Part 1: The beginning of a long night.
John Cena was standing at the bar of the very noisy club Randy Orton had dragged him to but he didn't seem to notice the noise. At the moment his attention was focused on a tall blonde dancing a few feet away from him.
"I told ya this place would be wall to wall chicks didn't I?" Randy smirked when he noticed what his friend was looking at.
John's blue eyes scanned the faces in front of him. He saw some he knew, a few of the divas were there, he'd seen Lita and Mickie at the bar earlier. The blonde he'd been watching walked by him and smiled.
"Get her number man…" Randy said quietly.
"Ya think I should?"
"Go for it man"
John quickly finished the beer he was drinking and followed the blonde. He caught up to her quickly.
"Hi I'm John"
"Sammi" she smiled as she carried on walking.
"So Sammi…you wanna dance or something?"
"Not really…" John's face fell. "But you can walk me back to my place if you want, it isn't far…"
"Okay" John grinned.
Lita was on the dance floor with Mickie trying to look like she was enjoying herself. She'd only agreed to come out tonight to stop Mickie bugging her.
"I think I'm gonna head back…" the redhead said loudly over the music.
"Aw Li don't go yet…"
"I'll see you back at the hotel Micks"
"Do ya want me to come with ya?"
"No, you stay here and have fun, the hotel isn't far anyway…I'll see you later." The redhead made her way out of the club.
John and Sammi were talking as they walked, John didn't notice how dark it was and he didn't see the group of 6 or 7 guys up ahead. The group began to walk toward John and his blonde companion. One of them stopped in front of the West Newbury native, John laughed and tried to walk around him but the others moved in then. One of them took a swing at John but he ducked and landed a punch of his own, it was the only punch he landed.
The group dived on the blue eyed superstar, punching and kicking at him as Sammi stood back and watched. John tried to fight back but there was a flash of silver and he fell to the ground. The guys quickly went through John's pockets, finding his wallet and phone before removing his watch from his wrist. One of them held his watch up.
"This looks expensive…nice work Sammi."
The blonde smiled.
"We should get out of here before someone comes looking for him…" they split up, Sammi and 3 of John's attackers going one way while the rest headed in the opposite direction.
Lita walked along a quiet street, letting the cool night air clear the headache she'd gotten in the club. She saw a small group of people not far ahead, they were laughing about something. The diva put her head down slightly as she past them. She carried on walking until something caught her attention. She wasn't really sure what it was at first, there was barely any light. She walked closer to the alleyway, that's when she realised it was a person.
She pulled her phone out of her pocket and flipped it open. The small beam of light first fell on the pool of blood beside this unconscious someone. The diva felt slightly sick at the sight of it, she'd never seen so much blood before. She moved closer and the light fell on the person's face. At first she thought she was seeing things, it couldn't be him. She knelt down beside him; he was lying on his stomach.
"John?"
She leaned as close to him as she could and listened, at least he was breathing, that was a good sign. She quickly dialed 911 and explained what was going on and where she was. She took off the jacket she was wearing and placed it gently over him.
"It's gonna be ok John…just hold on…" she said shakily to the unconscious superstar.
The ambulance only took 3 or 4 minutes to get to them but to Lita it felt like hours. She stood back helplessly and watched the paramedics work on him.
"Can I go with him?" she asked as John was loaded into the ambulance.
"Of course" one of the paramedics helped Lita into the ambulance. She took hold of one of John's hands, she didn't know why; it just felt like the right thing to do.
When they got John to the hospital she gave a nurse his details, she had to guess at some of them, like his next of kin but she was fairly sure it was his mom. The nurse smiled kindly at her.
"Don't worry dear; they're going to take excellent care of your boyfriend."
Lita almost laughed.
"He's not my boyfriend…we're not even friends really…we just work together."
"Well I'm sure he's going to be okay." The nurse smiled again before going off to do something else leaving Lita standing alone in the waiting room.
She knew she should probably call someone, Randy maybe, anyone who knew John better than she did but she didn't want to do anything or go anywhere until she knew he was ok. She lifted a hand to brush some hair from her face and realised her hands were covered in blood, his blood.
She felt that sick feeling again as she thought about what might have happened if she hadn't left that club when she did or if she'd gone back a different way. She sank onto a chair as she started to cry. It was going to be a long night.
so hunnies what do ya think of this one? i really hope you like it, this is gonna get very angsty as it goes on.
