Kelly jumped up suddenly with a loud squeal. "Kelly what's wrong"? Mickie asked as she quickly turned on the light. Kelly looked around the hotel room. Kane wasn't there it was just a nightmare. She wished she had decided to room by herself as she felt disturbing Mickie. "Sorry, it was just a nightmare". "Are you okay now"? "Yeah, I'm fine". Mickie came over to sit by her bed. "Hey, he is a scary guy. It's perfectly understandable to be having nightmares about him"." Yeah, I wish I wasn't".
Mickie put a hand on her shoulder comfortingly. "It's okay now Mickie lets go back to sleep". Mickie nodded and told her goodnight before turning out the light and heading back to her own bed. Kelly pulled the covers under her chin and turned towards the wall. She needed to get over this fear of Kane. Stephanie had assured her he wouldn't be bothering her anymore. That didn't stop him from haunting her in her dreams. As scary as that was at least he wasn't visiting her in real life.
At some point, she fell asleep because the alarm on her phone woke her the next morning. She let Mickie take her shower first while she packed some of her stuff. After Mickie was done she took her own shower. Then they headed down to meet Candice and Melina for breakfast in the hotel lobby. Kelly for some reason was craving a blueberry muffin and a cup of coffee. Usually, she ate healthier but after the night she had she felt she deserved this. Melina and Candice were already sitting at a table so they slipped in on the other side. Candice began talking about some shampoo scent as she scooted the food around in her plate.
Mickie contributed while Kelly just focused on eating her muffin. It really was good. "Ugh". Melina said suddenly. She was looking at her cell phone with a disgusted look on her face. "What's wrong"? Candice asked. "It's Jim texting me again". Jim Morrison was Melina's long term boyfriend who had recently broken up with her. In Kelly's opinion, she was all the better off for it. Either way the sound of his name made her think of Miz. Actually, she didn't want to think of either of them right now.
"What does he want now"? Candice asked taking a bite of egg. "He's still complaining about me seeing Dave. I mean I get it maybe it was a screwy thing to do but I apologized. I'm dealing with it enough. I don't why he still brings it up. It's not like he was the perfect boyfriend anyway. He probably cheated too". "I don't know why you deal with that jerk". Mickie said chewing her food. "Whatever you did in the past is the past. You apologized and you moved on. Including moved on from him".
"I agree you deserve better than him". Kelly said smiling. "Thanks, guys. I know it seems like it should be easy to get over him. But he was my first love really. Maybe my only love. Batista was so attractive though and he was interested in me. I regret it since nothing came of it". "You live and you learn". Mickie said smiling. "This is why I won't date in the business". Candice said. "Good idea". Kelly said thinking of someone in particular. "Oh no Kelly don't look". Mickie said cringing. Of course, Kelly had to look and regretted as soon as she did it.
Randy Orton, as well as Ted Dibiase and Cody Rhodes, came walking by. "The Viper and his legacy". Melina said drawing it out as she spoke. Kelly wasn't even aware they were staying at that hotel. Thankfully they headed right outside apparently leaving. "Least he didn't come over here". Candice offered. "Speaking of jerk's he's one too". Mickie said smiling at Kelly. "Yeah you're right," she said grinning back. They had a show in Los Angeles so they didn't have to ride far to the arena.
Kelly wanted to treat herself to something that made her happy. Shopping. The four of them shopped until it was time to go to the arena. Kelly was a little bummed she didn't have a match tonight. All the other girls were in a six-man tag tonight with Beth, Jillian, and Layla. At the same time it was probably for the best she wasn't wrestling. She probably didn't have the emotional state for it anyway. She wished the girls good luck on their match and headed back to the locker room.
Hoping on the way she might find someone to talk too. She ended up finding someone she didn't want to see. Actually to someones. "Well look coming here". Ted said smirking. "That's exactly what I needed to see today". Kelly glared knowing he was talking about her. Neither Ted nor Cody made any move to act like they weren't looking at her. In fact, they were obviously checking her out. "Hey, Kel you want to hang out with us"? Cody asked with a smirk. She ignored him.
"Don't feel bad Cody. She's probably not that good. According to Randy, she wasn't. He would know since he had her". "Watch your mouth". She said not knowing why she reacted or acted like she was their mother or something. "What's going on here"? Kelly froze recognizing that one of a kind voice. Not a voice she wanted to hear either way. "Nothing Randy were just talking to Kelly". She looked up as Randy was staring right at her. "They giving you trouble"? Don't act like you care she wanted to say. But she didn't. In fact, she couldn't bring herself to say anything to him.
"Well, Kelly I don't expect you to tell me that. Actually, I don't expect you to tell me anything at all. But here's the truth. No man is ever bothering you. Because you love all that male attention. Not just me. Everyone in the locker room. At least ten people not including me". He glared at her and she couldn't help but feel so hurt by his words. She felt tears threatening to fall and walked off before anyone could see them. Randy watched her leave beside him for only a second before losing interest.
Ted and Cody, however, had a ton of fun watching her leave. "Stop staring at her we have a match to go over. Besides if you asked her I'm sure she'd pleasure you". "I sure wish she would". Ted commented. Randy rolled his eyes. "Like I said focus". They didn't need to be wasting their time thinking about Kelly when they should be focusing on this match. Besides, there were more women out there. Including several more good looking divas in the locker room. They could probably have their pick.
Kelly had tears running down her face and she walked carefully to ensure no one saw her crying. But someone did. Kane couldn't help but be a little happy to see her in pain. Those tears made him happy but he also wanted to destroy who made her unhappy. Could it be that mystery man of hers? It wasn't as though he felt pity for her though. Quite the opposite as he intended to make her suffer.
"Oh looks like someone's upset". Kelly cursed under her breath. Why-why-why? Them of all people right now. "Poor Kelly Kelly". Morrison said smirking. "Maybe she feels bad for what she did. Or she realizes now she won't have a chance to get back with me now. I would cry too if I was a woman". "True but I think she has a lot to cry about lately". "She probably does nothing but cry right Kelly"? She refused to even turn around and continued in the opposite direction. "Well, I guess she doesn't want to talk to us". "Her loss". She heard their laughter even as far away as she was.
She didn't need to let them get to her. Really it wasn't them. They hadn't upset her only added to it. She didn't know who the biggest jerks were. Miz and Morrison, Cody and Ted, or Randy? She was leaning toward Randy. She had actually dated Miz. Randy had just been a fling. Such a nonchalant way to think about it. Though it oddly gave her some satisfaction. Randy wanted to play himself up big. Yet he had only been a fling. Nor just to her but lots of women. What had she even been thinking? Someone like him. That was never going to work. She should have known a relationship with him wasn't possible. He was cruel anyway. Including to her for no reason.
Why would she expect anything different? Perhaps Candice was right. Dating in the company was just asking for drama. Candice mostly avoided it dating her surgeon boyfriend. Come to think of it, she was mostly happy. Mickie would have problems with her boyfriend Kenny every now and then. Melina was always having problems with Jim. She needed to stand back and think about her choices. Regardless she wouldn't be having one night stands anymore. She learned her lesson about that already.
