| ~ Chapter Eight ~ |
| After spending most of the day touring Cameron, Jeff and Ryann met Matt and his friend Lexi at Matt�s house. Lexi was a petite woman, with long blonde hair and green eyes. She had a great tan. Matt decided he was driving, so they piled into his vehicle and drove an hour to Raleigh. They stopped at a club called Gillian�s. Matt and Jeff paid for themselves and the girls, and they all went inside. Jeff and Matt went to the bar to order drinks, and the girls headed for the bathroom. �So Lexi, what do you think of Matt?� Ryann asked. �I think he�s great! I mean, we haven�t known each other for very long, but I really like him. So you and Jeff are dating? I thought Matt had told me he was single.� �Jeff and I are just friends. I actually only met Matt and Jeff a few days ago, at the season finale of Tough Enough 3.� �Oh.� �Jeff was kind enough to let me stay with him until I find an apartment, because I am going to start more training this week here in Raleigh.� �I thought you looked familiar. I remember seeing you on Tough Enough.� �Well, they are going to think we got lost if we don�t go back out there.� The girls went over to the bar, and Matt and Jeff bought them drinks. They all sat at a table and were chillin�, when �Emotion� by Destiny�s Child started playing. Matt asked Lexi to dance, and they went out onto the dance floor. Jeff looked at Ryann, who was looking at the dance floor. �Ryann,� he said. �Do you want to dance with me?� �Sure.� She replied. He put out his hand and she put her hand in his. They walked out onto the dance floor. Jeff pulled Ryann into his arms and they started to dance. Ryann had butterflies in her stomach again, as she just couldn�t believe that she was dancing with Jeff. She couldn�t stop thinking about him, and how she wanted to be so close to him. �Jeff and I are just friends.� She kept telling herself. But in her mind she envisioned the two of them together, in love. After a couple of tries, Jeff snapped her out of her trance. �Ryann� Ryann� �Yeah?" She finally replied. �Where�d you go?� �I�m sorry Jeff, I was thinking.� �About what?� �Just stuff. So you dance pretty well.� Ryann stated, quickly changing the subject. �I know�� Jeff bragged, jokingly. �So anyway, Al called me on my cell while you and Lexi were in the ladies room.� �What did he say?� �He just wanted me to tell you that you have to be at Raw on Monday.� �I have to be at Raw? Why?� �I am not sure, but I relayed the message, so my work is done.� Jeff said, and then he chuckled. �Why did he call your cell phone and tell you?� �I told him you were staying with me, and Matt and I are going to be your trainers. We�ll be training Brady too. I guess he just figured that I could relay the message.� �Fine by me! I am going to Raw� I am so excited!� �I know exactly how you�re feeling, I was the same way when Matt and I first made it. So if you want, we can travel together.� �I would like that, Jeff. Thanks.� �It�s always my pleasure, Ryann.� The song ended and they went back to their table. They danced most of the night away, until they decided to head home at 2:30 in the morning. They arrived back in Cameron around 3:30. Matt dropped Jeff and Ryann off at his house, then left to bring Lexi home. Jeff and Ryann got into Jeff�s car and went home. |
