takerschick: Thank you very much! :)

A Wrestling God: Do you hate absolutely everyone? They haven't even done anything to you! Ha ha ha.
I think the reason you probably like Iris is because she's trying to patch things up. Yes she made a mistake but keeping up a pretence would have been even more worse. And because she's not acting childish like Ariana. She's trying to get through this by acting like an adult. I think I know why you'd pick the Bella's ;)

AmbroseLover726: Glad you like it. We shall see in good time my friend. This is a very short story so who knows where we'll end up. Thanks! :)


CHAPTER 8:

"Wait, you guys want me to pretend to be a slut too?" asks Ariana for clarification, not sure if she had heard Layla right the first time. She realizes she did though when both the girls nod their heads. "I don't think so," says Ariana, getting up. "It might be fun for you but it isn't for me". She could never be something she strictly opposes. Something she could never take in a joking manner.

"Well, you don't have to act like one," says Summer. "Its just…for the first time since we've been here someone has stuck up for us and we'd be idiots not to make friends with that person," she gives Ariana the real reason they were trying to recruit her.

"You've fallen out with Iris and everyone else is giving you grief for it, it kind of makes us have flashbacks because that's where we were once," says Layla as Ariana looks on in surprise. She never thought these guys had a caring bone in their body but here they were to prove her wrong. When she first came here, everyone said to keep away from Summer and Layla and that's what she did. But now she was feeling exactly how they were made to feel and she hated it. She can't have imagined how they must have felt. She actually feels terrible for listening to the others instead of giving them a chance like she would have anyone else.

"You know, you guys are actually alright," comments Ariana with a small smile. She wasn't going to do what they do but she could at least get to know them a little better.

"Thanks!" says Summer. "We'll show you we're not that bad once you hang out with us. We could go to a club tonight with everyone else and show you how to really have a good time," she suggests and Ariana starts to contemplate it. She can't imagine the things they'd try and get her to do.

"Yeah, we'll show you how to really have fun than the boringness you've had to deal with for a years now!" says Layla, not being able to stay still in one spot as they wait for Ariana's answer. Ariana would have declined because she's not a big fan going clubbing but seeing as her other option was to go back to her hotel room and just stare at the TV for hours she decided against it. She needed this. To let her hair loose with some good company.

"Yeah ok, sure," says Ariana, nodding her head. "That sounds great," she says causing Layla and Summer to hug each other and squeal in excitement. They both start talking animatedly till Ariana says, "Guys, don't you have a match?"

"Oh shit yeah!" says Layla and thanks Ariana for reminding them since they got carried away. Ariana then sits back down, wondering what she'll do the next couple of hours, they still weren't letting her in that ring. "Oh, what's up?" Layla then asks Ariana and both she and Summer stand in front of Ariana.

"It's Stephanie," says Ariana with a sigh. "Because of the bump yesterday she told me to not wrestle for a couple of days at least. But I'm still not allowed to get back in the ring and I have absolutely nothing else to do," she explains her predicament to them both. "They won't let me train or practice, I feel oppressed!" she tells them both, the last part makes both of them laugh. Ariana understands Stephanie's decision and it was probably the right one but that didn't mean she had to like it.

"You don't want to get hurt now do you?" asks Summer, completely seeing where Stephanie's coming from. "But, if you want something to do then I totally have an idea," she says, a smirk gracing her lips. "Give me 5 minutes!" she says, running out of the locker room. Ariana looks at Layla who just shrugs her shoulders.

"Come on, you can walk me to the gorilla," says Layla, dragging Ariana out of the locker room by the arm. They walk side by side and Ariana actually finds herself having fun talking to Layla. They had a lot of things in common. Neither of them could resist chocolate, they both couldn't stand Alicia Fox, and they both had a soft spot for Bradley Cooper. It was amazing how Ariana had more in common with Layla then Iris, yet she never cared to find out before. The special thing about Ariana and Iris's friendship was that they were complete opposites yet they worked. Ariana just doesn't know what to think anymore, especially about friends.

"Ok guys, am I excellent or what?" asks Summer, walking up to Ariana and Layla who were waiting for her. "You wanted something to do, and I have just the thing!" she squeals in excitement as Ariana gives her a look, she just hopes Summer hadn't gone and done something stupid.


"It's ok, we got this," says Natalya, trying to reassure Iris who was nervous. She'd never gotten this many boos before and they were all getting to her head. But she shouldn't have expected anything less since the WWE universe loved the SHIELD and she assisted Seth in apparently destroying it. "And look, Seth's right there," she says, pointing to Seth who was sitting next to JBL. Iris nods her head and starts to feel better but then Summer and Layla's music hits. Each of them come out and then stay at the top of the ramp.

"What are they doing?" Iris asks Natalya who just shrugs her shoulders. However, all questions are answered when Ariana makes an appearance. Iris steps back in shock, this wasn't in the script! She looks at Seth in panic who gestures for her to remain in one place. He'd been subjected to surprises like this before and it was all about remaining in character. Ariana smiles at the reaction she gets, all the cheering she gets from the WWE universe was really making her feeling better despite everything else going on in her life.

"Ariana seemingly accompanying Summer and Layla to the ring," comments Cole in confusion.

"I don't get this, I don't get this at all," says JBL, shaking his head as the girls make their way down to the ramp. "I thought Ariana hated their guts!" he exclaims as all three of them get in the ring. Ariana smirks and moves forward towards Iris who backs up a bit. Knowing she's accomplished what she did best, placing fear into her opponents, she exits the ring. She then goes and sits on the chair next to Lawler, getting comfortable.

"Didn't see that one coming did ya?" asks Summer with a big smirk on her face.

"Summer and Iris start off the match," comments Cole. "And we have sitting with us, Seth Rollins and Ariana, both of whom were involved in a struggle this past week on Monday night Raw," he comment as Ariana smirks at the fact that Iris is definitely distracted by her.

"Yes and Ariana got injured quite a bit," says Lawler, looking at Seth.

"Oh no, don't pin this on me," says Seth, shaking his head and refusing to be a scapegoat for Ariana's actions. Well that's what his character would think. "No one told her to come out there and did she really think that everything would be hunky dory if she tried to stop me?" he questions cockily as Ariana rolls her eyes and keeps them on Summer who had the upper hand over Iris.

"Why don't we let her answer that," suggests Lawler and takes off his headset, handing it over.

"Thanks Jerry," says Ariana with a smile. When Summer told her that Stephanie thought their idea about Ariana accompanying them to the ring would be great, she couldn't believe it. Moreover, she couldn't believe Summer had actually come up with it. Apparently, Stephanie thought it would be good to use the animosity between Ariana and Iris in this match and she wanted to see the reaction from the WWE universe towards Ariana after last night. "Listen, I'm not blaming anybody for anything. I came out knowing there was a risk I could get hurt because I believe in Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose. They're good friends of mine and I wasn't about to leave them to suffer whilst their so called brother stabbed them in the back," she comments.

"You can't come out here and talk like that when you did the exact same thing with Iris," says Seth, defending his girlfriend on screen. Though he didn't expect her out here he was going to stay within character and be the heel.

"Maybe I knew she'd aid you in doing something as low as this," Ariana retorts. "Besides, she's the one that first stabbed Dean in the back, you then continued to move that knife around as much as you could," she says, looking at Seth and pointing at him as the commentators realize that they shouldn't get involved.

"I am sick and tired of people giving me grief over that," says Seth, rolling his eyes. "If I stayed with Dean and Roman, my career would have gone nowhere. I would have been stuck in a faction that's been banded as outlaws and I'd never get the opportunity to win any titles. Heck, everyone saw how me and Roman lost the titles all because Hunter wanted to get revenge. Even Dean lost his title, so I did the one thing in this situation a person could do. If you can't beat them, join them," he says through clenched teeth and Ariana gets up, throwing her headset back at Lawler. Seth gets up too and takes his own headset off.

"Oh you think you're the big man," says Ariana, her hands flying around in the air.

"I don't think it, I know it!" shouts Seth and they starts bickering. "And don't you dare say anything about my girlfriend because she is twice the wrestler you are," she says, getting right into her face. Knowing this is the only time and place she can get away with it, Ariana takes out her hand and slaps Seth right across the cheek, a resounding sound being heard quite far back.

"Seth!" shouts Iris, coming over to the ropes and not looking happy with that Ariana did. This caused a distraction because Layla got Iris from behind and got the pin for her team. The bell rings signaling that the match was over and Ariana quickly moved to the side, joining Summer and Layla. Summer told Ariana that she could only accompany them, not look too friendly. Her agenda had to look like she was out there to ruin Iris. Ariana laughs as she walks backwards on the ramp and sees Iris go over to Seth in worry. But he pushes her away and kicks the announcement table in anger, letting out a huge scream. This just makes Ariana laugh more.


Once they got to the curtains they see Dean standing there waiting for them, or that's what it seems like. He shakes his head at Ariana, a smirk on his lips which she can tell he was trying to hide. But who wasn't amused out there by her slapping Seth? It was great!

"You just can't help yourself can you?" asks Dean, directing his question at Ariana as Summer and Layla walk off to the side to give both of them a chance to talk.

"Um, nope!" says Ariana with a chuckle. Before they get a chance to say anything further though, Seth and Iris make an appearance, looking anything but happy.

"What the fuck Ariana?" shouts Seth in anger. "You can't just waltz out there when you feel like it and do anything you want!" he shouts, obviously talking about the slap.

"According to Stephanie, I so can," comments Ariana and at that moment Stephanie comes there with a huge smile on her face.

"Guys, that was excellent!" exclaims Stephanie. "The crowd ate it all up and loved it! I was just talking to creative and they said the reaction the crowd gave to you Ariana, was unbelievable!" she gushes and Ariana can't hide the smile that makes its way onto her lips.

"Summer should get the credit, it was her idea," says Ariana, not forgetting because of whom she was out there. Summer nods her head at Ariana and smiles at her. For once there was a Diva who didn't see Summer and Layla as two bitches but as actual people. And she was giving Summer the credit for what just happened which she knows no one else would ever do.

"How could I forget? Maybe we need to hear your ideas in the future," says Stephanie, making Summer's face light up as Iris looks on at the whole scene with disdain written all over her face. "Anyway, creative have just come up with a whole new angle for everything that's happened!" she then says, looking at Ariana. "You tried to save Dean and Roman, you attacked Seth, and now they want you to stick by Roman and Dean as they address Seth on Monday next week," she explains to Ariana.

"You serious?" asks Ariana, the excitement building up inside of her. Stephanie nods her head as Ariana shakes hers in disbelief. Working with the Shield would be a dream come true. Also, she found the guys always got the better storylines and if she gets to participate in it then it's even better! "So I get to be a part of the SHIELD?" she then asks.

"Not technically cause it's mine and Roman's last appearance as the SHIELD," comments Dean, raining all over Ariana's parade. She puts her hands on her hips and glares at him. "Alright you're part of the SHIELD," he says, not being able to hold back the chuckle that escapes his lips as Ariana starts squealing. Something he never thought she would do.

"And the crowd are behind you so it should be great," says Stephanie. "I realize all this has been last minute and neither you Iris nor Seth had been notified but the reaction we saw was real and that's what I wanted to see," she explains to them and they both nod their heads, not looking too happy. "Ariana, I think that slap was a step too far though," Stephanie then lets her know.

"Sorry, I got carried away," says Ariana but she wasn't too worried. People have slapped others before so it shouldn't be too much of a big issue.

"Try and control it next time please," says Stephanie firmly and Ariana nods her head. She doesn't think it would have looked at all real to the audience if she didn't give him that slap. It's not like she hit him too hard anyway. "I have to go but good job guys," she says to them all and then leaves.

"Ha, now you're stuck with me sucker!" says Ariana, bringing a little lightheartedness into it all. She hated how everyone was standing all serious like, even Dean. And she wasn't about to stay all moody and miserable because Iris and Seth fucked up, it was about time she took a control of her own life. And moved on from the crappiness they distributed to everyone.

"As long as you don't strip for me like last night, I'm good," comments Dean. Although, he can't say it was something completely horrid.

"I thought were weren't going to mention that," says Ariana in a low voice so only Dean would hear. She then realizes she's let it slip that she's remembered everything.

"I thought you didn't remember a thing?" asks Dean and Ariana rolls her eyes, knowing he's messing with her. "Besides, we never agreed to anything," he then points out to her.

"It was a silent agreement when I pretended to be ignorant," says Ariana through clenched teeth which Dean just finds amusing. She never should have stripped if she didn't want anyone to know about it.

"Well then don't take your clothes off in the future," comments Dean, loudly enough for everyone to hear which makes Ariana go red. "See you later," he comments, throwing a wink in her direction before leaving from there. He did that partly to stick it to Iris and partly because he wanted to see if he could make Ariana go red.

"Fucker!" exclaims Ariana and then leaves from there herself. She could see the horrified look on Iris's face but just smirks to herself, she shouldn't dish out what she can't handle, Ariana thinks to herself. As she's walking she realized she forgot to thank Dean for putting up with her last night. Not knowing when he'll make an appearance again she takes out her phone and scrolls down to Dean's name. They'd never conversed through calls or text messages but she did take out Dean's number from Iris's cell one time, just in case she ever needed Iris and the only way to get to her would be through Dean.

"Who are you messaging?" asks Summer, her hands clamping down on Ariana's shoulders who lets out a scream.

"Bitch!" shouts Ariana which only makes Summer laugh. "Just a friend, why?" she then questions. Instead of answering, Summer just takes Ariana's phone off of her and starts playing around with it. "What the hell are you doing?" she then asks her.

"Punching in mine and Layla's digits, duh!" says Summer as if Ariana was being stupid by even asking her the question in the first place. "That way we can keep in contact till we see you tonight," she says, handing Ariana's cell back to her.

"And what if I come out tonight and decide I didn't have fun?" questions Ariana.

"Honey, that would mean you're dead," says Summer with an ear piercing laugh before she takes off and tells Ariana she'll see her later. Ariana shakes her head and messages Dean. Never really got a chance to say thanks for last night, you and Roman both put up with me whilst I was still loopy. So thanks for that, thank Roman for me too :) She was skeptical of sending it at first but then did so in the end.


Reviews would be lovely! :)
