Recap: Lana had just made her come back to the WWE and came back with a vengeance. After setting up her storyline with Trish Status, the women's champ, she had and altercation backstage with her husband. She was saved by Dave and Randy and is en route to a hotel.
The drive back to the hotel was mostly silent. Both wrestlers were tired from their matches on that nights show and the awkwardness of the evenings happenings did help much either.
They turned off the highway and were in the final stretch of the drive when Dave's cell phone rang. "Hello?" He kept a hand on one on the phone.
"Hey, it's Paul, do you wanna do me a favor?" Paul knew his best friend won't reuse, so he began to list the conditions. "I need you to stay with Lana tonight. Everyone said that Chris left here really angry, and I don't want him to bother her, but I'm sure she doesn't want us all there sweating her so…."
Dave agreed, but had questions, "What if …Uh, "He quickly thought of a code, "What if the sun doesn't want to shine?"
Lana looked over and Dave and smiled.
"Yeah, what if I don't wanna do something?" She watched Dave as she tried to finish the conversation.
Paul sighed a little and Stephanie screamed something inaudibly from the other line. "Well, a little birdie told me she does…" The boys ended the phone conversation s they pulled into the valet at the Chicago Hilton and Garden.
"So what did they want me to do?" Lana grabbed her bag out of the car and followed Dave to check-in.
"Well, they want me to stay with you tonight in case Jericho comes…" Dave waited for Lana to protest, but instead, maybe unconsciously, she edged closer to Dave as they walked up to her room. "You're okay with that?"
Lana slid in her card key and then turned on the light in her room. "Yeah, I guess so…" She threw her stuff down in the small common room of her suite and made her way to the master bathroom. "So are you going to bed or-"
Dave also threw his things down, but went to the phone instead of the back room, "Or what? Get some room service and watch movies?"
Lana came back out to the common room in a pair of black cheer shorts and a baggy red shirt. "Yeah, that's what I was thinking…"
Dave called room service and ordered enough junk food for and army while Lana browsed through the movies on PPV. "What about the Exorcism of Emily Rose?" Dave laughed and passed, "Okay, what about Elizabethtown?"
After deciding it was too feminine Dave declined that movie too. "Fine, were watching The Notebook and that's all there is too it!"
There was a knock at the door and Dave hurried over to open it. He came back with two trays of all the goodies you could imagine and settled in at the opposite end of the couch. "We can watch The Notebook, I guess. But if you tell anyone I was part of this!"
Lana laughed an the empty threat and threw a piece of popcorn at him, "What would you do about it?"
Dave displayed feigned hurt before grabbing a cherry out of one of the ice-cream sundaes and throwing to the other end of the couch where it hit Alana square between the eyes. "I don't know…maybe that!"
Alana reached over to the tray to grab something to hit Dave with, but her attempt failed. Dave pushed the tray jjst out of her reach and she fell short. She lie there on Dave's chest and they shared a teeny laugh before a momentarily silence.
In that moment, it seemed like nothing else existed. In the semi-darkened room, Lana looked down on Dave's smiling eye and met him halfway in an innocent kiss. Though the kiss lasted only a few seconds, it felt like it took and eternity.
"We shouldn't be doing this…" Dave sat up and gently moved Lana from over top of him. He had made it to the door before realizing Lana was behind him. With one foot out the door, he turned and kissed Lana again, this time with a passion that had seemingly been absent and any kiss before. Without a word, Lana grabbed Dave's hand and removed it from the door. She closed the door and guided Dave's hand to the small of her back.
