James - Orange Cassidy โค Dustin - Chuck Taylor โค Greg - Trent?
Being a daughter of the man known as Kevin Von Erich, you become used to people looking at you with some type of pity if they know your family's history.
Growing up, my fellow classmates asked about my uncles, but I didn't really know them, just stories of them.
But I learned from my siblings and cousins that it is just how it will be. That many wrestling fans will ask about the supposed curse on our family. I learned who my true friends were, and I tried to grow up away from the family business.
But I guess it is just in my blood.
I couldn't stay away from wrestling,
But I didn't use the Von Erich name or our real last name, Adkisson. I use my first name, but I used my mother's maiden name, May.
Along the way, I met and became good friends with Dustin and Greg, and through the two of them, I met James. With his smile and his kind eyes, I fell for him, hard, which I pushed those feelings aside, of course.
I focused on wrestling, and I soon became a part of the best friends, and I even moved in with Dustin and James as I refused to take money from my family, even though I know they were just wanting to help.
Then the four of us got assigned to AEW, and you could say the rest was history.
But for the first time in a very long time, I am nervous about tonight. My father and brothers are coming to watch me.
They say they never miss a match when I have one. They always make sure to stop what they are doing to watch me, but tonight will also be the night I tell the world I have a 3rd generation wrestler.
That I come from the Von Erich family.
I have kept it pretty well hidden.
I very rarely post anything personal on social media, as it is usually just about wrestling or cooking.
But tonight, that is all going to change.
โ
I was pacing back and forth when James found me.
"Hey, you okay?" He asked me as I placed his hands on my shoulders and had me look at him.
"Just nervous about tonight, and I don't know why. I mean, this is my family, and I am not ashamed about them."
James dropped his hands from my shoulders but didn't move back. "Then what is the issue? You do wrestle a lot like your dad."
"I was trained by him, so yes, I do. I don't know what the issue is now. When I first started, I didn't want to get matches just because of who my family is, and I got them all on my own. I guess maybe this was one part of me. I liked not being asked the same questions like my brothers did at the beginning of their career or my cousin. I didn't have to live up to anyone expectations except my own."
The two of us continued to talk, not knowing that we were being watched.
ORANGE CASSIDY'S POV:
I watched as she walked away, hoping I was able to calm her down. She seemed more relaxed at the end of our conversation.
"James, may I have a word?" I was startled to hear a new voice join me. I turned around to see Kevin standing there, her father.
"Yes. What would you like to talk about?"
"I saw you and my daughter talking. I knew she would be nervous about tonight, and I came to calm her down, but you seemed like you were able to."
"I hope I did, sir."
"I also noticed one thing." I waited for him to continue as he crossed his arms across his chest and looked me up and down. I instantly became nervous.
"I noticed the way how you looked at her. How long?"
"How long for what, Sir?" Why are my palms sweaty?
"How long have you had feelings for my daughter?" His posture changed, and his body relaxed.
"I see the way how you look at her, and all I can say is that she looks at you the same way."
I started to stutter like a 13-year-old boy.

Kevin grabbed me by the shoulders and gave me a huge smile. "I would ask her out before someone else decides to James."
โ
Kevin left me standing there, giving me a lot of food for thought. I felt a hand gently on my arm, and I saw it was her. She had a soft smile on her face.
"I saw you and my Dad talking. Is everything okay?"
"Yes, he just wanted to have a talk, that is all." I laid my hand apon hers.
"If you don't mind me asking, may I ask about what?"
'Should I tell her?' I thought to myself, but then Kevin's words came back to me.
"He just talked about you." I don't know how she would feel if she found out her Dad got involved in her love life.
"I know that. I saw him mouth my name." She teased.
"I did like how comfortable the two of you looked talking to one another. So many people put him on a pedestal when he really is just a simple guy, but that also means he is comfortable enough with you to put his guard down." She softly said as she took a step closer.
"James, I am wondering if you would like to go out for dinner, just the two of us?"
"As in a date?" We have had dinner alone plenty of times before.
"Yes, a date."
"I would like that."
