So here's chapter 2; enjoy!
"If everyone could fasten their seatbelts, we will be arriving at our destination in five minutes." Calah's head peeked up as she heard the pilot's voice through the speakers. She set her magazine down to the suprisingly empty seat beside her and buckled her seatbelt before resting her head back.
This is it. This is where her new life was going to begin, and she had come to grips that she'd either love it, or hate it. She was beyond nervous to meet the people she'd be working with. They were basically celebrities and she was..a girl who had no idea what she wanted. It was intimidating for her, to say the least.
Once he plane had landed, she stood up from her seat and grabbed her carry on, slinging it over her shoulder and shuffling in with the line of people attempting to leave the plane. Once she got to the arena where the wrestlers would be performing, she'd have to talk to the people who were supposed to hire her and find out what exactly it was she'd be doing.
Once off the plane, she approached the baggage claim and waited for the many bags she had taken with her on this trip. She looked over her shoulder, thankful that the airport had people to help with baggage. The man kindly took two of her bags while she took the other two, walking through the airport. Though she quickly stopped as she saw a man with a sign and her name on that sign. They were that nice to their employees that they sent a driver for a simple photographer?
She shrugged and approached the driver, "I'm Calah." She smiled in greeting.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Calah. I'll be taking you to the arena." He smiled in return, taking the bags from the man who hoped he'd get tipped for carrying the bags to the car.
"Thank you." She retorted, following the driver out to the car. The trunk poppped open and in she put the bags before she climbed into the taxi, leaning back. Her back pressed against the seat as the car accelerated and she chewed nervously on the inside of her cheek, glancing out the window.
She wondered how long it'd be until she gave up on this job too. She sighed in thought and tapped her fingers on the cup holder beside her. Thinking wasn't going to do her any good at this point. She already had the job and was already on the way to meet the big bosses and there was no turning back now. The thought of being serious about something frightened her and what scared her the most was thinking that now that she was in this thing, she was in it forever.
Her thoughts were interrupted as the car stopped, already at the arena. "We're here, Ms. Hill. I'll be dropping your bags off at the hotel and a rental will be sent your way with the key to your room in the car."
Wow. "Okay, thank you very much." She smiled and then slid out of the car, staring up at the arena. She took a deep breath before allowing her feet to move towards it, pushing open the big doors. Her heart fluttered and her stomach flipped with anxiety. She hated how up and down she was about everything.
Following signs that read, 'McMahon's office,' she was led to where she needed to be. Lifting her hand and curling it into a fist, she knocked a few times on the door and stood back, glancing back to see numerous people walking down the hallway. She didn't know who any of them were. Were they the wrestlers? The Refs? The other photographers? The camera crew?
The door opened and there stood a beautiful woman, tall with brown hair and dressed in a woman's suit. From behind her came a really beefy man with short, almost Calah's color blonde hair.
"You must be Calah, I'm Stephanie and this is my husband Paul." She held out her hand, a smile shining on her pink lips.
Calah placed her hand in Stephanie's and gave a firm shake, "That's me." She brightly smiled. "It's a pleasure to meet both of you." She then held her hand out to the man known as Paul which she gave the same firm shake to.
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well." Paul replied, "Steph, I'll let you handle this. I gotta get some of this paperwork done with." He told his wife, turning back into the office room.
Stephanie stepped out, closing the door behind her and she held her hand out in front of her, indicating for Calah to start walking, which she indeed did. "So you're our new photographer, huh?"
"Yup! Thank you for the job. I'm really excited to be working with you guys." She smoothly lied, hoping it wouldn't be too see through.
"It's our pleasure. Shawn had said you seemed passionate about the job and well..our business derives off passion." She retorted with a smile.
Calah sighed quietly in relief, "Well, I hope I can fulfill what you guys want and need from me." She said to the woman she was walking beside.
"I'm sure you will, Calah. We'd like to first start you off backstage. We want you to get shots of the superstars and diva's preparing for their matches and pictures of them during their promo's. I know it's simple, but we want to first see how you work before we start putting you in the action around the ring." Stephanie explained to the blonde.
Simple? Calah didn't even know who the hell the superstar's or divas were. Let alone what a promo was. "Right. Sounds easy enough." She hesitantly replied.
"I'll get you introduced to some of the guys." She laughed, pointing to a board as they passed it. "That will be placed by the curtain every event so you'll know who to find and who to photograph." She explained.
Calah's eyes glanced at the chalkboard and she nodded her head in response, following Stephanie to an area with a large amount of food.
"This is catering, where you'll find most of our men and women." She smirked.
"Who's this?" A deep voice rang from behind both women.
The two turned to be greeted by a young looking man clad in jeans and a t-shirt.
"Hey, Randy. This is our newest addition to the family. She's one of the new photographers." Stepahnie introduced her.
"I'm Calah." She held out her hand which he took in return, firmly shaking her hand.
"Pleasure to meet you, I'm Randy." He smiled to her. "And..I'd love to stay and get to know you better, but I am starving." He chuckled, winking to the women before stepping past them.
"I told you so." Stephanie laughed.
Wow. He was..beautiful. Calah laughed in response, "I have a feeling I might too." She teased, looking towards Stephanie.
She smiled in response, "Alright. Well..I'll let you get a look around, meet a few new people and get used to the vibe here. It was great meeting you, Calah. Any problems you have, you come to me, okay?"
Calah nodded her head, "Got it." She then turned her head as three men walked in dressed in the same attire Randy was in.
"Boys!" Stephanie called, the three walking their way over towards her and Calah. "I'd like you to meet our new photographer, Calah Hill." The three boys smiled in greeting and Stephanie pointed each one out. "This is Roman." She said, indicating the big guy with the long black hair. "Dean." She pointed to the one in the middle, about an inch taller than the previous guy with short, messy hair. "And Seth." She then pointed to the last one with two toned color hair. One side was black while the other was bleached blonde.
"It's nice to meet you." The last one, Seth, bowed his head towards her.
"It's nice to meet you too." She retorted. They were all so perfect looking too!
"I've told Calah to run off and meet a few of the people and get used to the area, but would one of you mind showing her around?" Stephanie asked.
Seth was the first one to pipe up, "I will. The other guys are gonna run to the gym." He nodded his head towards Roman and Dean.
"Thank you, Seth. I'll see you boys around. You too Calah." And with that, Stephanie was gone.
Seth nodded his head towards the small girl in which she followed him down the hall. "Welcome to WWE. I'm pretty sure you'll love it here." He welcomed her with a smile.
And she was slowly beginning to think she was going to love it here.
Hope ya liked it!
Tell me what you thought! :3
