Breaking Down Walls

-Friday Morning-

Samaria's POV

We're making our way through Louisiana. The guys have a house show match Sunday so we decided to explore Louisiana a little bit. The guys are going to go do one if their crazy workouts while we shop.

There was a knock at our hotel door.

"Lelani can you get that?" I was still getting dressed.

"Yeah." I heard the door open.

"For a Mrs. Lelani Anoa'i."

"Thank you." The door closed.

"Wow." I came out the closet.

"What- Damn." Someone sent her flowers and a huge bag.

"Did they say who it's from?"

"No, there's a card though." She took it off the flowers.

"Your smile makes my heart beat faster. Sincerely, your future boyfriend."

"It has to be someone on SmackDown. We're the only ones here."

"I have no idea who it could be."

"You think it's Orton? You said he hits on you."

"No, he's not that romantic."

"What's in the bag?" She opened it.

"Wow, they got me a Michael Kors bag."

Lelani's POV

My admirer got me this really nice purple suede Michael Kors grab bag.

"This goes with my outfit." I started taking out the paper and plastic inside and putting my things from my other bag in it.

"I wish I had some random guy sending me shit."

"Maybe if you were nice to John then he would buy you nice things."

"He's so annoying. You saw the DMs he sent me."

"He wants to be your friend. Just try to tolerate him. We do have to work with him the next couple of weeks." She has a point.

"Okay, but his girlfriend gets in my face on more time-"

"She won't now. You got her pretty good yesterday."

"Yeah come on." Samaria grabbed her bag and phone.

"Wait let's take a photo." I pulled her over to the mirror.

"We have Instagrams now. Better start using them." We took a photo.

"Happy now?"

"Yeah, we look fine." We left out the hotel room. As we walked we saw John leaving out his room. Samaria hurried her pace and passed him up. I caught up with her and then got a idea.

"Shoot, I forgot my Chapstick. I'll go back and get it."

"You can borrow mine."

"No, I need mine. Go to the elevators. I'll be there in a minute."

"Okay." She rolled her eyes and kept walking I hurried back to where John was.

"Give me your phone."

"Huh?" He took it out his pocket. I snatched it and put Samaria's number.

"Don't mess this up." I gave him his phone back and walked off. Samaria will thank me later.

"That was quick." Samaria raised an eyebrow seeing me back.

"Funny, when I was going to get my key card it was right there." I laughed.

"Sure."

Samaria's POV

Shopping went well. The guys got finished at the gym and said they'll meet up with us later to get something to eat.

"So we have time to kill. What do you want to do?" I asked.

"Let's go to Starbucks."

"Okay." We went to a Starbucks, ordered, and sat down.

"That bikini that you got is really cute." Lelani told me.

"Yeah, I miss Hawaii. We haven't been there since your birthday two years ago."

"I know. I miss surfing. The waves in Florida aren't like the ones in Hawaii."

"Your right." My phone got a text.

'Hi, it's John'

"Lelani?"

"Samaria." She laughed.

"How did Cena get my number?"

"Yellow pages."

"Seriously?"

"Calm down. Instead of getting my "lost" Chapstick I gave him your number?"

"Why? I thought you went to apologize to him."

"Nope."

"You're not Dean. Don't nope me."

"You should text him back." I flipped her off.

"That's a bad finger." I rolled my eyes. Right then my form of payback walked into the shop.

"Two can play that game." I got up. Lelani noticed who I was walking to.

"Samaria sit down."

"Hi, Randy. Can I see your phone?"

"Uh, sure?" He unlocked it and handed it to me.

"Here's Lelani's number. She was too shy to come over and give it to you."

"Tell her she doesn't have to be and that I'll text her tonight."

"Will do." I came back to our table.

"Did you have to do that?"

"Yes, besides he's your type. You never liked island guys. You like athletic white boys with tans and tattoos."

"And you like Mark Wahlberg. Who looks like him? John."

"John wishes he could look like my baby. John has no swag, no game. The man can't even keep a decent hair cut. He's never gonna get with a woman like me."

"You guys would be cute together. He's tall, you're tall. He has dimples, you have dimples. You have a big butt, he has a big butt."

"He can't wrestle, I can. I'm good looking, he looks like The Hulk."

Lelani's POV

We caught up with the guys and went to eat at this steakhouse. Joe had some big surprise for us.

"So what's the big news?" Samaria asked.

"It's-"

"Don't tell them yet." Dean said.

"You sure about that?" Samaria asked grabbing her steak knife.

"Yep." Dean said mimicking her. Neck roll and all.

"I hate you, Dean." She laughed.

"Can we get a hint?"

"Fish." Seth said.

"Fish?" We both replied.

"Fish." They all three said.

When our food finally arrived the guys agreed to tell us.

"Okay, so you know the Japan Tour is coming up." Joe smiled.

"Yeah." I said.

"Well, you two get to go."

"Oh my god! For real?" I asked.

"Yeah, Vince really wants you guys to go. People over there really want to meet you two."

"Wait, who are we wrestling?" Samaria asked.

"Natalya and Kaitlyn."

"That's awesome. Wait what did that have to do with fish?" Samaria asked.

"Japan. The capital of Sushi."

"Oh, you're so deep Seth." Samaria said.

"I try."

Samaria's POV

We got back to our hotel room. Lelani was in the shower I was resting on the bed. I decided to take a pic for my dry Instagram. I took and selfie and captioned it: Had a great day in Louisiana with TeraTheGorgeous and the guys. #BelieveInTheShield.

After I posted that I got a text from John.

'You're not good at texting back'

'Maybe you're not patient'

'I have patient. I'm still trying to get you to like me'

'Your girlfriend likes you'

'I know she does'

'Then text her'

'I'm trying to get to know you. We have to work together'

'Whatever, what do you want to know?'

'What's your main finisher'

'My submission is a sharpshooter into a headlock. My regular finisher is a that power bomb'

'Thats quite a move set. You're a strong girl. Are you into weight lifting ?'

'Not really. Growing up I liked the wrestler that did powerful moves. So I based my move-set off of that and I'm not a girl I'm a woman'

'Sorry, woman'

'It's okay, boy'

'I'm a man. All man'

'Doubt that'

'What's the doubt?'

'You just aren't manly to me, Pebbles'

'We using nicknames now? :)'

'No'

'Yes, baddie'

'Baddie?'

'You're a bad woman'

'I'm good at times'

'I'd like to find out ;)'

'Nikki Bella'

'I'm just talking to you'

'You're flirting'

'How?'

';)= flirting'

'What does this mean :p?'

'I'm going to stop texting you before you get in trouble with your GIRLFRIEND'

'She doesn't check my phone'

'Thats what you think. Go to sleep John'

"What are you smiling about?" Lelani asked as she brushed her hair.

"I'm not."

"I was watching you. You had a Kool-Aid smile. It's John, huh?"

"I was texting him, but I wasn't smiling."

"Whatever you say."

"The guy trying to eat your cookie text you yet?"

"No, and he's never going to get close to this cookie. First I have to figure out who's sending these gifts."

"You have a idea yet?"

"I've eliminated Seth and Dean since they're nothing talking to someone right now. I don't think it's any mid-carders because these gifts are expensive."

"They could buy a bag or two, Lani."

"I know but this guy is just throwing it out like money isn't a thing." Our room telephone rang. I picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hi, this is the front desk. A hundred dollar credit has been added to your room."

"From who may I ask?"

"The person wanted to stay anonymous."

"Okay, thank you." I hung up.

"What was that?"

"Someone gave us a hundred dollar credit to spend at the hotel."

"Damn, we just had dinner."

"Who is this guy?"

"I'm just going to imagine its Ryan Gosling." She laid on her bed and looked through the room service menu.

"You just want to order a movie and go ham for breakfast."

"Yes, I can't have any sweets. I'm still trying to work off that pizza."

Lelani's POV

We decided to watch Temptation. I've seen it before Samaria hasn't so I wasn't paying much attention. My phone got a text.

'Hey shy swag. It's Randy'

'I wasn't being shy. My sister was getting back at me for something I did earlier'

'I like being a pawn in your two's games. So what are you doing?'

'NOYB'

'YAG'

'What?'

'You are gorgeous'

'Well, on twitter it's Tera the beautiful'

'I know. I followed you. Kind of conceited but you are beautiful'

'We didn't make them that. The social media guy did'

'Suuurre, so where's my follow back'

'I don't follow creeps'

'Then why are you following Heymen? Lol'

'You're an ass'

'Just a joke. Please follow me.'

'No, you just tweet pictures of you at the gym and reply random girls dressed like hookers'

'So you've checked out my timeline?'

'Yes, then I realized how full of yourself you are so I didn't follow'

'I tweet gym photos for my fans and I can't help a lot of my fans are females. You jealous? :)'

'I'm not jealous of any woman. You're nothing to get jealous over'

'So you're not the jealous type? That's good. Tell me more about yourself. I already know you're the quiet one'

'You don't already know. You think.'

'Can you just come out of your shell a little so we can talk?'

'I'm not a damn turtle. Bye Orton'

-Sunday House Show-

Samaria's POV

We were getting ready to go out with the guys. It's The Shield vs. Randy Orton and The Usos. Lelani isn't so happy about it, but she has to deal.

"Lelani remember to grab Orton's leg when he comes to the ropes."

"Oh, don't worry I will."

We made our entrance, followed by Jimmy and Jey then Orton. Orton kept staring at us. Well, mostly Lelani.

The match was controlled by The Shield in the beginning of the match until Jimmy got the hot tag to Orton. He came in and knock Seth and Roman off the apron. When he got close to the ropes Lelani grabbed his ankle and pulled him down to the mat. When he noticed us he slide out the ring and got in between us. He stared down at Lelani. I looked at Dean in the ring he was thrown off. I hit Randy in the back of his neck and threw him back into the ring.

"You okay?"

"He licked his lips at me." Roman looks mad. Joe's going to be pissed.

The guys won with Roman getting the spear on Jey. We did our pose and went backstage.

"I guess Orton decided to do some improv." Dean said.

"Not with my little sister." Joe said annoyed.

"Don't worry big man. I'm grown I can handle my own problems.

"Just make sure you keep distances from him at the tour."

"He's going?"

"Yeah, you two, Natalya, and Kaitlyn are the only divas going." Seth said.

"That should be interesting." I laughed. Nikki's going to hate that were on a tour with her Superman.

"Just stay with us during the trip."

"All you guys do I workout. I'm exploring Japan. Get some authentic Hello Kitty merch." Lelani said.

"Aren't you too old for Hello Kitty?" Joe asked laughing.

"Hello Kitty is for all ages, Joseph."

"You nervous for your ring debuts tomorrow?"

"Hell no. I was ready since I came out the womb." I said. I have a match Kaitlyn. Lelani is going against Alicia Fox. We're pretty much having squash matches.

"I'm ready. Seeing you guys in the ring makes me want to wrestle really bad!"

-Monday-

Samaria's POV

My match was up first. I'm not nervous I just want to get out their already. Kaitlyn's music ended then our intro played.

We went down the stairs. Everyone patted me on the back and went back up. I went down to the ring.

The bell rang Kaitlyn and I locked up. We struggled to gain control then I pushed her. She fell on her ass. I laughed at her. She got up and rushed at me. I side stepped her.

Kaitlyn grabbed the ropes and stopped herself from running into the turnbuckle. I went over to her and smashed her head into the turnbuckle. I did it two more times then turn her around and pulled her into a clothesline. I kneeled down over her and started punching her in the face. The referee started counting me. I smashed her head against the mat then got up. I leaned against the turnbuckle waiting for her to come to. When she finally got to her feet I bicycle kicked her. The crowd cheered. I grabbed Kaitlyn's legs and did my triple power bomb move.

I pinned her.

"Here is your winner! Talia Carter!"

The rest of the stable came down and congratulated me.

"Your turn, Sis." I said to Lelani. She nodded. The show went to commercial. I went back up the steps with the guys.

Lelani's POV

The show came back from commercial.

"In the ring, representing The Shield! From Miami, Florida. Tera Carter!"

Alicia came down to the ring.

"And her opponent. From Ponte Verda Beach, Florida. Alicia Fox!" When Alicia came into the ring she threw her fox jacket at me. I ran at her and hit my Thesz press into my drop knee move. I hit her four times then got up. She held her stomach and rolled onto her side. I kicked her in her back.

"WEAK!"

I picked her up and threw her into the turnbuckle then turned her around so her back was facing me. I rammed my shoulder into her back. The referee pulled me off of her.

"Come on!" I grabbed her by her arms and kneeled down on one knee driving her back into my standing knee. I wrapped my hands around her chin and pulled up digging my leg into get back.

The referee asked her if she wants to give up.

"Tap Red! You are weak!" She's tried to fight it then tapped. I threw her to the mat then smacked her in the back of the head.

"Here is your winner! By submission Tera Carter!" The guys and Samaria came down to the ring.

We celebrated and did our pose followed by our exit through the crowd.

Randy's POV

My girl just killed it. Now I'm wishing the divas had longer matches. I can tell she can work. She worked Alicia's back like a pro. I can't wait to see her in a pay per view match where she has more time. I also can't wait to see her in one of those diva photo shoots.

I have a whole week to spend with her in Japan so hopefully I can get something going. Because I really want her on my arm already. But if I have to keep low key sending flowers and gifts I'll keep doing that.

"Samaria killed it." John said pulling me out my thoughts. We were sharing a locker room tonight.

"She was okay, but Lelani showed she's more technical. She worked the back. She has submission moves. You like Samaria because she has those power knock out moves. Lelani will weaken her opponent and talk shit while she does it. My kind of woman."

"Samaria's tattoo is better." He said.

"No one can do anything better than my flower."

"You already got a nickname for her and you aren't even dating?"

"Yeah, but I'm getting there. You have no chance in getting Samaria because you already have a girlfriend. She isn't going to do anything with you. Not a damn thing."

"I just have to make a smooth transition with leaving Nikki into a smooth transition getting Samaria."

"You are going to create so much drama in that divas locker room."

"I'm not trying to. But I want Samaria."

Samaria's POV

"I'm a grown woman

I can do whatever I want

I'm a grown woman

I can do whatever I want" I sang with Lelani as we showered.

"I can be bad if I want

I can do wrong if I want

I can live fast if I want

I can go slow all night long

I'm a grown woman

I can do whatever I want!"

"We need to get y'all in front of some cameras." Cameron says as we got out the shower.

"That's all you girl. I'm not about that life." I said.

"You guys would be so good on the show. You have the personalities and the fans love you."

"I just can't imagine having cameras following me around. Some people aren't made for that."

"I get you, but the producers have been watching and they really want you two on the show."

"Yeah, I don't think Mr. Sunshine Dean will like having cameras around him."

"Joe would get annoyed to." Lelani said.

"What about Seth?"

"He'd probably make faces at the camera." They laughed.

John's POV

"I'm going to miss my Superman." Nikki said as we stood outside my bus saying our goodbyes.

"I'm going to miss you too baby." We kissed. It started to get a little heated until I heard laughs on the other side of the parking lot. I looked up seeing The Shield getting on the bus some of the roster was getting on to get on the plane to go to Japan.

"Uh, John?"

"Sorry, baby. I'll call you when we land."

"And baby."

"Yeah?"

"Don't do anything bad."

"I'm Superman right?"

"Yeah." She smiled.

"I can't do anything bad." I kissed her.

"Bye."

"Bye, baby." I got on my bus. This tour should be very interesting.

Lelani's POV

I was sitting next to Samaria on the bus. Joe and Seth were behind us. Seth was next to Kaitlyn on the other side of the bus. I don't see Randy. He must not be coming. SmackDown is tomorrow.

Before I could put on my Beats my annoyance arrived. He smiled seeing me and took the seat right in front of me.

Randy didn't say anything. Maybe this trip won't be so bad.

'Good match :)' or maybe not.

'Thanks'

'You look nice. I like when you wear your hair down' I was lazy after my shower so I brushed it and just let it air dry.

'Thanks'

'You excited for the tour?'

'Yes'

'You're no fun to text'

'I don't want to text you'

'But yet you keep replying… you have a crush on me' I kicked his chair.

'See you could have not reacted but you did… you have a crush on RKO'

''Nooooo, I have boyfriend'

'No you don't'

'Yes I do'

'You don't talk about him'

'I keep things private'

'Okay, beautiful. I guess I'll just have to steal you from your "boyfriend"'

'Good luck'

'I don't need it babes' I kicked his chair again.

'Stop hitting on me :)' I rolled my eyes and put my phone on do not disturb.

This is going to be a crazy tour.
