AN: Hi guys! Here we are with chapter seven. Slight warning, this chapter starts in a pretty...well let's just say, hot place. Thanks to those who reviewed last chapter. I love reading what your reactions.

So without further ado,

Here's chapter 7!

Enjoy!

Paige pushed Wade against the wall and crashing her lips against his as they entered his hotel room. The Bad News anchor slid his arm around the young Brit's waist and spun her around. He let out a soft groan as Paige bit on his lower lip and eased her tongue into his mouth. They melded together, Paige's hands sliding into Barrett's jet black hair, seizing a part of his curls. Whatever was going through the Diva's mind Barrett was already thinking ahead. Pulling her top over her head, Barrett's lips reached for her neck and began trailing a number of kisses down her slim frame, stopping at the top of her jeans. Barrett's t-shirt soon joined Paige's on the floor second later. Paige pulled him up so she could bring her lips to his again and pushed him back towards the bed. But Barrett had other ideas in mind. Still in hold of her hand, he pulled her towards him and they crashed onto the floor.

"Oh, so you that kind of guy, huh?" Paige asked, teasing him slightly.

"Would you have me any other way?" he asked, as he pulled off her jeans.

"Well, that depends," Paige said seductively, lightly biting his ear.

"Oh yeah, on what?" Wade asked as his left a trail of kisses down Paige's stomach.

"On just how….oh!"

Wade couldn't help but smirk as Paige let out a gasp.

Her mind couldn't think as Barrett continued to explore Paige's inner depths with his tongue, the sensation running through her entire frame. She reached out and grabbed hold of the edge of the carpet. Her fingers tensing as she could feel herself get closer and closer to that climax. One last lash of his tongue and it sent her over the edge. The Diva's champ let out an overwhelming gasp and Wade felt her relax under his grasp. He let out a cool laugh as Paige tried to regain her breath and he moved up to her face, kissing her again.

"We've only just got started," Wade told her, taking one of her breasts into his mouth. Pushing Barrett away from him, the young Brit raised her eyebrow and smirked. She rolled him onto his back and straddled him. She leaned towards him, bringing their lips together again.

"If you think you're having a slow and sensual night, I'm afraid I've got some bad news." Barrett suggested, wriggling his eyebrows to Paige's dismay. The door creaked and Paige, alert as ever, immediately turned her attention to the door.

"And if you don't let go of that woman, I'm afraid I'm gonna have some bad news for you in just a few moments," the dark voice came from the door. The door was then kicked off the hinges all the way and in stepped a tower of a man.

"Who the bloody hell do you think you are, busting into my hotel room like this? Stupid Americans can't grasp the concept of privacy," Barrett complained as the man smirked. "Oh trust me, I understand the concept of privacy. But quite frankly for you Barrett, I just don't give a damn," the man smirked, stepping out of the shadows to reveal himself as the powerhouse of the Authority, the monster Kane.

Kane immediately stormed into the room, grasping Barrett by the throat, even if he didn't have any clothes on at the given moment, and tossed him into the wall. He delivered stiff lefts and rights, knocking him back onto the bed with a thunderous uppercut. Kane turned to his attention to Paige, his mug meaner than ever. "I suggest you gather your clothes and get the hell out of here. Seth's outside waiting for you," Kane said, turning his attention back to Barrett. "Hey Wade, did I ever tell you about the time I electrocuted a man's testicles? Well I'm afraid I've got some bad news for you," Kane said, rubbing his hands together as Paige quickly got the hell out that room.


"Listen, Vince, I'm going to have to call you back….business has arrived," Hunter said, hanging up.

Folding his arms, the two-toned native huffed and shook his head.

"Are you kidding me? "Business?" That's all this is to you?"

"Listen Se-"

"No, you listen. The next time you need to talk to me, don't send your retired redneck pal to do your dirty work. In fact, don't send either of your bald henchmen and that includes Finlay, Joey and Kane. You get up off your fucking corporate ass and come get me yourself!"

Seth didn't even give Hunter the time to respond, he stormed out of the office and headed out of the building. As he crossed the road towards his rental, his phone rang.

"Hello?" Seth answered, unlocking his car.

"We need to talk."

Seth opened his mouth to reply but no words came out. It was Sasha. The woman he hadn't spoken to or seen for weeks. What could he say?

"Hello?" Sasha asked after Seth didn't reply.

"Look, now isn't really a good tim-"

"Don't give me that, Seth," Sasha snapped.

Seth pulled a face as he realised the NXT Diva was more pissed off with him than he thought. He had gone through so much the last week or so, that she hadn't really come into his mind at all.

"I'll talk to you later, okay?"

"Whatever. You just do what you want to do, as always."

With that the Diva hung up and left him to figure out what to do next. Seth decided the best thing to do was go to the gym. The drive back to the hotel was a lot longer than usual and it frustrated the Architect. Just as he pulled into the car park, his phone rang again for the second time.

"Hello?"

"You might want to come upstairs, there's someone here to see you," Orton said to him.

"Oh yeah, let me guess, it's Kevin Nash pretending not to be involved with his "friend" again?"

Orton gruffed, clearly not impressed with Seth's joke.

"Someone even better, trust me. You'll know when you see her."

"Her?" Seth thought himself.

"Who are you talking about?" he asked.

"Just get up here and you'll find out won't you?"

Orton hung up before Seth could answer and Seth yelled in frustration. That was the second time today that someone had hung up on him without him agreeing to it and it was one of his pet peeves. If it wasn't Orton, it was Sasha. And if it wasn't Sasha it was Orton or someone Authority-related. It just seemed to be that wherever Seth went he was surrounded by people who only wanted him for their own selfish reasons. He headed up into the lobby and up to his hotel room. He frowned in confusion as the lift doors opened to an empty hallway. He was expecting to find Orton leaning against the door, waiting for him. His usual smug look on his face. A wave of relief came over the Shield member as he made his way towards his room and unlocked the door. The fact that no one was bothering right now meant that he was going to take whatever that meant and run with it. Of course he knew that it wasn't going to last but that didn't seem to bother him. For now he was just going to relish in the fact he was finally able to get some alone time. No matter how short.

"Hello, room service, please."

"Good afternoon sir, what can I do for you this evening?"

"I'd like a bottle of Whiskey, two tubs of Ben Jerry's and the entire fifth season of NCIS and the third season of Doctor Who please."

Now was the perfect time to nerd out. He didn't have any 'Meet and Greets', no CrossFit workouts and no Shield planning which meant that he was going to watch as many episodes of his favourite TV shows as possible.

"Anything else, sir?"

"Yeah, actually. Season 4 of Game of Thrones and Season 3 and 4 of The Walking Dead and two racks of ribs please."

"I'll have that for you right away, sir," the man told him, hanging up.

Seth quickly took a shower and emerged just in time as someone knocked the door. Wrapping a towel around his waist, Seth headed over the door and quickly pulled his damp hair into a bun. He opened the door to reveal none other than Randy Orton.

"What the devil are you doing here?" Seth asked, not happy with the intrusion.

Orton held out his hand and waited for Seth to take it.

"Now you want a truce?"


Paige slammed into the wall opposite Barrett's hotel room as Kane continued the beat down of the Bad News anchor. She could the sound of Kane throwing him across the room and a loud thud caused her to jump. She was still in shock that Kane had decided to burst in their room that she hadn't realised she was standing in the middle of the hall stark naked. Barrett let out a loud groan as he was thrown across the room, smashing the coffee table in the room to pieces. Paige jumped and moved down the hall, her back still against the wall opposite.

"Well, isn't this awkward?" a voice came from behind her.

"Oh my god!" she exclaimed, jumping out of her skin.

Her heart skipped a few beats and she felt her skin go cold as she turned to see Orton and Seth staring at eyes wide with shock. Thankfully, there was a hotel cart a few doors down and she quickly grabbed a towel to save herself more embarrassment. She wrapped the material tightly around her and brought her loose hair over one of her shoulders.

"Don't say another word," she said as Orton went to speak.

"Ooh touchy," he smirked, holding his hands up in the air, "Don't worry, as much as I'd like to stay and take in more of this…magnificent view I've got other business to attend to. I'm just here to tell Sethy boy here that the deal we sorted is done," he told her, turning back to Seth and taking Seth's hand.

Before Seth could even reply, Orton gave a quick shake of Seth's hand and walked past Paige heading into Barrett's room, closing the door behind him.

"What was that about?" she asked, pointing to Barrett's hotel room.

Seth just shook his head. To tell the truth, he had no idea himself but he wasn't going to tell her that. He didn't see the point, he wasn't sure if she was going to believe him.

The two stood in silence, Seth trying to avoid staring at Paige as she stood opposite him in one of the shortest towels he had ever seen. Of course, she just picked up the first one she could grab so it wasn't her fault, but that didn't help the situation at all.

"Do you want to come in?" he finally asked.

Nodding, Paige headed over to him and slipped into the room as Seth closed the door behind her.

"I'm not even sure I want to ask what happened," Seth said as he emerged from his bedroom a moment later with a t-shirt in his hand.

"To be honest, I don't really know. One minute I was with Wade and the next I was standing in the hall watching Kane beat the shit out of him."

Seth stood up and headed over to the small table room service had wheeled in, trying not to picture what had happened a few moments ago.

"Kane? Why was he there?"

"No clue," Paige shrugged, "I figured he must have followed us or seen us when we came into the hotel. It scared the shit out of me."

Seth turned to face her and he could see she was still shaking . He imagine the image of Kane standing over them after kicking the door down would have scared anyone. He sat down next to her, sliding a comforting arm around her shoulders.

"You can stay with me for as long as you like," The Architect offered, softly running his hand up and down her arm.

"As much I want to take you up on that. I've gotta get my stuff and get back to Sasha. She's probably wondering where I am. Plus, I've got an interview with Renee later."

Seth sighed as Paige stood up and headed towards the door, but Seth grabbed her hand.

"At least stay for something to eat?" he asked, pointing at the table, "I think I ordered too much."

The Diva hesitated before nodding and smiling.

"What is it with you men when it comes to food? You always think with your belly rather than your head."

"I suppose we've just got a growing appetite to keep settled," Seth joked.

"More like your ego."


Stephanie sat opposite her husband watching him as he continued to pace back and forth. He had been doing so for the last half an hour and it was beginning to agitate her. She hated it whenever he got into one of these moods. She was never able to tell what he was thinking. It was until his "secret plan" was finally in motion did she know what all the office pacing had helped him to come up with. She told him time and time again to tell her but he never did. Mainly because he knew she had other business to attend to and by the time he had finished pacing, he already thought of a lot of whatever plan he had come up with, so he knew that she wasn't going to be any help. But in Steph's eyes that wasn't an excuse or the point. Sighing, The Million Dollar Princess stood up and headed over to the filling cabinet just behind her. Just as she pulled open of the drawers, her personal assistant, Jane, knocked on the door.

"I'm sorry to bother you," she smiled, softly.

Stephanie glanced at her husband, who was still pacing, and gave a slight shake of her head before turning her focus back to her PA.

"No, it's fine. Don't mind him. What can I do for you?"

"You asked me to tell you when Nikki Bella had arrived."

Immediately, Hunter came to a stop and frowned at his wife. Why on earth would she want with Nikki Bella?

"Where is she?" Steph asked, pretending she hadn't noticed Hunter's confusion that flooded his face.

"Thank you, Jane. I'll be right there," Steph told her, pulling out a file in the drawer.

Hunter went to ask what Steph had planned, but he didn't get the chance as she pushed the drawer shut and let without so much as a goodbye.

"You want me to what?" Nikki exclaimed, jumping out of her chair.

"Sit down, Miss Bella," Stephanie said, rolling her eyes.

Nikki took a moment and held her boss' gaze before slowly sitting down.

"Listen, I'm not asking you to give me an answer right now. Why else do you think I had these plans written up? I know what it's going to require of you and I'd suspect that you would want some time to think about it. How about you take a few days to think about? That way you can look up what's written and then you can get back to me."

Nikki frowned and looked at the envelope lying on the table. She couldn't believe or even understand why Stephanie had asked her to do such a thing. She had heard the rumours that Stephanie was a little rash when it came to business deals, but this was something else entirely. Could she really do it? Fulfil what Stephanie was asking of her? She couldn't seem to speak instead she nodded and sat in silence.

"Great!" Stephanie smiled, holding out the envelope on the desk, "The details of what we've discussed are in all there."

"Discussed?" Nikki thought to herself, "I've just sat here for the last twenty-five minutes and listen to you talk to me!"

"I'd appreciate it if you gave it a very through read over, you might find something in there to your liking. Please don't hesitate to call me if you have any questions or need to discuss anything in more detail."

The Total Diva felt her skin grow cold as she reached for the envelope and caught Stephanie's gaze. There was something about her eyes and her smile that put the former Diva's champion on edge. And whatever it was, she didn't like it. She went to pull the envelope from Stephan's grip, but she tightened her hold pulling it towards her slightly.

"There's one thing I have to ask you to take into consideration, Miss Bella," Stephanie began, her voice cold and too calm for Nikki's liking, "A lot of things are going to happening very soon and you have to ask yourself this: Which side are you prepared to stand on to do what's best for business?"
