Don't tell me chapter 2.
Complicated.
A/N-Hello. Thanks to everyone who read and reviewed the last chapter
I've been ill recently and haven't been able to update.
Please enjoy this chapter and review.
Thanks
The three friends sat in the hotel bar chatting about completely random things. Eve was happy, extremely happy. She had no idea why she had been so worried, so far apart from a little run in with the Miz and company, her time on raw had been quite pleasant. She couldn't help but smile a little, which didn't go unnoticed.
"Why are you so smiley?" Melina asked as she drained her glass and ushered the bartender to get her a new drink.
"Am I not allowed to be happy now?" Eve giggled as she scanned the room for faces she might recognise.
Melina rolled her eyes and offered a chuckle.
"Glad you're enjoying yourself. He seemed to be quite interested in you earlier," She nodded over in the direction of the entrance, where John Cena had just arrived. Eve smiled even more and Kelly's ears pricked up.
"Do you think?" Eve asked. She really liked John, he seemed nice and kind and someone she could spend a lot of time with happily.
Melina nodded her head in reply and waved at Ted Dibiase who had also just entered. Kelly's eyes narrowed and Eve felt a bit uncomfortable as she saw the daggers Kelly was throwing at her. Eve shrugged.
"No I don't think so Mel. He's just being polite, it's my first day."
"Whatever, he totally likes you. Oh and speak of the devil, look who's making his way over here right now," Melina fixed her eyes on John Cena as he made his way through a crowd of people to where the girls were sitting at the bar.
Kelly checked herself in her pocket mirror quickly just before he got to them.
"Hi ladies," he said, mainly looking at Eve and the spare bar stool next to her. "This seat taken?"
Eve smiled and shook her head, causing Melina to laugh a little.
"That's actually my seat John, but you can have it," Melina turned to Eve and Kelly, who had an expression of envy on her face. "I'm going to speak to Ted, see you later."
She politely nodded at John who moved aside a little to let her through.
"Bye," the three of them chorused.
John sat down in the seat and called for the bartender.
"Water for me and whatever the girls are having," he ordered. The bartender nodded and looked to the girls as they ordered their drinks, then set off to retrieve them.
"Thanks, but you didn't have to..." Eve began but was interrupted by Kelly.
"Aw you are such a gentleman. You're so sweet, isn't he sweet, Eve? Yes he's so sweet." She was in a frenzy and was speaking really quickly. Eve couldn't help but smirk, it was so obvious she liked him. She didn't even try to hide the fact.
"Thanks?" Cena said. This wasn't the first time he had been around a hyper Kelly Kelly. In fact he had been putting up with her for months, in fact ever since they had both been on raw.
Kelly just smiled maniacally back and turned to her drink that had just been placed down by the bartender.
"Why didn't you get alcohol? Don't you drink?" Eve asked, thanking the tender for the drink.
"No I do, it's just I don't feel like drinking tonight. In fact I don't really like partying or drinking that much, it's so loud in here. Anyway, how was your first night on raw?" he smiled, taking a sip of his water.
"It was great actually, really enjoyed it." Eve said enthusastically with a smile on her face. Her smile soon faded when she noticed who had walked through the door. Miz and Swagger followed by Carlito, Chavo and Masters.
John picked up on the mood changed and looked in the direction Eve was looking. He noticed the group of boys and rolled his eyes.
"Don't let them bring you down," he paused as the group started walking over. "Great they're heading this way."
Kelly waved in the direction of the group. Everybody knew that she and Jack Swagger had something going on. Everyone apart from Eve.
"Well, look who it is," Miz started staring right at Eve. Eve remembered earlier on and knew that the Miz hated her.
"Leave it Miz," Chris said, pulling Miz's arm a little. Miz turned and looked at him.
"Really? Really?" he said, not really making sense.
"Come on, let's just leave them." Chavo said seeing Jillian in the corner of his eye. His attention was momentarily stolen by Jillian and then restored as he looked back to the group of people who were all looking at him open-mouthed.
"Why are you looking at Jillian?" Carlito said almost disgusted.
"What? She's hot," Chavo replied. Swagger laughed.
"In what world?"
Chavo pushed him and sighed.
"Whatever, I'm out." He turned and waved at Jillian, who waved back and then glared as she noticed Eve sitting at the bar. Chavo went over to Jillian and Eve noticed how she they bitched about her and made it so obvious. She rolled her eyes and returned to the group conversation.
The boy's ordered drinks, all ignoring Eve and Cena apart from Miz. Miz stared at Eve in an intimidating way, she was almost scared for a moment. John picked up on the tension between the United States champion and the newest diva and he spoke up.
"I think you guys better go."
Miz turned his attention to John.
"Really? Really John, really? Well I was just about to leave anyway." He looked at his 'followers' and indicated they were leaving, then turned and led them away to a table. All but Swagger followed, he was more involved in a conversation with Kelly. Eve turned back to Cena.
She felt uncomfortable and unwelcome. She didn't really belong there. Everyone had their little cliques and groups, everyone knew each other and she only knew three people. She had already made enemies and that was surely a bad thing, after all this was only her first night.
John frowned as he noticed the drop in mood of his new found friend.
"Are you ok? Do you want to go somewhere quieter?" he asked. He gave her the same warm, friendly smile he had done earlier.
Eve hesitated. She wasn't sure if she should leave Kelly and Melina.
"Um..." she started and looked around the room, scanning the crowd for Melina. She noticed her sitting in a corner in between Ted Dibiase and Cody Rhodes, chatting away contently. Eve thought it best not to disturb her. "Yeah ok."
She looked over her shoulder at Kelly and to her surprise was met with an empty stool. She looked around the room once again, this time looking for Kelly and noticed her in a dark patch with Jack Swagger, making out.
"Oh my god," Eve said shocked as she pointed over in the direction of her blonde friend and the all American American. "Look over there!"
"Subtle," he replied sarcastically. "She does make it pretty obvious doesn't she? Now are we going to leave now?"
Eve still wasn't sure if she should leave with him, she knew it was all innocent but she didn't want others to get the wrong idea by seeing the pair leave together. She didn't need people talking about her and getting the wrong end of the stick already.
"Where would go though?" she asked stalling for time.
He shrugged. "We could go up to my room?"
The expression on Eve's face said it all. What did he really want? Always the observative one, Cena tried to reassure her.
"Oh no, I didn't mean it like that. I meant just to talk..." he looked down, feeling like an idiot.
Eve laughed.
"It's ok, I knew what you meant. I know you're not like that," although really she hadn't known what he had meant and she didn't know if he was like that or not.
"How's about we go for a walk instead? I hear the courtyards really nice here, it has different flowers and vines and stuff," he offered. Eve nodded.
"A walk sounds nice, let me just say goodbye to Melina." He nodded in response and just as Eve got up a familiar voice spoke over the speakers.
"Ok everybody, it's time for karaoke. And as I am the best singer here, I'll go first." Jillian said arrogantly, there were a few boos but Chavo clapped and cheered loudly. A total eclipse of the heart instrumental started playing and Jillian began to sing.
Eve turned back to John.
"On second thoughts," she said. "I think I'll just meet her back at the room later." And she grabbed her stuff and ran out of the room, followed by John Cena and a few other raw superstars, desperate to get away from the torture in there.
Cena laughed.
"Eve Torres," he began. "I think this is a start of a great friendship."
He smiled and the two linked arms and walked off in the direction of the courtyard.
"Me too, Cena. Me too."
A/N- This chapter sucked and it was really short. Sorry about that. Next chapter will be much better, promise.
