It was Friday evening, and Jon was at his regular wrestling gig, although it wasn't all that regular. Kennedy was 'backstage' with him, before the show began. He gave her a small wristband. It was his title match, and he had been training hard.
"There are some important people coming tonight," He mumbled to no-one in particular. Kennedy walked over to him, and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Important..people."
"Oh yeah? You going to win the title?" She smiled at him, rubbing noses.
"Of course I will.. if I don't, I'll give him a beating for not staying down." He chuckled weakly before regaining focus.
"I'll let you get ready," Kennedy kissed his cheek. He went to pull her in for a kiss – since her lip was healed. "Win and you'll get a surprise." She smiled before kissing his cheek again and grabbing her bag and walking out. Jon smiled.
"Jon Moxley!" Jon walked out, cocky and confident. He saw Kennedy sitting there, watching him, he almost fell out of character but saved himself just in time. The match soon got underway, punches, kicks, flips – all before spilling out onto the floor. Kennedy looked around, and saw some important people lurking – in their fancy clothes. She could spot them from a mile away. As she was busy focusing on something else, she almost missed Jon's finisher, along with his 3 count.
"Your new champion, Jon Moxley!" Jon was estatic, you could see it in his face. Kennedy walked around through the centre and met him backstage. He picked her up, her legs around his waist and he kissed her, not bothering to ask – and it was as amazing as he had expected. Her lips were soft and plump. He pulled away and looked at her. He knew then that the feelings that he had for this girl weren't just 'feelings' They were something serious – and it scared him. The two kissed again, until someone yelled out to go get a room. Kennedy broke the kiss and giggled when Jon gave them the finger. Kennedy jumped down, and Jon turned around to see the fancy people. Jon kissed her quickly before walking away with them.
She sat herself down on one of the couches that they had, and just thought about what happened. Before she could get any further, Jon appeared, a smile still on his face. She stood up. '"I've been offered a wrestling contract with Heartland Wrestling Association." Kennedy smiled. "And I'll be wrestling Saturday nights, maybe even during the week." Kennedy wrapped her arms around the sweaty, new crowned champion, and new member of the HWA team. Jon smiled and kissed her.
"I'm so happy for you," She mumbled to him. "Did you still want to go out?" Jon thought about it.
"Did you want to? We can go back to mine and do a late dinner…" Jon smiled as he kissed her forehead.
"Sure." Kennedy smiled as the two kissed again.
"Shit you're good at cooking." Jon polished off his second bowl of pasta that Kennedy made. "So good."
"Aha, you're welcome. I'm going to see if your mom wants any."
"She's probably shooting up." Jon spoke loudly as Kennedy got up. Kennedy shook her head as she walked down to the bedroom. She saw his mom sitting on the bed, just focusing on nothing.
"You okay?" Kennedy asked as she closed the door behind her. "Did you want some dinner?" Jon's mother looked up, no emotions on her face.
"Can I ask you something?" Jon's mother asked. "Seriously."
"Sure," Kennedy responded, sitting next to her. "What's wrong?"
"Does Jon…look down on me?" She asked. She then shook her head before Kennedy could answer. "No, don't answer that, I know he does. Although, I've noticed…change in him. I think it's because of you.."
"Just a question, Jon's mentioned some things to me. Are you sober at the moment?"
"A few days." She looked up. "It's very difficult, especially having things so easily accessable. But I like seeing Jon this happy… whether it be because he's in love with you, or because he likes seeing me sober.. but I do like seeing him happy." She smiled at Kennedy. "Thank you. For so much." She embraced Kennedy in a hug, to which Kennedy smiled.
"Come get some pasta. I've had a review that it's good." Kennedy and Jon's mother both walked out.
"Oh, please call me Joanne."
Kennedy took Jon to the local Ice-Creamery, and the two sat down in a booth."You know, your mom said something to me before.."
Jon looked at her. "Uh what did she say?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. He started to eat from the ice-cream cup.
"She mentioned uh, " Kennedy started. She didn't want him to freak out about the whole 'in love with you' thing, so she tried to think of another alternative. "How she likes seeing you happy, and she thinks it's because she's sober."
Jon smiled – that wasn't what she was going to say, and he knew it. But he played along. He had something planned for that one.
"I do enjoy the fact that she isn't passed out with a beer bottle in her hand." He smiled and touched Kennedy's hand. "What would you consider us?"
Kennedy felt her heartbeat increase, and her stomach began to do the whole flutter thing again. "Depends what you want us to be." She looked at him, her eyes full of hope that he'd say what she wanted to hear.
"Well… You'd be my first ever girlfriend, and I've already met your parents, and you've met..erm, mine… and we are eating ice-cream.." Jon continued on as he looked up at her. As he did, he felt something cold on his nose. "ARG!"
"I officially claim you as mine." She scrunched up her face as she took another spoonful of ice cream with a smile on her face.
