Jennifer stretched her legs as she got out of the car. Her and Phil had finally reached Boston with 2 hours left to spare before the show. Jenn looked around the lot and saw tour busses and backstage crew members. She figured this lot was reserved for superstars and employees only. Jenn took a second look at the buses and then turned to Phil. "Don't you have a tour bus?"
With a slight smile on his face Phil nodded. "Then why couldn't we drive here in it? It would have been 10 times more comfortable." Jenn put her hand on her hips as she waited for his answer.
"You're not worth it." Phil broke out into a full out grin as he saw her reaction. He finished pulling all their things out of the car and turned to face her. He loved messing with her.
"Oh, really?" Jenn grabbed her things and headed off. "Jackass." She tried to keep herself from smiling.
"What was that?" Phil jogged up behind her, smiling, forgetting his things for a moment.
"You heard-" Jenn was cut off as Phil snaked his arms around her waist and lifted her in the air. Jenn thrashed around laughing as she tried to get free. "Phillip, put me down this instant!" Not expecting him to actually do it, she was caught off guard when Phil dropped her. She kept herself from falling as she regained her balance. Her back still to him, she blindly mule kicked behind her and smiled when she felt her foot hit him.
She turned around and did her best to keep from bursting out into a fit of laughter. Phil was sitting on the ground holding his crotch. She hit him right below the belt. "You have fucking amazing aim." Phil growled sarcastically through his clenched teeth.
"That's payback for spilling Coke all over me in the car. I did say I would get you back when we got to Boston." Jenn walked back to the car, grabbed Phil's things and brought them to where he was still sitting. "Come on, I heard its best to just walk it off."
"Where'd you here that from?" Phil got up gingerly and grabbed his bag, but stayed where he was.
"You." Jenn grabbed his bags, seeing that she felt kinda bad about kicking him.
"Yeah, cuz my advice is always the best to listen to."
"You say that all the time too." Jenn grinned as she waited for Phil to start walking. "Well, what would you like me to do about it?"
"Kiss it to make it feel better." Phil wiggled his eyebrows up and down and had this smirk on his face that caused Jenn to crack up.
"In your dreams, Punk."
"Well, now that you mention it…..." Phil kept the smirk on his face that just added to Jenn's laughter.
"Ewww, you're nasty." This time both the two Chicago natives started to laugh. They were about to start walking when they were joined by someone else.
"Wow, Phil is actually flirting. I thought I would never see the day." The Commander in Chief of the ChainGang said. "You must be his girlfriend or something."
Phil choked back his laugher. "No, not at all. She's my best friend, Jennifer McCoy. Jennifer, meet WWE's golden boy, John Cena." Phil thought about having Jenn as his girlfriend and it was appealing to him. She was just that type of girl he would be willing to spend the rest of his life with. Funny, smart, beautiful, not afraid to speak her mind. She had everything he was looking for in a woman. To be honest he had a bit of a thing for her since high school, he just never acted on his feelings.
"We've known each other since we were kids. We grew up on the same street. We went to the same elementary, middle and high school. We even toured the indies together for a couple years." Jennifer smiled as she shook John's hand. Would she ever date Phil? Yeah, she would. To her he seemed like the perfect guy. Ever since they started touring the indies, she had felt this attraction towards him, but never did anything about it.
"Oh, so you're the legendary Jennifer McCoy that we're always hearing about." John noticed her Marine Corp tattoo before he let her hand drop. He looked over her with a smile on his face. There was something extremely different about her, but in a good way. She was different then all the divas that he found himself surrounded by. She had muscle and tattoos and this badass vibe that came from her that he just loved.
"Legendary statues and its only my first day? That must be a record." Jenn smiled and nudged Phil, silently teasing him. He lightly shoved her in return and smiled back.
"He talks about you ALL the time. I can see why though. It seems that there's a lot to talk about." John winked and readjusted his bag on his shoulder and the three set off towards the arena. "I don't think I've ever seen a diva with tattoos, muscle and muti-colored hair. Adding the fact that Punkers here is your BBF tells me that you don't take shit form anyone and you don't have a filter between your brain and mouth."
"Is that a bad thing?" Jennifer smirked at the current WWE Champion. She briefly looked over him. He was even better looking in person. He seemed like a really nice guy.
"For the corporate guys, yes, but for me personally, I think it'll be interesting having some like you in the divas division. And it just might end up being a pleasure having you backstage. Especially, since you're pretty easy on the eyes." John continued to smile as he glanced over at the new diva who seemed to be blushing at the last comment he made.
"You're not so bad on the eyes yourself. That's probably why they've kept you around for so long. I mean, it certainly isn't because of your wrestling abilities." Jennifer teased. She knew that if it came down to it, John wasn't a bad wrestler, but calling him out on all the fan chatter was something she couldn't resist.
"Oh really? How bout we give it a go in the practice ring backstage?" They had reached the backstage doors and flashed their WWE passes to security and continued to walk, Phil falling a step behind, seeing that he felt somewhat of a third wheel.
"You're on. Meet you there in 20?" John nodded in agreement and walked off to his assigned locker room.
"Well you two certainly hit it off." Phil said, finally speaking up. He was a little disappointed that Jennifer was going to go off with John instead of staying with him.
"He seems really nice. I expected him to be a bit more stuck up, ya know, him being the top guy and all." Jenn followed Phil to his locker room. She didn't have one yet seeing that she wouldn't be competing till next week.
"Nah, it's the guys like Nick and Stu that you want to watch out of. That's Barrett and Ziggler by the way. David and Heath are two other guys to watch out for. Total pricks. I absolutely hated working with them." Jenn thought it was funny how Phil was not the one to really socialize, yet he knew everyone's personalities. "The only divas that I know that are totally bitches are the Bella twins."
"What about the big names?" They had reached the locker room and walked inside, putting their bags down on a nearby bench.
"Well, you already met John and he's obviously the biggest name. Randy used to be a complete prick, but ever since his little girl, Alanna, was born, he's a totally softy now and I'm pretty good friends with him now actually. Mike, or Miz is actually a pretty cool guy, but I really don't talk to him much. Stephen/Sheamus is a really nice guy; I hang with him all the time. Sheamo and Kofi are my closes friends here. Other guys are either friends or just co-workers that I don't really care about." Phil pulled his ring gear out of his bag and watched as Jenn took in all this information while she pulled some gym shorts and a tank-top out of her bag.
Phil pulled his shirt over his head and tossed it in his bag. When he looked back up he saw Jenn staring at his chest. Phil smiled, not making a big deal of it. "See something you like? If you want a picture I'm sure there are plenty on Google."
Jennifer laughed and looked into his hazel eyes. "You just can't get your mind outta the fucking gutter today can you? I was looking over your tattoo. You get more work done on it? It seems a bit different." Jennifer had to admit, Phil without a shirt on and in jeans was a nice sight.
"Yeah, I shaded the skull a little darker so the color pops a bit." For some reason he liked the idea that she knew him so well that she could pick up on the slightest change. He grabbed his trunks and headed to the bathroom. While he did that Jenn changes into shorts and tank-top she had pulled out of her bag. She took off her knee high boots that she was wearing and switched them out for her wrestling boots.
Phil, about 2 minutes later, came out in his black, red and white tights. He adjusted them so they were comfortable and turned his attention to Jenn who looked about ready for her challenge against John in the practice ring. Phil walked over to his bag and pulled out his wrist tape and tossed it to Jennifer.
"Even if its just a sparing match, make sure you wrap up that left wrist. You said it was bothering you the last match you had and you don't need to go around fucking it up again before your debut." About 3 years ago, some rookie at an indy show had pushed her off the top rope and Jennifer landed awkwardly out at ringside. When she landed, she landed on her wrist, it bending completely backwards and snapped. It hasn't been the same since. Always acting up, hurting or going numb at random points.
"Yeah, yeah, I know." Jenn quickly wrapped up her left hand and wrist. It looked just like Phil's when he did it, except she put the initials EM instead of an X. The EM obviously standing for Elliot McCoy. After she had broken her wrist, her brother was set to go over seas, for what would turn out to be the last time. Since this one was supposed to be his longest tour he had had, he wanted her to think of him when he was gone, so she promised to write his initials on her wrist tape every time she stepped into the ring. She still did, even though he was gone.
"Its is okay that i'm gonna go and hang with John, right? Its not a problem, is it?" It had just hit Jennifer that maybe Phil would want to spend her first day here with him.
"Uh, no its fine. I shouldn't be your only friend here. Plus, he's a nice guy and it helps being good friend with the top guy." To be honest, he would rather Jenn be with him then with Cena. He finally had a good friend here and he didn't want to lose her to the other superstars.
"You sure?"
"Yeah." 'No' Phil gave her a reassuring smile, despite his thoughts.
"Alright then, I'll hopefully see you before your promo." Jenn was at the door now and went to open it before she stopped. "Uhh, Phil…how do I get to the practice ring?"
Phil chuckled and then rambled a list of turns to take. "Go down to the end of the hall, turn left, then walked down and take the second right and then the first left." He had memorized the route by now. Every backstage setting looked and was the same no matter what arena they were in.
"K, thanks, Punk. I'll see you in awhile." She gave him one last smile before she headed out to me John.
Phil sat in his locker room, getting the rest of his gear on. The feeling of solitude set in once again. He usually was alone backstage with the exception of sometimes being with Randy or Stephen Kofi. He hoped that now that Jennifer had signed with the company that would change, but looks like he might have guessed wrong.
Next Chapter has manly John and Jenn. I know this cuz i've already written it lol and hopfully i'll have it up soon. Please review and leave your coments, i would love to hear them! I hope you guys like it so far! =)
