Charly Time.
--
After the interview with Charly in the octagon, I made my way to her backstage so we can talk some more.
"Finally I catch you without the cameras rolling for a change." I said to Charly as she was gathering up her belongings before leaving.
She blushed.
"Thanks for coming! I was so not expecting you to walk into that cage for real!"
"Oh trust me I believe you. We all saw the look on your face." She said with a smile.
"But you did fantastic tonight. You put on a great show, & the crowd absolutely loooooved seeing Black Panther back in action." She said as she pinched my cheek.
"Thank you. Glad to know you're a big fan of me." I said while taking a superhero-esque stance.
"Oh stop! I think it's obvious you're the bigger fan of me in this friendship!"
She wasn't wrong.
"I'm flying to Cleveland tomorrow to watch the All-Star game before I head back home to Phoenix. Are you going?" I asked.
"Can't. I have to be in Los Angeles early on Monday morning so I'll be flying back tomorrow."
"That's a bummer. I was going to invite you along with me. I guess instead I could ask you, what are you doing tonight? The fights are over & Vegas is still very alive."
"You know I'm actually feeling more of a lay-in-the-hotel room kind of night? I'm tired from traveling all day & just basically working all day too." She said as she continued to gather her stuff together.
"How about you come have a lay-in-the-hotel room kind of night with me tonight? I'm not in the mood for balling tonight either. I just want to chill with you for a bit."
She pointed her finger in my face really quickly.
"Netflix & chill?"
I laughed.
"Pick whatever show you want." I lobbed back.
She let out a big laugh & hit me lightly on the chest.
"I can't stand you, Tiny!"
"Let me get my stuff in order & I'll come over tonight. Here's my number."
Bet. Charly Arnolt is staying the night with the Goat. I took her number & we parted ways.

An hour later, there was a knock at my hotel room door.
"Hey, Charly!" I said as I opened the door & let her in.
"Hi, Tiny." She said back with a very soft tone.
"You got me out of my hotel for the night. So here I am. All yours for the night."
As she began to make herself comfortable, I turned some music on & made sure the door was locked, in preparation for a fun, uninterrupted night.
