A quick update! Enjoy!
CH.31 Burned
July 7, 2012 El Paso, Texas
"Ugh is there anything on this menu that I can eat" Aksana whined, tossing her menu down on the table
Yelena, AJ, Brie Bella, and Aksana were currently sitting in the booths in the hotel's restaraunt for lunch.
"Well, there's the club sandwich" AJ offered
"It comes with bacon on it, not to mention all that mayo" Aksana dissmissed
"How about the Chef's Salad?" the small Diva asked
"They only give you blue cheese dressing on it"
"What about the turkey burger?" Yelena asked
"I'll want fries if I get a burger."
"The soup? They have plenty to choose from" Brie said, scanning the list of over ten soup choices.
Aksana picked up her own menu and skimmed the list, settling for a simple vegetable soup "What are you getting?" the dark haired Diva asked AJ
"Grilled cheese" she muttered, focusing on coloring the dancing food on the kiddy menu she got when they came in
"I'm going to get soup too. I want to ween myself off of solid food before I start my juice cleanse."
"You do that too?" Yelena asked. She knew that Phil does juice fasting sometimes. The whole think seemed a bit icky to her. She saw the way he chugged unidentifiable fruits and vegetables like it was a glass of orange juice
"Yeah. It's really refreshing. Nik and I have a photo shoot coming up and I want to look my best"
The waiter came and placed the Ladies' drinks in front of them
"Does it actually work?" Yelena asked, intrigued.
"Absolutely. You see results fairly quickly, but I must warn you. There are a few side effects." Brie told her "You'll get headaches and feel crappy. Not to mention it slightly effects your sleeping patterns."
"Hmm." Yelena grunted. It didn't sound too bad. Now it made since why Phil was always grumpier than usual. It was probably from the double lack of sleep "So how long do you do it?"
"I usually do it for two weeks, but if you were to do it, I'd suggest just one week."
"My sister's wedding is next year. I want to look good for it." Yelena told the twin
"You look fine now." Aksana told her, pulling a stern face.
Yelena could tell that she didn't like the idea of her dieting at all
"Yeah, you so don't need to lose weight. You look fantastic." AJ agreed
"Says the 'Sexiest women on television'" Yelena scoffed
After lunch, the girls returned to their room. Yelena had received a text from Rosa, asking if they could hang out by the pool, so she quickly changed into one of her new bathing suits she bought. She had to admit, it was not a bathing suit she would ever consider buying. She was always afraid that she would look like she was oozing out of it from every possible direction, but after some encouragement from Aksana, as always, she caved and bought it
She examined herself in the bathroom mirror. It actually didn't look as terrible as she thought it would. It was a hot pink bikini with gold leopard spots on it. All those weeks of stress and intense workouts have been paying off. She looked toned and trim, her love handles that she noticed a month ago were gone, leaving her looking coke bottle curvy. For once, she felt like she could strut around in a bathing suit and not think twice about herself. She grabbed a towel, wrapping it around her waist and her camera and everything she needed, throwing them into her tote and went down to the pool. When she got there, she spotted the Latina lounging in a chair on the phone and as she got closer, she noticed that the dark haired Diva's form was rigid and she was shouting obscenities in Spanish on her phone
"You fucking bastard! Don't you dare talk to me that way" she said loudly in her native tongue
Yelena was grateful that the pool was empty and no one was round to witness the scene. Another handful of curses left her mouth before she finally hung up on whoever she was talking to. Yelena plopped down on the chair next to her
"Is everything okay?" Yelena asked
Rosa sighed heavily before tossing her IPhone into her bag "Yeah, that was my fiance. He's being an asshole."
"You want to talk about it?" Yelena offered, knowing there was nothing like keeping things bottled in for long
Her phone buzzed loudly and Rosa lowered her Ray Banz down from her head "I don't want to talk about him. I want to have some fun." she said with a smile
Yelena smiled back, pulling her Nikon out of her bag "How about a mini photo shoot?"
"Hell yeah!" Rosa said, jumping up. She struck. pose and Yelena snapped it
"Yes yes, work it! Very nice!" she said in a faux accent.
Rosa did a playful model face and posed like a pro as Yelena snapped away. When they were done, they went through all of the pictures before Rosa snatched the camera away
"Your turn" she told her
"What? Me? No way, I'm always the person behind the camera."
"Oh come on. You look hot as hell in that suit and your going to model it for me whether you like it or not" Rosa told her
Yelena sighed before placing her hands on her hips and striking a pose of her own
"That's it, work it! Work it! Nice! Make love to the camera dahling" Rosa laughed
Yelena cracked as she did different stances. She flipped her hair dramatically and struck a sexy pose with her hands behind her head
"That's it! Diablo mami!" Rosa laughed
They were too busy goofing off like idiots to notice that three Superstars had entered through the gate.
"What do we have here?" the Spanish drawl of none other than Alberto sounded "You ladies are having a photo shoot and did not invite us?" he said with a charming smile
"Looks like we missed out" said Stephen, better known as Sheamus
"Pitty, I would have loved to have a front row seat."
Yelena did a double take when she saw Chris appear beside Alberto.
"Sorry boys, show's over." Rosa laughed "Oh, Alberto, Stephen, this is my friend Yelena"
"Nice to meet ya lass" said Sheamus
"A plesure conorcerte, hermosa" Alberto said in Spanish, taking her by the hand and placing a soft kiss on it, his voice like velvet
"Encontado de conorcerte también" she said. Alberto grinned at her in surprise.
She fidgeted with her camera as everyone chatted, trying to avoid Chris's gaze on her. Alberto was too busy flirting with Rosa and Sheamus jumped into the pool, so no one noticed when Chris took her by the hand and pulled her over to a lounge chair
"Well aren't you a sight today." He said sitting down
"Thanks" she said, blushing.
He pulled her down onto the chair and she sat on the edge. She smiled shyly at him as he stared at her, a small smile on his own face
"What?" she asked, laughing out of nervousness. It was so bizarre that they were even talking in public, so she felt weird
"Nothing, I'm just... admiring the beauty in front of me."
That made her blush even harder. This whole situation was like a dream to her and she was having a hard time believing that it was real
"You speak Spanish" he pointed out
"Yeah, fluently" she said
"Really? Say something dirty" he said, grinning
"You sound like Mike. He asked me to do the same thing when he found out too" she laughed
"No fair, you did it for him" Chris said with a cute pout on his face, making her giggle
"Actually, I called him a pompous idiot with a big mouth." she admitted, making him laugh. God, his smile was so perfect.
"Now you have to do it, or I'm going to tell him you said that" he said with a smirk
Yelena rolled her eyes playfully at him "Fine, what do you want me to say?" she asked
"Hmmm" he pondered with a smile. He leaned in close to her, his smile fading into seriousness. Their lips were only mere centimeters apart as he spoke
"Tell me you want me tonight" he said, so close now that their noses were touching
A tremble ran through her at his closeness, his blue eyes boring into her and the words came out in a whisper "Te quiero esta noche"
Chris let out a small groan at the sound of the words leaving her lips, wishing he could take her right then and there. Between seeing her parade around in that tiny bikini and finding out that she spoke spanish, he had never been so turned on in his life. He wanted nothing more than to kiss her in front of everyone, which surprised him. He reached out and tucked a stray hair behind her ear and she leaned into his touch, closing her eyes and biting her lower lip Thankfully, the heated moment was interrupted.
"Chris, stop harassing Yelena." Rosa said, turning to the brunette "¿Esta usted hablando con la muerte?" she asked in spanish
Yelena shook her head, glancing at Chris. She couldn't focus on anything other than her heart slamming wildly against her ribcage and the way her body burned with need. How the hell he was having this effect on her, she had no idea, but she needed to get away from him. This was not the time to fall back into his grasp. She stood, taking the Latina by the hand
"Let's jump in"
They ran full speed to the pool's edge and jumped in. The cold water felt amazing and it was the perfect way to extinguish the fire that was threatening to burn her
Uh oh. What is Chris playing at? Or is he playing at all? What do you think? Review!
