Chapter 49

On Sunday, November 18th, it was Survivor Series and everyone was excited for it. Mercedes was in a classical Five-On-Five Survivor Series Elimination Match. It was her, Becky, Carmella, Peyton Royce and Billie Kay versus Charlotte, Bayley, Alexa Bliss, Natalya, and Askua.

Pay-Per-View days always started early, especially the big ones. Survivor Series had become a bigger Pay-Per-View again in the last few years since the roster split in 2016. So, Mercedes and Colby were up early and on their way to the arena for Survivor Series.

However, they were stopping by to pick up Abby, her fiancé, Derek, her sister, Kim, and Kim's boyfriend, Mark. Mercedes said she and Colby would pick them up personally for Survivor Series and bring them to the arena. They would be getting the whole experience of everything going on that day. Of course, Mercedes and Colby would not be able to be around with them all day, because they would need to get ready for the event. But there were others who would keep them entertained or whatever until it was really time for the show or when Mercedes returned.

Mercedes and Abby had exchanged phone numbers. So, when Mercedes and Colby arrived at Abby's apartment building, Mercedes texted her, letting her know she and Colby were there. Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark came out of the building a few moments later. WWE had arranged for a car to pick Mercedes and Colby up and then for Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark.

"Hello everyone," Mercedes said as she got out of the large SUV.

"Hey," Abby replied.

"I should have figured WWE would have sent you in a car," One of the males commented.

"Special treatment for special guests," Mercedes replied.

"All right then," He replied.

"Mercedes, this is my fiancé, Derek," Abby said.

"Pleasure to meet you," Mercedes said, shaking his hand.

"Likewise," Derek said.

"You remember, Kim," Abby said.

"I do," Mercedes said. "Hello again."

"Hello," Kim replied. "And this is my boyfriend, Mark Stevens."

"Hi."

"Hello," Mark said.

"Is everyone ready then?" Mercedes asked.

"Yes," Abby said.

"Yes, because its freaking cold," Mark said.

"Go head and get in," Mercedes said.

The four all climbed into the SUV. They moved all the way to the very back seat. Mercedes then climbed in after them and took her seat about in one of the separate seats. Everyone got settled in their seats and then driver pulled back onto the road and continued the drive to the arena. Derek and Mark introduced themselves to Colby.

"Where's your daughter?" Kim asked.

"My mom is bringing her to the arena a little later," Mercedes replied. "Evie will also be sitting in the crowd for the event tonight. Her first time too."

"Oh, that should be fun," Mark said. "She'll have a ball."

"Yeah, she's good with chaos of crowds and loudness," Colby commented.

"Yes, we tested it out," Mercedes laughed.

The conversation changed about Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark. The four talked a bit about themselves. Mercedes and Abby had been talking endlessly over the last month and Abby wrote lengthy e-mails and text messages about herself and the other three. But Mercedes and Colby could talk to them personally about it.

"Here we are," Mercedes said, recognizing the area on the outside of the vehicle. She turned to the front of the car. She had been sitting in her seat so she could talk to her guests in the back.

"Yay!" Kim clapped.

"Someone's excited," Mark commented.

"Um, I get to hang out with my sister, my future brother-in-law, you, and WWE people today. Something I had wanted to do for a long time."

"I know. I was just teasing." He leaned over and kissed his girlfriend.

Mercedes grinned looking over at her husband. Colby gave a wink at her with a smile on his lips. Mercedes looked back out the window. She held her hands together as they got closer and closer to the arena.

Your hometown hero is back, Boston!

The car soon arrived at the arena. Mercedes and Colby both climbed out of the car on their sides. Abby, her fiancé, sister, and sister's boyfriend followed. The driver of the car got Mercedes and Colby's bags out of the trunk.

"Oh, my God, I see, Big Cass and Carmella!" Kim squealed with a delight.

Mercedes grinned. "Hey, Bill and Leah!" She shouted toward them.

The two looked over toward Mercedes and them.

"Hi!" Leah waved.

"Stay there!"

Leah nodded her head. She looked at Bill with a smile. He smiled too, but grabbed their bags from the trunk of their rental car.

"Come on," Mercedes said to her special guests.

Mercedes led the way over to Leah and Bill with Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark following her with Colby.

"Hi sweetheart," Leah said, hugging Mercedes.

"Hi," Mercedes said. "Hi Bill."

"Hey Mer," Bill said, hugging her.

"Leah and Bill aka Carmella and Big Cass, these are my special guests for tonight," Mercedes grinned. "Abby and Kim Counts, Abby's fiancé, Derek Lyons, and Kim's boyfriend, Mark Stevens."

"Hi," Leah said, shaking their hands. "It's nice to meet all of you."

"Likewise, likewise," Kim said, jumping up and down, not hiding her fan girl excitement.

Leah and Bill laughed. They didn't mind it. Mercedes was happy by it.

"Well, let's all go inside," Mercedes said.

"Yes, because there a lot more WWE Superstars who would love to meet you four," Colby commented with a smile.

Mercedes grinned.

Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark all had fun with everything through the next few hours. They met Superstars and road agents who were superstars themselves once. They also got a backstage look at everything that went through with the event.

Mercedes was happy for that. But she was even happier to see Evelyn later that day with her own mom. However, Judith told her daughter her granddaughter had been crying for her all day.

"Oh, sweetie," Mercedes said. "You have me right now."

Mercedes held Evelyn tightly in her arms. Evelyn was getting to that very clingy stage. However, Mercedes had been a bit busier the last few weeks too. She had had been getting ready for Survivor Series and then everything with Abby and her family. And Mercedes felt tired from it all too.

Mercedes's spirits did pick up with Angela, Vicky, and Emily being there as well. They were really excited to meet Abby and all them. They all had fun talking. Evie was also very happy to her aunties so Mercedes gave her to them. That made things a bit easier.

"Are you all right, Mercedes?" Pam asked her best friend in the locker room a few minutes later.

"I have all kinds of shit going through my head right now, Pammy," Mercedes replied.

Pam knew it was something. She went over to her friend.

"Tell me about it, hun," Pam whispered.

"I'm burnt out!" Mercedes replied. "I've just been doing so much since Colby and I came back from our honeymoon."

"It's everything for tonight, Mercedes. Just try to get through until after our match is over, okay?"

Mercedes nodded her head.

Judith, Angela, Vicky, and Emily got to their seats with Evelyn with no trouble. Abby, Derek, Kim, and Mark were taken to their seats.

Mercedes pushed everything out of her head. She got all the way to her match with a clear head. When she made her entrance, she got a huge pop for the crowd. She smiled at it. However, as she was in the ring or in the corner, she heard a child screaming. She knew it was Evelyn. It was Evelyn crying for her. She noticed her mom quickly leave her seat to take Evelyn away.

Mercedes with Carmella ended up picking up the win for Raw. Mercedes did what she had to do for her hometown crowd. But then she was back in the back.

Mercedes found Evelyn with both her mom and Colby. Colby was the only one who could get her quiet.

"She's feeling warm," Colby said to his wife.

"Give her to me," Mercedes said.

Evelyn was quietly crying. Mercedes took her daughter into her arms.

"It's all right, sweetheart," Mercedes said. "Mommy's here. I'll take care of you."

Mercedes then went all the way out to her and Colby's bus in the parking lot of the arena.
