Claudia sat in the stadium bored out of her mind. She didn't know how she could have let her friends talk her into going to a wrestling show. She hated it, it wasn't even a real sport to her.
¤¤¤ Flashback ¤¤¤
"Come on, Claudia, just come with us. It'll be fun, besides, like everyone from our old school is going to be there with us," Judi tried to convince her friend.
"You know how much I hate wrestling, why do we have to go?" Claudia reasoned.
"It's like the most interesting thing to go on here in our town like ever. Besides, we can get our minds off of work and everything like that."
"Fine, only because you are desperate."

Claudia sat quietly in her seat. Everyone around her was cheering for some wrestler by the name of The Ice. She let out another yawn and just hoped the show was going to be over soon.
Finally, the show was over and they were leaving. She didn't know what exactly it was, but Claudia's attention drew to a girl that she knew in high school. They weren't friends at all, but Karen was calling her over. Claudia told Judi and her other friends that she'd meet them later and then walked over to Karen.
"Hi, how are you?" Claudia said quietly.
"Fine…I haven't seen you in a while. Actually, I was talking to The Ice before and he asked about you," Karen explained.
Claudia gave her a questionable look. "What do you mean?"
"I don't know what he wants, but that's what he said. He just said to go to the back," Karen pointed in the direction to backstage, "and meet him. I guess I'll see you later."
"Yeah," Claudia muttered, trying to decide if she was telling the truth or not.
She decided to go quickly. It wouldn't hurt to see if it was real. Even if it wasn't real, it wouldn't matter that much since she didn't like wrestling anyway.
Making through the crowd, Claudia entered the back. She was surprised that there wasn't a guard there and she entered in the pool of fans. She waited outside, leaning against a radiator, trying not to act too obvious as a fan.
When she heard everyone screaming, he was sure that someone had exited from their locker room. She tried to see who it was, but was unable to. Claudia waited until the fans started to dissipate. A few times there, she was deciding if she should leave. She didn't know anything about wrestling and it would just be uncomfortable to talk to a wrestler, but she decided to stay at the end.
He looked very different from when he was in the ring. He had a mask on in the ring and was wearing tight and dark clothes. However, when he was signing autographs, he was wearing a white tank top, showing off his muscles. He hair was gelled back a little.
After about an hour or so, most of the fans were gone. The Ice was tired from giving out so many autographs, but his face lit up when he saw Claudia. She looked like she was lost, so he approached her.
"Hi," he said.
Claudia smiled back.
"I guess you got the message. I know that it's a little weird to be doing this, I mean, it's not something I usually do anyway. By the way, my real name is Kyle," he introduced.
"I'm Claudia," she said quietly.
"I don't want this to sound to abstract or weird or anything like that, but do you want to leave with me now?"
"I don't know."
"I won't do anything to you, trust me."
She carefully nodded and they entered his limo, which was waiting outside for him.
The driver aimlessly drove around town. Kyle didn't give him a specific location to go to. In the back, Kyle and Claudia talked about whatever went through their minds.
They didn't specifically talk about anything too intriguing, but Claudia enjoyed the conversation. She wouldn't usually get into a car with a stranger, but it was different. She was afraid of what he was like after seeing him in the ring, but the instant they met, she felt pretty comfortable.
In the ocean of thoughts, Kyle suddenly leaned for a kiss. She didn't know how to react, yet she didn't struggle to get away. They kept on kissing and soon enough, he laid on top of her in the seat.
Finally, she pulled away.
"I'm sorry," he apologized.
"Don't be," she kissed him again.
Kyle told the driver to drop them off at a motel and he pressed up the button to pull up the glass separating the front of the limo to the back.
