Chapter 14 – There's Always A Catch

It had been a few weeks since Extreme Rules when Colby had made his big return from his knee injury; four weeks to be exact. Karlee was staying as far away from him as humanly possible. It was close to the end of May and tonight was the Money In The Bank PPV.

Jon had already done his media for the morning and even went to the gym with Joe. They'd gotten a really good work out in. He'd made it back to the hotel room and quietly moved around the room letting Karlee sleep. He's been wide away since 5 a.m. and did not want to wake her up. He got showered and cleaned up and knew he smelled better then when he first arrived. He pulled his jeans on but walked around barefoot.

When he stepped out of the bathroom the sheet was wrapped around Karlee's torso but her long legs and black cotton short covered bottom was sticking out. The white racerback tank top she was sleeping in. Jon chuckled softly sometimes she slept like she was in a tornado.

Jon gently crawled into the bed as he came up behind Karlee and wrapped his arm around her. He felt her start to come alive as she slowly rolled over to face Jon and buried her face in his chest. "You finally waking up beautiful?" His gravelly voice asked.

Karlee nodded as she wrapped her arms around his torso. "A little."

Jon's lips found her neck as his arms pulled her closer. "How about some naked time?" He suggested. His hands slid up the back of her shirt, the bare skin was screaming his name.

Karlee pulled back as she attempted to push against his chest. "No, No. Jonathan! You've got a match tonight at the PPV! No sex until afterwards. You'll blow out your thighs and I'm not going to be held responsible for shitty wrestling."

"Oh come on babe. Don't be a stick in the mud." Jon tried to reason.

"Okay I'll make a deal with you. Either no sex now until after the PPV or Sex now and no sex for the rest of the month." Karlee bargained back.

Jon groaned. "That is dirty pool and possibly blackmail."

"And yet it works so well for me." Karlee smirked.

Jon's blue eyes narrowed as her jade eyes were sparkling with mischief and he already knew he was NOT going to win this argument. "That's fine, I can wait. I don't want to wait, but I can."

"So since we aren't having sex do we have to get out of bed yet? I mean I know right about now we would be going separate ways to avoid having sex, but I'm way to comfortable to let either of us move." Karlee smiled up at Jon. "Do you think you can control yourself a little?" She smirked.

Jon chuckled as he rolled over onto his back pulling Karlee with him. "I'm not a complete animal woman. I can control my urges. I don't always have to be buried balls deep in your body; even though that's where I like to spend the majority of my time."

"Good, then kiss me." Karlee requested.

Jon smirked. "Who am I to deny a beautiful woman?" He sat up as she sat straddled on his lap before he cupped her face and caught her lips with his. She just needed a little bit of a make out session to hold her over until after the PPV event. Jon would deny her nothing. He knew exactly what she needed right now and was actually damn good at always knowing what she needed.

Later that night, Karlee was sitting back stage with everyone when she got to watch as Jon won the Money In The Bank brief case she was so happy for him, she couldn't keep the smile off her face. She watched as he stood on the ladder in the middle of the ring and celebrated. He was so cocky when he was in character, but she loved it. She loved watching him do what he really did best and that was wrestling. He knew how to tell a story like no one else in the ring.

As soon as he got out of the ring and walked to the back he already knew she was going to be waiting for him. There was really no one that supported his career more than she did. He pushed through the red curtain and seconds later a body smashed into his. Jon chuckled as he wrapped his free arm around her waist and held onto her as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders.

"I can't believe you won. You didn't even tell me you ass." Karlee admonished.

Jon chuckled harder as he looked down at her. "It's called a surprise beautiful."

Karlee cupped his cheeks in her hands as she pushed up on her toes and placed kisses all over his face before she eventually caught his lips. "I'm so proud of you." She couldn't have been any happier.

"So does that mean I get a naked celebration tonight?" Jon asked with a smirk on his face.

"I think that can be arranged." Karlee teased as they walked down the hallway and everyone was congratulating Jon about his Money In The Bank.

Dark eyes watched as his ex-Shield brother won the most coveted briefcase in the WWE. The Money in the Bank briefcase had a contract in it for a shot at the WWE championship anytime the holder wanted for 365 days, but once it was cashed in whether the person won or lost the contract was done and gone. Colby had won it the year prior and then basically stole his other ex-Shield brother's chance at being Champion.

Colby had been trying his hardest to get Karlee and Jon split up. Every time Jon was in the ring or away from Karlee he would catch her alone and tell her he'd seen Jon hanging around random female superstars without her and he looked like he was getting awfully 'chummy' with Natalya Neidhart. Colby could tell she was starting to really think about the things he'd been telling her.

Colby smirked as he watched the couple walk down the hallway as Jon received loud congratulations from almost everyone in the back but him. He wouldn't say a word to that trash. Jon was running Karlee's reputation and if they didn't split soon; Karlee would be considered trash as well. He witnessed Natalya running up to Jon and hugging him to her as Karlee stepped aside and watched the display. Colby could see the green eyed jealousy devil make it present. They were sure to implode any day now.

Later that night Seth was going to be winning the championship a second time from Joe, while he went on a 30 day suspension. No one in the company could quite figure out what Joe had done to get his ass in a sling with Vince and was not only losing his Heavyweight title, but Vince had also tacked on a 30 days suspension as well. Colby had been informed of the suspension and the title change as soon as he had walked into the arena. If anyone knew the real reason for Joe's suspension they weren't talking. Hell even Joe was tight lipped about it.

Colby chuckled to himself. Later when he won the championship it would just be another step in the direction of getting Karlee back. Why would she want to be with trash like Jon when she could have a champion on her arm again? He would just have to make her see the error of his ways. He had come up with the BEST lie ever and was hopeful that she believed every word of it.

Karlee couldn't stand the fact that Jon was close with Natalya. She was married and yet every time she turned around Natalya and Jon were somewhere back stage talking in hushed tones. She knew she was glaring at Natalya as she watched the blonde hug Jon so tightly. Nattie was married to TJ Wilson. They had been together since she was 16 and rumors were going around that right now Nattie and TJ's wedding was on rocky ground. So she really couldn't help the glare she threw towards the blonde.

Clearly she fixed her face once they pulled away from each other.

Jon reached back over and snatched Karlee's hand as they continued down the hallway and Natalya took off in the opposite direction.

Maybe Karlee should talk to Jon about this whole jealousy ache she had in her body, or maybe she was over reacting. She wished she could control all of it.

Karlee sat and was watching as Joe and Colby went back and forth in the ring for the heavyweight belt. Everyone already knew Colby was winning because of Joe's suspension. She watched in total disgust as Colby pinned Joe and got the three count as his music start playing and the ref handed over the belt and raised his arm.

Karlee shook her head. She couldn't believe that jackwagon was champion again and was the official face of the company once more. It made her nauseas to think Jon had to play second fiddle to that garbanzo for however long Vince decided one more. Karlee looked down at her hands in her lap. She hadn't noticed that Jon had disappeared and she didn't see him anywhere back stage – he probably hated this just as much as she did and he probably took off to his locker room so he wouldn't have to watch the little maggot in the ring celebrating.

Suddenly her jade eyes snapped up to the monitor as Jon's music began blaring through the speakers of the arena. The announcers and fans were going absolutely ape shit as they waited for him to appear at the opening of the stage, but he never showed up…no he did what Colby would've done. He snuck into the ring behind Colby and when the little maggot turned around Jon blasted him in the face with the briefcase in the middle of the ring. Colby and the title both went flying to the mat.

Jon slid from the ring and handed over the briefcase as the ref pointed to the ring announcer. Lillian Garcia announced that Jon was cashing in his Money in the Bank contract. Jon got back in the ring and proceeded to drop Colby on his head with his finishing move and covered him for the win. Everyone in the arena was on their feet completely losing their minds. Jon had just pulled off the biggest upset in the history of the company and was now officially the WWE Heavyweight Champion.

Karlee couldn't stop the tears of joy from streaming down her cheeks as she watched Jon celebrate loudly and vehemently in the middle of the ring. The fans were deafening and you could BARELY hear his entrance music through the noise of the crowd. She watched as Colby scrapped himself off the mat and left the ring.

Karlee stood in front of the monitor still in complete shock when Colby stalked into the back. As he walked by he shoved over the monitor that Karlee had been watching. She smirked. "I was done watching that anyways."

Colby stopped in his tracks before he spun around and looked at his ex-girlfriend. "He will never be the champion I was. He's nothing but trash Karlee and the sooner you figure that out the better off you will be. Haven't you figured out that he's using you yet? He saw an opportunity when you caught me and he took advantage of it."

Karlee shook her head. "He's already a thousand times better Champion then you ever were Colby. He doesn't need bodyguards to help him win and he sure as hell doesn't need to injure his opponents in the ring to win matches either. Jon's safer than you ever thought of being. Go be bitter and jealous of him somewhere else." She watched as he huffed before he turned on his heels and continued grumbling and knocking shit over as he went down the hall to his locker room. Karlee just watched as she shook her head. She didn't hear Jon come up behind her.

"Psssst."

Karlee spun around fast as she came face to face to Jon.

"Well well – if it isn't the WWE Heavyweight Champion." Karlee stated in a low voice; her jade eyes locking with Jon's icy blues.

"At your service Miss. Mathews, but tell me something – what can the champion do for you?" Jon's gravelly voice asked as his thumb came up and ran across his own bottom lip as he took a step forward.

Karlee pursed her lips together. "Well I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you; and I have so many better plans in my head for the evening." Karlee stepped forward as she grabbed his left hand and started untaping it; once she was finished she threw the tape away and then did the same with his right hand; the whole time the championship was sitting on his right shoulder in all its shiny glory. "How about you go get your things and we go back to the hotel and well start with a shower and a nice rub down for those sore, tired muscles." She suggested.

Jon's index and middle fingers pushed into the front pocket of her jeans and pulled her closer to him before the same hand slid around her waist and down to her jean covered ass as he leaned down and pecked her lips once, twice then a third time before his hand griped a handful of her backside pulling her even closer as his lips smashed against hers in a heated no nonsense kiss. Jon felt giddy when she moaned against his mouth. He pulled back and smirked. "Go get the rental." He requested as he pushed the keys in her back pocket.

"Yes sir, Mr. Champion."

Jon watched as she turned on her heels and left; he already knew he was going to have his hands full with her tonight. Jon got to his locker room and was shoving everything in his bag and one of the guys from the backstage crew had stopped by and changed the plates on the belt to his 'Dean Ambrose' plates and also dropped off the case the belt would go in for traveling.

There was a knock on the door. "Come." Jon invited. He turned and watched as Colby walked into his locker room. "Are you lost?" Jon asked.

"No man, I decided to come in and congratulate you on the win." Colby stated. Damn that left a God awful taste in his mouth. Colby put his hand out. "The best man won."

Jon sighed as he shook his ex-Shield brother hand and placed his hands on his hips. "What's the catch now?" Jon asked curiously.

"No catch man. I just wanted to come say my piece and I have so I'll let you get to the celebrating portion of your night. See you around man." Colby walked out of the dressing room with a smirk. If it was the last thing he did he would ruin Jonathan Good; he would ruin him so much that he would be wishing he never came to the WWE.

Jon didn't believe for a second there wasn't some kind of catch to that hand shake, but for now he wouldn't worry about it. He had a beautiful girlfriend waiting in the parking garage for him to help him celebrate his wins for the night and by God he wasn't going to let anything spoil his night.
