Hey everyone! Thanks for all the reviews I have been getting! You guys are awesome! Anyways, here's the next chapter, hope you like it! And please review, because it keeps me going!
Laura
She thrusts her hips forward and he groans, looking into her eyes. She can see the hunger and lust in his eyes as his lips lower onto hers again. He nips at her lower lip and their tongues dance together. Suddenly, behind them, someone clears their throat.
"Look at them go," The male voice says, laughing.
Dave sets Nikki down and turns to see Randy and Courtney standing there. Nikki turns bright red and grasps Dave's arm.
"What do you want, Orton?" Dave asks, glaring at the younger man.
"Hey, chill out big man. We didn't mean to interrupt," Randy replies, spying the mark on Nikki's neck, "what happened to you neck, Nik?"
Nikki blushes again as Randy chuckles.
"Get out of here," Dave growls, moving in front of Nikki.
"Geez, touchy," Randy says, holding his hands up in mock surrender, "come on Courtney."
"Bye Nik," Courtney waves, "we'll talk about this later."
They walk away and Dave turns to Nikki, who still is a crimson color. He slowly steps closer, running his hands across her cheek.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that," Dave says softly, "I understand if you don't want to talk to me."
He turns to walk away, but Nikki grabs his arm. He turns back to her and she shoves him against the wall.
"My turn," she says as she leans in kissing him again.
Evolution's locker room
"Where the hell are those two?" Paul demands, pacing around the room.
Just then, the door opens and Dave and Nikki walk in. They're both flushed and Paul narrows his eyes.
"Sorry, we were talking," Dave says, glancing over to her.
Nikki flips her hair over one shoulder and Paul sees the marks on her neck. She looks up to see him staring at her.
"Something wrong?" She questions, raising an eyebrow.
"Uh, no," Paul smirks, "what happened to your neck?"
"Burnt it with the curling iron," Nikki replies quickly.
Paul nods and watches as Dave walks over to her. He leans down and whispers something into her ear and she nods.
"Ready?" Ric asks.
"Why don't you three go ahead. I need to go find someone," Paul replies, grabbing his bag, "see you at the hotel."
Ric, Dave, and Nikki leave and Paul heads down the hall. He knocks on a door and it opens.
"Good, you're still here. I have a business proposition for you," Paul smirks, "get rid of Nikki Andrews."
"My pleasure," the other man replies, chuckling.
Back at the Hotel
Dave hears the shower go off and he smiles. 'She kissed me back,' he thinks, 'wait, what are you doing? Don't rush it, you'll lose her!' The door opens and Nikki walks out wearing PJ pants and an Evolution t-shirt.
"Sorry about your neck," Dave rubs the mark on her neck.
"Don't worry about it," Nikki smiles, "It was worth it."
Dave chuckles softly and wraps his arms around her. Nikki kisses him on the lips and Dave pulls back, gazing into her eyes.
"What are we doing?" Dave asks softly, sighing.
"Don't you want to kiss me?" Nikki pouts, but he doesn't laugh, "what's wrong?"
"I don't want to rush this," Dave replies, "can we take this slow?"
Nikki nods and walks over to the bed and grabs her cell.
"What are you doing?" He asks, watching her intently.
"Calling Courtney. She wanted to hang out tonight," She replies.
"You're mad, aren't you?" he states, crossing his arms over his chest.
"No, of course not, you want to take it slow, that's fine," Nikki lies turning to him, "then why the hell did you kiss me like that? Wait, I don't want to know. I'm leaving."
"Nikki…" Dave starts but she slams the door, causing him to flinch.
Nikki looks up from her shot of vodka to see Courtney at the back of the bar. As Courtney walks up, she sees the empty shot glasses in front of Nikki.
"What's wrong?" She asks, as the bartender walks up, "I'll have a white wine spritzer."
Nikki downs her shot and tears come to her eyes.
"No one loves me!" Nikki slurs as Courtney shakes her head.
"How many shots have you had?" She asks, taking a sip of her spritzer.
"1…2…5," Nikki shrugs and then giggles.
"I'll take that as a lot. Why don't you head back to your room?"
"I hate Dave, and he hates me!"
"I'm sure he doesn't hate you sweetie."
Nikki just rolls her eyes and takes another shot.
"Why am I wasting my breath when you can't understand a word I'm saying," Courtney says with a sigh.
Nikki's head hits the bar as Courtney grabs her cell and walks away, dialing Dave's number. On the second ring, he picks up.
"Dave this is Courtney. I think you better come down to the bar quick," she says as she watches Nikki down another shot.
"Why?" Dave questions.
"Nikki's drunk off her ass," Courtney replies.
"I'll be down soon," Dave sighs hanging up.
Courtney joins Nikki back at the bar and soon she sees Dave walk in. Her spots them and walks over to them.
"Come on Nik, time to go to bed," Dave states, grasping her hand.
"Don't touch me!" Nikki slurs, pulling her hand away and almost falling off her chair.
Dave catches her and pulls her up. She tries to fight him off, but he just sighs and throws her over his shoulder.
"Put me down!" she yells as Dave turns to Courtney.
"Take care of her," Courtney says smiling.
"I will, 'Night," Dave walks away with Nikki pounding on his back.
"Put me down you bastard," she demands.
"No."
"Why are you doing this, you stupid son of a …" Nikki stops, "wow."
"What?" Dave asks stopping.
"You have a nice ass!" Nikki exclaims in amazement, "I bet you could bounce a quarter off an ass like yours!"
Dave chuckles as they arrive at the room. He walks into the room and lays Nikki down on the bed. As he stands up, she grabs his arm and pulls him down onto her.
"Nikki, what are you doing?" Dave asks, looking down into her eyes.
She kisses him and he pulls away.
"We can't, you're drunk," Dave says, getting off the bed.
"No I'm not," she objects grabbing at him.
"Alright, what's 2+2?" he asks, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Hold on…I know this," Nikki giggles, counting on her fingers, "7!"
"Goodnight Nikki," Dave sighs, shaking his head, sitting down on his bed.
"but I'm not…" Nikki trails off, passing out into a deep sleep.
Dave shakes his head and turns off the light.
The Next Morning
Dave wakes up to find Nikki's bed empty. He hears someone in the bathroom and gets up. He knocks on the door and he hears Nikki throwing up. Dave pushes open the door and he sees Nikki next to the toilet. He crouches down next to her and gathers her hair and holds it up as she throws up again. She flushes the toilet and looks up at him.
"Thanks," she mumbles as he hands her a clean cloth.
"No problem," Dave replies, getting up and getting her a glass of water and an aspirin.
"Ugh, I feel like crap," she says as she takes the water and the pill.
Dave takes the glass of water back from her and helps her up and back to bed.
"I'm going to call Paul and tell him we won't be at the show today," Dave says picking up the phone.
"Dave, I'll be fine, you should go," Nikki states as Dave holds up a hand to silence her.
"Hey Paul, this is Dave. Listen, Nikki and I won't be able to make it to the show tonight. Yeah, see you later," Dave hangs up and turns to Nikki, "so, what do you want to do today?"
"Dave you should really go to the show," Nikki says sitting up slowly.
"I don't need to. What do you want to do today?" he asks again, as she sighs.
"I could go for some breakfast," Nikki gives in as Dave smiles.
"Alright, I'll order us some breakfast," Dave picks up the phone to order the food, "why don't you go take a hot bath Nik, I'll take care of this."
Nikki nods and gets out of bed, heading back into the bathroom. She fills the tub and slides into the hot water. There's a knock at the door and Dave pokes his head in.
"Food is going to be here in about fifteen minutes," Dave says staring at Nikki.
The bubbles surround her and her legs are hanging out over the edge.
"Thanks Dave," she replies, closing her eyes.
Dave shuts the door and Nikki takes her bath. Just as the food arrives, Nikki emerges from the bathroom in a fluffy robe. Nikki smiles as Dave sets the food on the table.
"It looks good," Nikki says, sitting down next to Dave.
They eat in silence and soon the food is gone. Dave sits down next to Nikki on the bed and flips to a movie.
"Can we pick up some junk food?" Nikki asks looking up at Dave.
"Sure," he replies, "and we can get some movies too, just let me go get cleaned up."
Dave takes his shower and Nikki dresses in pj pants and a sweatshirt. Soon, they're on their way to the grocery store. They grab a cart and start to throw things into the cart. They pass the liquor aisle and Dave chuckles.
"Want some booze?" he smirks as Nikki sends him a death glare.
"Shove it," Nikki growls as they head to the check out.
They pay for their food and head to the movie gallery. After picking out movies, Dave and Nikki head back to the hotel. They pop in a movie and sit together on Nikki's bed. Nikki is leaning against Dave and his arm is around her shoulder. There's a knock at the door and Dave gets up to answer it.
"Oh hey Courtney," Dave says as Courtney enters the room.
"Hey Dave, how's she doing?" Courtney asks, waving at Nikki.
"She's doing better. Today is just a relax day," Dave explains, sitting down next to Nikki.
"Sounds like fun. Well, I just wanted to see how she was doing," Courtney says as she wiggles her eyebrows at Nikki.
"Goodbye Courtney," Nikki states firmly, getting up and shoving her towards the door.
"I want details!" Courtney yells out, as Nikki shuts the door in her face, "sorry about that,"
"That wasn't very nice," Dave says, chucking, pulling Nikki down to his lap.
"I know," Nikki replies, wrapping her arms around his neck.
"You're so mean," Dave says as he starts to kiss her neck softly as Nikki giggles.
"I'll apologize later," Nikki replies kissing his lips tenderly.
Dave lays her down on the bed and kisses her softly. As they start to make-out, Dave's phone rings. He pulls away and curses.
"Yeah?" Dave says angrily.
"Calm down big man, it's just me," Paul replies, "I need to talk to you."
"About what?"
"Next week."
Monday Night Raw 11-29-04
Evolution walks into the arena and head to their locker room.
"I'm going to see Courtney," Nikki announces as Paul nods.
"Fine, see you," Paul says, almost pushing her out the door.
Dave watches her leave and Paul turns to him.
"What's going on with you two?" Paul demands, crossing his arms across his chest.
"Nothing, just chill," Dave replies with a shrug.
"If I find out that something's going on…"Paul warns as Dave steps closer.
"You'll what?" Dave asks, his anger rising, "you don't own me."
"I made you damn it!" Paul yells as Ric pulls him back, "I can get her fired easily."
"Leave her alone Champ, She's a good kid," Ric jumps in.
"Keep your mind on Evolution, not on some bitch," Paul warns, storming out of the room.
Randy's locker room
"Oh thank you Randy!" Courtney exclaims, hugging him tightly.
"No problem babe," Randy shrugs, lazily wrapping an arm around Courtney's waist.
The door opens and Nikki walks in as they part.
"Nikki! Guess what! You're looking at Randy's new valet!" Courtney squeals, rushing to her.
Nikki hugs her and Courtney pulls away.
"So…details! Is he a good kisser?" Courtney questions with a smirk.
"Courtney!" Nikki exclaims then smiles, "he's the best!"
They giggle as Randy rolls his eyes.
"You two are crazy," Randy says, shaking his head.
"What else happened?" Courtney asks, ignoring Randy's comment.
Nikki proceeds to tell her about what happened last week and afterward Courtney smiles.
"So are you two a couple?" She asks softly.
"I honestly don't know," Nikki shrugs, standing up, "I better get back."
They hug and Nikki heads back to the locker room. Before she reaches it, she's pulled into a dark, empty locker room. Nikki goes to scream, but a mouth covers hers, kissing her hand. She pulls back and hits the man.
"Dave! You asshole!" Nikki exclaims as Dave chuckles.
"So sue me," Dave replies, leaning down and nipping at her neck.
"What happened to slow?" Nikki gasps, wrapping her arms around his strong neck.
"This is slow," Dave says, his lips finding hers, as his hands slide down to her ass.
"I think Paul is on to us," Nikki states, causing Dave to look up into her eyes.
"Don't even talk about that bastard," Dave growls, "he 'forbids' me to see you."
"What? That's stupid," Nikki says angrily, "it's none of his business."
"We'll have to keep this under wraps," Dave sighs.
"You don't want to be seen with me?" Nikki states, "I can't believe it."
Dave kisses her hard, but she pulls away.
"I don't want to hide it," Dave explains.
"Then don't."
Nikki walks out the door and Dave follows. He grabs her hand and pulls her next to him. They walk into Evolution's locker room, hand in hand. Paul and Ric look up and Ric smiles.
"Hey you two," Ric says as Dave wraps his arms around her waist.
"Hey Ric," Dave returns the smile, "Paul."
Paul watches as Dave pulls Nikki into him and gives her a breathtaking kiss. Ric turns to see Paul fuming. Dave pulls back and smirks at Paul.
"Can you get me a water babe?" Dave asks, his eyes not leaving Paul.
Nikki nods and quickly leaves the room. Dave ignores Paul's glares as he goes through his bag.
"You're pushing it," Paul warns, standing up.
"Like I said, you don't own me," Dave says, turning around.
"Guys, calm down," Ric tries to get them apart.
Nikki returns to find Dave and Paul nose-to-nose getting ready to punch each other.
"Hey!" Nikki yells, "cut it out!"
All three turn to look at her. She steps in between the two men and turns to Paul.
"Here's a water for you," Nikki says, handing a water to Paul and Dave, "come on, back off you guys."
"You're just pissed because I'm getting more than you ever will," Dave smirks as Paul glares at him.
"You son of a bitch!" Paul goes to punch Dave, but Nikki turns around and his fist comes in contact with her face.
Nikki falls to the ground, her hands cradling her head. Dave lunges for Paul as Ric checks on Nikki.
"You ok?" Ric asks, concern in his eyes.
Nikki nods and Ric stands up, breaking apart the two men.
"Enough!" Ric yells, "look at what happened."
Dave and Paul turn to see Nikki on the ground, her hands covering her face. Dave kneels down and sees a black eye forming. Dave helps her up and warps an arm around her.
"Let's go get some ice," Dave says softly.
They walk out of the room and down to the trainer. They get some ice and head back to the room.
"Listen Nik, I'm sorry," Paul says as they walk into the locker room.
"It's alright. It was an accident," Nikki replies, smiling, "let's get ready for Raw. The show starts in 15."
Dave goes to get ready and there's a knock at the door and in walks Vince McMahon.
"Hello Vince," Paul says casually, giving a small wave to his father in law, "what are you doing here?"
"Just letting you know that you'll face who ever wins the Battle Royal tonight," Vince replies as he spots Nikki with ice over her eye, "what happened to you?"
"Just an accident," Nikki says, glancing at Paul.
Vince nods and turns his attention to Paul. They talk for a while and Dave joins them. Vince leaves and Dave starts to warm up for the battle royal, that is the first match on the card.
"Good luck," Nikki says, placing a hand on his arm.
"Thanks," Dave softly touches the dark bruise around her eye.
"Hey," Nikki states, looking deep into his eyes, "it wasn't your fault."
"I know, but I feel bad," Dave replies, softly kissing her swollen eye.
"You go win that match, alright?"
Dave nods and kisses her. He heads out of the room and down to the ring. Nikki watches the match and shakes her head as Dave is tossed out, leaving Adam and Chris. Dave storms into the room to see Adam and Chris declared the winner, setting up the triple threat match for tonight.
"This should be interesting," Nikki says to him.
Dave nods and sighs, turning to see Ric storm into the room with Paul following.
"Why'd you toss me over the top rope!" Ric demands angrily.
"It was every man for himself, I'm sorry," Dave replies as Ric starts to calm down.
"What are we going to do?" Ric asks frantically.
"Paul can handle it," Dave replies as Raw cuts to commercial, "he can do it without us."
Later after Paul's match
"Where the hell were you?" Paul screams at Dave, who just sits there.
"I came out once, I thought you could handle them," Dave shrugs, looking around, "where's Nik?"
"Don't worry about her, we're dealing with business," Paul states, smirking.
Nikki grabs Paul's water and turns around, bumping into someone.
"Oh, I'm so…." Nikki trails off, her eyes going wide in shock.
"It's alright sweet thing," Gene replies, grasping her arm tightly.
Nikki winces as he pulls her close. She struggles against him and he just laughs.
"Where do you think you're going?" Gene asks, his free hand running down her body.
"Don't touch me," Nikki hisses, smacking him across his cheek, leaving a red mark.
He growls and his grip tightens, causing her to yelp. He brings his hand up, getting ready to strike her, but someone grasps his arm before he hits her.
"Don't you fucking touch her."
Gene whirls around to see Dave standing there, pissed.
"Let her go," Dave demands, pointing to Nikki.
Gene scoffs and pushes Nikki to Dave. She stumbles and he catches her as Gene walks away.
"Are you alright? Did he hurt you?" Dave asks, concern in his eyes.
"I'm fine, don't worry," Nikki replies softly.
"I can't help it. I care about you too much," Dave replies, smiling, "tonight's not your night is it?"
Nikki giggles and agrees as they head back. Before they enter the locker room, Dave stops her and pulls her into him.
"What are you doing?" Nikki asks, smiling up at him.
"Nikki, I've never felt this away about someone before, not even Angie. I know we just started 'dating', but I'm falling in love with you," Dave says softly, pulling her into a kiss.
They kiss but they don't notice Paul watching them from the doorway.
"Just wait Dave, she'll be gone soon enough."
There ya go! Sorry it took so long, but I didn't know how to finish this chapter. For you that read Have A Little Faith In Me, I'm stuck on that chapter, and I'm trying so hard to figure it out, so look for it soon! Please review and the next will be coming soon!
