OK, it's time for some BIG news for our girl, Crimson Vixen. But there's also BIG trouble ahead for our couple in the form of...well, you'll see. Enjoy!

Chapter 12

January 25, 2008

Louisville Kentucky

Dawn POV

It's a new year! I can't believe we're almost a full month into 2008. We have all received an early call summoning us into a special mandatory meeting at the OVW training center. Everyone is speculating what this is all about. But right now, I'm just concerned with riding out yet another amazing orgasm Drew has given me. He is still inside me after cumming so intensely, my neighbors banged on the wall screaming at us to shut up.

This made us both laugh, with that damn devil saying, "I guess that's a sign of a job well done!"

We just celebrated four months as a couple. We got to spend Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years together. I took him home with me to North Carolina for the first two. It was a beautiful special time for us both, our bond growing deeper every moment.

His parents and brother thanked me for taking such good care of him. Seeing the closeness between them on Skype was so sweet, but you could see the sadness in their eyes not having him home at Christmas.

It was great to be home in North Carolina to see family and friends, but things are still weird between Mama and Drew. You could cut the tension with a butter knife between them, but they both managed to behave themselves.

There was no way I was gonna let him spend the holidays by himself all alone in a foreign country. We even had Stu tag along, and for some reason, Mama really likes him! I guess it's because he's not dating her daughter. I'm pretty sure my best friends were playing Rock Paper Scissors to see who would make a move on him.

But back to the present, we finally made it to the meeting. We join the others sitting in the seats by the ring, including a smirking Stu. He pipes up, "You two sure ran behind this morning. Enjoy your Scottish breakfast, Red?"

Drew slapped him on the back of the head and yelled, "Seriously, ya tosser? Just broadcast it on tha PA system next time!" All I can do is just laugh. I really did enjoy my "breakfast"…and "dinner" the night before… and my "midnight snack"…

But I notice there is a strange feeling in the air. Everyone, even the normally unshakable dickhead Ryan Reeves, is quiet and looks apprehensive. I'm sitting between Drew and Stu, the latter asking, "What in the bloody hell is going on? If they're releasing the lot of us, I wish they'd get it over with so I can go pack and figure out my next move!"

I start to say something positive when both Al and Danny come out of their office, ready to address us. And HOLY SHIT, Stephanie McMahon is with them! I gulp as they all approach us for their big announcement, whatever it is. Al starts it off, "Thank you all for coming this early. We know you need your rest, but we needed to speak to you all about something very important."

I see Danny's shoulders go slack as he exhales. OK, this is not good. Danny isn't normally this emotional. His voice starts to crack as he says, "Every single one of you have made your marks here. I personally signed most of you within the WWE system, and I know you will continue to make me all proud. However, officially in two weeks, WWE is pulling its farm system from here at OVW."

There is collective gasp, then dead silence, amongst all of us. Serena and Milena, sitting behind me, both reach up and grasp my shoulders. Danny continues, "The company has made the decision to house all of its training system with FCW. Those of you that do not have WWE contracts will stay here with me like normal. For those of you with WWE, you will either be sent to Tampa or given your releases. That is when Stephanie is here. She will speak to each of you about the current plans for you."

Stephanie, looking gorgeous in a business suit with a mid-thigh pinstriped skirt, tells us, "Thank you all for all your hard work and determination. I know none of this change will be easy for you, however great character is discovered when you face change and adversity. I will read off the list of names of those who will report to FCW first…"

She starts to list them and, sure enough, both Drew and Stu are mentioned. As is Serena, Milena and that creeper Ryan Reeves along with others. Stephanie then pauses and says, "And I'm proud to announce that both Paul Burchill and Katie Lea will be joining the ECW brand."

There is an applause from the gang, but that's when I realize…my name has not been mentioned yet. Oh no! I've been released! I'm nearly in tears as I see Drew's concerned face look at me. He raises his hand and breaks in with their discussion, "Excuse me, Ms. McMahon. What about Dawn? She's under WWE contract as well."

Al and Stephanie both look over at me, but Danny walks over to me. Jesus, I'm gonna be fired in front of everyone! I'm so humiliated! As he reaches me, I see him smile. He looks back at Stephanie, who is also grinning, and back to me. He announces, "That's a big part of the reason Stephanie is here. A big congratulations, Kid. You're joining the Smackdown brand!"

My brain just went into a whirlwind. No way I just heard this correctly. They can't be talking about me. Oh shit! With me still slack jawed and dazed, Stephanie joins him and says, "Yes, Dawn. I need to meet with you in private. We have some very big plans for you. Come into Al's office and let's talk."

The three of them start to lead me into the office, but I am pulled into a big bear hug from Drew. He is beaming from ear to ear with that gorgeous dimpled smile. He gives me a quick kiss and says, "Oh my god, mo ghraidh! This is brilliant! I'm sa proud of ya!"

I don't even have the wherewithal to react as I am pulled into Danny's office for a meeting about my future. I look back at Drew. He looks so happy at first, but then I see he smile fade as he looks down. I can't even comprehend what any of this means as the door closes behind me. The only thing I know is my life will never be the same when it opens again.

Drew POV

Jesus fuck! This meeting with Dawn is taking ferever! She's been in there for what seems like eternity. I'm trying to work out with Stu, trying to blow off steam about this news. I can't believe I'm already being moved ta Florida. I wonder if it'll be as much of a culture shock as Kentucky was when I first arrived. I've heard it's warmer there, which is good. I came from Scotland hoping ta escape the cold, but it's been like ice here fer the last few months.

But right now, Dawn is all I can think about. She's made it. She's gonna be a huge star. I just know it. Gods, I'm sa damn proud of her! She's worked sa damn hard fer this. I'm dying ta know of these big plans they have fer her.

But I have sa many conflicted feelings right now. What about us? Our relationship. Our love. Will it be affected by this change? What if she gets on the road and decides she'd rather be with another wrestler and leaves me behind? Will she move ta Florida?

Not ta mention my own insecurities I never talk about with her. Why wasn't I called up too? I've been there before. I know I needed some polishing, but was I that bad that I'm not even considered fer a call up now? Christ, I'm gonna make mahself mental if I keep stewing on this shit!

Stu returns after making a call and proudly boasts, "I just rang up Sheamus. I told him to get his place in Florida ready because he's getting two new roomies! He sounded less than enthused." When I don't answer right away, he pokes mah chest and says, "Oi, Galloway. You're a million miles away. Or just a few feet away behind that door."

I shrug, "I dunno, mate. I don't know how her call up is gonna change things with Dawn and I."

He rolls his eyes and grumbles, "For fuck's sake, why does it have to change anything? She may not be lying in the bed with you every night, but who says it will affect how you two feel about each other? Don't assume anything."

I'm getting ready to retort with stories I've heard about how this business can destroy relationships when I see Dawn emerge from Al's office. She is smiling and gets hugs from All, Danny and Stephanie. I hear her happily say, "I promise I will not let any of you down!"

As they call in Katie and Paul inta tha office fer a discussion, Dawn wanders over to us. Her eyes are wide, almost despondent or catatonic, and she's breathing heavily. I take her face in my hands and ask, "Dawn, what happened? Are ya OK?"

She nods and mumbles, "Holy shit! They want me at the Royal Rumble to observe backstage. Then, they want me to start the Smackdown after and…"

I'm getting impatient with her (but why?) and I say, "And? And what, Dawn? Yer starting ta scare me!"

She looks up at me and smiles, "I'm going to immediately start a program with Beth Phoenix over the WWE Women's Championship. And if it goes well, it will culminate in a match at Wrestlemania! Holy fuck, I just said that out loud!"

Now it's my turn for widened eyes as I pull her tightly into a hug, "Mo ghraidh! That's incredible!"

Stu smiles at her, "That's brilliant, love. You're gonna smash it on the main roster! Can't wait til we're up there with you!"

She jumps back with a gasp and puts her hand on her mouth, "Oh god! I'm so sorry! I shouldn't be going on about this. Y'all are having to upheave your lives again and move for developmental. I'm being so selfish."

Stu stops her right way, "Nonsense. You should be very proud of yourself, Dawn. And don't worry about us. We get to bug the shit out of Stephen down in Tampa. Right, Drew?"

I nod as I'm still struggling on what else ta say ta her. She looks at me with those beautiful green eyes and tell me, "So, I was able to get six seats for Smackdown, but only one for the Royal Rumble. Do you want to be my plus one in Madison Square Garden?"

I am flabbergasted and fumbling over mah words, "Me? I'd love ta! But wouldn't ya rather take yer mom? I know she sacrificed a lot ta get ya here."

She looks at me stricken and pulls away from me, "Yes, she has, and she will be there for my debut. But I thought that neither of us have ever been to New York City before and I thought we could have a romantic date night for just us. But if you don't wanna go with me, that's fine."

I put mah hand up and wave, "Nah, it's nothing like that. I'm honored ta be seen on the arm of the sweetest, sexiest gal on tha Smackdown roster. I can't wait ta celebrate this with ya, mo ghraidh."

Dawn POV

What in the hell just happened? Why is Drew acting strange towards me? I can see it all over his face and in his demeanor. When I said my life would change when I walked out that door, I didn't mean like this. It's like some mysterious disconnect has infiltrated our relationship in a matter of moments, and I don't like it.

I barely even heard Serena tell me about the party at Nowhere Bar for tonight, the last hurrah for those of us in WWE developmental. I nod my head and acknowledge to Drew he will come to my apartment around 7:30 tonight. My head is now swimming with not just the excitement of being a WWE Superstar, but the sadness of an uncertain future with Drew.

I'm trying to hold it together back at my apartment as I call Mama and tell her to not make any plans for January 29th because she is going to Reading, PA to watch her daughter debut on Smackdown. She instantly started screaming her lungs out. I could hear the sobs and breaks in her voice, "You made it, baby girl! You did it! Oh my god, I'm so proud of you!"

I sigh and say, "Thank you, Mama. I could've never done this with you. This is for you as much as it is for me."

She shuts that down, "No Dawn. This is all for you. Anything I did to help this to happen was to help you live your dream. But you are the one that put in the hard work. You made your dream come true, not me. And what's going on with that tone of voice? You seem a little sad. Did something else happen?"

I shake my head and lie to her, "No. I'm good. I guess I'm just still in shock. I wasn't expecting this at all."

She says, "I know, as long as you're sure there's nothing else to talk about, I'll let you get back to getting ready."

I want to talk to her about what I'm feeling like I do with everything else, but the last thing I wanna hear right now is 'I told you so' about Drew, especially since I'm not really sure if I'm reading the situation correctly. I just shrug and say, "I'm sure. I need to phone the girls and let them know. By the way, I'm moving back to North Carolina for the time being until I see how the main roster thing works out. If it does once my money starts to come in, I'm gonna buy that house on the water for you, Mama."

It's like I can hear her smile on the other end of the phone, "Oh, my sweet girl! Nothing will make me happier than to have a girl home with me. I love you, baby girl."

I answer with a grin, "I love you too, Mama." I press the Stop button on the phone and proceed to finish up my round of calls to the girls. Keeping those short were a minor miracle in itself, especially with Denise.

I just manage to finish getting ready on time, with my strapless black dress and cute red heels, when Drew knocks on my door with Stu in tow. He smiles and ducks inside when I answer, "Hey beautiful. Ya ready fer tha party?" He kisses me, earning an eye roll from Stu.

I force a smile and say, "Yes. Let's go. The last dance of the WWE kids at OVW!"

Drew POV

OK, this strange tension between me and Dawn is really starting ta bug me. She's being very quiet and acting aloof. Is she already starting ta pull away from me? Or can she sense I'm worried about us? Either way, the longer this party goes, the more irritated I get. I notice her leaving the main bar area, heading out to the patio area. The place of our perfect first kiss.

I excuse mahself from the guys and go towards the door. The closer I get, I can hear she has tit on speaker…with a guy! Motherfucker, it's Nic Nemeth! Aye, I'm eavesdropping in on their conversation, goddamn it!

"Hey Nic!"

"Red! I heard the great news! I'm so proud of you, kid!"

She sounds way too happy as she answers, "Thank you! I still can't believe it!"

"You should. I told you how incredible you are. Smackdown is lucky to have you! Since I got called up to Raw, maybe we'll get to hang out at house shows."

"I'd really like that, Nic. I've missed you.

I am starting to seethe when he says, "Not as much as I've missed you, Red. I mean that. Seriously, this bimbo they had me teamed with in FCW doesn't know a wristlock from a wristwatch. Dumb as fuck. Is your boyfriend getting called up too?"

"No, not yet. I'm sure it will be no time at all though. I'm moving back home to North Carolina until I get my first few paychecks under me."

"That's great. I know your mom is excited about that. Ah, I gotta go. My brother, Ryan, is bugging the shit outta me. I'm not in the Royal Rumble, but I'll be at the show. Can't wait to see you, Red."

"I can't wait either. Bye, Nic."

I've heard enough! I demand from her, "What tha fuck was that about? Huh? Ya can't wait ta see Nic? And what's this bullshit about moving back to North Carolina? Yer not joining me in Tampa?"

She jumps and her eyes look more hurt as she tirades at me, "Jesus Christ, Drew! Scare the shit outta me next time! What has you so pissed at me? Because I dared to talk to Nic? He called me to congratulate me on moving to the main roster. No need to yell at me about it!"

I practically snarl sarcastically, "Oh I heard, Dawn! 'Can't wait ta see ya, Red'. I bet he can't!"

I can see her eyes move from hurt to anger as she lashes out, "Excuse me? What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Where the hell is this coming from? I have never given you a reason to act like this! You have acted weird as hell all day since you found out I'm moving to the main roster. Why…"

A moment of realization creeps across her face and she starts to really let me have it, "Oh my god! You're mad at me? For getting called up? I don't fucking believe this! Are you kidding me right now? You got called up and I did nothing but be supportive and proud of you! But me? No, Drew's fragile little ego can't take the office not throwing down the red carpet for you! Maybe that female writer had no say so this time! You're not ready for the main roster and you said so yourself!"

I scream at her, "Oh, that's fucking nice of ya ta throw that shit about that twat in mah face! Why are you moving to North Carolina? You're not even on the show yet and you're already tired of me? Gonna trade me in fer that bleached blonde asshole?"

I see the tears of frustration form in those green orbs and I start to weaken at the site. I'm already regretting all my harsh, unnecessary words. She is right. She was nothing short of amazing ta me when I was called up. And she's stayed by mah side encouraging me this whole time. And here I am making assumptions and getting pissy with her fer no reason.

But Dawn is not a meek and mild gal. She rails at me, "Well, if you would have asked me like a normal human being and not some jealous asshole, I would've told you that I'm saving to move both Mama and myself down to Saint Petersburg! It's been her lifelong dream to live in Florida and I wanna do it right for her! I want to buy a house for us instead of moving from place to place. I was planning on spending most of the days I'm not on the road down in Florida with you. But I guess you won't have to worry about that! I didn't deserve what you just said to me! I won't take this treatment from anyone, especially not someone I thought I could love enough to spend the rest of my life with!"

I feel like I've been slapped in the face with my own stupidity. And…she wants ta spend the rest of her life with…fuck! Why does that thought scare the shit outta me and thrill me ta no end at the same time? I go ta tha railing of the patio, the exact spot where we had our first kiss four months ago. I can't believe I snapped on her like that. She's right about everything. I crossed tha line and I should've known better. Dawn would never do anything ta hurt me. Goddamn it, I'm sa stupid!

Lost in mah own thoughts I don't hear her scream, "FUCK YOU, DREW!", until it's too late. I look up and Dawn is gone. I panic and start ta run back inta tha club. I don't see her anywhere. Shit!

I spot Serena with Stu and Milena. I rush over and ask, "Have ya guys seen Dawn?"

Stu looks down, "She left, mate. She was quite upset when she ran out."

Serena doesn't look happy when she asks, "She was crying. What the hell did you say to her, Drew?"

I sigh and grumble, "I was a complete asshole ta her. I need ta find her and make things right. Did she say where she's headed?"

Milena shrugged, "Home, I guess. She didn't say. Better call yourself a cab because we're not leaving the party yet."

I don't appreciate the snark, "I didn't fucking ask ya ta leave, Milena! Ya can kiss my arse! I can call a goddamn cab. Sa sorry if we're spoiling yer fucking party!"

She gets offended, and Stu steps in, "Look, I'll go with you. I need some air anyway. Let's call a cab and head back to the apartments."

As he claps me on the shoulder, Serena glares at me, "You know, she is such a sweet girl, and she fell very hard for you. You were the first person or anything that she ever talked about more than wrestling. I hope you didn't hurt her beyond repair."

I slump my shoulders and simply mumble, "I know. I hope not too.", as Stu and I head ta tha front door.

Dawn POV

I finally made it back to my apartment, but I really don't remember how I got here. I was crying so hard the entire way home that I nearly pulled over to calm myself down. I take off my heels as soon as I close the door, and I sling them both against the door in frustration. I plop down on the couch, sobbing uncontrollably and being pissed at myself for doing so.

I can't believe this shit is really happening! I should've known he was too good to be true. Drew is a selfish prick who only cares about himself. I can't believe I let myself believe that he was different than most guys and that he actually loved me. I really wish I could stop these big tears falling from my eyes and ruining my makeup. He's not worth the salt in them. At least that's what I'm trying to tell myself.

I'm ready get into a hot shower and crawl under my blankets for a few years when there is a knock on my door. I should've known I'd here that goddamn voice in the other side, "Dawn, please let me talk ta ya." I refuse to answer him. I'm beyond livid. I don't owe him any explanation for anything. But he knocks again, this time a little louder, "Dawn, please. I know yer in there. I see yer Jeep in tha parking lot. Please open tha door."

I've walked over and I'm now pressing my face to the other side of the door. Fucking pathetic of me! I try in vain to mask my crying as I tell him, "Drew, go away. I don't wanna talk to you right now. You made it clear that you're angry with me for getting called up, so I don't need to hear anything else you have to say."

I can tell he's leaning against the door and that sexy Scottish accent that normally makes my panties melt off now sounds desperate and sad as he pleads, "Dawn, I'm not mad at ya. Not at all. I'm mad at mahself. I feel tha weight of my country and family's expectations of me ta make ta tha main roster. And tha thought of losing ya once yer out on tha road got ta me. I love ya sa damn much and that dumb idea made me crazy. I'm such an asshole! I didn't mean ta take it out on ya. I'm sa damn sorry I did that ta ya. I really am sa very proud of ya. Yer amazing in every way."

Drew POV

I'm trying not ta cry right now. What I told her was one hundred percent tha truth. I'm terrified of losing Dawn. That's what my stupid temper tantrum boiled down ta. I sigh, hearing nothing else from her, and I push away from her door. I'm ready ta leave a go back ta mah apartment. I deserve this. I should've never yelled at her fer any reason. And my stupidity may've cost me tha best thing that's ever happened ta me.

But then, she slowly opens tha door. She's standing there with no shoes and her makeup is streaked with tears. She's still the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in mah entire life. But those pools in her green orbs kill me. I did that ta her and I don't know if I can ever fergive mahself.

She sniffs and wipe her eyes. She says in a near whisper, "You hurt me, Drew. I've never given you a reason to not trust me. And I've always been supportive of you. I don't understand where this came from."

I shake mah head and walk slowly towards her, "Ya did nothing wrong. I'm a bloody idiot. Please fergive me."

She looks up and down, her back against the doorframe and her arms are folded, and a frown is still in place. I'd give the world ta make her smile again. She says, "I don't want things to change between us either. I love you and I love what we have. This whole change scares me, even more so now with how you acted. I don't wanna lose you either."

I cup her face, and she stiffens up a little. She has never recoiled from me ever. I really fucked things up, goddamn me! I tell her, "Dawn, please look at me." She finally locks eyes with me and I melt, "I love ya. Yer everything ta me. I'm sah sorry. They'll never be another gal fer me but ya, mo ghraidh."

She's silent at first, but then she cranes her neck up and kisses me with those full delicious lips. I feel an overwhelming rush of love and lust sweep over me and deepen the kiss plunging my tongue into her mouth without waiting for an invite. She reciprocates my efforts, grabs mah jacket lapel and pulls me inside, slamming the door.

I waste no time after she pushes my coat off mah shoulders and starts unbuttoning mah teal dress shirt. I reach around and unzip her dress with such force, it practically rips as I push it down past her incredible curves. I scoop her inta my arms roughly and carry her inta her bedroom. I set her down we continue ta practically tear each other's clothes off.

I gently shove her back on the bed and pull her panties from her waist and down those sexy fucking legs. I kneel down on the floor, grab her around the thighs and bodily haul her pussy ta tha edge of the bed. She gasps at this action and I murmur, "Gods, I fucking love ya, Dawn. I'm down on mah knees fer ya. I'll literally do anything ta have ya, mo ghraidh."

My head dips down and I eat her out like I'm fucking starving ta death without that sweet taste on mah lips. She immediately starts moaning and pulls mah hair at the top. I lick those pretty pink folds and slip mah tongue inside her. She's already cum fer me. She screams, "Oh god! Drew! Fuck, I love it when you eat my pussy! Fuck! Shit! Aaah!"

That last incoherent word happens when I insert mah pointer and finger fingers inside as I flatten mah tongue ta her clit, working mah digits in and out as the friction from me in that tiny nub has her hollering even louder. She is sa worked up, I feel her cunt throb in mah chin and she quirts her juices all over mah face.

She is whimpering as I come up to her at eye level and kiss her. I want her tah taste what I crave, what I do tah her. At tha same time, I hook her knees around mah forearms, spreading her legs nice and wide. Her lips slip down ta mah neck. Oh fuck me hard, I love it when she does that! She's trying ta buck her hips against mah swollen head, but my arms have her helpless. She cries ta me, "Please fuck me, Baby! I love you! I want you inside me, goddamn it!"

I smile down at her and simply say, "All ya had ta do was ask, mo ghraidh." With a snap of mah hips, I deliver a pounding thrust hilt deep inside and it feels like I'm in heaven. She squeals as plunger harder and deep into her tight heat in a rapid-fire motion. I need ta fuck her. She needs tah know how much I love her.

My brain is telling me ta slow down, but mah cock refuses ta listen as I smash inta her with a power I didn't even know I possess. As I feel her climax, those honey like walls clinching around me like a vice grip, I feel mah end is approaching. I yell loudly, "Fuck! I love ya, mo ghraidh! I'm about ta cum! SHIT!"

I grunt as I feel my seed spill out inside her in a wave. I slow down mah thrusting until the last drop seeps out from me. I collapse on top of her and look down and see her crying. She reaches up and touches my cheek and sobs, "Please, let's not ever fight like that again. I need you to talk to me if something bothers you. I love you, Drew."

I sigh and kiss her on the forehead and concede, "Please don't cry, mo ghraidh. Yer right. I'm sa sorry I'm thick in tha head. I love ya more than anything, Dawn."

I withdraw from her and plop mah head down on the pillow next tah her. I pull her close ta me and wrap my arms tightly around her. She lays her head on mah chest and softens her sobs. I exhale a big breath of relief. My selfishness and stupidity almost cost me mah dream girl.

But even though we may have solved our issue this time, I can still some weird tension in tha air as we both start to lose ourself to an exhausted sleep. Maybe it's the uncertainty of everything with her call up. Nah, that's not it. I can't shake this fucking feeling that something, or someone, out there is against us, biding its time, just waiting on the perfect time tah strike and tear us apart.

Tampa, Florida

Nic POV

It felt so good to talk to Dawn earlier. I hate being dow here without her in Tampa. I missed hearing her sweet voice. I've just missed her. She doesn't know that I'm madly in love with her. I want to be with her so bad, but she has never seen me in that way.

Plus, her damn boyfriend. He's no good for her and I meant it when I told her that I had a feeling he was bad for her. I don't want to see her hurt. She deserves better than some pretty boy from Scotland that will only break her heart. That's why I made a deal with the devil.

And speaking of the damn devil herself, Taryn Terrell is calling me…AGAIN! She gets on my fucking nerves. They paired me with her when we were in FCW and I couldn't stand it. She sucks so bad and I know she doesn't give a shit about pro wrestling. She only did that Diva Search to raise her modeling profile and get off the Playboy cyber site and into the actual magazine. Pathetic!

But, when Taryn asked me about Drew after seeing a picture of him when they announced today who was joining FCW from OVW, I told her he was dating Dawn and it was serious. She didn't like that at all. She wants him bad all of a sudden for some reason, and somehow even a brainless botch like her can figure out how I feel about Dawn. Goddamn it, I guess I should answer so she and her nauseating voice will go the fuck away!

"What do you want, Taryn?"

"Nicky, did you talk to the little redhead cunt?"

"Stop talking shit about Dawn, you two bit slut! And yes, I talked to her."

"Did Drew hear you?"

"How the fuck should I know? I wasn't on video. What the hell do you want?"

"I wanna make sure we're clear on this plan, you dumb shit! You help me get Drew, I'll help you land little fucking Ariel when I snatch him away. No way he can resist this if we both do our parts to keep them separated."

"Yes, I know the plan. I fucking hate it almost as much as I hate you, but…"

"But you want HER, and you'll do as I say. Right?!"

"Whatever, Taryn. Just leave me the hell alone for now. Bye, bitch!"

As I press the Stop button, I'm pissed at myself for agreeing to this. Dawn is happy with Drew. She loves him. But I want her. When he does finally find his way into Taryn's bed, I'll be there as her shoulder to cry on. And she'll eventually fall in love we me.

Or so I keep telling myself. Fucking goddamn it, I hate myself for this!
