A/N: I don't own anyone!
Ashley wiped her lips with the back of her hand and stared at Triple H retreating down the hall. He was going to pay for this. She guaranteed that much. But for now, she couldn't think of him because she was supposed to meet John Cena in her locker room.
She stood outside her locker room door three minutes later, pacing. Would she tell John what had just happened with Triple H? Or would she just handle it on her own?
"I can handle my own business," she decided, then went into her locker room.
"Hey baby, I was worried about you," John Cena said, loking up when Ashley entered. "Your coffee break was pretty long."
"Yeah, I know, I just ran into this wrestler backstage and we got...acquainted," she replied.
"Really? Which wrestler?" he asked curiously.
She waved her hand carelessly. "Ah, he's not important. You're the only important one here, Champ."
He smiled and pulled her down next to him. "I'm really glad that you won that contest," he whispered, leaning over to kiss her. "Because if you weren't here, I don't have any idea of what I'd be doing right now!"
"You'd be doing something," she assured him, kissing him back. The kiss got deeper and just before John could lift her shirt up, there was a knock on the door.
"Shit!" John exclaimed, breaking the kiss and standing up. "I wonder who that is?"
"I'll see..." Ashley went over to the door and opened it without asking who it was.
"Well hello there, Ashley," Triple H said, leaning against the door. "We meet once again."
"What do you want?" Ashley asked, frowning.
"I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed our little coffee break together," he replied.
John walked over to them. "What are you talking about?"
"Ashley and I got to know each other a little better a few minutes ago. See, we were both getting a cup of coffee," Triple H explained. "And that's when she starting going on about how nice and sculpted my body was."
"Huh?" John was confused. He looked at Ashley, who was blushing.
"Shut up!" Ashley said quickly. She looked at John. "He's a jerk. Are you going to believe him?"
"I don't know," John said. He looked at Triple H. "Now what were you saying?"
"Well, after our little coffee meeting, you'd never guess what happened," Triple H went on. Ashley looked at him with pleading eyes.
"What?" John asked.
"She agreed for you and her to go on a double date with me and Steph," Triple H said. "You know, John, she's absolutely crazy about you."
"I know," John said, looking at her and smiling. "So when's this date?"
"Tonight," Triple H said. "I've got tickets to Wild 'N Out!"
"Oh, that Nick Cannon show? That's hella funny!" John said. "Well, I've got to go get ready for a match so I'll meet you in a few, Ash. Later Trips."
Ashley and Triple H both watched John make his way down the hall. When he disappeared, Ashley looked at Triple H, then pulled him inside her locker room and locked the door. She pushed him over to the couch and made him sit down.
"Wow, I didn't think you'd give in this soon," Triple H said, looking up at her and smiling.
"I'm not 'giving in' to anything!" Ashley exclaimed. "Now what the hell do you think you're doing?"
"What?" he asked innocently.
"In the beginning you were making it seem like I liked you or something. I thought I made it obvious that I didn't," she said with narrowed eyes.
"That's just a front, baby," he said, pulling her down on top of him. "You know you want me."
"That's crap! Let me go!" she exclaimed, struggling to get out of his arms.
"Sure, right after I kiss you..."
His voice trailed off as he pressed his lips to hers. This time the kiss wasn't so rough. It was soft and gentle and left Ashley in a daze.
"I'm a great kisser, I know," he whispered to her as they stared into each other's eyes after the kiss. "John Cena can't kiss like me."
She was out of her daze as soon as she heard him say John's name. "You are such a loser," she said, standing up on shaky legs.
He noticed her shaking legs. "Looks like this loser has quite an effect on you." He stood up and headed for the door. As he exited, he turned around to look at her once more. "I'll see you tonight on our date!" And then he was gone.
Ashley sat down on the couch and closed her eyes. Playing The Game was a bit more difficult than she'd expected...
