Chapter 7

"This Is How I Go"

Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived in Honolulu, Hawaii. Please remain seated and thank you for flying with us.

"Yeah!" Kurt Angle exclaims nearby as everyone in the plane started clapping their hands. John then slowly flutters his eyes open after a few hours of sleep. He noticed everyone else getting up as he looks over at Trish who was sleeping peacefully against the window. She slept the whole way and he figured she didn't get enough sleep with all the autograph sessions and houseshows that filled her busy schedule. John smiled at how peaceful and beautiful she looked. Gently nudging her shoulder, he started waking her up. "Hey, Trish," He hisses as she slowly begins to fidget, "we're here now." She rubs her eyes and yawns in fatigue. "Rise and shine, beautiful."

Trish looks at him and groans reluctantly. "Did I sleep this whole time?"

"Yup," he smirks noticing how hot she still looked even after a whole day. After another big yawn, Trish unbuckles her seatbelt putting in the effort to stay awake.

"God, it feels so damn good to sleep."

John looks at her and chuckles. "Yeah, I know what you mean." The plane finally made its full stop as passengers and a few of the WWE superstars began collecting their things from the compartments. John rises up from his seat as he begins taking out his black duffle bag and Trish's luggage. "Thanks…" She smiles sweetly at him as they both stood on the isle. Slowly, they began walking towards the exit.

"Hey, Trish." She heard someone call from the other side as the blonde turned her head.

"Oh hey, Aimes." Trish looks from Amy to Adam and smiles. "So did you two get enough sleep?"

"Not really." The redhead groans despondently. "Adam kept snoring the whole time."

"Did not!" He argues back as Trish and John looked at him and laughed.

"But anyway, I'm stoked to go to the beach today."

"The beach?" John raises his eyebrows at Amy.

"Yeah, it's a diva swimsuit photoshoot thing." Trish responds with a yawn.

"Damn…" he blurted out, "so I guess we won't meet till tomorrow's Raw taping."

Trish furrowed her eyebrows. "No…I guess not…"

"Well, that's cool. You do your thing. Maybe we can talk about it before the show."

She nods and weakly smiles, "okay."

They watched on as John Cena walks to the opposite direction and Adam heading over to the baggage claim area with Kurt Angle, Chris Masters, Carlito, The Big Show, Ashley, and Victoria trailing behind.

Trish bit her lip as she turns to Amy who was giving her the look that always meant trouble. After awhile, it eventually got in her nerves. "What?"

"Hmmm..." she smirks, lifting her eyebrows, "it looks to me that someone may have the hots for you, Trish."

She places her hands on her hips. "Enlighten me, who?"

"John Cena."

She groans resentfully, followed by a roll to the eyes. "Oh no, not you too."

"So I guess we won't meet till tomorrow's Raw taping. Maybe we can talk about it after the show." Amy quotes John's every word in a rather mocking tone. The blonde Canadian averts from her gaze and sighs. "Come on, Trish it's kind of obvious."

"He wants us to meet before the show, what's the big deal in that?"

"John sounds eager don't you think?"

"It's just a storyline, Amy."

The redhead rolls her eyes, "sure whatever."

"Amy!"

She turns back around and chuckles. "What?"

"You know IF he does have a thing for me it's gonna be your fault!"

"My fault?"

Trish nods her head. "Yup! That's right, girlfriend. You're fault."

"What does this have anything to do with me?"

She laughs. "Ha, well let's see. First you tell me to not be so nice to him because 'I tend to show my soft side and guys get the wrong idea' and then later you tell me 'I'm being hard on him.' You know, you're confusing me here, Amy."

She looks at her blonde friend and chuckles. "And I can't believe you actually listened to me."

Trish's mouth fell open as she smacks her lightly on the shoulder. "Amy, I'm serious here."

"Relax!" She smirks. "We have a photoshoot coming up and you don't want to catch any wrinkles so lighten up." Amy throws an arm around her best friend while Trish sends her a nasty glare. "But I still think he likes you."

She groans and rolls her eyes at the thought. The last thing Trish wanted was someone that would get in the way with her priorities, especially a guy like John Cena. She made it perfectly clear that their relationship was strictly business, but now she's afraid that she may be giving John the wrong signals.

"Girl, don't trip about it. You and I get to finally spend some time together today."

This made Trish finally ease up and smile. Lately, Trish and Amy haven't spending a lot of time together. Sure they see each other from time to time being on the same show; however now that Amy is currently with Adam Trish tends to stay away. She knew how much they really love each other and how much they can't stand being away, which gave her the reasons to back off. But then again Trish did miss their times together. It's always been Trish and Amy. Whenever one of the WWE superstars sees one of them, they're pretty sure the other is somewhere close by. They were an inseparable duo. Even when Amy was dating Matt and Trish with Jeff at the time, the four of them were just so close that they went everywhere together and traveled together. Trish missed those days and so did Amy…but things did change so drastically that it affected their friendship.

Although Trish is friends with Adam, she didn't think he and Amy would be capable of hurting Matt the way they did. It broke her heart to see Matt in so much pain and her best friend to even have the audacity to cheat on him. At that time, Trish and Amy started to grow apart. She didn't know who Amy was anymore. There used to be a lot of drama stirring backstage. Unfortunately the situation got to a lot of people including Trish. However, it didn't stop the two from being the best of friends. Trish was one of the only people that stood by Amy and helped her go through such a difficult time. Although she didn't approve of what Amy and Adam have done, she was rather sincere about it and is willing to help her out the best she can. Afterall…Amy has been there for Trish with the whole Jeff situation.

As the two begin to exit the airport they spotted Ashley, Victoria, Candice, Maria, and Torrie standing nearby in front of their limo. Once Trish and Amy made it outside, all eyes fell on them.

"Hey, well there they are!" Victoria exclaims as the limo driver walks over to the back of the limo and kindly opens the door for the ladies.

"Finally!" Torrie stood between Trish and Amy while wrapping her arms around the both of them. "Today is our day, girls!"

"Yeah!" They cheered on excitedly as they enter the limo one by one. Once everyone was inside, the limo started taking off. Amy sat near the door, next is Trish, Torrie, Ashley, Maria, Candice and Victoria.

"Drinks, ladies?" Victoria takes out a bottle of champagne from the ice box as Candice hands the tall glasses to the other divas inside the limo. As soon as their glasses were all filled, they tapped their glasses together and began drinking up.

"So, Trish." All eyes turn to the Canadian blonde as grins crossed their faces. She furrowed her eyebrows at them awkwardly while gulping down her drink. "What's the gossip?"

"What gossip?"

The divas exchange looks and giggled. "Hello? You and Cena?" Torrie smirked as Trish rolled her eyes, placing her glass down. "Looks to me you two are getting pretty close."

"Uh huh," the others nodded their heads in agreement.

"Guys, it's only a storyline."

"Just a storyline?" Trish turns to Ashley who was giving her a mischievous smirk.

"So what you had with Jeff and Chris was just a storyline?" Amy added as her best friend shot her a dirty look.

"That was different. I was attractive to Jeff before we were in a storyline together."

"Then what about Chris?"

Trish just rolled her eyes. She was beginning to grow irritated with the questions her friends were throwing at her. "Just because Chris and I became more than just friends while working on a storyline together doesn't mean it's going to happen with me and John."

"And why not?"

"I told you guys a million times. John is not my type. So stop getting ideas about us getting together because it's not happening!"

"Okay, okay. We'll stop." Torrie frowns as it became obvious to them that Trish was beginning to get aggravated. Silence suddenly fell upon them as they peered at each other from the corner of their eyes.

"But I still think he likes you." Amy muttered playfully forcing Trish to elbow her sides and smack her lightly with a small pillow. The girls around them watched on and laughed.


Meanwhile, at the beaches of the Hawaiian Islands, it was pretty sunny but nonetheless breezy during this time of the year. The divas were all dressed in their bikinis taking solo pictures as well as group photos for the upcoming WWE Raw Diva issue for 2006. After doing a few interviews for the upcoming WWE Diva DVD, the camera men began to take pictures of the divas racing towards the water and wrestling each other down to the ground and striking a few poses while smiling for the camera. After two hours, the divas finally get to settle down for the rest of the day as a few went to take a swim while others lay down under the sun to get a tan. Trish and Amy, on the other hand, headed over to the hotel they were staying in near the beaches to get out of there swimsuits and something more comfortable before heading back outside.

After a quick shower, Amy changed into a cute mini faded jean skirt with a sexy, revealing black tube top while Trish wore a light blue mini jean skirt (similar to Amy's but with two small slits on both sides and lighter) along with a halter top that revealed a bit of her belly button. Once they applied a touch of make up and sunscreen, the two grabbed their purses and left their hotel room. As soon as they reached the lobby, Trish and Amy walked out of the elevator wearing sunglasses when unexpectedly Adam, John, Chris Masters, and Kurt approached them from the other side of the foyer.

"Back from the gym already?" Amy grinned as she plants a sweet kiss on Adam's lips. As the two begin to cuddle up, John finds himself peering at Trish from the corner of his eye. He couldn't help but notice how hot she looked in a mini skirt and halter top. 'Damn,' Cena thought as he looked away before anyone else noticed.

"So why are you guys here so early?" Trish wonders out of curiosity.

"Chris and I have an autograph signing to go too in about half an hour." Kurt answers as they begin walking towards the elevators.

"Okay," Trish smiles while waving towards their direction, "later." She turns to John awkwardly, now that it was just them and the two love birds whom can't seem to get their hands off each other. Trish and John exchange looks as they rolled their eyes.

"Adam, sorry to disappoint you but today is our day." The blonde says while pulling Amy away from his grasp.

He frowns. "Where are you two heading to?"

"The beach," Amy responds while locking arms with her best friend.

"Cool, let's say we all hit the beach and play some volleyball." Adam suggested as he takes out a beach volleyball from his gym back. Trish and Amy looked at each other and laughed.

"What?" John shot them a dirty look. "What's so funny?"

"Why would we waste our girl time to play volleyball with you guys?"

"Because you love me," Adam responds staring at Amy with a wide grin. She rolled her eyes. "Please?"

"Adam, it's cool." John crosses his arms and smirks. "The ladies are just too chicken to play with the big boys. Let them be."

Trish and Amy dropped their jaws and glared dreadfully at his direction. "Whoa now, hold up." The Canadian blonde steps forward in front of the champ and beams coldly at him, "First of all, Cena…I suggest you play with your boys instead and save yourself the embarrassment. You wouldn't want to get your ass kicked in beach volleyball by two divas."

He reveals his cocky smile as John and Adam share a hysterical laugh. Trish and Amy exchanged looks while rolling their eyes.

"You two actually think you can beat us?"

"Um hello," Amy waves a hand in the air, "I was on the volleyball team in my high school and I'm pretty darn good at it."

"Well yeah I can see that, but Trish…" John turns to the blonde, "no offenses but you're kind of short to reach over the net." Adam snickered silently from behind as Amy elbowed him on the side. Trish narrowed her eyes at Cena scornfully, their contact growing with intense as Amy darted her eyes between the two.

"You want to play?" Trish scoffs as she snatched the ball away from Adam's grasp. A playful smirk crept over Amy's face, knowing exactly what Trish is thinking at that very moment. "I'm game. Bring it on!"


At the beach, the net was already set up as Trish and Amy stayed on one side with John and Adam on the opposite side of the net. The guys took off their shirts and wore nothing but swimming trunks as they get in a ready position.

"Ladies first," John grins arrogantly while throwing the ball over the net. Amy catches it as she turns to Trish and gives her the nod. The redhead then serves the ball over the net. John smoothly bumps the ball off his forearm allowing Adam to set it up in the air for John to spike it down. As soon as he successfully spiked it over the net, Trish immediately dived to the ground to make the save.

"Yeah!" Amy yelled out excitedly as she comes to her aid and hits the ball over the net. Adam this time bumps it over back to them as Trish quickly rises up to set the ball allowing Amy to spike it hard over the net. John tries to make the save but then couldn't make it in time as it rolled over to the side. Trish and Amy celebrated their first point as they jumped into each other arms.

"What the hell was that?" John thought in disbelief as he turns to Adam shrugging his shoulders. "Oh it's on now." There was determination all over his face as he gets back up in a ready position.

Trish ducks under the net for a better look at them as she sticks her tongue out playfully. "Looks can be deceiving huh? Did I forget to mention that I was a tomboy growing up playing all sorts of sports?"

John shot her a dirty look. "It's okay, man." Adam pats his partner on the back while massaging his shoulders. "We'll get them."

"Don't hold back now," Amy grins from the other side of the net as the girls get in a ready stance. "First team with 15 points wins. Oh, and it's our serve." John glares at them as he reluctantly throws the ball over the net.

Half an hour has passed and the game has gotten interesting as the other divas and a few of the other guys coming from the gym stopped by to watch. The game was all tied up now 14-14 and it is the guys' serve. Both sides were looking very tired as they constantly took heavy breaths and poured bottles of water over their heads.

"Come on, girls!" Torrie cheered on to support her divas. "You can do it!"

"Don't disappoint us, Cena." The other guys said from the opposite side. "You too, Adam, I have my eye on you." Dave Batista says in amusement. He couldn't believe they were getting their asses kicked by the two dominating divas in the WWE. Dave expected his boys to own the game, but is rather impressive with Trish and Amy's skills.

"We got this, Adam." John says as he waits for his partner to serve the ball. "We just need one more point, dawg."

"Okay, no need to add the pressure here." He retorts nervously as the girls put their game faces on. Trish and Amy may be gorgeous women, but their looks were so deadly in their ready stance that it made John and Adam feel slightly intimidated by them. With one deep and long breath, Adam finally releases the ball up in the air and hits it over the net. The divas and a few of the WWE superstars that were there held their breaths as they kept their eye on the ball. Trish was the first to receive it as she bumps it over to Amy. The redhead hits it over to Trish as the blonde gets ready to set it up for Amy. Amy then bents over in a prep position as she jumped up as high as her legs could take her. John and Adam closed in as they both jump up and followed her every move in attempt to block the shot. Once she made the spike, John and Adam both hit it over the net. Trish makes the dive and surprisingly saves it.

"Yeah!" The girls screamed excitedly as the guys watches on in disbelief.

Trish and Amy began playing with the ball as they continue to bump it to each other several times to keep the ball alive. Trish then sets it up once again allowing Amy to fly up in the air and spike the ball on the opposite side. John makes the block as the ball comes flying towards Adam's direction. Trish and Amy parted from the net as they get ready to dive in for the ball. As soon as Adam sets it, John jumps up and makes the fake as he lightly hits the ball over the net causing Trish and Amy to be taken by surprise as collide on the ground and watched the ball roll over.

"Fuck yeah!" John threw his hands up in the air in triumph as Adam and the guys celebrated their win. "WHOOOOO!"

Trish and Amy frown disappointingly at the lost as they helped each other rise to their feet. Torrie, Victoria, Maria, Candice and Ashley then slowly walked over to them for encouragement. "You ladies did great out there." Victoria commented as she places both hands on their shoulders. "I'm proud of you, girls. Although you two lost, just remember…you made the guys sweat nervously!"

Trish and Amy both smiled at the thought. "Yeah, I guess we made them squirm a bit.

"I mean did you see the look on John's face when Trish made that dive and saved the ball from hitting the ground!" Torrie exclaims. "That was hot, Trish."

"Hot indeed," a deep familiar voice says from behind as Trish furrowed her eyebrows and looks over her shoulder. A smile suddenly crept over her face at the sight of him. "You never told me you can volleyball."

"Who says I have to tell you everything?" She smirks as she runs towards him with arms wide open. The divas looked at each other and began parting ways as Amy approaches Adam. "It's good to see you." The two share a warm hug as they broke apart and smiled at each other. "So what are you doing here, Randy?"

"I just flew in from Smackdown. I'm on break for a few days so I thought I chill out here with the cool people in RAW."

"Hey, Randy." John removed himself from the crowd of guys while making his way over to them. The two guys share a quick hug. "Can't get enough of me huh?"

Randy Orton just rolled his eyes. "Yeah, whatever buddy." John smirks as he shifts his gaze from Randy to Trish.

"Good game, Stratus." He extends his hand out to show his sportsmanship. Trish looks down at his open hand reluctantly and takes it with her own. "I gotta give you props. You and Amy both got game."

"Well thank you. You're not bad yourself…" she pauses in mid-sentence and continues, "Although I did kind of expect you to own the game considering the fact that you and Adam are much stronger than us."

"Yeah but you and Amy are lighter and faster…so you girls had more of an advantage."

"Whatever, I'm disappointed in you, Cena." Trish playfully smirks as John furrowed his eyebrows. "You almost got beat by divas." Randy chuckled allowing John to shot him a dirty look. "Anyway, I should change." She noticed the WWE divas heading over to the hotel as the sun begins to set over the horizon.

"Where you going?" John asks out of curiosity as she begins walking towards their direction.

"Out to eat with girls. I'll see you two later."

John nods his head as he and Randy both wave goodbye. Randy then peers at John from the corner of his eye and noticed his best friend grinning with his eyes still fixed on Trish as she enters the hotel. Randy looks away and slightly chuckles. "I see that you and Trish are getting along…" John just shrugged his shoulders in response. "Do you like her?" Randy smirks.

"She's aiite."

"No, I mean do you like her like her?" He questioned as he waits for John's answer. "And don't lie to me."

John pursed his lips and sighs. "I don't know…" there was a small pause, "I guess I do."

"Ha!" Randy pointed a finger at him and laughed. "I knew it."

"I'm going to pound your ass if you tell anyone about this."

"Don't worry; your secret is safe with me."

"I'm serious, dawg. I know you and Trish are pretty close so you better not be saying shit!"

Randy nods his head in agreement. He can't seem to wipe the smirk of his face as John narrows his eyes at him. "You know, I saw this coming."

"Man, whatever. You don't need to rub it in."

"So why do you like her?"

John shrugged his shoulders again. He felt all of a sudden nervous just talking about it. "It's nothing serious. I mean yeah I'm attracted to her."

"Why?"

He groans irritably. "Man dawg, why you have to keep asking me these questions? You did not fly all the way here from across the pacific just to ask me did you?"

Randy chuckles. "Alright, I'll stop."

"Thank you."

"So what's the agenda for Raw?" He curiously asks, now talking business.

"I think Trish and Lita have a match for the women's title."

"Who wins?"

"Lita," John responds thinking back on the script, "Edge ends up being the guest referee. They do more damage on Trish and that's when I come out."

"Like her knight in shining armor," Randy murmured jokingly allowing John to scowl at him.

"Oh shut up."

"You know you like it."

John deeply sighs as he puts Randy in a headlock.


A/N: uh oh...lol. Please review. Thanks!
