I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Julie's Point of View-
I pulled the chair out at the table Wade and Stephan sat at, I slid into the chair as Drew claimed the chair beside me as I just gave him a look.
"How'd it go?" Stephan asked.
"They are teaming us up…" I said wanting to leave it at that.
"She's going to be my love interest." Drew said as I physically smacked myself in the forehead as Stephan and Wade were letting out soft steady chuckles.
"You got to be joking." Wade said.
"I wish he was." I said as they both burst into laughter, "Laugh it up." I said.
"I don't see what is so funny about it." Drew said.
"What's so funny is that you two have to be a romantic couple and you two can't last an hour by yourself." Stephan said.
"We can too…" I said.
"This is going to be fun…" Wade said, I was kind of surprised that Wade was okay with this whole thing and wasn't storming to go talk to Hunter about this because he has always been protective of these type of things but I guess since it was for work and professional it doesn't bother him as much as if it was outside of the company then he would probably have a bigger fit.
"Well, it won't be anytime soon so we got a few weeks to get comfortable with this whole romantic thing they want us to do." I said as I looked over to Drew who was smiling.
"I'm going to go grab some grub and get ready for my match tonight…." Drew said as I nodded, I looked to the two other men that were at the table with me who collected their things doing the same.
"You want a ticket for tonight?" Wade asked as I thought about it.
"Nah, I think I will be better sitting back here…don't really feel like sitting out in the audience tonight…" I said.
"Okay…I'm going to go get ready for my match…" Wade said as I nodded as I watched as the three men headed out of the room chuckling, mainly Wade and Stephan as I looked back forward at the place of my table in front of me thinking about this storyline with Drew that I was to do and the things I was to do with him, but it was only momentarily. I got up going to the tables of food and drinks gathering something to eat and drink before I headed back to the table I had left my belongings at claiming my seat again setting my food and drink on the table and left it untouched as I bent over searching through my bag finding the packet I was given by Mrs. Connor about the museum to read over, it was something for me to do while the show took place.
"Hey…" I heard the cheery female voice of Beth drawing my attention away from the page in the packet in front of me.
"Hey…don't you have a match?" I asked.
"Nah, got the night off…Natalya is working a match tonight…" Beth said as I nodded, "What are you reading?" Beth asked curiously as she sat up straight trying to hunch over a little to see what I was reading.
"This dang packet…" I said closing it over my hand that kept my spot to show the front of the packet.
"Metro Art Museum of Florida…is it a history book?" Beth asked as she crossed her legs.
"Nah…they are interested in my work and wanting to hang it in their museum, just reading up on the history and what is required of me…" I said.
"That's amazing! Congrats!" Beth said as she leant over hugging me the best she could and I accepted the hug.
"Thanks…just some of these words are too smart for me…" I said smirking.
"Hey, four years of college doesn't make anyone smart…it just makes you learn how to bull shit your way through things…you want help?" Beth asked.
"To read or to understand these words?" I asked.
"Both, I want to know more about the future sight of my friend's photography…" Beth said as she pulled her chair closer to me as she began reading with me over the packet and making jokes about some of the things we were reading. "Well, I got to go use the restroom and find my ride…I originally came by to give you this." She said as she pulled out a box from her jacket pocket, I knew that it seemed odd for her to wear a jacket this time of year but she was wearing a tank top and I usually do the same when I wear a tank top, she handed me the box.
"This looks expensive Beth." I said.
"Like what you bought me for my birthday wasn't expensive." Beth said as I smirked remembering the present I had gotten her, the Bill's jersey with her favorite's number and name on the back.
"It wasn't that expensive…" I said as she gave me this look, "Well maybe just a little but it was worth it…" I said as she handed me the box and I nervously grabbed it and opened it seeing a ring with a small diamond and on the inside of it had an engraving that was part of the Serenity prayer, which is my favorite verse that I usually recite and written in my notebooks.
"I know how much you enjoyed that verse and they couldn't fit all of it on there so I cut it down to the part I remember you always written all over…let me know if you need it resized, I use my finger as a model and I assumed we should have about the same size." Beth said.
"It should be fine…thank you so much Beth!" I said as I hugged her and she gave me just as tight of a hug back before I sat back up pulling the ring out sliding it onto my left hand's ring finger making sure it fit, it was a little loose but it wasn't too loose where it will fall off. "Perfect fit…remind me that you and I have the same ring size when I get into a serious relationship." I said.
"Remind me too…any guys? What about that one dude you told me about this past semester? What happened with him?" Beth asked.
"I thought you had to use the bathroom?"
"I can hold it…my ride isn't going anywhere either…" Beth said.
"He turned out to be a giant jerk…needless to say we didn't even make it through one date…" I said.
"I'm sorry sweetie…well maybe you'll meet someone at the museum that has the same passion for this art thing like you or hell, there is a lot of fine guys around here…" Beth said as she began to look around catering where a few of the male talent sat around and I then turned to look over my other shoulder seeing Drew walking in looking at his phone.
"Well, besides him…" I said.
"Even Drew can be attractive to someone…maybe just not you…"
"I have to pretend to be…" I said as she gave me this confused look, "I signed a contract to wrestle and they want to put me in a valet and romantic storyline with Drew." I said as I pushed a strand of hair behind my ear.
"That is going to interesting to watch…you got a lot of work ahead of you for that…you got a lot of plans and career objectives ahead of you that are falling into place, I'm always here for support and help if you need someone to read too advance packets with…" Beth said pointing at the opened packet as I glanced to it before I looked back to her smiling.
"Thanks Beth…I might need more help and a best friend in the next few months…"
"I need a best friend…plus, we got Natalya…she's always the best…" Beth said.
"She truly is…we need a girls night one night…"
"Definitely…I'll talk to Natalya…you going to be in town for a promo shoot soon?"
"Sooner than later, probably whenever my wardrobe is completed…"
"Well, we will aim for about that time then so I'll talk to Natalya and see if she will fly in for that week for girls week…" Beth said as I nodded as Drew sat into the other seat beside me.
"Am I invited to this girl's week?" Drew asked.
"Unless if you have a pair of boobs hiding under that shirt somewhere, then you aren't invited." I said as I heard Beth trying not to let out laughs and fighting it back by biting at her lips.
"I may…" Drew said smirking as he took a bite of his food off the fork.
"You two got work to do, and I can't contain my bladder much longer…bye girl." Beth said as I hugged her one last time.
"Bye B…" I said.
"See ya Beth!" Drew said as she waved her hand as she hurriedly walked out of the room doing the wacky bathroom walk like she was trying to clench her legs shut. "You actually read that thing?" Drew asked.
"Well, most of it…the parts I understood…" I said as I leant over grabbing my bag pulling it onto my lap and shuffled through it finding a pencil. I set the mechanical pencil onto the table as I zipped up the pocket of my bag and put it back down on the ground beside my chair before I picked up the mechanical pencil.
"You still annoyed by the regular number two pencils?"
"They don't annoy me, just the sound they make as they scrape across the paper…" I said in a corrective tone as he chuckled.
"Whatever…what are you going to write?" Drew asked.
"I figured try to get a jump start on my biography…what does a biography even contain?" I asked as I laid my arms flat onto the table trying to think what to include in my biography.
"Didn't your teacher say that it would be easier for someone else to write it for you?"
"Who would write it for me?" I asked as I looked to him as he smiled as I shook my head no, "No, you aren't going to write my biography…"
"Why not? I can write just as much of a biography as your brother." Drew said.
"You may write something embarrassing."
"I'll write it in pencil and if you don't like it then you can erase it…" Drew said as I ran a hand through my hair as I looked at the blank sheet in front of me that had lines waiting to be filled with writing for my biography then I looked to him, what better way to trust him than this? I trusted him, but I needed to fully trust him more considering I needed to start relying on him more with this whole fake relationship we will need to put on for the WWE universe whenever they bring me in.
"Deal." I said.
"Great…it'll be done by the flight home so you can read it…" Drew said smiling as he pulled the packet in front of him looking at the sheet that I was just staring at.
"Do you know how to write a biography?" I asked curiously.
"You'll about to find out." He said smiling as he shut it and rested his hand over the cover, "But we need to get going, your brother and Stephan are waiting for us…"
"You came in here to get me to leave and we just wasted more time?"
"Eh, they can wait a little while…" Drew said as he stood up grabbing the now empty plate he had put food on earlier to eat taking it with us and he tossed it as we walked out of the room.
"Don't you guys have matches tonight?" I asked as I wrapped my hand around the strap of my bag that was on my shoulder.
"We did...you must have been really bored or time must have slipped by you fast…" Drew said.
"Must have…" I said shrugging.
"You know Wade is going to tell you to pull that other strap on, right?"
"I know, but he isn't here and by the time we get out there it'll be too late to do anything about it." I said smirking as he chuckled.
"Honestly, I carry my bag that way too." Drew said.
"It's more comfortable and it's like in times of rush you don't really have time to put the other strap on…"
"Plus, it makes you more cool…" Drew said.
"Only you would do it for the cool factor."
"Is there any other factor to do it for?" Drew asked.
"Absolutely right…" I said as he pushed the door that led outside and he stepped beside the door putting his foot in the front of the bottom corner of the door holding it open along with his corresponding arm as I walked out behind him, "Thanks." I said.
"No problem…" Drew said as he let the door shut behind us as we headed towards the car that we had rode in earlier today seeing my brother and Stephan already sitting inside talking away.
"I guess we aren't driving through the night…" I said as I noticed this.
"I guess not, possibly tomorrow night." Drew said as he did a half smirk and I smirked back before I pulled the car door that was in front of me open before I slid into the seat buckling up as Drew did the same on the other side of the back seat. Stephan drove us to the hotel that we were to stay the night at for tonight knowing that we had to get up early yet again tomorrow and I wasn't really thrilled about it.
