A/N- Thanks for the reviews you guys, I have fun reading them and I'm glad I got more people taking interest in it. I do have to thank my sister though for giving me a shout out and I wish she would update her story already, I tried to go on her laptop and read the new un posted chapter but she changed her password. Lol anyway thank you to my new followers but don't forget to leave me a review. I got two chapters for you guys again so get ready and enjoy!
Pharya walked around the Wizard Con with Jon as the two of them were headed to do Q&A in another area. She had on a pair of faded, light blue cut up jeans with a burgundy short sleeved crop top. Some of her hair was pulled back into a pony tail as the rest stayed out,
"This place is so freaking cool. I feel like I should have dressed up in a mage costume or something." Pharya said as she was looking around excited.
"I can see it." Jon nodded. "I'm surprised you said yes to this though."
"How come?" She looked over at him.
"I didn't think these were your scene but I was in for an awakening when you named ten people from stuff you saw. And that was just outside." Jon said.
Pharya chuckled. "Yeah, I'm kind of a geek." She nodded with a shrug. "I'm not your typical tattooed girl."
Jon chuckled. "You can say that again."
"I'm not your-" She trailed off when she saw the side look that Jon was giving her. "You were joking?"
"Yeah."
"My bad." She put her hands up in defense as they shared a laugh, they went to the back of the small stage area to see Randy Orton already there. He was still out on injury but he was doing promotional things for WWE, Pharya smiled seeing him. "Hey, Orton."
Randy lowered his phone, he smiled. "Hey, what's up Pharya." He gave her a quick hug.
"Whoa now I'm thrown off, you already know each other?" Jon pointed between them.
Pharya nodded. "Yeah, when I did come to PPV's for Phil I would always talk with Randy."
"Yup." Randy nodded. "We just bonded on wrestling and you know tattoos."
"Mostly tattoos." Pharya giggled. "Speaking of tats I see you got a new one." She motioned to his arm.
"Sure do, check it out." Randy showed her his arm. "Got it done weeks ago."
"I like it." She looked it over. "Dude I swear I need to go back to your tattoo guy, I want this rose on my shoulder touched up and probably want a skull above it. I'm not really sure yet."
Randy shook his head. "You love skull tattoos."
"Why do I get the feeling Pharya was like your kid in another life?" Jon asked.
Randy chuckled. "That actually wouldn't be a shock."
"I could pass for Randy's kid." Pharya nodded, she looked at him. "Who's my mom?"
He shrugged. "Lita?"
"Ha! Good one." Pharya laughed. "Lita was my trainer though."
"Seriously?" Jon brow raised.
She nodded. "Yeah. After my brother and Phil taught me I was then coached by Lita and when she couldn't do it then Trish would step in for her."
"You are like a little Lita just with the mouth of your brother." Rnady said.
"Only in the ring but out the ring I'm the sweetest person ever." Pharya gave an innocent look. "But congrats on getting married again buddy hope she's making you happy."
"Thanks, and yeah she does." Randy nodded. "When are one of you gonna get married?"
"I don't know." Jon shrugged. "Me and Renee aren't really there yet, what about you?"
Pharya shrugged. "Can either one of you picture me married?"
Both Randy and Jon stared at her for a second. "No." They said unison.
"Then there is your answer." Pharya said.
"Hey, we almost ready for you guys. Randy you are gonna be coming with me over to the other Q&A table." A worker said.
"Thanks." Randy nodded.
Pharya sighed. "I'm actually ready for this, I haven't did questions since I was on Colt's podcast."
"You got this." Jon nudged her. "Get ready though, questions come like crazy."
"You two have fun. I gotta go over here." Randy said. "Lets grab lunch after this."
"Cool and have fun being questioned." Pharya waved.
They had a nice table set up with two microphone panels and chairs. "They will be filming Smackdown later on but now they are our guest here. Please welcome the Lunatic Fringe Dean Ambrose and everybody's new favorite Diva, the tattooed girl with no filter Ellie Brooks." The guy introduced.
People cheered loudly when they walked up the steps onto the stage, Ellie waved at them smiling before having a seat next to Jon with her water.
"Hey, guys." Ellie said as they cheered yelling hey back to her.
"Hello Ellie!" A little girl waved.
"Hi adorable!" Pharya waved back to her with a giggle.
"Alright let's get started here." The host said. "Who's gotta question?"
One person raised their hand as he came up to the mic. "I got a question for Ellie, How come you never came to WWE earlier?"
"Well I would have but I had kinda got tied up in my independent wrestling career with doing shows for CZW, IPW, NJWP, and then I was with ROH." She shrugged. "So I kinda had a lot of stuff to finish up down there and plus my contract with them wasn't done yet so I did have to wait for that."
Another guy came up. "How was it being in The Bullet Club? And do you still keep in contact with them?"
"It was awesome being in there dude I met a lot of awesome guys and it felt good to be in a group where I looked up to some of the guys. We had a family thing going on in NJWP. Finn Balor had brought me into the group, me and him developed a best friend relationship. You know we met in one show that was being held in Scottland and we hit it off right off the bat. I'm talking instant wrestling connection. Then I got Karl and Luke who are like uncles to me you could say, very funny uncles, you know the ones that think they are still young?"
"I have one of those." Jon nodded with a point as the people laughed.
Pharya chuckled. "But yeah those two guys were awesome to be around and party with to. Then my babies The Young Bucks who were like my annoying cousins who can Superkick the crap out of someone. Then the second person I look up to in wrestling AJ Styles, he was a good on the road teacher and awesome guy. I love all of them but I really bonded with AJ and we kind of had that father and daughter relationship, we bonded a lot over our past and wrestling. But yeah being in the Bullet Club and being the girl with them all the time was hard but it was fun to. I hope all of them come to WWE, they deserve it." She nodded.
A girl came up. "I got a question for Dean, how is it working with a female now? Especially a good looking one like Ellie?"
"I like her." Pharya nodded with a smile as people chuckled.
Jon smirked at her before looking back ahead. "It is awesome considering there is mutual respect there between both of us. I did shows with Ellie back at CZW and DragonGate, she is a real tough chick and a good sport when it comes to being in the ring. And you don't meet to many girls in the back excited to go up against guys or who is very willing, so I'm happy to be paired with her. We come up with a lot of great things to do with each other and I think because we are getting to better friends that it gets more easier."
"Aw." Pharya nudged him.
"Are you two dating in real life?" A person asked.
"No we are not." Pharya said clearly. "He has a relationship and I am single girl." The crowd oohed. "And no I am not looking." A couple people laughed.
"How was it doing a match with King Barrett? Were you nervous?"
Pharya nodded. "A little, you know I had a lot to prove and I got to show people exactly what kind of matches I did before WWE. You know he asked me before was there anything I didn't want him to do or that he should watch out for and he was a really good sport. Barrett is a cool guy but I told him to do the match like he would and not to worry about me because we both just wanted to put on a great match. Out of all the guys he volunteered to be in the match so I thank him for that and getting hit with the Bull Hammer was so cool."
Jon chuckled. "Crazy, crazy, crazy." He shook his head.
"I never said I was sane but on to more questions." She held her arms up as they cheered.
A couple days later; Pharya was sitting on one of the empty therapy chairs swinging her legs. She had a pair of gray capri sweatpants on, a white short sleeved v-neck with a pair of tennis while her hair was out in curls.
"Pharya that did not happen." Colby said as he laid back and was doing light leg lifts.
"I swear, that woman fainted when she saw Randy and Jon in that restaurant with me." She held her hands up in defense. "Jon had decided to throw a cup of water on her, Randy was all for it I but I stopped him."
Colby let out a sigh as he lowered his legs. "I mean throwing water on her would have did the trick, it would have been all over the internet but it would have worked."
"Oh that wouldn't be the first thing all over the internet." She waved it off. "How do you think people found out about Nikki's implants."
"Maybe because she posted about it on twitter?" His brow raised.
Pharya rolled her eyes. "Well sure if you wanna state the obvious but that is still on the internet. So there we go I proved my point."
He laughed. "If you say so, you ever got any surgeries done?"
"Nah and I don't really want to." She shrugged. "I feel like I was made how I was supposed to be. I mean there is nothing wrong with me, is there?"
"Not in my eyes no." Colby shook his head. "You really don't need all that crap so don't let anybody talk you into getting it. I will curse the day you take a selfie of you and your knew implants or something."
"So I should schedule my appointment with Dr. Miami tomorrow?" She asked, he playfully glared at her. "Kidding, I joke."
"Uh, huh." Colby whipped his forehead off with his towel.
His doctor; Vernon walked over. "Alright Colby, we are gonna have you walk some cones today, Pharya you wanna give me a hand?"
"Sure." She hopped down and handed Colby his crutches.
They walked over to were the cones were setup. "Okay so go stand over there at the end for me Pharya and Colby I want you to get to her without the crutches, think we can do this?"
"Yeah." He nodded and handed them to his doctor.
"Ready Lopez?" Pharya asked, he nodded. "Alright, come to me." She held her arms out.
He chuckled. "What am I a baby?"
"Yes." She nodded.
Pharya watched him limp, it looked like he was finally putting more pressure on his leg which was a start then from before. She was really proud of him for taking it so seriously, it seemed like he pushed what happened to Zhara and everything else out the picture. All he wanted now was to get back in the ring, his trainer had told her that he was actually going quicker then most would with this injury.
Colby had got around the last one, he stumbled forward a bit but Pharya put a hand on his chest to balance him as the other went around his torso. "You good?"
"Yeah." He breathed out with a sigh. "Took a lot more work then I thought."
"Yeah but you did great though." She patted his back. "All to get back in the ring right?"
He nodded. "Yeah." His doctor walked over and gave him his crutches so he could use them and take weight off his leg.
"That was great and we finished up in time. Your making progress everyday buddy, keep up the good work and I will see you tomorrow."
"See, you. Thanks again Vernon." Colby said to him.
"Don't thank me for my job." He patted his shoulder. "Tell your family I said hey Pharya, would you?"
"Yes, sir." She nodded waving. "Come on lets go, I'm starving. This one day I'm breaking this diet because I been seeing a Fridays every damn where and it has just been taunting me. I was this close to say screwing it and whipping into their parking lot last week."
Colby chuckled. "Come on crazy."
"I'm crazy for loving Fridays?" She asked. "Next your gonna say I'm insane for loving Ritas."
"You love Ritas?" He asked amused.
"Italian woman and Italian ice...I mean come on dude." She said as he started laughing.
After getting something to eat they headed back to Colbys for a bit. She couldn't stay long like last time since she had a flight to catch in the morning to go back on the road for Live Events.
Pharya sat on the couch playing with dog and one of his chew toys as Colby was next to them watching some old matches on the WWE Network. It was old RAW episodes of when The Shield had debuted after Survivor Series.
"Boo." Pharya said as they were beating down CM Punk and Daniel Bryan in the ring.
Colby did a double take with a chuckle. "Did you just boo me?"
"Yes you are beating down my brother and I like Daniel." She said, she pointed to the TV when the camera showed Colby again. "Aww look, your hair was really blonde back then."
"Yeah, I'm dying it back to full brown." He said. "I'm gonna keep it to the normal length that I had it back in 2013 before I trimmed it."
"Have you seen Joe's hair, I swear I want it." Pharya shook her head. "I would pay big money for his hair...don't tell him I said this."
Colby nodded. "That's exactly what I'm gonna do."
Pharya glared at him as he started laughing, she looked down at Kevin who was still trying to get the rope from her. "You see how mean your daddy treats me? He's a bad man."
"Don't put lies into his head." Colby argued.
"It's not a lie." She stuck her tongue out at him.
"Real cute." He threw one of the pillows he had on the couch at her.
It hit her in the face making her laugh. "I know I'm cute." She said flipping her hair back and bringing it all to rest over her shoulder. "Did you see my first Q&A with Jon?"
"Yeah." Colby nodded. "I got to know a lot about you in fifty minutes."
"Well they had a lot of questions. Except for this one guy who tried to start something up by asking if I thought I was better then my brother in the ring." She rolled her eyes. "But otherwise and that it was cool."
"I didn't know you knew Finn and AJ Styles though." He said.
Pharya nodded. "Yeah me and Finn met up and just bonded instantly, we did a couple more shows together before he went his own way and I went mine. Next thing I know I'm getting calls for NJWP and Finn asking me to join their group that they had. Then New Japan wanted me to sign a binding contract with them and ROH. It was a good one so I said yeah, next thing I know I'm with The Bullet Club and it wasn't easy but eventually I gained their respect."
"Thought you were one of those prissy wrestling girls?"
"At first but that wore off in like two days but then AJ Styles came back to New Japan and ROH and had joined and he is like my idol in wrestling. He taught me to do the peel kick and a lot of other moves to." She said. "I just like his ability and humbleness in the ring."
Colby agreed. "Yeah, me and him tore the house down when we had some matches but hopefully he does come to WWE so we can face each other. But is he really like a father to you?"
"Mhmm." She nodded happily. "He called me his unborn daughter since we are kind of alike. Me and him both had a bad past and we related on that especially when it came to fathers and stuff like that. But Allen is a really good guy that looked out for me on the road, we traveled together and everything. He made sure I was out of trouble, never got around the wrong people and at times really acted like an annoying father. And Karl and Luke were like the protective uncles, seriously if you were a guy back in ROH that didn't like me then don't be around them to talk about me. I can not speak for what they will do since I already saw it in a bar one time."
He started snickering. "You got into a bar fight?"
"No! Well yeah." Pharya sighed. "But it was that guy fault for being to handsy after I said I didn't wanna dance with him and he didn't listen. I was gonna handle it but Luke and Karl stepped in before I could and when Finn was with us he made it no better." She playfully rolled her eyes. "But I love my guys, I do hope to see them backstage soon though."
"Maybe you will, WWE is full of surprises." Colby shrugged.
"Can't believe you didn't know I knew Finn though." Pharya curled up her legs on the couch.
"Well he did use to always say that he had a crazy girl best friend that would mop the floor with some girls on the main roster and in NXT. I just didn't know he was talking about you though, how long have you known him?"
Pharya thought about it for a second. "Five years now, I started wrestling before that at recs and stuff but when I hit 18 it was done and over. I went everywhere but I met Finn when I was 19."
Colby mentally slapped himself for thinking it but he had to ask anyway. "You never looked at him in that way have you?"
"Who Finn?" Her brow raised, he nodded. "No not even a little bit and he hasn't looked at me like that either. We just been really close, he is like the second Cabana in my life which is like a brother." She gave him a look. "Why do you ask?"
"Just was curious." He shrugged.
Pharya's phone went off, she picked it and quickly answered it and put it on speaker. "What's up Jon?"
"Hey, what's up. You still with crutches?"
Colby playfully rolled his eyes as Pharya snorted out a laugh. "Real funny Jon."
"That's what Ellie calls you." He chuckled.
He snapped his head to look at Ellie who was in a fit of laughter. "What? It's cute for you."
"Well not to interrupt whatever is going on there."
"It's nothing like that, we are just talking on the couch." Colby said.
"Rightt..." Jon said sarcastically.
"Stop with the sarcasm, but what do you need Good?" Pharya asked.
"We gotta change up in schedule so be sure to pack up a lot because we are gonna be gone for Live Events and stuff especially for Tribute to the Troops coming up. Renee is hitching with Brie Bella and do not ask me why she hangs with them. I don't know." He said, Pharya closed her mouth since she was surely about to ask. "But it will be just me and you for the first two weeks of the Live Event, so no touching the radio."
"I'm gonna do it anyway man." Pharya chuckled. "But okay, I'll see you after my flight tomorrow."
"Alright, see you limpy." Jon said to Colby before hanging up.
"Seriously Pharya?" Colby looked to her with a glare.
Her hands quickly went up in defense. "That one was all him this time, I only called you crutches." She giggled. "But aww I'm gonna miss Renee with us, she is good to do karaoke with in the car. Well Jon is to so I'll be cool."
Colby shook his head at her amused. "You two have been getting close."
"Yeah, Jon is pretty relaxed guy. Also since your not there I don't really have that many people to talk to when I get bored." She shrugged.
"Right." He nodded.
Pharya noticed the change in his voice, her brow raised. "You okay?"
Colby looked at her. "Why wouldn't I be?"
"Cause your whole demeanor just changed on me." She motioned to him. "Did I say something?"
"No I just thought it was kind of weird that you hang out a lot with a guy that is in a relationship." He said.
"Whoa." Pharya sat up at the statement, she wasn't sure how to take that. "What are you saying over there? I hung out with you when you had a girlfriend and you thought it was perfectly fine."
"Well it was different."
"Oh yeah, how?" Her brow raised.
He matched her facial expression. "It just was, me and her weren't doing so good anyway so I kinda saw that coming."
"You don't have to lie, you know." Pharya said. "Nobody is okay with someone just walking out their life like that."
"Yeah, well I am." Colby shrugged. "That's what girls do, they find somebody new and just go their own way."
"Okay, why do I feel like your directing this towards me?" She pointed to herself.
"I'm not but if your taking it that way then it says a lot about you." Colby's tone came out cold.
Pharya wasn't gonna lie, what he just said hurt had hurt and almost like a stab to the chest. "It does, it says I'm leaving." She grabbed her bag and got up.
Colby used the arm of the couch to get up, he grabbed her wrist before she could fully walk pass him. "Wait Pharya, come on."
She whipped back around to look at him. "Come on what? Stay, so you can continue insulting me or throwing indirect things my way?"
"No, look I'm sorry alright."
"The heck is up with you? I don't know what girls you hung around but I'm not a homewrecker, if I was I wouldn't have cared if your girlfriend minded us hanging together." She said. "Why would you think something like that about me? What did I do to you?"
"You didn't do anything, it's just me." Colby shook his head, he had to look away from that hurt look she had in her eyes. It was a look that he never wanted to put there in the first place and he knew Jon would never do that to Renee. He knew Pharya wasn't that kind of person but the fact of her around another guy except for him had got him upset for some reason. "I'm sorry I didn't mean that."
"Then what did you mean?" She asked.
"I can't tell you." He sighed. "I want to but I can't, I can't even be around you the way I want to."
"What is that supposed to mean Colby?" She was now completely confused. "Just tell me."
Colby shook his head. "I can't." He pulled her in a hug, she was cut off guard a bit but closed her eyes and hugged him back. "Be safe at your Live Events, alright?"
"Colby." Pharya looked up at him.
"I'll text you." He broke the hug, he moved her bangs out her face before letting his hand fall by his side.
Pharya nodded. "Okay, call me if you need me." She headed to the door, bending down she petted the dog on her way out. "I'll see you in a few weeks buddy." Looking back at Colby, he flashed her a forced smile making her give him a small one. "Bye." She walked out and closed the door behind her, she let out a sigh and gave his door a sad look before walking off.
Colby let out a frustrated sigh as he limped back over and sat on the couch, he put a hand over his face and laid back propping his feet up.
He was already upset at himself about Zhara but now he felt like he just pushed Pharya out to but she was good girl that was focused on her career. To him it was better that she was gonna be away for a while to give him some time to think, he didn't wanna mess up her life or put more stress in it. It didn't seem like there was any room in her life for a guy anyway and not to mention he couldn't be with her as just a friend anymore...
That was chapter 11, don't forget to leave me a review for this and to check out chapter 12 to! The rest coming up will probably be Ellie chapters until around Slammy Award time.
