A/N: I don't own anything WWE related, just my characters that I created. Thank you so much for your reviews and follows. I've read the reviews and different people ship Cat with either Colby or Jon. Hmm. Enjoy!
"Why would you do that, Joe? Don't be stupid." I said in a hurry.
"I don't want to be with her anymore. I want.." he said and I cut him off. I've made decisions in a rush and we'll, they didn't end well.
"No, Joe. Maybe it's just a spur of the moment thing. See what happens tonight. Don't do anything stupid..Bye." I ended the call and took in everything I just heard. I know he has problems with his relationship but, he shouldn't break up with her.
I finally fell asleep, fearing what Joe would tell me tomorrow. I would feel bad if he ended their relationship because he deserves to be loved, and it's rare to find someone who you can connect with on every level. I hope that I find that special person one day; it's always been a dream of mine to get married and have children. I know 21 is very young to be thinking of that stuff, but I feel like I'm ready.
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing; I reached for it and accepted the call. I rubbed my eyes and attempted to wake myself up. No such luck.
"Catalina." The deep voice woke me up immediately and I sat up, very much alert.
"What?" I'm really not a morning person, Am I even alive.
"I didn't break up with her, we actually talked through our issues. Thank you for the advice, Catalina." I felt crushed, but whatever.
"Good for you." As I hung up the phone, I decided that I didn't want to speak to him while I'm here, he's one of the reasons I came back to Florida, to clear my head. My mood swings though.
I freshened up and headed to the training centre. As I was driving around, I realised how much I would miss Pensacola when I start travelling around the world with WWE. This place was truly beautiful.
"Hey, Cat." Paige waved at me as she put Victoria in a submission. I waved at her and high fived Sami, while Bayley suffocated me in a hug.
"It's nice to see you guys!" I said when Bayley let me go. She was so cute, and extremely happy, I wish I was like that.
"We can say the same; it's always nice to have another friend in the group." Sami said smiling at me. They instantly put me in a better mood.
"1, 2..." I kicked out of Victoria's pin and caught my breath. I ran to the ropes and bounced off, sending me flying onto Victoria. I did a cartwheel, landing in the splits and pinning Victoria at the same time.
"1, 2 , 3" I helped Victoria up and she gave me a pat on the back.
"You have improved for sure, kid." I beamed at her even though she called me 'kid', 21 isn't that young.
*^ 2 months later *^
I impatiently brushed through my newly cut hair, as I sat in front of the vanity mirror in the hotel. I've never had short hair, but i wanted to change my look. I set the curling iron down and stared at my appearance. I lost some weight as I was training everyday, and overall I looked healthy and happy. I applied some more eyeliner and lipgloss and got up to find something to wear. I settled on a pair of leather leggings and a spiked bralet, with a leather jacket. I looked at my shoes and sighed, I wanted to look badass. I finally settled on a pair of black red bottom high heels that I've never worn. I kept fussing with my hair, I wasn't used to shoulder length hair but it's different.
No one knew I was returning today, I talked to Isabella a few times and the last time I talked to Joe was when he told me he worked out things with his girlfriend. Before, i was the innocent nerd Catalina, now I want to be badass Catalina, obviously I would have my nerd moments when I am by myself. I also wanted to make an effort with the other divas, as I would be sharing a changing room with them and I would be travelling with them too.
After a brief meeting with Stephanie McMahon about a new storyline with Alicia Fox, I walked into catering with Alicia's arm hugging my shoulder. I guess a new friend is better than no friends, right?
"Catalina, is that you?" Layla shrieked and wrapped her arms around me. She beamed at me and reached out to touch my hair, gasping. I smirked and did a little twirl.
"Yes mami!" Rosa Mendes did the salsa towards me and I joined her, shaking my hips to the imaginary beat.
I sat at a table with Alicia, Layla, and Rosa and I told them about my training and my excitement about the new storyline with Alicia that would heighten my popularity, for sure.
After a few minutes, more divas started to join us and complimented my new look. I felt flattered and also relieved, I was paranoid that they would think I was trying to look like one of them. Isabella kept staring at me in disbelief and it made me uncomfortable, I hated people staring which is why I always kept my look basic.
As the divas were discussing marriage, I completely zoned out on their conversation. Then I heard three familiar voices that still made my heart leap. I looked around quickly and I saw all three of them, then a female holding hands with Joe. She looked different from the last time I saw her, her hair was in a side ponytail and her skin was glowing. We all know what that means. After my brief examination I turned around to face the divas and they were raising their eyebrows at something behind me. I was scared to look behind me.
"Who's the new diva?" I heard Jon's curious tone and I could picture the disappointment on his face when he realises that it's me. My pulse increased as I felt his dominating presence behind me, what am I gonna say to him?
He looked at me and his eyes widened. "Princess." He reached forward to touch my hair but I avoided his touch.
"We have to go and get ready." Alicia saved my ass and I grabbed onto her arm as we ran out of the room. I felt the intense stares from Joe and Colby and I knew that they would be angry at me for not contacting them.
We burst out laughing as soon as we got to the locker room, I fell to the floor with tears clouding my vision and Alicia looked at me with an amused expression before bursting out laughing again.
"Okay, we need to get you some attire." Alicia skipped out of the locker room and returned a few minutes later with a mischievous grin on her face. I think we will get along pretty well.
"I found this, TA DAH!" She held up a two piece which looked really revealing. I smirked at her and she threw the attire at me.
I stared at myself in the mirror and I can proudly admit that I look like a hoe, but whatever. The bra top was very revealing and it was mostly cleavage showing. The short shorts were a different story, my booty was on another level. They would probably have to censor me on TV, and I wouldn't blame them.
After the makeup artist and hair stylists worked their magic, my look pretty much matched my outfit. My eyes were intense and smokey, and my lips were a dark plum colour. My hair was straightened and my side fringe was curled to the side.
"You ready?" Alicia looked at me for a response as we waited for her theme music to hit. I took a deep breath and nodded, adrenaline was pumping through my veins. We walked through the curtains, down the ramp and I couldn't help but smile. I climbed up the steel steps and walked into the ring. I did a little pose to pass time and I blew a kiss at some random guy who was cheering for us.
The bell rang and I held onto the ropes as Alicia started the match with Summer Rae. I observed Alicia's techniques and she was really good with every move. Every move was precise, and I hope that I could be like that in the near future.
I heard echoed voices around the arena and the crowd turned around to look for, I can only assume, The Shield. I watched as the three guys made their way to the ring, they all stared at me as they walked over to the commentary table. What they hell were they doing? I looked away from them and refocused on the match, Alicia looked hurt and she was reaching to tag me in. I stood on the ropes and reached as far as I could, as soon as her hand touched mine, I jumped into the ring. I clotheslined Summer Rae twice before punching her in her stomach several times. She was on her hands and knees and I ran to the ropes, bounced off and ran to her catching her in a scissor kick. I grabbed her leg and pinned her, feeling the stares of the guys that were ringside.
"1, 2, 3". The bell rang and Alicia's music blasted through the speakers. I got up and felt Alicia hug me as the referee held up our hands. The crowd was cheering and I felt overcome with so many emotions, I blinked back tears as I exited the ring with Alicia. I felt creeped out as the guys followed us backstage without saying a word.
I took a swig of water and Alicia stayed by my side as the guys approached us. They stared at Alicia until she rolled her eyes and said "I'll be in catering if you need me, Cat." She gave me a reassuring shoulder hug before leaving. I crossed my arms over my chest, aware that I had a full display of cleavage showing. Looking at all three of them out me in a bad mood, maybe coming back this soon was a bad idea.
"Joe!" Maria ran up to Joe and wrapped her arms around him like a little kid. I don't have time for this bullshit, I rolled my eyes and walked away from them.
"Wait, princess." I froze when Jon grabbed my hand to make me face him. He made his staring obvious as his eyes skimmed across my face, to my hair, to my body.
"I missed you." He said in a serious tone, his intense blue eyes stared into mine and I wanted to melt.
"Shouldn't we be getting back to the hotel, baby?" Eva Marie walked up next to Jon and hugged his shoulder. I felt physically sick and Jon gave me a sorrowful look. Eva looked at me and beamed at me, she reached over and hugged me. Slick bitch.
"You look amazing, Catalina. We missed you!" She said, and her perfect smile never left her face.
"Thanks. I'm gonna go now..bye." I said without giving Jon another look, and I walked away.
The drive to the hotel was silent as I reflected on everything. I was happy about our win tonight, but feelings that I have been trying to avoid have become unbearable and hard to ignore. So Eva and Jon huh. If Colby announced that he had a girlfriend too, I wouldn't be surprised. Maybe if I was looking for a serious relationship, it would be with someone outside of the WWE.
"Hey, what's on your mind?" Alicia said as she stopped at a red light. I sighed and ran my hand through my hair.
"Nothing important, I'm fine." I said in the nicest way possible, I didn't want to be rude to her. She gave me a sad smile before speeding past three other cars. I'm gonna have to get used to her speeding tactics.
After an extremely exhausting night, me and Alicia were chilling in my room talking about hair and guys.
"You would look good with blonde hair, Cat." Alicia said as I curled a section of her hair.
"I'll take that into consideration." I said,thinking. Maybe when I decide to change my look again, I will dye my hair too.
"You know who kept staring at you tonight?" Alicia said and smirked at me in the mirror. I combed through her hair and acted like I wasn't curious.
"Who?" I said in a casual tone, even though I need to know this important information.
"Well, aside from all of the superstars.. Joe." She winked at me and my heartbeat increased. I focused on curling her hair even though I was thinking of Joe.
"He likes you, Cat. It's so obvious, even his clingy ass girlfriend knows it." I put the curling iron down and stared at her in shock, she burst out laughing and admired her hair.
"What? She knows? How?" Oh my god, I didn't even think Joe liked me in that way, what. If his girlfriend found out about his 'feelings' for me, I would be dead. I've seen her death stare and it's nearly worse than mine.
"Well, I think everyone in that room could feel the sexual tension between you two. If there's not feelings in the mix, I don't know what it is." I blushed, it was difficult to have a clear mind when I was around him. He was too damn fine.
"Um, I think you're reading into things. There's nothing going on between me and Joe, he's just a friend." I lied through teeth even though Alicia already knew the truth.
"And you both want it to be something more. Don't worry, I won't tell. You guys would make a hot ass couple, oh and the babies would be fine as hell too! You know, I used to be a wedding planner." I listened to her ramble on about a future wedding and children, oh my god.
"Alicia, calm down." She looked at me with a shocked expression and I burst out laughing at her.
"I'm planning the wedding!" She said in a sing song voice as she hugged me, and went back to her room.
I unplugged the curling iron and put it to the side. I really wanted to see Joe right now. After a shower, I changed into a vest top and booty shorts, with ugg boots. I was tempted to wear my Star Wars socks, but I had to maintain my badass image. I checked my reflection before I left, my hair was still straight but my face was bare of makeup. Oh well.
I hoped that they were in the lobby, I literally ran down the stairs and took a deep breath when I got there. I saw Jon and Eva Marie at the bar, and Colby was on the phone near the pool table. I saw Joe sitting by himself, and I stared at him until he noticed me. I gestured for him to come over to me, and my heartbeat rapidly increased when he did. He took my hand and pulled me into a hug, I felt his heart thudding against his chest too or maybe it was just mine.
"I missed you so much." He said in a low voice as he pulled away. His intense grey eyes stared into mine and I could feel the heat rising between my legs. Alicia was right.
"I need to do something." He said suddenly and I looked at him with a confused expression. He pulled me close to him again and I looked up at him. His eyes went from my eyes to my lips and he leaned down to kiss me. I wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen the kiss and he wrapped his arms around my waist. I literally felt electricity sparks as soon as our lips touched. When we pulled apart I gasped for air, and he gave me a sexy smile before giving me another kiss. My lips tingled as his soft lips touched mine and I wanted this moment to last forever.
"They're probably wondering where we got too." Joe said, and I nodded as he walked in first. I took a deep breath, hopefully no one notices my flushed face.
"Hey, Cat. Guess what?" Ugh, it's her again. Eva gestured for me to join her and Jon at the bar. I mentally rolled my eyes and sat next to Eva. I looked down and saw that they were holding hands, I looked up and my eyes locked with Jon's.
"What?" I faked my excitement as she beamed at Jon, and I looked at her expecting her to tell me that she was pregnant or something.
"We have made it official, I'm his girlfriend!" She hugged me, and I looked at Jon over my shoulder. What could she have possibly done to make him commit to her. The sex must be amazing, then.
"Congratulations." I said, then ordered something strong. I needed it, this night has been very eventful.
"Catalina, can we talk?" I heard Colby's voice from behind me, and I excused myself from Eva and Jon. I followed Colby to a booth and we sat opposite each other.
"I miss you. It takes a lot for me to say that. Anyway, I want us to be friends. I know I fucked up when I kissed you, it was only because I had inappropriate feelings for you. Then, I realised that you and Joe are meant to be together, not me and you." I stared at him in shock, he knows more than he lets on.
"How?" I was speechless as he reached across the table and took my hand into his. His brown eyes softened as he rubbed his thumb across the back of my hand.
"I knew before you did."
