Descent Into Hell Part 5: Muddin'

So after the night where I acted as a bodyguard I headed home and Kisha and I once again continued our text and calling friendship because of mine and her work schedules.

After a couple of weeks, Kisha claimed that she had talked to Jeremy and things had worked out where he was going to leave her alone.

He let me know that a good friend of her's brother has just lost his battle with cancer. There was a celebration of life at a bar up the street from her apartment and she hoped I could come down there cause she said she really could use a friend. I agreed. BAD IDEA!!!!

So i went down to sedalia and met kisha at her house and we walked over to coach's and there we saw a bunch of people who knew her friend. She introduced me and then low and behold Jeremy walks in. He walks over to kisha and offers her a hug......mind you after the last time i saw him i was a little weary of him. she hugged him back and invited him over to her place afterwards to hang out....WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is decided that we are going to go out to the lake and have a bonfire and drink some. Jeremy offered to drive and against my better judgement, we get in his car. I wanted to take my own car so that if it ends up being uncomfortable then I could leave.
While driving, Jeremy is constantly making fun of Kisha and I for wearing our seatbelts.(This will come to bite him in the ass later in this part). He pulls the truck over and looks at us and tells us to get ready to get the shit scared out of us. With that statement he pulls the truck into a field and begins to go "Mudding." The only problem with that is there was NO MUD!!!!!!
After several minutes of Kisha and I shouting at him to stop and slow down, the truck finally gives up and flips onto the driver's side. So while I'm hanging in the air, Jeremy is complaining about his arm hurting. We roll down my window and Jeremy climbs over all of us to get out of the car and by looking at his arm I can tell that it's broken. He calls the cops and Kisha and I wait in the truck. She undos her seatbelt and climbs in the back. I unclick my seatbelt and just stand there and Jeremy comes back and tries to get Kisha to tell the cops that she was driving and I looked right at Jeremy and said Hell no. I told him that it was his mess and his responsibility and it will be his job to tell the truth cause if he doesn't then i will.
The cops and EMTs show up and break the back window to let us out. I am perfectly fine, no scratches or scrapes....nothing. I was lucky. Kisha was not. She had to be life flighted to MU hospital in Columbia and I told the officer that as soon as I got to my car I was driving down there and I would probably be speeding and he said ok.
I get to Columbia and it turns out all she has a concussion and a fractured wrist. I took her home and made sure she was ok before heading home.

Descent Into Hell Part 4: The Bodyguard

Now anybody that knows me knows how much I LOVE Karaoke and so it was a given that I would go with Kisha. I had never heard her sing but the desire to do so had intrigued me. Now mind you, we have been on two dates with one of them happening while she was with someone else, but we had never made it official of being a couple.

Up to this point, she had had a few issues with her ex. I didn't think he was going to be a big deal but that all changed one night.

I went down to Sedalia for the night one afternoon after I got off work to go with Kisha to karaoke at a local bar. When we got there the evening started out great. I got up and sang a couple songs and everyone loved it and was enjoying themselves. I was over shooting a game of pool when all of a sudden Kisha's ex walks in. He immediately walks over to Kisha and starts getting in her face about getting back with him. I see that there are a couple of friends with him but also there some friends of Kisha's getting back up in his face. He finally backs off mouthing that he was going to start a fight with the guys that backed Kisha up including me.

Needless to say we stayed til the bar closed and her ex didn't come back. We stayed until the place closed and someone ran inside and said that Jeremy(Kisha's ex) was outside pacing waiting for everyone to come out. The owner is standing next to Kisha and asks me to make sure Jeremy doesn't get to her. I said I would and we left.

As soon as we make it outside Jeremy spots us and starts walking towards us. The owner of the bar comes out and yells at Jeremy to stay where he is and I'm able to get Kisha in the car and drive her back to her place.

While there, I wait until she's ready to go to sleep and after she lays down, I start to leave and she asks me to stay just in case Jeremy shows up there. So once again, I sleep there and of course Jeremy didn't show up.

That was the first confortation with Jeremy but it wouldn't be the last. Little did I know that in less than a week that my life would be in danger and Kisha's as well.

Descent Into Hell Part Three: Kidnapping

So, once again I traveled down to Sedalia to see Kisha and see the new car she got. I met her at JCPenneys right when you get into town and she showed me her new car. Then she told me to get in. I laughed and asked if she was kidnapping me and she said she was and once again told me to get in. So I did.

2 and a half hours later, we arrive in Osage Beach, MO. I had never been down there before so it was a new experience for me. I asked her why we were down there and she said it was because she wanted to play ten cent skeeball with me. We go down to the strip and go to the arcade and for a couple hours play skeeball, mini golf, and video games. We walk the strip and go into the other shops.

It's getting dark out and I knew I needed to get back to sedalia so I can head home after a fun-filled day. She invites me to dinner and we go to JB Hooks and it was some of the most wonderful food I have ever eaten. It was literally a fancy restaurant with cloth napkins and two different kinds of forks. It was delicious.

While we are in the bar area having a cigarette, her phone rings and she walks outside to talk on the phone. My first thought was that I felt a little awkward by myself in the bar. When she returned to the bar area I could tell she was upset. I asked her what was wrong and she said her ex just called her and was asking her where she was and who she was with. I told her not to worry about him and to try and enjoy the rest of the evening.

We head back to Sedalia and she asked if I would stay at her place that night just in case her ex tried anything. I agreed and she slept in the upstairs bedroom while I slept downstairs. The entire night we texted between two floors.

The next day we head to my car so i can head home and as I am leaving I decided to go for it and I kissed her. As I pull away she pulls me in again. I told her goodbye and I left.

We continue to text and call each other several times over the next couple of weeks when she asked me if I would come down to karaoke with her at a bar in Sedalia and I obliged. I never would've thought that it would be a night I'll never forget.

Descent Into Hell Part Two: First Date

So the day came where I traveled down to Sedalia, MO to meet Kisha for lunch to get to know her better. I knew she was with someone but at the time I figured that after my break up I could use a friend.

I picked her up at the apartment and went to a local Mexican restaurant and we just sat and talked for an hour and a half about her hobbies and interests. She said she was a former bull rider until she broke her back and had to retire. How she used to be a stripper in texas until she moved back to Missouri to help out her mom.

After lunch was over, she said she had to get ready to go to work and so I dropped her off at her place and she asked me if I would stop by the bar that night and I said I would. I went to Warrensburg to visit with some friends that I hadn't seen in a while. Later that night, I traveled back to the bar and literally sat at the bar all night drinking Mountain Dew and talking to her all night long.

Near the end of the night, her boyfriend walks in drunk as a skunk and proceeds to degrade her at the bar in front of her customers. I didn't say anything because I didn't really know her that well and anybody who knows me knows that I HATE confortation. I didn't want to cause problems and so I didn't get involved. I left that night to head home not knowing exactly what came from our meeting and worrying about what would happen between her and her boyfriend.

Fast forward a couple of weeks and I received a text message from Kisha telling me that her boyfriend and her had broken up. She also told me that she had bought a new car and that I should come down to Sedalia and see it and so once again I planned a trip and it would be a trip that would change the entire friendship between the two of us.

Descent Into Hell Part One: Backstory

Ever since I can remember I have always had a problem with the opposite sex. It is probably because I consider myself a geek or a nerd. I enjoy watching professional wrestling. I like playing Dungeons and Dragons and I enjoy hitting people with a PVC Pipe that's been wrapped in Blue Camp Foam or a Pool Noodle. Face It....I'm a Geek! I never thought that I would go through the same experience twice in my life but I did.

My freshman year of college I dated a girl who treated me literally like shit. She destroyed my self-esteem, my self-conscious, and my self-respect. I have never been the same since that year.

Fast forward 4 years and I am with the woman who would help me rediscover myself the most. I had slowly started becoming my old self but it wasn't until I became friends with her that the self-reconcilation picked up the pace. I met her while at battle club at the newly named UCM(the whole hitting people with a PVC Pipe thing) and we became friends. It wasn't until she broke up with her boyfriend at the time that we started thinking more about being together.

Throught the entire 15 months of our relationship, she helped me work through my problems and helped me become a better person. She also is the mother of my only child(as of this posting). Even though we had a falling out we are currently working on becoming friends again and I am under the opinion that we are succeeding.

The whole basis of my second Descent into Hell(as I call it) began the weekend before my best friend and i broke up and ended our engagement. She was still living down south while I had move back up to Excelsior to try and find a job. We met for a weekend literally in the middle to celebrate a couple friend's of ours daughter's first birthday.

The first night we are there, it is determined that we are having a guys night out. We head to a local pool hall to shoot some pool and it's there that we learn that our friend Hurricane was doing a karaoke show at a bar in town and so we head there.

Once we get there that is when I first met Kisha. She was tending bar behind the counter and throughout the night we made idle chit chat. Then one of friends got her phone number and I got it from him and left. Didn't think anything about it.

Needless to say, unfortunately, 4 days later, the relationship ended and I was crushed. So, and now I see it was a huge mistake, I started texting Kisha and there were times that I was on the phone with her for two or three hours. We were becoming great friends. She asked me to come back down to Sedalia and meet her for lunch one day and I told her I would. I was excited that this girl who was hot(mind you not hotter than my fiancee Sam nor hotter than my daughter's mother) but she was hot and I couldn't figure out what she wanted with a geek like me. So I started making plans for a day trip to Warrensburg and Sedalia to see some friends and meet Kisha for Lunch.
