Chapter Fourteen – Law and Order
HayMac's apartment, Manhattan, New York City, NY
Hayworth looked up at the bedroom ceiling with MacKenzie under his right arm sleeping there like an angel. He thought about the call that would be coming through from his father now that Stephanie McMahon had sent the lawsuit papers to the Sandbox. The papers said that Hunter would have to rescind the transfer of WWE assets to Seth Rollins or be sued for unlawful occupation of the former McMahon compound and WWE. Stephanie was convinced that Hunter would go to court, where she would win. Mac was not so sure but he liked Stephanie's confidence. He sure missed his Mom though; Hayworth hadn't spoken to Joanie since they left Aruba last week. Though she would always stand by Hunter's side, Hayworth knew that this had to be killing her. He was her firstborn son and she wanted him to have a relationship with his father. That was the furthest thing from Hayworth's mind right now, all he wanted was revenge.
As he turned and kissed his wife's silky black legs, his attention quickly turned to more amorous things. Then his cell-phone rang and the colour of the morning completely changed in tone.
Downstairs, Stephanie was outside the HayMac apartment on her cell-phone. She was on the phone with the Damsels of Destruction, the press release about the lawsuit was about to go out and soon the press would be asking Hayworth for an interview.
When Stephanie went upstairs, she walked into an argument between Hayworth and MacKenzie.
"How could you do that, how could you put me to sleep so you could sneak out and go see DX behind my back?!" Hayworth asked Mac who was pulling her dressing gown on while Hayworth continued to berate her in his underwear.
"I didn't want you to do anything stupid, it was only fair to warn DX how far you were willing to go. You're still a DX kid, they had a right to know what was going on," Mac said.
"You went behind my back, I can't trust you MacKenzie," Hayworth said disappointed turning his head away from her hiding the hurt in his soft brown eyes under his strawberry blond bangs.
"You can trust me Hayworth, you can trust me to do what's right. I doubt you can expect the same thing from Stephanie McMahon, your father's ex-wife is only out for herself," Mac said and Stephanie cleared her throat causing MacKenzie to jump.
"You're right MacKenzie, I am out for myself. When I get what I want, Hayworth gets what he wants. Your husband and I are on the same page, why aren't you?" Stephanie asked Hayworth's wife.
"Because I know how this game is going to end. I've been through DX vs McMahon wars before and they never end well. All that happens is that people I care about get hurt and you get closer and closer to losing your mind. Whether you win or lose Stephanie, I am not putting my husband's future in your hands. I'd rather he be in the hands of a man he can trust, not a woman he should utterly despise," Mac said firmly.
"That's enough MacKenzie," Hayworth said firmly. "I wanted to make love to you this morning but now I just want to be by myself,"
MacKenzie stumbled over her words as her husband's demeanour fell as did his interest in being with her, "The last thing I wanted to do was go behind your back but you left me with no choice! You cannot trust Stephanie McMahon, you'll end up making the biggest mistake of life!"
"I think you should go and see your father, Stephanie and I have some business to take care of and the last thing I want is you putting us to sleep again so you can run off and tell DX what we're up to. If Hunter wants to go to court so be it, at least I get a shot at getting revenge for what he's done to me,"
"Stop calling your father by his first name! It's disrespectful," MacKenzie admonished her husband.
"No, you're the one who's being disrespectful, now go please. I'll see you after I've finished with Steph, now go see your father, I'll call you when I'm done," Hayworth said and MacKenzie ran to the shower and turned it on quickly so Hayworth couldn't hear her cry.
Stephanie gave Hayworth a half smile as he sat on his bed where he had just laid with his wife, deflated.
"All this legal stuff is really bad for my marriage," he told Stephanie and she nodded with empathy.
"Take it from me Hayworth, no matter what goes down between you and your father, you're going to need a strong, loving wife to come home to. Don't let what Hunter did come between you and Mac, she's just scared that something bad is going to happen to you, that's why she did what she did. She's been through the ringer with DX and my family, I think she was hoping for a fresh start. I can't blame her for being upset. I suggest you make it right before she goes to see her father in Clearwater,"
"But she doesn't want me to work with you against Hunter, how can I get her to change her mind?" Hayworth asked Stephanie and the McMahon heiress sat next to him and put her hand on his shoulder with a warm smile.
"By showing her how much you really love her. We don't have to talk business right now, go join her in the shower and turn that frown of hers upside down, if you know what I mean," Stephanie said.
Hayworth blushed, "You're so bad Stephanie," he said bashfully and he looked over at the shower then quickly back at Stephanie, "I'll meet you at Starbucks after I'm done,"
Stephanie ruffled his hair, "Go put a smile on that beautiful girl's face," she said before she left the HayMac apartment and called Bayley to get an update on the commercial for the Black Heart Diaries web series that was premiering in less than two weeks.
Finn Balor's apartment, Los Angeles, CA
While Stephanie contacted Bayley to see if Seth was on board with the Jimmy Choo commercial, Seth and Bianca Belair were on their way to Finn Balor's apartment to make sure Becky Lynch was okay.
Los Angeles was definitely Seth's home away from home and he loved the City of Angels. The last time he was there was with Sasha but Bianca was the woman he needed the most by his side this day. His Treasurer of Secrets had revealed the most disgusting thing so far to date with her Gift from God and Seth had to make sure Becky was okay after accidentally sleeping with him thanks to that enchanted sapphire necklace. Though Bianca had assured him that Becky was fine, Seth wanted to make sure, so he had to see her in person. The nature of the evil wish meant that Seth had no idea who he was sleeping with last night. He thought he was sleeping with his wife and he was revolted that once again, Bayley had injected her way into his marital bed, this time, using Becky as a conduit.
"I feel so guilty Bianca," Seth said as th of WWE walked alongside him on their way up to Finn's apartment. "I don't think that 8th shower got the stench of guilt off of me,"
Bianca smoothed away the worry lines in Seth's forehead, "Don't lose your good looks over this Seth, Becky's fine. It could have been a lot worse,"
"No but, I thought I was making love to my wife and I didn't know it was Becky. I've been friends with Becky forever, this is not how I wanted our friendship to go. Sex is supposed to be between a man and his woman, not his best friend, former best friend and a shape-shifting demon!"
Bianca could see that Seth was starting to freak out so she tried to make him see what happened with Becky from another angle, "Okay Seth, let me ask you a question: how was it for you last night?"
"Huh?" Seth asked bemused. "Why does that matter?"
"Just answer the question: did you enjoy making love to your wife last night, yes or no?"
"But I wasn't making love to my wife, I was making love to Becky and Bayley at the same-time. Ew, yuck!" Seth said and he fake vomited. "How gross is that?!"
"Just tell me, did you enjoy having sex last night, yes or no?" Bianca said patting Seth on the back.
"Yes, I did. So what, what's your point?" Seth asked Bianca.
"So, that means that you made love to your wife without even knowing it wasn't her. Your mind was on her, your brain was filled with Sasha Banks and you made love thinking she was with you the whole time. You can't change what was really going on but you should take pride in the fact that, in your mind, you were making love to your wife, not Becky or Bayley," Bianca said and Seth thought about it.
"Hmm, I never thought of it that way," he said and he started to feel better. "I really didn't do anything wrong did I?"
"No, of course you didn't. We just have to deal with the fallout now, just like everytime Bayley does something sick and twisted to you. There's something else you should know too Seth," Bianca said and Seth looked at her cautiously.
"Do I really want to hear what you're about to tell me?" Seth asked Bianca.
"Definitely not," she said.
"Well, then it can wait until after we've done talking to Becky," Seth said and he rang Finn's doorbell.
Becky answered the door with a toothbrush in her jaw corner. "Thank God you two are here, we got a big problem. Get inside we need to talk," she said pulling Bianca and Seth into Finn's apartment.
Bianca checked her cell-phone while Seth and Becky walked into Finn's living room.
"Where's Balor?" Seth asked Becky.
"In New York with the Street Profits talking wedding stuff. Not exactly my idea of fun," Becky said and Seth shook his head at her.
"You were never the romantic type Bex," he said and he took a deep breath and sat down on Finn's sofa, "Can we talk for a minute?"
"Um, what about?" Becky asked Seth.
"Can you just sit next to me for a second?" Seth asked her gently patting to the space next to him.
"If you wanna talk about what happened last night, I'd rather not talk to you about that in here," Becky said and Seth furrowed his brow at her.
"Why not here?" he asked her.
"Because Finn and I had sex on that couch," she replied and Seth leapt up and dusted himself off.
"Ew, gross!" he said. "Why are you sleeping with Finn, you're not married yet. You're not supposed to be sleeping with anyone until you get married,"
"Yeah well that theory went straight to Hell last night, didn't it?" Becky replied as Seth headed towards the kitchen. "Yeah, um, I slept with Finn last year, way before he proposed to me and we did it in every room in this apartment,"
"Oh great Bex, don't you have a favourite place to do it in? Do you have to spread yourself so wide when it comes to your love-making?" Seth said and Becky laughed at his choice of words. Certain that there was no way to make himself comfortable, Seth decided to stand instead of sit. "Fine, I guess we can do this standing up,"
"Finn and I did that too," Becky said and Seth covered his face with embarrassment.
"Fine, let's just sit right here and talk," Seth said crossing his legs in front of the couch. "You didn't have sex in this exact spot, did you?"
Becky chuckled at Seth's prudish behaviour, "I'll just go spit out this toothpaste, I'll be right back," she said and Seth shuddered. Suddenly, Becky spitting out anything made him very uncomfortable.
"I hate Bayley so much," he said to himself as he waited for the Man to return so they could have one of the most uncomfortable conversations he had ever had with someone he considered to be a very close friend.
Bianca came over to him and laid back on the couch. Seth thought it only fair to tell her what Becky told him about that couch.
"Bianca, just so you know, Finn and Becky had sex on that couch, so you might wanna get up and sit here with me," Seth said but Bianca didn't move.
"I know, that's why I had the couch cleaned before we came over," Bianca said and Seth jumped onto the couch next to her relieved.
"Oh thank God, give me some," Seth said to Bianca putting his hand out for a hi-five which Bianca reciprocated. "I know I can always count on you to take care of business,"
Bianca smiled, "Yeah, this couch has seen a lot of action," she said as Becky came back into the living room. Bianca looked at Seth, "do you want me to be here for this?"
"Yeah, you already know everything and you being here might make Becky feel better about what I'm going to say," Seth said and Bianca looked at Becky who gave her a worrisome look.
"What the Hell is he worrying about? I told him I'm okay about last night," Becky asked her.
"You know Seth, he just wants to make sure you really are okay. I told him that you are fine but given the nature of what happened, I think it's only fair that he ask you himself," Bianca said and Becky shrugged.
"It was just sex, what's the big deal?" Becky asked and Seth gave her a knowing look.
"When have you ever known sex not to be a big deal? Especially how it went down with us last night," Seth said and he patted the space next to him and Becky sat down by him non-plussed.
"Seth, it's really not a big deal. We've both had sex before, it's not like I'm suffering from PTSD or something," Becky said.
"I know and I'm so happy that you feel that way Becky but there's still some stuff I have to take care of to make sure you're really okay," Seth said and he called for his prayer shawl and Shawl swooped in and rested on his shoulders.
Becky nodded, "Yes, you want to pray for me. That's okay Seth, I wouldn't have expected anyting less from a Prayer Warrior," she said and she bowed her head as Seth prayed over her. He asked God to break any illicit soul ties that had formed between them as a result of what happened last night. Seth also asked God to fortify Becky's spirit so that it would not be polluted with sexually immoral thoughts. He also prayed that she would not change towards him and that they would continue to be friends.
"In Jesus' name I pray. Amen," he said.
"Amen," Becky said.
"Amen," Bianca said and they all opened their eyes and took a deep breath.
"Are you alright Bex?" Bianca asked Becky and she fell onto Seth and hugged him.
"I never want anyting like that to happen to me again," she said earnestly and Seth looked over at Bianca as he hugged Becky.
"I can't guarantee that it won't Becky," he said solemnly, and Becky sat up, her cheeks flushed red with anger.
"What do you mean?" she said. "I can't go through that again; do you know what it's like having you make love to me? It's like taking something that doesn't belong to me and shoving it up my-"
"-okay Becky that's enough," Bianca said. "I know where your mind is going but Seth's right. If Bayley is friends with Sasha, that necklace will always be used to get her into bed him and if anyone tries to stop it, we could all end up sleeping with Seth,"
Becky folded her arms and shook her head, "This must be Hell for you," she said to Seth, "sleeping with tree beautiful women without even knowing it, I know guys that would kill to sleep with Bayley, Sasha and me,"
"Well, I didn't do it on purpose, I'm not that type of guy Bex, you know that. I've never been one to sleep around, I was a virgin before I married Sasha. Isn't it ironic? I've only slept with one woman my entire life and now because of this sapphire necklace, I've slept with three. Crazy, right?"
"Yeah, crazy, just like how I'm about to go on Bayley if she doesn't stop doing this," Bianca said. "I know you're cool Becky, but I am not okay with Seth accidentally sleeping with me. I'm a married woman, a happily married woman, who is about to have her first child,"
"Don't worry Bianca, I think I've figured out a way to put an end to all of these demonic exchanges," Becky said and she told Seth and Bianca her idea.
"Wow," Seth said, "that's crazy enough to work,"
Bianca nodded, "I can't wait to see the look on her face the next time Bayley tries to use that necklace to sleep with Seth. She's going to be mortified!" Bianca said. "Great job Becky!"
"Becky! Becky! Becky! Becky!" Seth chanted and Bianca joined in on the Becky chant and the Man shook her head at them unimpressed.
"What a pair of dopes," she said and she went back to the bathroom to finish getting dressed while Seth and Bianca continued to chant her name in her future husband's apartment.
