| [Thrax opens the door to his locker room and steps inside. As he closes the door Princess, dressed in jeans and a blue tank top, leaps up and hugs him]
Princess – What took you so long? You said you'd be here after the show!!
[Thrax returns the hug with a smile]
Thrax – I got caught up. Had to go out after talking to Manning to issue a challenge.
[Princess steps back with a look of confusion on her face]
Princess – Challenge?
Thrax – Yeah. I want to test myself, so issued an open challenge. Nick Alexander answered it so I assume we'll be fighting next week.
[They walk into the locker room more, Thrax picking up a bag from the bench]
Thrax – Listen, I gotta take a shower and change. You can put the TV on if you want
[He steps through to the shower room and Princess puts on the music channels and drops herself onto the sofa, laying along the length of it. In the background running water can be heard from the shower area. The water stops, and a few minutes later Thrax emerges in his black jeans and a “Lone Wanderer” t-shirt]
Thrax – You ready to go?
[Princess turns off the TV and sits up]
Princess – Go where?
[Thrax walks across the room and offers out his hand]
Thrax – That would be telling. Come on.
[Princess takes his hand. On the way out Thrax picks up his trenchcoat as the two leave]

[The scene opens in a restaurant. Nothing too fancy. The sort of place that is away from tourists so it is quiet, but maintains a great atmosphere for dining. As the camera pans around we see walls that have a red upper half, and wooden lower half. Diners sit, enjoying their meals and partaking in various discussions. The camera stops and zooms towards a booth in the back corner. Inside sit Thrax and Princess, each with a meal in front of them. Princess stops eating and looks up at Thrax]
Princess – This is amazing... How did you find this place?
[Thrax smiles as he looks at Princess]
Thrax – I walk a lot. Was passing by one day and it caught my eye. Thought I'd have to bring you here sometime
[Princess blushes and giggles, looking down to hide her face. The two eat without speaking. A few moments pass before Princess talks again]
Princess – I'm sorry for coming out during your match. I worried after you took that fall off the top rope. I wanted to see if you were ok...
[She keeps looking down, not making eye contact.]
Thrax – I understand. If it really bothers you that much, maybe you should talk to Ruth about accompanying me to matches.
[Princess looks up]
Princess – What about Nick Alexander?
Thrax – He doesn't worry me. He might have that won title contract, but he is beatable
[A waiter comes across and takes their now empty plates. Thrax hands over some money and the two rise. He places his trenchcoat over the shoulders of Princess, the coat almost drowning her due to their size difference.
Hand in hand they walk along through the streets of New York, their path illuminated by the dim street lighting. Their conversation turns to trivial matters as they make their way back into Thrax's apartment]
Thrax – And this is where I live
[Princess walks in and around the living room, almost immediately she picks up a picture of a house from the desk]
Princess – Is this yours?
[She turns the photograph to show Thrax]
Thrax – Yeah, that's my place back home in England
[Princess smiles as she turns the picture to look at it again]
Princess – You'll have to take me there sometime
[She places the photo down again and looks around the room]
Thrax – I'll make sure I do when we get some time free
[He looks up at the clock on the wall]
Thrax – It's late, we should get some sleep
[Princess nods in agreement as the two head off towards the bedrooms]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[The sunlight shines through the half-open curtains into the living room. Thrax, already dressed in jeans and t-shirt, is sat at his desk checking his emails. One from Frankie Manning catches his eye. Reading it's content he smiles and types out a reply. As he hits send he feels two arms wrap around his shoulders]
Thrax – Good morning
[He spins on the chair as Princess sits on his lap. She is wearing one of his t-shirts, it looking like a nightdress on her]
Princess – What was that email from Manning about?
[Thrax smiles]
Thrax – Just the details for this weeks card. Seems like I've had some offers that are good for business, so Nick will have to wait.
[A look of confusion crosses Princess's face]
Princess – Offers? From who?
[Thrax pauses, knowing that the details are unconfirmed]
Thrax – I can't say yet, but this week should be a good week for Thrax and the EWA
[Princess pulls herself out of his neck and places a soft kiss onto his lips as the scene ends]
