"Thank you for coming with me, Dave... I know you were busy talking to the guys and all..." Dawn trailed off slowly, carefully pushing a strand of hair out of her eyes as she walked beside him, down the hallway of the arena.
"It's really not a big deal, Dawn." Dave answered after a moment, offering a smile in her direction. "So what's this all about; what's going on?" He
inquired, studying her closely as they continued down the long hallway.
Dawn shook her head after a short moment, her heels clicking against the
hard surface before she spoke softly, glancing around at the wandering
superstars. "Not here, Dave."
After a short moment, she took hold of Dave's hand and slipped out the back exit of the arena. "Out here?" Dave gave her a surprised, confused look.
"Yeah, what I have to talk to you about... it's not exactly something I want
spreading around the locker room." She explained, walking to her rental vehicle and unlocking it before climbing inside because of the cold wind
blowing harshly against their bodies.
Dawn shivered as she started the car, looking over at him and blowing on
her hands.
"So, then... what's this about?"
"It's about Lisa." Dawn explained after a moment before pushing the misbehaving strand of hair behind her ear once again. "I'm worried about
her. I didn't want to go to Paul, and... well, I trust you."
"Why are you worried about her?" Dave's forehead creased instantly, his eyes resting intently on hers. It wasn't normal for Dawn to come to him for anything, not that he minded. But it wasn't normal for her to voice such
concerns.
"Scott was in the locker room today... with Lisa." Dawn began, a frown
instantly overcoming her pretty features.
"Scott... as in Scott Steiner?" Dave asked carefully after a long moment,
when Dawn hadn't continued to explain why he was there.
"Yeah. Scott Steiner." Dawn nodded, rubbing her hands together, waiting for
the heat inside of the rental to kick in.
"I'm sure he was just waiting for Randy..." Dave began, trailing off; unsure
as to why this was such a big deal.
"He was holding her arm, tightly at that, she looked upset... I just—" Dawn
ran her hands through her hair roughly before continuing to speak. "He finally left when I told him to go. I asked her what he was bothering her about, and she just said that he was just generally bothering her—and she
was lying."
"How do you know that she was lying?" Dave asked softly, his eyes resting
intently on hers.
"It was in her eyes. She's not a very good liar." She explained after a short pause before continuing. "After he left... I found a bruise on her arm, Dave." Dawn told him quietly, dropping her face into her hands, exhaling
heavily, feeling Dave run a hand reassuringly over her back.
"From Scott?" Dave asked, his voice taking a deep, concerned tone.
Obviously someone had hurt Lisa. And she was a friend... he would do
something about it.
"She said it was from Scott." Lisa spoke after a minute. "But I don't think it was. It wasn't fresh... maybe a day or two old. And he grabbed her from
behind... the markings on the bruise were from the other direction."
"So if it wasn't Scott... who was it?" Dave's forehead instantly creased.
"I—I'm not sure yet. I thought that, maybe... you could help me find out."
Dawn spoke after a moment, looking into his eyes hopefully.
Dave slowly melted at the look in her eyes. She was so beautiful. He exhaled slowly before speaking. "Yeah, yeah... I'll help you, but what can I
do?"
"Talk to Randy?" She suggested softly. "If I were to approach Randy and try to talk to him, he'd probably freak out—as would I. But if you talked to
Randy... you're a lot calmer than I am, and you and Randy are at least
acquaintances, due to Evolution..." She trailed off slowly.
"Alright..." Dave nodded, forming the resolve to figure out who had hurt Lisa... and to find out if there were more bruises where that one had come from. They would find who did this, and they would ultimately stop Lisa's
pain.
Dawn nodded, placing a gentle kiss on Dave's cheek. "And one more thing,
Dave... you can't tell Paul."
"What? Why not? He cares about that girl so much..."
Dawn sighed softly as she nodded. "I know he does, Dave. You'd have to be blind to not see how much her cares about Lisa; she's like a sister to him. But... things aren't good with them right now, and I think it would worsen
the situation. Please, Dave..." She pleaded softly.
And silently, Dave nodded, agreeing not to leak out any information to
Paul.
*******************
"So what was so important that you made he stay at the arena after I
could've left?" Randy asked Scott slowly, rubbing his temples, already having showered and changed back into his street clothes. He raked a hand through his water soaked hair, his eyes landing on Scott Steiner, who was
still in his attire.
"I needed to talk to you about that woman of yours."
"This is about Lisa?" Randy's eyebrow raised slowly in interest. He crossed
his arms over his chest. "What'd she do now?"
"Last night I saw her in front of the women's locker room. With Paul." He
stated, carefully emphasizing the last part.
"She was with Paul?" Randy nearly growled, clenching his fist slowly,
feeling anger begin to rise. She'd disobeyed him again, this time after promising not to see him again. This time, he would really make her pay.
More than she ever had before.
He wasn't playing games, and she would learn that very soon.
"Hey ba—" Lisa began, instantly stopping, not allowing her eyes to widen as she saw Scott and Randy in the locker room. There was only one thing that
they could be talking about. He was reporting back to Randy. Shit.
There was no escaping her fate now.
