For the average person walking around a humongous college campus in 102 degree weather while dressed up in a pair of pink kitten high heels would be some sort of a mood killer but for the perky redhead Maria Kanellis it surely wasn't.

The three month long wait Maria faced until she could step foot back on Covington university's campus was complete torture, all the parties, the boys, people, on campus activities, even some of the lectures were extremely missed. The woman let out a happy sigh while brushing the red locks that were flying in front of her face, in reaction to the wind; quickly she tucked them firmly behind her ear to see more clearly at her surroundings.

The pine trees that were rooted so firmly into the ground were swaying alongside the green grass sitting beneath it. There were so many joyful faces that were either staring down at their booklets to find their dormitories or those that went looking for friends to start reconnecting early.

All the redhead had to do was turn her head to see her best friend Eve Torres walking beside her with suitcases both in her hands or strapped onto her right shoulder.

"Why is it so hot today? It was only supposed to be 98." Eve sighed, blowing a few brunette curls that were momentarily obscuring her view.

"Why are you complaining? You're wearing shorts and a tank top; there are some idiots around here wearing pants and sleeved shirts."

"Maria, just because I was smart enough to wear less clothing doesn't mean I'm not hot…" a soft giggle came out of her lips as she continued rolling her suitcase along the pavement.

The redhead bit down on her bottom lip before she spoke, "I'm so excited for this year… I feel like a better more refreshed me."

"Well I'm happy for you, but you and I both know you're just happy because you know Phillip is now a single man because he and Barbie broke up over summer break."

The pair exchanged eye contact with two completely different expressions, Eve had a little bit of a head nod and smirk justifying that she knew she was right while Maria just stood there without a word to say because although she didn't want Eve to know the truth, she did.

Suddenly the conversation was uplifted by a young blonde bombshell coming up behind them that goes by the name of Barbie. "Wow, could you two walk any slower?"

The two quickly shifted their heads over to the girl standing behind her with smiles spread across their broad and beautiful features.

Everyone quickly released the multiple bags that they were carrying to pull each other into a friendly, embrace while exchanging soft and clever greetings. The trio made their way through campus, looking for each other's dorms while exchanging a few stories and giggles.


With feet put up on the coffee table Mike laid back on his comfy sofa and looked around at the room that was properly set up around him, a smirk was proudly stretched across his remarkable features as he took a sip of the opened mountain dew can that had recently been placed in his hand.

Mike, or as he likes to be called, The Miz, stared down at the laptop that was steadily sitting on his lap and scrolled down the social media webpage with a small smile. A few hours into the school year and he's already got a list of the girls that he's planning to hook up with, already he knew this was going to be a good year.

First on his list was the French Canadian beauty, Maryse Ouellet. Around noon he saw her step out of her mother's convertible with her blonde hair flowing off of her broad shoulders, she was dressed in a fluorescent peach tank top and a pair of denim shorts, some would argue they were too short but Mike would beg to differ that they were just short enough.

He'd couldn't help but feel a strong level of chemistry flowing between them, when his eyes matched with hers he could see deep in her eyes that she was as attracted to him as he was to her.

And let's be honest, Mike thought to himself while looking into the mirror that was hanging on the wall across of the room; I am looking pretty good today.

Then there was Rosa Mendez, she was a sexy firecracker in her own way. Who could forget the last party of 2012; Mike and Rosa found themselves on the dance floor firing it up. The music was pumping and their bodies were close, the pair was in perfect rhythm with the techno music that was playing loudly in the background.

The Latina spent the remainder of the dance grinding on her opponent while kissing up his neck aggressively and then the night began to grow into something more for the two of them, something very dirty but at the same time very enjoyable.

The opening of the door broke off the young man's thoughts for the time being; when he looked up he saw three faces staring at him that knew there was definitely something on his mind due to the smirk that has yet to be removed from his face.

"Is there something we interrupted, buddy?" A smile was spread across Phillips face as he walked in and grabbed a couple of sodas from the mini-fridge.

"No, you didn't." Mike took the moment before he would continue to close his laptop and set it on the coffee table that his feet were just laying on; he looked up at the two women that were currently leaning against his door frame with a slight smile, "Hello Eve, Maria."

Eve let out a gentle smile and a soft hello while Maria said nothing at all, she wasn't trying to be rude but she simply didn't hear him from her concentration being glued on the man standing at the other side of the room. Noticing what was on the redhead's mind Miz couldn't help but to smirk to himself as he got out of his seat and walked over to the pair.

Feeling a nudge on her shoulder from her friend, Maria removed her eyes from the tatted man that was standing opposite of her; she let out a soft sigh and looked over at Mike.

Noticing that devious smirk of his, Maria scoffed out and rolled her eyes, "What is up with you? Did you eat some bad sushi or something; you look funny."

A chuckle released from the man's lips as his smirk enlarged, he took a moment to lean over against the wall while looking her up and down, "You seem a bit distracted, don't you Maria… Why is that?"

Maria squinted her green eyes and glared at him in a somewhat threatening way, "No, no…I'm not distracted, I'm just tired I assume." The glare between the two ended as Phillip came out of the corner and spoke his part;

"But Maria, you said ten minutes ago that you were so hyper you could run a marathon,"

"Oh, I guess it was just a sugar rush…I had a lot of Twizzlers on the ride here."

"Understandable, Twizzlers are addictive, it's like you just can't put them down."

"Yeah, it is like that, isn't it?" The tone of Mike's voice as he jumped in was sadistic, it was just an act, he liked to scare the redhead a little for her to think that he would spill her secret about her ridiculous crush on his roommate Phillip, but he wasn't going to that, he just liked to intimidate those around him, especially the two girls that were currently standing in his doorway.

"Yeah, well…I'm going to go to my room and unpack a bit-" Maria warned as she quickly tried to change the subject before things escalated. "Eve, are you coming?"

"Do I have too? I'm not in the mood for unpacking boxes."

Observing the motions that the brunette was conducting Mike cut into the conversation once again, he was really good at that; "Well Eve if you were hungry me and Phil were thinking about going out to Wendy's or something if you'd like to tag along."

"That sounds great, are you sure you guys don't mind?"

"Well, I don't…How about you Phil?" Turning his head, Mike looked over at his friend with a smile while he grabbed his keys off of the counter top smoothly, as Phillip agreed with a nod and a simple 'yes' answer Eve jumped up a little bit with a small smile before she walked out side by side with the pair leaving Maria to watch from a distance with a soft frown, with eyes locked onto the man walking with his hands in his pocket and his hood resting upon his head, finally she came to the decision on making a u-turn to head back to her dorm.


"So, I think you got worse at this whole shooting pool, thing." Dolph smiled at his current opponent as he put more blue chalk at the end of his cue tip.

"Well, I'm not the one who had his own pool table in his living-room since age nine." The brunette let out a soft giggle as she took another shot at the cue-ball, just like predicted, AJ wasn't anywhere close to sinking any in, with a smug smirk and loose nonchalant shrug Dolph finished the game while bending over to shot the last remaining balls into their pockets.

"Yea, you're right. You didn't have a chance, I'm just too good."

"Well at least you're confident."

"Mhm, so have you eaten lunch yet? If not maybe you and I could go out t-" Suddenly his eyes became out of focus as he caught a glimpse that was turned into a stare of the woman walking through the lobby.

A smile came across his lips as he watched Barbie walking through with a florescent flowery dress and her blonde curls ran off of her bronze shoulders all that could come across the usually smooth-talking guy was the thought of how absolutely beautiful she looked and how much he missed her over summer break.

AJ, who stood across from him, watched his gestures and expressions that were newly changed, a sigh let out of her lips as she watched the way he looked at the most popular and beautiful girl that walked on Covington campus. Every guy in her grade all wanted the same thing which was Barbie, someone who truly fit under the definition of dream girl.

The thing is, April didn't care what any other guy wanted, and all she cared about was what the guy standing across from her thought. The pair shared everything with one another, all except the feelings that were currently bottled up about one Mr. Dolph Ziggler.

Dolph was the first person that AJ had met at Covington; she remembered it clearly as if it was yesterday.

-XxX-

As she stepped out of her vehicle she noticed him alongside to other young men, Randy Orton and John Cena, the trio were walking in a distance behind her smiling and cutting up.

Not thinking much about it April opened her trunk and took out two suitcases and three carryon bags. For anyone with AJ's height and size carrying two heavy suitcases was trouble enough, a sigh released from her newly glossed lips while struggling to pick up more than one bag simultaneously.

Stumbling along while dropping suitcases left and right the brunette noticed two men walking ahead of her still with heavy chuckles and endless smiles but something was off…where was the remaining member that was walking beside them not even a minute ago, her thoughts were broken as she heard someone behind her clearing his throat in a signaling way.

"Need any help there?"

A soft smile pursed across AJ's lips while debating on if she should shake her head or just go along with it and nod, of course help was needed but she wasn't the one to ask for it…But at the same time she didn't ask, he confronted her, and it'd be rude to turn him away, right?

The rambling going on in her head was cut short as she slightly nodded and thanked the young man in front of her while allowing him to take away three of the bags.

"So do you usually carry random girl's bags for them?"

Chuckling at that question, Dolph shook his head before continuing the conversation, "No, I haven't… but to be fair I've never seen a 90 pound girl carrying 5 bags that were twice her size."

Giggling alongside him, AJ brushed a few locks out of her face before changing her viewpoint from the pavement ahead of her to the Blondie standing beside her.

"Hey, I'm not that tiny, you know…"

"Of course not, if you're not tiny then I'm Clark Kent."

"Well it's fancy to meet you Clark, I'm a huge fan."

"It's a pleasure to meet you too, baby cakes."

-XxX-

"Did you hear the news?" Snapping away from those thoughts, AJ turned her head over to her friend as he went on and on, "Barbie and Phil finally broke up, I know I shouldn't be so happy about that, but I can't help it, I'm ecstatic."

"Well, I'm happy for you…So, are you going to ask her out?" Trying not to make her jealousy obvious the Latina put on a fake smile, a smile so fake that if Dolph wasn't currently setting his complete and total focus on the blonde bombshell walking through the room he could have easily noticed something wrong, but lucky for AJ, he didn't.

"I don't know, I mean, she's not one of those girls that you can walk up to her and easily get, she's different…"

Rolling her eyes to that slightly AJ let out a swift nod and sighed, "Yea, I got that…but hey, I'm going to go back to my room, I need to unpack my last suitcase."

"Well what about lunch?"

"I guess I'm just not hungry, I really need to unpack."

"Ok, well see you later baby cakes."

A sigh was released as she put down her cue stick before finishing the conversation with a simple 'Yea, I'll see ya.'
