Chapter 12

"Ok guys, before Paul and Drea get here, I had a brilliant idea last night." Eddie grinned at his friends who just waited for him to reveal his idea. "Spill it already!" Carly chuckled being impatient and the other guys nodded in agreement. "Ok here's the deal, I thought, I could talk to Steph about a storyline I had in mind. Maybe we're lucky and she approves it." Eddie mentioned and took a sip of his coffee. They nodded and Peter scratched his head "What exactly did you have in mind?". But before Eddie could answer the question, Paul arrived at the table and only a short time later, Drea. They ate breakfast together, talking about different stuff and even Paul did talk once a while, cracking his usual jokes. After breakfast, they all got ready to travel to the next city. Drea decided to travel with Peter and Torrie for today, since Eddie had 'important' business to do.

A few weeks had passed and everything seemed to go more than well for Drea. Eddie and her arrived at the arena together, with her reading the new storyline she just received. "Oh my god! This can't be real!" Drea covered her mouth in shock as they had just entered the arena, Eddie shot her a weird look "What's wrong Mamacita?". "I'll tell you later, I need to bring my stuff into the locker room. Can you tell Paul please, that I need to talk to him, it's important!" she mentioned and rushed off, leaving Eddie grinning ridiculously "Strike!". He walked through the halls and entered the men's locker room "London here yet?". The guys shook their head 'no' and Eddie sat down next to them.

"It worked!" he grinned and they looked confused at him. "What worked?" Peter asked being lost and Eddie shook his head laughing "My storyline idea homes. It worked. Wait 'til Paul gets here and you'll witness the whole thing.". A few minutes later, Paul came into the room and went to his place to unpack his stuff, the other guys being totally quiet. All of sudden Drea stormed into the room, rushing over to Paul, grabbing his right arm and pulling him out of the locker room. "See, I told you." Eddie chuckled and the other guys laughed. Outside Drea tried to catch her breath again and Paul looked confused at her "Drea? What's wrong?".

She let out a hugebreather "Did you receive your new storyline yet?" and Paul nodded still with a puzzled look on his face "I did, but I didn't read it yet. Why? What's going on?". "Read this!" Drea stated and handed him the script. He read it completely and at the end, his eyes got big. Was this really real what he just read with his own eyes? Paul began to stutter "Are...are they really putting us together as a couple?" and she nodded at him. "This just came out of nowhere and I never had to deal with something like this." Drea threw her arms up in frustration and he nodded "I know what you mean. I didn't have that kind of storyline yet either. But maybe they believe, this will get us in a better spot. As long as you're cool with it, I'm cool. We can do it, right?".

She smiled "Damn right we can. We will so gonna kick ass out there." and Paul laughed. Drea looked down again, her smile fading "You know Paul, I consider you a close friend and I could really need someone who I can talk to, sometime this week." and he put his hand on her right shoulder to comfort her "You know whatever it is, you can always talk to me. I'm always there for you. Anytime you need me.". Drea smiled at him, looking deep into his eyes "Thanks so much Paul. This means a lot to me." and Paul pulled her in for a hug "No problem girl.". They parted and Drea smiled going back to the women's locker room, Paul still staring at her for a few seconds before he went back in. The guys immediatly sat down, as they were obviously listening at the door. Paul raised his right eyebrow at them "Ever heard of something called privacy?" and they chuckled, being amused by all of this. Shaking his head, Paul went back to his space and got ready for his match tonight.

"So are you ready for your match?" Drea smiled at Paul, while they were standing at the gorilla, waiting for Paul's music to start. He nodded "Yup. You ready?" and she also nodded. Paul's music started and Drea gave him a small pat on the back before he went out and made his way to the ring. During the match, she waited backstage and watched on the monitor, silenty cheering him on. "Drea? You're next!" a stageworker said and she went over to her spot at the gorilla. When the stageworker gave her a sign, Drea sprinted out by the cheers of the fans, slid into the ring and took away the steel chair from Melina.

Then she tossed her out of the ring and hit Johnny Nitro with the chair, but the referee didn't see it. Paul covered him and picked up the win. Drea walked backwards, staring at Paul in the ring with the steel chair in her right hand and he stared right back at her, totally in their characters. "There is obviously some sort of thing going on between Drea and Paul London, don't you think Tazz?" Michael Cole stated and pointed at the Titan Tron, where a replay of the last minutes was shown. Tazz nodded "You're right Cole. I wonder what will happen next with the two of them." and Smackdown went into a commercial break.

"Are you alright?" Drea asked Melina, who just helped her boyfriend Johnny Nitro to get backstage. Melina looked at her like she just wanted to slap the taste out of Drea's mouth "Alright? ALRIGHT? Well what do you think idiot, you almost broke my neck throwing me out of the ring.". Both Paul and Drea blinked at Melina as Nitro tried to calm her down. "Come on baby, don't be so harsh on her." Johnny mentioned squeezing her shoulders, Melina shoved him away and muttered a 'Fuck you Drea!' before leaving.

"What the fuck is her problem?" Drea asked in disbelief looking at Johnny, he shrugged his shoulders "Don't know, but you shouldn't take it too serious Drea. She's probably PMSing or so." and she rolled her eyes "Whatever.". Drea gave Paul's hand a squeeze smiling at him, before she walked off to the women's locker room. "That girl's digging you man." Johnny grinned and Paul shot him a puzzled look "I doubt that man. We're just friends.". Johnny laughed putting his left hand on Paul's shoulder "Yeah right London!" and walked off, leaving Paul standing alone, alone in his thoughts.
