Unhappily Tied
Vince dropped Shawn off at Smackdown the next day personally, making sure he was safely in Dave Batista's arms before leaving.
"You'll be good won't you?" he'd asked softly.
"Yeah I will." Shawn told him with a small smile. Vince had ruffled his hair fondly and left.
"Come on Shawn, let's get you settled." Dave suggested, leading Shawn into the hotel and up to the room they were now sharing. Shawn was suprised when he'd met the man's sub.
"Hi Shawn." the smaller man greeted the man who had trained him.
"Good to see you again Brian. How have you been?" Shawn asked the young Cruiserweight.
"Good, Teddy gave me and Pauly the WWE Tag Team Championships." Brian said proudly, holding up his belt.
"I heard, congratulations. You and Paul were two of my favorate students." Shawn told him, hugging the man.
"And you were our favorate teacher. Even when your mom came in and yelled at you." Brian joked.
"You remember that?!" Shawn asked.
"Of course I remember that. 'SHAWN MICHAEL HICKENBOTTOM, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING IN THAT RING?! YOU KNOW THAT THE DOCTORS SAID!' It was hilarious." Brian imitated Shawn's mother's voice perfectly.
"That was so embarassing. In front of the whole class." Shawn groaned.
"It didn't stop you from doing it again though."
"No. No it didn't." Shawn laughed.
"I'll just let you two catch up then shall I?" Dave asked, sitting down on the bed with a book.
