Chapter 4: Maybe first impressions don't matter!
Laura sat down at the table, it was time to have a meeting with the whole creative team. But she was the first one In there, sitting by herself. When her best friend Daryl came into the room.
"Hey Laura. Did you hear?" Daryl asked.
"Hear what?" Laura said confused.
"Well I'm moving to Smackdown! Creative team , it seems SOMEONE went to the RAW creative team and so they need a new one for Smackdown!." Daryl said laughing.
"Aww, you mean they switched us? I'm sorry!" Laura said feeling bad.
"No, no that's alright. I wanna go to Smackdown! And meet the guys I have yet to meet. It'll be fun. So todays my last day with the RAW side." Daryl said taking a seat.
"So how has the day been going?" Daryl asked.
"So far so good, besides falling on top of Paul London." Laura said hitting her forehead.
Daryl began to laugh. "I know what a great first impression." Laura said looking at Daryl laughing.
"Oh well, I'm sure he doesn't care." Daryl said as the two waited for the rest to fill the room for the meeting.
When the meeting was finally over, Laura got up from her seat and checked the time, it was already 5pm, so she figured to go get something to eat at the cafeteria section. When she walked over to the soda machine, she glanced quickly and saw Randy Orton standing next to her. 'Oh just fuckin' great.' She thought to herself. She got her soda quickly and walked past Randy. But he followed her and stopped her.
"Oh, so I don't get a hello? Am I invisible?" Randy asked looking at Laura frustrated.
"What the hells your problem Randy, I said I was done with you, and I meant it. So get your head out of your ass and leave me alone." She said walking away.
Randy couldn't believe he just got told off by his ex-girlfriend. 'Just wait..I'll get her.' Randy thought to himself as he watched her walk away.
Laura kept walking while opening her Sunkist soda, she went to put her purse down on a nearby table to put her money away, she zipped up her purse, turned around with her bottle still open and spilt her drink all over the place, she looked up and she saw a familiar face. 'Not again.' She thought to herself.
Yep, it was him…Paul London. "Twice in one day, my God what's wrong with me!?" Laura said aloud looking at Paul. Paul laughed and looked at her. She looked so nervous, so confused.
Laura began to walk away. "Laura, come back. It's not a big deal, I don't care. I can clean it up." Paul said, as Laura turned back around. She helped Paul clean the mess off of his shirt and the floor. Just then Ashley came over and kissed Paul. "Hey baby" Ashley said giggling. "What did the new girl make a mess?" She said getting a pissy attitude. "Ashley." Paul said hinting for her to stop.
"Oh sorry baby." Ashley said laughing "It's like totally just an instinct. I cant help it." Laura rolled her eyes listening to the way Ashley talked. Paul saw this and kind of smirked.
"Ashley, I'll meet you for dinner in a few, just go hang around the cafeteria." Paul said sounding annoyed. She listened to him and headed over to the cafeteria.
"So, welcome to RAW. If you need anything, anything at all, don't hesitate to ask me. I know your good friends with Daryl, and she and I are friends, she's told me some good things about you, so has Jillian." Paul said smiling. "See you around." He looked back at her as he walked away.
Laura realized she had barely said a word to him, she couldn't speak around him, she was…speechless.
She just stood there frozen, until he felt a nudge. "Laura wake up, what are you doing." Jillian said nudging her from behind. Jillian looked at the direction Laura was looking in and saw Paul walking away.
"Whats wrong Laura, I've never seen you speechless like this." Jillian asked a bit concerned.
"I wish I knew, I really just…wish I knew." Laura said to herself sighing.
