A/N: I know I shouldn't be publishing anything new, but I couldn't resist and I had to write this idea. After watching Dolph/AJ kissing for the first time and then the cat-fight between Kailtlyn/AJ, my muses begged me to write it. For now, it's going to be an one-shot. Let's see what happens next and maybe then I'll have a second chapter. I'm sorry for the spelling and grammar mistakes. English isn't my first language.

Read & Review ;)

Just Give Me a Reason

"I thought she was my best friend". The thought repeated itself over and over again inside Kaitlyn's distressed mind. In less than two weeks the woman she had once called best friend betrayed her more than once. Their friendship was slowly collapsing until a point that there was no turning back; there was anything to save.

The stir between the two had begun during the night the Slammy Awards were handed in front of a crowd of thousand people. What had happened on the stage between those two wasn't written on the script. The freaking kiss wasn't written on the script! It wasn't supposed to happen.

Back then, a speechless Kaitlyn stared at the television screen. Her eyes had to be deceiving her. She had to be watching a different show from everyone else. There couldn't be another explanation. She couldn't have just seen April Lee - her Chickbuster partner and best friend since their NXT days - kissing Dolph Ziggler - her one-year and half boyfriend. It was freaking impossible. Or was it possible? It had just happened, so it had to be possible. AJ simply jumped and wrapped her legs around her boyfriend and then out of the blue she kissed him.

How could she have kissed him if the freaking kiss wasn't on the script? Unless the creative team had made last-hour changes on the script - a very usual situation -, the younger woman owed her an explanation. And, AJ wasn't the only one: Dolph owed her a long elucidation too. Did he know about the kiss and didn't tell her anything?

As soon as Kaitlyn twisted her body to look for the "couple", she felt she was overreacting. Why did the situation bother her so much? Not only had she seen Dolph kissing Vickie before as she had kissed another guy as well. Nevertheless, she had to do it not to go against the creative team. She didn't resolve to do it out of nowhere.

The number-one contender to the Diva's championship wasn't a jealous woman… usually. No woman would approve another chick flirting with her man under her eyes without feeling jealous.

Without thinking twice, Kaitlyn confronted AJ when the two met in the backstage area for the first time after the disagreeable segment. The Hybrid Diva wasn't fond of quarrels - she was more than glad to avoid one. Hopefully, AJ would have a reasonable explanation to give her and their friendship would remain intact.

- What happened out there? - Kaitlyn queried, after dragging AJ to an empty room where they wouldn't be interrupted by anyone. She didn't need to explain what "out there" meant. It was clear as crystal that she was speaking about the kiss. The self-proclaimed Geek Goddess didn't need a clarification.

Before questioning AJ, the angry girlfriend had spoken with Dolph. He had told her that he had nothing to do with what had happened on the stage just a few minutes ago. The platinum blonde man was clueless about the kiss until the moment it occurred. He was supposed to be there to defend Vickie and ended up being caught off guard by AJ - of course being caught off guard didn't mean he couldn't have pushed the woman away from him.

By no means was Dolph an innocent man. Kaitlyn was very aware of the fact - more conscious than she would like to be. However, as bizarre as his explication was, she had to believe his word in this situation. No one was expecting the kiss to happen.

- Is it about the kiss? Kat, I'm just trying to help your boyfriend. With me at his side, he is finally going to be a champ for more than a few hours. Don't you want it to happen? - AJ had a huge smile etched across her face.

A doubtful Kaitlyn raised her eyebrow. Help? How was shoving her tongue down Dolph's throat going to help him? Maybe if he was feeling breathless she could have aided him. And, even then it wouldn't be easy for him to breathe with AJ's tongue inside his mouth.

How was he going to win a championship with AJ at his side? Yes, she had been part of major story-lines. Nonetheless, she wasn't part of the creative team and she clearly wasn't Vince. She didn't decide who the next champion would be.

- Don't be mad at me, Bonin. - She bit her tongue not to say a word. The younger woman appeared to be genuinely sorry. Her action was with good intentions.

The next morning when Kaitlyn woke up her thoughts settled on the matter that obsessed her so much the previous night. Perhaps the kiss between Dolph and AJ wouldn't have bothered her so much if it had been a proposal from the WWE creative team. But the idea came from her supposed friend's twisted mind.

Of course after AJ's kiss, the WWE creative team made a few changes and now AJ and Dolph were an on-screen couple. Kaitlyn wasn't fond of the idea. She would rather see he paired up with another woman. Couldn't he be put back with Vickie? She would rather see him kiss any other Diva than AJ. After all, AJ was her best friend. No woman wanted to see her boyfriend making out with her best friend. Especially if the idea had came from the best friend's head. Kaitlyn didn't want to see it happening on-screen and she surely didn't want to see it happening off-screen.

Lately, AJ had started acting more crazy outside the ring than inside. She wasn't the same woman she had met back in 2010. Since then, the two Divas had always had a strong friendship. With the younger woman stranger behavior, the friendship was slowly being thrown away.

For the sake of their friendship, the NXT winner decided not to dwell too much about the kiss. Unfortunately, just a day after the incident, she found AJ speaking with Dolph backstage and the unthinkable happened.

The time seemed to stop. One thing was to see those two kissing on the show because they were supposed to be boyfriend and girlfriend. Another thing was to catch them kissing in the backstage area. Kaitlyn's first thought was that Dolph fooled her. But then she saw with her own eyes the man pushing AJ away from him.

- What are you doing? Why did you do that? - Two times in a row she kissed him out nowhere. Staring at them, Kaitlyn wondered if Dolph still though she was overreacting.

- We have to practice. - An innocence look was etched across AJ's features. - We must look real for the show. I don't want to ruin out storyline.

- It's better if this doesn't happen again.

- I'm so sorry. - She tried to hug Dolph, but this time he was ready and moved before she did it. AJ quickly recovered from it and her lips formed a huge grin. - I'm just happy for spending time with my best friend's guy. I never thought you would make it. Not after the Derrick situation.

- The Derrick situation? - Dolph gave voice to Kaitlyn's thoughts.

How could AJ do it? The "Derrick situation"? What Derrick situation? There was no Derrick situation as the younger woman exclaimed out loud. They were just friends. Nothing more, nothing else.

AJ knew that Dolph wasn't fond of the other man - Kaitlyn never understood Dolph's reasons to dislike Bateman - and for some odd reason he was all against their NXT storyline. She certainly didn't put an end to their friendship because of Dolph's behavior. But they didn't spend much time together as they did before.

- I thought Kaitlyn told you. Well, it's nothing important. I must go find her. We have segment to tape.

The Hybrid Diva was closer of AJ than she thought and she had overhears every single word shared between her and Dolph. April Lee was a dead woman.

The Houston native took a long and deep breath. After the latest events, she was feeling her head pounding. She felt so betrayed. It seemed AJ was trying to ruin her relationship.

- Don't you have something to tell me? - Kaitlyn folded her arms. AJ sent a puzzled glance in her direction. - What happened between you and Dolph? - Another mystified look. The girl was pushing her buttons. - I know you and Dolph kissed near the men's locker room.

By AJ's new expression, she wasn't expecting it. Her eyes became watery. A tear rolled down her face. Kaitlyn rolled her eyes. AJ hurt her. AJ betrayed her. AJ played her. She was the one who should be crying.

- Kat, I don't know how to tell you this… - Angling her head, she stared at the floor. Was she showing repentance?

- You can always try. - It couldn't be that difficult to confess that she had kissed her boyfriend. After all, she caught them in the act. Of course she didn't make her presence noticed. Nevertheless, her eyes saw what they saw and her brain wasn't going to forget it any time soon. How could she forget her best friend's betrayal?

- Dolph kissed me. When I asked him why he did it, he said we needed to practice. I'm so sorry Kat. - The body fitness model's jaw almost dropped. AJ had to be mocking her. - Now we know that he never was the right guy for you.

Dolph kissed her? As far as she could see AJ wrapped her tentacles around her boyfriend's neck and kissed him. Not the other way around. If she hadn't seen Dolph pushing her away, yes, she would believe Dolph was guilt. He could be lying to her since the beginning and she was too blind to see and accept it. But she had seen it and heard the short exchange of words between them after the unpleasant event.

AJ lied right into her face. She would lie if told that she expected someone she trusted so much to trick her.

- Are you two ready? - Two set of eyes swerved their direction to one of the cameramen. - C'mon girls, we have a segment to tape.

Kaitlyn lost her opportunity to tell AJ that she knew the truth; she knew who kissed who. Her lies wouldn't deceive her.

It was just segment. Unfortunately the cat-fight became more real than fake. AJ was provoking her. Kaitlyn found herself pulling tresses of hair and not pretending she was doing it. She wasn't crazy and she could swear that heard AJ whispering to her ear that Dolph was a good kisser while they were "fighting".

Her friendship with AJ was following a rough path and sooner than later it would come to an abrupt end. Wait... hadn't it came already to an unexpected end? She couldn't be friend with someone who was trying to destroy her relationship and to steal her boyfriend.

Kaitlyn didn't know what was going on with AJ, but it would be better for everyone if she simply stayed away from Dolph when the lights of stage turned off - unfortunately, it would be impossible to keep her hands out of him during the shows.

And, most important, she should stay away from the Texan woman as well or hell would break loose… again.
