Dita Morgan has dropped her bags off at the hotel and is sitting in the hotel bar with her head in her hands, a coke in front of her. She has her eyes shut and looks like she would black out the whole world if she could. She doesn’t notice a skinny brunette is ripped jeans, ballet flats and an oversized cardigan sit down in front of her. The brunette is Kat Westwood who Dita hasn’t seen since her DUI and rehab trip.
Kat Westwood: Well someone looks blue.
Dita looks up and sees Kat and smiles.
Dita Morgan: How did you know I was here?
Kat Westwood: It’s not hard to track people down.
Kat shrugs and eyes Dita’s drink.
Kat Westwood: Why you drinking coke?
Dita Morgan: I’m still on probation.
Kat Westwood: So.
Dita Morgan: I know but I don’t want to cross that line.
Kat Westwood: Dude, you’re no fun.
Dita Morgan: Whatever... Feel free to get yourself a drink; I’m fine with people drinking around me.
Kat Westwood: I heard you joined a new company, APW?
Dita Morgan: Yeah... I’m scheduled to wrestle in a few days...
Kat Westwood: You don’t sound to enthusiastic about it.
Dita Morgan: That’s because I’ve totally lost my presence in the ring, I’m just on this endless spiral of loss after loss.
Kat Westwood: What about this week?
Dita Morgan: El Insecto de Negro I’ve not seen him in action yet, he’s new.
Kat Westwood: This give you a chance to step it up then. Get back in the game, you can get back into that winning head space. Maybe you just need to let up on yourself and start having fun again. You know? if you enjoy yourself in the ring again you’ll get back to winning.
Dita Morgan: I just feel there’s a constant road block in my way, like I can’t do anything right.
Kat Westwood: Are you sure you don’t just have boy trouble distracting you?
Dita Morgan: What?
Kat Westwood: Well you seem like you’re getting to know this Benny dude, what about Shadow moving to your show? That got to effect your ring work.
Dita Morgan: Why would that have an effect? Look Shadow is always going to be apart of my life, he taught me so much about wrestling, and myself. He was my rock and I ruined that relationship. Benny is a friend.
Kat Westwood: Whatever dude, I know you.
Dita Morgan: Maybe you should, sign up with APW? We can go on the road together again.
Kat smiles a wicked grin and then heads to the bar.

Friday night last orders at the bar, we head outside and Kat hails a cab to take us to Bungalow. There's a massive crowd outside so we get in to the queue it's quarter past eleven now we won't get in till quarter to midnight. It's quarter to and we get to the front, girl on a guest list gives me that once over, Kat flashes her members card and the girl asks security to check inside my shoes, And I’m thinking you can play this game with me but you know you're gonna lose. She looks me up and down, I don't make a sound. There's a lesson that I want you to learn, if you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned.
In the club make our way to the bar, there’s the normal half dressed girls you know the kind, good dancing love but you should of worn a bra girls who are leaving nothing to the imagination! The guy on the mike is making too much noise shouting over the record not even giving you the chance to hear it play. While those girls in the corner keep glaring over. A guy at the bar spots us and buys the first drinks; Kat gives me a scowl when I ask just for water. Did I think about having a drink then? I need to put that out of my mind.
I look over to where Kat was and she’s no where to be seen, I need some air, it’s too hot, I head to the bathroom and look at my reflection in the mirror, and then I hear Kat’s voice she’s shut in one of the cubicles “She still has no idea... Saved me getting caught though” *Sniff Sniff* “She can’t stay on the wagon for long...” *Sniff Sniff*
I freeze; I can’t believe what I’ve heard. And it’s as if everything clears... Kat was the one who... I can’t stay here I have to get out. I push my way out of the bathroom and through the club, I need to get outside, I race out of the cub and the cool air hits me. The first thing I do is run to the nearest cab and jump in... I need to just get out... To get away...

We learn things we don’t always want to and some things maybe should stay buried so we don’t have to deal with them but for some people it’s better to face those fears and Dita has had to learn to face hers. Its funny how some things can make you so determined, make you fight and never back down.
