[A/N: Before I start, in this story I will be making up original characters to fit the story]
Sasha's POV
After the intense training, we took another break and I knew I couldn't go any longer. I sat on the apron while Kenny was helping me wrap a bag of ice to my knee. I closed my eye shut because it was really cold but it was easing the pain.
"How are you feeling?" Kenny looks up at me while finishing the ends of the wrap.
"I am feeling okay. I am almost ready to wrestle."
"Don't worry you will get to wrestle. No doubt about that champ." My body tensed up when Kenny called me champ. I wasn't the one holding the belt anymore. Charlotte is and soon maybe Bayley.
"Hey, I know you don't have the title around your waist right now, but sometimes you don't need it to be a champion because I already know you are one." What surprised me the most was when softly placed both of his hands on each side of cheeks and ours eyes aligned. My face instantly blushed. Why was I blushing?! Just looking into his eyes makes me melt. Then unexpectedly, his cell phone rings in his bag. Kenny turns and walks to his bag to answer the call. A part of me wanted to throw his bag down a cliff because it worried a good moment. It could have meant something. Kenny ends the phone conversation and walks over to me.
"Hey, a friend of mine just invited me to lunch, care to join?" The sound of lunch really hit the spot.
"Yes, please. I am starving!" I hopped off the apron and limped towards my bag. "But first let me change into something comfortable." I grab my change of clothes and limp towards the private restroom. I take a shower and wash my hair to remove the smell of sweat. After that, I quickly dried my hair and body and put on my clothes. I place my makeup bag on top of the counter and start on my natural makeup look.
"Girls do take a long time." Kenny says through the door" I instantly rolled my eyes and smiled a little.
"If only boys had patience," I said in a singing tone. After I finally did my wings with my eyeliner and removed the ice pack from my knee. I opened the door and see Kenny sitting next to the door. "Aw, you look like a lost puppy waiting for me. How adorable." Kenny gets up from sitting on the floor and offers to carry my belongings.
"I felt like I was going to die and my body was going to decay before you would come out." I playfully pushed him.
"Hey, I have to look good." I flip my hair left and right and posed with a peace sign.
"With and without makeup, you still look beautiful. Don't worry too much." That instantly made my face blush and my body tingle. Was he serious?
We placed our stuff in the back of the car and made our way to the location for lunch with his friend. We parked the car and made our way to a big restaurant. The waitress directs us to a booth and we order our drinks.
"Kenny, let me use your phone and take pictures of the decorations. This place is amazing!" Kenny hands me his phone and I started taking pictures of the bright neon colored decorations. There were some moveable decoration pieces like the small dragon on the table moving its tail left and right. I am instantly fangirling in my seat while Kenny looks at me as if I grew two heads on each shoulder.
"You are really something Banks." I lean my head on his shoulder and took a selfie with him.
"It's a keeper!" I pass his phone back to him as the waitress comes to our table with the drinks. As I took my drink and add a straw in it, a Japanese woman with long black hair with a Japanese bang stops at our table.
"Kenny!" She immediately hugs him and as she's hugging him she tilts her and looks at me. "I didn't know you were inviting someone with you." I was shocked that his friend looked like a supermodel. She was wearing designer sunglasses on her head, black silk tank top, high waisted light blue jeans, with long laced knee high heel boots. I looked like garbage compared to her with just a crop top, high waisted shorts, and tennis shoes.
"Well, this is Sasha Banks, and Sasha this is Hana Chinen." Kenny introduces me to Hana as she sits in front of Kenny and extends her hand out in front of me. I kindly shake her hand and let go.
"So, how long have you known each other?"
"Just a couple of days actually and it was unexpected, but I am glad we met," I said as Kenny nods to my response while drinking his coffee.
"That's cute, so are you guys going out?" Hana looks at me for a response. I really got nervous at her question.
"Oh, no! We're just friends. I don't even know if Kenny is taken or anything." I mentally wanted to kick myself for making a fool of myself in front of a person I just met.
"No, I am not taken. I am still looking." Kenny takes another sip of his coffee then looks at me and gives me a wink. At that very moment, my legs felt numb and I was on cloud 9. I officially confirm that I am having feelings for Kenny. A person that I just met not too long ago. It's just something about him that he can make the world stop for a moment. Just the two of us.
"Well, that's good." Hana pushes her hair behind to show her cleavage. I knew instantly she was trying to flirt with Kenny with her body. "Kenny, I came in late, would you mind going up to a bartender and asking for a Blue Hawaiian for me." She gently places her hand on his shoulder then glides it up and down.
"Sure, I can do that." Kenny gets up and walks up to the bar.
"Well, what do you do for a living Hana?" I asked her. She turned her head and her face expression changed to something so dark.
"Listen, Sasha, you are a sweet. You really are, but you will only be just a friend to him. You're not his type. He wants someone like me" She twirls her hair and then curves her breasts and waist to show that she was his type of girl. "You can still live in a fantasy world and I will also pretend to like you. Just do not get in my way." Hana picks up her menu to see what she would want for lunch. I do the same to avoid any conflict with Hana until Kenny arrives. Kenny comes back with Hana's Blue Hawaiian.
"Here is your drink. I also asked if the waitress would come by soon so we order our food and she will be here in about 5 minutes.
"Oh Kenny, you're such a gentleman!" Hana places elbow on the table as she lies her head on her hand dolling her eyes at him. I just roll my eyes and return looking at my menu.
The rest of the afternoon at the restaurant was just mostly Hana and Kenny having their conversation. Hana made her statement and I just backed up as she wanted. Kenny would look over at me here and there as if wanted he was concerned why I was quiet. Hana hugged Kenny goodbye and just waved at me. Kenny and I walked to his car and drove back to his home.
"Sasha, is everything okay? You were oddly quiet. That's not you." Kenny looked over at me while I rested my head on the window.
"How do you know that's not me?" I looked up at the sky as the colors mixed with yellow orange and purple. It was beautiful.
"There is not one day you are not singing around the house especially in the shower. When you are in the shower, you sing very loud that people in Antarctica can hear you." I laughed and turned to look at him.
"Okay, that sounds more like an insult than a compliment."
"I did not say it was bad. It is actually pretty good. Usually, when I am home, it is quiet and empty. Then you arrive and it feels different and lively which I like." Kenny pulls up to the driveway and parks the car. "Now tell me, what's wrong?" He places his hand on my thigh and I tense up.
"Um, you know, the workout was intense and I am just tired." I smiled at Kenny to make my lie believable and from preventing him from asking any more questions.
"Okay. Well, in two days we have to get ready for your best moment in wrestling." Kenny exits the car while coming around to help me out.
"Yeah, pretty nervous about that." Kenny opens the front door and lets me in first then locks the door behind him.
"Do not be nervous, it will be your moment to shine." Kenny places his keys and phone on the coffee table and enters his room. I sit on the couch to mentally rest from today until I heard a notification sound. I look over and see Kenny's phone light up. His wallpaper was the selfie I took of us at the restaurant. My heart fluttered at his phone. Does Kenny like me?
