Celeste wakes to the sun shining through the window. Slowly she becomes aware of Seth's chest against her back and arm around her waist. She smiles, realizing the day and night before had not been a dream. This was real, they were married. She rolls onto her back and looks at her sleeping husband. She thinks back to last night. Seth had been the one to act like the nervous virgin. Celeste found it very sweet. They took their time gently exploring each other, relishing in the thought they had their whole lives together for things to keep getting better.
Seth opens his eyes and smiles. "Good morning Beautiful wife."
Celeste kisses him. "Good morning handsome husband."
"It's really real isn't it?" he asks.
"Yep." she replies. "Too late to have second thoughts now."
He hugs her tighter. "I am definitely NOT having second thoughts."
In mid-August, Dean was put out of action by Seth and Kane. The angle was in order to give Dean time away from WWE to shoot his first movie. He'd been given the day off for Seth and Celeste's wedding, then headed straight back to Vancouver.
During his absence from WWE programming, Celeste joined Roman in tormenting Seth. Seth and Roman were to have a match at Night of Champions on September 21st. The night before, however, Roman had to have emergency surgery to repair a hernia. Dean was scheduled back to make an appearance at the show. The idea was for Seth to issue an open challenge and Dean answer it. Celeste had a better idea though. She would answer Seth's challenge, then after the match reveal that Dean was back. In storyline, he'd refused medical treatment after Seth and Kane's beating, and been missing ever since.
Seth and Celeste snuggle in a private dressing room backstage. "At this point no one is shocked when you volunteer for a match." Seth proclaims.
"Let's be honest, the women's division is kinda crappy right now. So I'm making more of a name for myself fighting the boys." Celeste explains.
"True, but maybe the women's division needs you to rescue it." Seth suggests.
Celeste smiles. "And I will, in due time." She stands. "You know what?" she asks.
"What?" he inquires.
She walks over and locks the door. "I don't want to wait until later to wrestle you."
Seth chuckles, knowing what she's implying. Afterwards they lay breathless together. "I think we can call that match a draw." he says.
"We're both definitely winners." she responds.
There is a knock on the door and Joey Mercury calls, "Hey, we need you two in the ring to go over the match."
"We'll be right there." Celeste calls back.
They gather themselves and head for the door. Seth says, "I got an idea."
"What's that?" she asks.
"Since this match was a draw and I'm gonna win out in the ring…" He pushes her hair behind her ear. "How about when we get back to the hotel…" He whispers an innuendo in her ear. She bites her lip. He smirks. "That way you will be a winner."
Seth brags about putting Roman out of action and issues a challenge to "anyone in the back." Celeste music hits and she makes her way to the ring in wrestling gear. "What are you doing out here?" Seth asks.
She grabs a mic. "I'm out here for a match." she answers.
He laughs. "You wanna fight me?"
"No, Justin Roberts." she jokes. "You're the one who issued the challenge aren't you? Besides, it just seems right. Remember how I helped Roman retain the tag team championships when you were injured?"
"I see your point." she says. "This is a little different. You don't have any help, and I am way better than Daniel Bryan or Randy Orton."
Celeste rolls her eyes. "If you think it's going to be so easy to beat me, why not prove it?"
The crowd cheers. "Fine, let's do this." Seth finally relents.
During the match Seth backs Celeste into a corner and forcefully kisses her. She bites his lip causing him to back off. The crowd goes wild when she retaliates with a slap. The match ends when Celeste attempts to lock in the Death Star, but Seth manages to roll her up for a pin.
Seth celebrates to a choir of boos. Celeste gets a mic and says, "Great job."
"You put up a pretty good fight." Seth boasts.
"There is something I forgot to tell you though." she says. "Dean's no longer missing."
Just then Dean's music hits and the crowd goes wild. He and Seth brawl until security finally manages to restrain Dean.
Over the next few weeks Celeste and Dean continue to be a thorn in Seth's side. On one Smackdown Celeste stole the Money in the Bank briefcase. At the beginning of Raw, Seth demands it be returned. Celeste enters the ring and hands it over. "I'm sorry Seth." she says. "You should have this. It's really all you have now." She exits the ring leaving everyone perplexed.
At the end of the night, Seth attempts to cash in on current WWE World Heavyweight Champion John. As the ref is about to ring the bell Celeste comes out to the ramp. "Seth what are you doing?"
"I'm cashing in!" he yells.
"You weren't paying attention earlier were you? I told you, that briefcase is all you have right now." she states.
Seth grabs the case and opens it to see that it's empty. He grabs a mic. "Where's my contract? What the hell did you do with it?!"
"Don't worry it's safe." she replies. "And I will gladly give it back to you as soon as you earn it."
"I did earn it." he insists.
"Not on your own. You and Dean one-on-one and Hell in a Cell. You win and I will hand you that contract myself."
"Fine!" Seth snaps. "You're on." He drops the mic and turns around to receive an Attitude Adjustment from John.
It's the end of October and time for Hell in a Cell. "Ready to surprise folks again?" Seth asks his wife.
"Of course." she answers.
"I know that spot we did at Money in the Bank was big but…" He shakes his head. "I just didn't feel right about what you suggested doing tonight."
"I understand and I appreciate you looking out for me." she says. "I think story wise the change will work perfectly. There's gonna be a ton of emotion from tonight's events."
Dean enters the cell and Celeste scales the cage and climbs onto the roof. "Star, what the hell are you doing?" Dean yells.
"What is wrong with that girl?" JBL exclaims.
Seth makes his entrance with Kane, Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble.
"Celeste did tell Seth she wanted him to face Dean one-on-one." Cole explains.
"I told you Seth!" she screams down at him. "You and Dean! No help from them!" Celeste had suggested she dive off the cell onto Kane, Joey and Jamie. Seth decided to have her just threaten to dive off the cell and emotionally blackmail him into sending the Authority backstage.
"Get down!" Dean calls to her.
"He's insane and thinks this is crazy, doesn't that tell you something?" Seth reasons.
She ignores their pleas and makes a running start. "STOP!" Seth yells. "Fine! Just get down." He turns and tells the other men to leave. Celeste slowly climbs down as Seth and Dean are locked inside the cell.
