August-
Meg's Point of View-
I had finished my training for the job, I had already called and talked to the company in Florida near where Roman lives, they were excitedly waiting for me, at least that is what they said. I looked around my room that was pretty much all packed up besides the clothes that were scattered over my bed and the gowns hanging in my closet that I need to put in the garment bag I had.
"So, you are for real going? It seems your room has gotten emptier and emptier as days had passed." Courtneh said as I looked over my shoulder at her as I let out a sigh.
"Yeah….I can't not go…I mean, isn't life about taking chances?" I asked as I saw her flop onto the bed.
"Yeah they are…but, can you promise me something?" Courtneh asked as I looked at her confused.
"What?" I asked as I pushed a pair of jeans into the bag.
"Can you promise you'll be smart?"
"Huh?" I asked confused.
"Your last boyfriends, you were blinded by what you thought was love and I had to swing in and be the asshole….I don't see Roman being like them, I didn't get that vibe from him and by what I saw, he is head over heels in love with you but…you are moving all the way to Florida with him, just…promise me that if he turns into one of those jerks, you know when to walk away." She said as I could tell she didn't mean it offensively.
"I'll know…I've been expecting that moment every day or every conversation with Roman…so I'll be expecting it and you'll be the first person I'll call." I said as she smiled and she pulled me into a hug.
"You know I love you like a sister, right?"
"I love you too Court…and thanks for understanding…"
"No worries…I'll send off rest of these boxes Monday but you, we got to get you to the airport." Courtneh said as I nodded as I stood up letting out a sigh as I grabbed the garment bag that held the dresses that I would need for this week and dreading to wear along with grabbing the suitcase that would get me through the week until I got to what was to be Roman and mine house. Courtneh drove me to the airport where I checked in and made it through security as I sat in the terminal texting Roman that I made it to the airport and I'll be in LA soon. I looked out the window at the airplanes on the runway letting out sighs in disbelieve as to what I was about to do, that I was about to board a plane to LA and make a move to Florida. I began to wonder if maybe Roman and I were moving too fast considering we have only been dating for a few months now but yet it felt so right, I was just nervous that this was not going to go well or that I was making a mistake. I tried not to worry too much about this being a mistake because I didn't know what the future held but the nerves and the worries were still there. I went and got myself a coffee as I was trying to calm my nerves trying to think if I had packed everything, if I was ready for this. This was like the final nail into this relationship that I was and will be a WWE wrestler's girlfriend and that this relationship was serious, there was no turning back. The most fear was that I'll be so far from home, Florida and Missouri is a long ways from each other and it's not like I can just back to Courtneh's for the night if something happened. I began to wonder where Seth and Dean lived, or hell even where Naomi or Cameron lived because I needed a back-up in case if I needed a place to go if something goes down between Roman and I, I doubted there would be a problem or something like that would happen but I can't predict the future. I then began to worry about this week, it was a whole week in LA with Roman who had to do many promotional work and media for WWE along with meet and greets and red carpets and a show, what was I to do when he was out being his famous wrestler self? I'm sure I could find something to do, and that I can go hang out with Cameron or Naomi if they didn't mind. I heard my flight being called as I let out one last sigh before I headed towards the gate to be let onto the plane and slid into my seat to fly the however many hours to LA where Roman was to pick me up at. The flight seemed to go by faster than I had anticipated it to be, but I couldn't be happier when we had landed and I was able to get off that dang thing though. I should get used to flying because I may be doing this a whole lot more now than I had in the past but it will take flight after flight in order for the adjustment and getting used to it. I texted Roman when I got off the plane that I was heading to the baggage claim after using the bathroom real quick. I walked along the tunnel leading to baggage claim looking over the crowd of people that was either standing still or shuffling about to find the rest of their party or whatever it may be, I was trying to find the one person that stood out to me and it was easier for me to find him since he does sort of standout compared to others.
"Roman!" I yelled getting his attention as he looked over from where he was looking to the right seeing his mouth form up into a smile and his face lit up, I'm sure mine was the same as I began to walk faster to a speed walk or jog of sorts as I was cutting through people as he walked towards me as well, we met closer to where he was and I jumped into his embrace for a hug. I felt his arms wrapped around my waist as he had picked my feet up from the ground, my arms wrapped around his neck and dug my nails into his back. "Put me down…" I whispered as I saw him smiled and I looked down into his dark eyes digging my nails into his skin more the more scared I got of him holding me up off the ground.
"Not until I get my kiss." He said as he smirked and I immediately gave him a kiss, I was relieved as I felt my feet touching the ground again. "I think I'm going to have scars from those nails of yours." Roman said as I felt him push his fingers through my hair now that I was looking up at him from my standing position.
"Maybe you'll learn not to pick me up." I said as I smiled back up at him as he leant down capturing my lips in another kiss.
"Why don't you like me picking you up?" Roman asked as he stepped beside me sliding his hand into mine as we began to slowly walk towards the multiple baggage claims that the airport had.
"I'm afraid I'll break your back…or something…I'm nowhere near light….I'm no sack of potatoes." I said chuckling.
"You can never break my back, and the only way I would want that to happen won't be from picking you up…do you know how much I bench anyway? Or hell, I've picked up Big Show and the other guys to do those power slams with Seth and Dean."
"Yeah, with Seth and Dean being the keyword in that sentence."
"That part of the sentence yeah, but do you want to know how much I bench?"
"Probably less than I weigh." I said as he stepped in front of me as we came to a sudden stop as he grasped my other hand as he looked down at me.
"I doubt that…"
"You want to make a bet about that?"
"I will, we'll go to the gym tomorrow and I'll show you how much I bench…why do you not like me picking you up or what not?"
"Because I'm going to hurt you, same reason why I would never sit on your lap." I said as I bit at my bottom lip as I just looked at the part of the fabric of his shirt that was I softly playing with my finger.
"Well that right there is a contradiction because you have already sat on my lap."
"When?" I asked shocked as I looked up at him seeing him smile and let out a chuckle before he leant forward.
"That one time we had sex, you kind of…" He began to whisper.
"That doesn't count." I interrupted him as he smirked.
"It does count sweetie." Roman said as he smirked and felt his hands grip my waist after I felt him brush strands of hair from my face.
"I meant when we sit down in a chair then." I said.
"That's better." Roman said as the siren went off to get our attention as I stepped forward as my hand grasped onto Roman's as we walked a little closer to the claim until I found my bag pulling it off the go around and set it down on the ground. "I got it." Roman said as he grabbed the bar to roll it for me.
"Thanks baby….Courtneh said she'll mail out rest of my stuff when we get back to Florida and I got one more bag…" I said as Roman smiled when I mentioned that Courtneh sending rest of my stuff out.
"Okay baby…" Roman said as he nodded when we waited for my garment bag as I grabbed it when it came. Roman's hand slid into my hand interlacing his fingers with mine as we began to walk out to the car he had drove here with.
"That sounds good…this is a busy week and I hope you are ready for it." Roman said.
"I…I hope so…" I said nodding and nerves began again.
"You will be fine…nothing today, tomorrow I've already been told that the girls are kidnapping you to have a shopping and spa day and that I won't see you again until we meet in the lobby to head to the red carpet event."
"Why or how did the girls tell you and not me? What event is that?" I asked curiously.
"Well, I don't know if you know but Naomi is engaged to Jimmy, which is my cousin so we are somewhat close. I was in catering with Jimmy catching up and she came in asking if you were coming this week and that she wanted you to join them if you were. As for the event, it is a charity event, and then there is one Saturday as well which is the SummerSlam pre-show party." Roman said.
"So two different parties, you guys certainly love to party."
"I'm not much of a partier but I got to show my face, I would rather be with you."
"Well I'll be there so you got your wish." I said smiling as he smiled as well as he opened the trunk as he put his suitcase in the trunk as I laid my garment bag over the bag before he walked with me on my side of the car opening the door for me as I slid into the car and he shut the door before he walked around to the other side of the car climbing into the car before he drove to the hotel that we were to stay in. "What else is planned besides the red carpets and stuff?" I asked.
"Obviously the gym so I can show you how much I bench, I was thinking the beach and I got a media day with the boys where we got to hit radio shows and television news shows. Saturday we got Axxess signings to do. There are things that I need to be at and on time where as rest of the time is free and able to do whatever I want." Roman said as he grabbed my hand rubbing his thumb over the back of my hand.
"So, I should have packed some DVDs to watch…" I said as I let out a sigh.
"Not necessarily cause I would love for you to these radio and television shows, as for Axxess, you are still welcome to come if you want to come hang out." Roman said as I nodded.
"I would like to come…but would I be allowed to? What about the red carpets?" I asked.
"I had already reserved to the red carpets saying I had a plus one so they know you are going to be there so no backing out of that baby girl. And you are allowed to go with me, you just can't be captured on the microphone or on camera." Roman said.
"What about the red carpet then? If I'm not allowed on camera what is to happen there since there are going to be tons of photographers?" I asked as he shrugged.
"You are going to walk it regardless cause I need and want my girl on my arm." Roman said as I smirked and blushed as he smiled as I looked out the window.
"I've never been to California…it is so different…" I said.
"It is pretty and different than any other state, each state is different than the other." Roman said as I nodded.
"I would assume so, I don't see Montana having a beach…" I said sarcastically as Roman glanced over at me with this evil look.
"You can shut up at any time." Roman said.
"No…" I said as I smirked.
"But I'm just saying, you always wanted to come to California so I am going to try my best to take you around so you can get a feel for what it's like to be in California." Roman said as he reached over patting my upper thigh lightly.
"That would be nice, what is there to see or do?" I asked curiously.
"Why don't we go to the beach? I got to tan." Roman said as I burst into laughter, "What's so funny?"
"You tan? Be serious." I said.
"Maybe I don't tan like you do but still….we will hit the beach then we'll go over to Downtown Disney when we go to Anaheim, we'll go to the CityWalk, and anything you want to do baby."
"I don't know what there is to do in California." I said shrugging.
"Well, it'll be a surprise now wouldn't it?" Roman asked smirking.
"Yes it will then." I said as he pulled into a parking garage as I only got a glimpse of the hotel, "That is a nice ass hotel." I said as I could tell that just by the tiny glimpse I had got of the hotel.
"It is a nice hotel, this is the only other time that WWE goes all out on us…SummerSlam and Mania are the only two times they fork out the extra dough to really make sure we got the nicer things."
"It is the second biggest Pay-Per-View…well, I think the Rumble should be bigger than SummerSlam but that is my own opinion." I said shrugging as he chuckled.
"I agree baby." Roman said as he pulled the rental into a parking spot before he shut the car off, "You hungry? We can go up to our room and order room service…"
"What about Dean and Seth?" I asked climbing out of the car, as well as Roman.
"They haven't came in yet."
"What do you mean? Don't they have the red carpet tomorrow too?"
"Yeah, they come in tomorrow morning." Roman said as I smiled knowing we had the night together in the hotel.
"Okay." I said nodding as he pulled the trunk open, I pulled out the suitcase as he grabbed my garment bag.
"Do I get to see what dresses you brought with you?" Roman asked.
"No…not until the red carpet events." I said smirking as I looked up at him as his hand rested on my hip feeling him grip tightly as he pulled me closer to him.
"I can't wait baby." He said in a low voice as he leant down capturing my lips in a soft kiss. "I was thinking, even though you brought two dresses I presume since I told you that you needed that many, why don't I give you some money and while you are out with the girls you pick up a new one?" Roman asked.
"No thank you Roman, I don't need new dresses…"
"Well, don't tell me no…I already told the girls that you guys can't return back until you get one."
"But they don't control me and let's see who wins this." I said smiling.
"It's going to be me."
"Nope." I said shaking my head no smiling as I captured his lips in another kiss as I slammed the trunk shut as he rolled his eyes. He reached for my hand intertwining his fingers with mine as he led me the right way to get into the hotel and he led me to the room we would be occupying tonight. Roman hung up my garment bag as I rolled my bag over to set next to his as I sat on the edge of the bed as Roman walked past me and grabbed something off the table before he sat down next to me.
"You want food? Of course you do….hmm…" Roman said.
"Grilled cheese!" I said as my eyes immediately landed on that on the menu.
"Don't get too excited." Roman said as he let out a chuckle feeling myself blush a little.
"Sorry, I love grilled cheese." I said as he smirked, he leant in giving my forehead a kiss.
"Two grilled cheeses it is." Roman said as he stood up going to the phone placing the order for us as he turned to look at me. "It'll be about forty-five minutes, plenty of time for you to tell me why you don't like people picking you up. Does that also apply to sitting on peoples lap?" Roman asked as I nodded. "Why? This is blowing my mind."
"Cause I weigh a lot, I can hurt you…like your back, break your legs…there is so much damage I can do…" I said in seriousness as he burst into laughter, "It's not funny….I'm being serious." I said as I swatted him.
"No…no…in all seriousness…" He said between laughs, "You can't break my back or my legs or anything baby…that can never happen."
"Yes it can! It was on CSI! This girl was so fat she suffocated her sexual partner by laying on top of him."
"Now Meg, did you suffocate me when you topped me?"
"But I wasn't completely laying on you and I made sure that my full weight was on you for as little amount of time." I said truthfully.
"Oh really? You think I can't handle it?"
"No you can't. I weigh more than you think Roman, I'm no Kelly Kelly." I said as he chuckled.
"I don't like girls that are like Kelly Kelly, I want girls like you…fuck, just you."
"You have me but doesn't mean these thoughts of hurting you will change." I said.
"Come on." He said as he stood up and grabbed my hand tugging for me to stand up.
"Where are we going? I want to lie down, cuddle and eat my grilled cheese."
"Well, your grilled cheese isn't going anywhere nor is your cuddle master." Roman said as I let out a groan as I stood up letting him lead me out of the room and wherever he wanted to take me as I didn't want to argue.
"Why are we in the gym?" I asked confused looking around at the empty facility as he smirked as he led me to the weight area of the gym to a bench. "What are you doing?" I asked as I ran my hand along the cold metal bar at the end of the bench.
"I'm going to prove to you that you will not hurt me regardless of how much you weigh." Roman said as I looked at him confused.
"How is you lifting weights going to prove that to me?" I asked confused.
"Because you'll see that you won't hurt me." Roman said as he went to grab free weights that were weighing up to three hundred pounds putting them on the weight bar as he picked it up like it was no big deal as he carried it with him to where he sat down laying the weight bar across his lap as he would lift his legs by raising his feet to just being his tip toes and I counted him doing a set of fifteen of those before he picked it off his legs. I was slightly impressed and didn't know what else to expect because it's not like he could pile the whole three hundred pound weights onto one leg.
"Okay, that proves that you can hold up and lift up to three hundred pounds with both legs, what about one leg? Because what are the odds I'll be sitting on both your legs?"
"Both legs or one leg, you know that my legs could handle it regardless so stop asking those logical answers woman." Roman said as he smiled as he walked the weight bar to the top of the bench setting where it belonged before he walked back around straddling the bench and laid back on the bench where his head rested under the pole.
"Do you need a spotter? Even though I know I can't lift this much so if you do need help, we are both screwed." I said feeling helpless.
"Nope, don't need any help once so ever." Roman said smirking as I watched him grip the weight bar and he lifted it off the resting place and began to bench pressing the weights without breaking a sweat or losing his breath. He did just as many sets as he did legs before putting it back on the resting position and sat up as he turned to look at me. "Did I prove my point?" He asked smiling his bright smile before he grabbed my hand pulling me to stand in front of him.
"Maybe just a little." I said blushing as I couldn't even meet his eyes as he wrapped his arms around my waist.
"Good, come on baby…" Roman said as he stood up leading me back up to our room and by the time we got back our food was set in our room for us, we grabbed our plates and drinks as we took them to the bed with us where I cuddled to the side of Roman as I leant in eating my dinner as he did with his one arm wrapped around me as we watched the Good Fellas movie on the television, it wasn't my choice nor favorite but I didn't want to complain. I got up taking my plate to the table before I grabbed my pajamas, I headed into the bathroom changing into them before I headed back out to the main room where Roman smiled when he saw me in my pajamas. "Cuddle time with my baby…best part of the night." Roman said as I smirked as I climbed into the bed scooting closer to him as I felt him wrap his arms around me. "So, do you feel comfortable sitting on my lap now seeing my demonstration earlier?" He asked as he pushed his fingers through my hair.
"A little bit but I still feel uncomfortable." I said truthfully as he smirked.
"Why don't you climb on up on my lap?" He asked as I rubbed my hand along his chest as nervously as I felt him kiss at my head. "You won't hurt me." He mumbled into my head as I nodded as I let out a sigh as I sat up and looked down at him.
"Promise me that if I do begin to hurt you that you will tell me." I said as he nodded as I let out a sigh as I straddled his lap, at first I didn't put any weight on his legs or body as I felt his hands grip at my hips.
"You aren't sitting on my lap yet baby." Roman said as I slowly sat back on my feet that were bent back at the knees and onto his legs watching his facial reactions exposing any pain and didn't see any as his hands rubbed at my sides, "See, you aren't hurting me baby…" Roman said as I smiled.
"You were right this once." I said as I rolled off him as he chuckled as he rolled to his side wrapping his arms around me pulling me close to him.
"You know, I actually loved seeing you on top of me again…" Roman said as he pushed his fingers through my hair as I smirked.
"Oh really?" I asked as I smiled up at him and he chuckled.
"Yep…I love you baby…I got to get you to bed, somebody has a big shopping trip and spa day ahead of them." Roman said.
"What are you going to do while I'm with the girls?"
"You don't worry about that cause I got a few things up my sleeve as to what I need to do." Roman said.
"Man things, I get it." I said smiling and chuckling as he smirked.
"Yep, man things…night baby and I love you." Roman said as he leant down giving me a kiss as I smiled into his kiss as I looked into his dark eyes.
"I love you too, good night." I said as I cuddled closer to him as I rested my head against the curve of his neck as I closed my eyes cuddling closer to him feeling his arms tighten around me holding me close to his solid frame.
