Jessica’s Secret Love

Written By Kelly

---

Chapter 1

I have watched him so many times since I started in the WWE.  He never fails to set my heart pounding.  I know he is married, or was.  I had heard that he was having some problems in his marriage.  We are friends, not close friends, but friends nonetheless.

I guess I should tell you a little bit about myself.  My name is Jessica; I'm 35 with red hair.  I’m pretty well built being that I’m part of the set up crew.  I help build and take down the ring mostly.  I’m also the gopher while the show is going on.  Anything that any of the wrestlers need, I get for them.  I don't mind it most of the time.  Most of them are pretty nice to me.  Others treat me like I’m a nobody and can order me around.  I've had some bad comments made to me by some of them, but I'll get to that in a little bit.

I’m relaxing at the moment watching Edge's, Adam Copeland's match.  He is the one that sets my heart going wild.  I love to watch him.  He is so athletic and very easy on the eyes.  I start moving towards the curtain knowing that after his match I have to help take the ring down.  As I’m waiting, one of the wrestlers comes over to me.  I look up to see Kurt Angle standing in front of me.

He says, "Hey, I need you to do something for me.  I need you to get my bag and put it in my rental." As he drops his car keys in my hand.

I reply, "Ummm . . . that's not part of my job.  Besides, I have to be here so I can take the ring down.  Sorry."

He says angrily, "Part of your job is doing things for us.  So move it before I get you fired.  Believe me, I can do it too."

I just stand there staring at him wondering what to do.  The old saying pops into my head ˜Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Knowing either way I can get into trouble.

He says, "Well, what are you waiting for?"

Just then Jericho, Chris Irvine, comes up and says, "Is there a problem Angle?  I can hear you yelling down the hall."

At hearing that I put my head down embarrassed.

    Angle says, "Yeah, there's a problem.  I told this person here to get my bag and put it in my car.  She gives me some lame excuse why she can't."

    Chris says, "Well, Angle, she does need to help with the ring.  Besides, she isn't your personal bellboy.  Or rather bellgirl as the case may be.  So do it yourself or I will tell Vince that you're harassing this poor woman.  Now get."

    Angle leaves none too happy.

    Chris asks, "Are you alright?"

    I reply, "Yeah, I’m fine.  That's nothing new from him.  He usually asks me to do that earlier.  I’m used to the way he treats me, no big deal."

    Chris says, "You mean you do that all the time for him?  I mean I know you help out while the show is going on.  I don’t think packing cars is one of them.  Why don’t you say anything?"

    I reply, "Because I don’t want to get fired.  I've only been here a little over a year and I need and want this job.  So, I just deal with it."

    Chris says, "Well, you shouldn't have to deal with it."

    I hear the roar of the crowd.  I look to see Edge and his opponent for the night, Christian, coming up the ramp.

    As Christian, Jason Reso, passes by he stops and says, "Hey Jess.  How's it going?  Any trouble tonight?"

    I give Jason a hug and reply, "It's going okay.  Yeah, there's been the usual trouble."

    Jason says, "Angle again!  I swear I’m gonna beat his ass one of these days."

    Adam says, "What did he do now?"

    I didn't even see him come up behind me.  I say, "You know.  The usual.  He thinks I’m his lackey."

    Chris says, "You guys know about this?  Why haven't you said anything to Vince?"

    Jason says, "She won't let us.  Insists she can deal with it.  So we keep our ears and eyes open.  If it gets any worse than we'll go to Vince.  That much she has agreed to."

    Adam says, "I don’t like it any better than you do Chris.  But, this is how she wants it."

    I say, "well, I'd love to stay and chat but I have a ring to take down.  See ya tomorrow."

    Jason says, "Hey, we're going out later do you want to come with us?"

    I reply, "Thanks, but no thanks.  By the time we are done here you guys will probably be back and asleep.  See ya."

    I head out into the arena to help out.  That's only part of my reason for not going out with them when they ask me.  The other reason is I can’t be around Adam for a long period of time without wanting him even more.  After I’m done at the arena I head out to my car in the parking lot.  I don’t see when someone grabs me from behind and hits me on the side of the head.  I’m semi conscious and able to see that it is Kurt Angle.

    He says, "That'll teach you to disrespect me.  Next time I tell you to do something, you do it."  He stalks off leaving me lying there on the ground.

    After Angle leaves I lay there for a few minutes.  After I feel that I can do it I get up and head to my car.  I barely make it to the hotel.  After I park my car I look in the rearview mirror to check the damage.  I see a huge bruise starting to get darker on the side of my head.  I wonder what the hell he hit me with that would make such a huge mark.  As I’m walking into the lobby I see Jay and Adam sitting and joking around.  I quickly walk past them not wanting them to see me.  I get to the elevator, waiting for the elevator to open, I start to get dizzy and sway a little bit.  I almost fall but I succeed in remaining upright.

    Jay says to Adam, "Hey, there’s Jess.  It looks like she had a bit too much to drink tonight."

    Adam says, "Yeah it does.  We should probably help her to her room.  She looks like she's having trouble even standing."

    They walk over to Jessica at the elevator.

    Jay says, "Hey Jess.  Looks like you decided to go out after all huh.  You need some help getting up to your room?"

    I reply, "Um . . . no . . .no thanks.  I . . . I . . . can do it myself."  Keeping my face covered with my hair.

    Jay looks at me.  He goes to move my hair away from my face and I turn away.

    Jay says, "Hey.  What's wrong?  I’m not going to hurt you."  He succeeds in moving my hair and exclaims, "What the fuck!!!"

    Adam looks and says, "What happened?  Who did this to you?"

    I reply, "Nothing.  I’m fine."

    Jay says, "You are not fine.  You can barely stand.  Until I saw this I thought you were drunk.  What happened?"

    I say, "I just want to go to my room.  I need sleep."

    Adam says, "Not with that.  You might have a concussion.  Come on, you can stay with us."

    They take me to their room, by this point practically holding me up.  They prop me up on one of the beds and Jay gets some ice.

    Putting the ice on my head Jay asks, "Jess, what happened?"

    I sigh, "I got jumped in the parking lot at the arena.  Once I felt I could, I drove back here."

    Jay says, "You drove here.  Do you know who jumped you?"

    I lie, "No, I don’t.  I just want to forget it.  Can I go to my room now?"

    Jay says, "You can’t.  Someone has to stay with you.  Did you call the police, did anyone see it happen?"

    I say, "No, no police.  Besides, there wasn't anyone who saw what happened.  I need my things Jay.  I can’t sleep in this, plus I need a shower too."

    Adam says, "Tell you what.  I’ll go with you and stay with you tonight.  That way I can wake you up every couple of hours."

    I reply, "Um . . . no that's okay.  I can set my alarm to do that.  I don’t want to keep you up all night."  Thinking to myself, ˜Not to mention just the fact of being in the room alone with him was going to have me on edge.

    Adam says, "No arguments.  Come on, let's go.  Jay, I’ll see you in the morning."

    Jay says, "Okay man.  Jess, feel better and take some aspirin for that head.  Okay." As he kisses my forehead goodnight

    He walks me to my room and I grab the key card from my bag.  Just now realizing that if I had been jumped the person would have taken it.  Obviously Adam thought the same thing.

    Adam says, "I guess it's good that whoever mugged you didn’t take your bag."

    I look at him and say, "I wasn’t mugged.  I was jumped.  There is a difference.  Besides I guess they may have looked through it and didn’t see anything they wanted."  Not mentioning my cell phone and $200 in my bag.  I continued, "Seriously, I don’t need you to stay with me tonight.  I’ll be fine."

    Adam replies, "No arguments.  You need help and that's what friends are for."  He puts his arm around me and I shiver a little hoping he doesn't notice.

    I say, "Whatever.  I just want to go and take a shower and get whatever sleep I can tonight."

    We get into my room and Adam sits down on the bed.  I head into the bathroom after grabbing my nightgown and my robe.  I say, "I’ll be out in a few minutes."

    I take a shower, a bit longer than normal because I keep having dizzy spells.  I finally finish up and head out of the bathroom.  I stop and stare as I see Adam sitting on my bed with only his pants on.  I let a little groan, which Adam hears.

    Adam asks, "Are you okay?  Are you in pain?"

    I think to myself, "Not the kind of pain you're thinking of then say, "Um . . .Yeah . . . my head hurts a bit.  I need to lie down."

    I get into bed with Adam staying on top of the covers.  When I fall asleep I am on my side of the bed.  After a few times of Adam waking me up, I sleep peacefully the remainder of the night unaware that I have wrapped myself around a sleeping Adam.  When I wake up in the morning I open my eyes to Adam staring down at me.  I blush and start to move away but Adam pulls me back to him.

    Adam says, "Don’t go.  Stay right here."

    I look up into his gorgeous eyes, my eyes pleading with him to kiss me.  He lowers his lips to mine and I melt.  I start to return the kiss passionately rubbing my palm over his smooth chest.  His hand is at the back of my head keeping our lips together.  He finally pulls away and just looks down at me.  I lower my head embarrassed.  He lifts my chin to look at him.

    I ask, "Why did you do that?"

    He says, "Because I wanted to.  I’ve been wanting to for a while now.  Do you object?"

    I hesitate, "No, I don’t object.  I just didn’t think you thought of me that way."

    Adam replies, "Well, I do think of you that way.  I have fantasized about a lot of things with you.  I know we are friends, but I want to be more than your friend.  I want to fill your every desire.  If you'll let me."  He lowers his lips to mine again and kisses me with more passion than before.  Adam rolls on top of me and continues to kiss me passionately.  I can feel his hardness against my thigh.  I pull back from him and look away.

    Adam asks, "What’s the matter?"

    I reply, "Adam, I can’t do this right now.  I have too many things to work through.  I can’t give myself to you completely right now.  I need some time.  Besides, I don’t want you to regret doing something you can’t take back."  Knowing with all the stuff going on with Angle.

    Adam says, "I wouldn't regret it.  I want you.  If you need time then that’s okay by me.  I can wait."

    I reply, "Yeah, okay.  I have some things I have to do before going to the arena this afternoon.  Maybe I’ll see you later."

    Adam says, "Well, I don’t think you should go to work today.  But if you are then I will definitely see you later."  He gives me one last passionate kiss before getting up, putting his shirt on and leaving.

-----Later on at the arena----

    People keep staring at me and even asking me what happened.  I tell them what I told Adam and Jay.  Stephanie even came up to me asking if I was sure I was okay enough to work.  She isn’t the bitch people make her out to be.  During the show I've been running around all over the place for Angle.  Even to the point where I’m getting something for someone else and he pulls me away saying he needed me to do something.

    Chris had seen me and was instantly worried, hearing what had happened from Jay.  Wanting me to go back to the hotel to rest, but I refused.

    Finally the show is over and I’m helping out with the ring.  I hadn't seen Adam all night I was purposely avoiding him.  I finished up and started walking to my car.  I was a little jumpy considering what happened the night before.  Angle steps out in front of me and I jump back.

    Angle says, "You did a good job tonight.  You better not have told anyone that I was the one that jumped you.  If you do, you’ll be even more sorry than you were last night."  He turns and leaves.

    Unbeknownst to myself or Angle Jeff Hardy had heard the whole thing.

    Jeff was pissed how the hell could he do that to her.  Jeff left the arena and went back to the hotel.  As he walked in he saw Chris sitting at the bar.  He went over and sat down next to him.

    Jeff says, "Hey Chris.  How’s it going?"

    Chris replies, "It’s going okay.  Just worried about Jessica."

    Jeff, curious, asks, "Why, what's up?"

    Chris replies, "You didn’t hear.  She got jumped in the parking lot at the arena last night.  Hit her on the side of the head pretty hard."

    Jeff says, "Really?  Does she know who did it?"

    Chris says, "No.  She says she doesn’t know.  I have this feeling she does though.  I don’t know.  Maybe I’m making too much of this."

    Jeff says, "I don’t think you are.  I overheard something when I was leaving the arena I think you should know."

    Chris looks at Jeff and says, "What?  Did someone say something?"

    Jeff then explains what he overheard from Angle talking to Jessica.  Chris was livid.  For one, Angle daring to lay a hand on her and secondly because she lied and said she didn’t know.  Chris storms out of the bar to go to Adam and Jay's room with Jeff hot on his heels.

    Chris pounds on their door.  Jay opens it and Chris storms in.

    Jay says, "Sure Chris.  Come on in."

    Chris asks, "Have either of you seen Jess tonight?"

    Jay says, "No, I haven’t.  As for Adam I don’t know.  I don’t think he did.  Why?  What’s up?"

    Chris says, "Well, Jeff just clued me in on a little bit of information that he overheard.  I think you two should know about it.  Where's Adam?"

    Just then Adam walks out of the bathroom. ""What’s up?  I’m right here."

    Jay says, "Chris was just about to tell us what’s up."

    Chris says, "Well, it seems that our little Jess has lied to us.  According to what Jeff overheard she knows who jumped her last night."

    Adam exclaims, "She what?  She knows who did it?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, she does.  Why she would lie to us I have no idea."

    Jay asks, "So, who was it?  And why do I get the feeling that we know them?"

    Chris says, "Because Jay, we do know him.  It was Angle."

    Adam and Jay shout, "What!!!!"

    Adam asks Jeff, "Are you sure what you heard?"

    Jeff says, "Yeah I’m sure.  He threatened her even more tonight if she told anyone.  That’s probably why she didn’t say anything."

    Adam says, "I’ll be right back."

    Adam leaves his room and rushes to my room.  He knocks and waits a few minutes before knocking again.  I finally open the door in my robe being that I just got out of the shower.  I can see that he's agitated.

    I say, "Hi Adam.  What can I do for you?"

    Adam says, "Why won’t you trust me?"

    I reply, "I do trust you Adam.  What is this about?  Is this about this morning?  I told you where I stand on that.  It’s your problem if you feel you have to wait for me.  I didn’t ask you to nor do I expect you to."

    "Well, first of all, I need to do this."  He grabs me, pulls me to his hard body and kisses me passionately.  He pulls away and says, "But that’s not why I’m here.  I want to know why you don’t trust me, Jay or Chris.  Why won’t you tell us who attacked you last night."

    My stomach fell at that comment.  I say, "Because I don’t know who did it.  I told you that.  Why would you think that I do?"

    Adam says, "You know, I can deal with pretty much anything.  The one thing I can’t deal with is lying."

    I reply, "I’m not lying Adam.  I don’t know why you would think otherwise."

    Adam says, "Well, when you decide you can trust me then I will speak to you.  I will not tolerate being lied to."  At that he storms out and slams the door.

     I sit on my bed for a little bit.  I need someone to talk to.  I call Chris on his cell phone.

    Chris answers, "Speak to me."

    I say, "Chris, it’s me Jess.  Can you come up here to my room?  I need someone to talk to."

    Chris reins in his anger and says, "Actually Jess, I’m in the middle of something right now.  Can it wait until morning?"

    I say, "You know what, forget it.  I don’t need anymore shit tonight.  One friend balls me out and another is being an ass.  I can feel your anger towards me Chris.  I just wish I knew why.  Goodbye."

    I end up crying myself to sleep.  I wake up the next morning to someone knocking on my door.  The knocking persists until I get up and answer it.  I see Chris on the other side of the door.

    I say, "What the hell do you want."  Trying to control my anger at seeing him here.

    Chris replies, "I said I would talk to you in the morning.  Well, here I am."

    I reply, "Too little too late Chris.  I needed you last night.  So leave me alone.  I need to get ready to go to the next city."

    I attempt to close the door in his face, but he pushes his way in.

    I say, "Chris, leave now.  I’m not in the mood for this."

    Chris says, "Well, that’s tough.  We are going to talk.  Why did you lie to us?"

    I reply, "Jesus, not you too.  I did not lie to you.  I don’t know why you and Adam think I did."

    Chris says, "You know what.  I’ll tell you the same thing Adam did.  This goes for Jay too by the way.  When you feel you can trust us and tell us the truth, then and only then will I speak to you."

    He turns to leave.

    I scream, "Fine!  You know what?  You three can just fuck off!  I don’t need you!  Leave me the fuck alone!"

    Chris replies sadly, "You may not need us, but we need you."

     With that he walks out the door.  By this point I am seething.  I get my stuff together and head downstairs to check out.  I see Chris, Jay and Adam standing by the door of the hotel.  After checking out I walk past them not even glancing at them.  I get into one of the cabs out front to take me to the airport.

    I get myself settled in my seat on the plane.  I wonder who is going to be in the seat next to me.  Usually it’s either Chris, Jay or Adam.  Well, obviously not on this trip.  As I’m looking out the window I feel someone sit next to me.  I look over and see Jeff.

    Jeff says, "Hey Jess."

    I reply, "Hi Jeff."

    Jeff asks, "How ya doing€™?"

    I say, "I’m fine Jeff.  If you don’t mind Jeff, I think I want to get some sleep."

    Jeff replies, "Sure no problem."

    I drift off to sleep for the long plane ride.

    A few hours later I wake up to the plane making its descent.  I notice that Jeff is already up and getting his bag from overhead.

    I say, "Um Jeff, don’t you think you might want to sit until we land."

    Jeff laughs, "I will.  I just hate trying to get my stuff when people are trying to get off the plane.  You want me to get yours while I’m up?"

    I reply, "No thanks.  I’ll wait."

    Jeff eventually sits back down and waits for the plane to land.  After taxiing to the gate I wait until everyone else is off before grabbing my bag and leaving the plane.  I feel hurt when I get to the door and see Chris, Jay and Adam getting into a cab.

    I say to myself, "Fine.  They can go fuck themselves."

     I walk out to hail a cab.  I finally get to the hotel and my room.  I check the time and see that I have a couple of hours to get to the arena.  I can tell it’s going to be a one hell of a night.

----Some time passes----

    It’s been two weeks since those three gave me their little speech.  It’s been pretty much the same as that first day.  I ignore them and they ignore me.  It doesn’t bother me or hurt me that much anymore.  At the shows I’m still Angle's lackey.  Tonight I’m sure won’t be any different.  I was getting something for Stephanie when Angle grabs my arm.

    Angle says, "I need you to do something."

    I say, "I can’t right now.  I have to get something for Stephanie."

    Knowing I will regret it later, but hoping that mentioning Stephanie Angle won’t give me a hard time.  I was wrong.

    Angle says angrily, "I told you.  When I tell you to do something you do it."

    He shoves me back to the wall and punches me in the stomach.  I slide down the wall doubling over in pain grabbing my stomach.  Angle then proceeds to tell me what he wants and walks away.  Out of the corner of my eye I see someone coming towards me.  I quickly stand up and pretend nothing happened.  As I’m walking away I look behind me and see Adam standing there.

    He catches up to me and says, "Are you okay?"

    I spin around towards him and say, "What the fuck do you care!"

    Adam replies, "I do care.  That’s why I did what I did.  I want for you to trust me.  I wanted you to tell me who attacked you.  But you wouldn’t."

    I say, "What do you want.  You want me to pick a name from a hat.  I told you I don’t know."

    Adam says, "Yeah, you do know.  Because Chris, Jay and I also know who jumped you.  We know that it was Angle who jumped you.  We wanted to give you a chance to tell us yourself."

    I stare at him shocked.  I say, "No!  You don’t know anything Adam."

    I turn and walk away hunched over a little from the pain in my stomach.  

    Adam walks next to me and I attempt to walk straighter to hide my pain.

    Adam asks, "What happened?  Did you get hit in the stomach?"

    I don’t reply.  I just keep on walking.  Adam grabs my arm and turns me toward him.

    He says, "I only want to help you.  Why won’t you let me?"

    I reply angrily, "Just leave me alone.  I don’t want your help or need it.  I can take care of myself."

    Adam says snidely, "Yeah.  That’s obvious in the way that you are hunched over holding your stomach."

    I say, "I have to go.  I have things to do."

    Adam says, "I just want to talk to you.  Come with me."  Pulling me with him.

    I pull back and reply, "Did you not hear what I said.  I said I had things to do.  Do you not care that I have a job to do.  Maybe we’ll talk later."

    Adam says, "Fine!  I’ll come to your room tonight.  I’ll be waiting."

    I reply, "Fine!"  Before running off to do Angles ˜favors".

    I get to Angle’s locker room and immediately notice that he is pissed.

    Angle says angrily, "What the hell took you so long?"

    I say, "Someone stopped me in the hallway.  I tried to get here but they wouldn’t let me go."

    He says, "You better not have said anything."

    I was relieved to be let off the hook so easily.  After the show and taking care of the ring I got back to my hotel room not all that surprised to see Adam standing there waiting for me.

    I ask, "What are you doing here?"

    Adam says, "I told you I was coming to your room tonight to talk.  I did say I would be waiting for you."

    I say, "Yeah, well the way you have been the last couple of weeks I didn’t think you actually meant it."

    Adam sighs, "I told you why *I* did that.  Why *we* did that.  What more do you want me to say?"

    I reply, "I don’t want you to say anything.  You made it clear.  Just leave me alone."

    I open the door to my room and Adam follows me in.

    I sigh, "Listen, I need to shower.  You can wait until I’m done or you can leave like I asked you to."

    Adam walks up to me and says, "Oh, I will be waiting right here for you.  I’m not going anywhere."

    I go into the bathroom and shower.  I can hear the TV on in the other room so I know he hasn't left.  When I step out of the shower I realize I left my nightgown in the other room.  I can’t go out there in a towel, Adam will see the bruises I have from other times I have displeased Angle.  The most prominent bruises being on my back.  I peek out the bathroom door and see Adam lounging on my bed with his eyes closed.  ˜Great I say to myself.  He's asleep. Which means I can get my stuff and get dressed without him seeing the bruises.  I gather my stuff and start walking back into the bathroom.

    I hear Adam exclaim, "Stop right there!  What the fuck is that?!"

    I freeze.  I turn around to face Adam and say nonchalantly, "What?"

    Adam walks over to me and turns me around so he can see my back.

    Adam says, "Holy Shit!  What the hell has he been doing to you?"

    I try to lie my way out of it, "He didn’t do anything.  I fell."

    Adam says angrily, "Bullshit!  Try again!  The truth this time!"

    I sigh, "You don’t get it.  If I say anything to anyone he will make it even worse for me.  That’s why I won’t€™ tell you who it is."

    Adam replies, "I already know who it is.  I told you that earlier."

    I say smugly, "Yeah, and just how do you know who it is?  You have a crystal ball and can see everything."

    Adam explains, "No, Jeff told us.  He overheard what Angle said to you the night after he attacked you.  That’s why I came to your room that night.  I thought you had at least trusted me enough to tell me.  When you still insisted you didn’t know I got angry.  I couldn't understand why you would protect him."

    I sigh, "Adam, I wasn’t trying to protect him.  I was trying to protect myself.  I knew what he would do to me if I told anyone, he told me often enough what he would do.  He can’t find out that you know."

    Adam asks, "Why don’t you go to Stephanie or Vince and tell them what’s been going on.  They can take care of it."

    I reply, "They won’t believe me.  It will be my word against his.  Who do you think they will believe?  Angle, who makes them a lot of money or some lowly crewmember.  I know I don’t have to tell you the answer to that one."

    Adam says, "I want to help you.  Maybe we can get proof of what he’s doing.  Maybe we can set up a camera or something and tape him abusing you."

    I reply, "I wouldn’t go so far as to say he is abusing me Adam.  Isn’t that a little much?"

    Adam says, "No, I don’t.  What else would you call it when someone hurts another person for no reason all the time."

    I say, "I see your point.  Okay, I see where you are going with this plan.  I know I can make him mad to, you know, punish me.  But what if he goes too far and hurts me even worse than he usually does.  I’ve been able to deal with what he’s been doing to me.  I don’t know if I can take it if he does something even worse."

    Adam asks, "Do you trust me?  I mean really trust me?"

    I reply, "Yes, I do.  I trust you a lot."

    Adam says, "Then will you trust me when I say that he is not going to lay another hand on you.  Not while I’m around."

    I ask, "Yeah, and how are you going to do that?"

    Adam replies, "Well, for starters, I’m not going to let you out of my sight.  Wherever you go, I go."

    I say, "Adam, you can’t do that.  You do have to work and so do I."

    Adam says, "Don’t worry.  I’ll work it out.  Now that that’s settled, there is something I’ve been dying to do for a while now."

    I ask, "What that?"

    He walks up to me and pulls me into him.

    He says, "This."  He leans his head down to mine and kisses me softly.  He immediately deepens it.  I try to pull away, but he pulls me even more into him.  I stop resisting and return the kiss.  God it felt good to be in his arms.

    Adam pulls away and says, "I’ve been dying to do that for two weeks now.  It’s been killing me seeing you and not taking you right then and there.  Let me ask you something."

    I get my bearings and ask, "What?"

    Adam asks, "That morning when you said you had things you had to work out.  Were you talking about Angle or something else?"

    I sigh as I walk to my bed and sit down.  I reply, "Well, he’s one of the reasons.  But there are a few other things I need to work out."

    Adam kneels down in front of me and grabs my head.  He asks, "What else do you need to work out babe?  I want to help you if I can."

    I say, "Adam, you can’t fix everything for me.  It’s just . . . I just need to come to some conclusions about certain things."

    Being persistent he asks, "Like what?"

    I shout, "Fine, you want to know!  You!  I have to come to grips about how I feel about you.  Are you happy now?"

    Adam smiles and says, "Yeah, I am.  I wasn’t sure how you felt about me.  Now I know.  So what’s the problem?  You know I care about you.  What’s holding you back?"

    I reply, "You’re kidding me right.  The problem?  The problem is you don’t feel the same way about me as I do about you.  That’s the problem.  I don’t want to get burned and that’s exactly what will happen."

Chapter 2

Adam Says, "Ahhh understand now.  You know I care about you, but you care about me a lot.  I understand but I still don’t see what the problem is."

    I sigh, "Alright, I may as well get it out in the open right now.  Before it goes any further."  I take a deep breath and say, "It’s not that I care about you a lot.  What I mean is, I do care about you, but it goes deeper than that.  I don’t know exactly when it happened, but I fell in love with you.  I know that isn’t what you wanted to hear, but you asked."

    Adam just stayed where he was for a few minutes.  He stood up and ran his hand through his long blond hair.  He asks me, "You love me?"

    I just nod as an answer not being able to look at him, keeping my head down.

    Adam kneels in front of me again and says, "I don’t know what to say.  I mean, I do care about you but I can’t say that I love you.  I just got out of my marriage, so for me it’s too soon."

    I say, "I understand Adam.  You don’t have to say anything else.  I’ll find a way to deal with Angle.  You don’t have to worry about me.  I’ll move on eventually."

    Adam sighs and says, "I don’t want you to move on.  Not without me.  All I ask is that you give me a little time."

    I reply, "That’s fine Adam.  I just want you to understand one thing.  I know you said that you would wait for me.  That was your choice to make.  I hope you aren't asking me to make the same choice.  I’ll wait a little while, but I won’t wait forever.  I know you need to come to your own terms with your divorce.  When you do, I’ll be here but I won’t guarantee that I’ll be waiting.  I do love you, I probably always will, but I always told myself that I wouldn’t wait forever for the right man.  I think you are the right man, you just have to realize it and believe it."

    Adam looks at me and says, "I won’t ask you to wait for me.  That wouldn’t be fair to you.  I still want to help you with Angle though."

    I reply, "Oh Adam, I would love to have your help with this.  But I think until you settle things with yourself that we shouldn’t see each other unless necessary at work.  I can’t do that to you or myself.  I don’t want to push you.  You need time to yourself.  I’ll figure a way to take care of Angle on my own.  Now, I think you should go, I need my sleep."

    Adam stands up.  I stand up with him and walk him to the door.  He leans down to give me a kiss, but I turn my head and it lands on my cheek.  I can see the hurt in his eyes as if it was a reflection of my own.  I open the door and he says, "I’ll see you tomorrow probably at the arena."

    I reply, "Yeah, maybe."

    He walks out the door and down the hallway.  I can’t help but wonder if this was the last time that he walks out my door.

----Adam and Jay’s room----

    Jay and Chris are hanging out watching a movie when they hear the door being opened.  They see Adam walk in looking defeated.  He doesn’t say anything as he heads into the bathroom to take a shower.

    Chris says, "I guess it didn’t go so well."

    Jay replies, "From the way he looked, he looks like he’s been beaten down.  Should we try to talk to him or let him sleep it off?"

    Chris suggests, "Why don’t you try to talk to him when he comes out.  I’m going to go talk to her.  I’ll see you in the morning."

    Jay says, "Okay.  See you then."

    Chris goes down the hallway until he reaches my door.  He knocks and waits for me to answer.

    I open the door in my robe and am utterly surprised to see Chris standing there.

    I ask, "What do you want?"

    Chris says, "I came to talk to you.  From the way Adam looked he wasn’t too happy.  I wanted to make sure that you were okay."

    I ask, "What do you care.  You haven’t talked to me in two weeks and now all of a sudden you want to talk.  Well, I don’t so you can leave."

    Chris replies, "No, I’m not leaving."

    I say, "I know why you guys did what you did, but it doesn’t make it any easier on me.  It still hurt you know."

    Chris says exasperated, "What do I have to do to shut you up for a minute and listen to what I have to say."

    I reply, "There’s nothing you can do to shut me up.  It’s my room, if I want to talk€¦"

    At that Chris shut me up by brutally kissing me.  I was so shocked and lost in the moment I started to respond to his kiss.  I wrapped my arms around him and put my hand in his hair holding him to me.  I started backing up to my bed pulling him with me.  I fall onto the bed with him on top of me.  All my emotions and frustrations are coming out in full force at this moment.  I move my hands down his back to get under his shirt.  I rake my fingernails down his back.  I pull his shirt up; he breaks the kiss to allow me to remove it.  I flick my fingernail over his nipple and I hear his sharp intake of breath.

    Chris asks, "What are you doing?"

     I reply, "I want you."  As I pull him to me for another kiss.  I wrap my legs around him and I feel his hardness trying to break through his pants.  I move my hands to the front of his pants and open them up.  I slip my hands around to the back and slip them inside his pants clutching his ass, pulling him into me.  He groans as he feels me pull him to me.  He opens my robe and sees my bare breasts.  He licks the tip ever so softly.  I arch up to him wanting more.  He takes my nipple into his mouth sucking, biting and licking.

    I plead, "Chris . . . please . . . I need you inside me . . .please."

    Chris says softly, "Not yet baby.  I’ve dreamt of this for so long.  I want to take my time and give you as much pleasure as you deserve."

    He licks a trail from my breasts down to my stomach and finally to my womanhood.  He lightly licks my clit making my hips jump off the bed a bit.  He licks down a little more until he gets to my entrance.  He licks lightly until he finally thrusts his tongue into me.

    I gasp, "Oh god . . . Chris . . . don't stop . . . please . . . more."

    Chris continues to fuck me with his tongue.  He rubs his knuckles over my swollen nerves and sends me into orgasmic bliss.  He continues to lick and suck all my juices from my orgasm.  He slowly slides up my body and kisses me passionately.

    Chris whispers, "You taste so sweet.  I want you so bad Jess.  Please let me make love to you."

    Hearing him say those words actually fills my heart.  No one had ever said that to me like that.  It was always just sex.  I had assumed that this was just like the others.

    I reply, "Please Chris, make love to me.  I need you.  I want you inside me."

    Chris stands up long enough to remove his shoes, socks, pants and boxers.  I just stare at the size of his huge member.  I lick my lips just aching to taste him.

    Chris sees me lick my lips and groans.  He knows what I am thinking.  He lies down on top of me just about to enter me.  He says softly, "Baby, I would love for you to go down on me, but I’m too far gone right now.  I don’t want it to be over before it starts.  Please, let me love you."

    Not entirely sure what I heard I wrap my legs around him and pull him into me.

    Chris gasps, "Oh . . . fuck. . . . you are so tight."

    I say, "Come on baby.  Come to me.  You feel so good."

    Chris thrusts harder and faster until he’s on the brink.  I start to clamp my muscles around his hardened member inside me.

    I shout, "Oh god, Chris . . . I'm gonna cum.  Please make me cum."

    A few more hard thrusts and my orgasm takes over.  As my orgasm hits I hear Chris groan, as his orgasm is about to take him over.  One more hard thrust, he spills his seed inside me and collapses on top of me.  He starts kissing me.  He pulls back and lightly brushes the hair from my face.

    He kisses me gently and says, "That was amazing baby.  It feels so good to be inside you."

    I reply softly, "You felt so good Chris.  It was amazing."  Kissing him softly in return.

----Adam and Jay’s Room----

    Adam steps out of the bathroom and sees Jay sitting there.

    Adam says, "Hey Jay.  Where'd Chris go?"

    Jay replies, "He left.  He thought maybe you would want to talk to me alone.  So what happened Adam?  Did you talk to Jess?"

    Adam replies, "Yeah, I spoke to her.  I told her that we knew what Angle did to her, is doing to her."

    Jay asks, "What do you mean is doing to her?  You mean he is hitting her?"

    Adam says, "Yeah he is.  I saw bruises on her back.  Apparently he does it when he thinks she displeases him."

    Jay asks, "Is that why you looked the way you did when you came back.  Because of what he is doing?"

    Adam sighs, "No, that’s not it.  We discussed some things when we were talking.  I found out something and I don’t know what to do."

    Jay asks, "What Adam?  What happened?"

    Adam let’s out a long breathe and says, "She told me that she is in love with me."

    Jay says, "Yeah and what's the problem?"

    Adam says, "Didn’t you just hear what I said?"

    Jay replies, "Yeah, I heard you.  She loves you.  I still don’t see the problem."

    Adam says, "I don’t love her.  That’s the problem.  I care about her, but right now that’s it."

    Jay asks, "What did you tell her when she said that?"

    Adam replies, "I told her I care about her, but it was too soon for me to say love.  I wanted to at least be with her and see where this could go."

    Jay laughs, "Yeah and at least you could get some every night."

    Adam glares at Jay and says, "That’s not funny Jay.  Besides, you of all people know that I’m not like that.  She doesn’t want me anywhere near her right now.  She said for me to get my head straightened out first."

    Jay says, "That doesn’t sound too bad.  At least she'll still be here so you can at least see her once in a while.  Then when you get that mind of yours straight you swoop in and sweep her off her feet."

    Adam asks, "And what do I do if she isn’t sweepable?"

    Jay says perplexed, "Huh?"

    Adam asks, "What I mean is what if she isn’t available for me to sweep her off her feet?"

    Jay says, "Why wouldn’t she be.  You said she told you she loved you."

    Adam replies, "Yeah, but she also said that she wasn’t going to wait forever for me."

    Jay says, "Wow, that’s harsh.  I understand it, but it’s still harsh.  I don’t know buddy.  I think you need to fix that head of yours and quickly.  Before someone else sweeps her off her feet.

    Adam just nods in agreement.

----My room----

    Chris and I are snuggled under the blankets holding, caressing and kissing each other.

    I look at Chris and ask, "Chris, why did you come here tonight?"

    Chris says, "Well, it wasn’t for this.  But this was an absolutely wonderful bonus.  I know I wanted to talk to you about something.  You distracted me so well that I can’t remember."

    He gives me a passionate kiss while rubbing his hand up and down my thigh.

    I pull back and say, "Hmmm . . .someone is in the mood again."

    Chris chuckles and says, "Doesn’t take much for me to be in the mood when I’m around you.  All I have to do is look at you and I’m so hard it’s painful.  I just can’t help it."

    I reply, "Chris, you probably get like that around a lot of women."

    Chris looks deep into my eyes and says, "No Jess, I don’t.  Just one woman does that to me."

    I can see the sincerity and intensity in his eyes.  I believe what he is telling me.

    I say, "I never knew you felt that way Chris.  I thought tonight was just about sex.  Just to satisfy each other."

    Chris replies, "No, it was never even in my mind for it to be like that.  I mean I wasn’t expecting this to happen, but I don’t regret it.  I won’t, and don’t want to, take it back.  I hope you don’t regret it."

    I say, "No, I don’t regret it.  I did think it was just about sex though.  I’m glad that it wasn’t just that.  So where do we go from here?  I mean I know that neither of us is looking for a relationship right now.  So if you want to we can hang out together and still have some fun.  It’s up to you."

    Chris asks, "Really?  You aren’t looking for something more?  I know I am.  I was hoping to see where this could go with us.  I told you, it isn’t just about sex."

    I say, "You’re serious aren’t you?  I mean obviously I like you if I’m friends with you.  I guess it’s also obvious you like me too."

    Chris says, "Yeah I would say I like you a lot.  I would really like to give this a shot."

    I reply, "Okay Chris.  First I should tell you something.  You might change your mind when I tell you."

    Chris asks, "What is it baby?"

    I say, "Well, I am in love with someone else.  But the person doesn’t know what they want.  They don’t feel the same way as I do.  So I told him that he has to decide, but I wasn’t going to wait forever.  So if you change your mind I understand."

    Chris says, "Listen baby.  I know you’re in love with Adam.  I see it every time you look at him.  I guess that also explains why he looked the way he did earlier.  I wished sometimes that you would look at me that way.  I know you don’t love me, and I’m close to being in love with you.  So since we are basically on the same level maybe the love will grow between us.  I would like to see if it does.  If you do too."

    I look at Chris; I pull him to me and kiss him deeply.

    I say, "Does that answer your question."

    Chris replies, "Oh yeah, it definitely does baby."  He leans down and takes me in a passionate kiss.

    We make love again before drifting off to a blissful sleep.

----The next morning----

    I wake up to someone snuggling into me.  I then realize that it’s Chris.  I think to myself, what the hell did I do?  Oh god, Chris is going to hate me. Not at all remembering what he told me the night before.  I try to slip out from his arms without waking him.  I’m just about out of his arms when I feel them pull me back and tighten around me.

    He asks sleepily, "Where are you going?"

    I reply, "Um . . . I was just going to the bathroom."

    Chris looks at me and says, "Um . . . want to try that again.  Where were you going?"

    I say, "I was trying to get up before you did.  I know you must hate me.  I’m sorry about last night."

    He says, "Why are you sorry.  I’m not.  We talked about this last night.  Do you regret it now?"

    I reply, "No, I don’t.  I thought you were going to."

   He says, "Why would I.  We did talk about this.  Suffice it to say we agreed together to give this a shot."

    I hesitate for a few minutes remembering last night.  I say, "Are you sure about this Chris?  I don’t want you to get hurt."

    Chris looks me in the eyes and replies, "I’m sure.  I’m willing to give it a shot if you are.  Just keep in mind.  If you don’t want to give us a chance, this will be the last time we sleep together.  I’m not like that and it doesn’t put you in good light.  I won’t do that to you, and it won’t be fair to either of us.  So if you don’t want to do this then you tell me now."

    I look at Chris and say, "If you’re sure then I’m sure.  I just feel bad that I’m in love with someone else though."

    Chris says, "Listen, I know you are.  You can’t help what you feel and I would never force you to change that.  Maybe you will be able to aim some of that love towards me.  We’ll just have to see what happens.  I know it won’t be easy, nothing worth it ever is."

    I look at him and kiss him passionately.  I pull away and say, "I need to get up and get ready to go to the arena.  I do have a job to do.  Unfortunately, unlike you, I have to be there a lot earlier.  I’ll probably see you later."

    He says, "Oh, you can bet on it that I’ll see you later.  Be careful tonight okay.  I don’t want you getting hurt."

    I reply, "Don’t worry.  I’ll be fine.  I’m going to hop into the shower.  Someone got me all sweaty."  I smile at him.

    He says, with a devilish grin, "I love watching you sweat that way."

    I get up and take my shower after convincing Chris that it would not be a good idea to join me.  It would end up making me late.  When I get out of the shower I see he is still lying in bed looking all sexy.

    I say, "Geez, couldn’t you have at least gotten up and dressed.  Seeing you lying there is just too tempting.  Well, you may be able to lounge around all day, but I have to go.  See ya later."

    Chris gets up, naked, and pulls me in for an extremely passionate kiss.  He says, "Just so you know what you will be missing all day, but anticipate tonight.  See ya later baby."

    I reply, "Yeah, later.  I don’t know what time I will be getting back here tonight.  Why don’t I just see you in the morning?  We’ll meet for breakfast or something."

    Chris says, "No way baby.  Now that I’ve got you, I don’t plan on sleeping in my bed alone.  I’ll find you after the show tonight."

    I reply, "If that’s what you want to do.  You’ll be awfully bored watching me take down the ring.  But hey you know, to each his own.  I really have to go or I will be late.  Bye baby."

    I leave and grab a cab to the arena.  I do whatever needs to be done before the show starts.  I’m sitting in catering when I see Angle and Chris walk in.  I know Angle’s looking for me and he doesn’t look happy.

    Angle says, "What the hell are you doing?"

    I reply, "Um . . . eating."

    Angle says, grabbing my arm, "You are supposed to be helping me."

    I say, "I didn’t know you were here yet."  Over Angle’s shoulder I see Chris coming over extremely pissed off.  "Listen, you go on I’ll be there right away.  Believe me, I don’t want to get you angry with me."

    Angle replies, "You’re right.  You don’t want to get me angry.  You’ll be sorry if you do.  Don’t keep me waiting."  He stalks off.

    Chris asks, "Are you okay?"

    I reply, "I’m fine.  I’ve gotta go.  I’ll see you later."  I run off leaving Chris watching me leave.

    I head off to do Angle’s biddings What I didn’t know is that Chris had a match set up with Angle for that night.

    While I’m helping out one of the other crewmembers I hear Angle’s music.  I then cringe when I hear Chris€™ music next.  I just know something is going to happen.  I run to the closest monitor to watch the match, and perhaps to some extent what my fate for that night might be.

Chapter 3

----In the ring----

    Chris was pounding on angle letting his anger get the best of him.

    Angle cries, "What the hell are you doing?  This isn’t the way it’s supposed to go."

    Chris says, "Yeah, well I don’t exactly like what you've been doing to Jess.  I’m just doing a little pay back."

    Angle continued to get pummeled by Chris.  Finally the ref called for the bell when Angle was knocked out.  Chris heads to the back and see me just staring at the monitor.  I couldn’t believe what had just happened.  I feel arms wrap around me.  I turn around and see Chris.

    I ask, "What did you do?"

    Chris shrugs and says, "Just a little pay back for what he’s been doing to you."

        I turn to look at the monitor and I see Angle starting to come around with a very angry look on his face and I know it’s directed at me.

    I say, "Oh god, I have to get out of here.  You have no idea what you just did."

    Chris says, "What do you mean what I did.  It was just a bit of pay back.  He deserved it.  I won’t let him hurt you anymore.  This should have been done a long time ago."

    I reply, "I know Chris.  But until this is taken care of it’s only going to cause more problems.  I don’t know what I’m going to do."

    While talking to Chris, Adam comes up to us.  I can’t even so much as look at him.

    Adam says, "Nice work Chris.  Wish I could get my hands on Angle."  He turns to me and says, "Hi Jess."

    I reply, "Hi Adam."  I walk away leaving Chris and Adam looking at me.

    Adam says, "That was a chilly reception.  I guess it’s to be expected."

    Chris says, "She’s not too happy with me right now.  Especially with what I just did to Angle."

    Adam says, "That may be part of it.  I think it’s me she’s chilly with.  I guess she has good reason."

    Chris just nods pretty much knowing what he was talking about.  Chris looks at the monitor and sees that Angle has left the ring.

    Chris exclaims, "Oh shit.  Angle left the ring already.  He’s going to go right for Jess.  We have to find her."

----In another part of the arena----

    I’m hiding from Angle in a locker room that isn’t being used.  I wait until I know the show is over and make my way out to work on taking down the ring.  I don’t see Chris anywhere so I assume he has left already, not wanting to wait.  After finishing up I make my way to the backstage area having forgotten my bag.  As I’m walking to the locker room I don’t see the person that is hiding around the corner from the room.

    I go into the locker room and get my bag.  I hear the door open and close behind me.  I turn around and am not surprised by who I see.  I just stand there looking at him.  Before I even realize it he is coming towards me.

    He pulls something from behind his back and just stare at him.

    I shout, "What are you doing?  I didn’t tell anyone, I swear."

    He says, "Oh yeah!  Then tell me how he found out.  You little slut, you probably told him while he was fucking your brains out.  Well, now you’re gonna pay.  I told you not to mess with me."

    He raises the metal bar that he had behind his back and hits me on the back of the head.  I remain semi conscious as he continues to hit me across the back with it.  He continues to spit insults and names at me while hitting me.  After a few more hits I realize that I can’t feel my legs.  He finally stops and I hear him leave the room.

    I put my hand on the back of my head and I can feel the blood.  I try to get up but I can’t.  I attempt to pull myself to the door.  I slowly make it to the door but can’t reach the handle to open it.  I hit the door with my hand hoping that if there is someone nearby that they will hear me.

----Outside the arena----

    Chris is waiting for Jess to come out.  He’s starting to worry being that he had seen some of the other crew leave a little bit ago.  A car pulls up in front of him with Matt and Jeff in it.

    Jeff asks, "Hey Chris.  Waiting for a ride?  We can give you a lift."

    Chris replies, "No, I’m waiting for Jess.  She should have been out by now.  The others left already.  What are you guys still doing here?"

    Jeff says, "I forgot something in the locker room.  Maybe Jess left already.  Did you check the hotel?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, they haven’t seen her.  Come on Jeff, I’ll go in with you.  I want to find her."

    Jeff gets out of the car and goes inside with Chris.

    Jeff asks cautiously, "Chris, is there something going on with you and Jess?  I’m only asking because I know she has a thing for Adam."

    Chris replies, "Well to put it simply.  Yes we are together and yes she has feelings for Adam, but he doesn’t feel for her what she feels for him.  And before you ask, it doesn’t bother me that she has feelings for Adam.  She’s with me right now and that’s all I care about."

    Jeff says, "Okay, fair enough.  Here's my locker room."

    They go and retrieve what Jeff left behind.  As they step into the hallway they hear a knocking noise.

    Jeff asks, "Do you hear that?"

    Chris replies, "Yeah I do.  It sounds like it’s coming from one of the locker rooms."

    They follow the sound until they get to the door it’s coming from.  The knocking stops and Chris looks at Jeff confused.

    Jeff says to the door, "Is someone in there?"

    I look up at the sound of someone's voice on the other side of the door.

    I shout, "I’m in here.  Help me please."

    Chris looks at Jeff and says, "That sounds like Jessica."

    Jeff opens the door and just stares down at the floor.  Jeff exclaims, "Holy shit!  Chris call an ambulance!"

    Chris calls an ambulance then goes to Jessica.  He says, "Jess, an ambulance is on the way.  What happened?"

    I reply, "He followed me.  Hit me on the back of the head with something."

    Chris puts his hand on the back of her head.  When he pulls it away he sees the amount of blood on his hand.  He asks, "Can you sit up?  We should get you off the floor."

    I look at Chris and say quietly, "Chris, I can’t feel my legs.  He hit me on the back too many times to count."

    Chris stares at Jeff.  He says, "Don’t worry Jess, the ambulance should be here real soon.  Jeff, would you mind going and wait for them to show them where to go?"

    Jeff says, "Yeah no problem.  Hang in there Jess."

    Jeff leaves to go wait for the ambulance.

    Chris says, "Jess, I’m so sorry.  This is all my fault.  If I didn’t beat him so bad in the match he wouldn’t have done this."

    I reply, "Chris, this isn’t your fault.  You and Adam were right.  Something should have been done about it before now.  I don’t blame you Chris please don’t blame yourself.  If it’s anyone's fault it’s mine."

    Chris says, "No it’s not your fault, it’s Kurt's fault.  He’s to blame for all of this.  This time he’s going to pay.  I’m going to make sure of it."

    Just then Jeff comes through the door with the EMT's.  He says, "The EMT’s are here.  She’s right there guys."

    The EMT’s get to me to check me over.  One of them asks, "What happened?"

    Before I could answer Chris says, "She got attacked.  She got hit on the back of the head.  She also said he hit her numerous times on the back.  She can’t feel her legs."

    The EMT’s get to work on me, all the while Chris and Jeff standing off to the side.

    Jeff says, "Oh shit, I forgot Matt is waiting for me.  Let me call his cell, I didn’t see him when I was waiting for the ambulance."  He dials Matt's cell phone and waits for him to pick up.

    Matt answers his phone and says, "Jeff, where the hell are you.  I don’t feel like sitting here all night."

    Jeff replies, "Something happened to Jessica.  The EMT’s are checking her out right now.  Matt, I need you to get in touch with Vince and Stephanie, tell them to meet us at the hospital."

    Matt says, "Shit, is she going to be alright?"

    Jeff says quietly, "I don’t know.  She can’t feel her legs.  Matt, just please call them.  I’m going with Chris, we’ll go in his rental."

    Matt replies, "Yeah, I’ll do that right now.  Let me know how she is."

    Jeff says, "Yeah, I’ll keep in touch.  Gotta go, they are loading her on the gurney.  Talk to you later."

    As they loaded me into the ambulance, Chris and Jeff made there way to the car to follow.

    In the car Jeff says, "I told Matt to call Vince and Stephanie, to have them meet us there.  I wasn’t sure if you heard my conversation with him or not."

    Chris replies, "You’re right I didn’t hear.  Definitely need Vince and Steph to know about this though.  That was a good idea.  I just hope she’ll be okay."

----At the hospital----

    Chris and Jeff are in the waiting room getting impatient on what was going on with Jess.  They are sitting there, for what seems like forever, when Vince and Stephanie show up.

    Stephanie says, "What happened?  All Matt said was that something happened to Jessica."

    Chris replies, "She was attacked.  She was hit on the back of the head pretty badly.  The person also beat her back pretty badly.  So bad, that before we left to come here she still couldn’t feel her legs.  They are still checking her out right now.  They haven’t told us anything yet."

    Vince exclaims, "Oh my god!  Who in the hell would do this?  Did she say who it was?"

    Chris says, "We know who it is.  This isn’t the only time he’s hit her either.  He’s been doing this for, I don’t know how long.  She has just been putting up with it."

     Jeff adds, "Yeah, I heard him threaten her a few weeks ago after he attacked her in the parking lot."

    Stephanie asks, "You mean that bruise she had on the side of her head?  She said she was jumped and didn’t know who did it."

    Chris says, "Yeah well, that’s the story she gave.  She didn’t think anyone would believe her if she told the truth.  Plus the fact that he threatened her even more harm if she told anyone."

    Vince asks, "So, who was it that did this?  Since you two are witnesses there is no doubt that the person will be punished."

    Chris says, "It was Kurt Angle."

    Stephanie gasps, "What?! Why in the hell would he do something like this?  It doesn’t seem like him at all."

    Chris replies, "Because he is an Olympic Asshole, that’s why.  I knew you wouldn’t believe it.  That’s why he did this to her.  I gave him a little payback in the ring tonight and she got hurt because of it."

    Vince says, "I thought the match was a little too real.  I was about to stop the match myself until you knocked him out."

    Chris says, "Yeah well, I’d do it again in an instant for what he’s been doing to her."

    Vince says, "Don’t worry, he will be taken care of.  Let’s concentrate on Jessica right now."

    After a bit longer the doctor comes out.  He says, "Are you here with Jessica Adamson?"

    Chris says, "Yes, we all are.  Is she going to be alright?  How is she?"

    The doctor says, "Well it took 24 stitches to close up the wound on the back of her head.  She does have a severe concussion.  Whatever she was hit with did a lot of damage.  Most especially to her back.  According to her she couldn’t feel her legs after the first few times she was hit.  He seemed to have broken her back which is why she can’t feel her legs right now."

    Chris interrupts, "Is it permanent?"

    The doctor continues, "It’s hard to say.  If she works at it she can walk again.  She needs to start an extensive rehabilitation program immediately.  We put a back brace on her, I think with proper rehab she can be 100% again.  Mentally I think might be a bit more difficult.  She has to put her mind completely on rehabbing or she won’t walk again.  Is one of you named Chris?"

    Chris answers, "Yeah, that’s me."

    Doctor says, "She’s been asking for you.  You can see her for a few minutes, and then you’ll have to come back in the morning.  We gave her a pain killer so she won’t be awake much longer."

    Chris says, "Okay, I’ll be back in a few minutes."

    Chris heads to the room and opens the door.  He is shocked at what he sees.  Even with the brace on they have her in traction.  He walks over to the bed and touches her hand.  She looks at him.

    Jess says, "Chris, you came."

    Chris chokes out, "Of course baby, where else would I be."

    Jess says, "I wasn’t sure if the doctor would let you see me.  I had to lie, I told him you were my fiancée."

    Chris replies, "That’s okay baby.  Whatever it took for me to see you.  I’m so sorry baby.  So sorry."

    Jess says, "Chris, I told you before there is nothing for you to be sorry about."

    Chris says, "I wish I could have protected you better.  Vince and Stephanie are here.  We called them, they know everything."

    Jess exclaims, "Oh god, now I’m going to get fired.  They'll never believe it."

    Chris replies, "They do believe it honey.  Jeff and I are witnesses remember.  They will take care of it.  Listen baby, I gotta go before they kick me out.  They won’t let me stay."

    Jess says, "Yeah I know, I already asked the doctor."

    Chris smiles, "Oh Jess, you never cease to surprise me sometimes.  I’ll be back first thing in the morning.  You get some sleep baby."  He kisses me on the lips lightly.  "Nite Jess."

    Jess answers, "Nite Chris.  Try to get some sleep okay."

    Chris just nods and steps out of the room.  He heads back to the waiting room where Jeff, Vince, Stephanie and now Matt are waiting.

    Chris says, "Hey Matt.  What are you doing here?"

    Matt explains, "I couldn’t wait for Jeff's call.  They filled me in on how she is."

    Vince asks, "How is she?"

    Chris answers, "Well aside from being in traction she is scared."

    Stephanie says, "That’s understandable.  The possibility of not walking again would scare anyone."

    Chris replies, "That’s not what she’s scared of.  She’s scared of losing her job because now you know what’s been going on.  I lied to her and told her you believed it."

    Vince says, "You didn’t lie to her Chris.  Yes, it is hard to believe but I do believe her.  She shouldn’t be so concerned about her job.  That’s the least of her worries right now.  It will still be there when she is better.  He will be punished for this not to mention all her medical will be taken out of his paycheck.  I’ll see to that.  Don’t even go through the insurance company, I’ll straighten things out here about the billing.  Now why don’t we head back and get some rest.  Chris I know you want to be back here in the morning.  Also, take as much time as you need off to help her.  Keep me updated if you hear anything before I get here tomorrow."

    Vince and Stephanie leave.  Chris turns to Matt and Jeff with anger flaring in his eyes.

    Chris says, "You guys up for a late night visit?"

    Matt asks, "What did you have in mind?"

    Chris replies, "I think someone deserves a little payback.  I’m not waiting for Vince to dole out his version of punishment.  I have a lot of anger to release right now.  If you two don’t want to come that’s fine."

    Matt says, "I think we should go with you.  At least to keep you from killing him."

    Chris says, "I promise not to kill him.  Yet.  I just want to hurt him.  A lot!  Let’s go, I wanna do this and then get some sleep.  I need to be here in the morning."

    They leave the hospital and head back to the hotel.  Luckily they knew what room Kurt was in and didn’t have to raise any suspicion asking what room he was in.  They get to Kurt’s door and knock on it.  They wait a few minutes until they hear the door being opened.  Chris rushes in grabbing Kurt by the throat, spinning him and slamming him into the wall.  Matt and Jeff just stand off to the side to keep an eye on Chris.

    Chris grins evilly, "Hi Kurt, how nice to see you."

    Kurt says angrily, "What the hell are you doing here?  What do you want?"

    Chris sneers, "Seems you were a little busy tonight.  Say sometime after the show.  Let’s see, what could have had you so busy tonight?  Maybe beating the fuck out of Jessica!!"

   Kurt says, "What the hell are you talking about.  I didn’t do anything to her.  She’s lying through her teeth."

    Chris says, "You better shut up now while you still have the chance.  Oh yeah, you didn’t do anything she’s lying!  She’s lying so well that she got 24 stitches in her head.  She’s lying so well that she’s in traction in the hospital because of a fucking broken back!  Now you going to tell me you didn’t do anything!"

    Kurt thought to himself, Fuck, I broke her back.  I am so fucked. Before he could say anything Chris punched him right in the face.  He slid down the wall and crumpled onto the floor.

    Chris says to Matt and Jeff, "I think my work here is done.  Let’s get out of here."

    They leave and go down the hallway.  Chris stops in front of another door and just stands there for a few minutes.

    Jeff asks, "What’s up Chris?  Whose room is this?"  Even though he was pretty sure whose room it was.

    Chris replies, "I think Adam and Jay should know what happened, especially Adam.  They are going to want to see her, I’m sure."

    Chris knocks on the door and waits for it to be answered.  Jay answers the door and sees Chris, Matt and Jeff standing there.

    Jay says, "Hey guys.  It’s kinda late.  What’s up?"

    Chris says, "We have to talk to you and Adam about something.  It can’t wait until morning."

    Jay says, "Can’t you just tell me?  Adam's sleeping."

    Jeff replies, "I suggest you wake him up.  It’s important, it’s about Jessica."

    Jay waves them inside and walks over to wake up Adam.

    Jay says, "Adam, wake up, we've got visitors.  It’s important."

    Adam wakes up and looks over to see Chris, Matt and Jeff waiting.

    Adam says, "What?  I’m trying to sleep.  Can’t it wait until morning?"

    Jeff says, "No, Adam, it can’t.  It’s about Jessica.  We figured you'd want to know what happened."

    At that Adam was wide-awake, "What happened?  Did Angle do something to Jessica again?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, you could say that.  I want you to listen and let me finish before you say anything.  Both of you."

    Adam and Jay just nod and wait for Chris to continue.  Chris continues recounting what happened, including the fact that he was waiting for Jess.  Adam and Jay are silent for a few minutes.

    Jay says, "He did that to her!  Oh my god!  Can we see her?  I mean I know we can’t now, but in the morning.  Can we go with you?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, I’m going first thing in the morning.  I know she would like to see you guys."  Chris looks over at Adam and says, "Adam?"

    Adam looks up and says, "Yeah, of course I want to go.  Do you think she’ll want to see me?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, she will.  She’s going to need as much support as possible right now.  She’s got a lot to deal with and a long road ahead of her.  I think there is something you should know, only because I don’t want her to be uncomfortable."

    Jay asks, "What’s that?"  He had a feeling what Chris was going to say.

    Chris says, "Well, Jessica and I started seeing each other.  It happened last night when I went to talk to her.  We decided to see where it goes.  I am aware of her feelings for you Adam, but we still decided, together, to see where it goes.  As I said, I’m only telling you now because I don’t want her uncomfortable with you and me in the same room.  I will let her know that you know.  I don’t want any problem Adam.  My main concerns are getting Jessica into a rehab program, and get her walking again.  If it’s going to be a problem for you, then I suggest you don’t see her.  So, Adam, what’s it going to be?"

    Adam thinks for a few minutes before saying, "I won’t be a problem Chris.  I want to help her.  I don’t like that you and she are together, but I guess I’ll have to deal with that for now.  I’ll see you in the morning.  Good night."

    Chris just looks at Adam before turning and leaving the room.

----The next morning----

    Chris was just finishing his breakfast when he sees Jeff come and sit down at his table.

    Jeff says, "Morning Chris."

    Chris mumbles, "Morning."

    Jeff says, "Chris, with all of us helping she will be okay.  We will help her through this Chris."

    Chris replies, "Yeah, I know Jeff.  I can’t help feeling like this is my fault though.  If I didn’t beat him down in the ring last night then he wouldn’t have done this.  I didn’t sleep at all last night because I kept thinking "what if I had done things differently.  I just can’t get out of my head the way she looked when we found her.  It’s killing me knowing that I was the cause of it."

    Jeff looks at Chris and asks him, "Let me ask you something.  What does Jess say?"

    Chris looks at Jeff and replies, "She says that it isn’t my fault.  She was actually blaming herself.  I convinced her that it was all Angle’s fault and not hers."

    Jeff says, "Then try to convince yourself as well Chris.  Because if you keep feeling all this guilt you aren’t going to be much help to her and you are going to end up pushing her away.  You know how she is.  If she thinks for one second that you will be better off without her because of guilt then you know she will act on it. Is that what you want?  Do you want to push her into Adam's arms?"

Chapter 4

Chris just stares at Jeff and says, "No, of course I don’t want that to happen.  You’re right though.  I need to convince myself that it wasn’t my fault.  If Jess doesn’t blame me then I have to try not to blame myself.  It’s so hard though."

    Jeff says, "Yeah but Chris, you know as well as I do that this has been going on for a little while now.  Who knows how far he would have eventually gone without you doing what you did.  From where I stood, the littlest things would set him off.  As you said last night, we have to concentrate on getting her better.  Are you almost ready to go?"

    Chris says, "Yeah, I’m ready to go.  Are Adam and Jay coming with us?"

    Jeff says, "They are waiting in the lobby for us.  Let’s go, I want to, as well as you do, know how she is this morning."

    They meet up with Adam and Jay in the lobby and head off to the hospital.

----The hospital----

    They arrive and Chris leads them up to where Jessica's room is.  They stop outside her door and Chris waits a few minutes.

    Chris says, "I just want to prepare you guys for what you are going to see.  She is in traction for her broken back so she won’t be able to move much.  She can just barely move her head.  Also, the back of her head is shaved so they could put the stitches in.  Let me go in first and let her know you are here to see her.  Be right out."

    Chris steps into the room.  Adam turns to Jeff and says, "I want to kill Angle for this.  What is Vince going to do?"

    Jeff answers, "Well, he said he will personally punish him for this.  As for killing him, well Chris, Matt and I paid him a little visit last night.  So he’s a little worse for wear right now.  You should have seen it, one punch and Angle was crumpled on the floor.  We should call him one punch Chris.  Matt and I were just there to keep him from killing Angle.  Wanted to leave a little something for Vince to deal with."

----In the room----

    Chris walks over to the bed and sees that Jess is awake.

    Chris whispers, "Hey sweetie.  How are you feeling this morning?"

    Jess replies, "Oh Chris!" and starts crying, "It hurts so bad.  I’m still waiting for them to bring me a pain shot.  It hurts to do anything.  I hate this I hate feeling like this.  When is this going to be over?  I just want to get back to normal.  I can’t deal with the pain, it just hurts so badly."

    Chris says, "Oh sweetie, I’m so sorry.  How long ago did you ask them for the shot?"

    Jess replies, "It seems like forever to me.  I think maybe about 15 minutes ago.  They said they would bring it right in.  I bet they forgot about me.  Chris, can you get them to give me my shot please.  Please, it just hurts so bad."

    Chris says, "Anything for you sweetheart.  There are some visitors here to see you.  They can keep you company while I go get a nurse."

    Jess asks, "Who's here?"

    Chris replies, "Jeff, Jay and Adam.  Before you say anything, I told Adam about you and me.  I know you probably didn’t want to yet, but I felt it best so you weren't uncomfortable around him.  I hope you aren’t mad."

    I just look at him for a few minutes without saying anything.  I ask, "What did he say?  Was he mad?"

    Chris replies, "Well, he wasn’t too happy but I put it straight on the line for him.  I told him that right now my main concern was getting you better, that I didn’t want any problems from him as far as we are concerned.  He said he wouldn’t be a problem and said that he accepts that we are together for now.  What exactly that means I don’t know or really care about right now.  My main concern is to get you all better."

    I say, "Well, I guess I understand why you told him.  I wish you didn’t have to, but in a way I’m glad you did and that he actually wants to come and visit me."

    Chris says, "Of course he would want to visit you.  Above all else he is still a friend of yours regardless of what happened between you two the other day.  Okay, I’m gonna tell them they can come in and I will go get a nurse.  If I have to drag one in here to get you a shot I will."

    I reply, "Thank you Chris.  I just want the pain to go away."

    Chris walks out and goes over to Jeff, Adam and Jay.

    Jeff asks, "How is she?"

    Chris says, "She is in a lot of pain right now.  She asked for a shot and they haven’t given it to her yet.  I’m going to find a nurse while you guys visit her.  Remember what I said, especially you Adam.  I told her that you know so don’t go upsetting her.  If you upset her I swear I will kill you."

    Adam says, "I won’t upset her Chris.  I already told you I wouldn’t cause any problems.  Just like you, I care about her and want to help her get better.  Come on guys, let’s go in and see her."

    As they walk away to go into Jesse's room Chris goes in search of the nurses station to get her the shot.  When Chris finally finds the nurses station he sees 3 nurses sitting there chatting.  To say that he was seeing red is an understatement.

----Meanwhile----

    Jeff, Adam and Jay reach Jessica’s room and slowly open the door.  Even though Chris had told them what to expect, they still didn’t know what to expect.  To say they were shocked and angry is an understatement.  They walk in and see that she is trying in vain to get comfortable.  Jay walks over to her and lets her know they are there.

    Jay says, "Hey Jess, how are you doing sweetie?"

    I look up and see them standing there.  I can see the pity in their eyes and it hurts to see them looking at me like that.  I reply, "I’m doing ok I guess.  Did Chris go to get a nurse for my shot?  It really hurts, it just hurts so bad."

    Adam replies, "Yeah, he went to get a nurse to bring you a shot.  We were so worried about you when Chris and Jeff told us what happened.  I want to kill Angle for this, we all do."

    I say, "Oh Adam, you were right.  It should have been taken care of a while ago.  If it had been than this wouldn’t have happened.  It’s all my fault."

    Adam exclaims, "What the hell are you talking about.  It’s not your fault that he did this to you.  He shouldn’t have even started all this crap.  I’m sure Chris has told you the same thing and so will we.  It is not your fault, do you understand me?"

    Jay says, "He’s right Jess, this isn’t your fault.  He will be taken care of.  Vince said himself that he will take care of Kurt.  I don’t know how, but I think he told Chris what he has planned for him.  Right now we all just want to help you get better.  We want you to know that we will be right by your side through all of this.  Okay sweetheart."

    Jeff says, "Absolutely, we want to help you.  So don’t even think for a minute that you can talk us out of it either.  We will help you with whatever you need form us.  I know it will be tough, but all you have to do is put your mind to it and you can do anything.  We believe in you Jess, you have to believe in yourself as well."

    I say, "You have no idea how much that means to me, from all of you.  I will try my best to get better.  Right now I just wish I had that pain shot.  I hope Chris gets back here with a nurse quickly."

    Jeff says, "Knowing Chris, I’m sure there will be a nurse here in a matter of seconds instead of minutes."

----Meanwhile----

    Chris stands there looking at the three nurses waiting for one of them to even notice him.  He is getting more and more pissed as each second goes by.  He thinks to himself what the hell kind of hospital is this?  They sit around talking instead of doing their jobs.

----Jesse’s Room----

    Jay says, "Chris should have been back by now.  I wonder what’s taking so long."

    Jeff says, "I’ll go see what’s taking so long."

    As Jeff goes to leave the room Adam stops him and says, "You stay Jeff, and I’ll go and find him."

    Adam leaves before anyone can say anything.

    Jess says, "Oh god, he hates me doesn’t he.  I can see it in his eyes.  I didn’t mean for this to happen, for Chris and me to get together.  It wasn’t planned, but I just couldn’t deny Chris a chance.  I know he likes me, but Adam has to get around his owns demons first."

    Jay says, "He doesn’t hate you Jess.  Granted he isn’t too happy with you and Chris being together.  I was there when Chris told us.  He also said that he wouldn’t do anything to upset you in any way.  Seeing you like this is killing him Jess, he cares about you so much.  You just have to give him some time to deal with it and the situation.  He desperately wants to help you though."

    I just lay there digesting what Jay just told me wondering where the hell Chris is with the nurse.

----Meanwhile----

    Chris is still standing there waiting for one of the nurses to even notice him standing there.  He sees Adam out of the corner of his eye and puts his finger in front of his mouth as if to say be quiet.  Adam is wondering what the hell is going on and why Chris wants him to be quiet.  Then he sees the reason.  He notices three nurses sitting there talking up a storm and not noticing the two big men standing there.  He sees Chris look at his watch.

    Adam whispers to him,  "What are you doing?"

    Chris whispers back, "I’m counting the minutes that I have been standing here waiting for one of them to even see me standing here.  It’s going on 5 minutes, and my anger is growing with every minute they don’t see me."

    Adam agrees with his tactics but says, "Chris, although I agree with you about being angry, Jess really needs the shot.  She is in so much pain, she was asking for it again."

    Chris replies, "Well, I’m going to get to that right now.  I wasn’t going to wait any longer anyway.  I don’t want her in any more pain than she already is.  Watch this€¦"

    Chris leans down on the counter just staring at the nurses.  He says, "Excuse me, do you think one of you can get the Chief of Staff for me please."

    The three nurses look up to see Chris and Adam standing there.  A young beautiful nurse walks up to them and says, "Well, hello there handsome.  I didn’t see you standing there.  If I had then I would have done anything you wanted me to."  The other two nurses roll their eyes at the forward young nurse.

    Chris smirks at Adam and then says, "Oh really, and what exactly would you have done for me?"

    She says, "Oh anything that you ask sugar.  So what is it I can do for you?"

    Chris replies, "Well, I did ask you to get the Chief of Staff for me.  You did say you would do anything I asked.  Isn’t that right."

    She says, "Oh yeah definitely, but why would you want me to go get him.  He’s an old buzzard and wouldn’t be any fun."

    Chris says, "Well, I want him because I have been standing here for the last five minutes waiting for one of you three to even see me standing here."

    She says, "Hey, it’s no big deal sugar.  I saw you now, we don’t need him."

    The other two nurses have a worried look on their face, especially when they can see and feel the anger coming from Chris.

    Chris says, "Oh, I’m afraid we do.  First of all, because I have been standing here for 5 minutes while you three were talking.  Secondly, because there’s a young woman in that room over there that asked for her pain shot over 15 minutes ago.  Third, you were hitting on me and practically propositioning me.  I don’t think your Chief of Staff would be very happy about either of those things happening."

    She says, "Oh, you mean that poor little thing with the hurt back.  Yeah, she asked for the shot, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.  Been kind of busy."

    Chris can feel the anger rolling off of Adam.  He places his hand on Adam and says, "What did you just say?  You’ve been busy.  Well, all I’ve seen is you three talking and not doing your job.  For your information, that poor little thing as you call her is my girlfriend and can kick your ass even in this condition.  Her condition by the way is a broken back.  So I suggest one of you get on that phone right now and get your Chief of Staff up here right now."

    One of the other nurses steps up to Chris and Adam and says, "Sir, I’m sorry for the way she is conducting herself.  There really is no need for the Chief of Staff.  A report will be written up on her for her behavior.  I will write up the report myself and hand it in to the proper heads."  She looks to the young flirtatious nurse giving her a look as if to say, don't worry, nothing is going to happen€™.

    Chris notices the look however and says, "Nope, sorry, that’s not good enough.  First and foremost one of you had better get in that room right now and give my girlfriend her shot.  Second, I am not going anywhere until I see the Chief of Staff.  I don’t care if you have to drag his ass out of bed.  If I don’t see the Chief of Staff here in 30 minutes I will get charges pressed against this hospital so fast it would make your head spin, not to mention charges against you three.  Believe me, I can do it."

    One of the nurses goes into Jesse’s room to give her the shot while the other older nurse calls down to the office.

----Jesse’s Room----

    Jeff and Jay are talking with Jess as the nurse walks in.  They notice that the nurse looks worried and maybe a little agitated.  The nurse walks over to Jess and gets the shot ready.  She doesn’t even prepare Jess for the shot, just preps her arm with a little alcohol and jabs her with the needle giving her the pain medication.

    Jess exclaims, "Ouch, that hurt.  Why the hell did you jab me so hard?"

    Nurse says sarcastically, "Oh so sorry.  Didn’t mean to hurt you there, but you see I do have other patients to tend to.  Excuse me for doing my job there little princess."

    The nurse is about to leave when Jay grabs her arm and turns her around to face him.

    Jay says, "Excuse me, but do you talk to all your patients that way.  I think you need to apologize to her and get your act together."

    The nurse says, "Apologize!  You have got to be kidding me.  Why should I apologize to her?  I was just doing my job."

    Jay says, "Because if you don’t apologize to her I will get your ass fired."

    The nurse says, "Oh really, well hate to break it to ya buddy but I’m half way to being fired because of that little bitch." 

    After saying that the nurse leaves the room.

    Jay and Jeff just look at her shocked at what she said.  They turn towards Jess when they hear her crying.

    Jeff runs over to her and asks, "Jess, what’s wrong sweetie?"

    Jess just mumbles, "Why does everyone hate me so much.  I didn’t do anything to her.  I just wanted my shot." 

    After saying that the medicine takes over and she falls asleep.

    Jay looks to Jeff and says, "What the hell was that all about?"

    Jeff replies, "I have no idea.  I have a feeling it has to do with Chris and Adam still being at the nurse's station though.  She’s asleep now, why don’t we go to the nurse’s station and find out what’s gong on."

    They look at Jess before they leave the room.  Wondering how she is going to get through this.

----Meanwhile----

    Chris and Adam are still waiting when Jeff and Jay walk up to them.  Adam sees them and wonders why they look a bit pissed off.

    Adam says, "Hey guys.  Jess ok?"

    Jay says, "Yeah, I guess she is.  But after the shot she just got I’m not sure if she will be okay when she wakes up.  The medicine kicked in and she is asleep right now.  We decided to come out here and find out what’s going on."

    Adam says, "Well, we seem to have a bit of a problem here.  We are waiting for the Chief of Staff to get here.  These three nurses are going to have a few problems when this is all over."

    Jay says, "Well, then I guess that would explain why the nurse that gave Jess the shot treated her like a pin cushion rather than a patient in pain."

    Chris whips his head towards Jay and asks, "What?  What happened?"

    Jay and Jeff then tell Chris about what happened when the nurse gave Jess the shot.  Not thinking that it was at all possible Chris got even angrier.  Chris looks at the nurses and sees the other two nurses looking at the one that gave the shot with death looks.

    Chris says, "Well, then you know what.  I hope all three of you get your ass fired and lose your licenses.  In fact I will make sure that this hospital gets the worst reputation in the country.  Jay, why don’t you give Vince a call I’m sure he would love to know about this.  We are going to get her out of this hospital today."

    Jay goes to call Vince.  Chris just looks at the nurses with a smug and satisfied look on his face.


----30 minutes later----

    The guys are still standing by the nurse’s station when they hear the elevator opening up.  They see both Vince and the Chief of Staff step out.  Chris gets a huge satisfied grin on his face when he sees both of them.  Good he says to him, I can kill two birds with one stone.

    Vince says, "What’s the matter guys.  Jay called and said to get down here right away."

    Chris looks beyond Vince to the Chief of Staff and says, "I want Jess out of this hospital immediately.  We all want her out of here."

    Vince looks at Chris confused and then asks, "Why, what’s happened.  You know we can’t really move her right now.  At least I don’t think we can.  We’ll have to check with the doctor."

    The Chief of Staff asks, "What seems to be the problem here gentleman.  I heard you say that you want a patient out of here right away."

    Chris glances over to the nurses shaking in there seats.  Chris says, "I think we should go somewhere to talk.  All of us, we need to discuss the horrible treatment my girlfriend is getting in this hospital."

    Vince just nods and the Chief looks shocked at his words.  The Chief says, "I assure you sir that your girlfriend is getting the best of care here.  This is one of the best hospitals in the city."

    Chris says, "Oh really, then I definitely think we need to talk.  Let’s go somewhere private away from listening ears."  He looks to the nurses with a very satisfied grin.

    They all follow the Chief of Staff to his office to talk.

----Sometime later----

    They come out of the office and the Chief of Staff stops in front of the three nurses.  He says to them, "You three have been deplorable in your attitude and negligent in your duties.  You three are fired and I will have your licenses revoked.  I will not allow you to mar the good record that this hospital has, not to mention putting patients health at risk.  Leave immediately, if you don’t I will have security throw you out."

    He then turns to Chris and says, "Sir, I apologize on behalf of these three for the deplorable treatment of your girlfriend.  There will be no cost for the time she has been here or the treatments she has already received here.  She will be ready to move in two hours to the hospital of your choice.  Again, I am sorry sir."

    He turns to Vince and says, "I have done what you asked, and I assume you will keep your end of the arrangement."

    Vince just nods and the Chief walks away.  The three nurses gather their things and start to leave.  The young nurse turns to Chris and says, "You know, we could have had some fun together, but you had to go and ruin it.  Thanks for nothing."

    Chris replies, "Well, for your information I don’t sleep with tramps."

    That shocks the young nurse and she is about to reply when the other two grab her arm and drag her out.

    Vince turns to Chris and says, "I can’t believe that those three did those things.  I have never heard of such behavior."

    Adam says, "Believe me Vince, all of us are witnesses to what they did and in some cases what they didn’t do.  That’s why we all wanted to be in there to talk to the Chief of Staff.  So now what?  She is going to be moved to another hospital.  Which one?"

    Vince says, "I guess that’s up to Chris.  Since he is the one who is going to be taking care of her."

    Chris thinks for a few minutes and then says, "I thought about going back to Canada, but right now it’s too cold up there.  I’m sure that won’t be much good for her.  We all know how the cold can affect injuries.  So I guess I’ll take her to Florida, I do have my house down there."

    Vince says, "Okay, I’ll get things prepared for her to be moved to Florida.  You do understand though this trip will hurt her.  They did advise not to move her at least for a little while."

    Chris says, "Yeah I realize that Vince, but I will not have her in this place any longer."

    Adam says, "I agree with Chris.  We can’t keep her here.  Florida is warmer and would be better for her."

    Vince replies, "I know Adam, I was just saying this won’t be an easy trip for her.  If all of you want to go with her than you can.  I will also deal with Angle this afternoon after you leave."

     Vince leaves to make the arrangements for Jessica to be moved to Florida while the guys go to check on Jess once more before going back to the hotel to get their stuff to leave.

---- A Few Weeks Later----

    Chris is preparing dinner while Jess is rehabbing in the room he had set up for her.  He thinks back over the last weeks.  Vince had been right, the trip was very hard on her.  Unfortunately it was necessary.  Jess had been in the hospital up until a week ago.  Now it was up to her and the physical therapist to continue.  Adam, Jay and Jeff had been calling pretty much every day to see how she was doing.  They couldn’t visit as much as they wanted to being on the road.  They all did their best to encourage her, but Chris knows how hard it’s been on her.  Chris was also starting to worry about her taking too many pain pills.  She seemed to be coming attached to them insisting she needed them.  Maybe she did, but then again maybe she didn’t need them as much as she said.  He was going to keep better track of the pills.  He doesn’t want her to become addicted to them.

    Chris was jerked out of his thoughts when he heard screaming.

    "I can’t do this.  Get out and leave me alone."

    He heard some muffled words then he heard, "I said get out.  Get the fuck out of here and don’t bother coming back."

    Chris sighed and walked to the room where he knew the yelling was coming from.  He sees and hears the physical therapist trying to get Jess to sit up.

    Chris says, "Come on babe, you know you have to do this.  I know you can do this."

    Jess replies, "No I can’t.  I’ve told Nancy I can’t do it.  She insists I can."

    Chris sighs and says, "You can do this.  This is the next step in your rehab.  I know it hurts, but you can do it.  I believe you can, you just have to believe it yourself.  I’m going to finish dinner."

    Nancy walks after Chris and goes to talk to him in the kitchen.

    Nancy says, "You know this isn’t going to work if she doesn’t cooperate.  She doesn’t want to do what she’s supposed to."

    Chris replies, "Yeah, I noticed that.  I’ll talk to her see if I can get her to work some more.  I’ll see what I can do."

    Nancy says, "I’ll see you tomorrow."

    Chris replies, "Yeah, I’ll see you tomorrow."

    Chris finishes dinner and brings it into Jess.

    Chris says, "Dinner is ready.  Here you go sweetie."

    Jess replies, "Thank you Chris.  You don’t have to do this you know.  You can put me into a place to rehab.  I feel bad that you are waiting on me.  I wish I could make it up to you."

    Chris says, "Don’t worry baby.  I don’t mind helping you.  You really have to try harder.  You know I believe in you baby."

    He leans down to kiss her.  He deepens it quickly wanting more.  He searches her mouth with his tongue delving deeper.  She moans in pleasure wanting more but knowing she can’t give him more.  She pulls away and he looks at her.

    Chris asks, "What’s wrong babe?"

    Jess says, "You know I can’t do anything.  I’m useless and broken.  You would be better off without me and having to take care of me.  Put me in a home or something so I won’t be in the way."

    Chris replies, "Babe, you are not broken.  I would never send you away.  I love you baby and I want to help you as much as I can.  So what if you can’t do anything, I can still do things for you.  Please, I don’t ever want to hear you say things like that."

    I just look at him wondering if I heard him say what I think he said, "You love me?"

    Chris is silent for a few minutes.

    Jess asks again, "You love me?"

    Chris replies, "Yeah, I love you.  Don’t ask me when it happened, but it did.  I know it probably isn’t what you wanted to hear and I know this isn’t exactly how I wanted to tell you.  I know things aren’t easy for you right now, so you can just forget that I said it.  I don’t want to push you or make you uncomfortable.  I just want to help you get better baby.  I want to help you as much as I can."

    Jess just looks at him for a minute and then says again, "You love me.  How can you when I’m not a complete person.  Look what he did to me, and there is nothing I can do to take what he did to me back.  I don’t know if I will ever be 100% again.  You don’t deserve that in your life.  I don’t want to be a burden to you and that’s exactly what I’ll be if I don’t get completely better."

    Chris says, "Babe, you aren’t 100% yet.  But if you put your mind to it you can do it sweetheart.  I will help you.  How about if I work with you and the physical therapist?  Maybe if you have someone working with you it will help.  I would be more than happy to do that for you.  For us."

    Jess says, "I don’t know Chris.  I don’t want you to have to see me that way.  It’s bad enough that I take it out on Nancy, but you don’t need to be the brunt of it either.  I couldn’t take it if I took out my frustrations out on you.  I would rather you not be in here when I am doing my rehab."

    Chris says, "Okay sweetheart, if that’s what you want.  Why don’t you have some dinner before it gets cold?  Before I forget, Adam is coming by tomorrow to see you.  He’ll be here sometime in the afternoon."

    Jess just nods, not really wanting to see anyone much less Adam. 

    Chris says, "I’m going to go and clean up the dishes.  I’ll be back in a bit."

    Jess doesn’t say anything again just nodding.  Chris sighs and walks out of the room.

    ----In the kitchen----

    Chris stands there thinking for a few minutes before getting an idea.  He picks up the phone and dials a familiar number.  He waits for it to be answered.

Chapter 5

----The next morning----

    Chris wakes up and walks softly to Jesse’s bedroom.  He didn’t like the fact that she had her own room, but she refused to stay in the same room with him.  He had to find a way to make her see that she is not an incomplete person.  She didn’t feel he needed to be burdened with someone like her.  He felt differently and often told her that, but she found it hard to believe.  He was hoping that Adam’s visit today would help her a little.  He was also a little worried, knowing how Adam felt about her.  He hadn’t asked her but he was pretty sure she still had strong feelings for Adam.

    He looks into the room and sees her sleeping soundly.  He quietly walks over to her and sits down gently on the edge of the bed.  He lightly brushes a piece of hair behind her ear.  He kisses her softly on the lips, but she remains sleeping.  He smiles and stands up and leaves the room.  He walks into the kitchen to start breakfast.  He had decided to make breakfast special for Jess.  He gets everything prepared and put on a tray.  He took a rose from a bouquet that was sent to Jess a couple of days ago.  He puts it in a little vase and puts it on the tray with the food.  He walks into her room and sees she is still sleeping.  He puts the tray down and goes to wake her up.

    Chris says, "Jess sweetie, it’s time to get up."

    She stirs slowly waking up.  She opens her eyes and sees Chris sitting next to her.  She smiles up at him.  He strokes her cheek lovingly and leans down to kiss her.  Not expecting it she gasps lightly and he takes the initiative and slips his tongue into her mouth.  She moans into his mouth loving the feeling that is going through her body.  He takes that as an invitation to deepen the kiss.  He is pleasantly surprised when she doesn’t pull away like she has in the past.  He slowly lies down next to her just loving the feeling of her body next to his.  He doesn’t push it, not wanting to scare her away again.  He moans when he feels her hands start traveling up his back pulling him closer.  He deepens the kiss a bit more and pulls her even closer wanting her as close against his body as possible.  He feels her hands move to the front of him and feels her hand rub his now prominent bulge.  He moves his hips to feel her hand harder on his erection.  She pulls away from the kiss and looks him in the eyes.

    Jess says, "Chris I want to apologize for the way I have been treating you.  I thought about what you said last night, and you’re right.  I can be 100% again if I put my mind to it.  You have helped me so much these past few weeks and I really appreciate it."

    Chris replies, "Oh baby, I do it because I want to.  Like I told you last night, I love you.  I want to help you as much as I can."

    Jess pulls him to her and kisses him deeply.  Chris moans into her mouth and feels her rubbing his bulge again.

    Jess whispers, "Chris, please make love to me.  I need you so much, you make me so complete."

    Chris just looks at her and smiles.  He leans down again to kiss her and pulls her to him.  He moans when he feels her rubbing his bulge.  He slides his hand down her body and under her nightshirt.  He gently eases his hand to her breasts and starts rubbing them teasing the nipples with his fingers.  She arches her back to what he is doing to her.  He lifts the shirt up to expose her breasts.  He looks up at her and sees her looking at him with desire in her eyes.  As he is looking at her he lowers his mouth and licks her nipple with his tongue.  He sucks and licks her nipples driving her insane.  He kisses down her stomach and licks around her belly button.  He moves back up to her breasts and slides his hand slowly down her body to her panties.  He starts rubbing her through her panties.  He hears her moaning and slides his hand inside her panties wanting desperately to feel her wetness.  He rubs his finger lightly over her clit and she raises her hips for more pressure.  He moves his mouth up to hers and captures in a searing kiss while circling her clit with his fingers.  He plunges one finger into her and he catches her moan in his mouth.  He can feel her walls tightening around his finger.  All of a sudden he feels her climax and works her through it knowing it had been a while for her.

    Chris whispers, "How did that feel baby?  Did that feel good?"

    Jess replies, "It felt incredible.  You know what would feel even more incredible?"

    Chris asks, "What would that be?"  Already knowing what the answer was going to be.

    Jess says, "What would feel even more incredible would be you inside me.  Please Chris, make love to me like it’s the first time again."

    Chris looks into her eyes and says, "It would be my pleasure Jess."

     Chris stands up and sheds his clothes.  He looks at her and groans when he sees her licking her lips.  He knew that look, she had given him that look once before.  The night they first made love she wanted to do that to him but he couldn’t wait.  He slowly lays down to her on the bed and starts caressing her.  He slides his hand down to her panties and pulls them off.  He moves softly on top of her not wanting to hurt her.  He slips inside her and waits for her to adjust to his size.  He sees that she has her eyes clamped shut.  He thinks he is hurting her.

    Chris asks, "Jess baby, am I hurting you?  If I am I will stop."

    Jess answers, "Don’t you dare stop.  You aren’t hurting me it just feels so good Chris.  You feel so good.  It feels like forever since I have felt you inside me.  Please don’t stop."

    Chris says, "I won’t baby.  But I want you to let me know if I am hurting you."

    Jess says, "You won’t hurt me Chris, at least not on purpose.  I want to feel like I did that first night with you."

    Chris says, "Don’t worry Jess, you will feel even better than you did that night."

    He starts to thrust into her slowly, wanting to make her feel so good.  He was having trouble controlling himself he just wanted to thrust into her so badly.  He knew he couldn’t without hurting her so he did his best to control his temptation.  He made love to her slowly bringing her so many feelings that he knew that she would be fine.  Going slowly was driving him insane but he did it for her.  He wanted her to feel like she has never felt before.  He felt her walls closing around his erection and couldn’t take it anymore.  He started thrusting a little faster to make her cum.  He felt her orgasm go through her body and he followed shortly after.  After their bodies calmed down they just laid there holding each other.

    We just lay there holding each other for what seemed like forever.  I look at Chris and see him looking at me.  I lean up to him and kiss him lightly on the lips.

    I say, "Thank you Chris."

    He asks, "For what sweetie?"

    I reply, "For making me feel again.  I may not feel my legs but you have made me feel like a human being again and for that I want to thank you."

    He says, "You don’t have to thank me baby.  I would do anything for you. You know that.  Now, why don’t I go and take care of the kitchen and you rest.  Remember we are having a visitor today."

    I say, "Yeah, I remember that Adam is coming to visit.  That doesn’t bother you?  That someone I used to be in love with is coming to visit me."

  Chris looks at me and says, "Used to be in love with?  You mean you aren’t in love with Adam anymore?"

    I reply, "Well, I do still care about him a lot but I don’t think it is love anymore.  I guess I’ll know for sure when he gets here.  I’m sorry Chris."

    Chris asks, "What are you sorry for?  I knew how you felt about him when we got together.  And it doesn’t bother me that he is coming to visit you, I’m a bit more secure than that.  I trust you, so there is nothing for me to worry about."

    I say, "Oh Chris, you are so understanding.  I do care about you a lot.  I think perhaps that I may be starting to fall in love with you."

    Chris replies, "Well baby, I won’t force you so you take your time.  I’m not going anywhere."

    I look at him and say, "Oh yes you are."

    Chris looks at me perplexed and asks, "What?  Where am I going?"

    I laugh and say, "You are going to the kitchen remember."

    Chris laughs and gives me a hug and a kiss before leaving the room.  I lay thinking about the incredible morning we shared together.  I was honest with Chris when I said that I might be starting to fall in love with him.  I already know he loves me.  I lay there thinking when I hear the doorbell.  I was wondering if it was my therapist or Adam.  I couldn’t hear what was being said so I waited to see who would be coming into my room. 

    I was lying there just thinking about what I wanted to do to make myself 100% again.  I heard a sound at the door and looked up.  I wasn’t too sure I wanted to see the person that was standing there but I put on my best smile.

    I say, "Hey there.  Come on in."

    Adam asks, "How are you feeling?  I know I haven’t been by in a while, but I had to come see you."

    I reply, "I know Adam, you have to work.  I understand.  I’m feeling okay I guess.  I get down on myself a lot, but I think Chris was able to give me a boost to get me working on getting better."

    Adam says, "Well, I’m glad he is helping you baby."

    I ask, "So how have you been Adam?"

    Adam replies, "I’ve been ok.  I’m better now that I see you."

    I look at Adam and into those green eyes of his.  I feel the sexual tension between us but I hold back.  I don’t want to hurt Chris.  He leans down and kisses me softly on the lips.  I pull back and bite my bottom lip as I turn my head away from him.

    Adam says, "What’s the matter baby.  I’ve been dying to do that for so long.  Chris is busy and it’s just you and me for a little while."

    I reply, "Adam, we can’t.  We can’t do this.  I can’t do this to Chris.  He has been so good to me, helping me and everything."

    Adam asks, "Let me ask you just one thing.  Do you still love me?"

    I look at Adam and don’t know what to say.  I say, "What does it matter Adam."

    Adam says, "It does matter to me.  I want to know if you still love me, because I finally got everything straightened out in my own head.  I’ve actually been thinking about this since that night we talked.  I want to know if you still love me because I love you.  I always have but I just couldn’t admit it to myself."

    I just look at Adam not knowing what to say.  I had wanted to hear that from him for so long.  Now he says it, but I don’t know how I feel about him now.  I look at him and can see the intensity in his eyes.

    I don’t say anything for a little while.  In the meantime Adam is looking at me intensely.  I bite my bottom lip and I notice him staring at my lips.  I turn my head away to avoid looking at him.  I don’t know what to say to him. 

    Adam says, "Babe, are you going to answer me."

    I reply, "Adam, do you remember what I said to you that night?"

    Adam says with a smile, "Yeah I do.  You said that you loved me." 

    I ask, "What else did I say Adam?  Do you remember the whole conversation?"

    Adam looks down and says, "Yeah I do remember.  I’m guessing this is where you tell me that it’s too late isn’t it?"

    I say, "I don’t know what to tell you Adam.  After all this time you come here and you suddenly tell me that you love me.  I will tell you that I don’t know what I feel for you right now.  Things are going well with Chris and I don’t want to hurt him.  He loves me, he told me that last night.  I was also honest with him when I told him that I thought I was falling in love with him and that I wasn’t sure if I was still in love with you.  I do care about you a lot."

    Adam says, "Well, I’m not going anywhere.  I love you and if I have to I will prove it to you.  I’ll do whatever I can to get you back into my life.  I want to kiss you when you wake up and when you go to sleep.  I want to make love to you so sweet that you’ll be overdosed with sugar.  I want to feel you under me, around me, letting go with everything you have.  I want you so badly I ache with need."

    He leans down and kisses me fiercely.  I gasp at the suddenness and he sees that as an invitation to explore my mouth with his tongue.  I fall into the kiss for a few minutes and then came to my senses.  I push Adam away and let out a sigh.

    I say, "Adam I can’t do this.  You have to leave."

    Adam says, "I know you responded to me, I felt it.  I’ll leave for now, but I will be back."

    Adam walks out of the room and leaves me to thinking about what he said and what happened.  I didn’t know what to do.  I know just from that kiss that I do still love him, but I also know that I am falling in love with Chris.

    I look up when I hear a sound at the doorway.  I see Chris standing there with Adam.  I couldn’t look at them.

    Chris says, "Jess, we want to talk to you about something."

    I watch as Adam and Chris enter the room and sit down on either side of me.  I start to feel a little trapped and try to sit up.  In doing so I cause myself pain not being able to fully sit up yet.  Chris stops me and lays me back down.

    Chris says, "Jess, please lay down.  I don’t want you to hurt yourself.  Wait for your therapist to come before trying to sit up again."

    I reply, "I was trying to sit up because I am feeling trapped between you two right now.  What do you want to talk to me about?"

    Chris sighs and says, "Adam and I have been talking."

    I interrupt him saying, "Chris I’m sorry I wasn’t expecting him to kiss me.  I pushed him away I swear."

    Chris puts a hand on my arm and says, "Hey, it’s okay babe.  I know he kissed you, he told me."

    I ask, "He told you?"

    Chris says, "Yes, he told me.  He told me what you two talked about and what he wants.  Now listen to me Jess before you say anything okay."

    I reply, "Okay Chris, I’ll listen."

    Chris sighs and says, "Now, I knew from the beginning that you were in love with Adam.  I’m not mad about that and you know that.  You also know that I love you, but that Adam also loves you.  I don’t want you to have to choose between us, so I am going to let you go.  I know this is what you really want and I’m willing to get out of the way."

    I exclaim, "No!  Chris No!  I don’t want to let you go.  Chris I am falling in love with you.  I already told Adam how I feel, that I wasn’t sure if I was in love with him anymore.  If I have to choose then I want to be with you Chris.  I’m sorry Adam, but I told you that night that I wasn’t going to wait forever."

    Chris asks uncertainly, "Jess, what would you say if I told you that you didn’t have to choose between us?"

    I look at Chris and Adam and ask, "What do you mean if I didn’t have to choose?"

    Adam says, "What if you were able to have both of us.  Would you want both of us?"

    I just lay there looking at them like they were crazy, but then thought.  Could it work?  Could I have both of them and be happy?  Would they be happy to share me between them?

   I don’t say anything for a bit still not believing what they said to me.  How does a woman answer to something like that?  I just continued to look a them like they had gone crazy.

    I finally say, "What you are telling me is that if I wanted to have both of you then I could.  That, I guess, you would share me.  I really don’t know what to say.  This is not something I expected."

    Chris says, "Babe, we know this isn’t what you expected.  Neither of us wants to be without you though.  We still need to talk about a few things, but we want to be with you.  All three of us."

    I ask, "How would this work.  I would be with one of you one night and the other one the next night?  I can just imagine what people would say if they saw me with you one night Chris and Adam the next night.  They would think that I was a slut or cheating on you.  Either way it would be bad for me."

    Adam says, "No, it wouldn’t be that way.  When we say all of us together we mean all three of us in the same room.  We wouldn’t shuffle you between our rooms or anything like that.  We would share a room and see how it goes from there.  I mean if there is a night that you want to be with just one of us then that will be fine by us.  But we will be sharing everything."

    I look at them before saying, "I don’t know.  I need to think about it."

    Chris says, "Okay sweetie, take your time.  We aren’t going anywhere.  Well, Adam is.  He has to leave in a little while to catch his flight to the next show."

    Chris and then Adam lean down to give me a kiss on the lips.  I can’t help but feel self-conscious when Adam kisses me.  When I look up at Chris I see a smile on his face.  Obviously they are serious about this and I need to think about what this will mean for me.

----Six Months Later----

    I was so excited.  I was finally better and able to walk.  I wasn’t walking very fast but I was walking nonetheless.  Chris had been great during the whole time encouraging me with everything he had.  I was finally able to go back on the road with everyone again.  I’m not able to help with the ring set up but Chris had spoken to Vince and arranged to have me be his Personal Assistant.  At this point I didn’t care what I did as long as I could go back on the road. 

    Chris and I had talked about Adam and us a couple of times during the past six months.  He told me many times that he didn’t have a problem with Adam joining us.  I still hadn’t made a decision but I had given it a lot of thought.  We were leaving tomorrow to meet up with everyone in Chicago.  I hear Chris walk into the room and I turn towards him.  He comes over to me and wraps his arms around me and leans down giving me a lingering kiss.

    Chris asks, "So, are you ready to leave tomorrow?  I bet you can’t wait to see everyone.  I know a few people who are looking forward to seeing you, but one person in particular."

    I reply, "Yeah, I can’t wait to see everyone again."

    Chris asks, "Especially Adam?"

    I look at him before saying, "Well, I do miss him.  But I’m not going to seek him out as soon as we get there.  There are a few others I need to see as well.  I need to see Jeff and Matt.  Plus I need to talk to Stephanie and Vince and thank them for everything that they did for us."

    Chris says, "Babe, I told you.  I don’t have a problem with Adam if that’s what you want.  You know I love you no matter what, right?"

    I reply, "Yes, Chris I know you love me.  You know what though?"

    Chris asks, "What?"

    I look at him with a smile and I say, "These last few months you have been nothing but good to me.  Helping me every step of the way.  There is something I need to tell you though."

    Chris asks, "What is it Jess?  What do you need to tell me?"

    I lean into Chris giving him a passionate lingering kiss.  When I pull away I look into his eyes and see the love and desire in them.  I smile up at him and he pulls me into another kiss deepening it quickly.  When I pull away I can see the disappointment in his face.

    I say, "Let me tell you what I want to tell you Chris.  I don’t want to wait any longer."

    Chris looks worried and says, "Okay.  Go ahead I’m listening."

    I say, "Well first of all Chris, get that worried look off your face.  It isn’t anything for you to worry about.  In fact I can pretty much guarantee that it is something you have been waiting for me to tell you."

    Chris gives me a quick kiss and says, "Okay.  What is it?"

    I look into his eyes and say, "Chris, as I said you have helped me so much these past months.  You have been absolutely wonderful, caring and loving.  I love you Chris.  I’m sorry it took so long, but I love you."

     He looks at me not quite believing what I said.  He says, "Say that again."

    I, again, look into his eyes and say, "I love you."

    He looks at me and smiles.  He says, "Oh baby, you don’t know how much I have wanted to hear those three words from you.  I love you so much."

    He leans down and claims me in a kiss that took my breath away.  I start to move backwards until my legs hit the bed.  I fall back on the bed bringing him with me.  He leans up on his arms looking down into my eyes and sees the love burning in them.  I pull his head down kissing him fiercely wrapping my legs around him pulling his body to mine letting him know exactly what I want to do.

    He breaks the kiss and smirks at me.  He says, "Oh, somebody is in the mood isn’t she."

    I reply, "Oh yeah.  I am very much in the mood.  I need you so badly right now Chris.  Please make love to me.  I want to feel you inside me, filling me up."

    Chris looks deep into my eyes and says, "It would be my pleasure baby.  I would love to make love to you."

    Chris is taking my breath away with a kiss.  A kiss that I can feel burning right down to my toes.  I use my legs to pull him closer again and groan when I feel the barriers of our clothes.  I bring my hands up to his shirt and start pulling it up and off his body.  I stop when I realize that he won’t stop kissing me to take his shirt off.  I groan in frustration and pull away from the heating kiss. 

    I say, "Chris baby, I want you naked.  I want you naked NOW!"

    Chris chuckles before leaning up so he can remove his shirt.  He moves his hands to his shirt but then feels my hands on his stopping him.  I move his hands out of the way so I can take his shirt off.  As I am taking his shirt off I am licking my way up his chest to his neck.  I hear him groan and know that I am making him crazy.  After taking his shirt off I kneel on the bed with Chris in front of me.  I push him so he ends up lying on his back on the bed.  I rake my fingernails down his chest until I reach the top of his leather pants.  I start to undo the belt and then the button and zipper taking my time.

    I whisper to Chris, "Do you have any idea how hot you look in leather."

    Chris just groans when he feels my hand slide into his pants touching him lightly.  I slowly slide his pants off his hips and down his legs.  I can see his arousal through his boxers and lick my lips.  Chris sees this and growls at the sight.  I slowly and methodically slide his boxers down his legs blowing on his erection and seeing it jump in response.  I didn’t know what jumped more, Chris or is erection.  After totally removing his pants and boxers I move up so my mouth is right over his erection. 

    I flick my tongue out to touch the tip tasting his pre-cum.  I take him into my mouth all the way and hum.

    Chris gasps, "Oh fuck."

    I continue doing this feeling his erection getting even harder in my mouth.  He is pumping into my mouth as I move up and down on him.  I can feel him getting closer to his climax and I move even faster and sucking him even harder. 

    I taste his cum as it shoots into my mouth as he shouts, "Oh shit!"

    I suck him dry of every drop that comes into my mouth while his body calms down.  After a few minutes I look at him and see a smirk on his face.  He pulls me up to him kissing me fiercely flipping me so that I am under him.

    He says huskily, "Now it’s my turn."

    Chris kisses me fiercely moving his hand down my body.  He slides his hand under my shirt lightly moving it over my abdomen.  He pulls me up and removes my shirt showing my white lace bra.  He reaches behind me and unclasps my bra and pulling it off me releasing my breasts to his gaze.  My nipples get hard just from his gaze and I feel him flick one of them with his tongue.  I arch my back wanting him to do more.  He takes my nipple into his mouth sucking on its tip hungrily.  He moves to the other one doing the same to that one, while his hand slides down to my pants.  He flicks the button on my jeans and I hear the zipper as it is pulled down.  I feel his hand move its way under my pants and panties and start to stroke me lightly.  I arch my hips for more pressure from his hand.  He lifts his head and looks at me through hooded eyes.  He smirks at me as he moves down my body licking and nipping my skin. 

    He reaches my pants and slowly moves them, with my panties, down my legs and removes them completely.  He looks at me and then slowly moves up my body until he reaches the juncture at my thighs.  He licks his lips before swiping his tongue up my clit.  I moan and lift my hips when I feel his tongue on me.  I feel him lick me a few more times before entering me with his tongue, while he lightly strokes my bundle of nerves with his finger.  My moaning gets louder as I feel my orgasm getting closer.  He continues this until my orgasm crashes over me and he drinks up my juices. 

    Before my body even has a chance to calm down he moves up my body and plunges into me with his hard cock.  He starts thrusting slowly at first then not being able to keep his control he starts thrusting harder and faster.  My walls start to clench again as a second orgasm is starting to come over me.  My orgasm crashes through my whole body as I hear Chris shout out my name as he climaxes right after me.

    After our bodies calm down we remain laying there holding each other.  I snuggle into his arms loving the feeling of his arms around me.

    I look at him and say, "I love you."

    Chris looks at me and says, "I love you too my darling."

    We fall asleep in each others arms not waking up except to make love some more during the night.
