Dani had sat with Mike for the majority of the five hour plane ride. Luckily, she moved back to her original plane seat before her brother Nick woke up from his slumber.

The siblings exited the plane silently with their hands in their jean pockets and their eyes ahead.

"Have a nice time?" Nick asked with a sly edge to his voice.

Dani nodded vigorously and grabbed her luggage from a conveyor belt. "You bet, I haven't gotten to watch you sleep since 11th grade!" She chirped with sarcasm dripping off each word.

Nick gave a stifled laugh and nodded as they walked out of the airport simultaneously. "So, how do you like being in the WWE?"

Dani thought for a moment as they got into a car. "It's cool. I've met some great people." She finished as her mind was filled with Cody and Mike. She glanced out the window of the car and saw one of the men who were filling her thoughts.

Mike strolled out of the airport, luggage in hand and got into a different car.

"Oh no..." Nicl=k said flatly. " I forgot Mizanin's from Cleveland as well."

Dani raised and eyebrow and cocked her head to the side. "Is that a bad thing?" She asked inquisitively.

Nick sighed "He's the enemy Dani, any extra second I have to spend around him is terrible." He replied smoothing back his blonde hair.

Dani's spirit fell as she glanced out the window again. This was going to be tough to explain.

Dani and Nick were met at home by their aunts and uncles, cousins and parents. Dani talked idly with her three girl cousins, Tara, Maxine, or Max for short, and Alex.

"So you've finally become famous?" Tara asked as a small smile crept across her face.

Dani nodded and gave an awkward laugh "All thanks to him!" She said pointing to her brother.

Dani felt her phone buzz in her pocket and she took it out.

Hey babe! Having fun with your bro in Cleveland? -Cody

Sure am, but I miss you. I'm glad to have the day off of work. -Dani

She turned back to her cousins with a happy little grin.

"So who are you talking to?" Max asked crossing her arms over her chest.

Dani felt a little smile cross her face "My boyfriend." She replied as her smile grew.

Max and Tara looked at each other before Tara snatched Dani's phone from her hand.

"I want details!" Tara said with a giggle as she went through Dani's texts. "Aww you guys have cute conversations!" Tara commented as she looked at the phone

"You guys sound perfect..." Alex said trailing off. "You've got another message from him!" She said taking the phone from Tara and handing it back to Dani with a mischievous smile.

Dani unlocked her phone and looked at the message. Her heart sunk and she sighed; the message was from Mike, not Cody.

We're both in Cleveland, so why don't we hang out? -Mike

Dani blinked absently and looked up to her cousins. "He's not exactly-"

Dani was cutoff as Tara snatched her phone again and quickly typed out a reply. She tapped send and smiled brightly.

"Give me that!" Dani growled tackling Tara to the ground. She pryed the phone from the smaller girl's hands and hesitantly read what she'd sent.

I'd love to hang out babe! How about at the bar on 34th street at 7? My cousins will be there as well. -Dani

Dani read over the word 'babe' at least a hundred times before setting the phone down at her side. "He's not my boyfriend bitch..." She muttered. Her heart was pounding, although the only suggestive part of the message was a single word; babe.

The three girls looked shocked "You're fucking with us, right?" Max asked in a disbelieving tone.

"Language Max! You're only 17..." Dani said with the shake of her head. "No, Mike's just, a pretty good friend of mine, that's all!"

"Doesn't matter, we need to get ready to go it's 5:30." Alex said taking her own phone out.

Dani stood up and glanced at Dolph, who'd luckily been paying them no attention. "Who said I was actually gonna go?"

"Well, you gonna let this guy down, even if he is just a friend?" Max asked in a sly tone.

Dani's words caught in her throat and she just shook her head. She stood and walked towards her room to go get ready. She brushed out her dark brown hair and tied it up in a high ponytail. She put a bit of eyeliner on to brighten her green eyes, then added a thin layer of lipgloss to her lips.

Dani slipped on some jean shorts and straightened out her The Offspring band tee. She tied up her black, lowtop converse and sat down on her bed. Now i'm at least somewhat presentable. She thought blankly.

The four girls arrived at the bar and they scanned the dark area for Mike.

"Where is he?" Max asked looking around as if she were a hawk looking for its next prey.

Dani rolled her eyes as she pushed her way through a mass of people. Her cousins kept up as best they could, but soon got lost in the small crowd. Dani locked eyes with Mike and smiled "Hey there Mikey, sorry I didn't get all dressed up for you." She said with a smug grin creeping across her face.

Mike turned around and smiled as he looked her up and down. "You look fine!" he said laughing. "Here, let me buy you a drink." He said beckoning the bartender over with a hand gesture. "Another beer please." He said giving a quick glance to Dani.

Dani's cousins finally found there way toward Mike and Dani and piled in toward the bar on. They did the same thing that Mike had done to Dani and looked at Mike up and down inquisitively. "So this is the guy Dan?" Tara asked crossing her arms over the chest.

Dani bit her bottom lip and fought back a blush. "Yupp, he's my best friend and the most must-see WWE superstar, the Miz!" Dani said in an announcers voice. Dani and Mike looked to each other and giggled quietly, but her cousins stayed quiet. Mike rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly and gave a short nod.

"My name's Mike." He said giving his usual charming smile. That was the smile made every girl melt when he flashed it.
