I own only Nicolette.

Thanks for reviews!

Chapter 16

Amy and others had quite peaceful time in next two shows and it seemed like this quarrel between them and Matt and Hunter won't get conclusion before Nicolette would come back from her sick leave, which would happen in two weeks. Dave had still cifficulties to keep his hand off Hunter when he saw him, but he reminded himself, that he might have troubles, if he would do something to him outside the ring. Amy and Shawn kept still low profile, although it annoyed enormously the lively redhead, but she understood that it was best at that moment.

Shawn had got a small fine for kicking Matt, but he paid that without claims. He was still happy, that he had done it. No one else knew that Nicolette had hit Hunter with her cast to nose, thought it was clearly seen, that something had happened to his nose, it wasn't broken anyway. Naturally Hunter didn't tell anyone that a woman had hit him, that would been too embarrasing for him.

Amy had just arrived to show, when she saw Dawn Marie, who looked at her eyes flaming. Amy ignored her and when she was passing her, Dawn hissed.

"Well, aren't you proud."

Amy looked at her a bit amazed.

"What do you mean?"

"You walk around like the owner of the world, thought you have no reason for that."

Amy had sometimes even worse temper than Nicolette, and she wasn't going to listen Dawn Marie when she was running off her mouth. She took her by her hair and pulled hard getting her gasping of pain.

"You should shut up. Specially when you are with Matt, you should be careful and look often behind your back."

Then Amy threw her on the floor and felt a hand on her shoulders.

"Calm down, Ames. Don't waist your time on Dawn." Jeff said quietly.

"What's going on here?" All three looked on direction where the voice had come, and saw Eric Bischoff appearing. "Seems like you two have some unsolved things. What if you solve them on the ring, tonight?"

A small smile appeared on Amys face, when Dawn Marie didn't look very pleased, when she stood up from floor.

"What do you have on your mind?" Amy looked interested at Bischoff.

"I'm thinking You're Fired match and no disqualification. The one who looses, is fired immediately." He answered a bit mocking smile on his lips.

Amy heard Jeff taking a deep breath and when she saw horrified expression in Dawns face, her smile came wider despite, that it was a match, where you could not be disqualificated.

"That's a deal, Bischoff. Tonight then?"

Bischoff nodded and then Dawn said horrified.

"I'm not going to do it. I won't wrestle against Amy on the ring."

"You have no other choices." Bischoff said sternly. "If you don't want to be fired immediately."

Dawn stared at him her mouth open and nodded then hardly visibly.

"Good, that's a deal then." Bischoff said and continued his way to his office.

Amy looked once again at Dawn, who looked like she would immediately run out of the building and never come back.

"See you on the ring, Dawn Marie." She said to her and turned to follow Jeff, who came with her to womens lockerroom door.

"Are you sure about this, Amy?" Jeff looked at her seriously. "I have no doubt, that you wouldn't win Dawn, but Matt can intervene somehow to the match."

"It came to my mind too. I guess Matt will do his best,that I would be fired." She answered thoughtfully. "But I have you all."

"You are like sister to me, Ames. But I think, that I can't intervene despite Matt would…He is my brother after all." Jeff said looking worriedly at her. "And Adam isn't here."

"I understand your point. Don't worry, I will come up to something." Amy said to him at the same time when she opened the lockerroom door and stepped in.

Amy sat sighing heavily to bench and got questioning looks from Stacy, Christy and Lilian.

"Is something wrong?" Lilian sat next to her.

"Well, not really. I just agreed that I'll have you're fired match with Dawn Marie tonight." Amy answered.

"Really?" Lilian watched at redhead amazed. "Because of Matt?"

"Well, not really. Dawn just was smart mouthing to me just a moment ago and I attacked her. Just then Bischoff happened to come and when he succested it, we both agreed." Amy explained.

"Don't worry, you can win Dawn and I believe you do. Then we'll get rid of that woman as well." Lilian comforted her.

"Yeah, probably you're right…" Amy hesitated a bit. "But if Matt intervenes..."

"Don't worry, and Jeff is here."

"He just said to me, that probably he can't help me because of Matt." Amy answered.

"Well, Shawn is here anyway" Lilian grinned." You two are together again, so it will be expected, that he will come help you, if it is necessary."

"Lilian…" Amy glanced warningly towards Christy and Stacy.

"No worries, Amy. We know that you are together again. Randy told us, we haven't told about it to anyone. And we think it's awesome, you are so cute together." Stacy smiled.

Jeff hesitated a moment behind lockerroom door, which belonged to Shawn, RVD and Jericho. He thought that Shawn should know about Amys match before it actually started, and he knew that she would not herself tell about it. Before he had time to knock, the door opened and Chris Jericho stepped out of the room.

"Chris, is Shawn inside?"

Canadian nodded and called him. Shawn came to the door and when he saw Jeff , he looked at him questioningly.

"I just tought to tell you, that Amy has You're Fired without disqualification match agaist Dawn Marie tonight." Jeff blurred out and looked how different emotions changed in Shawns face before he andwered a bit hoarse voice.

"But how is that possible? What Amy has done now?"

Jeff smiled secretly, Shawn had learned to know the redhead very well during the years they had worked together.

"I don't know exactly what happened, but Dawn annoyed Amy, who attacked her and then Bischoff appeared and succested the match. Amy agreed to it immediately." Jeff explained.

"Thanks Jeff, for telling me." Shawn sighed and then he went back to lockerroom.

Amys match was on the middle of the show. Before it was her time to go to ring, she went to Jeffs lockerroom, where were also Shawn, Dave, Randy and Lilian, who was just going to announce the next match, but she had time to wish luck to Amy for her match. When the petit announcer had closed the door, Shawn pulled Amy to his lap and said her with very serious face.

"Jeff told me, what happened before the show started. I just hope that you know what you are doing."

" I can win Dawn, you won't get rid of me so easily." She answered grinning a little.

"Good, that you are so sure about it. I just hope that you're right. Matt might do anything what is possible, so that you would be kicked out of the business and there is Hunter too." Shawn said worried.

"Nikki won't like this…" Dave warned. "When she watches the show and sees what is happening, you can be sure that we will both get quite a lecture. You because, you are putting your career on the line here, and I because I let you do that. And poor Shawn..." Dave turned his a bit amused gaze to Shawn, who grimaced.

"I don't even dare to think that."

"I have to go to lockerroom before my match." Amy stated and stood up from Shawns lap." Cross your finger for me."

Shawn stood up as well and hugged and kissed her.

"Be careful." He said quietly and looked when Amy left the room Randy close behind.

When Amys match started, Dave, Jeff, Stacy and Shawn were watching it at Jeffs lockerroom. Randy had disappeared somewhere and Dave had wondered it a little, but didn'tthink about it at that moment.

The match was first quite equal, but soon everyone saw that Dawn was getting tired and Amy got the advantage. In the middle of the match it happened, what everyone in the lockerroom had feared, Matt appeared to ringside. He didn't waist any time and threw the chair to Dawn Marie, who hit Amy to back and covered her. Everyone held their breath, and when Amy got her shoulder up before the referee had counted to three, mutual sigh of relief was echoing inside the lockerroom. Then Dave turned to Shawn.

"You should go help her. She can't beat both Matt and Dawn alone."

"Maybe you're right. But if Hunter and Matt guess that we are together again." Shawn answered thoughtfully.

"Forget Matt and Hunter. Amy is now most important, you don't want that she is fired, do you?" Dave snapped.

Then the door flew open and Randy ran in.

"Shawn, why you are still here? Can't you see that Amy is in trouble?" He practically yelled and continued. "Don't worry about Hunter, he can't intervene in this."

Shawn glanced at Dave, who nodded and Jeff snapped.

"Go already."

Shawn ran out of the room and Dave and Randy walked after him

When Shawn ran to ring, where Amy was already in big trouble, but she still did fight against both, Matt and Dawn. Dave and Randy stood behind the curtains. They watched how Shawn surprised Matt and Dawn and maybe a bit Amy aswell. Suddently the match was Amy and Shawn against Dawn Marie and Matt, but it didn't seem to disturb Bischoff, because he didn't come to stop the fight.

Suddently Dave remembered Hunter and glanced to Randy.

"I wonder where Hunter is?"

"I think that he is laying on his lockerroom floor wondering, that what in the earth hit on his back of the head." The younger man answered grinning and when Dave looked at his questioningly, he continued. "I happened to heard when he planned with Matt, how they will intervene in Amys match and I hit him with chair. I didn't have time to prevent Matt though, because I couldn't find him."

Dave looked at him for a moment and started to laugh.

"Good work, Randy. But you should have come to fetch me."

"I didn't have time, but it did come to my mind." Randy grinned.

They watched when Shawn did his super kick to Dawn and obstructed Matt so, that he couldn't prevent Amy, who covered Dawn Marie. When referee had counted to three, she stood up and jumped on Shawns arms despite that Matt saw that, she just didn't care about it at that moment. Then Bischoff stepped behind the curtains and said the words, which made Amy very happy.

"Dawn Marie, you are fired."

Dawn started to scream like mad woman and tried to attack Amy, who was just leaving the ring behind Shawn, she thought got out of the way, and pushed Dawn to Matt. Shawn took her arm and led her to backstage, where they saw Dave and Randy and Jeff, who was coming running towards them. When he was at their side, he took Amy to a tigh hug.

"I was scared before Shawn came to help you. And when he run out of the room, Nikki called me and shouted at the top of her lungs, didn't make me feel any better."

"Ah, Nikki called you?" Dave looked a bit amused the blue haired man.

"Yeah, she did. And I can warn both of you." Jeff looked at both, Amy and Dave. "She will call you too."

Amy went first to first aid to patch few cuts and their trainer looked at her knee, which had had quite a hard blow, but he didn't see any bigger injury on it. Then she went to lockerroom to change her clothes and watched at the same time, how Benoit was wrestling against Hunter on last match of that evening. Suddently Dave appeared to the ringside. Amy wasn't surprised though, because she knew that it would happen. Dave grinned mockingly to Hunter when Benoit took him on painful sharpshooter. After the match Dave got to the ring and did Batista Bomb to Hunter while Benoit celebrated his win.

After the show Amy, Shawn, Jeff and Lilian were leaving the arena, when Shawn lifted Amy up to his arms.

"Shawn, what are you doing?" She giggled. "I can walk by my self."

"You injured your knee, it is better that you don't strain it." He answered when he carried her to the parking place.

"I didn't injure it so badly. I can walk."

"Amy, don't argue. Just enjoy when that kind of handsome man is carrying you." Lilian giggled reseiving a glance from Jeff.

"And I want to carry you. To celebrate your win over Dawn." Shawn stated.

"We can celebrate it in hotel also…" Amy laughed.

"So we will do."

Shawn let her down when they were by the car. When they were pulling out of the parking place, Amys mobile chirped and when she saw the name which was blinking on the display, she sighed and answered then.

"Hey, Nikki."

"Amy Dumas, what the hell were you thinking?" Came the fierce voice of Nicolette from the other side of the line so loud, that Shawn who sat next to Amy, began smile widely. Amy sighed for the second time and started to calm her angry sister down.
