BRANDON
Dec. 31, 2001 - Times Square- New York City - 11:50 pm
"I'm glad we could be here Melissa." I said as we looked over the madness of Times Square on New Years Eve. "Ten minutes until 2002." Melissa said excitedly. "Ok, we're on..." Carson Daly said "...Ok, we're back on MTV's New Years Eve 2k2 and I'm here with one of the newest couples Melissa Schuman of Dream and WWF superstar Ice, how are you guys?" Carson asked "We're rockin' it Carson." I replied.
"Ok, give us the story, how did you guys hook up?" Carson asked. "Actually, MTV is responsible for that. We met at the Video Music Awards, and there was a 30 minute break in the rehearsals and me and a few friends got on stage and did 'Wanted Dead Or Alive' and..." Melissa spoke up "...when the song was over, me and the other girls went to meet them, and the attraction was instant."
"Music of 2001, who do you think has a future next year?" Carson asked. "Well for me, of course I'm gonna say Dream, but some of my picks would be Godsmack, Linkin Park, Staind and P.O.D." I replied. "We are 60 seconds away from 2002." Carson said.
"Melissa, I love you." I said as the clock in Times Square counted down, it was at 45 seconds. Melissa and I surveyed the scene. I estimate about 500,000 people were here in Times Square, and everybody was happy, including me.
"Brandon, since there is 20 seconds left, I just wanna say, thank you for everything. I can't tell you how happy you've made me these past few months. I love you." Melissa said as the countdown began. "10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-....1. HAPPY NEW YEAR." Times Square yelled. Melissa grabbed me by the shirt and pulled me in for a new years kiss, which lasted the entire first minute of 2002.
"So, what's up for you?" Melissa asked as she broke the kiss. "I've got the live Smackdown in D.C. on Thursday." I said as we left Times Square, which took a while and got back to our hotel.
Once we got back to our hotel room, I popped in a tape of the Raw that aired on Christmas Eve. The match was Ice vs. Andrea.
------------------------------------------------------
Dec. 20 - Raw
Andrea comes to the ring to the boos of the crowd. She has changed immensely since turning on Edge, she has become vain and stuck up. "Rise" then hit the P.A. and the crowd erupted.
Ice came to the ring with a glazed over look in his eyes. Ice has felt betrayed the last few weeks with the split of the Hardys and Andrea turning on Edge and the fans. Ice enters the ring and goes after Andrea, she slides out of the ring and laughs at Ice, Ice slides out of the ring after her, but she goes back into the ring.
Ice grabs her leg and pulls her out of the ring and they exchange punches. Ice knees Andrea in the chest and throws her in the ring. Ice then goes up top and waits for Andrea to get up. When Andrea gets up she is met with a missile dropkick. Andrea gets up quickly and attacks Ice, she backs him into a corner and punches him repeatedly, but ice soon takes advantage again.
Ice dominates for the next few minutes until Kurt Angle runs down to the ring, she slips Andrea a pair of brass knuckles. Ice approaches Andrea and she nails him with the brass knucks, Andrea covers and gets the 1-2-3.

"Andrea, what's up?" I asked. "Nothing, just thinking about what Bradshaw said on the Christmas Eve Raw." Andrea said. "What did he say?" I asked. "He said, I was lucky to have a friend who would job to me." Andrea replied. "What did Brandon say?" I asked. "He said I deserved to win" Andrea replied.
"Well, the Rumble is coming up. It's going to be me vs Trish for the Women's Title." I said. "Let's not forget, myself vs. Edge for the Intercontinental Title." Andrea replied. "And the 30 man rumble itself." I shot back. "Yeah, I'm going to try to get in that match." Andrea stated. At that moment a couple for guys approached us.
"Hi" one guy said, he had short black hair and wore a black t-shirt, I didn't recognize him, but Andrea recognized the other guy. "Marcello" She said. Marcello Martocci, class of 2000. "Hey, how are you guys doing?" Marcello asked. "We're cool." Andrea replied. "Hey, can you guys sign these?' Marcello's friend asked. "Sure." Andrea said as we took the two 8x10 glossies of ourselves and a marker from Marcello and signed the pics. "Thanks" Marcello's friend said as he walked away. Marcello stayed with us.
"Hey, where is Brandon I haven't seen him in a while." Marcello said as he brushed the long strands of hair out of his eyes. " Where have you been. Brandon moved to California six months ago." Andrea said. "Oh ok" Marcello said as he went off to join his friend. "Let's go." Andrea said as we went off campus and got in her car.
