I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.

A/N: TODAY WAS MY FIRST DAY BACK IN COLLEGE AFTER A SEMESTER OFF SO WITH THAT BEING SAID (EVEN THOUGH I'M CURRENTLY HAVING THE DOCUMENT OPEN AND TYPING AWAY AT IT, WELL NOT REALLY SINCE I'M TYPING THIS BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN) MY ABILITY TO WORK ON THIS STORY MAY BE SLIMMED DOWN A BIT BUT I WILL TRY MY DARNEST TO WORK ON IT AS MUCH AS I CAN WHEN I HAVE FREE TIME AFTER I FINISH HOMEWORK OR I WILL COME UP WITH SOME KIND OF SCHEDULE WITH MY FREE TIME TO DIVIDE BETWEEN THIS STORY AND MY HOMEWORK BUT THAT IS GOING TO GET HAIRY AS WELL WITH TWO WEDDINGS COMING UP IN THE NEAR FUTURE (NOT MY WEDDINGS). I'LL STRIDE THROUGH THIS SO PLEASE BARE WITH ME.

After working on the notes for what seemed like ever, Jeff asked if I was hungry and of course I was hungry by now so we decided to take a break from it now. Jeff left the camcorder where it was as I wasn't sure why because I would think he would put that up and I won't have to do this ever again. I followed him into the kitchen to see what was about to be cooked and it was just sandwiches with some water, but hey it was food in my stomach so I wasn't complaining and it was a break from me standing in the middle of the living room talking and talking and talking about anything and everything that came to mind which probably didn't make any sense. "Now that we have recorded some different promos, some good and some bad, mostly bad…what are you going to do with them? I am hoping that you erase it." I said honestly as I glanced to the camera then looked to Jeff who was sitting across from me at his small dining room table.

"Erase it? Why? I am going to show Matt it tonight and we will edit it down to the one that we both like and then make it into a video clip and erase this tape then record you wrestle with either myself or another student, probably Heather, to add to the promo that we will eventually burn to multiple DVDs that we will help you mail out to different promoters to help get you booked on their upcoming shows…which brings me to talk to you about your resume for wrestling…"

"I don't have one." I said taking a bite out of my sandwich.

"Yeah, you need to create one."

"But I don't have much of a resume if I haven't been booked yet." I said confused as I set my sandwich back down onto the plate.

"Leave it to us…we can make the resume golden with the lack of experience you have but right now the DVD will do the talking that is why I am pressuring and working hard on you for these promos."

"Why is that?" I asked curiously.

"The stronger your DVDs look it will make up for the lack of your resume…so that is why you need a strong promo done."

"Has any of the ones done strong enough?" I asked curiously as I crossed my legs not really wanting to eat anymore because I am nervous and worried that I was even cut out for this wrestling thing.

"Not that strong but over time you will get better…think that there was at least one or two on there that I want to upload as a back up promo as we continue practicing these promos and get that solid promo that we think will get you that first booking. Once you get that first booking, it will be easier to get booked again through that promotion, once you are in with that one promotion then you got it."

"Why don't you and Matt let me perform on your show?" I asked curiously as he just looked at me.

"That I do not know…I totally forgot about our promotion…" Jeff said as he sat back in his chair crossing his arms over his chest, "Either way you need a little more work before our next show in two months." Jeff said as he continued eating his food like he was constantly thinking for rest of the meal unsure what he was thinking about.

"You seem to be really thinking over there." I said as I stood up after finishing up my sandwich and grabbing my plate.

"Yeah…" Jeff said as I grabbed his plate and took it with me as I wasn't sure what he was thinking really. I walked back out to join him after rinsing off the dishes and putting them to join rest of the dirty dishes into the dishwasher.

"Shall we continue?" I asked, 'I did not just ask if I could continue working on promos, what is wrong with me?' I had thought to myself.

"You are actually volunteering to continue? I thought you were hating this whole thing?" Jeff asked with a chuckle.

"I am but if I need to strengthen my promo game then practice makes perfect." I said with a shrug shoving my hands into my pockets as Jeff nodded. He stood up pushing his chair into the table before I followed him back out to the living room resuming my spot from before without even having to have a mark of where to stand, I just knew where to stand as I pushed my fingers through my hair messing it up some trying to think of what I haven't already said or what I have already said and jumbling it up some to see if anything I had said would sound better mixed up some. The wheels in my head was turning as I was trying to think, "Is thinking of these promos always so hard?" I asked as I rubbed my hands together nervously.

"Yes, you will soon get used to and accustomed to them, and it won't be so on the spot like this where you have nothing to talk about really. Consider these exercises and character building." Jeff stated as I nodded as I ran my hand through my hair yet again as I recited the promo in my head yet again before I decided to just go with that.

"I think I am ready." I said as Jeff nodded as he counted down backwards from five before he pointed at me to give it a go and I went for it before I talked until I ran out of things to talk about getting Jeff to turn off the camcorder.

"I think that was the best and strongest promo you have had this far." Jeff said honestly as I smiled.

"Really? You really mean that?" I asked kind of excitedly.

"Absolutely…" Jeff said smiling his bright smile.

"So, should we go for another one or two?" I asked curiously as he smiled.

"You beginning to like this?" Jeff asked.

"Yes and no. Yes on the level I think the more I do it, the more of getting into the swing of speaking, getting into my character and be able to be more comfortable in front of a camcorder and perform. No, because I still hate it because I just feel I am not doing well or that I am performing a bad promo." I said as I ran another hand through my hair.

"You can hate it all you want, the more you practice the more comfortable you will be with it all and you will be able to learn to love it or deal with it." Jeff said as I nodded as I knew that he was right and I completely trusted Matt and Jeff's opinion.

"Then let's get to rolling then enigma." I said as he just burst out laughing.

"Whatever you say." Jeff said as he let out a couple more chuckles and rolled his eyes before he pushed the record button letting me perform yet another promo that I didn't really have time to rehearse in my head and knew this would have to be the worse one yet.

"That had to be the worse promo I have done thus fair." I said with a chuckle and smile.

"I wouldn't say that." Jeff said as I was shocked and was kind of took aback that he had even said that to me.

"You mean that? What has been the worse one this far?"

"I was trying to make you feel better, relax." Jeff said with a smile as I sighed and chuckled.

"Thanks but I seriously thought you meant it." I said.

"Next time do you want me to tell you that I was joking?"

"Please…" I said smiling as he smiled.

"I think that is enough for today." Jeff said as he turned the camera off and began to take it off the tri pod.

"Are…are you going to show Matt?" I asked nervously and bit at my bottom lip, I was going to be beyond embarrassed when Matt saw it because I know that it wasn't the best.

"Of course, why wouldn't I?" Jeff asked with a shrug as he pushed the tri pod shut and moved it to a safe spot.

"I just know they aren't perfect, would rather wait until they are perfect." I said truthfully.

"Look, April…you want to be booked on shows?"

"Yeah…" I said not sure what he was getting with this.

"Matt will take a look, he has the editing program in which to edit and trim it down to the one promo that you was the best of the best and to help build your video portfolio. I think tonight we will work on filming the matches that you guys put on tonight, in which we will also add to your portfolio and we will make multiple copies and help you mail them out." Jeff explained as I was merely nervous about this.

"Are you going to film everyone else?" I asked.

"Yeah, that way they can see it on film and they can see the mistakes that they make." Jeff said as I nodded.

"Alright." I said nodding.

"Go get ready for class, I'm going to charge up this camera and get a new tape along with a few other things." Jeff said as I nodded.
