DISCLAIMER: I only own Nina!
Chapter Fourteen: Wrestlemania
"… still on the loose. It is reported Nina Clare and her boyfriend, WWE Superstar Jon Good – known as Dean Ambrose, still attended the Hall of Fame ceremony. Security has been tightened for today's Wrestlemania Event."
Nina sighed and flicked off the television and dropped the remote onto the bed as Jon slipped his arms around her from behind and placed a kiss atop of her head.
"Today is the biggest day of your career," murmured Jon, "We are going to focus on that and that alone."
Nina turned in Jon's arms and looked at him with a soft smile, "What did I do to get a boyfriend as wonderful as you?"
Jon shook his head and kissed Nina lightly on the lips, "I'm the lucky one."
Nina kissed Jon again, both toppling onto the bed as heat and passion exploded between them.
Nina and Jon walked into the arena, waving to the fans who cheered and screamed out at them from where they were waiting. Nina wanted to go say hello but security wouldn't allow her.
"It's for your safety," said the man walking beside her, "Mrs McMahon doesn't want anyone harming you, Miss Clare."
Jon gave Nina's hand a squeeze and Nina nodded in response to the security guard.
Nina and Jon went separate ways with Nina meeting up with Saraya and Natalie. The trio headed to the dressing room to start preparing. Wrestlemania was set to start in just over two hours.
Nina unzipped her bag and pulled out her black jeans. Jenny had styled them to have rips at the knees, the right thigh and one on the left. Her Luce shirt was cropped to just below her ribcage in a hap hazard fashion to keep with her eccentric fashion. Nina moved her make up bag to the side and selected her red belt and black boots with zippers along the outside, sides.
"You put more red into you hair."
Nina looked up to see Natalya smiling at her, "Oh yeah… just so its in the ponytail as well."
"It look's good. Are you nervous?"
"I feel like I'm going to hurl."
Natalya laughed, "You will be fine. Once you're out there you feed off of the audience's vibe."
Nina nodded and the diva's continued to get ready.
"The match card looks good," commented Nina peering at the screen with Saraya and Tenille, "Kick off match is Natalya vs. Naomi followed by Zack Ryder vs. Adam Rose."
"The Andre the Giant Battle Royale opens Wrestlemania… then Tyson and Cesaro vs. The Usos vs. Los Matedores," read Saraya.
"And then it's Undertaker vs. Bray Wyatt… that should be interesting," said Tenille, "And The Miz vs Damian Mizdow is after that."
"And then it's our match," grinned Nina as she hip bumped Saraya.
"Followed by the boss and Sting and ending with the WWE Championship match," read Saraya with a sigh, "Busy night."
Nina nodded.
"Saraya!"
The divas looked up to see Colby standing near a camera man. Saraya was decked out in her ring gear and hurried over to Colby to do an interview.
Nina and Tenille found a couple of chairs and set them up to watch the kick off.
Nina jumped up and down. Two and a half hours later she was preparing for her big match. She stretched out her muscles and let out a slow breath to try and calm her nerves.
"Babe!"
Nina turned around and smiled as Jon walked over. He was ready for his own match, except his hair was still dry.
"You are going to go out there and steal the show. I know it," he said before leaning in and kissing her red lips lightly.
"I love you," replied Nina, "Save some energy for later, okay?"
Jon grinned at her cheekily and slid his hands to cup her bottom, "You bet I will."
"Keep it family friendly!" teased Saraya from near the entrance to the guerrilla area.
Nina stuck her tongue out before turning back to Jon and stealing one more kiss, "I gotta go kick her butt now."
"I'll be watching."
Nina smiled and hurried into the guerrilla section murmuring to herself, "You and the rest of her world."
"Let's rock this show!" yelled Saraya, fist bumping Nina before her music hit.
Nina watched on the screen as Saraya switched on her Paige persona and walked out to the huge Wrestlemania crowd. The audience greeted her with the expected boo's but Nina watched as Paige ate it up with her smirk and stride, some time's side skip.
Nina moved near the entrance to the stage, watching Paige skip around the ring and jump up onto it to raise the belt, remove her jacket and scream.
Then it was Luce's turn to arrive.
The guitar sound hit and instantly the audience was up. The music increased it's tempo with the angry riff and drums and Luce walked out onto the stage, to the top of the ramp and raising her right fist up into the air, acknowledging the crowd with a knowing smirk. The singing started and Luce ran down the ramp and slid into the ring, under the bottom rope before jumping up and running over to the turn buckle. She raised her fist again.
"YEAH!" screamed Luce, "This is my ring!"
The WWE Universe yelled back positively and Luce could see many signs in the crowd supporting her taking Paige down, along with Dean destroying Seth Rollins. Luce stood on the ring as her music stopped and Paige looked back at her, still holding the title. The referee stood between them, stopping any pre-match beat downs, but the WWE Universe were eager to see the match between Paige and Luce finally happen. It had been taunted at since Royal Rumble and now they would get their payoff.
"You won't take this from me!" yelled Paige.
"You know I will," retorted Luce, "That baby is mine."
Paige handed the title to the referee, keeping her eyes on Luce the entire time, "Stop looking at my belt!"
The referee finally signalled for the match to begin and within a split second Paige had tackled Luce down to the mat and was laying punches in thick and fast. Luce held her hands up to her face until the referee managed to yank Paige off. Luce rolled quickly and got to her feet, as Paige screamed at the referee. As Paige turned back to Luce, Luce returned the favour and tackled her down, returning the flurry of punches and hits. She moved away before the referee could pull her off. Luce walked a circle in the ring, smirking deviously as she ran her tongue over her top lip.
"She's as insane as her boyfriend, Dean Ambrose!" Luce heard JBL yell at the commentators table.
Luce yelled at Paige to get up, which the diva finally did. Paige screamed and ran at Luce, but Luce dodged the tackle and Paige flew between the two middle ropes, landing on the ground before the commentators table. Luce ran over to the turnbuckle and climbed to the top.
"Yeah!" yelled Luce before she jumped from the top, flipping mid-air to land a dropkick onto the downed Paige.
The crowd screamed in excitement at the move as Luce rolled off of Paige and stood up, fist pumping the air. Without missing a beat, Luce grabbed Paige by the hair and arm and pulled her up and shoved her into the ring. Paige rolled into the middle as Luce slid in and went for the pin.
1…2! Paige kicked out and Luce quickly stood up and circled around Paige like a predator. Luce leant down to pull Paige up, but Paige grabbed Luce and moved her into the roll up pin, which Luce kicked out of just before two.
Paige stood and yanked Luce up, slamming her into the turnbuckle. Paige ran and hit Luce with the clothesline, making Luce slump down. Paige continued by standing on the bottom rope, either side of Luce and then slamming her boots into Luce's chest.
Luce winced and clutched at her chest as Paige backed away with an evil grin. Paige moved forward and grabbed Luce. She looked to Irish whip Luce but instead hit her with short arm clotheslines. Luce hit the mat repeatedly until Paige moved away to taunt the crowd.
Luce rolled to the edge of the ring. She saw Paige moving towards her and rolled out of the ring, much to Paige's annoyance. Luce glared at Paige and made to look like she was about to slide back in. Paige dove towards her but Luce jumped to the side, then jumped forward, smacking Paige across the face in the process. The diva stumbled backwards and Luce slid back to the ring and stood up. Paige ran forward and Luce slammed into her with a clothesline. She grabbed Paige and yanked her up and ran her towards a turnbuckle. Slamming her into it, causing her shoulder to mainly take the hit. Paige fell back onto the mat. Luce ran forward, jumped onto the bottom rope and flipped backwards, hitting Paige with the moonsault.
Luce rolled off of Paige, both feeling the effects of the match. Slowly, Paige rolled onto her side as music hit.
Seth Rollins came hurrying down to ring side, moving around to Paige's side, checking on her. Luce sat up and looked over at Paige and Seth. She could hear the audience chanting for Dean Ambrose and had to hide her amused smile. Luce stood, ran to the opposite rope and ran across the ring, dropping to hit Paige with a sliding baseball kick. Paige slammed out of the ring and into Seth Rollins, causing the WWE Champion to fall back, with Paige landing roughly on top of him.
The WWE Universe cheered in agreement as Luce stood up. Seth moved Paige off of him before helping her stand up.
"You crazy bitch!" yelled Seth at Luce.
"Get out of here!" shouted Luce, "This is between me and her! Not you, kiss ass!"
Seth moved towards the ring, his hands balled into fists but stopped as soon as the theme of Luce's boyfriend hit.
The crowd went insane as Dean Ambrose strode out to the top of the ramp and made his way down to the ring quickly. Luce looked at Seth with a smirk as the referee counted to six.
Paige told Seth she would be fine and slid into the ring. Luce stepped back and eyed Paige off as Dean and Seth glared at each other before moving to opposite sides of the ring.
Paige and Luce circled each other again and locked up onto a grapple. Luce got Paige into a headlock. She ran towards the rope, bounced off of the bottom rope and slammed Paige's head onto the mat in a perfect running bulldog.
Paige rolled onto her back and Luce went for the pin but Paige kicked out at two. Luce rolled away and stood up, but Paige was faster and hit Luce with a boot to the ribcage. Luce dropped down to the mat and Paige walked over with a smirk. She yanked Luce up and began to lock her in for the Paige Tap Out.
"Don't give in, Luce!" yelled Dean.
"You've got this, babe!" yelled Seth from the other side, "Make her tap!"
The WWE Universe were on their feet yelling for Luce to get out of the submission hold as Paige locked it in. Luce cried out as Paige screamed for her to tap out. Shaking her head, Luce violently wriggled in Paige's hold. Allowing her feet to be unhooked. With the strength she had left, Luce used Paige's hold on her arms to yank the diva over and slam her onto the mat.
The reversal stunned Seth as he looked at Paige and began yelling at her to get up. Luce fell down to the mat, exhausted and slid over to the corner where Dean met her.
"You're doing great, babe," he said softly, "Everyone wants you to win this."
Luce nodded and pushed herself up to her feet and climbed up to the top rope. She gestured for Paige to get up, as the crowd became more on edge for what they knew was coming. Paige staggered to her feet, not listening to Seth yell at her to go the opposite way. Luce jumped from the rope, spinning and hitting Paige with the kick of No Mercy. Paige fell and Luce landed and moved quickly for the pin.
1…2…3!
Luce stood up stunned as her music hit and she was announced the winner and the new WWE Diva's Champion.
"The winner of this match, and the new Diva's Champion, Luce!"
Dean slid into the ring and hugged her tightly, kissing her on the lips as the WWE universe cheered for her. The referee handed Luce the belt as Seth pulled a woozy Paige from the ring.
Nina looked at the belt in wonder and shook her head in amazement. It all felt like a dream.
"No hard feelings, Raya?" asked Nina as the diva walked into the locker room.
"Of course not. It's all part of the job," she smiled before hugging Nina, "You are brilliant to work with though."
Nina smiled and looked at her watch, "We better get out there."
The two divas hurried back to the stage, with Nina clipped the diva's belt around her waist.
Currently Dean, Seth and Roman were going at it in the ring. Dwayne Johnson nodded at them from where he stood before looking back at the monitor. Dean had Seth down and Roman was in the corner, out of it. Dean prowled around Seth hungrily and was about to go for the kill until music sounded.
Out came the Authority, Triple H, Stephanie, Kane, The Big Show, Joey and James Mercury, along with Paige.
"You set for this?"
Nina looked up in surprise as Dwayne stood near her, "Oh… yeah."
He grinned at her, "Good match by the way. Amy and Trish would have loved to work with you."
Nina smiled, "Thanks."
Looking up at the monitor, Nina watched as Dean was pulled away and had Paige taunting him. Now it was her turn.
Her music hit and she ran out, with the crowd glad to see Luce return, only this time she was donning a Dean Ambrose hoodie as well. She ran down to the ring and slid in, dodging Joey and slamming into Paige, knocking her out of the ring and onto the ground. She stood up and ripped off the belt, throwing it at a surprised King and turning around. Jamie was looking at her and she jumped, hitting him with a kick to the stomach, causing him to slam into the metal steps. She turned and quickly backed up as Kane eyed her, with Stephanie screaming at him to get rid of her. He reached out but Dean jumped from the ring and forced Kane to hit the barrier. Luce turned to the ring and pointed at Stephanie. The crowd cheered before they booed. Behind Stephanie Triple H had Roman set up for the pedigree.
Then another theme song hit. The Rock came bolting out and down to the ring. He slid in as Luce climbed in. The Rock had the Big Show down and out and tackled Triple H away from Roman. Stephanie backed away from Luce, as Luce stalked her before also tackling her out of the ring. Dean slid back into the ring with him and Roman eyeing each other off.
Luce kept her eyes on Stephanie and Paige, as the Rock watched Triple H. Kane stood up and moved towards the ring but Luce grabbed a chair and ran at him, smacking him in the back as Dean and Roman fought it out fairly. Kane cried out and turned towards Luce, stalking towards her. Luce backed up onto the steel steps and jumped at Kane, catching him to yank him down head first into the ground.
The Rock had Triple H down and out, along with the Big Show and Joey. Luce still had Paige on the ground from her hit, Jamie was rolling in pain from the stairs and Stephanie was slumped against the barrier.
The match in the ring continued with Seth still passed out from the hits he had taken. Dean and Roman were still going with Roman just missing his hit of the Superman Punch. He turned and Dean set him up for the Dirty Deeds. Suddenly Seth sprung to life and kicked Dean in the back of the head. Dean fell and Luce yelled out at him to get up.
Seth did the same action with Roman and waited to hit the curb stomp.
Both Luce and The Rock were yelling for the person they wanted to win to get up. Roman stirred first and started to get up, only to be curb stomped by Seth. Seth quickly went in for the pin.
1…
2…
Dean dove over to Seth and tackled him off of Roman and locked him around the middle and hit him with the Midnight Special.
Dean covered Seth for the pin.
1…
2…
Triple H jumped up and yanked at the referee.
The Rock pulled at Triple H and hit him with the DDT. Dean covered Seth again and the referee returned to counting.
1...
2…
3!
"Here is your winner and the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Dean Ambrose!"
Luce slid into the ring, jumping over Roman and Seth and into Dean's arms. He wrapped his arm around her and used one arm to take the belt from the referee, and kissed her fair on the lips.
"You won!" grinned Luce.
He smiled back, "So did you."
Nina looked up at the dark ceiling. She couldn't sleep. Her body was exhausted – Jon had definitely helped with that – but her mind was active. So much had happened in one day.
She had begrudgingly, gone on Twitter and thanked her fans, rang her family and friends and enjoyed a dinner with Jon and their friends.
Quietly, Nina slipped out of bed, pulling on her shirt and panties and slipped out of the room and into the living room. She picked up her laptop and turned it on, jumping onto Facebook to try and unwind for a bit.
Nina! Glad you are on.
Nina smiled at the message from Jacob and typed back her reply.
Yeah. Can't sleep.
Nina minimized the chat box and scrolled through her Facebook, laughing at the video Kylie posted of her nephews jumping up and down cheering at their Auntie Nina winning against Paige. She burst out with laughter as Elijah stated his Auntie could kick Brock Lesnar's butt any day.
Have you been on YouTube lately?
Nina frowned at Jacob's question and replied that she hadn't visited the website since she left Australia in December.
Jacob sent her a link and Nina clicked on it. The page loaded quickly and the video automatically started playing. On the screen it was black with white words appearing slowly.
Luce… You will see this…
The screen transitioned to images of her on RAW and at meet and greets. And then it displayed videos of her with Jon. Of them walking along the street talking, laughing and hugging. Of them at the airport, of them kissing and sharing affectionate moments.
Luce… You don't want Dean…
Again the video displayed images of videos of Jon out partying, stumbling drunk, intimately dancing or interacting with other women.
The video then displayed images and videos of Nina before her WWE days, of her with her family, at other wrestling events. They were all from her own Facebook page.
You are too pure… too innocent for Dean… you belong with me and me alone… I am always watching… always…
Nina gasped as a video of her leaving a gym just the other day was shown, along with her shopping with Saraya and Natalie.
I will have you…were the words to finish the video.
Nina sat staring at the screen shakily. Her breathing was erratic as she looked up to see the open curtains of the hotel room. She quickly stood and ran over to them and yanked them shut tightly. Her phone started buzzing and Nina looked at it to see Jacob's name flashing on the screen. Nina grabbed it and answered his call.
"Hello?"
"Did you watch it?" asked Jacob worriedly.
"Yes… I thought he'd stopped."
"Stopped?"
Nina blurted out everything to Jacob, finishing with him swearing loudly and muttering to Susie he would tell her after.
"You need to report him again Nina. He is stalking you… you and Jon."
"I know!" cried Nina, running a hand through her long hair, "Stephanie and Paul have security at a max… Jon doesn't deserve this. He didn't sign up for this shit… he didn't have this shit before I came into the picture."
"Nina, I know what you're thinking and don't. If you walk away from Jon you let that sick bastard win."
Nina let out a sob and sat on the lounge, covering her mouth but movement behind her told her Jon was awake. The phone was taken from her and she heard Jon speak to Jacob. Nina pressed play on the video when Jon looked at her laptop. She watched his features tighten as the video played and he handed the phone back to Nina and grabbed his own when it finished.
"Nina?" came Jacob's worried voice.
"I'm here… I'll let you know how it goes, okay?" said Nina softly.
"Call me. Any time."
"Bye Jay."
"Bye, Nina."
A/N: There we go. A big win to a big low.
