This has been running through my head long enough it is time to make Monster happen. Thanks to my own personal twisted brain, Lady Gaga, and a song that I don't know the name too :D
Vivi waited by the bar for Meg to get off her shift so they could waste away the rest of their night. A guy she had been avoiding all night walked over to her. If you could call tripping over air and stumbling into nothing walking. She rolled her eyes at the smell of him.
"Langston you smell like you fell into a beer vat! Go home!" She turned around trying to wave Wade, the bouncer, over.
"Not without you, sweet thang." He slurred.
She ignored him until he put his hand on her ass. Vivi turned on him slapping his hand away as she did. Langston was instantly pissed off and grabbed her by the wrists. She yelled getting most everyone's attention, including a guy she knew had never been there before. The new guy walked over as though he didn't give a damn then grabbed Langston's arm twisting it behind him until he let Vivi's own arms go to fight to free his other arm from the smaller guy.
"Hey! Hey! Let go!"
"Apologize to the lady and I will." Langston basically begged her to forgive him. "Now get out."
Vivi couldn't talk. The new guy was stunning in a James Dean type of way. Dirty strawberry blonde hair swayed in his eyes. Those eyes! She'd never seen anything like them before they played in the light from crystal blue to gray and Vivi found herself wondering what they would look like if she kissed him.
"Vivi! Are you okay?" Meg touched her arm.
"Huh? Oh yeah. Yes I'm good. Thanks to…" He was gone.
Jon watched the brown eyed beauty from his table by the door. Since working in WWE he had a lot of fans who bugged the hell out of him so he tried to stay close to the door when he went to clubs. He seen the big man stagger up to the girl he was watching. Jon started walking toward them even slower beer still in hand. When the girl screamed he set down his beer and grabbed the bigger man's arm. It didn't take long for the big man to let go of the girl and her friends came running. After making sure the man did in fact walk to the door he picked up his beer again and walked away while the brunette was still in shock.
"Who was he?"
"Dude come on! No guy talk! Remember?" Meg said then took a drink of her cosmo.
"It isn't guy talk!" Vivi argued while she danced. "It's a mystery hot hero talk."
"Please!" Meg joined her on the floor. "Langston would have found his on the floor in minutes if Mr. Savior hadn't shown up."
Vivi's dad and older brothers were MMA fighters and she learned early that in a family full of guys who could fight if she wanted food then she had to fight too. Her dad had started training her when she was five but she wasn't allowed to actually be in a match. But her training was the only reason her parents had agreed that she could move to Las Vegas. Well that and Nat and Chase had moved the year before and needed a good manager.
"How's Chase by the way? Nat said he's worried about "
Vivi took a drink of her Mojito. "He wants back in but Nat said at Cross Fit yesterday he had to slow down. And last night he was asleep when I went to meet up with Nat for his event. I know he wants to fight and he's scared that he'll never get back in but I'm more afraid that if I book him and he gets hurt my dad will kill me."
Meg laughed. "Oh please! You're the only girl and the baby. No chance!"
"Okay well I'd still feel horrible. Let's get out of here."
The girls walked to a bar on the old strip. They set down at one of the last tables available. They chatted with some tourist and regulars. It was their normal Saturday night until she saw mystery guy. She stared at him and wondered if he was following her. Vivi had a great idea, she grabbed Meg's hand and dragged her to the dance floor.
"He's here!" She told her friend.
"OMG! Is he following us?"
Jon was walking by the dancing floor when he saw the cutie from the other club. He set down and watched her and her friend dance together and wondered if he could get a threesome. He smiled at the thought. Then he heard them talking about him. Following them? The thought hadn't crossed his mind. Really he had just gotten some time off to explore his new city. And he'd been in both bars before the brunette, so there. He walked onto the dance floor and tapped on the brunette's shoulder.
Vivi turned around she was just buzzed enough to ask, "Are you following me?"
Jon laughed his dimples showed. "No I was here before you, ladies. I was just wondering if I could buy you two a drink."
Meg smiled. "I think…"
"…No thinking tonight, Vivi. Isn't that what you told me?" Vivi shut Meg up. "I'm Vivi and this is Meg."
"I'm Jon."
"I know." Meg walked passed him.
"Excuse her."
"I think I know why she is acting that way. Does she watch wrestling?"
"We both…OMG Your fucking Dean Ambrose!" How had she not realized it before? Was she that drunk?
"Shh…Yes I am. But I really just want to be Jon tonight."
"I get that. My brothers and dad are MMA fighters. They don't mind fans just not all the time."
"Exactly. And I'm guessing your friend isn't a fan."
Vivi laughed. "Nope. She isn't though I don't know why. How about that drink?"
Jon and Meg actually had a lot in common and Vivi found herself feeling like the third wheel. He was interesting to listen to at least but she knew everything about Meg so she got bored fast. She was just happy Meg was happily engaged to Nat and knew if she ever cheated on him Vivi would kill her.
Meg's phone rang. "Oh it's Nat. I'll be right back."
"So you haven't said much, cutie." Jon turned the conversation to her easily.
"Well when Meg gets on a roll it's hard to shut her up. But I will admit I could listen to you all night. And that isn't the alcohol talking."
"Oh really. Never knew I was that fascinating."
"Yes…"
"…Hey sorry I gotta go Nat's car broke down. He asked if you would pick him up for class tomorrow."
"Sure. Be safe."
"Do you want to go?"
"I'm fine."
"I was thinking about getting out to the city."
"I know the perfect place."
They left the bar and walked back to where he'd left his truck at a valet at the MGM. By the time they got there they were both pretty sober. Vivi found that when they were sober or when Meg wasn't talking nonstop, her and Jon actually had a lot of interests. Even really weird things like Bigfoot and yetis.
"Okay. Odd thing about me?" Vivi thought. "I'm named after Vivien from Pretty Woman."
It was Jon's turn.
"I love eighty's movies. The Breakfast club is one of my top ten." Vivi gave him a funny look. "No really."
"Oh yeah? So let me guess you were the jock?"
"No actually if they could have based Bender off someone even though I was born a few years later it would have been me. I was and still am the no good outsider."
She looked at him as he drove up the highway. "You're not no good, Jon."
"I'm cool with it really. No reason to act different." He winked at her as he stopped at a red light. "Which way?"
She looked around. "Right and then turn off the highway on the Anderson."
"Seriously?"
"Yes. Why?"
"I live just off Anderson."
"And you've never been to Red Rock?"
"Hey! I haven't had a break since moving here."
He followed her directions and pointed out his house when they drove passed it. They were finally on the back roads. Vivi rolled her window down and Jon followed suit and hung his arm out the window letting the wind blow over him. He looked over at Vivi, she was looking out the window smiling.
"What are you thinking?"
"That we need music." She smiled at him.
He turned up the dial on the radio. "Better?"
She pointed to the radio. "May I?"
He waved at it. She laughed and took out her phone and hooked it up to the radio. Bad Moon Rising blared and he looked at her. Jon drummed his fingers on the wheel and Vivi danced around as they headed farther into the desert. They drove for another fifteen minutes until she pointed out a section of the road blocked off for parking.
"Damn this is high."
"Don't tell me you're afraid of heights?" She said when they reached the top of the mountain.
Jon laughed. "Never!"
They picked a spot and laid a blanket from his truck down. They talked about the most random things from the people he worked with to her job. She looked at her phone and stood up.
"In a hurry?"
She reached down her hand and he took it. "Not in a hurry to go anywhere. Look right over there." The strip light up super bright every light did a show. "They do this every Saturday at midnight. I didn't know it until my brothers and I were up here one night after a big fight and they went off. It was amazing."
"It is amazing." Jon wanted to kiss her she looked so damned cute. "Thanks for showing me."
"You're welcome."
