Part 1: Twisted Kicks.


"Why the hell are you bitching at me?" Matt screeched at his girlfriend.

"You still carry that skank's picture around…why Matt? I thought you loved me?"

Matt laughed.

"It takes a skank to know a skank Ash…and no, I never loved you…you were just a replacement for her…and a bad one at that."

"Well why don't you drag your ass back to her then? That's if she'll even have you…"

"Have a nice life Ash…don't bother running after me, you might hurt yourself." He laughed and walked out of her house, slamming the door behind him.

Lita walked into the locker room she would be sharing with Edge and threw her bag down on the floor as she sat down, the blond Canadian quickly doing the same.

"What are ya up to this afternoon?" Edge asked.

"I dunno…I might go and annoy John for a bit later…"

"Sounds like fun…"

"Hey, you promised to be nice to him remember…he didn't mean to scratch your car…"

"I guess…and I did already get him back for that…" he grinned wickedly.

"I still can't believe you put those pictures on the internet…"

"Ah yes, in every corner of the world right now someone is looking at pictures of Cena in a dress and make up…"

"How did you guys get him drunk enough to do that anyway?"

"I could tell you…but then I'd have to kill ya…" he laughed, the redhead stuck her tongue out at him.

Her phone started ringing and as it was somewhere near the bottom of her bag it took her a few seconds to find it. This did not make Edge a happy boy, her ring tone was Beep by the Pussy Cat Dolls and he hated it. The redhead looked a little puzzled when she retrieved her phone, she didn't recognise the number calling, and she knew everyone who had her number.

"Hello?" she answered.

The redhead was met with silence.

"Hello? I know someone's there…"

Still silence.

"Okay, whoever this is, if you're gonna call my number then at least have the balls to say something otherwise just don't bother…"

She hung up and flipped the phone closed.

"Who was that?" Edge asked.

"Dunno…" the redhead shrugged and slipped her phone into her pocket.

Lita got another 10 calls like the first over the next hour; she stopped answering them after the 6th. She was just about to take a shower when her phone rang again, this time Edge answered it.

"Listen jackass, I don't know who you are and I don't care and I don't know why the fuck you get your kicks from harassing women but I suggest you get a life very quickly."

"Oh, but you do know me Edge…" Matt sneered "Now put the little redhead on the phone."

"Matt? You greasy haired little weasel…what the hell is your problem?"

"At the moment, you are…now put Lita on the phone."

"That's not gonna happen."

Edge hung up the phone.

"Matt? It was him who kept calling?" Lita asked quietly.

"Yeah…he said he wanted to talk to you…"

"Why? Why after all this time?"

"I don't know Li…look don't worry, I doubt he'll call again but if he does I'll answer it…"

"What about when you're not here? You can't follow me around 24/7…"

"Li…it's gonna be ok…he was probably just trying to get his twisted little kicks out of freaking you out…I know what he did and said to you before but that's not gonna happen this time…"

"How do you know?"

"Do you think he's gonna get anywhere near you with me, Hunter, John and Randy around? Not to mention Mickie and Candice, can you imagine what they'd do to him?"

Lita laughed.

"I guess…"

"Look, you just go have your shower then we'll both go and mess with Cena for a bit."

"Okay…"

The diva had her shower and was in the middle of getting dressed when she got a text message.

Li, you're the only person I ever loved. I need to be with you Li…I'm going to be with you. Make sure you're at Raw tonight; I have a little surprise for you. Love always…Matt.

With a shaking hand the redhead put her phone back down.

The thought of one of Matt's surprises scared her, he'd always been a little on the unbalanced side, that's why she broke up with him in the first place. Well that and his cruel streak, which the diva had been on the receiving end of more times than she could count. No one really knew what Matt had been like, Edge and the others knew enough to understand why she hated him but none of them knew the whole truth, she hadn't wanted them to feel sorry for her. She glanced at her phone and felt sick.

She finished getting dressed and forced a smile on her face before leaving the bathroom.

"Better now?" her blond friend asked.

"I'm fine; you don't have to worry about me so much…"

"I know, I like to worry about you…come on, lets go and find Cena, maybe we can convince him to wear another dress…"
