Soon their music started and all three headed out. Alex never let Jessica go. They got into ring and waited for their opponents. Alex helped Jessica out of the ring and told her to stay out of the way. Jessica watched the match go back and forth, then Alex finally got the pin and the three count. Jessica moved around the ring to start heading back up the ranp. Alex and Chris got out of the ring. Alex picked up Jessica and carried her backstage.
"You can put me down now." Jessica said.
"Could but won't." Alex replied.
"Please Alex." Jessica said.
"Not until we get to the women's locker room." Alex replied.
"Right now, you are so lucky I'm not wearing a skirt." Jessica said.
"Would have been a nice view." Alex replied.
A few minutes later, Alex carefully set her down in front of the women's locker room. Jessica kissed Alex on the cheek before heading inside. Jessica had to change into another outfit before heading out to find AJ. A few of the knockouts were getting ready for their matches. Jessica had finished changing and left the locker room. She was in search of AJ but ran into someone totally different.
"Excuse me." Jessica said.
"Where's the fire cutie."
Jessica had to look up and saw he was cute but didn't let it get to her.
"I'm sorry for running into you, Mr. Morgan."
"Since you know me, who are you unless I keep calling you cutie." Matt replied.
"Jessica."
"So where's the fire." Matt asked.
"No fire, looking for AJ." Jessica answered.
"Last I saw him, he was in the locker room." Matt said.
Jessica turned to leave but was stopped.
"Don't be a stranger." Matt said.
"What?" Jessica asked.
"Don't be a stranger around here. Get to know people and they'll either accept you or hate you." Matt answered.
Matt left Jessica. She turned around and started walking. There were so many new faces along with some familiar to her. Out of nowhere, Jessica's path was blocked.
"Good to see you, Jessica."
"Leave
me alone, Raven."
"What did I ever do to you."
"It's been a long day and it's not over. I'm sorry."
"I know you well to know you're not lying."
"I have to find AJ, so please move."
Raven moved and watched Jessica walk away from him once again. Jessica stopped in front of the men's locker room and knocked on the door. Robert opened the door.
"Is AJ here?" Jessica asked.
"Give him a minute." Robert answered.
He shut the door and Jessica moved away from the door. She hopped onto a crate. AJ walked out a couple of minutes later and saw her. He walked her way and handed her one of his shirts.
"You don't have to wear it." AJ said.
Jessica put rhe shirt on over her tank top.
"Everything okay." AJ asked.
"Physically ran into Matt Morgan, then got stopped by Raven." Jessica answered.
"Did they hurt you." AJ asked.
"Honestly they scared me more than hurt me." Jessica answered.
AJ pulled her into a hug and just held her for a little while.
"AJ."
"Hmm."
"You can always hug me."
"I know that."
"When do we go out again." Jessica asked.
AJ let her go long enough so she could get off of he crate. AJ laced his fingers with hers and lead her towards the ramp.
"Still up for the part of pissing Jeff off." AJ asked.
"Yeah but I'm gonna change it just a little." Jessica answered.
"Am I gonna be mad?" AJ asked.
"No, you'll love it. I promise." Jessica answered.
"So match first, then the rest." AJ said.
"I thought it was the other way around." Jessica replied.
"Usually it is but not this time." AJ said.
Not to long after AJ's music started and he took Jessica hand and lead her out onto the ramp. He put her in front of him while he did his thing. They walked to the ring and waited for his opponent. Before the match started, Jessica leaned closer to AJ to kiss his cheek as planned but grabbed AJ's face and kissed him on the lips. She then got out of the ring and stayed out of the way. The match went back and forth and AJ finally got the pin. He got out of the ring and grabbed Jessica and hugged her. They walked back up the ramp and backstage.
"That kiss is gonna piss Jeff off for sure." AJ said.
"I know and it'll be worth it." Jessica replied.
They headed back to the mens locker room, James and Rober were waiting for them.
"Ready to go." Robert asked.
"I just need to get my stuff." Jessica answered.
Jessica left the guys and headed towards the women's locker room. She once again ran into Raven.
"What now?"
"Talk to me."
"We've never talked, we've always fought."
"Not
always."
"Yes always."
"Have you
forgotten those cold winter nights."
"That's all
they were, you wouldn't commit to me so I ended it."
"Why so hostile."
"Why, because I have a physopath for an ex and a fucked up family."
"You
use to love that about me."
"That was before
everything got screwed up."
"In time it'll get
better."
Raven left her and she continued to the locker room. She opened the door and walked inside to ger her bag. She soon walked out and headed back the way she came. Jeff came out of no where.
"What was that." Jeff asked.
"What was what." Jessica answered.
"The kiss with AJ." Jeff asked.
"It was a good luck kiss nothing more." Jessica answered.
"That better be all." Jeff said.
Jessica bypassed Jeff and headed to the men's locker room. Both Robert and James stood there waiting for her.
"You okay." James asked.
"Ran into Raven twice, Matt Morgan and just recent Jeff. So every things just peachy." Jessica answered.
"Let's get you back to the hotel." James said.
"Chris and Alex are gonna be over with dinner." Jessica replied.
"You sure that's a good idea." Robert asked.
"Probably not but it's either now or never." Jessica answered.
All three started out of the arena and were headed towards the car. Not to long after, AJ caught up with them.
"I heard Jeff talked to you." AJ said.
"Yeah but before that it was Raven again." Jessica replied.
"So what's with you and him anyway." AJ asked.
"Raven is her ex before you." James answered.
"Before you ask, I ended it because he couldn't commit to one thing." Jessica said.
"But why does he keep bothering you." Robert asked.
"He wants me back, what else." Jessica answered.
"So you coming up later." James asked.
"Maybe, I have things to take care of first." AJ answered.
James, Robert and Jessica got into the car and AJ watched as Robert drove the car out of the arena.
