[This Character Development piece takes place in between the two parts of my recent Lord Allton RP. The Q&A session at the school and the man in hospital]
A dark haired woman is at home in her kitchen preparing dinner when she suddenly rushes into the living room to where her partner is sitting.
Woman: Oh my god! I’ve just had a message from Rob! He’s on the way over.
Man: Rob? I haven’t seen him in ages!
Woman: I know. With him living and wrestling in the States nowadays, he hardly ever finds the time to come home…I don’t know how he’s going to get in the house, though. It’s not exactly wheelchair accessible.
With that, there is suddenly a knock at the door. The man and woman stand up and brush themselves down to welcome their old friend. The woman then opens the door and the man and woman both stand agape.
Allton: Hello, Chris. Hello, Catherine...love.
The man and woman try to say something but can’t. They are too shocked. Lord Allton - or as they know him, Rob - is STANDING IN FRONT OF THEM with a smile!!
Allton: Oof… love… Can I come in? It’s cold out here.
Catherine: I…um… yeah!
Chris: Yeah mate, come in. Come in!
Allton steps through the door with Bill not far behind him and Catherine closes the door.
Catherine: Rob… you’re… you’re walking.
Allton: Yes, that I am! I see you don’t get a chance to watch OCW, that much. Disappointing, love I must say.
Allton winks.
Catherine: B-b-but…how?
Allton smiles and gestures towards the sofa. Chris nods and Allton sits down. Bill sits in a nearby chair.
Allton: I’ll tell you in a moment. First of all, allow me to introduce Bill. He’s my permanent support worker these days.
Bill: Hello.
[smear:#19e65d]Catherine and Chris: Hi.
[/smear:#1995e6:0]
Allton: Bill… Catherine was my main support worker before I was a wrestler and these two, whether they wanted to be or not, were basically my second mom and dad.
Catherine: Despite me being younger than you.
Everyone laughs and Catherine goes to make a cup of tea. When she returns, she sits back on the sofa and looks at Allton.
Catherine: So…
Allton takes a sip of tea, looking at Catherine confused.
Allton: Hm? Oh right! The walking thing! Well, my friend in America. He is well… I’m not sure what the hell he is. Sometimes he’s a scientific genius as well as a wrestler and my partner in management over in OCW. Sometimes he has more money than Batman, Iron Man AND Elon Musk combined and has enough money and knowhow to build the weirdest of contraptions - including, but definitely not limited to actual, working, full size Power Ranger Zords.
Chris: You mean the giant robots?!
Allton: Precisely. So how does that coincide with me being able to walk you may ask? Well…
Allton pulls up his trouser legs to reveal his metallic leg braces.
Allton: It’s thanks to these that I can walk and stand. Zybala really is a miracle worker.
This conversation continues for about an hour before Chris asks a question.
Chris: So, what’s it like being home seeing everyone again?
Allton: It’s absolutely great. Yesterday I went to my niece’s school for a special Q&A session. But unfortunately that was……soiled.
Catherine: Why?
Allton: Some old guy came in from the back and called me out on being a cripple.
Chris: He did what?
Catherine: Tell me you went and kicked his ass. You have the perfect cover for it nowadays.
Allton: Hahaha. Actually, I didn’t need to. My boys cleared him out before I got to him. They’re gigantic - and very loyal to me. Even now when I joined OCW management. I’ll have to bring them round one day. Vincenzo, the shortest of the three, is still 6 foot 5.
Chris: That’s just taller than me! And he’s the shortest, you say?
Allton nods with a smile.
Allton: Well guys, I won’t keep you. But Catherine, I can’t help but notice, no wedding ring yet. What gives?
Chris: We’re waiting.
Allton: What for?
Catherine: For you to come home long (ish) term.
Allton: Oh, guys that’s really cool. But… you wait for me to return to the UK long term, you’ll be waiting a long while. But you give me a date and you know I’ll come back for it. Well, do everything I can, to, anyway.
Chris: OK mate. We’ll let you know.
Allton then stands up, handing back his empty cup of tea.
Allton: I have to go back and check out the old place. You guys take care.
Catherine: I’m sure you’ll be surprised to learn that it’s still standing.
Allton: The building is still there?
Catherine: Uh-huh.
Allton: Is anyone in my old flat?
Chris: Not yet.
Shocked, Allton says goodbye to Catherine and Chris and Bill gets Allton back in the car. Allton waves to his old friends and the screen fades out.
=======================================
The next day Catherine and Chris are in town and they overhear an old guy outside of a pub on the phone.
Guy: Yeah, I know he’s in town. Can’t believe someone like that prick is a celebrity from this town. Fuckin’ ridiculous, innit? Well he had some little autograph session at a school yesterday and I went and told him what I thought of the bastard.
**Pause**
Hahaha, yeah! Yeah! I told the cunt what I thought of him, yeah. Then his three muscle-bound thugs got me out of the building though, yeah.
Catherine and Chris then stare at one another and Catherine then nods to him. The scene then fades out.
