"You *slept* with Matt's girlfriend?!"
Jay's jaw dropped in shock as he stared at his best friend.
"Jeez! Keep your voice down!" Adam exclaimed in annoyance. What if Matt came back or someone out in the hall heard what Jay had just said? He knew for sure that he didn't want to cause any trouble - for anyone.
"Sorry, man... but..." The short-haired blond man put his hands up in an almost shrugging gesture. "I need details!"
"No, you don't," Adam snapped irritably. "All there is to tell is that she and I were friends back before I was in the WWE. We hung out a lot, we trained once in awhile, and-"
"Hold on," the other man interjected. "You guys trained together? You always trained with *me*. How is it I never met her back then?"
The tall blond man sighed and ran a hand through his long hair.
"Does it really matter?"
"Well, no," Jay replied. "But it's curious." He gave his best friend an odd look. Then, "So, you were saying?"
"Yeah... Well, she was leaving for Mexico right before I was heading to the WWE. And..." Adam felt a mixture of warmth and sadness over the bittersweet memory. "We went out the night before she left, and we ended up having sex..."
"Yeah?" Jay's blue eyes grew wider with interest, a smile spreading across his face.
"That's all, Jay," the tall blond man said, annoyed at his friend's obvious enjoyment over dishing out the dirt of his life. "Oh, except for the fact that she was gone when I woke up the next morning."
"Gone? You mean she didn't stay all night?"
"That's *exactly* what I mean," Adam answered. It hurt him just remembering this, and even more so in actually speaking about it. "All that was left of her when I woke up was a note she left me."
"Ouch..." Jay said. "Then again, at least she left you a note." Then, perking up a bit more, "Did she tell you how good you were in it?"
"Jay!"
The short-haired man let out a fit of almost cackling laughter, throwing his head back as he clapped at his own remark. Adam, on the other hand, was not amused in the least. Of course, it was obvious his best friend had no clue what kind of effect Amy leaving him like that had had on him.
"Actually," the tall blond man said, "I know I never introduced you to Amy, but I did *mention* her to you."
"You did?"
Adam nodded.
"Yeah, I know I did. You just probably never remembered because the details weren't juicy enough for you."
"This could be true," the shorter man said. "Because I *know* you never told me about sleeping with someone like her."
"Look, Jay," the tall Canadian said, his eyes serious as they fixed on his best friend's face. "You can't ever say a word of this to Matt... or Amy... or *anyone*."
Jay again gave Adam a strange look but nodded. He could see his friend was dead serious.
"Okay... Okay, you win. My lips are sealed."
