~Connecting to the world, this is fun. I should have gotten on twitter a while ago. Just learned that Rye Payne wears tampons, Johnny Clash doesn’t get along with well.. anyone, and Biguns is newly single. WIN! I think I’ll tweet her now. I look at my iPhone and the screen flashes with an E-Mail. Must be persian friend finder again, I’ll check it anyway~
Email From: Shelley Webber
~My heart sinks. My face turns read as a bead of sweat develops on my forehead. Shelley? Is it... Really?~
FLASHBACK: ~I stumble to the front door of my house, drop my keys. Bend down to pick them up and everything goes black~
“CHRISTIAN, What the hell are you doing out here!”
~I roll over and open my eyes, I’m on my front lawn and it’s bright outside. It must be morning. Shelley stands over me in a dress and her work bag in her arms~
Shelley: Christian, get up! I was worried, I called you a million times and no answer! I called the bar and they said you weren’t there either. I was going to come look for you but what was the point, you want to do this to yourself than you can sleep outside every night for all I care!
~Wow, she’s really mad. I stumble but get to my feet and wipe the drool off my face. I go to fall on to Shelley and she puts her hands up to stop me~
Shelley: I don’t know why I bother Christian. You are driving your life in to a downward spiral and I don’t want to be here when you crash. You need help and if you refuse it than I’m won’t be around much longer
~I try to get words out but nothing... My mind is blank and Shelley walks past me and gets in her car. I turn my head and squint in the sunlight. I see her brush away a tear from her eye as she drives away~
~I sit there with my eyes fixed on my phone. She has finally found me, I don’t know what this email could possibly say but I know that I need to be home to read it. I look around at the open Mall and put my phone in my pocket.~
“Excuse me sir can I interest you in a free massage?”
Christian Carter: I have somewhere to be....
“Sir it will only take five minutes, you look stress....”
Christian Carter: I SAID.. I have somewhere to be...
~I walk away and realize I just yelled at that poor girl who is only doing her job. The anticipation is killing me. I make it to the mall exit and throw the doors open. I walk past some teenagers smoking and rush to my car. I turn the key over but no luck~
Christian Carter: come on you piece of shit! Go!
~I try again, and again until the car finally turns. The engine starts and I peel away. My right hand grips my phone tightly, my hand sweats. Anxious to get home and read this email, I accidentally blow a red light. I turn the corner and drive like I never have before. I look at my gas tank which is bouncing back and forth. Damn 80’s car. I finally arrive home and brace myself before going in. I walk up to the front steps and turn the key in the door. I take a deep breathe before going inside~
FLASHBACK: ~The walls are dark and the room is spinning~
Christian Carter: SHELLLLLLEY!
~I stumble deeper in to the house and fall on to the kitchen floor. I pick myself up and see a huge gash on my right forearm from a plate that I smashed on the way down. I apply pressure to stop the blood which flows through my fingers. I walk in to the bed room which seems empty, just a bed and empty drawers. My life is gone, the love of my life is gone. I fucked up..
~it was that moment I realized I had fucked up my life and I needed to get it back on track. I haven’t seen or heard from Shelley since but god damn I think about her every day. I go inside the house and walk to my laptop sitting on the kitchen table. I open it and type in my password...... “Shelley”~
Christian Carter: here we go...
~As I open up yahoo email, I take another deep breath. Let’s do this~
From: Shelley Webber <michelle.webber@LIcorporate.com>
To: Christian Carter <TwiZtedChaosCC@yahoo.com>
Subject: No Subject
Body: I.. Well I’m not quite sure how to start this off but Hello Christian,
If you are reading this than I finally found your right e-mail address. I had to get it off of a wrestling booking site which I was actually surprised to see your name on. I did some research and saw that you were wrestling again. Good for you Chris. I hope that means that you are.. Better. The day I left I knew it was a mistake, you needed me Christian and I wasn’t there for you. I can forever apologize for that but it was my wrong doing and I am forever in debt to you for it.
I just wanted to wish you good luck this week because I saw you have a match with a guy who has been around a while. I know you will be a Champion again one day Chris and you will be the star you once were.
I have a weekend off from work next week and I would love to grab some coffee and talk to you Chris. My number is 516-555-5241. Good Luck Chris and I hope you call
Shelley
~I rub my beard and hold my head after taking in what I just read. She makes it seem so easy to forget after all this time. I should call her.....~
“LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH! EVERYTIME I DO IT MAKES ME LAUGH!”
~My ringtone goes off as I glance over at my phone quickly. It says “Jake Cage” on it. I hit ignore and continue to stare back at the email. I pick my phone up and dial the number. I hesitate before pressing send. I do it~
Ring..
Ring..
Ring..
“Hello?”
Christian Carter: Hi uh.. Shelley?
“... Christian?”
Christian Carter: Yes......
~I hear her sniffling and possibly crying~
“Christian, it’s actually you. I didn’t think you would call. How are you, how is life, how is..”
Christian Carter: Shelley... Im fine im fine. You say you are off next week? I think we should meet up.
“Okay great. I’ll text you when I know for sure what time and all. Christian, thanks for calling”
Christian Carter: I’ll talk to you soon Shelley.
~We both pause and I can hear her breathe. Finally she hangs up. I lower the phone slowly and hang up as well. My phone goes off, could it be her soo soon? No of course not its a tweet from Jake.~
@realfndeal
@twistedchaosmpw damn well hey man.....Jamal dropped me off at Applebee's half price apps up in here. Ian is showing me our table come join!
Christian Carter: Hmm... Applebees?
“@realfndealmpw alright I'm in my way can go for some buffalo wings. Try not to spill your drink butter fingers.”
~I pick up my keys and I walk towards the door. I head to my car and do the same ring a round with the engine. When it kicks on I start my journey to applebees. I crank up the radio and try to get a channel. This thing only has AM so sports radio66 it is.~
Caller: You know something, MPW is really looking up. These step up guys are the future of this company. I know some people say the product is lame but we will see how lame it is once it merges in to Thursday Night Takedown and the competition heats up!
Host: Are you a fan of other promotions as well?
Caller: I love wrestling of all shapes and sizes from Mexico to Japan to even the indy feds here in the states. Not as much Canada though.. Ughh
Host: Well thank you for calling in. We are talking Pro wrestling and MPW right now, call in and voice your opinions.
~Hmm... I get a smirk on my face and I start dialing~
“thank you for calling Sports Radio 66, this is Haley speaking can I have your name please?”
Christian Carter: Christian Carter, MPW wrestler
“Oh! Can we verify that?”
Christian Carter: don’t you have caller ID?
“... Right. I will put you through to Ken Jenkins Mr. Carter”
Ken Jenkins: Christian Carter? Is this THEE Christian Carter?
Christian Carter: You are damn right it is!
Ken Jenkins: We didn’t know you listened to the show Christian, it’s great to have you on! I supposed you heard our last caller talk about Step Up and MPW. It’s great to have a professional in here to talk some more. Tell us about your journey and how you landed in MPW
Christian Carter: Well I think you all know my story and I am not one to reiterate but I saw an ad for MPW’s training facility and I figured it was time to get my head back in the game and start fresh.
Ken Jenkins: Now tell us about your opponent this week, Apostle Kried. Do you know anything about him?
Christian Carter: I know he has been around a long time and I know he knows what he is doing in there. That guy is a world class athlete and a major name in the business. I won’t lie and say im one hundred percent ready. You can never be ready for a guy like Kried you can only get in there and do your best.
Ken Jenkins: Christian I must say you sound very professional and I am happy you got ... “better” and I apologize for bringing it up but your future looks bright as hell and I feel that you have a world championship in your future once again.
Christian Carter: I appreciate that Ken. And for all the listeners out there, never give up. I’m living proof that you can overcome the odds and get back on your feet no matter what!
Ken Jenkins: You heard it folks, Christian Carter of MPW’s Step Up and future TNT. Christian we wish you the best this week against Kried and we hope to see you with some gold around your waste shortly!
Christian Carter: Thanks Ken! Have a good night.
~I put down my phone as I pull in to the parking lot of Applebees. I turn the engine off and I go to step out.~
Jake Cage: CHRIS!! START THE CAR!!
Christian Carter: What? Why…..Ah man what did you…..
Husband: Look he has a friend!! Get him!!!
Christian Carter: Ah crap all I wanted was buffalo wings!
Jake Cage: Open the door man!
~This is going to be a very interesting night~
