A/N: Heya people, thanks to all those who reviewed the last chapter. I know this chapter is late as well but the next RAW chapter will be up around Sunday but I go back to school so I'll be kinda busy as I'm going into year 10 so I'm starting me GCSE work. Due to school starting I have to start getting to bed earlier and I'm out most of the day so in future I will be doing chapters on the weekends. I know that this chapter is short but I should have chapter 8 up very soon. Anyway, on with chapter 7 of Surviving.
"Yes Dave…No Dave…But Dave…Ok Dave…DAVE!" Lexi laughed at the outraged tone of John's voice as he spoke to Dave Batista. The two had been talking for a while now and Lexi found it highly amusing, John however was becoming increasingly irritated due to the fact he was holding the phone between his shoulder and ear, carrying his bag, trying to put his pass to get in away and hold Lexi's hand at the same time. For what seemed like the thirtieth time since they had left the car, Lexi attempted to pull her hand away, allowing John to put the pass away and hold the phone properly and for the thirtieth time John squeezed her hand and frowned at her.
"Ok Dave…Yes Dave…I'll speak to you later Dave…Bye Dave." John sighed as he attempted to grab the phone with one of his hands. He eventually gave in and let go of Lexi's hand, put his pass and phone away before taking hold of Lexi's hand and continued walking down the corridor. Lexi suppressed her giggles before giving in to temptation and asking a question she had been dying to ask for some time.
"Was that Dave?" She began laughing again while John rolled his eyes.
"Not funny." He stated even though he had a smile on his face. Lexi stopped laughing but still had a huge smile on her face.
"He's such an old woman isn't he," She said causing John to laugh out loud, "Well he is. And what did he say that made you go DAVE!"
"Nothin' important." John said, but he turned a funny shade of red. Lexi nodded unconvinced but let the matter lie, deciding to ask Dave whenever she spoke to or saw him. They reached the divas locker room and arranged to meet later on in catering; John then gave her a light kiss before strolling down the corridor with a spring in his step. Lexi laughed to herself as she entered the room and found only two divas in there. One was Ashley who gave her a small wave and the other was a diva that Lexi had not had the chance to meet.
"You're Lexine Andrews aren't you." Lexi smiled and put her bag down.
"Yeah I'm Lexi, it's nice to meet you Victoria." The other woman simply nodded and left the room leaving Lexi and Ashley alone.
"Ooooooooook then. Hey Lee." Ashley smiled before continuing to text someone on her mobile Lexi sat down cross-legged on the bench and began to look around the room, trying to find some way to pass the time.
"Who ye textin'?" Ashley shook her head and carried on texting which made Lexi all the more curious, she shuffled closer to Ashley who in turn shuffled away, this carried on until they reached the end of the bench and Ashley fell off.
As she fell, Lexi grabbed the phone and sprinted out of the room, laughing hysterically. Ashley jumped up and raced after her calling her every name under the sun. Lexi looked back as she rounded a corner and crashed straight into a pile of cardboard boxes, which were thankfully empty. Ashley appeared from around the corner and tripped over a box sending her falling on top of Lexi. Hearing laughter the two looked up to see Shawn Michaels, Shelton, John and Big Show looking down at them. Lexi smiled and quickly moved away
"Evil witch." Ashley said while Lexi giggled insanely at her. She began reading the text but was disappointed when she discovered it was only finding out how Christy was doing on SMACKDOWN.
"Well look who it is Torrie." Lexi frowned at the sound of Candice's' voice. She went to step out in front of Show but another idea came to her and she stayed still. She poked Show to let him know what she was doing and he poked her back in understanding.
"Hey guys, hi John." Lexis' temper flared at the tone of Torrie's voice when she said John's name. Lexi took a quiet deep breath as the guys nodded at the two but keeping their eyes on Ashley and subtly on Lexi knowing that the two women were ready to pounce on the former SMACKDOWN divas.
"Where's Lexi tonight?" Candice asked "innocently". Lexi was tempted to punch the sugary voice out of the brunette's mouth.
"She's around." Ashley stated coldly. The two looked at her before turning back to look at the guys. Lexi tried not to laugh at Show who was swaying from side to side in time with music that was coming from the radio. Her laughter was soon stopped at Torrie's next sentence.
"So John are you up to anything tonight?" Torrie stepped forward and placed a hand on his arm, "Because I was wondering if you wanted to come out with me and Candice, I'm sure we could find some way to pass the night away couldn't we?"
"I'm pretty sure that his girlfriend wouldn't like that." Shawn said with a grin on his face. Lexi clenched her fists and waited for a response.
"A girlfriend, who? Since when?" Shock was evident in Candice's' voice when she spoke. It took all of Lexis' self-control not to step out and tell her exactly whom it was.
"Since last week and it's Lexi." Shelton said in a know-it-all voice.
"Well I've got to go, I'm on the Cabana, by." Shawn turned and left, smiling at Lexi who nodded at him as he left.
"Well, Lexi isn't all that all important and she's nothing compared to us. Come on John, you know deep down inside that we can show you a better time than she ever could. I bet you haven't even slept together yet have you? Don't tell me you're not tempted by our offer. Lets face it, it's not as if she could ever look as good as us, come on, she runs around in trousers that don't do anything for her figure and the tops she wears aren't exactly classy. She actually reminds me of a tramp."
At this Lexi snapped, she dodged around Big Show and tackled Torrie to the ground, Candice attempted to grab Lexi but Ashley grabbed hold of her and held her back. Lexi laid into the blonde before she felt herself lifted up and carried down the hall. She yelled and shouted until she was dumped unceremoniously on the floor in John's locker room.
"What did ye pull me off for?" She asked, pretty pissed off that she hadn't inflicted the damage she wanted to.
"Because I didn't want Bitchoff seeing you and putting' you in an unfair match or firing you." John told her and sat on the bench, Lexi sighed and nodded at Shelton, Ashley and an out of breath Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair. Lexi grabbed a bottle of water and sat sideways on his knee and leaned her head against his as he wrapped his arms around her.
"What happened to you two?" Shelton asked Ric and Shawn, the two veterans smiled and recounted the events of the Cabana, Ric and Shawn then left to take care of some business as the rest of the group watched as Big Show dominated his match and then all sat in horror as Snitsky attacked him from behind. Shelton and Ashley left to check on him leaving Lexi and John alone giving them the opportunity to make out for a while. Their session was cut short however as they watched Ashley's match.
"Where did she learn to do that?" John asked of Ashley's offensive moves.
"She told me she wanted to learn to wrestle so I started teaching her." Lexi said proudly. Her triumph was short-lived as Victoria hit the Widows Peak, Lexi jumped up and sprinted out of the locker room and headed for the ring. In the ring Torrie, Candice and Victoria were celebrating when they saw Lexi heading their way.
Immediately, Torrie and Candice left the ring but Victoria stayed, she wanted to see what the girl could do. Lexi slid into the ring and gave Victoria a shoulder block and followed up with a standing moonsault, but Victoria rolled out of the way and out of the ring but Lexi landed on her feet. The three made their way up the ramp while Lexi and Chris Kay checked on Ashley, they helped her backstage and into the trainer's room where Shelton, Show and John were.
Lexi excused herself and found a monitor by the ramp where she watched as Edge and Matt Hardy tried to kill each other. She all but screamed in horror when Matt did a Side Effect off the stage, she ran out to the scene and her legs almost buckled when she got there. The two men's bodies were tangled in all of the equipment and neither were moving. Lexi heard a small voice calling for help and looked around to see referee Jack Doan calling for help. Lexi knew that his voice was too quiet and that the medics wouldn't hurry unless it was a loud shout she took matters into her own hands and began using her very loud voice to yell for help.
"We need help! Hurry this is urgent we need to get them out of here now!" The crowd who had gone extremely quiet and were watching intently could hear Lexi's voice. The medics rushed out and began to work, as they wheeled Matt out Lexi was met by Shelton who offered to go with Matt to the hospital and promised to phone them.
When the ambulance had sped out of the arena Lexi caught sight of John on the monitor as he told the world that he saved money on his car insurance and Lexi grinned slightly.
She watched closely as Angle made his way out and informed John of his achievements, but looked on in confusion as John began saying that he was in over his head. She then relaxed as she heard the confident tone of the much-loved WWE champion pretty much telling Angle that he wasn't afraid.
She laughed when John turned his back to Angle and stuck his ass out but held her breath when Angle got the Ankle Lock in and breathed a sigh of relief when John kicked out of it. She smiled as she thought of all of the different things that John made her feel and she knew that she couldn't be any happier right now.
Her smile widened when she saw the reason for her happiness strolling down the corridor with and air of confidence about him. As soon as he approached, John swept her up in a bear hug and kissed the top of her head, without a word the two gathered their things and went back to the hotel, both knowing that they would probably get in trouble for leaving before the end of the show but neither caring as they had each other.
