Chapter 5: "Caught!"
"Hey! Wake up, lazy ass!" Shawn picks up a pillow and hits Lita in the head, waking her up.
"Jesus friggin' Christ, Shawn!" Lita sits up suddenly, holding her chest. "Don't give me a heart attack!"
"Ha ha, just having a bit of fun!" Shawn holds the pillow from behind him.
"Oh, yeah?" Lita picks up her pillow, and stands up on her bed. "You want fun? You'll get fun!" Lita leaps onto Shawn's bed and hits him in the shoulder.
Shawn acts like he got shot, and falls off his bed onto the floor. "Ahhh!"
Lita jumps off the bed and stands over his body. "Now, you're dead!" Lita hits him multiple times with her pillow.
Shawn grabs her legs and tackles her, knocking her down. "Take that!"
"Ow!" Lita bumps her head on the floor.
Shawn sits up and checks her. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Lita smiles and fixes her hair.
They both stand up, and hear a knock on their door. They look at each other confusingly, and Shawn walks to the door and opens it.
"Hey!" Christian grins.
Christian, Chris Jericho, Edge, Trish Stratus, and Triple H all walk into the room, but everyone freezes at once, wondering what the hell is going on! They all look at one another.
"Now this is different." Triple H, laughs.
"What's going on? It looks like a love fest!" Chris Jericho laughs also.
"Heh, heh. Are you two a couple now?" Trish places her hands on her hips.
"No, no. This is just a misunderstanding." Lita nervously explains, as she tosses her pillow on her bed.
"Yeah," Shawn smiles and walks up to the small group. "You see, I forgot my wallet at home, and…, uh, well, I stayed here with Lita." He makes up an excuse.
"I smell bullshit!" Edge jokes.
"No, really, that's what happened." Lita walks up to them.
"Then why did I see your wallet on the floor of the locker room last night?" Christian crosses his arms.
"…" Shawn swallows his lie down his throat. "Err…uh… hmmm…"
"Hey, Shawn, I need to talk to you in private for a second. That is why I came up here." Triple H grabs Shawn's arms and walks him outside the room.
"So what's going on?" Trish asks.
"It's nothing. We're just friends." Lita admits.
"It looks like sparks are flying." Chris Jericho comments.
"It's pretty obvious." Trish smiles.
"You think so?" Lita sighs. "I…uh…"
"Oh, my." Trish looks at the guys.
"I don't know." Edge scratches the back of his head. "He… you…"
"What?" Lita blinks and looks at Edge.
"What he's trying to say, is that you two are so different." Christian finishes.
"I don't think so." Lita rubs her left arm.
"Shawn, is Shawn. Lita… you're you. You two are different. Trust us." Trish tries to explain.
"I like him…I think it can work." Lita smiles.
"We're just letting you know." Trish pats Lita on her shoulder.
Lita takes a deep breath. "What brings you all here anyways?"
"You missed the party last night!" Chris Jericho squeals. "It was so awesome! Kane got so drunk off his ass." He laughs.
"Dude, you two should have been there. Jeff and Matt really got into it." Christian says. "They actually started fist fighting!"
"Yeah, it took me, Christian, Jericho, Booker T., Undertaker, Triple H and Carlito to get them separated." Edge explains.
"Are you serious!" Lita asks, in shock. "What were they fighting about?"
"Something about Matt meeting this new chick, and Jeff was saying that he was with her." Christian says.
"They were really drunk, too." Trish rolls her eyes and smiles.
"Wow…" Lita nods.
Meanwhile…
"What the hell, man! Lita!" Triple H freaks out.
"What about her? We're friends." Shawn shrugs.
"What a big fucking lie!" Triple H keeps himself from yelling. "You… what about your wife! Your kids, man!"
"Come on, Paul. We just got reacquainted last night." Shawn stares at the floor.
"You two are more than friends. I know it. I know you." Triple H points at him.
"My wife and I are split up, and eventually getting divorced. Honestly, I am not happy about it at all. I love my wife to fucking death, but Paul, in order for a relationship to work, the man and woman both need to love one another. She doesn't love me, she proved that. She lost her chance. I don't like it, but I must move on." Shawn continues to explain. "My children are old enough to understand it."
"Do you think it'll work?" Triple H asks.
"What?" Shawn asks, acting dumb.
"You and Lita. You two as a couple." Triple H answers.
"I don't know. We haven't got that far." Shawn shrugs.
"Do you like her?" Triple H asks.
"Maybe. I think she is my type. She laughs at all my jokes. I like making her smile, man." Shawn smiles.
"That look in your eyes. You do like her." Triple H crosses his arms.
"Hell, I may even be in love with her." Shawn crosses his arms also.
"I can't believe it. I'm not keeping you two from each other. I just worry about this. It's just so sudden, man. I don't have a problem with this, I just hope it doesn't affect both your jobs or anything." Triple H says.
"We'll be fine. Even though we're from different generations, I see a piece of fate from her. When I stare into her eyes, I feel so relaxed, and I drift away. It's like looking into a window to her soul. She is so beautiful. We haven't shared a kiss yet, but I imagine what it'd be like." Shawn becomes all googly-eyed.
Triple H laughs. "You're such a teenager, man."
Shawn starts to laugh. "I knew I could make you laugh."
Triple H and Shawn hug, and everyone walks out to the hallway.
"Later." Christian and Edge say at the same time.
"See ya." Shawn waves.
Triple H, Jericho, Edge, Christian and Trish all walk down the hall, and enter the elevator. Lita looks at Shawn. Shawn looks back at Lita.
"What'd they tell you?" Shawn asks.
"Just about that party last night." Lita answers. "What'd H say?"
"Nothing really. He mentioned about the party, and that we plan on hanging out tomorrow." Shawn replies.
"What are you doing today?" Lita asks, walking back into the room.
Shawn follows, and stuffs his hands into his pockets. "I don't know, maybe going to Georgia. What about you?"
"Oh, same thing. Want to come with me? I'm not into traveling alone." Lita asks.
"Sure." Shawn smiles. "Later, we have to finish that pillow fight." He pokes Lita's chest.
"To be continued!" Lita grins.
