Candy Coated Affection
Chapter One: … For you to find out
Note: This is my first time writing at FanFiction - some ideas for my next chapter, or some advice would be much appreciated! I'll hopefully be able to write my next chapter next week, if all goes well.
It was a dark and rainy afternoon, and driving in the rain was Candice's least favourite thing to do. The World Wrestling Entertainment Diva was traveling from the Raleigh-Durham International Airport to her hotel in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina for an upcoming RAW live taping show at the RBC Center. She had just been in Roanoke, Virginia the night before for a non-televised houseshow, and although her broken clavicle was almost fully healed, and she itching to be able to compete in the shows, not just watch from the sidelines. The squared circle was where all the action was, and Candice was ready to jump back into the excitement and experience the thrilling feeling she would always get when she walked out into the arena, her theme song playing loud and the lights shining on her.
As she drove into the parking lot of the Sheraton Raleigh Capitol Center Hotel, she noticed several rental cars already parked, and knew she was not the first to arrive. She parked her car and stepped out onto the wet pavement in her dark purple Juicy Couture terrycloth tracksuit. As she started lifting her suitcase and bags out of the truck, she suddenly felt a pair of hands under her suitcase, helping her place it on the ground. She turned around, a little startled, and realized it was WWE Superstar Jeff Hardy, who wrestled on the Smackdown! brand.
"JEFF!" she shouted out, and wrapping her arms around his neck, giving him a huge hug she was unknowingly famous for. Just over two weeks earlier, the youngest Hardy brother had been drafted from the RAW brand to the Smackdown! brand. Candice, who had first become acquainted to Jeff during his return to the flagship brand, grew close to him, and they had been pretty good friends ever since.
"Candice, I've missed you! You need to keep in touch," Jeff told her, jokingly sounding mad. She released her arms from around his neck and they stared into each others eyes, smiling.
"Sorry, darling," answered Candice, "I've just been in meetings with Vince and some creative members, and doing some touring and whatnot. I'm sorry!" She smiled wider and cocked her head sideways. "But what on earth are YOU doing here? SD is taping on Tuesday in Charlotte and there's a live show in Asheville tonight. Not exactly walking distance from here!"
"Well," Jeff began replying, wrapping an arm around Candice and taking one of her bags in his other hand, "that's for me to know, and you to find out!"
