Don't own anything just Lily and Raquel. Also in the story TNA tapes once a week. Hope ya'll enjoy!
Raquel was really regretting being stubborn right about now, but more than that she hated the fact that Jerry Lynn was right. She was trying to find the Knockout locker room, Jerry had told one of the guys to walk her to it knowing she would get lost. But Raquel being herself said that she could find it on her own and walked out without even asking how to get there. She reached in to her bag to get her cell phone so Jerry could hopefully tell her how to find the locker room. She dialed his number only to find she didn't have service in the Impact Zone.
"Stupid fucking phone" She threw the phone down the hall, amazingly it didn't fall apart "Stupid Jerry fucking Lynn 'I'm the new f'n show,'" She said mocking Jerry's ECW nickname "Why does he always have to be right and why the fuck does the world hate me?"
"I hear someone cussing and being over dramatic, must be Raquel Van Dam" Raquel heard a familiar voice say. She turned to see Mark LoMonaco (Brother Ray), Devon Hughes (Brother Devon) toward her
"How long have you two been there?" She asked
Devon laughed "Long enough to see your impersonation of Lynn. You shouldn't throw your phone around, stuff breaks you know" He picked up the phone and handed it to her, before giving her a hug
"I know" She sighed, hugging Mark "I can't find the fucking locker room"
"So you did sign with TNA" Mark said "We thought you'd go to the new WWE ECW"
"I thought about it, they even asked me to at One Night Stand. I don't know, I kind don't want to be 'Rob's little sister' again. I also like the schedule here. Besides," She said with a cheesy smile "You two are here"
Mark rolled his eyes as Devon laughed "Come on we'll walk you to the locker room"
Once Raquel finally made it to the locker room she found most of the other Knockouts were already there. She smiled when she saw a familiar red head "Christy!"
Christy Hemme turned around at the sound of her name "Quel!" She yelled running over to give Raquel a hug "What are you doing here?"
"I work here now" Raquel said smiling
"Raquel?" Raquel looked over to see Gail Kim walking in "I heard someone say that you signed with us"
"Who'd you hear that from?" She asked giving Gail a hug
"Mark and Devon where telling Christian Cage how you got lost trying to find the locker room" She laughed
"Great, now everyone is going to know that"
"Raquel, this is Jackie Moore" Christy said pointing to the other woman
"Christy" Raquel said, rolling her eyes "I already know Jackie"
"And this is Leticia Cline, the backstage interviewer" Christy continued, ignoring Raquel's remark "And this is Traci Brooks and Val Wyndham"
Raquel waved to the other women before turning to Christy "OK, I know you want to introduce me to everyone in the company and I promise I'll let you. But right now I need to get for the show"
"Fine, but I'm holding you to that promise. Everyone in here heard it"
--------------------------------------------
The next morning Raquel pulled her car into her driveway. After the taping she had been talked into going out to a club by Christy and Gail. Although she had regretted it at first, Raquel had a good time. She and Christy even managed to beat Chris Sabin and Lance Hoyt in a few games of pool.
"Hey, are you just getting home?" Raquel looked over to see her neighbor and John Cena's girlfriend Brittney
"Yeah, went out with some people from TNA last night. I signed a contract with them"
Brittney laughed "Congrats. But just so you know, John's been telling everyone you're going to sign with WWE"
"Please tell me you're kidding" Raquel said. Brittney shook her head "You cannot tell that boy anything, I swear he and Randy gossip more than we do. Was Raw good last night?"
"Speaking of John and Randy, I was just going to pick them up from the airport. And yes, Raw was good"
"So I'm guessing John won his match"
"You know it" Brittney smiled "I'll see you later"
Raquel walked in her house and sat on the couch. She had asked John to set her TiVo to tape Raw, hopefully he had set it right. She had just finished it when her phone rang.
"Raquel's shop of horror, how can I help you" She said on answering it
"Do you absolutely have to answer your phone like that?" Lily asked through the phone
"No" Raquel said using the remote to turn off the tv "but I like to"
"Whatever. What did you think of Raw last night?"
"I just finished watching it, nice painting"
"Thanks, it was fun. Hey come outside, Amy, Trish, and I need help with our stuff."
"What?"
"We are outside parked in your driveway and want help with our stuff" Lily said slowly
Raquel rolled her eyes and hung up the phone, walking outside.
"Not that I don't love you guys and don't want you hear" She said helping bring their bags inside "But, why didn't you tell me you were coming early?"
"We tried calling you last night" Trish said "But you didn't answer"
"Where were you?" Amy asked "You obviously weren't home because you were watching Raw today"
"I was in Orlando" Raquel said
"What were you doing there?"
"Well…"
