Chapter 12
Thanks for the amazing reviews
**Three months later**
Sheamus and Lori hadn't changed anything. They still slept in the same room, traveled together and they were about to start their story line together. With Drew. They had decided to get the story line out-of-the-way before they started a relationship but both were finding it extremely hard. There had been no hugs, kisses and no physical contact. No more shower incidents and talking about their feelings.
It was Smackdown! and tonight was the night Sheamus began his storyline with Lori. Sheamus had a surprise opponent and in the middle of the match, while Sheamus was struggling, she had to run down to the ring, encouraging him. Not even Sheamus knew who his opponent was but Lori had been warned by Vince not to take it personally. They both automatically pinned Drew as their opponent as not very many people had heard from him. Lori knocked on the champs door and waited for an answer. He yelled 'its open!' and she let herself in.
"Nervous?" She asked. Everytime she talked to him, she got butterflies in her tummy. No scratch that. They were more like eagles. He smiled and cocked his head.
"Me nervous? Please!" He spluttered. She laughed and took a seat on his sofa, switching on his television to watch the show.
"Still no idea who your opponent is?" She asked, keeping her eyes on the current match. Kofi Kingston vs The Miz. So far it was impressive but she couldnt concentrate with Sheamus in the same room. He felt the same. He had no clue how he was supposed to win this match tonight. Especially since he knew who he was facing. Vince had scolded and warned him - and Drew - not to tell Lori who the opponent was. Her reaction would be better if she was kept in the dark. He hated lying to her. He knew that if she found out, she would hate him forever.
He finished spiking his hair. Time to face the music. Lori stood up, as if she had a timer, right on cue and left with the Irish Brawler.
"Be careful out there. I'll see you soon." She patted him on the back. He smiled warmly and walked out as his music stared blasting through into the arena. She was ushered to a different corner as the backstage people tried to stop her seeing who came out. She faintly heard the music but she couldn't distinguish it. She was kept in the sound proof room until I was time to leave. She tied up her wrestling boots, made sure her hair was in place before stepping out.
Samantha was standing right outside the room. She was about to warn Lori of who was in the ring when the stagehand dragged her away. Randy ran up to him and nearly kicked his head off. Lori just kept walking, a grin on her face. She was ushered o the correct position. She heard someone mumbling about Sheamus being genuinely hurt. She swiftly turned to be met with one of the doctors.
"Are you about to go out there?" He asked. He was a large man and he had really bad breath.
"Yeah why?"
"I think he may have injured his arm, can you send me a signal if he has?" He asked, sounding hopeful. Lori nodded, extremely worried. She took a quick look at the screen to see Sheamus lying on the ground, writhing in pain. She shot out from behind that curtain in a flash, springing down to the ring. His 'secret' opponent rolled out the other side, ducking down so she couldnt see him.
Lori crawled over to Sheamus, putting his arms underneath his head.
"You okay?" She asked, running her fingers over his cheek. He shook his head and signalled to the back. Two medics rushed down with a bag in hand to help him out. The bell was rung but no winner was announced. Lori went to exit the ring through the second rope when someone grabbed her hand from behind. She spun on her heel to face the one person she never wanted to see again.
Ted.
"Is he okay?" He asked quite out of breath. Lori squared up to him. Getting close to his face.
"No thanks to you!" She screamed. Ted looked into her eyes shocked.
"We need to talk." He said slowly. No apology.
"What about. I fucking hate you!" She screamed, slapping him clean across his face. Ted looked at her, She ducked as she saw him raise his fist. Instead, he bent down to her and whispered in her ear.
"We need to talk about me and you. I cheated on you." He grinned and turned around to face the crowd, throwing his arms up in the air. She straightened up, walking towards him, she retracted her leg backwards and swung it right between his legs. It was now her turn to leave the ring, savouring the crowds cheers as she walked backstage.
She immediately went to find Sheamus. She looked everywhere, even the medic room before returning o his locker room to wait for him. Tears were no escaping her eyes. She had just been told that her ex-boyfriend had cheated on her. On live TV. She would have gone after him with a gun if there had been no crowd. She entered the locker-room, tears streaming down her face by now. Her arm was pulled from behind again. She automatically turned around and punched the person square in the jaw.
"What the fuck was that for!" He cried. She was about to apologise, but she registered who it was.
"Get away from me now, or I'll scream." She said through gritted teeth. Drew stood in front of her, grinning, holding his jaw.
"I'm only here to bring you more good news." He said sarcastically. She never replied, instead, stopping to listen to what he had to say.
"I was with Sheamus when Vince told him who his opponent was. He knew all this time but he thought it would be funny when Ted told you he cheated on you." Drew grinned but Lori staggered.
"And I'm supposed to believe you? Bitch Please!" She slammed the door in his face, ignoring the banging on the door. She swiftly locked it and threw herself onto the sofa. Sheamus came out of the shower to see her lying down, crying. He ran to her.
"Sweetie, What happened?" He asked, sounding concerned. She looked up at the man she loved. Loved? She ignored the voice in her heart as she proceeded to tell him.
"Ted stopped me in the ring and... wait." She paused looking into his eyes, sensing the concern. "Did you know Ted was you opponent tonight?" She asked. Sheamus shifted onto his feet, not answering.
She knew his answer already. He had lied to her. The one thing she hated in a man had came out of the man she loved. She picked herself up and after looking him in the eyes, she shook her head disappointingly and left.
Hope ya'll like it :)
