• Sitting, Waiting... •[/color][/size] -----------------------------------------
As a recently unemployed independent wrestler, Tyler Gates seems to have found himself with more freetime than any twenty something kid should. I guess calling your boss a dick is more frowned upon than television would make one believe. Down and Out is not really in Tyler's vocabulary as he always finds something to occupy his time whether it's a good thing or bad thing is up for interpretation.
We find a very bored Tyler awaiting his contract application to be called on. He is sitting in a hotel bar, harassaing a bartender on if redheads or brunettes are crazier. Tyler shrugges his shoulders and says, "that the believes all woman are bipolar but what can ya do."
As time passes Tyler hopes that more people with personality will come join him. New Years Eve Day and not a single fun person is out drinking this early in the morning, such a waste of a good day.

A young blonde, enters the hotel bar. She looks around and sees the bar is mostly empty, sees someone who looks to be her age. She goes up to the bar smiles at the bartender and sits about two stools down from the young man.
She looks to him, "What's a guy like you doing in a place like this?"
She smiles politely and goes to extend her hand. "I'm Heather...Heather Helmsley."
She sits there awaiting an answer from him.

Tyler finishes take a drink of his beer and glances over at the blonde and then down at her hand. He lets out a smile as he reaches over and gently shakes her hand.

She takes a look at the surroundings, most of the people there are middle-aged and older. He doesn't look very old...
"Take a look around," She giggles. "Everyone else here is, well, old. And it's an expression, a lot of people say it. Doesn't necessarily mean anything...well not me me anyway. Don't get all defensive on me. "
She looks around again feeling pretty awkward, and embarassed she didn't mean to offend him.

Tyler Gates [/b] "Maybe I just look good for my age."[/size] -----------------------------------------
He let out a half-assed grin knowing full well they both knew he wasn't serious.-----------------------------------------[/color] Tyler Gates[/b] "This is just me pre gaming for tonight, and, well I am still waiting to see if I got this job. Either way, I am going to to end this year with a bang! What about you miss? You don't even look old enough to drink."[/size] [/center] |

She laughs realizing he wasn't completely offended.
"I am actually waiting on a job too..I'm 22, barely old enough to drink. I am hoping to end the year with a new job..not really caring about the 'bang' part that you speak of. I don't really drink..Don't know why I came in here, I am staying here until I get the news."

Tyler Gates [/b] "That's exactly why I am here, when I got here they had this little fucker who was nice enough to "lend" me his company credit card. So I am having a few complimentary drinks while I wait for their reply. With that said, could I... erm the company offer you a drink?"[/size] -----------------------------------------
He pulled out the card and flashed it with a michevious grin on his face.-----------------------------------------[/color] Tyler Gates[/b] "After all, it is the end of the year."[/size] [/center] |

"That's quite alright." She laughs, and flashes him her Black Card. "I can get my own thank you though. Save that company card for yourself, but I am definitely flattered by the offer."
She scoots a couple stools down and sits closer to him.
"So Tyler...What company or job did you apply for?" She asks.

He pointed to his glass to show the bartender that he was wanting another.
----------------------------------------- [/color] Tyler Gates[/b] "I applied to wrestle for EHWF, I been wrestling since I was in high school. And I've done some cheap ass jobs but kind of told my last boss to suck me and it didn't go over so well. What job brings you?"[/size] [/center] |

"Well it looks like we may be seeing a lot more of each other." She says with a smile. "I also applied to wrestle at EHWF. I was born into a wrestling family...according to some it is the family business. I love to wrestle...just hate the family part of it."
She shrugs and asks the bartender for a soda.
"So you know anything about this federation? I got a call from one of their divas, Madison, she's a friend of mine. Other than that they needed more athletes in their women's division..I don't know much."

Tyler Gates
[/b] "To be honest, I don't really know all that much about it. I was just browsing some wrestling brands and companies. I also considered trying out for more brawler, fighting style. But wrestling has been important to me."[/size] -----------------------------------------
He shurgged his shoulders as if it wasn't that important to him when in actuality it meant more than he'd let on. He had just met her and decided he wasn't into devulging too much information.-----------------------------------------[/color] Tyler Gates[/b] "Well it'll be interesting to see you in the ring, if you get hired on I'll have to check it out. So did they let you know about when they would get back to you?"[/size] [/center] |

"Nope," She sighed. "Maddie said it could be a few days. It's already been one day for me. So I am hoping soon. You know, I haven't had much luck with past federations either. One, the co owners hated me so much that they kept bringing in more women, just to demolish me. If I'm ever seen on their premises I am to be 'banned on sight' and the last one I called the owner a bitchy slut...and well that didn't go over well..."
She giggled a bit.
"I know what you're thinking. She's too darn nice and sweet for that...Don't think that. I'm not really that nice."

"Stick around long enough, you'll see the bengal tiger in me come out. I am sure. My temper is genetic." She laughs.
She's really enjoying talking to him, the first person she's met in months, no years that hadn't immediately jumped on her last name and totally marked out.

"You know Tyler, I am gettin' kinda hungry. You want to go grab some dinner, since it seems you and I are kinda out here alone. I'd rather not eat dinner tonight by myself..." She asked.
Her inner goddess was wincing hoping he didn't think she came off as some creeper trying to spend every waking moment together.
"If not it's totally cool.." She blurts.

Tyler Gates
[/b] "Yeah, that sounds good, after all the compant has been nice enough to buy."[/size] -----------------------------------------
As he was finishing this comment, a voice can be heard yelling. [/i]THAT'S HIM![/b][/i]. A few police officers come running up slamming Tyler against the bar and put his hands behind his back as they place handcuffs on him. Another officer searches his pockets and pulls out the company credit card. [/i]Tyler Gates, you are under arrest for theft![/b][/i]. The pull him off the counter as he fights from them long enough to plant a kiss on Heather before officers begin walking off with him. [/size] -----------------------------------------[/color] Tyler Gates[/b] "I think a raincheck is in order, call me."[/size] -----------------------------------------
He knew that he hadn't given her his number but loved leaving her in suspense. And he was almost certain they'd cross paths again. -----------------------------------------[/color] [/center] |
