-Chapter 07-
The next morning, Jordan woke up at 7 and she decided to take a shower before heading to her uncle's room. She dressed in a black fitted tee that had the words Spoiled Brat on it in silver cursive letters, a pair of tight low rise jeans and black k×swiss. Then she blow dried her hair and straightened it before she put all her stuff in her suitcase. She grabbed her purse and her phone along with the key card and headed down to her uncle's room. She knocked on the door when she got there and leaned against the wall before her uncle opened the door.
"Hey Jor! Are you ready to head out?"
"Yeah, I just need to get a latte from Starbucks and I should be fine the rest of the day." Jordan rubbed her eyes.
"Late night huh?" Jordan nodded, "What time did you get in?"
"I think it was like 2 or 3 when I got back." Jordan yawned and covered her mouth.
"Doesn't a full breakfast sound better than just a latte from Starbucks?"
"Nope, we can just have lunch when we get to Kansas City. I figure by the time we get there, my stomach will be asking for food. I could really go for a latte right now though." Jordan hinted.
"All right sweetheart, let me just brush my teeth and we can head down to the limo. It should be waiting for us down at the entrance. Go wait in the lobby for me."
"All right, I'll be down there then. Hurry though because if I don't get my latte, you don't want to see me for the rest of the day." Jordan laughed and her uncle gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"I'll hurry up." Vince closed the door and Jordan went down to the lobby.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
John and Randy were in the lobby waiting for the limo to pick them up. John would be going to Rosemont early and Randy would be going to Kansas City for SmackDown.
"So you heading to Rosemont today John?" Randy asked.
"No. I have to go to Nashville tonight for the Nashville Star. Then I'll be in Rosemont. I'll see you in on Wednesday right?" John asked.
"Yeah, we should go get some breakfast before we have to go then." Randy replied.
"All right." John started to get up but he saw Jordan coming down the hall, "On second thought, breakfast can wait. I'm hungry for something else instead." John winked.
Randy turned around and saw Jordan coming down the hall, "For once, I agree with you."
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Jordan walked down to the lobby and when she got there, she saw Randy and John looking at her. She walked to the lobby and walked over to them.
"Hey Randy, John. How are you?"
"Good, how are you Jor?" Randy replied first.
"Great and you John? Are you hung over from last night?" Jordan chuckled softly.
"Hung over? Did I drink that much last night?" John asked confused.
Randy laughed, "You should of seen yourself John. You were drinking a lot. Jordan and I had to carry you to the car and back to your hotel room."
John blushed, "I'm sorry you saw me like that Jordan. I don't know what came over me."
"I do." A person said from behind.
Jordan turned around and noticed her cousin, "Steph!" Jordan hugged her tightly and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Stephanie laughed, "Nice to see you too Jor. How was last night? Did you have fun?"
"Yeah, it was really fun. I had fun dancing with Randy and John, except for John couldn't keep up with me so it sucked. Then Randy came in and he danced with me." Jordan smiled.
"I see." Stephanie gave John 'The look,' "So Jor, are you ready to head to Kansas City with my dad?"
"Yeah but I told him if he didn't hurry up and get me a latte, he wouldn't want to speak to me for the rest of the day. I have to have something every morning or you definitely don't want to bother me for the rest of the day." Jordan shrugged.
"Oh, right. I remember. I remember that time we were going to the mall and then we didn't get you a latte and what you did to that poor boy, you-"
Jordan interrupted her, "Anyway Steph. You should leave now. Aunt Linda's calling you, see?"
Stephanie noticed her mom calling her, "You got lucky Jor, you won't get away from me next time."
Jordan smacked her arm playfully and shoved her over to the limo where her mom was standing, "See you in Rosemont tomorrow Steph. Love you." Jordan smiled and walked back over to John and Randy. She noticed her uncle was already in the lobby so she decided to say bye to the guys, "I have to go now. I'll see you tomorrow in Rosemont, John, and I'll see you tonight in Kansas City." She said, "Bye guys." Jordan blew them a kiss and walked over to her uncle.
"I'm ready now. We should hurry up and get my latte so we can have some lunch before we go to the arena." Jordan said.
"Is your latte the only thing you think about Jor?" She nodded and he laughed before they got in the limo and the driver placed their suitcases in the trunk.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Randy and John went to their car rentals and they headed to their destination. John had to ride with Stephanie to catch his flight in Rosemont to Nashville since Paul had already left for an early autograph signing and John was the only one left in the hotel. 'Oh great, now Stephanie's going to talk to me about Jordan. Just what I need right now.'
John and Stephanie got in his rental car and he tried to ignore her the whole way to Rosemont until Stephanie decided to break the silence.
"John what is up with you? Are you trying to ignore me or something?"
"I'm not trying to ignore you. I'm just focusing on the road." John said flatly.
"I know what's wrong with you John. I saw the looks that you were giving my cousin and Randy last night when they were dancing. I saw that jealous look in your eyes. You like her don't you?" Steph asked.
"She's a gorgeous woman. How could I not like her?" John replied.
"No, I mean you like her in the way that you want to get to know her more." Stephanie said.
"Sure I want to get to know her, who wouldn't? Jordan's a very interesting woman." He replied.
"I know you like her, John. Why don't you tell me already?" She insisted.
"Fine, I like her. Is that what you want? When I saw her, I knew there was something special about her and I instantly felt attracted to her. She's one of a kind, after talking to her and getting to know her, I knew I had to get to her." John said trying to catch his breath.
"I knew it." Stephanie said.
"Then why'd you ask me?" He asked angrily.
"I just wanted to hear it from your lips. Now that I know, I'm going to tell Jor." Stephanie said, getting her phone out.
John pulled over to the side and took Stephanie's phone from her, "Don't do that Steph. I don't want her to know. She might freak out and not talk to me anymore."
"Whatever John but if you don't tell her by the time she has to go back to Hammond, I'm going to tell her myself." Stephanie said before taking her phone back and shoving it in her purse. She took out her i-pod and listened to it all the way to Rosemont.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Vince and Jordan had already gotten their lattes from Starbucks and were halfway to Kansas City. Jordan was listening to music on her i-pod and Vince was looking through some files. Soon Jordan got tired of listening to music and she put her i-pod away.
"So Uncle Vince, what am I doing tonight for SmackDown?" Jordan asked.
"You can pass out the scripts for SmackDown again and just hang out like yesterday. I'm sure I won't need you for something else. You can hang out in catering with the divas there." He said.
"Okay, that sounds good." Jordan said.
"Tired honey?" He asked.
"A bit, I didn't work out this morning. I kind of woke up late so I didn't have the chance to do so." Jordan said, "I guess I won't be able to work out till we get to Rosemont since we're not staying at a hotel today."
"There's some work out stuff at the arena so you can do that if you'd like." He said.
"I would but I don't like to be seen working out so I think I'll just pass and work out as soon as we get to Rosemont." Jordan said before leaning her head against the window and closing her eyes.
"Whatever you'd like Jor." He said before he noticed that she had fallen asleep.
-A while later-
They had arrived to Kansas City soon after Jordan had fallen asleep and Vince decided to wake her up so they could get some lunch. He shook her but she wouldn't wake up.
"Jor, sweetheart?" He said.
She started to stir and she finally opened her eyes, "Are we here already?"
"Yeah. You fell asleep Jor. You want to get some lunch?" He asked.
"Yeah, I'm hungry. Let's go to McDonald's or something." She said.
"Are you sure you don't want to go to a restaurant instead?"He asked.
"No, I'm craving McDonald's. I haven't had a Big Mac for like two months. I think I deserve one, don't you?" She asked while batting her eyelashes and pouting.
"All right, let's go to McDonald's." He told her before he helped her out the limo and they got something to eat.
When they finished eating, they headed to the arena. By that time, it was already 2 O'clock so SmackDown wouldn't be starting for another 4 hours. When they got there, Jordan followed her uncle to his office and on the way there, they bumped into Randy Orton.
"Hey Jor!" He said.
"Hi Randy." Jordan said sheepishly while tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
Vince felt the tension between the two so he decided to get Jordan away from Randy, "Jor, let's go sweetheart. We need to go get the scripts so you can pass them out to the divas and the superstars."
"All right. I'll see you later Randy." Jordan said before she followed her uncle to the office.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Jordan followed her uncle into the office and sat down in one of the chairs in front of the desk. She looked at him intently as he got out the scripts for the SmackDown superstars from his briefcase.
"Here are the scripts for tonight Jor. Go pass them out to the superstars." Vince said.
"All right, I'll be back as soon as I get them out to them." Jordan smiled and walked out of the office with the scripts in hand. She passed them out to several guys in the locker room once they were decent. She passed the other ones to the divas in their locker room and went to catering to find the rest of the guys.
When she got there, she saw a couple of guys there and she gave them their scripts. She then saw Randy sitting alone at a table in the corner drinking water. She walked over to his table and stood in front of him.
"Hey Randy. Can I sit down?" Jordan asked.
Randy looked up, "Sure, go ahead."
"Thanks." Jordan said. She handed him his script for tonight, "That's your script for tonight. You should have enough time to go over your lines."
"Thank you Jor. So what are you doing?" Randy asked.
"I'm just passing out the scripts before the show. Do you always do this before the show?"
"Yeah pretty much." He said, "So you doing anything tomorrow night?"
"Not that I know of. Why?" She asked.
"I don't know. I thought maybe you'd like to go out with me tomorrow night." He said.
"Sure, that sounds fun." She said smiling.
"Jordan!" A voice behind her called.
"Oh crap, that's my uncle. I better go see what he wants. So I'll see you later or tomorrow morning in Rosemont. Bye." Jordan said before she got up and followed her uncle.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
When Jordan got to her uncle's office, she stood in front of him and waited for him to talk to her.
"Jordan, I have something to tell you about the show tonight." Vince said.
"What is it? What's wrong?" She asked.
"You know Tony Chimmel right?" He asked.
"Isn't that the announcer guy?" She asked.
"Yeah, that's him. Something urgent came up and he couldn't make it so we're going to need a replacement for him tonight. I can't go out there because I'm only supposed to be showing up on Raw and I have no one else that can do it." He told her.
Jordan eyed him curiously, "So what are you saying?"
"I need you to go out there and announce the matches and the winners at the end of the show. I basically need you to do what Tony does every Tuesday. Can you do that for me?" He asked putting his hands on her shoulders.
"I don't know Uncle Vince. I don't know what each wrestler and diva's in ring name is. I don't know where they're from, I don't know how much they weigh if that's needed and I don't know how to announce the type of matches. I'm not the best person for this job. Couldn't you just ask Tazz or Michael Cole to do it?" She asked nervously.
"They need to do commentary Jor. Please do it for me sweetheart?" He asked hopefully.
Jordan decided to do it, "All right. I'll do it but I have a script to do this right?"
"Of course, here it is. Rehearse it and then come back here an hour before the show starts so you can get dressed, get your make up done, your hair and whatever they need to do. Then come to my office and Tazz and Michael will take you out there so you can get ready for the show." He told her.
"All right. I just hope the nerves don't kick in right when the show starts." Jor said.
"They won't Jor. You're a McMahon, well technically a Roybal first but you get it. McMahons aren't scared of going out there in front of a crowd to do what they need to do. You can do it too sweetheart." Vince said.
"You're right. I'm going to go study these and be back by 7 for all that stuff you said." Jordan said before hugging him and heading out the door to practice her lines.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Jordan sat on a crate rehearsing her lines and trying to go over them. She could have the script with her to look it if she needed it but that was only during commercial break when the camera wasn't aiming at her.
"Ugh! I'm never going to learn these lines by the time for the show. What am I going to do? I never should of agreed to doing this crap." Jordan said to herself.
"You know talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity." A voice behind her said.
"What?" She asked before looking up.
"They say talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity." He repeated, "What's up?"
"Funny Randy!" She said, "I'm just stressing over these freaking lines I have to learn in like 2 hours and I'm not going to know them by then. I don't know why I have to do this crap."
"What crap?" He asked.
"I have to announce the matches because Tony Chimmel couldn't make it so I'm basically screwed." She told him.
"Jor, don't worry so much. You'll do fine. I can help you with your lines if you want." He offered.
"But, don't you have to study your lines?" She asked.
"I know most of them. I can finish up when we're done with yours. Come on, I have a place that will give you good practice and that can boost your confidence." He said before taking her hand in his and leading her down the hall. He took her to the ring and took her where she would be sitting later, "I thought by practicing where you will be later tonight you could reduce your stress."
"I don't know how this is going to help but I'm trusting you." She said.
"Good, follow me then." He said.
Randy brought her to where she was going to be sitting first and then he told her to go up to the ring like she would be announcing a match. Then he told her to come back down and sit like she would during a match. After that he told her to stand up to announce the winner of the match.
"That's what I have to do when SmackDown starts?" She asked.
"Yeah, pretty much. What you showed me up there, it's great. Just study over your lines before each match and you should do good. I think you're ready for this." He told her.
"Thank you so much for helping me Randy." She said before rushing up to hug him and give him a kiss on the cheek. They held each other in their arms and were slowly leaning towards each other. Jordan could feel the tension and the heat rising between them. Just as they were getting closer, someone called Jordan once again.
"I have to go. I'll see you after SmackDown or in Rosemont tomorrow." She said before giving him another kiss on the cheek.
He watched as she walked away and he put his hand on his cheek where it was still burning from the kiss she had given him, "Every time we get close, Vince ends up taking her away from me. If I didn't know any better, I would say he didn't want me anywhere near her." He walked to his locker room with that thought still in mind.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
"So what was that about between you and Randy down there?" He asked her.
"What do you mean? He was just helping me for tonight. Some of the nerves I had are now gone." Jordan smiled, "And I owe it all to him Uncle Vince."
"Jordan, there's something you should know about him first before you get any closer-" He was interrupted by a loud ringing.
"Oh that's my phone. Let me get it. We'll continue this conversation later." She grabbed her phone from her purse and held the phone to her ear, "Hello."
"Hey Jor!" A cheery voice on the other side said.
"Heather! Hey love, how are you?" She asked.
"I'm doing good. I miss hanging with you though." Heather said.
"I know, I do too. How are things in the studio?" She asked.
"Things are going great Jor. You've gotten a lot of calls already though." She said.
"Who are they from?" She asked.
"Let's see, Christina Milian and Aguilera, Britney, Chris Brown, Omarion and a couple others. Oh yeah Brooke Hogan called too." She said looking through pages where she had written their names down.
"I'll have to get back to them on Monday. Did they ask where I was?" She asked.
"I told them you took a week off for relaxation and you would be back on Monday. That's all I told them." She smiled.
"Thanks Heather. I love you." She said.
"Me too. So what have you done so far?" She asked intrigued.
"Well I went to Monday night Raw last night and went out on a date with John Cena. Today I'm at the SmackDown taping. Nothing interesting yet." She smiled at her uncle.
"You can't tell me you haven't been hanging out with some of those sexy guys that work for your uncle?"
Jordan smiled, "Well…" She decided against telling her about it with her uncle in the same room, "I'll tell you about it later."
"Why can't you tell me right now Jor?" She asked.
"Mon uncle est en le salle. Je te dis a demain." She said in French knowing her uncle wouldn't understand.
"D'accord." Heather paused when she heard the front door of the studio open and people walking into the studio, "I have to go now Jor. The teenagers just arrived for their lesson. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Love you."
"I love you too." Jordan said before she hung up the phone, "So what time is it Uncle Vince?"
"It's already 6 O'clock so you still have an hour before the show starts." Vince paused and turned back around remembering something, "Jor, did you just speak French?"
"Yeah, I learned in college. I thought you knew." She said shrugging.
"What did you say?" He asked.
"Nothing, don't worry about it. I'll see you before the show starts." She said before kissing his cheek and heading to catering. She walked there and didn't see Randy. She sat down at one of the tables and started reading through her lines. She never noticed the person that sat in front of her. She finally looked up, "Hi."
"Hey, I'm Kristal." She said before sticking her hand out in front of her.
Jordan shook her hand, "I'm Jordan but you can call me Jor."
"Are you a new diva?" She asked.
"Oh no! I'm just here helping my uncle out." Jordan said.
"Not to be nosy but who's your uncle?" Kristal asked.
"Vince McMahon. I know it's pretty weird but he's my mom's brother. He's actually a better person than what he makes out on tv. He's not that asshole millions of viewers see every Monday on Raw." She smiled sweetly.
"Do you ever get any comments because he's your uncle?" She asked.
"I don't tell anyone that he's my uncle since my last name is Roybal. I don't tell them my full name." She shrugged.
"That's good. So why are you here hanging out by yourself?"
"I just came to review my lines for the show tonight. Tony Chimel couldn't do it so I'm announcing the matches for SmackDown. It should be fun, as long as I do everything right." She smiled.
"You don't seem too happy about it." She mentioned.
"I've never been in front of so many people. I teach people lessons and they watch me dance but I've never done it in a huge crowd of like 5, 000 WWE crazed fans." She said.
"Don't worry about it. You'll do fine." She smiled at her, "So where are you from?"
"I'm from Hammond, Indiana. I studied there at Indiana University and then I opened up my own dance studio with the help of my friend Heather." Jordan told her.
"That's really cool. I wish I had the dance moves." Kristal said.
"I can help you with them if you'd like."
"That would be great. Next time we go to a club, you have to show me." Kristal assured her.
"I will don't worry." Jordan looked at her watch, "Oh well, it's about time for me to go. I have to go find my uncle before I go into wardrobe and make up. I'll see you later." Jordan said before she walked out of catering.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Jordan walked down the halls to her uncle's office. When she got there, her uncle was nowhere to be found. She walked to the desk and picked up a note.
Jor,
I had to go take care of something really quick. I'll be back before SmackDown starts to talk to you. Go into wardrobe and make up down the hall to the second door on the left. I'll see you before the show at the guerilla.
Love,
Uncle Vince
"All right then. I better go now if I want to be on time for the show." Jordan said before she left the room.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
When Jordan got to the wardrobe and make up room, she knocked on the door and waited for someone to open the door. No one answered so she knocked again and a woman with long blonde hair and blue eyes opened the door.
"You must be Jordan." She said smiling. Jordan nodded, "I'm Rebecca."
"Nice to meet you." Jordan said as she shook her hand, "My uncle told me to come down here for wardrobe and make up." She said.
"Well come right in. Let's get your wardrobe first and then we'll work on your make up and hair." She said before pulling Jordan in the room and closing the door behind them.
As soon as Jordan got in the room, she noticed more women working on divas and others sitting down on various couches talking and drinking water. Others were eating and some were busy doing other stuff.
"All right, now let's see what we can find for you here." Rebecca said before going through stuff on racks, "What do you want to wear?"
"I don't mind. I wear dresses, skirts, jeans, anything. Whatever works better for the show." She said.
"That's good. Let me see what I can find for you." Rebecca said before going through more racks of clothes. She came back after a while and handed her some clothes, "Try these on and then come out so I can see what you look like."
Jordan nodded and took the clothes behind a fitting screen. When she came back out, she waited for the woman to turn back around.
Rebecca turned around and looked at Jordan, "You look splendid. I think that's the right look for you. Let me go see if Diana is ready for you and I'll come get you."
Jordan nodded and she decided to see what she looked like so she walked over to the mirror. When she saw herself, she was wearing a ruby red halter top with bright ruby pearls that went around to the back of her neck and underneath it was a silver jewel bra that was visible through the top of the halter top. She had a short denim miniskirt with a silver belt and to complete the outfit, she wore the red high heels with a silver heart on the ends of the straps.
Rebecca came back, "Diana is ready for you now. Follow me."
Jordan followed her and saw a woman with short brown hair and gray eyes standing behind a chair. She sat on the chair and watched as Diana worked on her hair.
"All right sweetheart, I think I have a perfect hairdo for you. Sit tight and I'll be done soon." Diana said smiling.
"Okay." Jordan replied.
Diana worked on Jordan's hair for a good 30 minutes and when she was done, Jordan looked straight at the mirror and noticed Diana was done.
"All right Jordan. I'm done. What do you think?" She asked.
Jordan looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her hair was curled but not too much and it hung loosely below her shoulders. She smiled, "I like it a lot. Thank you so much."
"You're welcome sweetheart. Now follow Rebecca and she'll take you to make up." Diana said.
Jordan got up from the chair and followed Rebecca to another part of the room where there were women working on other divas for the show. She sat down in a chair and watched as a woman with red hair and blue eyes started working on her make up. She worked on her hair for about 10 minutes and then she finished. Jordan opened her eyes and noticed her make up. She had a light layer of blush, light lipgloss, glitter on the side of her eyes, and a light color of eyeshadow on. She stood up and looked at her complete reflection in the mirror.
"Thank you so much. I love it." Jordan said.
"You're welcome." The three women replied in unison.
"Well I better go down to the guerilla to go see my uncle. Thanks again." Jordan said before she walked out of the room.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Randy was walking down the hall with Rey talking about the show which would be starting in about 10 minutes.
"So do you have all your lines down Randy?" Rey asked.
"Yeah, I practiced them several times." He said.
"So you don't have a match tonight huh?" Rey asked.
"Nope, I got it good. I only come out for a segment and then for the RKO but I end up getting the ankle lock by Kurt." Randy answered.
"Well enjoy it while you can man because on Sunday you got a match on the grandest stage of them all." Rey said.
"Yeah, I know." Randy said.
"So how are things with Kel?" He asked.
"They're great. She wants to get married soon." Randy answered.
"That's great man. So you bringing her on Friday for the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony?" Rey asked.
"Yeah, she arrives in Rosemont tomorrow night. The driver is going to pick her up from the airport." He said smiling.
"That's cool. My wife and my kids won't be here till Friday night." Rey said.
Jordan was walking down the hall and as soon as Randy looked away from Rey, he saw her. 'Oh my good god. She's fucking hot.' He thought. Jordan smiled as she walked by them.
Rey had been trying to get Rey's attention, "Dude? Randy? Orton!" Rey said.
"What?" Randy snapped out of it.
"What's up?" He asked.
"Nothing. I'll catch you later. I gotta go do something first." Randy said before he walked off to find Jordan.
"Oh great, he's been hypnotized by another pair of tits and a great ass." Rey said to himself before shaking his head and walking down the hall to the locker room to get his belt.
O-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-O
Jordan stood at the guerilla waiting for her uncle to come by. She was going over her lines in her head. Then someone put their hands over her eyes.
"Guess who?" The voice said.
Jordan knew who it was but she decided to mess with him, "Could it be the hawtest guy in the WWE?"
Randy smirked, "That's right, now what's his name?"
"Hmm…I know who it is! It's John Cena right?" She asked. Randy took his hands off her eyes. She turned around and saw the look on his face. She knew she had gotten the best of him, "I'm kidding Randy, you're the sexiest man in the WWE."
"That's what I thought." Randy smirked.
"So what are you doing here?" She asked.
"I have to be here to get ready for when I come out in about 20 minutes." He said, "You look gorgeous by the way."
Jordan blushed, "Thanks, you look great too."
"Jor!" A voice behind her called her.
She turned around and noticed her uncle, "Hey Uncle Vince." She said, "I'll talk to you later."
Randy nodded and walked away. 'Great, every time I get near her or have some alone time with her, he has to come interrupt. If I didn't know any better, I would think that he's trying his hardest to keep her away from me.' He thought.
"So are you ready for the show Jor?" He asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." She smiled.
He looked at her appearance, "You look great sweetheart."
"Thank you Uncle Vince." Jordan said.
A man came to Vince and talked him before he turned back around, "Jor, honey. SmackDown is about to start so you should go out there and get ready so the show starts."
Jordan took a deep breath, "All right here goes." She said before her uncle hugged her and she opened the curtain.
Please review.
Thanks. :)
