At the end, she pulls Sola in closer, looking directly into her blue eyes. Her expression, calm, serene, resolute, and loyal, reassures Carmody even as it almost moves her to tears.
>"Sola, you'll never lose me if it's in my power at all. That's a promise. I don't think I've ever felt....."Carmody pauses. She's looming close to Sola, her hands on her waist, and this feels a lot like it's leading somewhere, but Sola's right: now's not the time. That time, when it comes, should be more special than feeling Sola up with cold hands and raw nerves.
>"You mean more to me than any contract or wrestling match or title or anything ever could. That simple."Carmody's eyes drift to the Divine Touch contract that Sola had produced.
>"Speaking of which, I'm glad you kept that. If you're offering to go back with me tomorrow, my first impulse is to say 'no', keep you out of danger, but..... FUCK that. You're Sola Fire. Keep you out of danger? I saw your promo, you accepted a Four-Way Ladder Match with Mighty Milf, Amy Flame, and Onigiri. You ARE danger, girl. So yeah, I want you there with me. And that contract of yours is just what we need to change the issue from what happened tonight."Carmody laughs abruptly.
>"Shoot, maybe we'll both sign the fucking things together. Wouldn't that be weird?"It was a joke, but one that really wasn't. The possibility hangs awkwardly in the air for a second.
