Hello my beautiful people! I hope you had an awesome week AND weekend. To Michelle...despite Drew's loss last Saturday, which in my opinion is complete bullshit and the crummy weather, I hope you had an amazing time at WrestleMania like I did! And to Akiko-Tanaka...it's always a pleasure going back and forth with you on Tumblr! ;*
Anyways, here is chapter 30! I can't believe I'm already this far into my story and there is no ending in sight...no lie, lol! If Drew and Anna want me to continue to write...then writing I shall do! I don't own anyone affiliated with the WWE...depressingly that also means Drew. I only own Anna and Jules.
Enjoy!
"So, what has Ste shown you and who has he introduced you to?" Anna asks, looking at Jules, who is still attached to her arm.
"Honestly, not much. I landed about 2 hours ago and all he showed me was his locker room and well…catering," Jules replies with a laugh.
"Well I know one of the first people you can meet," Anna says and pulls out her phone from her back pocket and texts Natalya.
A: Hey, my favorite crazy chick. Where are you? I have someone I want to introduce you to.
Anna presses send and Natalya responds almost immediately.
N: I don't know who you're calling crazy, my dear. But I'd love to meet this person. I'm just leaving the trainers room. Where are you?
A: Stay put. We'll come to you. We're right around the corner from you.
"Alright, let's go. You're going to meet one of the first people I met, since joining the company. Besides Drew, Ste and you, she's one of the few people who mean the world to me and I don't know what I'd do without her," Anna tells Jules and they make their way to the training room.
"Oh, love. You're going to make me cry. I feel the same way; especially after getting to know you this past month. Outside of your mom and Drew, I know I was one of the only people you had contact with while you were out," Jules says, hugging Anna as they approach Natalya.
"Well with Drew comes Ste and with Ste comes you. You two are a package deal. Kind of like Nat and Tyson. Right, Nattie?" Anna says and looks at Natalya.
"What am I agreeing to, now?" Nattie asks with a raised eyebrow. "I'm Natalya. It's nice to meet you," she says to Jules, shaking her hand.
"Juliana. But you can call me Jules. It's a pleasure to meet you," she replies.
"You're Irish?" Nattie asks with shock and Jules laughs.
"Yes, I am. I'm here with Ste."
"And that's what I was talking about. Everyone who is important to me. Like how Ste comes with Drew. Jules comes with Ste, so she automatically becomes family to me. And with you comes Ty. I don't know what I'd do without any of you. Outside of my intermediate family, you guys ARE my family," Anna explains to Nattie.
"Oh baby girl, right back at you," Nattie replies, pulling Anna into a viselike grip hug. "So how did you and Ste meet?" Nattie asks Jules when she and Anna separate.
"He didn't tell? We met at a club in San Antonio. He was with Anna and Drew. Apparently they dragged him to go out and well…we met and here we are," Jules explains with a shrug and a smile.
Nattie's eyes widen in recognition. "Right! You were the girl he was talking about the following week. Girl let me tell you…he could not shut up about you. He is definitely smitten and I can see why," she replies and Jules blushes at Nattie's comment.
"That's very kind of you to say and he couldn't?" She asks, her eyes lighting up at the new piece of information.
"He was just as bad about you as I was about Drew. I thought Nat was gonna drop my ass a couple of times because I couldn't shut up about Drew after I met him," Anna inputs with a laugh and covers her mouth after she snorts, remembering the look on Nattie's face.
Jules throws a comical look in Anna's direction and Nattie curls over with a deep belly laugh, "oh my god, that was great. But it is true; I was about ready to drop kick her ass," she says and wraps an arm around Anna's neck and pulls her into a side hug, "I love you, baby girl," Nat says, pressing a kiss to Anna's cheek.
Anna laughs, wrapping her arms around Nattie's waist, "I love you, too, Nat," she replies, resting her head on Natalya's shoulder. "I don't want to hold you because I know you're busy and have to prepare for your match against Liv, but do you by chance know where Kevin is? I want to introduce Jules to him," Anna says and Nattie looks at her with worried concern in her eyes.
"Are you sure that's a good idea, Annie? You do know Drew is not a fan of Kev," Nattie says and Anna smiles big, which confuses her even more.
"Drew told me that he and Kev hashed it out and that they are good now. Drew won't try to rip his head off, when Kevin and I interact," Anna replies, placing quotes around 'try to rip his head off'.
"You're kidding me?" Nattie replies, actually finding it hard to believe that Drew is okay with Kevin now. She knows how territorial Drew can be over Anna. Of course, he doesn't own her, but he likes to let anyone who shows an interest in her, know that she is taken and off limits.
"Nope!" Anna replies happily. "I know he wouldn't tell me that if he didn't mean it."
"Well then. Drew surprises me more and more everyday. I mean I know you've had an impact on him and how he acts without even trying, but this I wasn't expecting. When it comes to you and any other living, breathing, hot-blooded male, Drew turns feral where you're concerned. That's been proven already," Nattie says.
"We've also talked about that as well and I'll tell you that I didn't go easy on him. I mellowed his ass out when it comes to being possessive over me. I mean, I love him for it and I appreciate that he values me to that extent, but it's just way too much," Anna replies.
"In that case, the last I'm positive he is, is in the ring. But don't take my word for it," Nattie tells her friend.
"Alright, thanks Nat. I'll see you later, okay? If I don't see you before your match, good luck. Although, I know you won't need it," Anna say and gives Nattie a hug before she and Jules make their way towards the ring.
"Thanks, baby girl!" Nattie yells to Anna who turns around to face her with a smile.
"Do I wanna know what that was all about with Drew being possessive and him and Kevin?" Jules asks, hesitantly.
Anna shakes her head no, "trust me…you don't. It's not pretty. I don't know how much Ste told you, but it's the whole reason why I was out for a month," she explains, leaving it at that and Jules nods her head, knowing not to push the subject any further.
Like Nattie said, Anna and Jules found Kevin in the ring, sparring with Apollo Cruz. Before Anna can even say a word, Kevin spots her walking down the ramp with Jules following behind.
"Anna! What a pleasant surprise. What are you doing here? I thought you'd be with Drew," Kevin says and moves his eyes from Anna to Jules, "who is this?"
Anna smiles up at Kevin, "she's the reason we are here. I was showing her around and introducing her to some of you guys and I wanted her to meet you. Jules, this is Kevin…Kevin, Jules," Anna says, introducing the two.
Kevin hops off of the apron, wiping the sweat off his face before hanging the towel around his neck, "it's very nice to meet you," Kevin says, holding his hand out to Jules and shakes it when she accepts it.
"It's so nice to meet you, as well," Jules replies and Apollo makes himself known, still standing inside the ring, but rests his weight against the top rope.
"Hey Kev, so are you going to introduce me to these two beautiful ladies or am I going to have to do it myself?" Apollo asks, earning a laugh from both Anna and Jules.
"Oh yeah, my bad. Apollo, this is Anna, Drew's girlfriend and her friend, Jules…who is?" Kevin asks, realizing he doesn't know exactly who she is.
"I'm with Sheamus. We met a month ago. I flew in to surprise him and getting to see Anna was an added bonus," Jules answers with a smile.
"Well it's a pleasure to meet you lovely ladies. But Kev, I'm going to take off. I've got some things I need to do before Raw tonight," Apollo tells his friend. "It was very nice to meet you ladies. I'm sure I'll see you around."
"It was nice to meet you, too," Anna replies for herself and Jules.
Kevin puts his attention back onto Anna as soon as Apollo leaves the arena, "so, I'm assuming Drew told you that we are cool now? Otherwise, I know you wouldn't be here," he says with a shy chuckle.
"He did," Anna replies with a smile, "we'll be able to talk and be in the same room without him wanting to rip your head off. He already knows how pissed I'll be if he tries to pull any stupid shit. I sat him down myself and I did not go lightly on him. Drew knows to be on his best behavior and that I won't let him get away with that shit anymore," Anna explains to Kevin.
"Well I'm glad," Kevin says, then adds, "that I don't have to fear for my life anymore when I'm around you," he laughs.
"You and me both," Anna replies with a laugh of her own and then catches a glimpse of the time on her smart watch, "oh shit, I hate to cut this short, Kev, but we've got to get back. I'm suppose to meet Drew in less than 15 minutes so I can work on his knee and bicep before Raw starts tonight. He has another match against Dolph," Anna says, making a disgusted face that pulls a laugh from Jules and Kevin, "I want to make sure that he's ready. I also can't wait to see the look on Dolph's face when he sees us back together. Unless he listens to those around him who talk, he has no idea that I'm back or that we are back together now.
"It was good seeing you after such a while, Kevin. You already know, if you need anything, don't hesitate to come see me," Anna says.
"It was good seeing you, too, Anna. And it was nice to meet you, Jules. I'm sure we'll see each other again. You ladies have a great evening," Kevin replies and the girls depart, heading to Anna's massage room.
When she and Jules walk into the room, they find Drew and Ste already there, relaxing on the couch. "Well don't you two look cozy," Anna comments with an amused smile as her eyes flicker back and forth between the two best friends.
Drew sits up a little and flashes Anna his sexy smirk that she loves so much, "it'll be more cozy, if you come join me," he says and Anna smirks at his suggestive comment, whereas Jules gasps in shock and embarrassment at the tone of Drew's comment. Ste just shakes his head at his friends blunt forwardness.
"You know what, I think I will," Anna says and walks over to Drew to stand in between his legs before she places both hands on either side of his head, leaning onto the back of the couch. Drew's eyes widen fractionally as Anna's hovers over him and slowly inches her face closer to his. Anna lets her lips graze Drew's before she plops down in the open spot next to him, cuddling into his side.
The look on Drew's face has Jules covering her mouth as she tries to hold in a laugh that refuses to cooperate. Ste on the other hand, his face has turned a bright shade of red from how hard he was laughing. "Mate, she got ye good," he wheezes out.
Drew looks over at his friend and then down at Anna, who looks up at him with innocent eyes, "you did tell me to come join you; so I did," she says to him and presses a kiss to the underside of his jaw. Drew still holds a dumbfounded look on his face as he continues to stare down at Anna, "love you, baby," she tells him, but her eyes are still filled with mirth as she puckers up her lips for a kiss.
Narrowing his eyes at Anna, Drew presses his lips to hers, "you'll be paying for that later," he grounds out.
"I'll be looking forward to it," Anna replies with a grin, "but first, you need to focus on Dolph tonight," she tells Drew, sitting up a little to look at him properly before continuing, "and I cannot wait to fuck with him," she grins.
Standing up, Anna holds her hands out to Drew, to get him to stand up. "Alright, shirt off," she tells Drew, once he gets to his feet and Anna addresses the Irish couple, "you guys are more than welcome to stay; I'm just going to work on his knee, bicep and shoulders," she tells them.
Ste stands up, walks to Jules and puts a hand to her lower back, "thanks for the offer love, but I think we're gonna pass. I don't wanna know what's going to happen, during yer little…session," he replies and he and Jules walk to the door, opening it.
"That's just rude, Stephen," Anna laughs, "but touché because it is true. Lock the door behind you, please," she says and flashes Ste a smile when he looks at her like she's crazy.
"Yer something special, love, but ye got it," Ste laughs with the shake of his head.
"See you later, girl," Jules waves to Anna with a smile and a wink as she and Ste make their way out, being sure to lock the door behind them.
The second the door clicks closed behind them, Anna looks over at Drew with a heated stare. She takes long strides in the short distance it takes to get to him and crashes her lips to his. Anna shoves her tongue in Drew's mouth as she cups the back of his head with both hands, deepening the kiss.
When they break apart for needed air, Anna rests her forehead on Drew's as she tries to catch her breath, "I've been wanting to do that all day," she breathes and pulls back a little, wrapping her arms around Drew's neck, looking at him with a smile.
"You and me both, love," Drew replies, smiling back and tucks a stray hair that fell into Anna's face. He presses another kiss to Anna's lips before releasing his hold on her and sits on top of the table, removing his shirt.
Anna stares at him with lust in her eyes and Drew catches her, sending a grin her way. "I swear, I don't think I'll ever get use to seeing you shirtless," she groans, but rips her eyes from Drew's hair matted chest and gets the oil ready.
Drew chuckles and watches Anna make the oil mixture she always does for him and rolls the left leg of his shorts up a little bit and positions himself so he can have his knee ready for her. "I'm glad I can have that effect on you. It makes me feel, I don't know…powerful," he shrugs.
"Oh you're powerful, alright," Anna replies, walking over to Drew's left side and pumps some of the oil into her hand and starts to work the muscles in Drew's knee and lower thigh, "in more ways than one. But you know that already," she finishes, looking up at Drew with the lift of a brow that Drew can't help but smirk at.
"I most certainly do," Drew continues to smirk as Anna continues to work on his knee.
Anna shakes her head at Drew with a laugh and turns her attention to his left bicep, "so, how do you think Dolph is going to react when he sees me walk out to the ring with you, later?" Anna asks as she gently presses both of her thumbs into either side of his bicep and works her way up his arm and into Drew's shoulder.
Drew laughs loudly at just thought of what he can see cross on Dolph's face, "I have no doubt he'll lose his shit and look like he's seen a ghost. He's not around a lot, so he still has absolutely no idea that we are back together…and stronger than ever," he replies, looking intensely at Anna. She is so focused on her task of Drew's bicep, she doesn't realize the stare he is giving her, that is, until she lifts her eyes to his and her breath catches in her throat.
The passion she finds in his blue orbs, has her heart racing at an inhuman pace. Anna abandons Drew's bicep and grabs his hand, placing it over her heart. Drew's eyes widen and he shifts them up to hers at the strength of her heartbeat. "That is what you do to me with just your stare. That's how much you affect me, Drew," she tells him and Drew removes his hand from her chest and cups her face, pulling her in for a loving kiss.
"I knew I had some sort of strong affect on you, I just didn't think it was that intense," Drew whispers, resting his forehead on Anna's, soaking up the moment they've put themselves in.
"It's been like that since the day we met, babe. It only grows stronger everyday…so does my love for you," Anna declares to Drew.
The Scotsman looks down at her with complete disbelief shining in his eyes, but nonetheless, Drew pulls Anna in for another kiss; this time it's filled with nothing but the unadulterated love he holds for her.
"You know I feel the same way, too, right baby?" Drew says to her and Anna nods her head. She stands back a little and carefully pulls Drew's legs off of the table, so they are hanging, allowing her to stand in between his legs.
"Of course I do, Drew. How could you even ask that?" Anna replies, wrapping her hands around the back of his neck and rubs the skin there. She looks into Drew's eyes and sees sadness lurking in them as he stares back at her. "Talk to me, Drew. What's wrong? I can see it in your eyes," Anna tells him quietly and lightly massages his neck and shoulder muscles to loosen him up.
Drew sighs deeply through his nose, looking down at his lap before looking back up at Anna, who waits patiently for his answer, "it's just, I have doubt sometimes…about myself…if I'm doing enough to make you happy," he starts and Anna interferes.
"Absolutely, you make me happy…more than anything. I've been on this plant for 29 years and I haven't been as happy in those 29 years than I have been in the past 4 months. It's been the best 4 months of my life, Drew," she tells him and frames his faces with both hands, so he has no choice but to look at her.
"It has been for me, too," Drew starts and once again, Anna interrupts him.
"So then, what is the problem, baby? Please tell me, because I have no idea. Is it…do I not make you happy?" Anna asks him, trying to hide the vulnerability in her tone.
"Of course you do, Anna; you make me happier than anything, it's just most of the time, I don't feel like I'm good enough for you," Drew confesses, dropping a huge bomb on Anna.
Anna looks at him with disbelief of her own at his train of thought. "What in the hell makes you think you're not good enough for me? Pray god, please tell me, because I'd really like to know," she rants and Drew watches her, wiping the tears from her eyes that want to spill over.
"October for one. What man treats the woman he loves, to the point where she feels like the only way to take away her pain is by ending her life. A life that is so precious and deserves everything good in life and you don't deserve me; you deserve someone better," Drew says and Anna slaps him across the face.
"You shut up, Drew. You shut up, right now. I don't want someone better; there is no one better. You are it for me, Drew and nothing you can say or do will change my mind. I deserve you and you most certainly deserve me, so you better stop the nonsense bullshit that is coming out of your mouth, do you hear me?" Anna reprimands Drew, cupping the cheek she just slapped and rubs her thumb across it gently.
Drew raises his eyes back to Anna's and sees in her eyes that she meant every word she just said. That she loves him with every ounce of her being and that she wants no one else. And neither does he. Since the moment he laid eyes on her, Drew wanted no one else, ever again. Even if it also meant he could never have her. He places his hand over Anna's that still lay on his cheek and grabs it, bring it to his lips. Never once does Drew remove his eyes from Anna's.
"I'm sorry I hit you; you didn't deserve that. But how you just spoke about yourself upset me. You know I don't like it when you talk about yourself like that," Anna apologizes and places a kiss to the cheek she slapped.
Drew gives Anna a small smile, "it's alright, love. I did deserve it for what I said. I know we belong together, but I don't know what made me have those thoughts just now, because I know that I'm enough for you and you are beyond more than enough for me," Drew tells Anna. He cups her face, bringing it to his own and presses a soft kiss to Anna's lips, letting them linger for several seconds before slowly pulling away and rests his forehead on hers.
"I love you, so much, baby and absolutely nothing is going to change that," Anna whispers to Drew, framing his face with both of her tiny hands and pulls away slightly so she can look into his eyes, "now, let me finish what I started. Raw starts soon and you need to be ready for your match," Anna smiles at Drew and it pulls a smile of his own.
"Yes ma'am," Drew's smile turns into a grin, "now, I'm that much more entitled to beat that little punks ass, especially knowing you'll be by my side for it."
"You're damn right I will be," Anna returns his grin, "and stay put, I can work on your neck and shoulders like this, but I will have you lie face down so I can get your back and the rest of your shoulders," she says and begins to continue her massage on Drew.
Drew watches Anna's face as she puts all of her focus on his shoulders and does as Anna asks when she orders him to move a certain way. "You're cute when you're so focused on something," Drew comments and smiles when Anna bites her lip and subtly shakes her head.
"Would you rather I be distracted and accidentally hurt you? I don't think I would be so cute then," Anna replies, moving her eyes up a fraction to look into Drew's and they hold mirth at her rebuttal. She moves her hands down to his abdomen and the mirth that was there, is gone in an instant. "Lie down on your back, baby," Anna whispers to him and Drew is on his back in seconds.
Moments later, Anna rests a knee on the table beside Drew's hip and hoists herself up to straddle him. Drew's hands grab Anna's hips and looks up at her. "I see that look in your eyes, don't get any ideas, big boy," she scolds him playfully. Anna pumps a little bit of oil into her hands and rubs them together before she places them onto Drew's abdomen and slowly starts to rub the substance in.
Drew's eyes close and a small happy grumble is released from him. Anna smiles and lets out a quiet chuckle at how content Drew is at the moment. "I've hardly done anything, baby," Anna says softly as she continues to massage his tan skin.
"Your hands always feel good, love," Drew mumbles and Anna leans down to press a kiss to his sternum, her hands replacing her lips. She scoots up a little bit so she can straddle his stomach and kept up on his pecs and the muscles that led into his shoulders.
This went on for a couple of minutes until she raised herself to her knees, "flip over on your stomach," she instructs Drew. When he is comfortable, Anna sits down on his ass and starts to knead the muscles in his lower back. Another small groan can be heard and Anna once again smiles at how happy he is. It still amazes her how such a large man can become putty in her hands with just the smallest of actions.
He'd never admit it to her, but he loves it. He loves how she affects him so easily and that he'd do anything for her. She asks him and he'll do it. Just a look from her can bring him to his knees. He doesn't care if Ste or Keith tease him about it, he'll take the friendly and harmless jabs everyday if it means he can continue to make Anna happy. No matter what it is. He'll never tell her that though, although he has a small feeling that she already knows.
Anna scoots herself to Drew's lower back and like she did to his front, Anna places small butterfly kisses across Drew's back. The action causes Drew to shiver in pleasure; goosebumps making themselves known. Anna smiles at his body's reaction to the small affection she gave him. She leans down once more and whispers, "I love you, baby," pressing a kiss to his shoulder.
Drew turns his head a little bit, mumbling, "love you, too, baby girl," and then buries his face back into his arms so Anna can resume the work she does with her amazing hands.
After about 15 minutes, Anna gets off of Drew and instructs him to sit up. She makes her way behind him and finishes up at the back of his neck and up to the base of his skull. Pressing a kiss in between Drew's shoulder blades, Anna rests her hands on his sides, "alright, babe. I'm done," she tells him.
She walks around the table so she stands in front of him and Drew looks down at her with heavy, but sated eyes, "I swear I think I actually fell asleep at some point," he confesses, running a hand over his face.
Anna looks up at him with happy amusement in the fact that she has that special touch, but then again, she doesn't nearly do anything as close or as long for someone else as she does for Drew. He is her man, after all and she is going to always spoil and treat him with the best massages he's ever gotten, until the day she no longer can.
"Then that means I'm doing my job correctly," Anna smirks up at Drew. She steps in between his legs again and reaches up, applying a gentle pressure to under his eyes with her thumbs, dragging them outwards towards his temple. Anna lightly rubs her thumbs over Drew's temples, relishing in the feeling she gets when he closes his eyes again, enjoying the feeling until he opens his eyes once more and looks down at her.
Drew takes Anna's face in his large hands and presses a kiss to her lips, letting them linger there for a few seconds before slowly pulling away, "thank you," he tells her softly and Anna smiles up at him.
"No need to thank me, baby. I love doing this for you. I love making you feel good and besides, it's gives me a legit excuse to put my hands on you," Anna replies, smirking up at Drew when he narrows his eyes playfully at her.
"Only when we're at work. You and I both know, you don't need or have an excuse for touching me when we're alone," Drew replies, getting to his feet and pulls Anna flush against him.
"But we are alone," Anna says, placing her hands flat on Drew's chest, looking up at him with wide, innocent eyes.
"That is not what I meant and you know it, little lady. Now quit teasing me; I don't need to be sexually frustrated during my match. I'll never hear the end of it, if I lose to that ass hat," Drew growls, gripping Anna's hips to prevent her from rubbing up against him.
"Sorry, baby," Anna smiles apologetically up at Drew, then presses a kiss to his sternum, "and you won't lose to that clown, once he sees me, he's going to be distracted OR he'll be so annoyed that he'll make mistakes that you can capitalize on. You have this match already won, babe. It's going to be fun, fucking with him that he'll do nothing but make mistakes," Anna says, her smile turning into a grin that Drew can't help but return, because he knows she's right.
"What would I do without you?" Drew asks, hypothetically.
"You wouldn't be as badass or confident in the ring as you have been since meeting me," Anna replies, jokingly, "but you'll never have to find out," she says and steps on her toes to press a kiss to his lips, "now go get changed into your ring gear; Raw starts soon. I'll meet you outside of gorilla once I'm finished with anyone else who might pop in."
Drew nods his head and presses another breathtaking kiss to Anna, before releasing her, "I'll see you in a little bit, then," he says and at the last second, reaches around and takes Anna's ass in both of his hands, giving it a squeeze. "That was for teasing me earlier and promise for later," he winks at Anna's shocked face.
