Chapter 3.

When Gaby showed up for the next taping, she was in her tight jeans and a black and burnt orange Orange County Choppers tank top, but had a gym bag with a change of clothes for later in it. She had gone shopping over the last week and had gotten a few outfits that should keep Raven on his toes. She had decided to go clubbing tonight and she was gonna invite AMW, Jarrett, Gail, and Jackie to come with her. Of course she would make sure that Raven not only overheard the invitation, but the name of the club and the time they would leave also.

She had arrived early to help the ring crew guys find a clean mat and attach it before any of the guys wanted to practice for the show. She had stopped at a dry cleaner on her way home last week that was more than happy to do business with the company and the guys had taken the old ring mat there that night after she left.

Gaby helped the ring crew get the new mat on and made sure it was as tight as it needed to be. She walked back up the ramp and saw AMW standing just behind the tunnel. She looked around for Raven, but he was no where to be found. She waved at the guys as she walked past them and headed for catering. There he was sitting with Terry Taylor in the back. She grabbed herself a sandwich and found a seat in his eyesight, and lucky for her, it happened to be next to Rhino.

"Rhino, sorry about that comment I made to Raven last week. I just—he really—I was just pissed at him and I didn't mean it in the way that it sounded.

"It's ok Gaby. I understand. Don't feel bad, you aren't the only woman I know that doesn't want me like that."

"Rhino." Gaby sighed. "I really am sorry."

"HEY!" A voice from behind her shouted. "You, go help the ring crew guys fix the chairs."

"Larry, she does have a name."

"Yeah well she answers to hey you, so I guess I don't need to know it." Gaby sighed again and headed down to the ring. She saw Raven in the ring and her eyes locked on him as he practiced his drop toe hold. Damn. He is so fucking hot. Why does he have to be such an ass? She separated the metal barricades and started fixing the chairs. Every so often she would look up and catch a glimpse of Raven.

"Scott." Larry called as he walked down the ramp. "Change of plans. You aren't on the show tonight. Sorry man." He said as he turned and left the same way he came.

Raven picked up the chair he had in the ring and flung it into the open arena narrowly missing Gaby's head as it flew in her direction.

"Hey! Watch where you are throwing shit! Are you trying to take me out?" Gaby yelled at him. "Shit!" She turned around to get the chair he threw since it messed up a section of the seating that she had just fixed. Raven climbed out of the ring and stood next to the barricade. Gaby fixed the section of chairs and looked back to see Raven still standing there. She looked at him for a few seconds before speaking.

"Is there something you need, or are you planning to throw the barricade at me as well?" She asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I wasn't throwing it at you. I was just throwing it. How can they cut me out of another show? This is bullshit! This is three fucking weeks in a row!"

"So because he says you aren't gonna be on the show, you just bow and say ok? Where is the Raven who would do a run in any damn way just to spite him?"

"I guess I could. I am just so pissed that they are doing this to me again!"

"This is kinda like when you got banished to Sunday Night Heat, huh? If it's any consolation at all, your drop toe hold is looking really good." Gaby replied.

Raven laughed a little. "Thanks. Well, I guess I will let you do your job. See you later." Gaby was starting to feel a little bad about her previous plans she had. Maybe she wouldn't go through with them. Raven walked off upset and headed to his locker room to hang out with Terry Taylor.

A/N: Crap! I hit a wall. I had an idea and it has left me so now I have no idea where to take it from here. RAVEN BEAT A1 AT SACRIFICE! YAY! R & R please!
