I woke up in my hotel room in Chicago on June 16th. Today was my big day, and I had to have my best friend and brother here for the occasion. I managed to get them both tickets, sadly Lexi had to leave but Max at home, but someone had to watch Midnight. Plus he wasn't really all that into wrestling like we were, but he respected it. We were in Punk's hometown and there was a lot of speculation that he would return to the ring tonight. Although there were days that he would come as a visitor, like when we were at MSG. Now that I think about him, that was the last time we really spoke. Lexi and I got ready, I decided to room with her rather than with one of the guys from The Shield. I let my brother pick who he wanted to room with. Ange knew I was getting to closer to them, but unlike Lexi, he didn't know how close. Lexi was the only one outside of the WWE who knew about my relationship with the guys. Angelo would probably kill me and them for doing such things. I sure hope the guys could keep their mouth shut about me around my brother. Lexi and I were on our way down to the parking lot, and we ran into Chris Jericho.
"JJJEERRRIIICCCHHHOOOOO!" Lexi shouted, in Chris Jericho like fashion. He was another one of her favorites, and good friends actually. She would also go to his concerts and Revolver Golden Gods.
"Lexi!" Chris smiled and hugged her.
"Hey Angel." He turned to me and gave me a hug as well. "Good luck, on your big match tonight. I'll be watching."
"Thanks Chris." I smiled, remembering all of his advice that he has given me, when I first came to the WWE. He was always there and helped me through the mental stand point, of traveling and being on the road a lot. He was even there to talk to my brother when it came to the music industry. Chris was like a father or a big brother to us.
"No problem, need a ride?" He offered us, but I shook my head.
"Nope, I'm riding with Shield." Lexi pouted, and whimpered. I knew what she wanted. "But Lexi can go with though and keep you company."
"Okay, come on Lex. Tell me more about your band on the way." Jericho smiled, as Lexi ran off with him.
I stood in the parking lot waiting for the guys, usually it would be the other way around. Almost 30 minutes had passed. I wonder what was taking so long. I was about to text one of them, when Angelo angrily walked towards me. The guys weren't so far behind him and they looked angry as well.
"Come on, we're gonna be late." Dean even sounded mad. What did I just missed?
We got in the car and it was quiet, too quiet.
"Is someone gonna fill me on what happened?" I asked.
"Nope."
"Really Jon? Not ever?" I leaned over the drivers seat, and Seth pulled me back.
"Later." He whispered in my ear. I looked over at Roman and Angelo. Angelo wouldn't even look at me.
We got to the arena, and I sighed. This was bringing down my mood completely. I didn't want to deal with fans, I just wanted know why these guys all looked liked they had a stick shoved up their ass. As soon as we walked in, papers were handed to us, apparently something was added in lasted minute. We all read over, and I looked up at Seth with my eyes wide open.
"What is it?" Angelo asked and tried to grab the paper from me.
"Nothing Ange."
"Oh just tell him you have to kiss Seth, it's not like he's gonna tell anyone. Besides it's not the first time." I looked at Dean, like I was about to kill him.
"You told him?" I sighed, Oh well that explains why Angelo's mad.
"No, we ran into AJ." Dean explained, okay that explains why the others are mad.
"Just go run along and be a whore now?" Angelo threw his hands up and wandered down the hall. I was in complete shock that my brother would call me that.
"What did she say?" I turned to the other guys, with bloodshot eyes. I was furious at her now.
"First she started flirting with your brother, and rubbing herself all up on him, he pushed away and said he had girlfriend, then she said that since you go around sleeping with three guys at once, that it would run through the family, and brought up that the three guys were us, and added that she wouldn't be surprised if there were more. We tried to calm down Angelo, and get AJ to leave, she left after trying to flirt with the rest of us, but Dean and your brother got into it and there were some punches" My jaw dropped as Roman explained to me what happened. This was not a good start to the day.
"You guys go ahead. I have to look for my brother."
"Let me take your stuff."
"Colby-"
"You can't walk around with this all day." He was right, I smiled at him and let him take my bag, then I followed my brother's direction, hopefully he didn't get far enough.
Luckily I found him at catering, and surprisingly Punk was there with him. I went up to the table, and Angelo stood up to leave, but Punk grab his arm.
"Oh no, you're going to talk about this to your sister." Angelo shook his head.
"Nope, not here at least."
"Fine, come on you two." He got up and willingly followed the two throughout the back and to Punk's bus. Punk told Kofi to step out, and took us to the back room. "You're not coming out until you've talked things out. Ange told me what happened. I'll talk to you later Angel." Great now Phil knew, and wanted to lecture me. He left my brother and there in the back to talk. Hopefully this wouldn't take long.
"I'm sorry okay." I started off, wanting to get this over and done with as quick as possible "I was gonna tell you, I just didn't you want to you think I was-"
"A whore."
"We're adults. We're about to turn 26. I know what I'm doing."
"Did you ever think that your actions could reflect badly on me?"
"No, but-"
"You live your life, and I live mine, bu the least you could do is keep your sexual life to yourself, and not go bragging around."
"I've never bragged. I never even told AJ that I've had sex with them." Knowing AJ she was just saying that to mess with him, but it was true. Well with The Shield at least.
"So you're saying she just sad that to mess with me?"
"Yes, she's crazy. Look, you know me, I'm not one to brag about things like that like."
"Yeah, but I texted Lexi, and she said you told her."
"Cause she's Lexi, my best friend who's a girl. I don't want to disgust my brother with my sex life, and I don't want you to disgust me with yours."
"It would help if you told me when you're interested in a guy."
"You know damn well that I've been interested in those guys."
"And honestly they were only guys. No more?"
"Yes. I swear. Now cheer up. Smile, cause you're ruining my day." I punched his arm.
"Ouch, I'd hate to see you on your wedding day."
We laughed, it off and now he had to apologize to the guys, mostly Dean. I sent him off to do that and texted the guys where to meet him at, while I stood behind to talk to Punk.
"Are you coming back into the ring tonight?" I asked him, walking into the front area of the bus and sitting on the couch next to him smiling like a little kid.
"That's for me to know, and for you to find out." I sighed, I knew he wouldn't tell me, and I would just have to find out from everyone else.
"According to April, I leave and you become the new whore around here. What happened?" I sighed again. He had a look of disappointment on his face. I told him my side of the story, and the more I explained the less disappointed he looked. "Okay, this makes more sense, cause from the five years you've been here, never have you once went after any of the top dogs, and if you really were like that you have gotten in my pants by now." He laughed, and I just laughed nervously.
"Yeah, no I don't sleep my way to the top." Never have I ever even thought about going so low like that.
"Yeah, cause you had Heyman and I fighting for you."
"And Chris." I added.
"Yeah, a lot of people didn't take you seriously your first year here."
"Thanks for reminding me. Phil" I rolled my eyes. Remembering how I was treated upon my first few days in the WWE. I only had Nattie and Chris, it took a while for Phil to warm up to me and take me seriously as a wrestler and not just a person. I was soon taken under Heyman's wing because he too saw something in me. Sometimes it looked liked I was really about to go places, but then something would happen, and I'd get screw out of it. Don't get me wrong, being a valet, was fun, but after a while, it seemed like they were just putting me with random superstars because they didn't know what to do with me. I got more matches, and got involved in some big storylines, only because of who I was with, I was even put on commentary for a while on NXT, and had some NXT matches.
"Hey, it's all paying off now. Don't let anyone ruin this day." He smiled and hugged me tightly.
"Thanks a lot for everything."
"You're welcome, now get out of here. Get ready." I smiled and got up, leaving his bus to do as I was told.
