A New Age
Chapter 4: Do You Think I'm Sexy?
After the Smackdown show went off the air, the fans filed out and the superstars began to go to the hotels that they stayed in to prepare to go to their hotels for the next city. The Revolution just had their debuts on the major WWE shows, Raw and Smackdown. They were waiting for their verdicts.
"I think I did pretty damn good." Steve said.
"Says the dude that kissed AJ out of the blue." Becky retorted.
"Wrestling is acting, okay? I know it wasn't in the script, but I wanted to show AJ that I can be just as crazy as she is." Steve said back.
"You wanted to kiss her, didn't you?" Ashley said, while smiling.
"Yeah. Guilty. Haha. She's hot. What do you expect?" Steve said back.
"Hey, everybody, listen up. Great job tonight by Dante, Paul, Ashley, yes, and Steve. The rest will have your debuts later on, on Main Event, Superstars, and next week's Raw and Smackdown. Steve, I liked the way that you wanted to keep it edgy by kissing AJ, but you need to keep it PG. You can do it without cursing so much." Booker said.
"It wasn't in the script, man. I guess we'll just have to edit the storyline. But I see something with you. You want to start a new era, huh? A new edgy, young, hungry era? I see that with you. I see that with all of you. Good job this week." Booker said, then left.
"See, told you. Shouldn't have done that." Becky said.
"All right. I'll clean it up. I'll catch up with y'all later." Steve said, then went to the locker room to change.
Steve was walking to the locker room, where she got caught by Kaitlyn.
"Oh, hey, Steve. Great job out there."
"Thanks." Steve said shyly. Kaitlyn was one of his Diva crushes as a fan. He had her as his cell phone wallpaper.
"Though you could've did it without the kiss." She said.
"Yeah, they told me..."
"Yeah, Steve, but I understand what you're doing. I admire that, but the attitude era ain't coming back. You can be edgy without being vulgar..." Kaitlyn got interrupted by Jackie. They both turned around.
"Hey, Steve. Kaitlyn, can I talk to you for a sec?" Jackie said.
"Sure. Steve, I'll talk to you later." Kaitlyn said. Steve watched her leave with Jackie.
"Yo, Dr. Steve! You coming or not?" Dante said.
"Yeah, man. I'm coming. I'll catch up." Steve said while going into the locker room. He quickly showered and changed his clothes and rushed out to join his comrades.
"All right, we'll be at the bar, bro." Steve nodded.
"Steve..." Steve turned his head.
"Oh, Jackie. What's up?"
"Can we talk?" Jackie said, with a concerned look on her face.
"Yeah, what's up?" Steve said, walking to her.
"Do you think I'm sexy?" Jackie asked.
Steve was startled by the question. That was blunt, he thought. His brain went back to where they were in college. They've been friends since elementary school. He had a thing for her back then. He came back to reality, and said:
"Jackie, why would they even hire you if you're not even confident in yourself? WWE is home of the sexiest, most powerful women in the world. So... to answer your question, yes. Sure, you look a little different than the other women here, but you had great training from Kaitlyn, and besides, this ain't a beauty contest. This is wrestling. You need to have more confidence in your body and yourself. Yes, you're sexy. You're beautiful. But the thing is, do you think you are?" Steve said in his soliloquy.
"Thanks, Steve." Jackie said.
"You're welcome. Keep calm, and stay sexy. Doctor's orders." Steve said, chuckling. "I'm working on my catchphrase. Is that good?"
"Yeah. Great." Jackie said laughing.
"Let's go, they're waiting." Steve said, putting his arm over her shoulder. Steve wasn't trying to be romantic, because Jackie had just gotten out of a relationship recently. He didn't want to ask her out just yet. She was just a friend. Steve looked back for a second and caught Kaitlyn looking at them from behind, they had eye contact for a split second. Kaitlyn mouthed "awww" then smiled and winked. Steve blushed a little and smiled back.
"What's that smile for?" Jackie said.
"Oh, nothing."
They walked out of the arena arm around each other, which sparked a wonderful friendship again.
