Tempting the Nightmare
By JurassicFatt
Cheree (Dakota) Pov, March, Afternoon, Hotel Room
Boredom. Sucks to the high heavens. Nothing a little bit of video gaming can't fix. After working out for the majority of the day and then coming home, it's a good stress reliever. And I love getting sucked into the simulated worlds. I like a few genres, but as long as I can have fun by myself or with my friends, then I'm good. Playing Little Nightmares II has been so fun. I just love the dark yet cute atmosphere behind it. Although, it might be better if I had my partner with me. Gaming is always better with Rhea. I miss that cocky smirk she has on her dumb face when she plays.
My girlfriend Rhea rocks. At 5ft.8, she's two inches taller than me, but with those boots of hers, she's a solid 6ft. Comb over style hair, both blonde and brown. Big brown eyes, usually with black eyeshadow and lipstick. She's been putting on these false eyelashes which makes her even more beautiful. Black plug earrings, an upper silver earring on the right ear, plus a few nose rings too. She has a bunch of tattoos, but has to cover up most of them for the E. I like staring at them. Most are demonic looking and fairly detailed, and they're really well done. Yeah, I know a lot of girls say Rhea's got attitude, and she intimidates the hell out of people. And I'll agree, she doesn't take shit for too long. But inside, she's actually the squishiest, cuddliest tomboy I've ever met. I have seen her fangirl so many times, especially on anime like DBZ. But goddamn does she have a cocky bitch side, too. She loves horror, and is almost never afraid, so I can always nestle into her when that freaking teacher's head comes biting after me in game. If I get too scared, she'll always cuddle up nice and close, with those strong warm arms of hers wrapped around me.
Rhea's got a new team partner in Liv Morgan. She's pretty cool too. Scratch that, she's awesome! Liv and Rhea work well together. They have great tag team chemistry, and they support each other. They even started wearing each other's ring gear, which I thought was really nice. And they're really cute together. But… I've got to admit, these past few weeks away from Rhea have been taking their toll. She's been working really hard, and so the few times she comes back to Florida to hang out, she's exhausted.
Don't get me wrong, I'm so happy she's going to Wrestlemania. I want her to win the women's tag titles with Liv. Rhea deserves this, especially for all the hard work she puts in, week in and week out. But I miss her. Her loud voice, catching me by surprise when I'm getting my makeup ready. Her cute little eyebrow raises. Her love for heavy metal, barbecue and cupcakes. Her snarky attitude when I call Vegeta a jackass in the Cell games… But most of all, I miss her smile and touch. The way she gently puts her hand on my back to lead me through crowds. Or pushes my hair behind my ear. Her warm snuggles and bastardly tickles in the morning, as she laughs in that booming voice. Her kisses, sometimes light pecks, and other times hungry, passionate make outs which leave my lips black from her gloss. Her hands slowly caressing me all over- *Shivers*. God, it's been too long.
She's coming back for a few days to stay with me, before going to Dallas for Mania. I want to make the most of our time, since NXT has a PPV next Saturday in Dallas as well. We'll be busy with our events, so we may not see much of each other Friday through Tuesday. So, I've been planning something special for us to do before we go. But I'm so limited on time, I'm not sure what to do! Movie night? No, tried that already. It's too easy. She won't be in the mood for movies or gaming until later on in the week. A return home party, for 2 days? She won't want to get dressed up, not before Mania.
Dressed up… I got it! I practically jump from my chair and go straight to the bedroom's large closet, checking through my different outfits. Ring gear, sweat pants, jeans, t-shirts. Come on, there must be something sexy for me to we- "Aha!" I yell, before moving the whole rack and grabbing the item. It's something I got from Thea about a month back. I'm so glad she is such a big cosplayer. This might just be the trick I need to get Rhea to relax and let loose…
Rhea's Pov, Six hours later, Evening, Hotel
I love being on the road. The cool sites. The awesome fans roaring and cheering (and sometimes booing) for you. The lights, spectacles, as well as the nice people in the locker room. And Wrestlemania is the biggest night of them all. Liv and I have been working towards this goal and I know we'll be great tag team champs. If we win, that is, but we've been putting in the work for it. I have to admit though, I've been looking forward to seeing Cheree tonight. Most people know her as Dakota Kai, but she'll always be Cheree to me. Sometimes I'll call her Evie, just because she started wrestling with that name.
When I first arrived at the Performance Center, it was me, Vic (Raquel), Cheree, Bianca, Gionna (Liv), Dori (Ruby), Sarah, and a bunch of others. And I'll admit, I wasn't looking for anyone when we started. I just wanted to fulfill my dream of becoming a professional wrestler. But I quickly became friends with Vic, who introduced me to Cheree. First time we talked, she was pretty tongue-tied. I thought it was because she was afraid of me or something. I teased and played cocky, and she just kept blushing. I kept that up for a month, until on a random Thursday, she just opened up, bantering back and forth with me. It was so sudden, and so natural. We got close, and over the next few months, started teasing one another over the stupidest things. Anything from in-ring moves to favorite bands and tv shows was fair game. We always ended with a 'You suck! See you later!'. I felt like there was something between us, but I kept it at bay. I was shyer back then, and was seeing other people. And she kept a low profile, so I never knew if she was dating or not. I also didn't know the employee dating policy, and I didn't want myself nor Cheree getting thrown under for my crush, especially if it turned out to be one sided. When my relationship ended during the pandemic, I started to think about her more and more.
It was pretty obvious how I felt, and Raquel confronted me a few times about it. I kind of pushed it away, but she'd always end with 'You best tell her, Chica. It'll drive you nuts if you don't'. Eventually, I asked my mentor Hunter for advice. He told me that it was totally fine, so long as it didn't affect my job, and that I didn't do anything 'risqué' in public or post it online. I made a b-line straight to the women's locker room, but she wasn't there. I called her, figuring it'd be better to use my real words over text, and asked her out. I was scared about how she'd react, but not a second later she said "Yes! *ahem* I mean- Y-Yes. I'd like that." We started dating and, I can safely say over 9 months together, it's the happiest I've been in a long time.
Cheree is thoughtful, down to earth and silly at times. She's very personal, after a bunch of people started rumors that she and Baszler were a couple, then Teagan, so we haven't told anyone about us beyond our friends and management. I respect her choice, and if anyone were to bother/bully her, they can talk to me and I'll set them straight. Even so, that still doesn't stop how close we are. We have similar tastes and interests, but more than that, we want to achieve great things both in wrestling and life. We're both into gamer culture and dogs, are family oriented, care for our countries, and love the fact that we inspire young women. It's amazing to see how many girls look up to us. I don't even know if I deserve such praise, but I'm grateful for everything I have, and Cheree has always been my biggest supporter. Not to mention she is so damn hot! The pink and blonde locks she recently had looked really good on her. She went back to full pink, but it works so well, so I can't wait to see them again. She's so cute when she's flustered. And those big eyes of hers just melt me. I could be in all sorts of pain, and in the worst of moods, but if she pouts and looks at me with those eyes, I can't resist her. One time, when she was ill, she somehow convinced me to go out in the pouring rain to get some peppermint patties, at midnight, from a convenience store a block away. I went in a rain jacket over a t-shirt and shoes with no socks, in a pitch black downpour I might add, but I couldn't help it once I saw her face. I don't think I tell her enough how gorgeous she looks.
Yeah, she can get on my nerves. She has just as much attitude as me, if not more (don't tell her I said that), and she has this extreme fascination with playing games that scare her too much. Damn near ruptured my eardrum when she played Outlast. But I wouldn't change her for the world. And I feel like I've been neglecting her. It's just been so hard working around everything. I'm pushing for these titles. Sometimes I work myself too hard too fast, and need to take a few days to re-cooperate. Unfortunately, those days happen to be the ones I spend with Cheree. I was planning on taking her out, but she said she wants to stay in. I'm in a pair of torn but tight jeans and a black 'Watch Me' Liv shirt, so I can't wait to get into more comfy clothes. On my way over, she then sent me these cryptic texts:
Cheree: Come home right after you get off the plane. Got a surprise for you. 😉
When I tried to ask why, she just said,
Cheree: It's a surprise… Saiyan…
Me: Oh! I like it already.
Cheree: I thought you might.
Rhea: So, what do you have in mind?
Cheree: I told you it's a surprise, dummy!
Rhea: Can I at least get a hint?
Cheree: What's white and black, and sexy all over?
She's driving me crazy! I know it's something Dragon Ball related, given she called me 'Saiyan', but other than that, I'm lost. Is it a cake? No, not with that last text. And with both our PPVs so close, we wouldn't dare cheat on our diet; they'll be plenty of that after Mania. Maybe we'll watch a season while cuddling. That would be pretty perfect. Or did she secretly download DBZ: Kakarot and not tell me? Oh boy! The anticipation is killing me.
I drive into the parking lot of the hotel, and give the front desk my info. They tell me "Ms. Georgia" is waiting in Room 3-G. Walking to the elevator, I can feel my already sweaty palms getting worse. Quickly rubbing them on my pants, I knock on the door. Cheree answers, wearing a white bathrobe, her curly pink hair tumbling over the collar.
"Hi Rhea." she says, her tone slow and drawn out, before she licks her lips.
"Hi CG. Miss me, dear?" I remark, using her initials, which causes her to roll her eyes. I kiss her with all I have, missing those soft lips. I can smell that mango-infused shampoo she loves using. She holds my face and moans, before pulling back. "Huh?"
"Come on, princess of pride. Get in here already." she sasses, then turns and walks into the hotel room. I pull my bag inside and shut the door, then place it in the bedroom and follow her to the kitchen.
"Who said you could give me orders?" I ask half-jokingly.
"Who says I couldn't? Could you stop me?" she sasses again, turning her head over her shoulder. "Was your flight good?'
"It was." I answer, my eyes still roaming over her. She's teasing me, wearing that bathrobe to conceal what she's wearing underneath. She knows I love seeing her ass, so she's tempting me right now, since I don't know what she's wearing under that robe to cover herself… if anything. Someone, please, get me an ice water. I look at the table, where some room service has been ordered. Looks like some chicken with loads of greens and boiled potatoes on the side. She's planned this out pretty well. I'll definitely play along… for now.
"There's some food there if you like. But I figured you'd want to shower first. I left some clothes for you in there." I nod my head, before wrapping her in my arms. "Hey, what are you doing? I told you to go shower." she turns her head to look at me.
"You going to join me? Show me what's under that robe?"
"I already showered, so if I take another, I'll only be giving myself rashes for nothing. And I told you, it's a surprise! Now, go shower, you big arse hat!" she tells me, before laughing out loud.
"Why should I?" I ask sarcastically. She looks at me with her eyebrow raised, then escapes my arms. She opens up one of the trays, filled with different fruits.
"Because I told you to." Cheree says cockily. Leaning over, she takes a piece of melon from the tray and bites it, the juice staining her mouth. She closes her eyes, moans and licks her lips, before popping the rest in her mouth. Once she's done, she shows me her hand, still shiny with fruit juice. Her eyes locked with mine, she licks her thumb, then her fore and middle fingers, before sucking the two into her mouth. Damn tease! I better go before I decide to have dessert first.
"Alright, I'm going now. Shouldn't be too long."
"I'll be waiting." she whispers, her seductive tone causing me to shudder. You win this round, Dakota Kai. But let's see who comes out on top later.
Author's Note: Hey everyone. Hope you've been doing alright. So, another story, just for you. Tempting the Nightmare. I hope you enjoyed. This is a planned three-shot. Don't worry, got Aftermath on the brain. This came to mind about a month ago and has been my go to stress reliever. Rhea and Liv rock, but I wanted to write something involving her and Dakota. More to come soon, just a few more hurdles before I can fully focus on Aftermath. Until next time, take care everyone!
Please do review if you can. It shows me people enjoy my stories, which is always nice. Thanks again for reading and have a great day!
