5 reviews and I'll update within a week :)
10: Te Amo
**On Screen**
Wade's eyes spoke a million words. He didn't even have to say a word...that look in his eyes said it all.
I took a brief second to weigh out my options...
Option 1. Snatch the mic out of Wade's cold hands and tell him the truth. That Justin gave me my dog tags back..but who would believe me if I did? Justin would obviously deny it and I would get the beating of a lifetime.
Option 2: Stay silent and brace myself for what was about to come.
"Well Scarlett" Wade's voice broke through my thoughts
"shit" I muttered under my breath. I gulped and looked up into those cold lifeless eyes of Wade Barrett.
"We're all waiting" Wade crossed his hands over his chest and shoved the microphone into my hands.
I swallowed hard...option one it was...
"Look Wade..." I started off "I know you're not gonna believe me..but Justin gave me them back..." I looked down as soon as I said that.
I opened my mouth to speak again when I was cut off by Wade
"Is that true Gabriel?"
Justin put the mic to his lips "Actually Wade...I did..."
I nearly choked. My head shot up...Was this really happening?
Wade's face had turned crimson red. He was absolutely livid "Justin I swear to god-"
All of a sudden Justin burst out laughing. All of us glared at him He caught his breath and began to speak again "Do I look like an idiot to you Wade? Why in the living hell would I give that to her after you gave me SPECIFIC orders not to?"
Against my better judgment I spoke again, it was my turn to be livid "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" I shouted "YOU GAVE THESE TO ME! EARLIER TONIGHT IN THE LOCKER ROOM!" Wade turned to me with that same look he was giving Justin just a minute ago
"Listen Wade..I'm not ly-"
"YOU LYING BITCH!" Wade snarled using his arm push me down to the ground. I backed up into the turnbuckle and put my hands up in front of my face
"YOU THINK YOU CAN TRICK ME?" He bent down and screamed in my face "AND THEN YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO LIE ON ONE OF THE NEXUS?"
"I-I'm not lying Wade...I swear to god..I'm not" I pleaded...though if fell on deaf ears...he wasn't listening in fact I think he was so damn angry he couldn't hear anything with the smoke coming out of his ears.
"Oh, you thought you had it bad before?" Wade's voice had turned a scary calm "You have no idea what you just did to yourself..STAND UP!" He yelled
I slowly stood up and smoothed down my skirt. I backed up further into the turnbuckle.
Wade started to walk towards me, I could almost feel my heart in my throat.
"You lying..pathetic...fat.. piece of shit" I was sure the crew didn't have enough time to bleep that one out. "I'm about to rip that look of your bloody face!"
Wade's arms reached forward and grabbed a fistful of my curls "Men...show no mercy-"
Wade was cut off when I heard the most beautiful sound.
The crowd jumped to their feet and screamed the hearts out for the leader of the Cenation...I felt a small smile tug at my lips but I held it back as Wade still had a tight grip on the roots of my hair.
John walked slowly onto the ramp..He had obviously been back there waiting for a while and planning his "attack". Clearly running into the lion's den was not a wise idea.
"Guys.." John's voice was barely over a whisper "Please..let her go..."
Wade laughed and pulled tighter on my hair, I let out a small shout and shut my eyes. He used his free hand to take the mic. "Didn't you read the contract before you signed it? You can't be out here-"
"The contract says I couldn't use any physical force on any member of the Nexus" John's voice got louder "I'm not gonna touch any on of you..I'm just here to talk"
"Talk?" Wade laughed "Wasn't it you that always said talk is cheap?"
I opened my eyes and immediately got locked into John's baby blues. I hated that he had to see me like this.
"Wade I'm begging you...this is between us man...Scarlett has nothing to do with this-"
"SHE HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT!" Wade shouted. I could have sworn I heard a small break of emotion in Wade's voice but he hadn't finished speaking "You know what John? I'm actually very happy you're out here...you can watch the demise of your love front and centre!"
My eyes started to water...partly from the grip Wade had on my hair..another part was from the fear that was building up inside of me.
Wade gave a look to the rest of the Nexus and they all nodded and began walking towards me. I felt Wade's hand began to slide up my shirt..this wasn't the beating I was expecting.
"STOP IT!" John's shout broke through all the commotion "What the hell are you doing?" He took a few step forward then realized his predicament. "fuck!" I could see him mouth it under his breath
Wade's eyes suddenly changed...the anger was gone..a new look had taken over..a look I couldn't explain. He released me from my grip and took a few steps back.
"Men get out of the ring" Wade spoke, without anger.
All the guys looked at each other with unease. David decided to speak up for the group "A-are you serious?"
"You heard me...get out" Wade said again, same calmness.
I stood there..not knowing if I were to follow them or not.
Once they were all out of the ring, Wade spoke again "Come into the ring Cena"
John's head shot up "What is this? Some kinda set up?"
Wade chuckled "No set up..get into the ring..give your lady a hug"
I bit down on my lip, I could tell that this wasn't Wade's charitable act of the day..there was some evil behind this.
John looked around for a little bit. And then started walking the ring slowly.
Wade eyed down John as he walked into the eyes practically spewing of hate.
John didn't take his glare away from Wade as he slid into the ring. I looked at him and swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat..god I had missed seeing him.
"Go ahead John..." Wade hissed "hug her..We aren't going anywhere"
John and I looked at each other for what felt like an eternity..both of us scared to make the first move.
After what felt like a million years, I couldn't hold it in anymore...I practically ran towards him and wrapped my arms around his neck.
John immediately wrapped his arms around my face and buried his face in my hair.
"I'm sorry...so so..sorry" He whispered
"don't.." I hushed him "just hold me Johnny...I'm scared"
He did as he was told and held onto me, planting a million kisses on my forehead. I pulled away and looked at Wade, he was glaring at John like an ex boyfriend that was watching his girl with another man. I didn't understand it. He hated me. Why the jealous look?
I looked at John and couldn't help my eyes. I closed my eyes and felt my lips touch his. John's grip tightened around my waste.
"OKAY!" I heard Wade's voice growl, for some reason this kiss had really pissed Wade off even more. I pulled away from John and sighed.
John kept his grip around my waste, he didn't wanna let go.
"Now for the reason I wanted you in the ring Cena..." Wade said
I felt my heart speed up, this could end up extremely disastrous.
"Scarlett. Give John his dog tags back" Wade's voice was calm, and yet I could sense the smallest amount of jealousy in his voice as he watched John with his arms around me.
I blinked a few times "Umm okay" I slid the sliver chain off my wrist and put them into the palm of John's hands.
"I don't want them." John spoke "I gave them to her...their her's now."
"Those dog tags are a symbol of you and Scarlett's relationship." Wade said flatly "A relationship that no longer exists"
"What?" John and I asked at the same time
"This stupid relationship is ending now." Wade said "John break it off with her now, you have five minutes"
It was as if Wade was asking a 5 year old to throw away her favourite toy, and she had five minutes left to play with it.
"Your nuts do you know that?" John had a small laugh in his voice "you can't make us break anything off"
"DO IT JOHN OR SO HELP ME GOD I'LL MAKE HER SO DISFIGURED YOU WON'T REALIZE IT'S YOUR PRECIOUS SCARLETT!" I could see the veins protruding through Wade's neck.
I was shaking. I looked at John and slowly slipped the microphone from his grasp and spoke "Just do it"
John's eyes bulged "Scarlett! What no? Your gonna throw away nearly 6 years of love because this egotistical bastard tells you to?" He grabbed both of my hands "I love you Scarlett Marie Michaels! And I know you love me too..."
"I do John!" I shouted, feeling the tears burn at my eyes "But you don't need to be put through this anymore, this is my fight now not yours" I stroked his cheek "the contract says you can move on and let your career continue to flourish"
"No Scar" John's eyes were starting to well up "My career is important to me yeah, but Scarlett I can't..I can't be without you"
"You can move on Johnny..." I said biting down on my lip to prevent myself from crying "I love you more than anything else in my life...just do this..for now.." I said the last part in a whisper that only John can hear.
John opened his mouth to protest again but I cut him off "Baby please-"
"Times up lovebirds..." Wade said with a sadistic smile on his face.
I couldn't bring myself to get out of John's grasp. Until I heard the stomping of feet on the ramp, and saw the commotion heading our way...
Eve POV
"This is wrong Eve..." the deep voice spoke "he's my best friend...and your boyfriend.."
"shh" I hushed him "I know...but he's being a jerk! He's listening that total ass A Ry and I just-" I paused and shut my eyes "I just need a break..."
"Eve what if he finds out?" He asked
"He won't! This is just for now...I'll break it off with him I swear..." I pleaded, I couldn't take the loneliness. I needed to feel something other than hurt.
"What the hell is going on out there?-" The deep voice questioned
"What are you-?" I turned around and looked at the same monitor he was. I felt the blood drain out of my face "holy shit."
"That looks like the entire raw locker room.." He said, we watched as the flood of men head into the ring attacking the Nexus.
"almost the entire raw locker room" I smiled at him and felt his grip tighten around my waste
"this is so wrong Eve-"
"I'll deal with everything I promise.." I pulled him closer to me "just please kiss me..."
**on screen**
Within a second, a flood of raw superstars had erupted into the ring.
I felt John grab my hand and pull me out of the ring, trying to take me away from the commotion that had consumed the ring.
Before John could get me two steps away, I felt another hand break through the chaos and grab my skirt.
"WADE!" I shouted and pulled away
"LEAVE HER ALONE BARRETT!" John shouted and came about a second from punching Wade in the face.
"Get out of here Cena" Wade's strong accent boomed into my ear "You two aren't a couple anymore!"
"Doesn't matter!" I cut in and tugged away from him again.
"DAVID!" Wade shouted through the mess of superstars "GET RID OF CENA!"
Within a split second David broke through the wall of battling superstars and punched John in the side of the face.
"JOHN!" I cried out and felt Wade knock me down to the floor, I could feel my fingers slip out from John's grip.
Wade grabbed me by the shoulders and dragged me away from the chaos. I was expecting the opposite, for Wade to throw me into the mess and leave me their to be destroyed.
"What are you doing?" I screamed at him and glared at him as he kneeled down to face me.
He stared at me for a minute, not saying anything. Just looking at me in a way I hadn't seen before.
"ANSWER ME!" I was nearly in tears, and I watched as the Nexus began to even out the score between them and the raw superstars.
Wade got the softest smile I had ever seen on him and forcefully-but gently pulled my arm out of the shoulder of my lace top
"What the fuck?" I shouted and yanked away from him.
Before I knew it he had taken my shirt totally off, I was sitting there with him pretty much on top of me in just my bra and skirt. "Stop..." I pleaded with a tear running down my cheek
He chuckled. But not evilly. The same kinda chuckle John would give me when I would kiss his neck or run my hand up and down his toned stomach. A chuckle of satisfaction.
He raised his hand and used his finger to point to the tattoo on my right collarbone
He smiled again and whispered the words from my tattoo into my ear.
"Te Amo" He whispered and pulled away. I stared at him and swallowed hard.
He held my hand and pulled me to my feet, he looked into the ring making sure John was looking directly at us.
He grabbed my shoulders and gazed directly into my eyes, his eyes didn't look as cold anymore. "Te Amo Scarlett.."
