Dirty Laundry 19

It's my mother's birthday today, and my cousin stopped by with a card on his way to work.
He saw my laptop was open and that I was writing.  I've been working on a new short story in the last few days.  Totally inspired by something I saw online.
I let Walsh have a sneak at what it was I'm writing, and he just started to laugh.  Totally reminded me of our Grandfather.  He looks more like him every day.

Anyways, Walsh asked me who my new crush was?  Walsh is about the only person, other then my sister who's paid attention to my writing and my crushes.

Me-: "Just what makes you think I have a new crush?"

Walsh-: "Your lead character. You gave him longer hair and a mustache. So it's not based on The Celebrity."

Me-: "You suck."  I think I blushed. No, I know I blushed a bit cause he started to smile at me.  "I was watching those youtube rants by that new wrestler.'

Walsh- :"I should have known it was another wrestler. Which one?"

I pulled up his youtube and showed Walsh. "Him."   Walsh laughed as he started to scratch at his right shoulder.  "You're wife's thinking of you."

Walsh-: "Witch. You cursed me." his cell started to buzz with a text.  It was indeed his wife. Damn, I'm good. "This guy? Really? The Celebrity is going to be jealous."

Me-: "See, this is why I love you. Why couldn't you have been my brother instead of my sister being my sister?"

Walsh-: "Looks like a porn star not a wrestler. Angry Porn Star."

Me-: "Yeah, well, whatever. As long as I can spin it into a creative roll what does it matter?"

Walsh agreed and wished my mom a happy birthday and took off for work.  I sat back down to finish the paragraph I had been working on when he came over, and started to think about what he said.  The idea that The Celebrity would be jealous of another guy being the physical base for the hero of my writing...
