Chapter 21: Mom and Dad
The next morning around 10, Elena woke up and called her brothers to meet them for breakfast downstairs. She threw on some jeans and a t-shirt n flip-flops before grabbing her purse and heading down to the lobby. Elena waited for them by the elevators, and saw them walking out, looking tired as hell.
"You guys look awful," she laughed.
"Well you didn't stay up until 4am!" Scott yawned.
"Yeah, because I have more common sense than that. Trust me, 10 is sleeping in for me," Elena chuckled leading them both into the café she and Dave had eaten in before. Oddly enough, they all ordered the french toast.
"So, while you guys are too tired to be smartasses, what did you guys talk about with Dave last night?" Elena asked.
"You, duh!" Scott said with his mouthful.
"I know that!" Elena replied. "But what about me did you talk about?" she asked seriously.
"Don't worry Squirt, we didn't tell him anything for you to be worried about," Kenny told her. Elena nodded, feeling a bit relieved. "He really seems to like you though."
Elena started blushing, and tried to hide it by eating her food. "Well we are friends, and we do work together," she said.
"You know what he means. And don't bother trying to hide it, you like him too!" Scott winked.
"Shutup!" Elena said throwing a piece of food at him.
"Settle down children." Kenny chuckled, only to get two pieces of food thrown at him. "Kids" he sighed dramatically. All three of them laughed, and continued eating.
"So, what do you guys think of him?" Elena asked moments later.
Both of them just shrugged their shoulders, as if they didn't have an opinion, until Elena asked them again. "From what I've seen he seems to care about you. I mean hell, he paid all that money for us to be here with you. Then, from what we see him do for you on tv, he really does seem to be looking out for you. Which is good since god only knows what madness you get yourself into." Kenny chuckled. Elena just gave him an evil eye before looking to Scott for his opinion.
"I like him. If you're happy I'm happy." was his simple, yet pleasing response. "So everybody likes him! Can we move the topic to when you're gonna get us those hot divas numbers?"
"HA! Yeah right!" Elena laughed. Both Scott and Kenny kept begging her to at least mention them to the divas, only to get shut down every time. "You guys couldn't handle those women," she chuckled.
"Yeah we could," Scott whined, only making her laugh harder.
Once they were finished, Elena walked them out to the limo Dave had hired for them the night before.
"It was so good to see you guys again," she said while hugging them both goodbye.
"Good seeing you too," they both replied. After they both gave her a kiss on the head they got into the limo and drove off. Not before they both stood through the moon roof and yelled "WE LOVE YOU SQUIRT!"
Elena had tears and a smile on her face before heading into the lobby to go back to her room and get more sleep. Just before she got into the elevator, her phone started ringing.
"Hello?" she answered.
"Hey Angel, it's Teddy Long," Long replied.
"Oh! Hello Mr. Long, what can I do for you?" Elena asked.
"Well, I saw what happened last night between you and Melina. What I figure is, that you two will have your own match against each other next Friday. How does that sound?" he asked her.
"Wow! I love it! I'm in," Elena replied, happy to finally get her hands on Melina, legally.
"All right then. I'll just give Melina a call and let her know what's going down. Holla holla holla!" Long said before hanging up.
"Yes!" Elena exclaimed before getting in the elevator. Once she got to her room, she remembered her promise to Kenny and Scoot to call her parents after they had left. "I should probably do that before I take a nap," she told herself pulling out her cell phone.
Elena heard the phone ringing, before an older woman's voice answered, "Hello?"
"Hey mom!" Elena greeted, happy to hear her mom's voice.
"Elena! It feels like it's been forever! We were able to watch your show last night. You didn't get hurt did you?" her mother asked worriedly.
Elena smiled at her mother's concern, "Nah. You know me, I don't get hurt, just irritated." Her mother laughed along with her.
"Oh, it's so good to hear from you sweetie, we've missed you so much!" her mom said.
"I know, I wish I could come see you guys, but my schedule is always crazy. But the second I get free time I'm coming home!" Elena stated determinedly. "How's dad doing? The guys said his stomach was bothering him."
"Oh you know your dad, a stomachache means he's got a deadly virus." Elena laughed, knowing that's exactly how her father was. "Oh! I knew the next time I talked to you I was gonna ask you something."
"What's that mom?" Elena asked.
"Who is that man that seems to be saving you every week?" Elena could just see the playful smirk on her mother's face now.
"Mom!" Elena whined.
"I'm just wondering! He's very good looking!" her mom said.
"His name's Dave Batista, I'm his and Rey Mysterio's new manager for a while. I'm trying to help them get their titles back," Elena explained.
"Are you two simply work associates?" she asked slyly.
"We're friends mom!" Elena laughed. "So if you're done trying to get some dirt on me," she chuckled, "is dad around?"
"Sure. He's right here. I love you sweetie!" her mom called out.
"Love you too mom!" Elena replied, hearing the phone be passed to someone else.
"Is that my little girl?" an older man asked.
"Yes it is!" Elena smiled, glad to hear from her wonderful dad. "How are you?"
"Oh I'm doing all right! I may have a stomach virus, but other than that–"
"You do not!" Elena could hear her mother shout from a distance. Elena couldn't hold in her laughter.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm thinking of going to a doctor, but I'll see if it gets better." he told her.
"Sounds like a good plan dad," Elena chuckled.
"I saw you kick some ass last night. Very nice!" her dad said, and she could hear him applauding.
"Well I learned from you dad," Elena told him. Elena's father always watched wrestling, and never missed a show, wanting to know everything that was going on in the business.
"Yeah, someone needs to shut that girl up! I hate it when she screams like a banshee!" her dad stated.
"You and me both, along with the rest of the world I'm sure. But next week, I promise to put a stop to it," Elena smirked.
"How so?" her father asked with interest, as Elena explained her match on Friday. "It looks like your calling in life is shutting that woman up!" her dad chuckled.
"Looks that way," Elena agreed.
"Well you know I'll be watching! Speaking of which..." her dad started.
"His name's Dave, and I'm the new manager for him and Rey Mysterio. I'm helping them get their titles back," Elena repeated, knowing where he was gonna go with his question.
"All right. Just know that if he tries pulling anything on you, you give me a call. I'll put that muscle to the test." Elena smiled at her dad's protectiveness of her.
"I know you will. That's why your number is on speed dial," she laughed, her father joining her.
"Well listen sweetie, you had a big night last night, and I want you to take it easy today. Get some rest, okay?" he told her in his fatherly tone.
"Yes sir," Elena saluted. "I'll give you guys a call before the next show. I love you daddy."
"I love you too sweetie." he replied, and both hung up. As soon as she put the phone down, Elena continued to think about her parents.
I hate being away from them for so long. They've been through so much with me, it's hard to be away from them. You'd think I'd be used to it now but...oh well.
Elena's parents had always supported her in her dream to becoming a WWE Diva. Her father would always say that she had more talent, and was far better looking than any of them. In fact she had the most support from her father, who paid for and watched her training.
When she got the phone call that WWE wanted her as a full-time diva, her father replied to them, "You're gonna have the best on your team now. So take good care of her."
Her mother started crying, and hugged her so tight, saying how she would miss her being away from home. "If I could I'd send your brothers with you to look after you," she said.
"You know I'd be taking care of them!" Elena laughed, her mother joining her. They were the first people she called on her debut night.
Her match was about to start, when she called them in hysterics. "I can't do it! I can't! I'm not as good as those other girls!" she cried.
"Now you listen to me honey," her father said. "You've worked way too hard to back down now. Those other women? Most of them probably haven't made it through even half the stuff you have. You've conquered a lot of obstacles, and you're there because they know and we know that you'll be the best. All right?"
"Yes sir," Elena replied, wiping her tears away.
"He's right sweetie, you're there to bring hell! So let's see you do it!" her mom cheered into the phone.
"Okay. Thank you mom, dad." Elena hung up the phone, wiped her eyes, and walked confidently to the curtain for her first match ever in the WWE. Hells yeah, was all that went through her mind when she heard her music playing for the first time, and she walked down to the ring.
And there's a lot more hell to raise around here, Elena smirked to herself as she laid in her bed, finally ready for her nap.
A/N: Yay! More family! I figured if you guys liked the brothers you'd like the parents! Again, sorry for the delay, college is crazy, but you guys don't want or need excuses, just chapters! Lol. I hope you enjoyed it :)
