Chapter 1 – Strangers In Our Own Life.
With a heavy push the redhead sighed as she made her way through the double doors of the grand hotel she was currently staying in and outside onto the sidewalk. Her ears were hit with the heavy sound of traffic on the nearby roads and the general hustle and bustle of everyday life around her. Squinting slightly as the bright sun shone into her eyes and the light gust blew her hair from her face. It truly was a beautiful day, but what else could you expect from Miami?
Only for her not even the weather could make this day good nothing was going to bring her mood back up. There were a million things more she'd rather be doing on her day off like shopping, or lounging by the hotel pool, hell even learning her lines for the show. Yet she couldn't do any of that as she'd already promised to squash herself into a car with four other women and drive miles out of state, just to pay thirty dollars to much too some stranger, and what for? To be told a pack of lies.
"Amy come one were going to be late!"
A distant voice broke her thoughts as she looked up and across the street to see a red convertible sports car with a petite brunette sat in the back looking right at her. Her face etched with annoyance. Amy Dumas sighed, this was just what she needed.
"How'd I get persuaded to do this?" she muttered to herself only it wasn't that quiet as the person coming out the hotel behind heard her.
"Same way as me I 'spose and Trish and Vicky," a tall brunette said nodding slightly. "you know we could always make a run for it," she smirked.
"Your joking right Melina's pissed as it is I don't wanna make her worse, need I remind you that I do wanna wrestle again someday," Amy laughed as she place her sunglasses down onto the bridge of her nose. "I guess it's a case of grin and bear it."
Both women exchanged glances that said otherwise but there was truly no way around this. About to say something else Dawn opened her mouth but was quickly cut off.
"Dawn, Amy get your asses over here now!" a distant voice yelled frustrated.
Both women looked back over to the same red sports car that was still parked across the street the same brunette looking even more pissed then five minutes ago.
"I swear I'm going to kill her by the end of the day," Dawn once again muttered.
Quickly with on last long sigh Amy pulled her Channel sunglasses down off the top of her head and onto her eyes then flicked her long hair back and made her way over to the car. Dawn Marie who was also in the same boat as Amy on her opinion of the day slowly made her way behind.
It was no secret neither woman wanted to go on today's escapade. They had both repeatedly made their feelings completely clear on more than several occasions yet somehow someway they found themselves climbing into the car where three more of their fellow Diva's were waiting silently.
"Shouldn't this woman know that were late I mean if she's psychic after all," Amy asked as she climbed in to the passenger side.
"Fortune teller Amy," the aggravated brunette from earlier snapped.
"Yeah but shouldn't she…" Amy began to speak.
"Ames I think it's best you stop I think Mel's about to hit someone," the blonde driver cut in before anything happened.
"Thank you Trish," Melina smiled trying to keep her composure.
"I still don't know how you roped me into this," Dawn said pursing her lips as she slid in next to Melina on the back seat.
"Come on Dawn it'll be fun," said another of the five women sat in the car.
"Vicky if this is your idea of fun you need to get out more," Dawn said her eyebrows raised.
"Okay everyone just let's just try to get along we have a long journey and I am not stopping this car to separate anyone," Trish turned round to look at them as though she was a mother to a group of rowdy children.
After a few under the breath remarks and some rolls of the eyes Trish finally turned back round and started the engine. This was going to be one hell of a day, why did she agree again? The normally safe and cautious women's champion had agreed to do this to as usual keep the peace. At times she seemed to be the only sane one around, something she knew was going to be needed today. She wasn't as dead set against this as Dawn or Amy but she too would rather be doing something else. However as usual she just smiled and went along.
Twenty minutes later all five woman were sat quietly in the car on the freeway. The top was down so the wind was blowing freely over them causing some hair disasters. All that could be heard was the loud bellowing of the radio as no one seemed to want to talk, either in fear of causing a riot or to busy in thought mostly about their destination.
Sat quietly nestled in the back between Victoria and Dawn was Melina Perez the ring leader, the organizer. The one who'd spent hours on the internet researching the woman they were going to see. The one who thought it would be a great idea and had informed the others of their needed participation. The only one who actually thought this a good idea. She'd agreed to herself that it would be the perfect day out, the perfect getaway from the hectic life of a WWE Diva.
All five women had the day off as they were in town for the Royal Rumble which was taking place this Sunday. Since they hardly ever got time off she'd decided it would be fun to spend it together, only her enthusiasm was shared among the group.
"Please tell me were nearly there," Dawn moaned fidgeting in her seat again elbowing Melina for the fourth time knocking the Latina out of her thoughts.
"Were nearly there," Trish replied.
"How long will this Madam Rose…whatever take?" Dawn looked to her left at Melina.
"Rosemoor and I don't know a few hours I guess," Melina shrugged.
"A few hours! What the hell does she need a few hours for?" Amy said shocked turning her head behind her to look at Melina.
"To tell us our futures of course," Victoria always the cheerful one replied smiling.
"Future smuture," Amy muttered once again putting her feet up. "I can't believe your buying into this."
"It's true I swear my aunt Gabrielle went to see her a few years ago and she said she'd come into money and then five months later she won the lottery," Melina said excited.
"Mel she won fifty two dollars," Amy said unimpressed curling her lips.
"Yeah but…" Melina's eyes opened wide, "It happened." Melina nodded to herself pleased. As the others gave disgruntled moans.
"So what does everyone want to know?" Victoria asked still cheerful.
"If my life's ever going to get back to normal soon," Amy sighed she didn't need to elaborate on her sentence as everyone knew what she was referring to.
"I wanna know if I'm going to find love," Victoria said dreamily as she smiled.
"I wanna know why it's costing me thirty bucks," Dawn laughed as she was nudged by Melina.
"I'm just glad we get to spend the day together and have a little fun. It's been so long since we've all been together in the same city and even if this woman is crazy at least we can laugh about it together," Trish said finally.
"I guess," Amy shrugged. "But I still think its crap."
All five broke out into laughter at this as even Melina who just rolled her eyes shaking her head. Soon after conversation picked up again but this time it was just about life in general no mention to a crazy fortune teller. That was until thirty minutes had passed and Trish hit the brakes stopping the car.
All the women inside the car turned to the right to see the house they had parked in front of. It was a large white house with huge bay windows that were dark and a large black double door. The garden was over grown with weeds and unattended shrubs and flowers. To a passerby the house looked as though nobody had lived there for years.
"You sure this is right?" Amy asked sitting straight to get a better view her brow furrowed.
"Yeah it's the address I got here," Trish said unsure as she looked down at the piece of paper in her hand and then back at the others.
"What is it the creepier the house the better the psychic?" Amy said leaning over Trish to get a better look.
"Fortune teller Amy," Melina said loudly.
"Same thing," Amy shrugged waving the comment off.
"Well we can't stay here let's go," Victoria said suddenly as she proceeded to step out the car followed by Melina as the other three women shared an uneasy glance.
Soon enough all five women were out of the car and ready as they stood silently in front of the doors to the house. Melina walked forward out of the group and knocked confidently on the front door. Suddenly it opened revealing a short podgy woman with a pig like nose and large brown eyes. She was wearing a head scarf and matching silk scarf and a long black beaded dress which trailed on the floor as she moved.
Smiling widely she stepped aside and welcomed them into the house, Melina going first. Silently she lead them threw the foyer and into a small darkly lit room with chairs scattered about all the blinds were closed so the only light they had was from candles. A strong scent filled their nostrils one of incense and cats.
The woman turned to them clapping her hands together making them jump slightly, "okay who first?"
All five were quiet as nobody spoke everyone for some reason seemed a little afraid of this old lady. After a few seconds Dawn coughed and strode forward confident as ever.
"I will," she said looking at the other who seemed still like statues.
"Then follow me my dear," the woman motioned with a podgy hand that had fingers that resembled sausages.
Looking round at the other four Dawn pulled a stupid face and then turned round and followed the woman into another dimly lit room. In the centre of the room sat a round table with two chairs either side of it. On the table were tarot cards placed in various positions. The woman motioned for Dawn to sit so after a shaky breath she did.
"Okay shuffle these twice and then hand them to me," the lady asked handing over the tarot cards.
Dawn did as the woman asked and then waited to see what happened next she was actually a little anxious although she would never admit it. The lady quickly dealt the cards in a cross symbol with three more diagonal at the side. She then went silent for a few seconds before making a humming noise and looking up at Dawn.
"Very interesting."
"Okay I'm bursting here I need to know," Victoria said excitedly a large grin across her face.
"Everyone ready?" Trish looked round at the other four women sat at the table.
The five had finished at the fortune tellers and had now made their way to a restaurant as they were all hungry and needed something in their system to get the cat smell out. Since they had left Madam Rosemoor's they had all managed to keep their fortunes to themselves deciding to tell each other over lunch. Finally after they had placed their orders and were about ready to tell some seemed a little more hesitant than others.
"So who's first then?" Trish asked.
"How about miss excited over there," Dawn looked over at Victoria.
All the other woman looked over at the raven haired woman who was smiling obviously having been told good news.
"Okay I'll go," Victoria went quiet a devious grin on her face. "She says…I'm getting married," she almost squealed the last part she was so excited.
Trish almost spat her drink out over Amy, "what!" She spoke for the rest of the group who were all pretty speechless.
"Yeah apparently I'm getting married in the next year," Victoria grinned nodding furiously.
"Did she say who to?" Trish asked intrigued.
Victoria's smile seemed to fade as it was replaced with a thoughtful frown, "no just that I would meet him within the year and that it will be complicated and that I have to let go of my fear…that's about it." She scrunched her nose up and shrugged.
"Your fear?" Amy asked.
"Yeah I'm not sure about that bit," Victoria frowned again as she went quiet.
"What about you this was all your idea so you have to tell us now," Dawn said looking over at Melina.
"I'll go last," Melina said sounding hesitant.
"Fine I'll go then," Amy sighed sitting forward. "She says I'm going to rekindle an old love," Amy said in a tone that sounded bored as she rolled her eyes. "Something I was passionate about in my past and I have to look for it but I'll know when I have it back…I think anyway it was kinda hard to concentrate with the cat smell," she made a scratching noise with her throat.
"So like a boyfriend then?" Victoria asked her eyes wide.
Amy was quite as she shrugged finally. "She didn't know…which makes me think she's lying and its all bullshit."
"You guys got better ones than I did anyway," Dawn sighed. "I'm going to experience a life changing moment." Dawn said her eyes widening at the last part then her lips curling unimpressed.
"That's all?" Trish asked taking a sip of her water.
"Yeah can't believe I forked out thirty bucks on that," Dawn sat back in her chair annoyed.
"That's all she told you?" Victoria didn't look convinced.
"Yeah," Dawn shrugged.
It was obvious to the others that Dawn was keeping something back but as usual the guarded Diva wasn't parting with the information. This being a usual occurrence with the brunette who never completely told people her emotions nobody pushed it. Instead they all looked over at Melina waiting foe her to speak. Melina remained quiet so Trish sighed and sat forward.
"Okay so I'm apparently going to find the love of my live in the next six months," Trish said quickly and before anyone could speak she spoke again. "No wait there's more it gets better," she said sarcastically. "He's going to be someone I already know but have lost touch with," Trish said finally her face not looking so pleased.
Everyone including Trish seemed a little surprised by this as Trish always claimed she was far too picky to find love and that all her old boyfriends just weren't good enough. The thought she was going to find love and with someone she already knew seemed a more than a little far fetched.
"Ooh I wonder who?" Amy said mostly to herself.
"Don't go getting ideas, none of its true anyway," Trish shrugged.
"Why the fuck couldn't I have gotten one like that!" Dawn yelled.
Everyone then looked over at Melina who was still quiet she opened her mouth to speak but then went quiet again. Something was defiantly wrong as this had been her whole idea yet she didn't seem so happy now almost hesitant at sharing her news.
"You okay Mel?" Trish asked breaking the silence.
It was as though her words were some sort of secret password as Melina began to cry suddenly.
"What's the matter?" Trish asked alarmed putting an arm around Melina's shoulders.
"My fortune," Melina said between shaky breathes.
"What about it?" Amy asked.
"She said the only thing she can see in my future is…is death," Melina cried.
A silence covered the table as everyone was a little shocked by Melina's news. Nobody as shocked as Melina who had believed everything the woman told her. Finally Dawn spoke breaking the silence.
"Come on we all know that it's a bunch of bullshit none of these things will come true at the most their lucky guesses," Dawn said tact not being her best asset. Melina shrugged although she continued to cry.
"She's right what are the chances these are going to happen?" Trish said softly trying to make things seem better.
"I don't wanna die," Melina whimpered.
"What type of psychic tells you you're going to die?" Amy asked a little stunned.
"A fraud that's who," Dawn said strongly tutting.
"She's a fortune teller Amy not a psychic." Melina said through her tears.
"Mel you're not going to die and were all not going to get married and fall in love and whatever bullshit she told us," Dawn sighed again sitting back in her chair.
"Dawn you should be taking this seriously what if its true!" Melina yelled loudly her eyes red and puffy but her natural disapproving tone was back.
Dawn rolled her eyes and huffed loudly then stood up from the table pushing her chair back. Looking back down at the other girls she put her hand on her hips.
"I can't believe your buying this. You really believe Vicky's going to get married she doesn't even have a boyfriend or even a possibility of one no offence V but you don't," Dawn looked at the raven-haired woman.
"Nun taken," Victoria shrugged half heartedly as she was currently reading her script for next month.
"And me I'm having a life changing experience…hello everyday is life changing for me I work for Vince McMahon for Christ sake."
"True," Amy nodded.
"Trish can't even decide on a pair of shoes for a night out there is no way she's going to find the love of her life in six months," Dawn yelled pointing to the blonde who nodded.
Dawn breathed in and looked over at Amy, "I think Madam Rose-whatever has been watching too much TV if you ask me she obviously knows what happened with you, Matt and Adam and an old love could be anything like a pair of shoes you lost," Dawn shrugged.
"What about me?" Melina asked her composure finally returned.
"Death…people die everyday so it's the most obvious choice she obviously ran out of lies…trust me there is no way any of that crap she told us is going to happen."
Dawn sighed loudly then collapsed back into the chair she had been sitting at looking tired. It seemed as though her words had worked as the tension seemed to ease slightly and all five women were silent as they just nodded. It seemed she was right and today had been a bad idea.
Just then Victoria who'd been going over next months scripts the whole time looked up at them. "Guy's," she said worried.
Dawn sighed as she sat back down she was beyond frustrated, "what?"
"You know that storyline their putting me in with Christian," she looked round the table. Still silence as everyone was looking right at Victoria who was silent herself a look of anxiety across her face.
"Give me that," Dawn snatched the script out of her hands.
Dawn began to skim read it her eyes darting back and forth before they stopped suddenly. She looked up at Victoria who just nodded.
"What?" Melina yelled annoyed at the silence.
"It says were getting married," Victoria spoke.
