The Zack Mercer Story: Book 2
Chapter 1: A Mistake
Monday, October 10th, 2016 - Survivor Series: 41 Days - Sacramento, California
The 2-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, laid in the bed of the hotel room by his lonesome as he stared up at the ceiling evaluating his mistake. The adrenaline finally wore off and he could think nothing more then how he happened to mess up with his relationship. And sleeping with another woman wasn't something that was going to fix his relationship. He rolled over onto his side where he saw Jo looking out of the window with a worried frown on her face.
"Jo-" He tried to say but she quickly cut him off.
"No. It was a mistake. A mistake I should never let happen. So do me a favor and please forget all about it. We can keep being friends but we can never talk about this night." She said in her robe as she quickly walked away from the window and to the bathroom where she slammed the door after herself.
James sighed before he cursed silently at himself.
"Took the words right out of my mouth." He muttered to himself. He put his jeans on from last night before he picked up his phone that lay on the nightstand beside him. He picked up the phone and started to scroll through his notifications. He kept scrolling until he reached the notification with Lexi's name next to it. He pressed down on the text to see what he wanted to see.
"Drew, I think that we need to talk. We've both have done somethings that we can't take back but I think we can get over this. Please call me back when you get this." He read the text making him smile before he quickly was able to press the calll button.
He stood up and walked towards the window while he had his phone and waited for the call to go through. Luckily she picked up and he heard the voice that he wanted to hear.
"Hey Lexi." He said with a smile.
"Hey Drew, We need to talk." She said.
"I know. I know and as soon as I get to San Jose then we can talk."
"Okay but try to not to kiss anyone until then." She joked making him give off a stiff laugh.
"Bye Lexi." He said as he then hung up the phone. He put his hands on his side before he looked down at the ground with that same smile on his face.
Minutes Later
James had pulled up to the Oracle Arena with JoJo sitting in the passenger seat while he had his Intercontinental Championship sitting on the dashboard. He had been thinking about what he would say to Lexi the entire time whenever he got to see her and talk to her. He would make little conversation with JoJo whenever it got too quiet in the car. Even after their mistake last night it was good to know that they could still be friends and it made James think about alll of his relationships he made in the WWE.
"Ah, I hate this arena." James said as he opened the door and exited the car.
"I know you do you always talk about it especially when we used to watch those warriors games." Jo said with a smile on her face as she remembered the old times
"Yeah, the good days when we could just sit back and watch as the sports world just passed us on by. Now it seems like all eyes are on me." James said as he turned his attention to JoJo.
"Well, as the dubbed future of the WWE what do you expect?"
"Certainly not this. I feel like if I screw up it's my career."
"But this is what you dreamed of. Being the face of a company. You're not yet the face of the company but you might as well be."
"Dammit, when did you get so smart?" He asked rhetorically.
"James, I need you to make me a promise."
"And that is."
"Make up with Lexi and this time around don't lose her."
"You don't have to worry about that, I'm in love with her and I'm determined to make it work." James said as he grabbed JoJo's luggage out of his trunk and looked down at the short one.
"Bye James." JoJo said before they gave each other a hug. She then walked away from James while he stood there and watched as she walked away. He shook his head with a smile on his face before he walked around his car and opened the door before he entered.
