Kevin sat with his phone in his hand. It had been three days since he met Madison. He wanted to call her, but he didn't know what to say. "Oh fuck it," Kevin hit call. It rang three times.
"Hello."
"Hi," Kevin jumped up, "it is Kevin. We met in Dallas at."
"Hey," Madison laughed, "I was wondering if you were going to call."
"I was, hmm," Kevin rubbed his hair.
"So what you up to," Madison could hear how nervous he was. It was cute, most guys tried to impress her. Or acted as if she should be happy they called her.
"I am actually home, till tomorrow," Kevin answered.
"You guys have a rough schedule."
"Yeah," Kevin agreed.
"So where are you to tomorrow," Madison asked.
" Knoxville Tennessee."
"Really," Madison voice sounded happy. "Would it be ok if I came maybe we could meet up?"
"Yeah," Kevin answered. "I could leave some tickets."
"I got them," he could hear her typing, "call me when you got a few minutes and we can meet up."
"Good sounds good," Kevin tried not to sound as nervous as he was.
"See you then."
…..
Kevin thought of nothing but Madison the whole day. She text him to let him know she was in town. Text him her seats. "Dude you are a mess," Sami laughed.
"No I am not," Kevin huffed. "I just feel like I am twelve or something."
"Why," Sami asked.
"Have you seen this girl," Kevin all but yelled, "she is beyond beautiful. Hell she makes a living being beautiful."
"And," Sami pressed.
"I just don't know why," Kevin stopped. He didn't want to talk about it.
"She is interested in you," Sami raised his eyebrow. "Kevin just meet up with her, have fun."
Kevin nodded, he had a hard time being in the moment. Right now life was about getting ahead. You had to be on top of everything. Stand out from everyone. You couldn't slow down, because someone would run you over. "I mean I don't even know."
"Kevin stop," Sami looked at his friend. "Just enjoy whatever this is. And relish in the fact, that half the man's locker room are beyond jealous."
…
Madison sat with her friend, "you are really here for Kevin Owens."
"I am here cause I like wrestling," Madison crossed her legs.
"But you have been texting him all day."
"Yeah," Madison shook her head. She brought her friend Rose. She wasn't sure if Kevin would be available or even want to see her. Once most man found out what she did for a living they run. Or jealousy showed up. Madison believed she had a work life and a personal life. She kept them separate.
"I do appreciate you coming," Madison turned to Rose.
"Well what are friends for," Rose smiled. She knew Madison must have been interested. Madison kept herself pretty guarded. They both knew what people thought about them. "Plus what women wouldn't want to watch fit man roll around with each other." They both laughed.
"We should throw dollars," Madison laughed.
…
"We can take my car."
"Ok," Kevin typed back, "I can meet you at the side of the building."
"Five minutes?"
"Yes," Kevin grabbed his bag and hoped to sneak out before anyone saw him.
"Kevin," Kevin stopped closing his eyes.
"Dolph," Kevin turned, see Dolph all smiles.
"Where are you running off to?"
"Just leaving," Kevin answered.
"Wouldn't be running off to see Madison Harley," Dolph gave his best announcer voice. Kevin groaned.
"Have a good night," Kevin turned to leave. He never really liked Dolph, he was cocky. He had been there for year and while he had many accomplishments, he made sure that everyone knew them.
"Lucky you," Dolph called out, "she is a nice," Kevin reached the door before Dolph could finish.
…
Madison waved from the driver's seat. Kevin slid in, "hi."
"Hi," Madison put the car in drive and started out. "This is my friend Rose," Rose nodded and Kevin waved. "We are at the Hilton downtown. I was going to drop Rose off, and there is a restaurant right there. Maybe we could eat?"
"Yeah," Kevin nodded, "we are at the Hilton, what floor are you on."
"Fourth," Madison answered.
"Sami and I have a room on the sixth floor."
"How long are you here," Madison asked.
"Just till tomorrow." They pulled into the hotel. Kevin jumped out walking around opening Madison's door. Rose gave a grin as Kevin did the same for her.
"Nice to meet you Kevin," Rose nodded, "hope you two have a nice night."
"Night," Kevin smiled, "ready," he turned to Madison.
They made their way to the restaurant. "I am glad we could get together," Madison opened her menu.
"Your friend could have came," Kevin bit his lip, "I mean I feel bad."
"Ok," Madison put her menu down, "I am just going to put this out there."
"Oh my god," they both turned to a group of man. "You are Madison Harley." Madison let out a deep breathe.
"Yep," she smiled.
"We have to get a picture," before she could answer they were crowding in on her and snapping pictures. Kevin stood.
"Ok, you got your picture, move on."
"You are Kevin Owens," one talked, causing the few people who hadn't noticed to turn around.
"Why don't we just go," Madison stood. She took Kevin by the arm, "sorry," she whispered as she walked by tables.
"Sorry," Madison said once they were outside.
"We didn't have to leave," Kevin felt frustrated. They didn't have the right to ruin their night.
"I just wanted to see you, and," Madison shook her head. "It got messed up."
"People are asses," Kevin was use to people being totally inappropriate. He knew what it felt like. "Come on," Kevin took her hand, "there has to be somewhere we can eat." Madison smiled.
"Maybe we're there are no college age man."
….
Madison and Kevin stood in front of the hotel. "Thank you for tonight," Madison wished she could get a better read on him. "Sorry it got off to a rough start."
"It wasn't your fault," Kevin left nervous. He wasn't sure what to do next. "I can walk you up or," Madison moved closer coming inches from his face.
"Or you could kiss me," Madison pulled Kevin to her face, crushing her lips on his. Kevin pulled her close to him. Madison pulled away, "now you can walk me up." Kevin smiled and was sure he was blushing.
"Well I guess we got that out of the way," Kevin cleared his throat.
"I have been wanting to do that," Madison teased.
"So does this mean you like me," Kevin took her hands in his.
"I think I might," Madison winked.
….
"Didn't think I would see you," Sami joked as Kevin flopped on his bed. "You have fun."
"We went to eat, well we had to leave the first place," Kevin raised his eyebrows.
"Fans," Sami asked, "there were so in the lobby."
"Not wrestling fans," Kevin cut in.
"Oh," Sami realized what Kevin was saying.
"We just left," Kevin shrugged. It was weird, most times he was the one being recognized. People felt you owned them. Some had no sense of the fact that you were a person not just a celebrity. There was a time and place. It was something was not sure if he would ever get use to. He hadn't had many relationship since he came to WWE. Not many could handle their lifestyle. The time it demanded. He never thought he would meet someone who's lifestyle he would have to deal with.
