Alanna leaned back in the chair, watching the small monitor that sat on a table nearby, her Converses kicked haphazardly by the open door to the medic's office. The medic left an hour before, told her that nothing major would happen tonight, and asked if she'd hold down the fort, so to speak. "Are you serious right now? Really? Jesus, Kaitlyn, how stupid are you? The Bellas are the admirers. But go on, get your big head, you idiot."

A laugh from the doorway had her turning around and she called out, "Come in." as she stood, stretched, popping her back, turning down her music, licking the last of the cheese from her nachos off her fingertips. She walked to the front area, and then asked, "So.. What are you in for?"

"Massage." Roman Reigns said quietly, as he looked at her, blinking..

Alanna burst into laughter and then said "Lemme guess.. You didn't get the whole 'AJ has a 15 minute younger twin' memo?"

"No, not really.. I mean I heard, but I didn't expect you two to look exactly alike." Roman muttered as he actually looked at her, noticed a few differences.

"Actually, Roman, we don't.. AJ's got no tattoos. I have two."

"Ahhh. Yeah, I see it now." Roman said as he noticed the feather and dream catcher on her shoulder where the racer back tanktop's straps cut away.

"Yeah, my sister's a big baby when it comes to needles." Alanna said as she turned to him and asked, "So.. What am I massaging?" a playful smirk coming easily to her lips as she raked her hand through her long dark brown hair. She groaned as she felt a wave of nausea hitting her and held up a finger before darting back to the back to a small bathroom in the corner of the office area.

"You okay?"

"Yeah." Alanna called back, covering up the sounds of her being sick, or so she hoped at least, with the running tap. She found a toothbrush, her toothpaste and quickly brushed her teeth, then walked back to the front, as she said "The nachos didn't agree with me, I guess." and gaped for a moment when he wasn't looking, because his t shirt was off, and she realized just how muscular the man actually was.

If they all looked like this? She was never gonna get used to working backstage. And her horomones were going to get her into some serious and deep shit before it was all over with. She mentally kicked herself, then reminded herself of Grant and all the reasons why it wouldn't be good for her to get mixed up with one of the guys.

She rubbed in the lotion, started to rub it across his shoulders and then his back, sitting behind him as she said "So.. How's it feel to be a tag team champion?"

"Pretty good, actually." Roman said as he asked, "What was it like being AJ's sister?"

"Well, we're both nutty, so.."

"Ahh, so basically, not a dull moment, right?"

"Nope. Never a dull moment.. AJ was kinda the good twin though. I was the one who was always into something or another." Alanna babbled as she worked her hands in circular motion over his strained muscles. "Why so tense, Roman?"

"Not sure.. Probably the damn hotel bed. The one in my room wasn't really all the comfortable." Roman said as Alanna groaned and said "I know, right? I think a fuckin spring poked me half the night last night, when I wasn't wide awake..."

"You didn't sleep?"

"Not really.. I had a horror movie night.. Kind of scared myself too badly, I think." Alanna lied as she bit her lip, leaned around and then asked, "The scar.. How'd you get it?"

"I think it was football. It's been a really long time, can't honestly remember." Roman said as he tried to ignore the scent of the perfume she was wearing, or the way the massage felt overall.

"Yeah, football's brutal." Alanna said as Roman raised a brow and Alanna shrugged then said "My mom.. She raised me and AJ to not be pigeonholed into the whole girls play with dolls, boys play with balls thing.. I played for a little while in junior high after she took time off work, came to our school and raised hell because the coach wouldn't let me go for the team."

"Wow. But you're so small, I mean you weren't worried about getting crushed?" Roman asked as he smiled at her jokingly, and looked at her intently, his eyes filled with curiousity.

"Not really. I mean I was, but I realized that I was the one who wanted to go out for it, and if I got hurt, then it was kind of me bringing it on myself.. I'm good at doing that, apparently." she muttered the last part mostly to herself as Roman asked, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." Alanna lied again, choosing not to get too close to anyone at the moment, her sister's words echoing in her mind, how nobody back here could be trusted. She also reminded herself that she was having a kid soon, and she was just getting out of a really, really toxic relationship. And she barely knew any of the people on the roster anyway, maybe it was for the best if she kept things that way.

"You sure?" Roman asked as he studied her, noticed a fading black eye, remembered hearing the whispering back and forth between Ziggler and Big E Langston not so long ago. Not that he'd been purposely trying to hear them, of course, but their whispers weren't that quiet in all honesty.

"Yeah, I'm sure. Why?" Alanna asked as Roman shrugged and then said "You just look tense."

"Like I said.. I didn't sleep well last night. And the horror movies I watched didn't help any." Alanna lied yet again. Honestly, she'd been up and down half the night before because her ex kept calling her cell phone, mumbling and hanging up. Then at about 3 am, she'd been woken up by what she thought was someone trying to get into her room, wound up sneaking through the bathroom and into AJ's room just in case.

So there was yet another good reason not to let any of these people close to her, because she was more or less the type of person that didn't want anyone else being hurt by her own stupidity.

"All done. Good luck in your match tonight, Roman." Alanna said as she held his shirt out to him, then turned to walk back towards the back. The diziness washed over her in a quick wave, and she held onto the edge of the counter. Unfortunately, Roman noticed and steadying her, he asked, "Are you sure you're okay?"

"Trust me, I'm fine. This never lasts for very long, and it only happens when I overdo it or something." Alanna said as she thanked him for steadying her, then got him out of the room, and sat down, pulling herself together.

Roman walked out into the hallway, getting the distinct feeling that if he wanted to get to know her, it was going to take a lot of effort, because rumor had it, she'd been through literal hell lately and she probably didn't trust anyone right now. It made him angry when he thought of all the things he'd heard that'd happened to her because of that bastard. And it made him determined to get to know her a lot better, be around a lot more.

AJ came in and after they talked for a while, Alanna drifted off to sleep, taking a quick nap. When she woke up, she found an amused Sheamus sitting there quietly, like he was waiting on something.

"Shit.. Why didn't you wake me up?" Alanna asked, biting her lip, nervously. She hoped he hadn't been sitting there too long, because she really needed this job and the money, the convienent moving around constantly it gave her.

"Because, lass, yeh looked loike yeh could use te sleep." Sheamus said as he added, "Yer sister said yeh gave massages."

"I do.. Are you in need of one?"

"Yeah. If yeh are tired, lass, ah can come back."

"It's fine, really." Alanna said as she looked at him then added sheepishly, "Didn't sleep well last night."

Sheamus shrugged and then said "Et will be our little secret." as he settled in on the cot, let her start massaging his back, biting back a groan as her small hands rubbed slow circles across his shoulders. He got the distinct feeling AJ sent him in here for a reason, and honestly, he didn't mind it, either.

She'd probably seen him gaping at Alanna earlier at breakfast in the hotel like a proper arse, and decided to 'play cupid', see what happened.

"Good.. I mean I don't take naps all the time.." Alanna said as she bit her lip, tried to focus on the massage, not on the man she was giving the damn massage to. Her horomones were acting all wonky again, and she mentally kicked herself for it.

Her Ipod started to play Korn ft Skrillex and she blushed then said "Sorry.. I have really weird taste in music." as Sheamus chuckled and pointed out, "Yeh apologize too much, lass." while feeling sick as he said it, knowing exactly what she'd been through (thanks to overhearing Dolph and Big E, and AJ's telling him when she approached him about his having been sort of 'checking out' her twin earlier) was the reason why she did so.

"So.. What else did my sister tell you?" Alanna asked curiously, as she looked at the Irish male and smirked a little, curious.. She just had this feeling her sister was up to something, as usual, trying to 'fix her mess', like AJ had always tried her best to do when they were younger.

Sheamus chuckled to himself and then said "Just that, lass. But ah asked her first." as he turned to look at her, watch her as she rubbed more lotion onto her hands, blowing on it first to either warm it up or cool it down, he wasn't sure which exactly.

Alanna felt eyes on her again, but she brushed it off to paranoia like she did when she felt like someone was staring at her lately. It happened a lot. And it didn't help that everything freaked her out.

She finished giving Sheamus a massage and he hung around a little bit, sort of talking to her. He got the feeling she wasn't telling him something, but he kept it to himself.. All the more reason for him to get to know her better.

Finally alone in the office, Alanna groaned as her cell phone started to ring again, only for her to answer, and hear her ex laughing bitterly as he said "I'm getting closer, Lanna." and then the dialtone cut through the call, indicating it'd ended.

Disgusted and angry, sick of feeling hunted, she threw the phone into the hallway, pieces going everywhere. She picked them up and set off to find her twin and her twin's current boyfriend Dolph to let them know Grant had in fact, called back today.

And apparently, he was coming to get her.

NOTES:

Okay, so this came to me while watching the movie Enough with J Lo, earlier today. I had an AJ Lee twin fic a long while back and while I liked it, I just never really got anywhere with it, the muse and the time to write wasn't there. Hopefully this time, this story is liked and gets a ton of good reviews, because my faith in my writing abilities is very shaky right now, and I've considered stopping for a while now because I'm well aware of the fact that I can't actually write for crap.

Anyway, beyond that, if you like this, tell me. I'm completely up in arms as to what I'll do with Alanna, however and who I'll ultimately pair her with.. So if you like this, tell me and keep reading.

Opening a poll for pairing, though I will say Alanna, I feel, is an oc that needs a strong and dominant male.

Trying her against Roman Reigns and Sheamus in this chapter.. Might try her against Dean and Randy in the next one.. I'm definitely thinking she needs a strong and dominant guy with very slight romantic tendencies. But only slight ones..

If you have a suggestion, feel free to tell me who and I'll try her against that guy.
