Mine For A Moment

Don't Rush

Two days later
Amber POV

Sitting in the hotel room I was desperately trying to come up with some sort of plan for me to get back into training without hurting my back.

The main problem was taking bumps the majority of which require you to land on your back, also having a highflyer style alot of my moves also resulted in me landing on my back.

Randy had gone to the arena to prepare for Raw that night and I had been left here alone. After over a week of not working out or training had I become frustrated and more than anything I wanted to get back in the ring and if I could get back there faster it was a bonus.

Randy and I were getting back to normal slowly, the investigation had come to a close and Jess was now languishing in a jail cell somewhere never to see the light of day again.

Out of sheer frustration at my inability to come up with a plan I decide to go to the PC and just try everything and see whats comfortable and whats not.
When I arrive there it's empty, I get changed and then get into one of the rings.

One of the first things I decide to try is taking a bump on my back, as soon as I land I instantly regret it.

"Ah fuck that was not a good idea" I say to myself as I lay on the mat wincing in pain.

"What in the world are you doing?" A voice asks and I turn to see Shawn standing by the ring

"Shawn? What are you doing here?" I ask sitting up slowly

"I'm one of the trainers here, now what are you doing?" He asks

"Trying to find a way to get back in the ring faster" I sigh

"Well first never rush your recovery" he says "and second never try to take a bump on your back when your back is messed up"

"I know I know" I say frustrated "I'm bored and I just want to get back in the ring"

"Ok when you take a bump try landing on your hip instead of your back" he suggests

"My hip?" I ask looking confused

"Yeah Ric Flair does it all the time" he says "he broke his back in a plane accident and ever since then he lands on his hip rather then his back"

"Ok I'll try that" I say standing up and doing exactly what he says surprisingly it does hurt as much as I thought it would and it barely bothers my back at all

"Good now what moves do you use?" He asks

"Pretty much Jeff's moves" I say "but my version of them"

"Great and entire move set that requires you to arch or twist your back in some way" he sighs "that's not going  to be difficult at all"

"Maybe I could learn some new moves change my style temporarily?" I suggest

"How long before your clear to compete?" He asks

"A week?" I say and he shakes his head

"Not enough time for you to learn a new move set" he says "we'll just have to start with you less twisty moves and work from there"

"Wait a minute we?" I ask "as in you and me?"

"Well yeah, that is if you want my help?" He asks

"Yes of course I'd love your help, thank you" I smile

"Ok some ground rules, you do as I say and if I tell you to stop you stop" he says "we only work on what it doesn't hurt you to do, everything else waits until your healed"

"Agreed" I say

"Ok let's get started" he says clapping his hands together

Randy POV

The whole time I was at the arena my mind was on Amber, the last couple of days she had been getting frustrated about getting back in the ring.
I had taken her to the gym and we had found a way for her to work out comfortably but she wanted to train which I didn't think was a good idea.

When I had left this morning she was trying to come up with a training plan but I still wasn't sure it was a good idea.
As I drive back to the hotel I pass by the PC and notice straight away that her car is parked outside.

Pulling off the road and parking up along side it, I head inside to find out what she's doing, as if I didn't know.

I find her training with Shawn helping her, I watch as she takes bumps landing on her hip and does some of her basic moves, on a coupe of occasions I notice a slight grimace on her face but other than she she seems to be doing OK.

"Looking good baby" I call out as I walk over to them

"Thanks" she smiles "I feel good"

"How's she doing?" I ask Shawn as I stand beside him

"Not bad" he says "she can do her baisc stuff but her more twisty moves are going to have to wait she's still too sore to do them properly, as she found out earlier"

"What did she do?" I ask

"Took a bump flat on her back" he sighs "ended up laying in the ring in pain, unfortunately I came in after she had done it or I would have stopped her"

"You know I'm right here and I can hear you" she says leaning over the ropes

"Oh I know but he'll tell me the truth" I say

"And you think I won't?" She asks looking annoyed

"Well let's see, who told me this morning that her back was almost pain free?" I ask "the same person who is far too sore to do her main moves properly"

"Ok so I embellished the truth a little" she shrugs

"A little" I laugh "more than a little"

"Look" she says climbing out of the ring and wrapping her arms around my neck "I just want to get back to work, I'm bored"

"I know and I just want you to be careful becuase I love you" I say

"I know you do" she says "and I will be I promise, beside Shawn will make sure I am"

"Yes I will"  Shawn say "now get back in that ring you're not done"

Amber smiles at me and gives me a quick kiss "I love you" she says before getting back in the ring and continuing her training with both me and Shawn watching her.
