Chapter 20

Oh god, Chapter 20 and I haven't even got started! Lots of drama to come.

xXx

Megan had been hiding all night and even ignored Sofia 'urgent' request to meet her in catering. She wasn't interested in what her best friend had to say. It was probably only to sort out an outfit or something. Instead, she was after one person.

Karlee.

She didn't appreciate being made to look weak just after kicking her ass, especially just after having a huge dé were certainly intrigued at the fact some woman turned up, claiming to sleep with Dean Ambrose only then to knock out the newest Diva's champion. Plus, she had to make sure her and Dean split up. Megan and Sofia both wanted and needed Karlee gone but they could risk upsetting Dean. So having then split up or fall out and then working a little stipulation into a match seemed the beat way to do things. Megan knew Dean wasn't happy with the mini brawl the week before, so the best thing? Get her into another one. The divas locker room was barely occupied that night since half the female roster were in Mexico for a bachelorette party but she knew Karlee would be there.

It was almost time for the pre show and Karlee was getting ready for a shower in the locker room. As she sung along to the radio and stripped her skinny jeans off, the locker room door flung open. Karlee's heart thumped on her ribcage as she tried to cover herself up with a towel. With her and Eva Marie being the only ones in there, they knew it could mean trouble. Karlee decided to ditch the towel, her vest being longer and emerged from the cubicle in only her flowing white vest to be greeted with the boot that belonged to Megan. Karlee stumbled back in shock, feeling a hot metallic tasting liquid fill her mouth.

"Nobody humiliates me and gets away with it!" she yelled as she dragged Karlee into the main room of the ladies changing area. Karlee was stunned, trying to catch her breath and her footing as Megan threw her against the wall, ripping her shirt from her body. Karlee crashed into the mirrored wall, smashing it into tiny pieces and cutting her arms and shoulders. Her back arched in pain and her face screwed up at the torturous feeling. She left Karlee alone long enough for her to stand up and wipe the smear of blood from her mouth.

"You couldn't kick my ass three years back so what makes you think you can do it now?" Karlee spat with a slight grin on her face, the venom in her voice shining through.

"Because back then you liked me and we were friends. Now I have something against you. My son. Mine and Deans son." Karlee laughed.

"You don't even know that yet!" She fought back. Megan threw her head back and laughed.

"I got the test results this morning babe. He us definitely Dean's kid." Karlee felt her while body go weak, as if her heart had been stomped on repeatedly. But Megan gave her no sympathy. Instead she launched a hair-dryer at Karlee's head and managed to knock her silly. As Karlee's vision went funny, Megan grabbed her by the hair and took her through the open door. There were only a few people but I would be enough to embarrass Karlee.

She put both hands around her neck and slammed her against the wall, holding get there with her feet dangling in the air. Karlee was more interested in grabbing at the scarp of clothing she was wearing and knew soon enough Megan's grip would wear off. She kicked her feet in wild movements, hoping someone would help her. She saw Dolph out of the corner of his eye but he was panicking too much to do anything. They probably thought if they helped her she would bite their heads off. Which she probably would. Then she saw him. Thank god.

Karlee had never been in serious trouble at work before and now that Megan was out to get her, she could feel herself at the tip of a downward spiral. She marched beside Steph, gripping at the shirt Dean had given her to cover herself up a little. It reached just above her thigh and brushed nicely against her sugarskull tattoo. She could tell she was about to get it but if she had too, she would bring out the 'but she started it' stuff. Steph and Hunter walked them into the office and made the two girls sit on the only two seats available.

"I'm going to say this once and once only. No brawls in this company. If you feel as though you need to fight it out, get a match and do it for the crowd. Megan, I'm really dissapointed in you. You not only lied your way into the company but you violate your contract terms wthin the first week? Something's telling me you want t be punished." Megan stood up and slammed her hands on the table.

"You don't understand. I'm fighting for a match and my son and all you can do is moan at me? What the hell about Karlee?"

"You blindsided attacked her for no reason. She didn't even have clothes on. At least she didn't jump you when the camera's were off." Steph snapped back.

"She was bamouthing my son!" Now it was Karlee's turn to scream out.

"Did I fuck! All I said was that you didn't know who the Dad was." Megan sighed.

"Oh sweetie. I know fine who the Dad is. The results were delivered this morning-" Steph crossed her legs with a smirk on her face.

"Ah. Problem number one. First, Megan, I want you to go and pack your bags. You have officially been suspended for thirty days for violating your twenty day trial. You weren't allowed to get into trouble within 20 days and you did. The car will pick you up and take you to the airport in five minutes."

"You can't do that! Karlee attacked me first! That ain't fair." Hunter stood up to back his wife up.

"We have security footage now get out of my office before I terminate your contract." His voice was more of a low growl as he warned Megan and fair enough, she took the hint. But not before kicking Karlee's chair. She rolled her eyes at her pathetic attempt to wind her up. Hunter sighed.

"Look guys, we trust you not only as out employees but as our friends and we think we should be the first to let you know about Megan." Karlee was tired of hearing about other people and their mistakes. She couldn't be asses at what they were going to throw at her now. She was brought of her Megan-hating session when Hunter dangled his suit jacket in front of her and she gratefully accepted, the chill starting to get to her bare legs.

"Megan never sent away for any DNA tests. She was lying about knowing. We are really sorry." Dean nodded but karlee wasn't surprised. It sounded like the kind of shit she would pull. Dean's hand found hers and her whole body tensed as she pulled her hand back to her body, uncomfortable with his touch all of a sudden. She saw the look Steph and Hunter exchanged and they looked worried. It was obvious that all the antics had slowly killed any spark of their relationship. It was barely hanging on by a thread.

"Look guys, As much as I love slagging half the diva's division, can I go and get ready? The show starts in less than half an hour and I haven't even done my hair." Steph smiled.

"No, we have something a little better for you and hopefully it will sort out any problems you guys are having." Dean was interested but Karlee knew whatever it was, it probably wouldn't heal the broken mess that her heart was currently in.

"I appreciate it Steph and thanks for the jacket hunter, But me and Dean need to sort this out ourselves." She stood up and passd the jacket back before giving a warm smile in Steph's direction. She turned her back towards them and started to walk out, only getting as far as the chair Dean was sitting on before Steph spoke.

"It's about the kid." Dean grabbed her hand. Tight. She looked down at him, feeling slightly stupid in his shirt.

"Can you just listen. I want you here whenever I found out anything. I want to do this together." Karlee knew he was petrified about the fact he could be a father. He was scred of doing it alone and even worse, having to actually have communication with Megan. Karlee's mind cired out to leave and keep her foot down but her heart drew her back to the chair.

"I'm listening." She looked down and noticed Dean still had her hand and his grip was obviously more to comfort him rather her.

"We, uh, offered to help you three through this whole thing which meant paying for the DNA test and having it officiated by our medics. But we stumbled across a small problem in the form of not being able to find the kid." Dean's head shot up and his yes darted between Steph and Hunter.

"What do you mean, Is she not letting you do it? Is she hiding him?" Steph chuckled and so did Hunter. Well how proffessional was that.

"Dean, There was no child. She's been lying to you this whole time. She had never given birth to your kid, let alone any child."
