Chapter 32
Dwayne sits in the cafeteria with Adam Copeland; he had gone back to work after his week of suspension or as Vince liked to call it his 'paid absence' and they were just a few hours away from Raw. Vince always liked them to turn up early; he liked to have time to run through the whole show and the promos if needed. Then there were the pre-show meetings. Dwayne hated these, he had to sit in a room with all the others and listen as Vince babbled on. It was obvious no one really listened to him that is apart from Paul of course. Paul would always listen and stick his hand up and add his own smart-ass comments. Dwayne hated that, in fact Dwayne hated Paul but that wasn't exactly a secret around there these days.
"Would she be there by now?" Adam asks watching Dwayne as he picks up his phone every few seconds to check he has enough signal so Steph can ring him. Adam grabs his phone and slams it down on the table "That is very annoying, just relax, she'll ring you when she's ready" Adam says seeing that Dwayne looks anxious.
"Sorry. so do you have a match tonight or what?" Dwayne asks glancing down at his phone again. Adam picks it up and puts it in his own jacket pocket.
"Enough with the phone already!" Adam says passing Dwayne his plate of donuts "Eat these, take your mind off of things" Adam as well as everyone knew, give Dwayne a donut and he was putty in your hands.
"I don't feel like eating" Dwayne says resting his head on one of his hands as he stares into space.
"Wow you do have it bad" Adam laughs "Suit yourself, I'll eat them then" Adam goes to take one but Dwayne pulls the plate away and growls at him before he starts laughing. Dwayne's phone starts ringing in Adam's pocket.
"Gimme the phone!" Dwayne shouts holding out his hand and almost jumping up and down in his seat.
"Easy tiger!" Adam says pulling out the phone and taunting Dwayne with it before answering it "Heeeeeeelo!...Hi Steph..It's Adam...yeah..how you doing?...good good..yeah he is here, I'm trying to wind him up..yeah he looks a bit angry to me..ok, here he is.bye Steph!" Adam grins and passes the phone to Dwayne.
"Hey..are you ok, was the flight ok..good, is Chris behaving himself ok?....oh not again!..ok.I miss you..well a weeks is a long time for me..ok, ring me later?..I'll be out of here about 1.. About 8am your time.any when tomorrow your time I don't mind..ok, I love you too..bye" Dwayne hangs up the phone and puts it in his pocket. "Chris was messing around on the plane as usual" Dwayne says laughing.
"Was he pressing all the over-head buttons again like he did when we were flying to North Carolina?" Adam asks laughing at the memory of the flight.
"Yeah and he kept playing with the lights" Dwayne says "Cant take him anywhere, it's strange not having him here though, it seems really quiet" Dwayne says looking around him at the people in the cafeteria.
"So I guess there's going to be a few wild parties round yours then while the lady is away?" Adam laughs nodding towards Trish and Jackie who are sitting on the other table.
"Erm.. how about no, not that kind of party" Dwayne says laughing.
"Trish and Jackie have a thing for you. You could have any woman in this building, or outside of it" Adam says waving and smiling at Trish.
"So could you, besides I'm not like that. I'm perfectly happy how I am, I've got Stephanie" Dwayne says punching Adam in the arm trying to get him to stop waving and winking at Trish and Jackie.
"Oww, like I said you have got it bad Dwayne my friend!" Adam says "Right I gotta go find that Andrew, I have a match with him later tonight, catch you later" Adam gets up and walks off to find Test.
