Disclaimer: I only own Elizabeth. WWE is owned by Vince McMahon.
Chapter Six:
"Ugh!" Elizabeth remarked nearly two weeks later, The Great American Bash had passed and the title hand changed hands. John was no longer the WWE Champion, it was now Mr. Kennedy, Randy was Intercontinental, Melina was still Woman's Champ, and the Tag Champs were Cryme Tyme.
"Come on, Liz! It's easier if we get to know each other."
"I know myself, and you know me."
"Not the real Elizabeth."
"Come on, Steph. This is bullshit, look. We have to be at the arena in an hour." Elizabeth spoke to her sister. "I don't want to tell you about my life."
"Elizzzzaaaabeettttthhhhhh!" Stephanie whined.
"Whining gets you no where. May have got you everywhere with Vince, but he's…dead." Elizabeth nodded, smiling at her sister's annoyed reaction.
"I do know, daddy is gone."
"Good, he's gone and not coming back." Elizabeth smirked before standing up. She pulled her halter top down a little bit, and then held her hand out to Stephanie who was lying on the hotel room's bed. Stephanie took her hand and stood up.
"Paul's going to meet us at the arena right?"
"Yea."
"Good, because I definitely want to spend some time with my beautiful niece."
Stephanie smiled at her sister. "So, when are you going to have kids?"
Elizabeth grabbed her purse off the bed. "We have to meet Linda and Marissa at Antonio's." Antonio's was a small Italian restaurant. The McMahon women were going to eat before RAW starts.
Stephanie could see that Elizabeth was avoiding the question.
"Okay, I get it… I know what's wrong here." Stephanie grabbed her purse off the dresser and then was by Elizabeth's side. Elizabeth was holding open the door.
She looked at Stephanie and looked at her up and down. "You do?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, I should've never asked because well…you're only 18."
"Exactly." Stephanie walked thru the door way and Elizabeth followed, shutting the door.
----
"Linda! Marissa!" Elizabeth exclaimed as she hugged Linda and Marissa, placing kisses on their cheeks.
Elizabeth sat down in her chair as Stephanie did the same.
"How are you both?" Linda asked.
"I'm great, besides the fact that your daughter asked me earlier if I was going to have kids any time soon."
Stephanie looked down.
"Steph." Linda replied, as Marissa laughed.
"She's only 18, Steph. Give the girl time." Marissa spoke as she began to look thru a menu.
"Exactly." Elizabeth spoke to Stephanie as she stuck out her tongue.
Stephanie rolled her eyes as the conversation died down and the McMahon women ordered their food.
----
Elizabeth was sitting in her office, later that night. She was in her chair, at her desk while talking to Triple H who was holding a sleeping Aurora.
"Yea," Elizabeth agree. "Only two more weeks until Summerslam. I know the fans are awaiting your return."
"I know, I can't wait."
"Same here. I finally get to see you in live action. Well, I'll be in the back watching." Elizabeth rolled her eyes. "Man, the fans are so excited!"
"The fans or you?"
"Mainly me, but still…" Elizabeth giggled.
"Z, do you like being a McMahon?"
Elizabeth looked at him. "Yea." She replied truthfully. "At first it was awkward and everything, but now that I've kinda opened up, I feel so close and loved. Wanted and respected. All those things I never thought I never would feel."
"I'm glad you feel that. We love you, Elizabeth."
Elizabeth gave a sad smile.
"What's wrong?"
"I…I want to say I love y'all back, but, I don't know if I could ever tell anyone I love them. I don't have that right."
"Everyone has that right."
"No, they don't. Honestly, I've never been loved before. I don't know exactly what it is. And when I do open up my heart and have something close to love it blows up in my face. It always does, I'm just waiting until it happens now." Elizabeth turned on her laptop that was resting on her desk and began to type.
----
Triple H had left almost ten minutes later to take Aurora to the hotel, Stephanie went with him feeling Elizabeth could handle Raw by herself. Plus, Shane and Linda were at the arena too. They would be there if she needed anything.
Elizabeth's office door barged opened. Elizabeth looked up and glared. "My office has a door for a reason, it's called knocking. K. N. O. C. K. I. N. G!"
The person who barged into the room rolled their eyes.
"Don't roll your eyes at me, I can fire you if I want!"
"You wouldn't fire me, I'm Raw's WWE Champion…Mrrrrrrrrrr--."
Elizabeth cut him off. "I know who you are, you're on the payroll. Which, if you come into my office like that again, I will remove you.
"What do you want Kennedy?"
"I want a match, tonight against that banana boy, Orton."
"Why?" Elizabeth began playing with her finger nails.
"Because, he keeps looking at me funny."
"Oh, pah-lease!" Elizabeth stood up. "I have people looking at me funny all the damn time. Get used to it Kennedy. Everyone always looks at you. You have a big mouth; you want people to look at you as you say your name. Over and over. I think we got it by now. You're Ken Kennedy, Mr. Ken Kennedy. Everyone take fucking notice! We have a big ass loud mouth, cocky, WWE Champion on the damn roster! Kennedy, get the fuck out of my sight right now, I'm not happy. And, you want your match. You got it, but now…it's a triple threat match, tonight for your title. You, Randy Orton and John Cena!"
Kennedy looked at Elizabeth in shock, he walked to the door but turned back to look at her. "People are right."
"Excuse me?"
"You're a true McMahon. Don't take shit from anyone. Only difference is…well, you got a heart. A lot to give. You'll make someone real happy one day."
Elizabeth looked at Kennedy as he walked out of the room. Her mouth was open slightly in shock. Did he really mean that?
----
"Come on, Beth." Melina placed her arm around Beth. "You should just let me win at Summerslam, and I'll give you another opportunity at my title."
Beth looked at Melina. "No way, Melina. I'm going to take that title from you." Beth took Melina's arm off of her.
Melina glared at Beth. "You aren't getting my title. I'll DQ myself before I let you take something I worked hard for!"
"And I didn't?"
"No! You didn't."
"Yes, she did." A voice from behind cut in, she had a bottle of orange juice in her hand. "Melina, seriously, if you want to DQ yourself to win the title. You aren't the woman I thought you were. Beth is, or was, or is supposed to be your friend. Hun, you can't DQ yourself."
Melina glared. "And why not?"
"Because, your match is now…a ladder match. Meaning, there is no DQ. Just climb the ladder and retrieve your title. If Beth doesn't do it before you do, that is."
"I hate you!" Melina replied as she pushed passed Elizabeth.
"Doesn't everyone. Man, soon I'm going to have to wear a bullet proof vest with all these haters."
"Isn't that the truth?" Beth spoke to Elizabeth. "Thanks for having my back, I owe you one."
"Just kick Melina's ass and take that title and you don't owe me anything." Elizabeth laughed. "I'm Elizabeth, I know we met before but I guess I should formally introduce myself."
"I'm Beth, short for Elizabeth. You stole my name." Beth placed her hand over her heart in a joking manor.
"Hey, I didn't. Blame the parents."
"Yea, it always comes back to them."
Elizabeth nodded. "I agree."
Beth smiled. "Hey, I got to go. It was nice meeting you."
"I know." The general manager smirked. "You too."
Beth walked away.
----
Almost thirty minutes later, Elizabeth was alone in the catering area. She had went in there to get a bottle of water and was just leaving. She took a sip of it. It was a sudden movement when everything went dark. She gripped her hand tightly on her water bottle and she felt it over flow and went down her hands, making them cold as the water was icy. She heard water splash on the floor and suddenly the room was filled with red smoke. She went to run forward, but slipped on the water that was on the floor. She fell back hard. She felt a presence over her and screamed. Her scream pierced the room and she was surprised if half of the arena didn't hear it. She stopped screaming because her throat began to hurt.
The catering room lights turned on, and she seen someone with worms in their mouth. They were standing over her. She let out a loud scream and felt a worm fall on head.
"Boogeyman!" a man screamed, running to Elizabeth's aid. He pushed Boogeyman away from Elizabeth and some worms fell out his mouth and landed in Elizabeth's hair.
Elizabeth squealed. The man helped her up. She looked at him and he picked the worms out her hair.
"Are you okay?"
"Who are you?" Elizabeth looked at him.
"I'm Paul, Paul London."
"Ohhh. Right." Elizabeth spoke. "Thanks for saving my ass." Elizabeth went to look at where the Boogeyman was but he was gone. "Whoa…who was that guy?"
"The Boogeyman. He's on ECW. He turns up everywhere."
"And disappears everywhere, as well?" Elizabeth rolled her eyes and noticed that her hand was still on Paul's from when he helped her up. She removed it from him.
"I should go." She nodded to him. "Gotta take a shower."
"Yeah, see you around."
"See ya." She turned around and limped away from the scene.
----
Elizabeth knocked on the Woman's locker room door and walked in.
"Hey, ladies."
"Hey, Z! It's just me." Mickie replied. "..Why are you wet?"
"Well..." Elizabeth began to explain the situation to Mickie.
"What's up with you and Paul?" Mickie asked once Elizabeth was finished explaining things.
"Nothing."
"Seriously? I'm going to ask him."
"Ugh, Mickie don't. He just helped me out, that's all. Besides, I like someone remember. Rainbow colored hair, he's so sexy, he like screams "taste the rainbow"."
"And you so want to taste him!" Mickie stuck out her tongue.
Elizabeth rolled her eyes at the diva. "Whatever. The reason I'm here is because my office doesn't have a shower, and I don't have a change of clothes with me." Elizabeth puffed out her lip while looking at Mickie.
"You don't even have to ask." Mickie replied as she walked to her locker to get Elizabeth some clothes.
----
Elizabeth left the shower area and walked into he locker room.
"Hey, Z!" Maria's perky voice called.
"Hey, Maria, Jillian, Candice. How are you all?"
"Good." They answered in unison.
"We heard about the Boogeyman attacking you. Actually, it's more like saw."
Elizabeth raised an eyebrow. "Saw?"
"It was on air."
"Everyone seen me falling on my ass!?" Elizabeth screamed, loudly than she anticipated.
"Yea…" Candice said. "But, it's not like that…I guess. They also saw what happened with Paul London."
"Ugh, what happened was he was helping me out. I don't like him in that way."
The woman's locker room door opened and Melina walked thru it smirking. "Hardy's looking for you."
"Then he can keep on looking just like you keep on hoeing." Elizabeth replied as she pushed passed Melina and walked out of the door.
-----
Once Raw was over Elizabeth was waiting in the parking lot for Shane to walk out and take her to the hotel where she would spend a quite evening typing on her laptop, reading a few chapters of a book she brought two weeks ago while sipping hot cocoa and going into a dreamless sleep.
Of course, fate had other plans.
"Elizabeth! Elizabeth!" she heard a voice call as they ran up to her, she turned around.
"Randy!" they shared a hug.
"I have been looking for you. Want to come party tonight?"
"Nah, tonight it's going to be a quite night to get my thoughts together."
"Sounds fun." Randy replied sarcastically.
"I'm not you Randy, I don't enjoy the party life. I just like to be by myself sometimes. I like the quite life. I've had too many wild nights when I was younger. Lots of experiences with fake IDs." Elizabeth nodded and then smiled at Randy. "You go and you have fun."
"Won't be the same without you."
"I know, babe. But, relax. You'll do fine on your own." Elizabeth replied, she gave Randy a shove. "Now leave me be."
Once Randy walked away grinning, Shane had finally come out with Marissa.
"Elizabeth, Marissa and I are going out tonight and mom already left, we aren't stopping at the hotel. I know that you don't like partying too much so I hooked you up with a ride."
Elizabeth nodded. "Okay, who?"
"They should be out in a second." Shane replied. He hugged Elizabeth and kissed her forehead, Marissa did the same and they left.
"Bye." Elizabeth replied, she wondered who would be taking her back to the hotel. Suddenly hands were placed over her eyes. She turned around fast and raised her foot to kick the person in their balls. Elizabeth hands went to her mouth and she looked down in shock at the person she kicked. He was holding his…ya know.
"Jeff…I am so sorry."
"You better hope I can drive in this condition."
"I do hope, I plan on reading my book tonight and it's getting really good."
"Your book?" he asked.
"The book I brought at the store. I own it, making it mine." She replied.
"Right." Jeff stood up right and walked with Elizabeth to his car. He opened the door for her and then got into the driver's side of the car.
The ride to the hotel was nearly silent, which Elizabeth couldn't stand.
"Jeff?"
"Yea, Z?"
"Thanks, for everything."
"For what?"
"For being there for me."
Jeff nodded. "Always."
----
Once Jeff parked the car Elizabeth got out and he walked her to her hotel room. She opened the door and invited him in.
"What was up with you and Paul London?"
"Nothing." Elizabeth replied as she sat down on the bed. Jeff sat down next to her. "He was just helping me out."
"Oh." Jeff replied. "Do you have feelings for him?"
Elizabeth looked at Jeff. "No, I don't."
"Are you sure?" he asked again.
"Uh, yeah. Why wouldn't I be sure?"
"Because, I don't know…do you…have feelings for anyone?"
"Jeff, you are so stupid." Elizabeth looked at Jeff. He was about to speak when Elizabeth placed her lips on his.
Jeff kissed back, and soon their tongues were added to the mix. That night, Elizabeth's quite night alone was anything but. What she wanted to be a quite night was a night of passion and love making.
