CHAPTER 16
TAYLOR POV:
The next day I sat scrolling through Google images, just looking at how stunningly pretty Seth's fiancé Leighla Shultz looked. And even though I promised myself I wouldn't get jealous, that's exactly what I was becoming the more I looked at her. I hated her because I wanted to be her. I wanted what she had, and I wanted it whole heartedly. Yet at the same time I didn't hate her, not at all. I had no reason to. She was stunningly beautiful, had an amazing body, and appeared to be very nice and down to earth. She was your all-round American girl, who was just lucky enough to be the fiancé of a man idolized by millions across the globe. Yet it was that same man who was messaging me every night, telling me how much he liked me, despite the fact that he had a seemingly perfect life, and such a beautiful fiancé on his arm.
I felt bad because if I should hate anyone right now, it should be me for messing around with a near married man. And Seth should feel ashamed too for cheating behind his fiancés back. We were both guilty, but we both couldn't ignore the burning desire we had for each other that was making us do very dangerous things, and I guess like Seth...the excitement of it all made it worth the risk.
I knew he was probably with her last night, I mean why wouldn't he be, she's his fiancée right? I sighed and closed Google images...no point in torturing yourself anymore Taylor, instead you need to distract yourself from becoming depressed. Just then my cell rang...
''Hey Court''
''Giirrirl where you been? I been messaging you, face-booking you, I even left you messages on your WhatsApp...you been avoiding me?'' she moaned.
''No girl'' I chuckled ''...just been busy with my dad is all''
''Mmm hmmmm'' she laughed ''...something's up, I just know it'' she said.
It really was amazing how well my best friend knew me, but I was in no mood to spill my guts to her right now, so we just chatted about the usual girlie stuff until it was time for me to go down for dinner.
''...ok girl, but you call me if you wanna talk ok, I'm always here for you boo boo''
''I will, and thanks Court''
''Anytime''
I closed the phone and saw I had a message from my Twitter DM box. It was Seth...
''Hey gorgeous, I haven't stopped thinking about you all day 😩. I will message you later ok, but in the meantime, I thought you might want to rock out to one of my favourite hits... (LINK) {songs...https://youtu.be/U8iEFZzNTnA} I hope you enjoy babe...😉
I sighed, then clicked on the link that Seth had sent me...as soon as the song started playing a cheeky grin crept across my face. It was hot! And I loved it! I immediately took my hair out from my ponytail, cranked up the volume, and began dancing round my room like a teenager at a concert.
When the song was done, I flopped down on the bed with my arms stretched out, panting slightly from all my crazy dance moves and I began thinking of him...he was out of this world! Everything about him was so cool, so wild...and so very very sexy. I decided right there and then that I wasn't going to let my petty jealousy ruin the excitement I was having with him, because I wanted this feeling to last forever!
*****
TWO WEEKS had passed, and things between Seth and I were going from strength to strength. We never went down that road again of sexting like we did that night, but in a weird way, something much better came out of it...we had actually become friends, like real friends. He was talking to me so openly about all kinds of things, and telling me personal stuff about him that he'd never told anyone else before, and it made me feel incredibly warm inside that he felt so comfortable to confide in me the way he did.
It was also coming close to this year's Wrestlemania, and I was extremely excited because it was actually the very first Wrestlemania I was going to watch! I'd only become a WWE fan from about August of last year, so I couldn't wait to see how much bigger the show could actually get on what they called 'The Grandest Stage Of Them All'
Courtney had invited me to come watch the show with her and her family at her house, and boy I couldn't wait! Her mom made the best barbeque chicken, and they'd always spoil me rotten whenever I was around.
I though back to my own mom, and how lonely she must be at home all by herself while I was on Spring Break vacation. It made me sad every time I thought about it, but Seth had told me that I should maybe sit down and have a real 'heart to heart' with her one day, that maybe the outcome of it might surprise us both for the good. I knew he was right. I'd been avoiding so many things when it came to my mother because I didn't want to discuss, or bring up the past for fear of hurting her, but I knew 'the talk' was way past its due date. I thanked Seth for giving me the boost of confidence I needed to do it.
ONE DAY BEFORE WRESTLEMANIA XXXII...
''So, you gonna watch 'The Hall of Fame' later tonight girl?''
''I dunno Court, isn't it just a bunch of old guys who I don't really know getting inducted or something? I think it'll be kinda boring. Plus I don't think Seth will be the-''
''Are you kidding me! Girl you HAVE to watch it, for the 'Red Carpet' event alone!'' Courtney shrieked through the phone as we Facetimed.
''What 'Red Carpet' event?''
''I thought I told you...the red carpet event that happens before The Hall of Fame starts. It's a chance to see all the wrestlers in their own clothes walking down the red carpet, as they prepare to watch the Hall of Fame ceremony....they also come with their real life spouses, and I always check out what Galina looks like, mainly to see if she's put on any weight, or if her dress looks ugly this year, ha ha'' she laughed.
''Oh my God Court, you really are a biatch sometimes'' I teased.
''I know, but you still love me boo'' she laughed back.
I laughed along with her, but all I could think about was the pang in my stomach over possibly seeing Leighla on Seth's arm as they walked the red carpet together...
''Girl you listening to me! Or is your head in the clouds over Seth again?''
''Hh, what? No, I'm totally listening girl'' I stuttered, but my mind was somewhere else, and that jealousy I had been avoiding suddenly hit me like a ton of freakin' bricks!
''Mmm hmm'' she chuckled ''...girl you could just do what I do, and check out how ugly her dress is or something'' she laughed.
''Oh yeah, I'm with you on that one'' I giggled, trying to conceal my irritation.
''Good! I'll Facetime you later during the show, and we can have a good chuckle ok Tay Tay''
''Ok girl, talk to you soon, love you, bye''
''Love you too boo boo, bye''
I closed the phone and took a deep breath...should I torture myself and watch the show? Yes, why not Taylor, you can do it. Come on your friends with him now, so this shouldn't affect anything right?
Boy how wrong was I...
