Word count 951 short sorry
Friday Morning
We got to the small town after around 3 hours in the car. The car ride was tough for me, my mind kept thinking back to the night before.
Did Finn only kiss me to shut me up and to stop torturing myself about him and I being a thing because it wouldn't happen in this lifetime?
We all get out of the car stretching our body's that have been stuck in the same position for 3 hours.
" Alright I'm gonna head in get us checked in," Finn says. Everyone murmured an okay.
Ryan came up to bex and me, "you guys wanna come to meet some of the guys being it is your first time here" he asked us
"Sure we'd love that" Becky answers for the both of us
We head inside the gym, Ryan stops at the doorway almost looking for someone for us to meet
"Ah, there he is," Ryan says to himself, walking in a direction to the left side of the gym
"Aj, how are you man," He says hug him
"I've been having fun teaching these baby chicks of mine, how about yourself," the guy says
"I've been doing the same for myself, actually I'd like you to make two of mine," Ryan says "Aj this is Becky and Charlie are youngest and newest members of the gym"
"Hello ladies I'm Aj"
"Hey I'm Becky," Bex says holding out her hand for aj to shake "how long you been wrestling, " Becky says with her great conversational skills
"Well I'm 25 years old and I've been wrestling since I was 15 so yeah ten years, wow been that long ey" aj says
"Ryan, Becky could you both come with me for just a moment" Finn suddenly pops up and steals them away from me
Leaving me alone with aj
"You speak," he asked
"Um yeah sorry, I'm very shy guess you could say," I say looking down
"It's alright, so your Charlie right"
"Yeah the one and only," I say with a giggle
"Wow good to finally put a face to the name," he says
I look at him right away after him saying that
"what do you mean" "honey I'm Finns best friend I've known him since he was 17 wrestling from gym to gym, you think he wouldn't mention to me the young sparkle to his eyes"
"Finns called me that" I question
"He always does have something new to tell me about you when we get in the phone"
"Wow I definitely would have pictured him calling me the grey clouds in his life lately but sparkle hey" aj laughs at my joke
"He's a handful hun don't give up on him" "but anyways I got to get going he's my number if you ever just wanna text me or call me to talk about anything and everything," he says handing me a piece of paper with a smile before walking away
As soon as he walks away comes back Becky Finn and Ryan
"You'll never guess what I get to do tonight at the event," Becky says bouncing around " no what, "I say looking st Ryan and Finn for clues to know what she's so excited about
"A girl got sick that was supposed to be in another mixed tag team and they needed a mixed tag team from Finn and Finn asked me to be his partner," she says all at once
Ouch, that hurts I look to Finns face seeing if there's any apology feeling he may have, even though I'm unable to wrestle why most he choose himself to wrestle in a mixed tag team and not Ryan.
" wow I'm so happy for you," I say to her smiling "um I'm gonna go to the bathroom really quick, excuse me," I say walking out the gym finding the bathroom tears leave my eyes as soon as I leave to the gym not being able to make it to the bathroom
I'm not jealous of Becky but I am at the same time. I wish that I didn't get hurt or that I was good enough for Finn to want me. I wish that Finn just wanted me in general but he doesn't and I'll always be nothing to him but a wrestling woman that works at his gym
I walk outside and sit on the ground with my hands covering my face
I hear a door open and then shut
"You alright sparkle" I look up to see aj
"Um yeah just needed some air," I say looking away into the distance
"I got this super cool gift that allows me to tell when people are lying, and that gift is giving me all the signs that your lying," he says sitting down
I laugh "I'm mad at myself for getting hurt and not being the one who gets to be in the Mixed tag team with him" and you know I just want Finn to be proud of me and not see me as the weak girl that is a bench warmer for his team"
"Your different and I know that because your the first girl Finn has ever talked to me about since I've known him, so your no bench warmer love," aj says
"I'm so stupid I'm being mad at my best friend for getting to have an opportunity that's so good for her wrestling start, what kinda friend does that," I asked
"You a human, humans have emotions and the emotion you are feeling is jealousy, it's okay to feel jealous of her but don't let that effect on who your gonna be tomorrow," aj says
"Yeah I guess your right"
