This was nothing like what she had expected, it was almost like a huge family of a bunch of distant relatives that constantly hung out with one another. Sure there were a few of those people that had a certain dislike for one another but every family has certain members that some sort of hate for one another. But she didn't expect anything like this.

"Ok everyone, settle down" The Chairman of the Board spoke up from the front of the room. "Tonight we enter into the 2 week warning before Mania, everyone has their assignments tonight. Everyone knows what is expected of them and if you don't please see me and Steph before we go live tonight. Real quick before we head out and start to get ready for the show, I'd like to welcome our newest writer to our crack staff…"

"You mean our staff on crack right Vince?" a loud voice that was easily recognized as Edge came from the back of the room as everyone seemed to crack up laughing.

"Yes Adam that too…but not only that but she will be also on an onscreen role as my daughter's executive assistant, please welcome Laurali O'Neil" Vince finished pointing over to the red head that was leaning against the wall clutching on to a leather bound notebook.

She looked around at everyone not really knowing the reception she was going to receive but they all clapped in response to this as she shyly waved to everyone.

"I assure you she is not as quiet as she is letting on. She's been two weeks on staff already and her and I have already had our fair share of disagreements" Vince said with a smile winking over towards Laurali.

"Well Vince, someone had to protect the dignity of Santino, lord knows he gets enough bullshit from Beth and Rosa" Laurali spoke up with a smile on her face as the entire room cracked up laughing.

"Nice to know-a someone has my back" Santino spoke up as Beth smacked him in the back of his head playfully. "I take so much aboose"

"Don't worry Santino, I have your back" Chris Jericho spoke up from the front of the room.

"Well, we know you'd take care of Beth, you're the only guy here that will hit a woman willingly" Laurali snapped comically across the room with the collective "OOOOHHH" coming from the rest of the room. "What too soon?"

"See I told you she wasn't quiet." Vince said laughing, as the incident that happened in Vancouver had seem to pass over lightly knowing that it was two stupid drunk fans and Chris was just defending himself. Even Chris was laughing to himself about the comment smiling towards the newest female on the WWE roster. "Ok everyone, good luck tonight, and Jericho, Steph and Laur please stay behind for a private meeting"

"OH YOU ARE IN TROUBLE!!!" quirked Edge

"Oh shut it ass clown" Jericho yelled towards the back as everyone was slowly making their way out except the three that were asked to stay. Laurali slowly made her way up to Chris when he wasn't paying attention. And he turns around and smiles at her those crystal blue eyes shining still getting a kick out of her joke. "Hey there Ms. O'Neil, welcome to the Raw brand"

"Thank you Mr. Jericho, look if what I said offended you I'm sorry, sometimes I speak before thinking" Laurali spoke up barely looking at him.

"Ah yes we all that issue sometimes. It's alright though, I'm impressed on how fast you came up with that. Keep that sort of quirky humor and you'll go far, especially with me." he said winking at her causing her to smile and giggle a bit.

"God I just sounded like a stupid little school girl there. It's going to be a long night isn't it?" Laurali said finally looking him in the eyes for the first time.

"Oh hon you have no idea…" Jericho spoke up

"Jericho, O'Neil…meeting" Vince spoke up from the table. Causing Laurali to straighten up almost immediately as Jericho laughed at this. She's was so relaxed until that very moment, how strange.

Damn why is he being so nice to me? I'm just the newbie, he's suppose to be mean….right?

They both made their way to the table having a seat in front of Vince and Stephanie as Vince was looking through some papers. "Ok, I hope that everything is ok between you two, that crack that Laurali made was priceless. In fact with you two in the newest storyline together after Mania I want you two to keep that same type of return between you."

"Nah we're good. That was a great line. So, what kind of storyline do you have in mind Vince?" Jericho spoke up almost in a worried tone.

"Well with Laurali being Steph's executive assistant I figured after Mania you two would make for some interesting moments. Especially when you start to demand title shots again, you and her are going to have a lot of interaction. Not only that but Laurali isn't going to be in that role forever, as a matter of fact she's a trained worker as well so she will eventually be stepping between the ropes, just not for a few months." Vince answered clearly.

"So what is this going to lead too?" Laurali spoke up for the first time since talking with Chris.

"We're not sure yet, except that it'll get Chris to turn face like his crazy fans have been practically begging him to do" Stephanie spoke up taking over the role of mediator of the meeting

"Oh thank God no more three piece suits" Chris joked "They are cool every once in a while but it's getting to be recockulous wearing them every single week. I miss my t-shirts"

"We know, all we know at this moment is that Laurali will be your catalyst for your face turn. I want you two to meet up and discuss the possible ways on doing this and feed us any ideas. We are up for anything including a love storyline" Vince said which made Chris' eyebrows raise and Laurali's face turn a slight color of red. Vince laughed a bit and looked at his watch "Wow, ok Chris you better go get ready you have your thing with Ric tonight. Please keep us up to date with everything and we'll get the ball rolling on this as soon as possible"

Vince and Stephanie said their goodbyes shaking both their hands leaving Chris and Laurali by themselves to ponder over what they had just been told.

"So…love story?" Chris spoke up breaking the silence, she looked over at him with a dumbfounded look on her face. After all, wasn't Chris happily married?

Definitely not what she was expecting.
