You Know It 2

Chapter 7


Cody and I made our way into the arena, gear bags firmly on our shoulders. We'd been rehearsing together for awhile already today. I had to admitt it was arWe made it to our locker room to find Dolph already inside. He wasn't on the card for tonight so he was wearing a suit with a pink v-neck underneath in typical Dolph fashion.

"Hey, babe," I said giving him a big kiss.

"Hello Blondie," he said happily. "Are you guys ready for the show?"

"Just about. I'm glad we practiced. Things will go easier now I bet."

"I definitely agree," Cody said confidently. "We are totally going to rock this tonight."

We changed into wrestling gear fairly quickly, changing with our backs to each other. Dolph seemed to keep an eye on Cody, making sure he didn't catch a peak of any inappropriate skin. It was just like him to be so protective of me.

"Are you ready for your match?" Dolph asked. I nodded and we walked hand in hand to the curtain.


My match against Layla was pretty uneventful. It was a squash match derived to make me look strong for next Sunday's pay per view. Dolph and I separated and I quickly made my way backstage to shoot my first segment involving the new coupling of Kofi and Alicia Fox.

"And action!" One of the camera crew belted out.

I began to strut through the corridor with my title perched on my shoulder. Suddenly, I'm ambushed by Alicia and Kofi. I took a barrage of hits before Cody came to the rescue. He tore Kofi away from me and delivered a cross Rhodes on him before removing Alicia as well. He knelt down beside me.

"Kelsey, are you okay?" he asked.

"I-I think so," I said a little out of breath. Cody stood up and offered me his hand.

"Let me help you up." I took hold of his hand and he slowly pulled me up.

"Thank you, for all of this…" I said politely.

"No thanks needed," he said reaching towards me, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. "I'll see you around," he said cryptically walking off. The camera did a close up of the confused look on my face.

"And cut! Great job guys!"

"Thank you very much," I said bowing obnoxiously.


I began walking towards the locker room. Cody walked up alongside me.

"So are we all good for later?" He asked.

"Yeah, I think so. I figure we can improvise as need be," I assured him.

"Good point. I've gotta go stretch out and stuff. I'll see you out there."

"Okay bye!" I shouted after him.

I rushed back to the locker room and changed from my wrestling gear into a slinky silver dress. I admired myself in the mirror.

"Wow," I heard from behind me. I spun around to see a smiling Dolph.

"I know right," I joked. He walked over gave me a kiss.

"So have you picked up your schedule for the next week?" He asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"Does yours match mine?"

"I think so, let me check." I scooted over to my bag and looked ay my packet. "It's all the same except for the radio show. I'm going to a different one from the look of it," I observed.

"Oh…" he said softly.

"What's wrong, Dolph? It's obvious something is bothering you."

"I'm fine. I was just curious. No worries," he said trying to assure me he was okay. I knew better but I also knew that it wasn't always wise to push him. He'd say something when he was ready.

"Okay. Want to head to catering to grab a little something before we go out there?" He nodded and we walked hand in hand to catering. We each grabbed a plate of food and sat down at a table. It wasn't long before Natalya plopped down next to us.

"How is my favorite blonde couple?" she squealed. I chuckled.

"Not too bad, just catching a small bite to eat before our last appearance tonight."

"Oh, I didn't know you had a match tonight, Dolph," she said sweetly.

"I-uh…I don't."

"It's Cody related," I added. Natalya nodded sensing that it might be an odd subject to breach. But Nattie being Nattie, couldn't resist asking about it.

"I did notice that he was showing up quite a bit in your segments. Any idea where this angle is going?" she asked innocently.

"No clue. They haven't given us a whole lot of information because I don't even think they know," Dolph said quickly.

"Essentially this is an experiment. They are playing it by ear. If we do well, they'll figure out where to take it if not, they kill the angle," I said with a shrug.

"Wow. I hope it goes well. At the very least, you guys will build even more of a female fan base. Girls love you Kelsey! Plus you will be working an angle with two pieces of eye candy!"

"Good point! How can this fail with logic like that!" I joked.

"Exactly…at least you got lucky. I got stuck with Khali and Hornswoggle. Children are the only ones who are watching that train wreck of an angle!" She said with a laugh. I heard Dolph chuckle.

"Yeah, I guess. But screen time is screen time!" I pointed out.

"Absolutely! Sadly this isn't my worst gimmick. That fart angle was awful."

"I remember that. It seems like a million years ago! I so thank my lucky stars I didn't get an angle like that!" Dolph added.

"You were a cougar's boy toy and at one time a male cheerleader!" I pointed out.

"Well played, Blondie," he said shaking his head.

"Oh I know!" I boasted.

"Well Ms. Smarty-pants, it's about time we headed to the curtain," Dolph said observantly checking out the clock.

"I guess it is. Bye Nattie! I'll see ya later!"


We headed off and soon arrived at the curtain. Cody was waiting there as was his opponent tonight, the Miz. Music played through the arena signaling the winner from the match that just took place which happened to be Zack. Minutes later he came through the curtain.

"Great job Zack," I congratulated him.

"Thanks. Don't fuck anything up you two," he joked.

"We'll try our best," I sing-songed.

The Miz's music hit and he headed out to the ring. Cody's music hit a few minutes later. We waved to us and headed out onto the stage. The bell started, signaling the beginning of the match. Now the waiting game begins. My cue was still a little ways out.

Cody and Miz were locked up in the center of the ring, fighting for control. I noticed that Dolph was quieter than usual.

"Are you feeling okay?" I asked him a little concerned.

"Yeah, just a little tired. I'm ready to go home and spend some quality time with you, relaxing. Maybe spend some time in the hot tub with a drink…" I smiled.

"That does sound nice, babe," I murmured. "Only like 36 hours and then we can do whatever you want…." I said giving him a kiss.

"Anything…." he said suggestively.

"Okay not anything, but I'm open to suggestions you perv!" I said with a giggle.

"Sounds good, Blondie," he conceded. I was a little relieved to just get that out of the way I think the travel schedule had him feeling a little worn out. I couldn't say I blamed him. He was a hot commodity in the industry but he wasn't one to complain. He'd worked hard to get where he is.

Finally, my cue had arrived.

I slowly strutted through the curtain and out onto the stage. I kept walking down the ramp in a cocky manner. The crowd began to react and the two wrestlers in the ring did as well. I sauntered a huge circle around the entire ring with a big smile on my face. Cody was down on the mat following a skull crushing finale. He went for the pin. I hopped up onto the apron. The referee saw me and walked over to the ropes.

I bickered with him, stalling. Miz got up and began to yell at me. I got in face right back.

"What are you doing?! Get out of here!" he yelled at me.

"Screw you! You aren't the boss of me!" I spat. I saw Cody rise to his feet. We made eye contact and he nodded. "You knwo what? Fine, I'll go," I conceded, jumping off of the apron. I moseyed over to the bottom of the ramp.

The Miz turned around only to be greeted with a missile dropkick in the chest, sending him to the ground. Cody moved to the top turnbuckle and waited for Miz to raise to his feet. Once he did he did a cross body. Upon hitting the ground, he immediately went for the pin. 1...2...3!

The bell rang and Cody was announced as the winner. I clapped feverishly. Cody looked over in my direction, acknowledging me with a wink and a smile. Thanks, I saw his say. I nodded. Suddenly, Dolph came up behind me.

"What the hell are you doing?" he shouted.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" I spat.

"I'M your client. Not Cody…now come on!" he said gripping my hand and leading me up the ramp. Like a child being scolded, I was begrudgingly dragged away.


Once we passed back through the curtain to the backstage, Dolph used his possession of my hand to twirl me around and then pull me close to him, dipping me. He laid a big kiss on my lips. As our lips broke from one another, my lips turned into a smile.

"I love you," he said softly.

"I love you too," I murmured. He pulled me back upright and we began heading towards our locker room.

"Let's go lock ourselves in our hotel room with tequila and movies?" he suggested.

"I'm sold."

"Glad we can agree on that."

"We agree all the time!" I shot back.

"Whatever you say, Blondie," he said with mock sarcasm. I shot him a dirty look. "Save the distain for the bedroom…."he joked. I tried to keep a straight face but just couldn't do it. I completely burst into laughter.

"You are lucky you are so hilarious….and good looking…" I teased.

"Oh I know and I use it to my advantage daily."

"That you do, babe," I said gripping his hand a little tighter.

We walked happily down the corridors. Despite how weird the last couple weeks had been for us, nights like tonight make me feel like everything is okay. The addition of Cody to our storyline hadn't exactly been smooth sailing for us as a couple, but I truly hoped it would work out…for all of us….
