The Night Before
Sitting at one of the bars of the of the MGM Grand hotel in Las Vegas, Camdyn stirred her drink with the small plastic sword, that not long ago had had two cherries stuck on it. She couldn't be sure of the number of drinks she'd consumed, wanting to forget the whole night and go back to the life she'd known and loved before she walked in on her boyfriend in the hotel room they were sharing with not only another woman, but one of their co-workers. She'd backed out of the room as silently as she'd walked in and had been down in the bar ever since. Downing the last bit of alcohol in the glass she waved the bartender over as she looked around. A few of them she recognized as fellow wrestlers, other's were complete strangers, but the one that caught her eye was getting up from one of the tables and headed in her direction. As the bartender sat her drink in front of her and the guy sat in one of the barstools next to her, she threw all her inhibitions to the wind and did something she never would have had she been anything other than completely drunk. She started up a conversation with him.
"Hey Dave."
Looking up in slight shock, Dave could have sworn he was hearing things. There was no way that Camdyn Taite had just said hello to him. Neither of them had gotten along since the day she became a diva, the exact reason unknown to him if not the both of them. He'd been down in the bar since a few minutes before she had and seen her come storming in, and as far as he knew, both had been drinking rather steadily since then. Noticing her waiting for a reply, he shook his thoughts out of his head and nodded in her direction.
"Camdyn."
"Whatcha doing down here all alone, huh? I'da thought Ric or at least Randy would be around too." She asked, grinning at him flirtatiously, unsure about what had come over her all of the sudden.
"Same as you. Drinking my problems away." He said with a smirk, seeing if he could get a reaction. He knew he had when he saw the look of surprise come and go from her face quickly. With her instantaneous recovery the two kept the conversation and drinks flowing freely, gradually moving closer to each other. Tracing invisible circles on the back of his hand, she batted her eyelashes at him a few times, then looked up at him, leaning towards him, and said softly,
"How 'bout we get outta here and do something to take our minds off our problems?"
"Let's do that." Dave said, knowing what she was getting at. Throwing down some cash on the bar, he wrapped an arm around her waist and led her out of the bar, both thankful that they were able to walk properly, and waited for an elevator.

Waking up the next morning to the only sliver of light shining into the room directly in her eyes, Camdyn let out a soft groan. Trying to position herself to get the light out of her face as the throbbing in her head worsened she shut her eyes tightly and made an attempt to remember the night before, knowing it was most likely something she'd regret. That's when reality sunk in. She'd caught Jason in bed with Maria and headed straight for the bar instead of confronting the both of them. Then she felt the arm draped across her waist, and suddenly the headache wasn't enough to keep her from opening her eyes. Looking underneath the sheet that was covering her up, her worst fears were confirmed, she was wearing absolutely nothing.
"Oh god. Please tell me I didn't come back up here and sleep with him after what I saw." She whispered to herself, trying to get up the courage to look at the other occupant of the bed. It was then she noticed, as she glanced around the room quickly, that she wasn't even in her own room. She was sure of this because she'd left her suitcase sitting under the window sill, and it had clearly never been there. Groaning again she slowly turned to see who was laying next to her, but nothing she could have done could've prepared her for what she saw.
Laying next to her was who she considered to be one of the most arrogant men in the WWE today. Laying next to her was none other than Dave Batista. Her immediate reaction was to grab the sheet and jump out of the bed. Pacing in front of the window she leaned against the wall and slowly sunk to the floor, pushing the strand of strawberry blonde hair that had fallen in her eyes away. Shaking her head slowly and staring around the room blankly, she asked herself in disbelief,
"What the hell did you do? And why the hell did it have to be him?" By now, Dave was starting to stir, the extra warmth her body had brought to the bed now gone. Hearing the noise coming from somewhere deep in his throat and watching him run a hand over his face sleepily, Camdyn pulled the sheet tighter around her body and stayed right where she was. With the bright, early morning sun now shining in his eyes, he closed them quickly, before opening them again and looking in the direction of the windows. That's when he noticed Camdyn.
"What the hell are you doing in my room?" He asked, the hang over making him less pleasant than she found him to be normally.
"Great. I'm not the only one who remembers jack shit from last night. Well at least I know you didn't just see a drunken girl and decide to see how easy it'd be to get her in bed. That's new for you." She replied icily as she got up, attempting to search for her clothes. Feeling eyes on her, she smirked, knowing without looking that he was glaring at her.
"As if it would have been that hard to get you in bed, drunk or not."
"Fuck off. You're the last person that needs to be lecturing me on sleeping around, Mr. 'A Different Girl Every Night of the Week'."
"You're really in no position to start the name calling. Aren't you the one who just cheated on your boyfriend?" He asked, sitting up in bed and watching her rummage around the room, her dress, bra and shoes in hand. Seeing a tiny, light pink thong the same color as the bra in her hand laying on the floor he pulled on his boxers and grabbed it with one finger. Holding it up with a smirk on his face he asked,
"Looking for this?" Turning and seeing her thong dangling from his finger she walked over to him and grabbed it from him while growling,
"Ass. And just so you know, I didn't cheat. Jason and I are over... He might not be aware of it yet, but we are." Not giving him a chance to respond she walked into the bathroom, slamming the door shut as soon as she was inside. Dave's smirk only grew wider, happy with the fact he'd managed to get under her skin further.
In the bathroom, Camdyn pulled her clothes on, wanting to get out of his room as soon as she possibly could. Running her fingers through her hair, trying to make it look presentable enough for her to walk down the hall, she tried to remember more about the night that was still so unclear to her. Sliding on the long peasant skirt that was almost the same color as her bra and underwear and pulling on her white tank top, she slipped her white flip flops on her feet when she realized she didn't have her purse or jacket. Growling, she knew she was going to have to face Dave again, and yanked the bathroom door open.
Not saying a word to him, she scanned the room to see the rest of her things sitting on top of the dresser and made a beeline for them. As she grabbed her purse a piece of folded up paper fell out and onto the floor. Letting out an irritated sigh, she bent down and picked it up. Not knowing how it'd gotten into her purse in the first place, she unfolded it and scanned it quickly. By the time her eyes had made it to the bottom, she was standing there, mouth hanging open slightly, not able to move.
Watching her as she stood there, looking dumbfounded, Dave looked on as the piece of paper fell back to the floor. Rolling his eyes, he crossed the room and bent down to pick it up. Finally Camdyn managed to utter an 'Oh my god' and this only furthered his curiosity. Reading it he soon found out what the 'big deal' was. In his hand he was holding a marriage license. A marriage license with his and Camdyn's names on it. Staring at it, then at her in shock he stated simply,
"Oh shit."
A/N: Alright... so there's the first chapter and I can't help but say how glad I am to be back on here. I know it's been a long time but, hopefully I'll start posting again regualrly. That's my goal at least. So please, let me know what you thought of it and leave a review. They're much appreciated.
