Chapter 8: Must Be Lust


Two days later

Denise sat in her room, admiring her new WWE title. With her hair up, she was hanging out in a black sweat suit and some Elmo slippers as she glanced out the window. She had a lot on her mind. She needed to express herself so she open her laptop, click the word document and let her imagination run.

Denise started to write lyrics to a song that she wanted to featured on her next album .

"When I look into your eyes,

something about the way you look at me,

keeps me wondering."

"What can this be," Denise sang. "No, no that doesn't sound right." thought Denise

"Is this a fantasy." Denise sang. "No, I don't like that either," said Denise to herself. "How about…"

Could this be my destiny, "yea that's sounds great. Okay now lets add this all together."

When I look into your eyes

something about the way, " I should echo way" Denise thought

you look at me,

keeps me wondering ,

could this be my destiny

maybe take a chance at love again,

claim you as my man,

and spend eternity, yeaa-a-a

"what else?" she said.

wit you as my king,

sharing every dream,

with love and everything,

hold onto me John, don't ever leave me, no,

keep me in your arms, and don't let go!

"Then with a funky beat this could be the chorus."

Could this be love, that I'm feeling ,

could this be real love, that I'm feeling .

cause it feels right

but I'm afraid it might,

just be lust (echoes) lust lust.

"That sound nice." Said Trish.

"What! How long were there, Trisha?" questioned Denise.

"Girl, that sounds nice, all you need is smooth funky type beat and you got it. What's the title? Remember I also have a key to this place, duh!"

"I have no idea, so what's up with you and Randy." as Denise switch the subject.

"Well he surprised me with a scavenger hunt type thing… Denise, let me tell you, girl he is so cool. I really like him." Trish said

"I'm so happy for you!" Denise replied

There was a rhythmic knock at the door. Denise opened the door to her penthouse suite to find Maria, Ashley and Kresent. Kresent ( pronounced Cre – zent) is not a wrestler but he's is one of Denise's back-up dancers and Denise's long-time friend.

"Hey everybody." Trish said.

Kresent, Ashley, Maria responded

"So what brings ya'll here" said Denise as she saved her document.

Ashley: Lets go out!

Kresent: Denise what are you working on? How did your date with Durrell go.

Maria: So how is Darren?

Denise: (In an annoyed tone) Its Durrell, Maria and he's fine.

Trish: Well, Ashley, what did you have planned.

Ashley: A girls night out.

Maria: Guys, Kresent isn't a girl, duh!

Denise: But he's gay.

Kresent: Can we just call it a girls night out. Now where are we going.

Maria: Club 847!

Ashley: No, that place is corny.

Trish: Lets go to the Chrome!

Everyone: Hey!


At Chrome(Club)

Rihanna's hit single S.O.S playing in the background

S.O.S. please someone help me.
It's not healthy for me to feel this way
Y.O.U. are making this hard….

Ashley, Maria, Kresent and Denise were on the dance floor; while Trish was drinking a apple martini. Trish took a sip of the green syrup and let go a soft groan. She smiled as she though about Denise's song and how its relates to Randy and her.

Randy and Trish have been threw a lot these last couple of months. Two days ago Randy put Trish on a romantic scavenger hunt. He had her walking over the whole stadium leaving little notes for her to read. He set her up with six different color roses because she a six-time champion. At the end on the night she finally met up with him and had a romantic dinner follow by an soulful performance and then dessert on a chariot.

Snap, snap was the sound of a familiar man's fingers.

"Baby, you alright. You were in your own little world, huh?" said Randy.

"Huh, oh randy," Trish said. She smiled. "Baby, who is John with?"

"Oh her… that's the girl he's been seeing. Tonight his second date with her." Randy replied.

"Trish" screamed Ashley. "Get your ass and your boy's ass and get out here. The dance floor is popping, come on girl."

Denise walked pass Trish and Randy and said: "Have fun out there Trish. Show him what he's working with. Yo, Trish show him your new moves. I'm tired and I'm going to take a little break. I'll be right back."

Denise watched everyone enjoy themselves. Denise signals for a waiter; a waitress walks up and takes her order. "Yes, I'll have golden apple martini, thank you."

Denise then glanced across the room to see her buddy making a move on girl. She was very intrigued on what was going on. Denise smiled as she watch John hit on the girl.

"That's boy is a trip." Denise said to herself.

She started to sip her drink as she watch John make his move.

"Are you watching him?" said a familiar diva.

"Oh, so now you're my friend. Whatever happen to us, I mean before the whole John situation you were consider a good friend to me." Denise replied.

"I don't know what happen, one day I like John than I started to obsess over him and that's not me. I want to say I'm sorry from the bottom of my heart and I hope that you'll forgive me and we can be friends again." Torrie said.

With a suspicious look on Denise face, she agreed with the raw diva.


Outside Chrome

Randy & Trish ran into John Cena and his date Jasmine

Randy: John, were are you going?

John : Oh, Jasmine and I are going to café across the street. Did you want to come?

Randy: Yeah, if that's not a problem with your date?

John: Is that a problem Jazz? (Jasmine shook her head indicating no) No its not a problem but just you two, okay.
