Still Can't Get Over You

Chapter 26

The following night;
Jeff's POV;

H and Shannon had just stumbled backstage after H's fight, she was breathless but beaming at her win and seemingly happy to have had Shannon at her side while doing it. We chatted for a few moments, as we watched on the titron as Dylan made her way down to the ring.

As scripted she had gone out there alone, to face Melina who demanded a rematch after the previous night. I was to stand in the background, behind the scenes and watch as Dylan once again gets the upper hand only for Hawkins and Ryder to come out and try to get the better of her, then make my way down to the ring to be the 'hero'. God if only the writers knew what they were asking of us!

The three of us stood and listened as Dylan's entrance music played out loud and clear;

I been knocked down so many times

Counted out 6, 7, 8, 9

Written off like some bad deal

If you're breathing you know how it feels

Call it karma, call it luck

Me, I just don't give a...fu, fu, fu, fu

Bounce, Bounce Nothing's gonna keep me down

Bounce, Bounce Stand up, shout it out

Bounce, Bounce I play hard, I play to win

Count me out, count me in

I'll be bouncing back again

This ain't no game; I play it hard

Kicked around, cut, stitched and scarred

I'll take the hit but not the fall

I know no fear, still standing tall

You can call it karma, call it luck

Me, I just don't give a...fu, fu, fu, fu

Bounce, Bounce Nothing's gonna keep me down

Bounce, Bounce Stand up, shout it out

Bounce, Bounce I play hard, I play to win

Count me out, count me in

I'll be bouncing back again

Bounce!

Dylan was a huge Bon Jovi fan so picking the title song to her favourite album done by the band was absolutely no surprise.

"Ok we are gonna go shower and change, see you in a bit!" H announced as I became lost in the energy that seemed to follow Dylan around no matter where she was, people said that I had the 'it' factor but there was absolutely no doubt in my head that Dylan possessed it in buckets.

No matter what was going on, on the screen I just couldn't seem to bring my eyes away from her; hell the building could be falling down around me and I would still be lost in watching her.

"Jeff...! Jeff...Jeffro!?" H waved her hand in front of my face causing me to bump back in to the present and out of the fantasy I had been having since the previous morning of being with the one girl who had held my heart in her hand for the past ten years.

"Sorry I was miles away," I admitted looking at my cousin to see that Shannon had already disappeared.

"I can see that! Do you want me to stay?" H asked ever the concerned friend. I was glad that I could call her my Family, because the woman she was made me proud to not only be a part of her life but a part of her Family too.
