Thank you Zanderlover for being the first person to give my story a review. Now here's chapter 3 for you all to enjoy.
Two days later and we were in Houston, Texas at the Toyota Center, and I was getting ready for the taping of the Halloween Special Edition of SmackDown. Right now Main Event was going on and I was currently in the dressing room with Nattie, Rosa, and Naomi as we were getting dressed for the Divas Halloween Costume Battle Royal that was scheduled for tonight. Mark Carrano had gathered all of us Divas last night at Raw to tell us about this match, but the good news about it was that the winner of the Battle Royal would be the number one contender to go against April for the Divas title. Also there's no set Diva to win, meaning that anyone of us has the chance to win.
Anyways I had just finished getting dressed into my costume that Nattie and Rosa helped me pick out, and fixed my makeup. I was dressed up as a Native American Indian. I glanced myself in the mirror and was pleased with how I looked. My costume wasn't revealing, but it hugged my body comfortably, unlike the other Indian costume that Rosa had picked out for me before this one. It was too revealing for my taste and I didn't want to be a WWE Diva known only for her looks…Not saying that's what Rosa is doing. I know she was trying to help and be the good friend I need, and I was grateful for that, even if I had a hard time grasping the concept of friendship.
I walked out from the private section of the locker room I shared with Nattie and Rosa, hoping that the girls were still here so I could show them how the costume looks on me and so that I didn't have to go out looking for them and having the male wrestlers stare at me. Thankfully Nattie, Rosa, and Trinity were still here, getting their makeup done.
Nattie looked at the mirror and saw my reflection and instantly smiled. "You look really cute in that costume, Adrienne." She said in sign language.
I smiled softly and thanked her. I always appreciate it when Nattie talks to me using sign language and I think she knew that too. I don't like using my voice to communicate only because I don't know what my voice sounds like. The girls would always tell me that I have a pretty voice and sometimes I would believe them.
Soon Rosa and Trinity looked up at me after the makeup artists had finished making them look beautiful as always, and squealed when they saw how I looked in my costume. Well Rosa squealed, more so than Trinity, as she got up from her seat and circled around me to get a closer look.
"You look hot girl! You're going to have all the guys here have their eyes on you." Rosa complimented as I blushed, but thanked her as well.
I looked at their costumes and smiled softly how great they looked. Nattie was dressed as the Queen of Hearts which is cute because she's part of the Hart family. Trinity is a Paratrooper and Rosa was a Zombie nurse. Of course they looked gorgeous in anything they wear, and sometimes I feel plain when I'm around them, but I'm okay with the way I look.
Since we were all dressed and the Divas Halloween Costume Battle Royal was the first match of the SmackDown taping, we met up with the other divas that were participating at the gorilla. I stood back and looked at the other divas' costumes. I smiled as I thought some of the costumes were silly, like Saraya (Paige) who was a parody version of Danielle, well her character, Summer Rae, and Layla as a clown. Others were pretty much sexy versions of different characters, which I didn't have a problem with at all. The only diva that didn't dress up tonight was April, but then again she was only doing commentary tonight.
A stage producer was signaling us divas to go out to the ring as our music played. I was going to be second to last of the divas to walk out of the gorilla. It was my turn to walk out as the stage producer guided me. Although I didn't know what my song sounded like, I could hear the vibration from the bass go through the speakers so it sort of helped me come up with entrance walk to match the beat, thanks to my hearing aids. The crowd cheered as I walked out, which made me smile. I pretended to do a Native American Indian call, which the fans seemed to love, before continuing my way to the ring. Once I climbed up the apron of the wrestling ring, Nikki made her way down from the gorilla.
After Nikki was in the ring, the bell was rung and we began our battle royal. It was every woman for themselves and us girls…well the one I normally talked to, told each other that there no hard feelings if we eliminated one another out. My goal for this was to eliminate as many divas as I can. Even if I don't win, I was to prove to myself and to anyone who watches me that I am a great wrestler and that I deserve to be here despite my hearing impairment.
I started attacking anyone randomly just to get them down. I smiled as I had eliminated my first diva, which was Danielle. I had noticed that Rosa was the first diva to be eliminated which sucks, but I shook my head and went to my next opponent that was nearby, which was Victoria (Alicia Fox), and tried throwing her out, but she was being stubborn. I soon gave up with her for a moment as she kept scratching my face, which I didn't like at all, so I went after Arianne (Cameron) and Tenille (Emma), knocking them both out of the ring with a drop kick.
One by one, I was eliminating Divas left and right and now it's at the point where it's just four Divas which includes Nikki, Saraya, Victoria, and myself. Nikki was attacking Saraya, having them both outside of the ring, but still on the apron, but Nikki is hanging onto the ropes. Victoria was charging towards Saraya as she was hanging between the ropes. I was about to charge after her, but then stopped at myself as I saw that Victoria had knocked herself and Saraya out of the ring. Now that those two were out, it was just Nikki and I. But the thing was, Nikki thought she won because she started celebrating early. That was until I caught her in my finisher, Silent Killer, knocking her out cold. I smiled and picked her up to put her over my shoulders, before looking at April, who was watching me intently. I smirked and threw Nikki over the ropes, having her land on the ground. The bell rang signaling that I had won the Divas Halloween Costume Battle Royal and I was now the number one contender for the Divas Championship title. April left the commentary table and climbed into the ring, before giving me a stare down. I stared right back at her for a minute or two and then gave her nod before exiting the ring to head towards the back as my theme song was playing in the background.
Raw had ended a few hours ago and everybody had already arrived to the hotel in the next city. Nattie and Rosa were asleep in the hotel room that we were sharing, but I couldn't sleep. In fact, I haven't been able to sleep well for the past two weeks. I would have these insomniac nights quite often, but I didn't let anyone know about it because I didn't want anyone to be concerned or try to make me take a few days off to go home.
I was in the lobby area of the hotel, sitting down at a table that was meant to sit two people, with a small cup of hot cocoa that I had just made. I had been here in the lobby for an hour, just thinking about a lot of things from my match earlier and how I am getting my push. In all honesty, I'm excited about getting this chance to possibly winning the Divas championship, but I'm also a bit nervous. I was surprised that a few people besides the girls, congratulated me on my win. Even April, of all people, congratulated me and told me that she was looking forward to our match at Survivor Series for the Divas Championship. Of course she didn't leave without kissing the Divas belt right in front of me as to say that I'm not going to win it. However, it didn't bother me since I'm always up for a challenge and she is one of my biggest competition.
Anyway, my attention to my cup of hot cocoa had ended when I saw a hand waved back and forth in front of my face. I looked up and saw that Jon had taken the empty seat in front of me. He looked like he either just got out of the shower, or just finished a serious workout, but his usual smirk was plastered on his lips.
"Seems like our encounters are becoming more frequent now. But I'm not complaining." Jon immediately said as he gained my attention.
"I guess so. But to me it seems like you're the one to find me first." I told him in a playful sassy tone of voice, but he still had that stupid smirk on his face.
"Damn you caught me. Guilty as charged." He said as he raised his hands in the air in surrender.
I laughed softly and rolled my eyes. "Cute." I mumbled and it was his turn to roll his eyes at me.
"I'm not cute. How dare you say I'm cute?" He said as if he was offended.
I snorted lightly and nodded. "Yeah cute doesn't fit you. Adorable is more like it." I teased him once more and he groaned again making me laugh.
"There's nothing cute or adorable about me. I'm the dirtiest, the nastiest, and the meanest man you'll ever meet." He said trying to intimidate me as he leaned close to me.
I leaned forward as well, making our eyes level with each other. "You don't scare me, Jonathan Good. I can be just as dirty and nasty." I smirked, but gave him a look that said I wasn't fucking around.
Jon stared at me for a little longer, before leaning back in his chair with a smug looking smile. I did the same and took a sip of my hot chocolate, as I could tell that I got him.
"You're different from the other girls I've met. None of them are as sassy like you are. I don't make friends, especially with females…I usually fuck them. But with you, I see something good coming out of this." He said and k
I crossed my arms over my chest and rolled my eyes once again. "So are you saying that we are friends now?"
"More or less. As you can tell, I'm pretty rough around the edges. I ain't some prince charming. I'm an asshole as everyone knows, and I always have been with my rough upbringing." He said with a shrug.
"Well I'm not some princess either. Like you, I didn't come from a glamorous life either. Being deaf wasn't my only problem." I countered with my arms still folded over across my chest.
"Such a sass, but I like it. I think you and I are going to get along pretty well." Jon smirked once again.
"I thought we already were getting along." I stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
He chuckled and a genuine smile formed on his lips, as one also formed on mine. "Touché, touché."
