"Ah, Ambroses" Hunter smirks as we walk into the meeting. "Nice of you to join us." "Sorry guys" Jon says, sitting down and pulling me onto his lap. "Uh, Lora lost a contact lens. Blind as a bat otherwise." "Clearly" Finn grins. "Did she have them in when you met?" I smirk across at him. "Virtual high five for that put down Balor" I say. "But yeah, I did, and I still think he's handsome." I poke my tongue out at him and he grins. "Good to see you guys happy" he says. "Amen" Hunter says. "And by the way, Ambrose, if you expect us to believe Lora lost a contact lens, you might wanna bite down on something when you get caught up in the groove, if you catch my drift." He winks as Jon smirks. "Busted" he says, holding his hands up. I grin and cuddle into him, playing with his fingers and kissing his neck as the meeting goes on. "You know" he moans as Hunter speaks. "You're really not helping the situation here doll. There are a heck of a lot of people around for what I want to do to you right now." I smile and kiss his neck once more. "Lora?" Hunter asks, clearly not for the first time. "Huh?" I ask, looking at him quickly. "And she's back in the room guys" Hunter says laughing. I smile. "Sorry" I say. "What's the problem?" "No problem" Hunter says. "I was just wondering if you were joining the guys at ringside tonight." I shake my head quickly. "I'm washing my hair" I say. Hunter laughs. "Ok" he says. "I guess that told me. Right guys, you know what you gotta do, let's get out there and give them one hell of a show." Everyone claps and stands up. Well, almost everyone. Jon wraps his arms around my waist. "Not yet" he moans, pulling me back into his lap. "Ow Jon" I grumble. "Phone..." "Not my phone" he says, looking at me pointedly. Ah. Ok. Guess I'll just sit here a while until my husband recovers.
Joe and Colby are rushing around getting ready when we finally make it back to the locker room. "About time!" Colby says, throwing Jon's stuff at him. "Weren't you listening to Hunter?" "Uh, kinda had other things on my mind" Jon says, looking at me and winking. "Yeah" Joe sneers. "Like acting like a lovesick teenager." "And the real Joe is back in the room" I snap. "Knew it wouldn't last. I'm going for a walk. Good luck, kick ass, I'll see you when you're done." I kiss Jon, open the door and jog up the corridor to find someone who I wouldn't actually mind talking to.
"Hey girlfriend" Nikki says, greeting me as I walk into the divas locker room. I smile and hug her before flopping onto the bench next to Brie. "Why are you in here?" Brie asks. "Not that it's not good to see you, it's just, you and Ambrose were acting like newlyweds at the meeting. Shouldn't you be tearing his clothes off about now?" "Brianna" I say. "Why do you really think we were late for the meeting?" Because you lost a lens" she says frowning. I smirk. "Brie" I say. "I don't wear glasses. Or lenses." I watch her face when she finally realises what I'm saying. "Oh jeez Lora!" she groans, pushing me away. "You're as bad as Nicole!" "Hey!" Nikki says, laughing. "At least my John doesn't scream out and let the whole of the roster know what's going on!" "Nikki, Nikki, Nikki" I say, standing up and patting her back. "Clearly you're not doing it right then!" Brie and I laugh as Nikki pretends to scowl at me. So really" she says softly. "Why are you in here instead of with Jon? You do realise they're opening the show, right?" I shake my head. "In that case" I say. "It's just as well I'm here. If I was still there with them, the Shield would be a man down. I'd probably kill Joe." "It's a man down already" Brie points out. "You're not going out there with them. Whether you believe it or not Lora, you're actually part of that group now. Fans expect it. You not being with them is like me being the Bella twins without Nikki." "Stop being so dramatic Brianna" I groan. "I'm not even scheduled to be here tonight. I came with my husband..." "Yeah, we heard" Nikki smirks, interrupting me. I shake my head. "Get your mind out of the gutter Nicole" I groan, trying hard not to laugh. There's a knock on the door, which can only mean one thing. Jon.
Nikk opens the door just a crack and peeks out. "Hey Ambrose" she says. "What's up?" "My wife in there?" he asks. Nikki nods and opens the door wider so Jon can see me. "Hey lover" I say, standing up and walking to him. He pulls me into his arms and kisses me softly. "Walk with us?" he asks. I groan but nod, waving to Nikki and Brie and letting Jon lead me down the corridor.
"Joe is kicking himself" he says quietly as we walk to the locker room. "Good" I say. "Saves me a job." He grins and opens the door. Joe looks at me straight away. "I'm sorry" he says. "I guess, I just miss Galina, you know?" I nod. "I know" I say. "But don't take it out on me Joe." He nods. "Won't happen again" he says softly. "We gotta go, guys" Colby says walking in. Jon nods and grabs my hand, leading me back out into the corridor. "Ready for this?" he asks. I shake my head. Fans have always been pretty vocal when they've seen us before our entrance. Something tells me this is going to be no different.
