Her worries were gnawing away at her, plaguing her until it was constantly on her mind. Effectively, Nidia had got to her and Molly was mad at herself that she'd let it happen. Nidia had managed to make her doubt the person she thought she was falling in love with, making her afraid to commit to what they had. Molly wanted to commit but right now, whenever they were together, all she could think about was what Nidia had told her; Hurricane had cheated on her, he'd broken her heart, he wasn't what he seemed. Then there was what happened in the ring; he wouldn't hit Nidia on principle but Molly couldn't shake the feeling it was connected to the fact that Nidia said he was in love her. It was a horrible cycle, winding round and round in her head, making her more and more uncomfortable. She desperately wanted to ask Hurricane about it but he was always dashing off to other places and she was afraid she'd look a real idiot as it would look like she believed what Nidia said who was known to be a notorious gossip.

"Arrrrrrggggghhhhh!" Molly groaned, lying back on her hotel bed

She needed to get out to escape the walls but it was raining. She wanted to be with Hurricane so badly, to feel his touch to reassure her that everything was alright. But she couldn't because it made her think of Nidia and her words. There was only one solution; to back off from Hurricane for a while so she could work out whether Nidia was right or wrong. Only then would her own feelings and doubts be sorted out before she was ready to be with him again.

She pulled a book off the bedside table and flipped it open to the marked page, beginning to read again. Everything was serenely quiet, the rain falling lightly on the window helping her to relax. She read quietly for a while, just taking time out to stop worrying, she needed it badly. There was a soft knock at the door. When she opened it, Hurricane stood there.

"Hey" she said softly, drawing back a little

"Hey, how you doing?" he asked, searching her face with his eyes

"I'm good, still a little sore from Jamie's powerbomb but that'll pass" she moved aside to let him in

"Man, I wish I could have stopped him somehow"

"You were too busy somewhere else" Molly clapped a hand over her mouth, she couldn't believe she'd just said that, she sounded like Trish "you know, with Nidia and all, her keeping you out of the ring"

"I know, but I still wish I could have stopped him" smiled Hurricane

He sat down on the bed beside her and took her hand, she managed a smile. She felt tense now, forcing the thoughts out of her head so she could just be with him with no strings attached.

"Do you always wear your costume?" she teased lightly

"Of course ma'am, in case of emergencies" he said, putting on a macho- superhero voice

She laughed and hit him lightly on the arm.

"I've waiting to hear that laugh all night" he said, stroking her cheek gently "why are you so wound up? What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just some stuff Nidia said to me that's all " she said casually "I'll be fine, I just need some space for a bit you know, to sort everything inside my head out"

"Whatever you need, your superhero will provide" he said in the superhero voice again, getting up "you know I'll give you the space you need, see you at the house shows and don't forget Shannon's debuting on next week's Smackdown"

"How could I, you've only reminded me ever since you found out yourself" she said rolling her eyes

"Just checking" replied Hurricane, moving out of the door "just checking"

Molly fell back onto the bed; what was she going to do? She wanted to be with him so badly but Nidia's thoughts had wound their way into her brain, not letting her forget them. Then she was hit by the sickening thought that this was just what Nidia wanted and it had happened.

"So does he like having a girl's name?" teased Molly, full well knowing what the reaction would be

"Like he hasn't heard that one before" said Hurricane nudging her "he's just a cool guy you know, kinda like me"

"Of course" replied Molly with heavy sarcasm

"Alright, that's it"

Hurricane grabbed her around the waist and began tickling her, she in turn jabbed him in the ribs as hard as her shaking limbs would let her, knowing it would hurt him.

"Looks like I came at a bad time," said an amused voice behind them

Hurricane quickly dropped Molly, causing her to fall to the floor with a bump. Picking herself up, not in a very happy mood after that, she found herself face to face with Shannon Moore. He was a little shorter than Hurricane with shoulder length dark blonde hair, he smiled at her and she found herself smiling back

"Molly, this is Shannon Moore one of my best buds and Shannon this is Molly Holly our Women's champion and a very close friend of mine" Hurricane said

"So you're the famous Shannon" said Molly, shaking his hand, tingles all over her body "Hurricane hasn't let me forget it's your debut today"

"Nice to see he's still annoying people after we parted" said Shannon with a grin

"Of course, you guys were in that tag team together, what was it called?" Molly pretended to think hard

"3 Count" the two guys chorused together, launching into a rap and dance routine

"You look ridiculous," Molly said, laughing

"We know" replied Shannon, slowing to a halt "we didn't think much of it either but we had to do it, me, Evan and Sugar Shane here"

"Oh yes, Sugar Shane, what a perfect name for you" said Molly slyly "in fact I think that's what I'll call you from now on"

"You dare and I don't know what I'll do" threatened Hurricane "oh, time for me to go and plan with my tag team partner"

With a wave, he whooshed off down the corridor, leaving Molly and Hurricane looking at each other.

"Are you ok?" asked Shannon quietly "It's just you look a little pissed off and kinda sad"

"That obvious huh?" she sighed "I've just having a few problems that's all"

"With Hurricane? I take it you're more than just friends?" Shannon said

"Yeah we are" she lowered her eyes shyly "but it's not him, well it is but it's more me than him...oh" she gave up trying to explain "you go ahead and begin warming up for your big match, don't worry about me"

"Ok, I know we've only just met but if you need to talk then I'm here" he put hand on her arm for emphasis than moved away

He made her tingle, she stroked the patch of skin where he'd touched her, it had given her goosebumps. She had been flirting with him, she realised and hadn't felt ashamed doing it. He was all that Hurricane had made him to be, sweet, caring and very talented from the tapes Hurricane had showed her. He was different to Hurricane but at the same time, made her feel the same way about him. This made things all the more confusing if she was attracted to his best friend, a lot more confusing. As she turned a corner, she found herself face to face with Nidia who had a huge smile on her face

"Hey Molly, have you had a chance to ask Hurricane about him and me yet? Because I think I'll be asking for some from him, he's so persistent in asking for it" " she gyrated her hips before turning back and walked away

This was not what Molly wanted to hear, after the show, she had to talk to Hurricane. Maybe not, maybe she'd just talk to Shannon instead; he could help her figure out what to do.
