Author's Note: So, Fast Lane? I was pretty sad that Paige didn't win the title. But I think we all expected it. Still disappointing though. Anyways, I didn't get a lot of response from the first chapter, but it's not going to discourage me. I know people are reading. I hope you guys stick around.
Next chapter will be next week. I'm working on chapter 7. As I get further alone, I will update quicker.

SUMMER RAE remembered the day she first met Paige. She was walking down Hollywood. Emma and AJ were on each side of her. They were talking about Emma's ex-boyfriend, who had cheated on her two days before. Summer decided that the three of them should go sightseeing. They rarely got to hang out and just do nothing.
"I suggest we TP his house," AJ suggested, as she grinned at her two friends. They passed Riley's Believe It Or Not. They were walking towards In-N-Out, ready for lunch. They had gotten Emma out of her heartbreak, and were talking about revenge.
"What are you? Sixteen?" Summer asked, frowning. She shook her head and looked down to her phone. She was contemplating whether or not to send a threat to Emma's ex. She didn't like him. She never did, but he made her happy at the time. But then, she found him in bed with someone else. It made Summer angry.
She dropped it when she bumped into someone. Her friends were able to keep her on her feet, but the other person didn't have the same luck. Her things fell to the ground when her bag opened.
"Watch where you're going," Summer snapped, as she bent down to pick up her phone.
"Fuck," she heard the other person mutter. She heard the accent, but was unable to really hear it because the other person whispered it. She looked over and saw the other girl picking up her luggage. "This is not my day."
Summer sighed, and then bent down to help her pick up her things. "Sorry, it's my fault too."
The raven-haired woman nodded, while she shoved everything into her bag. She didn't seem to acknowledge Summer or her friends, but Summer did feel bad for her. She felt Emma and AJ bent down to help her. Once everything was placed into the girl's bag, the four woman stood there, not sure what to say.
"I'm Summer Rae," she introduced herself, while smiling at what looked to be the younger girl. The girl didn't seem a day older than twenty. Her pale skin and black wavy hair did help her look even younger. She wondered how old she was.
The pale woman nodded. Summer assumed that she must be nervous. She hadn't heard her say anything to them, other then the previous whispers, but the other girl was just talking to herself.
"I'm April Mendez, but call me AJ."
"And I'm Emma Dashwood," her blond friend said, her Australian accent strong. Summer watched as the other girl smile at her international friend. She wondered if she was also from Australia, but couldn't match the accent to Emma's.
"What's your name?" Summer asked, a soft smile on her face. Many people thought she was a bitch, but that was what she wanted people to think. Her best friend, Emma, she was sweetest person she met, and many people took advantage of that. Summer, after seeing that, decided to become a bitch, to help her friends by becoming a bitch.
The pale woman looked at the three people. "Paige. Paige Knight." Summer smiled at the accent the woman had. She knew she was English.
Summer smiled and nodded. "Nice to meet you Paige."
Paige nodded, still looking at the three.
"Did you just move here?" Summer asked, while nodding towards the luggage. Paige didn't have much on her. She had a backpack, and a roller. She wondered if that was all she owned, or if she had other things in her home.
Paige gave them a small smile, "Yeah, left the airport a few hours ago."
"You live around here?" Emma questioned, while she looked around. Summer looked around as well, wondering if anyone was waiting for the Brit. But the younger woman looked to be alone. That confused Summer, because the girl seemed to be moving her things by herself.
"No. I actually just came here. I was looking for a place to live," she responded, her accent a little stronger.
Summer and Emma looked at AJ. Their former roommate, Alicia Fox had moved away. And the three were looking for a new one, to help with the rent. And they needed the new roommate. And things couldn't be more perfect; a potential roommate had literally crashed into them.
"Have you found one?" AJ asked, while rolling her eyes. Summer could see the annoyance in her face, but she tried to hide it from the new girl.
Paige shook her head. "I was just going to look around actually."
After letting out a sigh, she offered Paige their apartment. Paige seemed to think about it, and then nodded.
The three women took Paige to In-N-Out, to get to know their new roommate. They wanted to question her, to make sure she wasn't a crazy person who would murder them in their sleep. She smiled, knowing that the new roommate was going to give them an adventure.

Summer looked around, and saw the people she was surrounded by. She decided to have a small party. It was Paige's twentieth birthday. She walked away from the guy she was talking too, Fandango, and his girlfriend Rosa. If Summer didn't know any better, she would have assumed Rosa was more into girls, but she didn't want to seem inconsiderate, so she kept quiet for most of the conversation.
Summer was looking around. She saw Emma on the couch, talking to Alicia. After Alicia moved away, they thought she was going to forget about them, but she didn't. She spent one weekend a month with them. She had even met Paige, although the younger woman was reserved when the African American came around.
"Hey AJ, have you seen Paige?" Summer asked, when she noticed that all of the guests were in the apartment, well, everyone but the birthday girl. She hadn't seen Paige in hours, and she wondered where she was. Many people where asking about her, being the birthday girl and all.
AJ moved away from her boyfriend and looked at her friend. "I think she's in her room."
Summer nodded. She took a step back. AJ moved back and continued to make out with her boyfriend, Phillip Brooks. Summer rolled her eyes and walked towards Paige's room. She knocked on the door and then just entered. She frowned when she saw Paige on her bed, looking at a picture. She just watched her roommate, who kept everything hidden. She frowned when she saw Paige wipe her eyes.
"Paige?" Summer whispered, cautiously. She took a step towards the younger woman.
She saw Paige's eyes widen and look away. "Oh, hey Summer. What's going on?"
Summer could hear Paige's voice break. "I was just wondering why you weren't at the party." She frowned and took a step forward, but was stopped by Paige.
"C-can I have a minute. I'll be out soon," the Brit told her. Summer watched the younger girl, not sure what to say. She nodded and left the room. She stared at the door for a few seconds, not sure what to think. She hadn't ever seen Paige look so sad. She had never seen her cry. And it worried her. She decided to go to the party. Paige would speak to her when she was ready. And she didn't look ready.
Naked
Half an hour later, she found Paige talking to a couple of guys. One of the men was big; he had black wavy hair that reached his shoulders. The other man was smaller, he had dual colored hair. The third man was about the same size as the dual haired man. He had brown hair, with the tips reached his ears. Summer had never seen them before.
She found Emma in the kitchen. "Do you know who those guys Paige is speaking to?"
Emma looked over and shook her head. "No. I've never seen them before. Should we be worried?"
After a month with Paige, the three women started to treat her like a younger sister. They had noticed that the Brit was really naïve. There were a lot of things she didn't know, and they took it upon themselves to teach her. They really enjoyed it, and they started to see her different.
"I don't know. They don't look too dangerous," Summer whispered, as she watched Paige smile at something the dual-haired man say.
"I know who they are," someone said from behind. Emma and Summer turned to see AJ and Phillip behind them. Phillip was the one who spoke, and he smiled at the two worried women. "C'mon, I'll introduce you guys."
Emma, Summer, and AJ followed Phillip. Soon, they were standing with Paige and the three guys.
"Girls, this is Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, and my stupid step-brother, Seth Rollins," Phillip said, introducing the women to the men. "Guys, these are Summer Rae, Emma Dashwood, my girlfriend April Mendez, and I'm assuming you know Paige Knight."
Seth smirked as he looked at Paige. "So that's your name," he said. He shook his head and laughed.
"Pleasure meeting you," the bigger guy said, smile at the girls. Summer felt herself smile back.
In a matter of seconds, the group started to talk. They talked about anything and everything. They all seemed to be enjoying each other's company.
"We were going to go to Club next week, if you guys want to go? I know Punk is going," Emma offered, as she elbowed her roommate's boyfriend. Phillip liked to call himself CM Punk. No one knew why, and no one questioned him. But they did start calling him Punk. Everyone except for Paige. For some reason, she said that it was his given name, and that he shouldn't change it. Punk didn't mind, he had been taken to Paige. After meeting her over a year ago, he treated her like a younger sister, and Paige seemed to enjoy it.
Seth nodded, but kept his eyes on the pale girl. "That would be cool," he answered. He winked at her, and she looked away. Summer could see the blush growing on her cheeks.
Summer grinned, seeing something between Paige and Seth Rollins.
Summer then realized, she had never seen Paige give any guy another look. Emma and Summer had past boyfriends, while AJ had a current boyfriend. But it was always just Paige. Summer knew that Paige never had a boyfriend, and she would always tell them that she was not interested. After a while, they all gave up and let the Brit live her life. But now, Summer wondered if Seth was going to be the one to break through to her. If Seth was going to be the one that would show her what she was missing.
Seth looked at his watch and stood up. "I have to go." He started to say his goodbyes to everyone.
Summer watched as Paige frowned, but quickly looked away, not wanting them to notice. But Summer noticed, she was the only one, and it made her smile. She found it adorable, it was Paige's first crush, and it took her mind back to elementary school. She wondered if Paige even knew what she was feeling.
"Happy birthday Knight," the dual haired man said as he smiled at her. He pulled her into his arms and gave her a hug.
"Thanks Rollins," Paige whispered, giving him a smirk. The two pulled apart and stared at each other. Summer was counting the seconds before Seth left. She almost laughed when she saw him rush away, and left the blushing Brit. She looked over at her friends and noticed that she was not the only one to notice. Roman was staring at them with a smile. Punk was glaring at his stepbrother, and AJ was grinning. She looked over the last two and noticed something else.
Dean had moved and started to talk to Emma. Summer smirked, seeing an opportunity. Her friends could find love, and she wanted that for them. She had never seen Paige happy, and Emma's last boyfriend broke her heart. She looked at her friends, wondering what was going to happen next. She hoped Seth would break the walls around Paige.
