Am I More Than You Bargained For Yet?

Chapter 4

Chris took a large sip of his water. He and Alex, along with Petey and Jay had been going over their match for a few hours, getting everything perfect.

"You guys flying home tonight?" Alex asked Jay, slapping his back. "Nah, I'm driving back to my parents place for the week before coming back for tapings." Petey jumped out of the ring, running over to the taller guys to go back to the locker room.

"Fuck man, It's really cold in here." Petey said, pushing the locker room door open. All men laughed, seeing Joe asleep on the couch with Chris's PSP laying on his stomach.

"Joey!" Alex screamed in the larger mans ear, ruffing up his hair. Joe slapped his hands away groaning, before opening his eyes. "Whoa, where the fuck am I?" Chris laughed. "Locker room big fella."

Joe stood up, rubbing his eyes. "Shit, is it really cold in here or is it just me?" "That's what I said!" Petey yelled from the showers.

"I'll be back in a sec, Kirst called." Alex grinned, walking out of the room with his phone in hand. Joe chuckled, "How's stuff with you and Avvvvaaaa." He grinned, batting his eyelashes as Chris.

The motor city machine gun laughed, shaking his head. "Nothing. I've decided to sit this one out." The room froze. "Sit this one out?" Petey laughed, coming out of the shower with a towel around his waist. Chris sat down on a bench, propping up his feet on his luggage.

"I mean. After all the stuff with you know who I should probably lay low for a while." Alex came back into the room laughing. "What?" Chris asked him, eyebrow raised. "Told you guys he couldn't have emotionless sex..." Chris groaned, throwing his wrestling boot toward his partner.

"I got in enough shit for Taylor from Dixie, I don't need it again alright." "What he really means is he knows she'd reject him. Hard." the room laughed as Chris stood and grabbed his bags.

"Fuck you clowns, I've got a plane back home to catch. Call your own taxi, Patrick." Chris smiled smugly, before the door was thrown open to reveal a very panicked Eric Young.

"EY, what's wrong?"
EY panted, clutching his chest. "Snowing."

The guys looked around, thinking EY had finally gone insane.
Forecast for today wasn't the warmest but definitely not snowing.

Joe stood, taking a few strides out of the room. A few moments later Joe walked back in. "Uh. I guess there isn't gonna be any flights out tonight. It's snowing pretty bad out there."

Chris groaned, could this week get any worse?
He sat back down. "It's cool guys, we can drive back to mine and sleep it off. It's only like 20 from here." Joe smiled like he was captain-save-the-day. "Where's your car at?" Alex asked.

"Oh."
"Oh what?"
"Sonjay."
"Where's sonjay."
"Doing Val at a motel."
"Oh, Jesus Chr-"

There was a slight knock on the door. Joe turned, opening it back up. "Oh! Hey Ava!" Joe grinned, hugging the small girl as she smiled. "Just came to drop this off to EY." EY smiled, it was his contract renewal, he couldn't help but hug her.

"Alright, I'll see you guys in a few weeks." She smiled, waving before walking out the door. "Ava, wait!" Joe yelled, walking out after her. He returned seconds later with a sly smile on his face.

"Joe. What did you do, you sly dog." Alex grinned, already catching on.
"Oh Nothing. We're just gonna meet Ava at her car. She'll drive us back to mine for the night."

"What was that, Sabintron?" Petey asked.
"I didn't say anything." Sabin spoke.
"Oh really? I thought I heard you yell shotgun." Shelley grinned.
Chris groaned, rolling his eyes. He should have never said anything about not getting with Ava, because now all they were going to talk about was him getting with her.

Chris sighed. It was going to be a long, long night.
Before they knew it, they were all in Ava's four wheel drive. Shivering from cold and talking amongst themselves.

Chris was trying to keep his mouth shut, looking out the window as Brody drove silently, ignoring all the chaos in the back of her car.

He stole a glance at her, she was staring head on and seemed not to be bothered by the cold in her T-shirt and jeans. He caught sight of something on her arm, a tattoo.

"Holy shit." He laughed to himself, even though she could hear him.
"What, holy shit?" She asked, sounding less than friendly. She wanted him and he was ignoring her and she didn't like it.

"Your uh. Arm. 'It all comes back to you, you're going to get what you deserve. try and test that, you're bound to get served.' That's Sublime right? They're pretty much my favorite band."

Ava smiled. "Well then, not just a pretty face you are."
Chris felt something weird, heat in his face. Holy shit. Was he blushing?

Ava lent forward and squinted, trying hard to see through the snow. "This is it right Joe?" "Sure is." He smiled.

"What are you doing now, Ava?" Sonjay asked, squished between Lethal and Petey. "I gotta head back, I have a real job." Brody smiled into the rear view mirror. "You know you can come up for a drink if you want to, drive back when the snow lays off..." Joe spoke. Brody sighed, shaking her head. "I've been working here two weeks and I'm already behind Joel." He nodded, patting her head. "Alright."

Joe got out of the car, followed by Alex, who was followed by Lethal, Sonjay, Petey, and EY. Chris cleared his throat, still sitting in the passenger seat. "You know. You should come up.. It's bad out here and..." He turned to look at her. She was doing this thing where she bit her lip and she smiled a little.

"Please. Come up and just have one drink..." She grinned, turning off the car. "Okay. One drink."
