Gotta find a way
Yeah I can't wait another day
Ain't nothin' gonna change
if we stay 'round here

Gotta do what it takes
Cuz it's all in our hands
We all make mistakes
Yeah, but it's never too late
To start again, take another breath
and say another prayer

And fly away from here
Anywhere, yeah I don't care
We'll just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams
Are out there somewhere

Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly

If this life gets any harder now
It ain't, no, never mind
You got me by your side
And any time you want
Yeah we can catch a train and
Find a better place
Yeah, cuz we won't let nothin'
Or no one keep gettin' us down
Maybe you and I
Can pack our bags and hit the sky

And fly away from here
Anywhere yeah I don't care
We just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere

Won't let time pass us by
We'll just fly

Do you see a bluer sky now
You can have a better life now
Open your eyes

Cuz no one here can ever stop us
They can try but we won't let them
No way

Maybe you and I
Can pack our bags and say goodbye

And fly away from here
Anywhere, honey I don't care
We'll just fly away from here
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere
Fly away from here
Yeah anywhere honey
I don't I don't I don't care

We'll just fly

Kurt Angle sat back on the passenger side of the car with his eyes closed and a content smile on his face.
The driver looked over to him and studied his face for a moment, he turned his attentions back to the road. The weather was mild ,and the skies were blue. The scenery flew by their car leaving the old life behind leading them on an uncertain path to the future. The path they knew was the cirrect choice.
Kurt opened his eyes smiled at his love  he reached forward and turned the radio on lowly, the sounds of Aerosmithh filled the car, he leant back and listened to the words floating to his ears.
�mmmm�this is loevly� said Kurt quietly �no regrets Chris?� he asked
�No, no regrets Kurt. I love you�
Kurt leant back and closed his eyes �I love you too� hr drifted off into an easy sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kurt watched him move around the ring. His body was so graceful, beautiful, it was perfect and Kurt wanted it.
The match ended and Kurt moved away from the backstage area, where he was watching the match on a monitor.
He watched as Chris came into the back with chris Jericho, he watched him move about effortlesly, shaking Jericho�s hand in congratulations. They went their separate ways and Chris started talking to a crew member. Kurt wanted to knoww hat he was ttalking about, he wished he coul dbe at least that intimate with the man.  He didn�t trust himself. So he tried to stay away from him most of the time. Chris caught his eye and smiled at him, Kurt looked down feeling awkward at being caught staring at him.
Chris dismissed the stage crew and made his way over to Kurt. Kurt looked up and saw him walking towards him. He wanted to go. He wanted to hide, he had done that so much lately, it was easier that way. He couldn�t very well leave now, Chris had seen him.
He watched as the man walked towards him. His knees would buckle if he didn�t stop staring at Chris� chest. Why did he have to wrestle shirtless? Kurt looked down again, not trusting his body.

�What�s so interesting Kurt?� asked Chris joking
�Hmmm?� Kurt�s head snapped up, how did he get over here so quickly? Chris chuckled at Kurt�s mild surprise.
�I was just asking what was so fascinating about the concrete on the floor�
�Oh, umm� Kurt avoided Chris� gaze and remained silent. Chris regarded Kurt for a moment and spoke again
�I saw you� Kurt didn�t say anything so Chris continued �I saw you looking at me�
Kurt looked down again �Now then Kurt, I know I�m not the most interesting person in the world, but surely I�m more interesting than the floor�
Kurt smiled at Chris� comment. �No, it�s just that-� Kurt stopped what he was saying
�What?� asked Chris in confusion, he followed Kurt�s eyes to see what he was looking at.
�I, er, have to go Chris nice talking to you� said Kurt quietly and left.
Chris watched him walk up to Hunter who appeared to ask him something, he saw Kurt shake his head and Hunter looked over towards him and frowned, Hunter said something else to Kurt and lead him away.
Chris didn�t know what to make of the situation, he wasn�t sure what was going on with Hunter and Kurt, he knew something was up, but he didn�t know what. He was broken from his thoughts by Chris Jericho
�Hey Benoit! Wake up, we gotta get going!� Jericho called cheerily. Chris smiled and walked over to his friend.

Chris didn�t talk to Kurt again for the next couple of weeks, he�d see Kurt about, but Kurt seemed to be avoiding him. Chris made a resolution to go and speak to the intriguing character known as Kurt Angle. He would just have to wait for Hunter to be out of the way first.

Chris� opportunity came a few days later,. Hunter was off doing a promotion for the WWF, he wouldn�t be travelling for five days. Chris took the opportunity to find out a bit more about Kurt.
Chris wandered round the backstage area of the arena looking for Kurt, he stopped to ask somebody, but saw him walking away from him, Chris dismissed the stage-hand and walked quickly to catch up with Kurt.
�Kurt!� Chris called �Wait up�

Kurt stopped in his tracks and turned around to the source of the noise. He looked midly surprised, but that quickly turned into a look a mild alarm, he looked around to see if anyone was about. The two men were
alone. He looked at Chris and remained silent.
�Kurt, can we talk?� Chris asked him
Kurt was unsure, what if he was seen talking o Chris?
�It�s OK� said Chris �He isn�t here, he won�t know�
How did Chris know about Hunter? He looked down again and said quietly �Fine, but not here� he turned towards the canteen area and gestured for Chris to follow him.

Kurt sat down and looked at Chris.
�You wanted to talk. Talk� said Kurt, he was looking around nervously.
�Kurt, why are you so jumpy, he�s not here� Kurt looked towards Chris for the first time. He looked into Chris� eyes and spoke sadly
�You don�t know what he�s like�
Chris was taken aback he hadn�t expected this, he wasn�t sure what he expected, but this wasn�t it.
�What do you mean?� he asked kindly. Kurt though decided it was time to be quiet again. Chris carried on speaking.
�You shouldn�t let him treat you like this, he shouldn�t be controlling you like this. Look at you, you�re acting as if he�ll walk through the door at any minute.� Said Chris, the words came out more harshly than he expected. Kurt looked shocked, he stood up �you don�t understand� he said quietly �goodbye Chris� Kurt looked at Chris a moment longer and walked away.
Chris thought it best not to create a scene, he waited a while and left to find Kurt again.
He found him in the locker room sitting by himself, he stood at the door way and watched Kurt sigh and elan down to his bag.
Chris walked over to Kurt and sat down next to him
�I want to understand Kurt�
Kurt stopped what he was doing at sat back up. He turned to look at Chris and quickly averted his gaze.
�No you don�t.� he said and stood up and walked away from Chris.
�Yes I do� implored Chris.
Kurt couldn�t believe what he was hearing. He didn�t want to believe it, it couldn�t be true. He remained looking away from Chris, he didn�t trust himself.  He felt a hand on his arm, he looked at the hand and turned around to find himself looking at Chris� arm.
�Kurt, I want to understand. I want you to be happy. You�re not happy with Hunter�
�Yes I am� said Kurt quickly
�Look at me and tell me that� said Chris, Kurt continued to stare at Chris� arm. He knew he couldn�t do that. But he knew he couldn�t deny it, Hunter would kill him if told anyone any different.
When Kurt didn�t move Chris raised his free hand and lifted Kurt�s face up to look at him. He was greeted with the sad tear filled eyes of Kurt, he acted on impulse and embraced Kurt in a tight hug. He wrapped his arms around Kurt tightly
�Kurt, it�s OK� he soothed, he rubbed a hand down Kurt�s back.
Kurt stood there frozen, what would Hunter think if he saw this? He couldn�t do this. He listened to Chris� words. His voice calmed him, he felt protected in this man�s embrace. He slowly wrapped his arms around Chris and buried his face in Chris� shoulder.
Chris continued to rub Kurt�s back and carried his soothing words. He felt Kurt begin to cry and moved his hand up and stroked Kurt�s smooth hair. Kurt finally stopped crying and pulled away from Chris.
�I�m sorry� he said quietly
�What for� asked Chris
�For being weak� Kurt said quietly
�You weren�t being weak Kurt�
�Yes I was� argued Kurt �I have to go� he said quickly and he left, he walked away from Chris again. Chris was in shock, he didn�t know what to do. Kurt stopped when he got to the door and turned and looked back at Chris. He smiled sadly and left.
