Alex walks into the pool with his black swimming trunks on and a black button down shirt on that is unbuttoned. He lays his bag down next to a bench and throws his shirt off and tosses it on the bench. He stretches out a bit, letting his muscles loosen from all the work he's done lately and and walks to the edge of the pool. Alex looks around, seeing no one around and shaking his head and dives into the pool. He surfaces after a second, getting used to the water and swims over to the edge and leans against the wall, letting the pool water relax him even more. He looks at the ceiling and smiles.
Alex: Finally, a time to just relax... what I would give for a girl to share the time with though.... maybe I should have kept Shana around... nah, that would be more stress.... now Amy would be a girl to keep ahold of if I had a chance....
Alex shrugs the thought off and pushes off the wall, using the swimming as another form of excercise. He does a few laps, not straining himself, just relaxing with it.

Amy strolls calmly down a corridor towards the pool, clad in a black two piece bikini. She looks around at the tiled walls and thinks aloud about what she's accomplished in GHW.
Amy: Man, why am I even here? I've only fought two matches and I've lost both. I could have gone to college and made something of myself, but I had to spend all my money and time training to be the best, and it still didn't work out!
Amy kicks the wall hard and the sound echoes through the room. Amy hears stirring in the pool and looks around to see Alex Stall. Her composure changes instantly.
Amy: Alex! It's good to see you, how are you?
Amy smiles sweetly at Alex, but it is obvious that on the inside she is still troubled.
OOC: There, a little character development ;D

Alex looks at Amy and laughs lightly and swims to the edge of the pool. He pulls himself out and looks at her with a smile, finding it quite funny he just mentioned her and she was there. He looks at the wall and shakes his head.
Alex: Hey Amy, its always a pleasure seeing you around. Now why are you beating on walls, I thought you were only brutal in the ring... I've heard a lot about that temper of yours. Whats troubling you, maybe I can help a bit?
Alex walks over and grabs one of his towels and dries himself off a bit, considering he may be out of the pool for a bit, and it wasn't very becoming to stand there dripping while talking to a beautiful lady.

Amy's smile cracks ever so slighty, she's rather embarrassed to have shown her temper. She sits down near the poolside and looks at Alex
Amy: Really, it's nothing... it's just...
Amy lies down on the stoney ground and sighs deeply...
Amy: Have you ever wondered It doesn't matter what you had for dinner!
Alex Stall pauses, not quite sure of what Amy means.
Amy: I mean, I used to have so many aspirations. I wanted to break down the gender barriers, win world heavyweight titles, and end up remembered being a legend, man or woman. But I've been here two weeks and I haven't even won a match yet. Yet I sacrificed so much to be here, to get to this level. Should I just throw in the towel and conform to being a bimbo diva? Is that the only way forward for me?
She sighs once more, but this time bitterly. Amy sits up and looks towards Alex, her face full of melancholia.

Alex sits down next to Amy after she speaks, he felt sorry for her but smiled at her. He watches as she looks at him with an awkward look, almost devastated that he is smiling. He puts his hand on her shoulder and looks at her sympathetically.
Alex: You know, I used to feel just like you, when I came here from Canada, I joined SCW, I lost every match that was thrown at me.... I got so fed up of being the biggest loser, that I pulled a move in my last match there that could have killed me and my opponent. I realised something when I came here though.
Alex says and Amy looks at him and is puzzled, her only knowing of him being in GHW so far, and only seeing him as a champion and general manager. He smiles now, looking at her and leaning back, propped on his elbows. They look at each other and Amy still looks puzled as Alex shakes his head.
Alex: I used to think that the only way to make it was winning, but now, since I've joined GHW, that its not if you win or lose, its how much you try and do your best. I dont go out there in the ring to win a match or defend a title, I go out there to make my friends, the fans, and myself proud of the things I can do. I beleive you're looking at life all wrong, you certainly shouldn't be a bimbo diva, beleive me, find a guy that makes you happy by being yourself and keep him, I personally beleive you're a great girl. And of course, dont go out there and think if you dont win that you have no future. I personally love having you here in GHW because you are a crowd favorite.
Alex smiles as Amy looks at him, processing what he is saying and feeling a little better about herself. Alex stands up, looks at her and walks around to right in front of her, his back to a rather deep part of the pool.
Alex: And plus, you have to remember that you can do things no one else can, just like me with my abilities to soar across a ring and do a standing back flip. You personally scare almost anyone who steps into that ring with you. No offense, but inside that ring you're one of the meanest people I've ever seen, and thats honestly something going for you. You're a good Fighty fighty person, if I didn't think so, would I have put you in the Cruiserweight tournament? I hope that I'm helping in some way, if not, well, at least the water feels nice.
Alex says as he does a standing backflip into the water and swims back up to the side of the pool. He puts his arms on the edge and looks at Amy, his normal smile still on his face.
Alex: I beleive in you Amy, you're a great Fighty fighty person, and one of the most beautiful women I've met. You have the potential for greatness, and I wouldn't mind facing you the week after Dawn Of Destruction for the Waring Championship, even if I lost, I'd be happy, because I lost it to you and not some punk guy who only cares about his wallet.
OOC: Hawkeye, that last comment didn't mean you, I know you better than that.

Amy looks back at Alex with an appreciative smile. She sits back again and replies to Alex in a happier tone.
Amy: God... you are so right. All this time I thought that the aggression I attained in the ring was a personification of my drive to win, but I was wrong. I go out there and impress the fans, for better of for worse, I just hadn't realised.
Amy stares at the tiled ceiling and giggles happily. She turns to look at Alex.
Amy: Thank you so much Alex, for showing me the way. I understand that when I go out there and fight, it's not because I'm an unbalanced psychopath, it's my drive to succeed! Thank you Alex, for helping me through this, and for entering me in the Cruiserweight tournament. Win or lose, I will not let you down. Hehe... I will spread my Sickness!
With that, Amy dives into the pool (perfect entry- no splash) and smiles once more at Alex.

Alex smiles to her, watching her dive in. He swims back and turns to face her. He hadn't really given many encouraging speeches, but was happy that he could help her out. Inside he was truelly happy for the first time since he walked out from the back in SCW. He splashes her a bit and laughs.
Alex: I'm glad I could help, and remember, you're on my show now, not one of Zant's, the bar is raised a bit, but I'm very sure you'll come out on top.
Alex puts his hands up blocking the water that Amy splashes at him. He then looks into her eyes and smiles lightly, this time more of a kind smile.
Alex: Just remember one thing, its the one thing that kept me going in SCW. When you walk out through that entrance, you have just become the reason that people stay up at night. You have become the center of so many people's attention, and no matter what, win or lose, they want to see you do your best.
Alex then swims back a bit, feeling like he could be crowding Amy a little. He couldn't help but feel great at the moment, but he didn't want to ruin the moment with his feelings he held in for her.

Amy follows Alex and leans against the side of the pool. Alex and Amy play around for a while until they eventually wind down. Amy looks at the walls and notices the clock. Its pretty late.
Amy: Oh man, sorry Alex, but I've gotta go...
Alex looks pretty dissapointed as Amy climbs out and grabs a towel. She wraps it around her lower body and is about to leave before she turns around-
Amy: Thank you so much Alex, how can I ever repay you for your help?

Alex pulls himself out of the pool and watches Amy as she goes to leave, he turns around to dive back in when she stops and turns. Alex smiles at her and looks back, pushing his hair out of his face.
Alex: How about dinner tomorrow night, just me and you at the local GHW hotspot. My treat of course!
Alex says, hoping for her to say yes. she smiles and turns a light shade of red at him asking her out and bites her bottom lip.
Amy: Sure, I'd love to... I'll see you at 7?
Alex: It's a date then
Amy goes a little redder and walks to the door of the pool, she looks back at alex with a smile on her face and leaves the pool to go change. Alex closes his eyes and smiles broadly. He does a backflip into the pool to calm himself down before he gets to rowdy over his latest shot of luck. He swims around for a little while longer, happy with the world in general for once and notices the clock and gets out of the pool and dries off. He goes to the changing room and changes to leave.
