Matt was in the limo with Joanie, Paul, Adam, Allanah, Brian and Lillian. He really didn't want to be in there but this was the only way he was gonna get to the taping of Raw that night. There it was, in his face... love. Paul was holding Joanie. Allanah was asleep in Adam's arms and Brian was cuddling with Lillian. Matt was the only one in the only person without somebody in his arms. He looked at Brian and Lillian like he wanted to cry. Matt knew he deserved someone to love but he still didn't get it.

"I can't wait until Raw starts." Paul said.

"Why is that, sweetie?" Joanie asked.

"Tonight the McMahon-Hemsley Faction is breaking up and I don't have to feud with Dwayne anymore. We were getting sick of that. Do you know how many times we've fought each other? I told the writers we had to change the story lines... ALL the story lines because the shows were starting to get predictable to me."

"Do you still have to be with Stephanie?"

"They're still thinking about that one."

Joanie sighed. Stephanie was cool with her but she was tired of seeing Paul with her on television as her wife. Joanie wanted to marry Paul, she didn't care if it was just a story line. She didn't think it would be this long.

"Stephanie is great to work with. She's gotta be the best actress. She's sacrificed a lot by being in this angle with me. The writers are just trying to help my career, Joanie."

"I know, I know." Joanie smiled.

Joanie & Paul started kissing. Matt turned away. He couldn't stand the sight of Paul and Joanie kissing.

"Yo, Matt." Brian said.

"Yeah?"

"Did you get an invitation to Steve and Debra's wedding?"

The limo stopped. They had arrived at the arena. Matt looked Brian in his eyes.

"I couldn't give a damn." Matt said.

He got out of the car and slammed the door behind him. The last thing he wanted to see was a wedding but it was then that he decided he was gonna tell Amy how he felt about her. He was on a mission now. Adam and Lillian looked at Matt with concern in their eyes. Something was wrong with their friend and they wanted to fix it.

**Jeff was thinking about Matt that whole night at Raw. He didn't pay much attention to Trish. Matt didn't even come to their dressing room. He was looking for Matt frantically. Trish was still a little mad at Matt for slapping her man but Jeff talked her into forgiving him. Jeff ran into Amy. Amy looked at Jeff but then stared at the floor with a frown on her face. She still felt uncomfortable about having sex with Jeff.

"Uh.. Amy, have you... seen Matt?"

"Yeah. He was on the bus. He's getting dressed in Jay's room."

"Thank God. Thank you so much, Amy."

He smiled at Amy. She turned and walked away. She didn't want to be near Jeff right now even though she had to accompany him and Matt to the ring later.

**Amy was in her rental car listening to Kid Rock driving back to the hotel. She hadn't seen Matt since their match earlier. Jay said he had left early because he was sick. Jay told Amy that Matt said to come see her before the night was over. She was wondering what Matt wanted Amy for while she was driving. There was a twinkle in her eye when she thought about what it could be, she smiled to herself.


**Adam and Lillian were in Matt's room with amazement. They couldn't believe what they saw.

"Tell Brian I said I'm sorry for what I said."

"He'll be alright. I'll tell him." Lillian said.

"So you're gonna straighten this thing with Amy?" Adam asked.

"Yeah. I told Jay to tell her to stop by tonight."

"Are you still mad at Jeff?" Lillian asked.

"Yes. He hasn't come apologized to me for doing what he did. He knows I've liked Amy for a long time and he's gonna go and sleep with her. That's a bunch of bullshit and he knows it. I don't feel any regrets for slapping him. He's gotta learn to be more mature than that."

"I'm quite sure he's willing to talk about it but you aren't willing. He's tried many times to apologize but you keep walking away." Adam said.

"Well, I guess I shouldn't be doing that if he's trying to make things better. I was wrong about him. I'm the one being immature. I'll talk to him tomorrow. Now, I gotta talk to Amy and hopefully, this will help."

"If Brian wore something like that, I would melt in his arms." She said as she looked at what Matt was wearing.

"Yes, Lillian. We know you love your man." Adam smiled.

"Just like you love Allanah... let's get out of here. Amy should be here any minute. You sure you're okay, Matt?" Lillian asked.

"Yeah. Thanks for your concern, guys. I really appreciate it."

"Anytime. We love you, man." Adam messed up Matt's hair and smiled at him with his white teeth.

"You're crazy. Get out of here." Matt said.

"Bye." Lillian said.

"I hope you and Brian have another great night." Matt said.

"You know we will." Lillian smiled.

Adam and Lillian left Matt's room. Matt smiled to himself. Adam & Lillian were two of Matt's closest friends. They understood everything Matt was going through. Jay did too. He was thankful to have good friends like them. Matt fixed his hair in the mirror. He cut on the music he had just bought. It sounded very romantic, that's the way he wanted it. He cut off the lights. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

"Who is it?"

"Amy."

"Come in."

Amy took a deep breath and walked in. She gasped. The lights were off, romantic jazz music was playing and to top if off, candles were lit across the room. She looked around to see Matt. He was wearing this beautiful blue silk shirt with the buttons undone showing off Matt's chiseled and muscular chest. He was beautiful. Amy started to cry. Matt walked up to her.

"Tonight, all my dreams come true... because tonight... is my first night with you."

Matt took Amy gently in his arms and looked into her eyes. He could tell they were both finally getting what they've wanted for so long... love.
