Chapter Three

Dancing On Quicksand

Lilith took the last drag of her cigarette, working up the courage to call Jeff. She danced around the thought of it for about 5 minutes. She finally found her nerve, pulled out her phone, and called him. It rang three times then went straight to voicemail. She sighed, I guess it's my time for a little payback then she thought to herself. She walked to the backstage door and opened it to see Reby there giving her a disappointed look.

"Don't look at me like that" Lilith said.

"Oh I'll look at you like this all I want, I thought you quit" Reby replied clearly annoyed.

"Yeah, I did too, and but just give me a lecture please" Lilith stated firmly.

"Fine" Reby sighed rolling her eyes.

"He sent me to voicemail" Lilith murmured as she leaned her body against a wall.

"Who Jeff?" Reby questioned.

"Yep, I mean I deserve it, it just sucks you know?" Lilith whispered.

Reby walked over to Lilith and placed her hand on her chin raising her head up to eye level.

"Look, he's just upset is all, I mean he's being a bit of an asshole doing that to you. But you know he won't keep this up forever, he won't he loves you too much Lilly" Reby assured.

"I know, okay I'm done with all the self-pity now. What do you want to do tonight?" Lilith asked with a little more cheer in her voice.

"Well… there's kind of a surprise party at the Grey Lodge" Reby said looking a little nervous.

"A surprise party? For who?" Lilith questioned confused, she didn't recall it being anyone's birthday.

"Uh for you," Reby said sheepishly.

"Reby! Why would you tell me that you, blabbermouth!" Lilith whined.

"You know I can't keep secrets from you! I don't even know why the boys even told me!" Reby cried out trying to defend herself.

"Yeah me either, you can't keep shit from me" Lilith laughed.

All of a sudden we heard someone yelling then it being quiet and yelling again. Lilith and Reby looked at each other confused and went to go see where the shouting was coming from. When they got to the source they peaked over a corner and saw Moxley yelling to the cameraman cutting a promo.

"Do you see what that she did to her!" Moxley bellowed.

The cameraman cut to Trina's face her nose had remnants of dried blood on it. Her bottom lip was swollen and had a couple of stitches. Her eye was starting to turn black, and blue. The cameraman turned back to Moxley after getting a good look at Trina's beaten face.

"That girl is going to get what's coming to her! Trina will end her if it's the last thing she does! I mean Jesus look at her face, I don't even know if I can even look at her anymore! Let alone fuck her… Well I mean unless it's doggy style with a paper bag over her head" Moxley exclaimed while Trina looked at him mortified. Lilith was trying to stifle her laugh while Reby was smacking her on the arm telling her to shut up.

Moxley heard whispering and moved out of the camera's way and looked around the corner to see the two girls whispering to each other when they looked up to see they've been caught. They looked like two little kids about to get in trouble with their mother.

"Uh oh" Reby exclaimed.

"Ah, fuck me" Lilith groaned.

"Is that an invitation?" Jon asked with a smirk on his face.

Maybe okay no what's wrong with you today. Mental note get laid. But… You know with this lighting he looks kind of… hot.

"You wish bud," Lilith said with feigned disgust.

I am also disgusted with myself for thinking this guy is even remotely attractive I mean look at him he looks like he crawled out of a dumpster.

"Jon we need to finish this promo up" The cameraman stated annoyed.

"This isn't over" Jon stated with a wink.

"Oh yes it is bud," Lilith said with a wink of her own.

Jon lingered on for a couple of seconds looking at Lilith, while Lilith looked at Jon annoyed. With that, he turned around and continued with his promo. Reby and Lilith walked away towards the locker room Reby kept looking at Lilith with a look that could kill. She stopped Reby in her tracks and stepped in front of her.

"Okay, what's your problem?" Lilith questioned with an attitude.

Reby licked her teeth "Oh I don't know, didn't I tell you to stay away from Moxley?" Reby questioned her with the same amount of attitude.

"What the fuck are you talking about you were there too! If you wanted me to stay away so much why didn't you pull me away from the dude." Lilith stated feeling as if that was the end of the argument.

"Oh no that's not what I mean, what I mean is, why the fuck were you flirting with him?" Reby asked raising her eyebrows.

"Okay woah, what the hell are you talking about that wasn't flirting at all, in any universe," Lilith said, though she even questioned herself at that moment.

Well, maybe I was so what, there's nothing wrong with some shameless sarcastic flirting!

"Mmmhmm sure you weren't," Reby said with a stern look on her face and walked away.

"I wasn't!" Lilith shouted as she walked down the hallway.

Stop lying to yourself

Lilith slumped on the wall and sighed the whole way down. Great now everyone's mad at me way to go, Lilly, you screw up everything on your first day back. Gold star for you. She felt her phone vibrating in the pocket of her hoodie. She looked at the screen and saw the name Jeffy, with a picture of them as kids. The picture always made her smile. She swiped to answer and held the phone to her ear.

"Hey Lilly," Jeff said sweetly.

"Hey Jeff," Lilith said in the same tone.

Jeff sighed "I'm sorry for sending you to voicemail earlier I was just-"

Lilith cut him off "It's fine I deserved it," she said a matter of factly.

"No you didn't I was being a dick and I'm sorry," he said sincerely.

"I'm sorry too, I missed you," Lilith said kindly.

"I missed you too you jerk" Jeff laughed.

"You're an asshole" Lilith laughed back.

A stagehand came up to Lilith and gestured to her that she was on in ten minutes. She mouthed thank you to him.

"Hey Jeff I'm on in ten minutes I've got to go, but I'll call you soon okay?" she said with assurance in her voice.

"Alright talk to you later Lillypad, love you," Jeff said.

"Love you too," Lilith said sweetly and hung up.

Lilith stood up and made her way to the curtain waiting to make her entrance, Jon and Trina walked up shortly after. Trina avoided eye contact with Lilith as much as she could. Lilith gave herself a mental pat on the back.

"See you out there dollface," Jon said with a wink.

His music hit and they both made they're way out to the ring, Lilith couldn't count how many times he licked her face. Lilith balled up her fists.

Why am I jealous, no really why, are you dumb or just an idiot? Do you want a death wish for your love life?

Lilith continued to have a mental argument with herself until the stagehand signaled that it was her time to head out. She shook out these thoughts and readied herself for something that she's always dreamed of.

Her theme music blasted through the building she came out doing the bow down motion, the whole bowed down, some shouting "we're not worthy!". She slid into the ring and climbed up to the top turnbuckle, taking off her hoodie and banging her head to the music. She climbed down and spun around to see Jon still by Trina's side. Lilith moved toward Trina, but Jon stepped in front of her.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Lilith asked getting angrier by the second.

"It's called a distraction sweety," Jon said with a smile.

"Wha-" Before Lilith could even get the full word out she got smacked in the head from what it seems to be Trina's hell.

Oh that dirty bitch

Lilith regained her composure and spun around to see Trina frightened. She started toying with her throwing a punch but never connecting. Lilith laughed seeing her flinch.

Playtimes over

Lilith cracked her knuckles and punched Trina in the nose again as stiff as she could. She stumbled back and Lilith pushed her to the ropes and gave her 6 chops to the chest. Trina fell to her knees and started to beg and plead to her. Lilith bent down to Trina and grabbed her hair to make Trina look at her.

"Sweetie I know you've spent your whole life on your knees, but now's not the time to do so. We've got a show to do." Lilith said with a condescending tone

Trina spat in Lilith's face at the comment. Great now I have the clap, she thought to herself. Lilith wiped the spit off her face, and snaked her arm around Trina's head and delivered a DDT. She decided that wasn't enough for her, she grabbed Trina's legs and put her into a sharpshooter. Lilith went so far back into it that her back touched Trina's. Trina slammed the mat as many times as she could signaling the end of the match. The ref called for the bell and grabbed Lilith off of Trina. Trina laid on the floor holding her back and Lilith decided to take something out of Jon's book. She stepped over Trina and motioned her hand to her pelvis. She stepped away from Trina and looked over to Jon who gave her a big cheesy smile and wink. She smiled back but only for a split second. Trina yelled for Moxley over and over, until he rolled his eyes and dragged her out of the ring towards backstage. Lilith did a little curtsy and exited the ring while fans cheered her on.

Reby was waiting for Lilith backstage. Reby looked at her very intense look, then it faded and gave her a big smile.

"You did great Lilly," Reby said and hugged her.

"Thanks, Reb, now let's go get shit faced," She said cheerfully.
