A/N: I KNOW IT'S BEEN FOREVER SINCE I UPDATED ANYTHING BUT READ MY PROFILE UPDATE FOR TODAY AND IT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING.
Chapter 25
Ok, so my birthday was awesome. After the show we all went to Cedar Point. Since it was a supershow taping then they didn't have to work until Thursday for a house show. We being me, Jeff, John, mom, dad, Mike, Beth, Nattie, Matt and Lisa. Steph actually offered to watch Chad for us so everyone could come. I had a blast. The last night I spent with Jeff before I went with mom was a blast too. But today is Monday and I had told Vince before we left for Cedar Point that I was gonna talk to him. So I'm sitting in his office waiting for him so I can tell him about me and Jeff. I hope it goes over well. 5 minutes later he walks in and sits down.
"So what did you need to see me about Katy?" he asked
"Well Vince, Steph said that I need to tell you since you're doing all this for me"
"Tell me what?" he smiled
"Well… I don't know how you're gonna take this"
"Just tell me you and Jeff are dating" he smiled
"What?" I was in shock
"I've known from the beginning hun" he folded his hand and leaned across the desk
"How?" I was totally clueless
"Jeff actually told me when he began having feelings for you. He didn't wanna get fired or suspended for feelings he couldn't control" Vince explained, catching me up to speed.
"Ok. That makes sense but it makes me mad too" I stated as I sat back down
"Why is that?"
"Vince, you have no idea how much I stressed over having to tell you this. Jeff knows how much I stressed over it and he could have just told me that you already knew. Instead he…
Vince cut me off "let you do the right thing and tell me yourself. He loves you so much but he does know that you're still young and wants you to be able to do things on your own. Things he knows you can do but wants to somewhat help you"
I thought for a minute and smiled "That makes me feel a lot better Vince. Thanks"
"Anytime Katy. Was there anything else you needed?"
"Actually, I was wondering if I'm gonna go back and forth with my training"
"Somewhat yes" he began to explain "The first month Melina is your trainer. The next month it'll be your dad John. Then the next month will be Beth, then Jeff, then John Cena, then Nattie and Lisa then Paul and Shawn then Mike and Matt. Then if you need more we'll start over. You get a month with each person and yes I expect you to follow each of them everywhere so you can get the gist of the job too and not just the performing part"
"Awesome. But when I'm over at…"
He cut me off again "Yes when you're at Smackdown you'll still get to hang with Jeff"
I just sat there and smiled "Can you read my mind or something?"
"No, I just know what it's like to be in love honey. It's a great thing" he smiled and with that comment all I could do was smile back "And since I like you so much, I was gonna try and surprise you but I'll just tell you. I called in a favor, there's someone in particular that I want working with you on the acting part, ya know, your character and to find your voice"
"Who's that?"
"Well since Steph's in charge of creative, one is her. But the one that I had to call for the favor is Steve Wiliams. Better known as…"
I cut him off this time "Stone Cold Steve Austin. Oh my god Vince, you didn't" I couldn't believe it, there's no way.
He smiled "I did" he said as he pushed a button on his phone/intercom thing "send him in" and in walked Stone Cold.
"Vince this is amazing, thank you so much" I ran around his desk and gave him a hug.
"So you must be Katherine" Stone Cold said. I walked up to him and shook his hand.
"Ya but you can call me Katy. What would you prefer me to call you?" I asked, cause I wasn't sure.
"Steve's fine. Let's go find Steph and find out what your characters gonna be like so we can get started" he suggested
"Sounds great" I said then walked back over to Vince and gave him another hug "Thanks again Vince"
"Have fun you guys" he said then we walked out of his office
"So I gotta ask. How much time do I get with you?" I asked as we walked towards Steph's office
"Just a week but you'll learn a lot. Trust me" he reassured me
"This is so awesome. I'm sorry I just never thought I'd get any help from you" I stated
"Why do you say that?" he questioned
"I just never thought you'd be back. Ya know, cause of your knee" I pointed out
"Gotcha. For wrestling I won't be. I told Vince when I originally left that if he ever needed anything that didn't involve me actually wrestling. Like a guest ref or helping trainees find their voice then I'd do it. Cause I love this business. No matter what I do, I can't COMPLETELY leave it. Nobody can, no matter what they say" he explained what sounded like something to jot down.
"I'll keep that in mind" I smiled
"There's lesson one. Once you're here, you're here for life pretty much. I know Vince has already done a lot for you already. He told me a lot about you. In my opinion, if he dished out half a mil to keep you then he expects great things from you. I think that's why he called me up cause not to be conceited but I am one of the best on the mic" he stated
"It's not conceited, it's true" I mean ya it is conceited but he has a right to be for that cause it is true.
"Well thank you" he said then we walked into Steph's office.
"Hello Miss Stephanie" Steve said as we walked in
"Hey Steve, hey Katy. You guys ready?" she asked as she straightened up some papers on her desk
"Yep" we both said
"Have a seat" she motioned, so we did
"So what's her first character?" Steve asked
"First she's gonna be face. She will actually be introduced to the WWE universe as Melina's daughter. For the first 2 or 3 months Mel will accompany her to the ring. She won't say anything in the ring for first month but she will have some backstage segments with Mel. We want her to start off as being so appreciative of the chance to be here. Maybe even being shy to meet everybody" Steph explained my first gimmick
"Alright, Steph we'll be back" Steve said and we left her office and I followed him to catering and we sat down.
"What are we doing?" I asked
"I'm gonna see what you got. Tell me somebody; one of the top starts preferably that you haven't met yet"
So I thought "Ummm… Ric Flair. I haven't gotten to meet him yet"
Steve looked around and saw him eating at a table all by himself "Alright. We're gonna walk over to him and you're gonna introduce yourself to him and you have to put on the shy act. From what I'm told that might be hard for you. Cause you also seem like it but you're very out-going"
"I am. But I'll try"
"Ok. Ready?" Steve asked and I took a few deep breaths
"Yep" I said and walked over there and we both sat across from Ric.
Ric looked up and said "Hey Steve, long time no see. How are you?" I looked down at the table
"I'm doing pretty good. Yourself?" Steve asked
"Same here. Who's your friend?" he asked so I continued looking down. Steve nudged me and pointed to Ric. I shook my head no.
"You said you could do it" Steve smiled
"I know what I said but I didn't think you'd actually make me do it" I whispered
"Just do it. You're gonna have to get used to it"
"Ok ok" I took a deep breath "M-my names Ka-Katherine. B-but you can call me K-katy" I said quietly while still looking down
"Sorry. I didn't catch that" Ric said and Steve nudged me again
"My names Katherine" I looked up "But you can call me Katy" I said louder
"Nice to meet you Katy. I'm Ric" I shook his hand "You look pretty young. Does your mom or dad work here?"
"Ummm…ya. Melina and John Hennigan adopted me and my little brother"
"Cool. You a little nervous to meet me or something?" he smirked
"I…I guess you could say that" I continued to look down again
"I don't blame you though" he smiled, trying to get me to laugh
"Ya" I said then whispered to Steve "Alright I did it. Can we go now?"
"Ya we can" he said to me then looked at Ric "Nice seeing you again Ric. By the way Stephanie wanted me to tell you that she wanted to see you in her office as soon as you can"
"Alright. Nice to meet you Katy" he stood up
"Ya" was all I said then he walked away
"I don't think I'm gonna have to do a lot of work with you" Steve smiled
"What?" I just wanted to make sure I heard correctly
"That was great. Now we're gonna sit here for 5 minutes and then go back to Steph. She wanted me to send whoever it was to her office to ask them about what they thought of you. See if you pulled it off and I believe you did" he complimented
"Yay for me" I smiled "Are we gonna do it like that for each type?" I asked
"It's the best way, in my opinion" he answered. Good, cause I like this.
"Ok, so what's next?" I asked, getting myself amped up.
"I don't know yet. We'll find out when we go back to Steph" he looked at his watch "Which is now" so we walked back to Steph's office and Ric was about to walk out.
"Hey Ric. I just wanted to say that you are fucking amazing in that ring, even now" I said and smiled
He looked between the 3 of us a few times then looked at me, I think he caught on to what happened "I think you're gonna do pretty damn good in this business" he smiled and walked back out of the room.
"Oh my god. Did Ric-freakin-Flair seriously just say that?" I smiled from ear to ear
"I believe he did. He bought that you were shy. He said you were shy as all get out. So you did great Katy" Steph said as me and Steve sat back down.
"She did do good Steph. So is she gonna turn on Melina when she tells her that her dads still alive and actually works here?" Steve asked
"You're so smart Steve. But that's not the whole thing. Not only is she gonna turn on just Mel, she's gonna turn on ALL the girls. Cause she's gonna assume they all knew he was still alive too. So basically" she looked at me "You're gonna be a complete bitch. So this time I'd say find a diva you haven't met and be a bitch to her. Then when you're done send her to my office"
"Can do" I said and Steve and I left again
"Anybody you got in mind?" he asked me
"Sure do. Barbie, I haven't met her but to me, she's not the best in the ring. Normally I wouldn't actually say that to her but I'm supposed to be a bitch. So it all works" I smiled
"That works… There she is" we saw her walking out of the locker room "Hey Barbie hold up. I want you to meet someone" Steve said and we walked up to her.
"So… Barbie Blank? Blonde Barbie that can't do shit in the ring. I'm Katy" I held out my hand for her to shake.
"Excuse me?" she obviously didn't shake my hand so I pulled it back closer to me.
"You heard me. You have your spot on looks alone"
"Hey little girl, I can wrestle" she tried to counter
"Ya, worth shit. As long as you're on offense during the whole match then it looks good cause it's up to your partner to make you look good. But when it comes to you on the defense to make them look good then you suck ass so much that it's not even funny" I went on my rant
"What is you're problem?" she asked, totally caught off guard
"Pretty little bitches like you getting their spots on looks alone. If it wouldn't get me in trouble I'd…" Steve grabbed my arms
"Ok Katy that's enough" Steve started to pull me away "Sorry Barbie. Hey, Steph wants to see you ASAP" he said and she walked to Steph's office.
"Wow. I totally don't wanna get on your bad side" Steve laughed
"That good?" I asked
"Hell ya it was. And just between you and me. And I mean it, don't tell anyone I said this but I totally agree with everything you said"
I laughed "That's awesome Steve. I need to get some water" so we went and got a bottle of water then went to Steph's office. When we walked in we saw Barb sitting across from Steph wiping her eyes.
"Oh my god. Barb I'm sorry. It was part of my character training. I had to walk up to someone and be a complete bitch. So I had to expose the little weaknesses you have. I didn't mean to make you cry" I gave her a hug
She hugged me back "I understand, Steph told me. I just feel so stupid now that I even let that get to me" she dried up the rest of her tears.
"I'm really sorry" I said again
"It's ok. Atleast I know you're not really like that. You'll do good here. Good luck"
"Thanks" I said then she walked out.
"Oh my god Steph. Did I really make her cry?" I asked incredulously
"Ya you did Katy" she smiled "In a way that's good though. It lets me know that you're not afraid to be mean"
"Thanks" I grinned
"Alright. That's all for today. Just spend the rest of the day with Steve. Take good care of her Steve" Steph reminded him
"Don't worry Steph. I will. We don't wanna lose this little acquisition" he smiled
