What do I say? What do I do? I couldn't force a response to come out of my mouth.
"Are you there Steph? Hello?"
Reluctantly I spoke, "I'm here Rocky. Please don't do this. You know I'm not... I can't meet with you."
He was toying with me now, "You know what, I have my diary here and oh look, Thursday night I'm busy. Well that's unfortunate, no time for any business meetings." He's as good at this as you are!
"You have your diary outside Rocky? Come on I know you're messing with me. Just help me please." My best pleading voice.
"That might have worked princess, if I was your dad. I put an offer on the table, accept it or reject it. It makes no difference to me." Liar!
I tried to sound angry, "Bullshit Rock. You'll be pissed if I turn down your so called offer."
"Ooooohhhh Rock now is it? I made the queen angry."
I pouted, "I don't like that."
He laughed, "Okay you're still the princess then. But my offer isn't going to change. If you want Cena down here Thursday I want to see you. Yes or no?" You shouldn't do this. You really shouldn't do this.
I gave in, "Okay, alright you win. But you must come to me, there's no way I can get away from everyone long enough to come to you. It's only going to be for an hour or so Rocky you need to know that. I'm only having a drink with you that's all this is going to be."
He sounded pleased, "Okay princess whatever you say, any other rules you need to make me aware of?" Yes, don't kiss me.
He continued, "Let's make it Saturday?" I can get away for an hour or two on Saturday. I can come up with something.
"Okay Rocky, you fly over here, check into a hotel. Make it the most expensive one you can find, I don't want any wrestling fans seeing us. Then I'll come and have a drink with you in the bar, but that's it, one drink and I'm gone. Are we clear on that?"
He seemed like he couldn't wait, "You bet princess, I'll call you."
I hissed at him, "You will not call me! I will call you! Never call me, ever."
He laughed, "I love pushing your buttons." He hung up. Bastard, he knew I would yell at him for that and he had enjoyed it. I smiled.
The rest of today would be good now, I knew that for sure. Meet back up with Paul, fly home, pick up the girls from my parents, head home, have a workout and then relax with my family. Everything would be great. Until Thursday, that was going to be another bitch of a day.
