Cora-
Colby stayed an extra week, not wanting to leave. Chris and I were at the hospital doing some volunteer work. We were on our break when a guy came over.
"Hello", he said.
"Hi", we replied.
"I'm Jason", he said.
"Chris and this is Cora, my sister", Chris said.
"Can I sit?", he asked.
We nodded and he sat.
"So do you two work here? Never seen you around before", he said.
"Volunteers", Chris said.
"And you?", I asked.
"Nurse", he said.
"But you're a guy", I said.
Chris nudged me. He chuckled and nodded.
"Yes, guys can be nurses too", he said smiling.
"Noted", I said.
"So why did you choose to volunteer here?", he asked.
"I came here. They helped me when I was sick, this is my way of kinda paying them back", Chris said.
"So you're better now?", he asked.
She nodded.
"So Justin, you live here in Seattle?", I asked.
"It's Jason and yes I do, born and raised", he said.
"We're from Pensacola, Florida", I said.
"I've been there on vacation", he said.
"Well good for you", I said.
I continued eating.
"So why'd you stay in Seattle?", he asked.
"You ask a lot of questions", I pointed out.
"Cora", Chris mumbled.
"What, he does", I whispered.
He laughed.
"Sorry. Its just, your sister's really pretty and I couldn't pass up the chance to meet her", he said.
I knew that was the reason why he was sitting with us. I didn't like this guy at all.
"Oh, do you have a boyfriend? Sorry", he said.
"No I don't", she said quickly.
I glared at her.
"We have to go", I said, getting up.
"Oh okay, well maybe we can hang out sometime? Here", he said.
He took out a pen and grabbed a napkin. He wrote something down and handed it to her. I saw his number.
"Call me sometime", he said, smiling at her.
"Yeah", she nodded.
He left and I pinched Chris.
"Ouch. What was that for?", she asked.
"Joe", I said.
She rolled her eyes. She stood and we threw our trash away.
"Cora", I heard loud.
I turned to see Scott coming towards me, angry. Before he could reach me, Colby rushed passed me down the hall. He punched Scott hard and then over and over again.
"You fucking put your hands on my girl", Colby yelled.
"Colby stop", I yelled.
Chris stood there watching.
"Help me", I said.
"Why? Scott deserves it", she said.
Jason grabbed Colby and lifted him off of Scott. Scott's face was covered in blood.
"You come near Cora again and you're dead", Colby yelled.
"Get the fuck out of here before I call the cops", Jason yelled at Scott.
Scott got up and took off, covering his mouth. Jason let go of Colby.
"Thanks Justin", I said.
"Its Jason", he corrected.
"Colby, you okay?", I asked.
"I'm fine babe", he said.
I took his hand and looked at his knuckles.
"Let's get a doctor to take a look at them", I said.
"I can do it. A doctor would just ask questions", Jason said.
"Thanks man", Colby said.
They shook hands. Following Jason down the hall.
"Stop being nice to him, we hate him", I whispered to Colby.
"Okay, why?", he asked.
"He asked Chris out", I said.
"Cora", he sighed.
"No, she has to save herself for Joe. He is the only guy she has ever slept with", I said.
Colby chuckled.
"I think that flew out the window when she slept with Ryan", he said.
"That doesn't count. This guy was charming, too charming", I said.
"Cora, he had his chance and he didn't take it", he said.
"You don't understand", I said.
Jason had Colby hop on the hospital bed and he cleaned his knuckles and wrapped them.
"Okay, tomorrow just take the wrap off and clean them again", he said.
"Got it dude, thanks", Colby said.
"Yeah thanks Mason", I said.
"Your close, its Jason", he said.
I nodded.
"Got it", I said.
He chuckled and left.
"So tell me how I don't understand", he said.
"Chris and Joe have been together since they were kids and something so special like that doesn't just disappear", I said.
"Babe, it didn't disappear, it was put on hold", he said.
"I just wish, by some miracle he would just show up or we could run into him out of the blue and he would sweep her off her feet", I said.
"You think we'd get along?", he asked.
"Definitely. He was like an older brother to me, saved my butt one time", I said.
"What does he do?", he asked, jumping off the bed.
"Last we heard he was playing football but after college, we just lost track", I said.
He nodded.
"Well if its meant to be it will be", he said.
"That's what everyone says", I groaned.
He laughed.
"Let her go out with this guy. We can even double, who knows she might not like him after that", he said.
"And what if you're wrong? What if she ends up marrying this guy?", I asked.
"Then she marry's him", he said.
"I won't accept that", I said, turning away.
Colby-
I had won and I was now Ring of Honor champion. Jason and Chris had been dating a couple of months now, Cora wasn't too happy with it. Chris was now a vet and looking for a clinic she could work at.
I was in Seattle to see Cora. We had decided that long distance was good for now and moving in could wait till I found a permanent home for us. I had asked Chris to lunch to discuss something.
"So why'd you want to meet?", she asked.
"Well I got an offer from WWE. Now before you get excited it will be with the developmental and I'm hoping it will be my last stop", I said.
"So why haven't you said yes? That's awesome", she said.
"I also got an offer from another company called TNA and ROH wants me back", I said.
"Well if you're finally thinking of settling down, you need to pick one you know you're gonna have a future in. A long future", she said.
