Raleight and Mark Carroll are my own creations.

Chapter 8

When we had our first promo done, my mobile chirped.

"Hey, Dale" I answered.

"Hey, Rales. We are out side of the arena." He greeted me.

"Okay. I'll bring your passes and tickets. See you soon."

"Good." He said and hung up.

I digged Dales and Marks passes and tickets from my purse and went to the front door. I saw them standing few steps from the door. I opened it and yelled.

"Dale! Mark!"

They turned to look and then they came to me.

"So great to see you." I said hugging Dale.

"You too, darling. You look great."

Mark made coughing noises next to us.

"Don't I get a hug?"

I turned to him and smiled,

"Of course. Nice to see you, Mark."

Then I turned to security guy.

"They are VIPs." I said giving backstage passes to Mark and Dale.

"I thought you look somehow familiar. Welcome to the show mister Earnhart and mister Carroll." He said glancing passes.

I took Dales hand and we went inside. Soon we saw Rob and Sylvain. I introduced guys to each others and saw that Rob was staring our hands which were joined together. I thought that I really had to speak with him and quite soon.

We went to the lockerroom, where Randy was. Dale had said that he would like to meet him and Paul before show started.

I knocked to door and Adam opened it.

"Hey. I'd like to introduce two guys to you. Can we come in?"

"Of course. Just wait a second." He said and closed the door.

"That was Edge, wasn't it?" Mark asked.

"Yeah. Or Adam Copeland as we know him." I answered.

"Alright, you can come in." Adam opened the door again.

There was buzz of conversation in the room when we entered.

"Okay guys. Here is two guys which I want to introduce." I yelled.

Everyone turned to look at us and Randy waved to Dale.

"This is my best friend and worlds greatest Nascar driver, Dale Earnhart and his fellow driver Mark Carroll." I said receiving a amused glance from Mark.

"And I'm not great?"

"Of course you are. But Dale is my best friend and everything…" I smiled and tapped his arm.

"Dale, you know Randy already. But Mark here is Randy Orton." I said when Randy had came to us. They shaked hands and I introduced others in the room as well.

After Dale and Randy had exchanged few word, we went to the Evolutions lockerrom door. I knocked it and we entered the room.

"Hey! Look who came to see us!" I called.

Stephanie was also in the room and she and Paul started to chat with Dale, so I introduced Mark first.

"Dave, Ric. This is Mark Carroll."

They shaked hands and then I turned to Dale and introduced him.

"I have heard about you a lot. Nice to finally meet you." Dave said shaking hands with Dale.

"Rales has told about you a lot, too. Nice to meet you." Dale answered receiveing death glare from me.

It was true that I had told him about Dave, but he didn't have to say that. Particulary not when my brother was present. Steph just laughed and Dave raised his eye brows questioningly.

"Okay, show starts soon. I'll show your seats and then I'll continue my work." I said because I wanted out of the room and fast.

"Alright. I quess we see after the show." Dale said to my brother.

"Sure. Hey, do you want to come for dinner with us? I mean me, Dave, Steph, Rales and Ric." Paul asked.

"Why not." Dale aswered looking to Mark, who nodded. He choose to ignore my vivid glances which I made to him, I didn't want them to come with us.

When we stepped out of the Evolutions room, I said to him.

"You just couldn't say no, could you?"

"But Rales, I want to spend the all possible time with you. We see so rarely." He said smiling. "Don't you want us to come?"

"That's not it… Of course I want, but Dave is coming too and you always get me to embarrasing situations." I tried to explain.

I was very talented in getting myself to embarrasing situations specially when Dave was near by. I didn't need anyones help in it.

"I promise, that I'll behave." Dale answered.

"For sure?"

"Scouts honor." He grinned.

I glanced Mark, who was also grinning.

"If either of you even hints anything, I will not speak to you. Ever again." I said.

"That's a deal."

I sighed, I knew these two and didn't always trust them. Specially not in things like this.

I had managed to get seats from ringside to Mark and Dale and they were very happy about that.

"Okay, I have to go back. You two can come backstage on the same way after the show. Just show your passes and you'll get there. I don't think that I have time to fetch you after the last match. Enjoy the show!" I said when we at the stand.

"Alright. Thanks, Rales." Both said to me.

I went back to backstage and we taped couple of promos and I had time to watch half of the show. When it was over and we had the last promo ready, I saw Mark and Dale talking with Randy and Dave near by. I went to them.

"Hey guys, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing special, I just praised your show." Dale answered and looked innocent, little too innocent in my view…

"Dave?" I turned to look at him.

"He's right. We didn't talk anything special." He smiled.

I decided to drop the subject, because I knew that if they didn't want to tell anything, it was no point to go on.

"So, did you like the show?" I asked Dale and Mark.

"Yes, it was awesome!" Mark answered and Dale nodded.

Dave went to see if Paul, Ric and Steph were ready to go. We talked for a while in the corridor and then Paul and others came to us.

"Randy, do you want to come to dinner with us?" Stephanie asked.

"No!" I cried out, because I wasn't sure if I could bear it up that Randy was also there.

Everyone looked at me in wonder except Dale, who had amused smile in his face.

"I mean that… Well… I'm sure that he has other plans. Randy?" I tried to explain and looked him in a begging way.

"Actually I don't have other plans. I'll come with pleasure." He answered smiling.

I must have looked really desperate, because Dale put his hand to my shoulder and whispered.

"Don't worry. We won't embarrass you."

For some reason I wasn't so sure about that….
