Karissa and I are in our own rooms, finishing up with everything and getting our stuff together for the show tonight, since we are competing. After making sure we have everything, we leave and head down to our cars, heading to the arena. We meet up at the doors. 

"Hey."

"Heyy." I greet back. 

"How was your day?"

"Pretty good...you know typical busy day at the gym and all that, getting ready for the show tonight."

"Yeah. Some media stuff. Just our average day."

"Three hour show tonight. Gonna be a long night."

"Yup."

Then we get to the locker room we share and drop our things off so we can change later. We come out and pause. 

"So what do you want to do until the show?"

"Um....catering is always an option. We got a good what....20 minutes to waste before the show?"

"Yeah."

"Catering it is then."

We start walking towards catering, talking. When we get there, it's not really all that crowded, just a few people here and there.

"Yeah well that's 'cause it's close to showtime."

"True."

"By the way, love your necklace it's so cute." Karissa says, noticing the fish necklace I'm wearing.

"Is it from you know who?" She adds curiously.

"Yeah....that way it's not suspicious you know? If I wore anything else that had reference to him, people would start being suspicious. No one knows about us...besides you....because I can trust you."

"Of course you can." She nods. 

"Do you know how hard it is to sneak around backstage without HER or anyone else finding out?"

"I believe it. I don't think I could do it."

"And then when we're around HER or anyone else for that matter, we have to act like we're just friends. She gets all pissy and jealous about it."

"Right."

"It's quite funny actually."

"I know." Karissa laughs. 

"And she thinks that kissing him in front of me bothers me? Um no."

"Because he doesn't mean them."

"Exactly...plus, he says she kisses horribly anyway."

Karissa can't help but laugh. Then my phone buzzes signaling a text.

"And the texts begin." I say, as I read and reply back to him.

"Ooooh." Karissa giggles. 

"Yup, this will be going all night up until we sneak around, then the rest of the night after that."

"I've noticed."

"What about you and Justin? Have you talked lately?"

"We talked a bit this morning." She says with a small sigh. 

"When are you gonna see him again? I can tell you miss him."

"I don't know."

"I haven't really seen him since NXT ended." She adds. 

"It sucks." She sighs. 

"I know."

"I miss him so much."
