Behind the Ropes season 2 Episode 7 Don't do anything stupid

Tampa, FL

Melinda couldn't believe what was happening, not only was she training for her match, but she was training Layla, and also the last person she expect…Candice.

"Wow…I can see why Jonathan love this…it gives you a rush." She smiles as her face was bright red. "Your getting toner."

Melinda drinks her bottle water. "Yeah, tell me about it. These secret trainings with you are getting the best of me."

"Well I cant go to anyone else Mel, I mean… John." She said.

The red head looks over to the female next to her. "Anyone else know about this?"

"My sister, thank goodness she's not traveling. She been with the girls."

"So Jonathan hasn't been curious?" Melinda asks.

"Yeah, but she says he hasn't really been interested."

Melinda sighs. "Well, that's good, okay well…I got to get going so take care."

"Alright, you too."

As the friends parted ways, Melinda was not sure if she was doing the right thing to help Candice, but at the end of the day it was none of her business.


Los Angeles, Ca

Adriana the body, sat pool side watching her kids swim and going over the lines for up and coming shows. She'd be traveling more and will be doing more shows. The money wasn't needed to be the remembrance was, besides she needs the exposure for her book.

"I was thinking a green or white dress of for the ceremony. What do you think?" She says looking over at her husband.

"Anything you have on will be awesome babe you know that."

"But I want your opinion….so."

He points to the peach colored strapless dress with a long split. "That with those tan Jimmy Choos."

This man amazes me all the time. "Wow….are you sure your not gay Mark?" She teases the tattooed billionaire.

"Naw…just learned from your gay brother." He turns to her. "You see Chase yet?"

"Yes."

"You and Melinda talked yet?"

She arches a brow. "No well yes, but not a conversation."

"You know its needed right?"

Adriana sighs. "Not really work is work-"

"Yeah and the past keeps taunting certain people…I know your feelings are far away for Chase, but make sure she under stands that too."

She turns to her husband. "Okay…I will."


Jacksonville, FL

Slipping off his Ferragamo shoes, Jonathan sighs laying down on the bed on his penthouse. Wrestling is going well, and so is business outside of wrestling. The only thing that he wants to mange to fix his is marriage and now is friend ship with Daniel. The handsome vet began to undress when he decide to give Candice a call.

"Hello?"

"Courtney?"

"No it's me you called my phone John-"

He sighs. "Well you guys are starting to sound alike. Where have you been?"

"Busy, been working on a project."

Jonathan removes his cuff links. "Yeah, what is it?"

"Can't tell you it's a secret."

"Way to go like a 5 year old babe…how are the girls?" He rolls his eyes.

"Doing their home work, I will make sure to call you before they go to bed."

"Good deal, I'm free tomorrow want to join me for breakfast after the girls are dropped off from school?"

It took Candice a moment to answer. "Your girlfriend would mind-"

"No she wont because I am not dating anyone." Jonathan states.

"…sure."

"Wear something that shows your legs." He smirks.

"Jeans it is." She says hanging up with a smile on her face.


Miami, Fl

Randy sat up on the bed yawning, wresltemania was getting to him, but in a good way. He found out Monday that he would get the IC belt and Layla would be going for the women's championship belt. It was going to be amazing. But the Mickie thing was far from over, it just cooled off.

He looks over at his gorgeous girlfriend, he began to plant kiss on her neck. "Babe."

She moans. "Randy?"

"Wake up, I'm hungry."

Layla laughs lightly. "There is left over's warm them up-"

"Hell no, wrap your legs around my neck, im starving."

"Ahhh...Randy!"


New York City, NY

Paul waited for Stephanie McMahon to join him for lunch at a 5 star restaurant. She wasn't cooed to dinner so Paul was going to take whatever he could to spend time with Stephanie and also go over what ever he could to help her. He spotted the heiress walked towards her in a white off the shoulder knee length dress with blue Christina Loubotuions and blue Herems' birkin bag. Stephanie hair pulled back into a ponytail completed her look. She greets him with a smile.

"Hello Paul."

"Hello Ms. McMahon how are you this afternoon?"

Stephanie smiles. "Great and you?"

Can't complain. So, I order you water with lemon."

Stephanie arches a brow. "Why lemon?"

"Most women drink water with lemon-"

"That maybe most women you've dated or came across…but thank you Paul." She smiles.

Paul returns the smile. " How you been?"

"Good, even better if you tell me the investigations been drop."

Paul sighs. "No it hasn't. Were are doing everything in our power. If people lives wasn't at steak then the charges would be dropped a long time ago. Someone snitched on you."

Stephanie smirks. "Who?"

"Not sure, but you lied to me too because information came through that I didn't even know about."

Stephanie looks at him. "I told you everything, yeah I gave some guys a break keeping certain talent away from 90days would be….I cannot even explain-"

"Push other talent."

"Champions aren't made overnight in this business Paul-"

He chuckles. "Couldn't fooled me, Cena, Hogan, at least Johnny B can wrestle. But do you also think that pumping them with roids are a good idea?"

"Who said I was doing it?" Stephanie arches a brow. "What other information-"

"Under age talent. Your signature is on the paper work."

Stephanie thought. "That son of a bitch!"

"Keep your voice down." Paul states. "We'll figure this out."

Stephanie felt like there was hardly anyone to trust, her brother, now finding out that Lauranisits got his shit in on her too…she was scared. But you'll never see that expression on her face, instead Stephanie expression is pissed off.


Jacksonville, FL

After breakfast with Jonathan, Candice and him went to see a movie and also had lunch. She came home to finally check her voicemails, missed calls and etc. But Shane McMachon's voicemail was one she had to think twice about. The busty brunette return the number.

"I've been expecting your call gorgeous."

"Shane, hello." He was even charming through the phone. "How may I help you?"

"I want you to be apart of the biggest show in Wrestling entertainment."

Candice sighs. "Why?"

"Because, you will fit in perfect."

Candice had to wonder did Melinda tell Shane about her training? "Jonathan wouldn't like that-"

"Oh come on he doesn't have to know but he will find out. Let me fly you out to New York and lets talk about it….it will be our little secret."


Los Angeles, CA

Adriana stood in the mirror practicing her lines and going over material over all. Getting back into character was something else. The Body was back and she needed to prove that especially to the younger people who don't know who she is. More hits than ever on you tube and Google proved to the world of wrestling that she was relevant. But the conversation she had with her husband was something she thought about. A conversation with Melinda would maybe close some doors that should have been locked and shut.

May 1995

Adriana had just won the women's title from Alundra Bylaze. The beautiful and talent blonde search for her former lover Daniel before his match against the smoking guns.

"Hey, congrats." He says.

"Thank you." She smiles. "Can we talk?"

"About?" He ask with his smile removing from his face.

"I love you Daniel."

He sighs. "We been over this-"

"Your selfish, you want me to give up my passion and my career for you. Daniel I am not ready to do that. But there is still no reason for us to make this work we've been together forever."

"Exactly, so there's nothing we need to talk about-"

"Were you cheating on me with Melinda?" She questions.

"Were friends, and no." Daniel spats.

"I hope you know what your getting into because everyone has gotten into her-"

Daniel smirks. "Well…if you thought about more than this title…then this conversation wouldn't been happening now would it? I got match."

As he walks off, Adriana felt her heart drop and break crashing in her stomach. The man she loved, and still wanted to marry was gone. She stares at the title to figure was it worth it.

End flash back

The blonde looks around her office and the pictures and awards. She then heads to the bedroom to see her sleeping giant husband and lay down next to him naked. She smiles and sighs. "Yes…it was worth it."


New York City, NYC

"Hey Layla."

"Hey Kofi, how is everything?" She smiles.

"Great, you?"

"Great, money in the bank ladder match aren't you excited for wresltemania?"

He could less about that, he liked Layla a lot and knew it was dangerous to even be seen talking to her. "Yeah, listen heard that you were going to get the strap?"

"Nothing has been said, but I am in the match. that's all I know…do you know something?"

Kofi laughs. "No." He sees Orton stalking down the hall, that was his que. "Nice talking to you…see you later."

"Later." Before she knew it, Layla was whipped around to the man she adored the most.

"Who got you smiling from ear to ear?" His deep voice rumbles.

"You."

"Lair, what did he want?" Randy says staring into her eyes.

"Nothing, just saying hello. He asked me if I was getting the belt I said I didn't know."

Randy smirks. "You are getting it." Then the buzzing of his cell went off. "I gotta take this see you after the show?"

"Yes, love you."

He kisses her. "Love you more."

"What…you can't call me like that…bro I handle that already….no…listen tell him to go fuck himself."


During the main event match, which was Jonathan and Daniel vs., Beer Money a video appears upon the screen with the contender Ken Kennedy having a conversation.

Kennedy: "This is un believe able, I am so happy that you took my offer to mange me from now on. So Mrs-wait what do you want me to call you gorgeous.?

(the camera slowly pans)

Candice: You can call me Candice Michelle

Jonathan eyes widen and he couldn't believe what was going on, none of this was in the script and he was completely unaware. Robert Rode pulls a school boy earning the win for Beer Money, and Jonathan could have cared less, he marches backstage and looks for Shane.

"Where is he?! What the hell was that?"

Shane appears with Kelly by his side. "What's all the yelling for?"

Jonathan steps to him in his face. "What the fuck was that? What does my wife- where is my wife?!"

"She's safe."

"Get her out here now!" Jonathan yells out of breath.

Shane smirks, he known's were still on air with a few minutes left. "Listen, go wait in the office, she'll be there."

Moments later…

Jonathan was more than pissed off. How could she agree to something behind his back.

"Hey bro, I didn't know it was you wife."

Jonathan looks at Kennedy under eyed. "Where is she?"

"Right here." She said stepping from behind Kennedy. "You mind leaving us Ken?"

"Not a problem-" He said with no hesitation.

"Explain to me what the fuck is going on Candice Michelle."

Hey eyes widen. "Are you upset?"

"That…I have no idea what Shane is doing, I can wing a lot of things when they're not planned on tv but this shit you pilled what is up?"

"Shane said he was going to speak with you-"

Jonathan sighs. "WELL HE DIDN'T!"

"Don't get upset with me-"

"What do you mean don't get up set with you, Candice your not even the type that likes to be on television let alone your acting and siding with Kennedy my enemy in the WWE world? Fucking serious? This to get back at me?" Jonathan says.

Candice felt her blood boil. "This has nothing to do about you Shane said-"

"Fuck Shane, and this is does has something to do with me Candice, you agreed to do a storyline-Ken is the guy I am facing at Wrestlemania for the belt!"

Candice didn't know how much she got herself deep in. "Maybe this…this was a mistake."

"You think?" Jonathan stares at her. "The last thing I need is for our private life to be displayed as a story-line."

Candice chuckles. "Everyone knows…your not perfect-"

"I am glad you finally realize that." He says heading to the door. "Are you on smack down too or just Raw?" He ask not turning around to face her.

"Don't know yet…but I am not to be at the taping tomorrow." She says starring at his gorgeous face.

"So I guess I see you Wednesday for when I pick up the girls?"

She sighs. "Yes…Wednesday."

Closing the door behind him, Candice felt like she was being used, but all at the same time she still wanted to be apart of this storyline. Never has she seen Jonathan so upset. With a smirk on her face she sits on the sofa. The door swings open to Shane McMahon.

"Did you put all the blame on me?"

"Yes."

"Great, I'll take care of Jonathan…you my dear let us go over a little contract."


Miami, FL

Outside of wrestling Wade was Randy best friend. Seriously, he had started his life over and there was no reason to hang out with the old crowd from when he grew up with.

"What's going on mate?"

"You with this bread." Randy laughs. "You ready to come back?"

"Yeah, I am. Been working hard on the body and mind." Wade hands Randy a beer as they walk towards his patio. "Talk to me."

Randy laughs. "My contract is up."

Wade turns to his friend. "Yeah?"

"Yeah?"

Wade stares at him. "So fucker what are you going to do re sign right?"

Randy was silent for a moment be he answered. "Mickie-"

"Fuck Mickie its about Layla now stop acting like a spazz." Wade frowns.

No one understood, his feelings for Mickie were no longer there. Wade and Alicia didn't understand that…the shit is too deep to get into conversation with. "Nevermind…"

Wade gives his friend a glare. "Randy…don't do anything stupid."
