vaness wiggled her way out of his grasp shaking slightly. She whirls around and slaps him right across the face a look of hatred in her eyes. The people around them stop dancing to watch what's going on.

"Hello Andrew I'm Vaness" she takes a deep breath to compose herself. "You may or may not know me as The Reaper I debuted tonight on the show" She smirks at him as the smile slips off his face. There's a bright red hand print on his right cheek. "I would really like it if you would never touch me again" she almost growls at him before stalking off in the direction of the door.

Mark and Glenn don't even realize what's going on as Vaness exits the club and hails a cab. She has had enough male attention this evening and wants nothing more than for this night to be over. The two men continue drinking for a bit longer neither of them wanted to state their concern for the young woman who seems to have been dancing for a long time.

"I'll be right back Deadman nature calls" Glenn says gruffly standing up to head to the restroom. As he walks through the crowd of coworkers he can hear whispers about something that happed to Test. Something about a woman slapping the taste out of his mouth. Glenn has to chuckle to himself. Andrew always had been a bit of a womanizer Glenn was glad to hear someone had taught his a lesson.

Stepping into the bathroom he sees Andrew standing in front of a mirror something white pressed up to the right side of his face. Glenn goes and dose his business and then steps up beside the other man to wash his hands.

"Have you come to laugh at me too? Big Red" Andrew asks almost ashamed.

"What do you mean man?" Glenn inquires playing dumb to hopefully he can get the story first hand.

"Well I thought you may have come in here to laugh like some of the others had. They all thought it was funny that I got slapped for dancing with a woman" Andrew pauses to remove the towel he had presses against his face, showing off the large red mark that stands out across his cheek. "All I did was come up behind her and pull her against me. Slapping me wasn't called for we were just dancing."

"Who was it this time man? Lisa? Trish? Stacy? Oh please don't tell me it was Amy?" Glenn asks trying to keep his amusement out of his voice.

"Naw none of them some new girl, what was her name" Andrew pauses tapping his chin like it would help him remember the name. "Ahh yes I think she said her name was Vaness or something like that" Glenn had to stop himself from seeing red. He places his hand on the other man's shoulder squeezing down none too gently.

"Vaness IS MINE" Glenn says angrily knowing he really has no right to lay claim to this woman but feeling like he needs to. Andrew eyes go big.

"I'm sorry man" Andrew gulps out. "I didn't know. I won't touch her again I promise" he attempts to get out of Glenn's grip but fails.

"Where did she go?" Glenn asks using his best Kane voice.

"She left man she bolted for the front door after out confrontation." Andrew is almost hyperventilating at this point. He can't remember at time when Glenn acted this way over a woman.

"She better be ok Or it will be your ass" Glenn states flatly giving Andrew a certain look. A look that means one hair on her head out of place and you'll be a dead man.
