A/N: I don't own anything WWE related, thank you for the reviews, I'm glad you guys understand the story. Enjoy!
I awkwardly got up, and locked myself in the bathroom. I stripped my clothes off and hopped into the shower once again. I noticed more bruises and cuts on my body, but I was more concerned about the bleeding. So, I did a thorough inspection, and I saw that I had a long cut on my thigh and it was bleeding in the direction of my downstairs. Thank god. I looked in the mirror and cringed, under my eye it was black and blue, and I had various bruises and cuts on my face. I wrapped a towel around myself and went back into the room. I saw Joe sitting on the edge of the bed, and I looked around for Colby.
"It was just a cut on my thigh, I'm not bleeding there.." I pointed down there and he smiled at me.
"I was worried. Colby is pissed because I saved you, so he went back to his room." He shrugged and I frowned. It wasn't a competition, but I'm thankful.
"Thank you." I said, and I grabbed some underwear and clothes from my bag, and locked myself in the bathroom. I got changed without looking in the mirror, because I felt embarrassed.
I crawled into bed, and stared at Joe until he turned around to face me. "I should go, will you be ok?" He said, and I frowned.
"If you insist." He said, and I made space for him on the bed. He wrapped his arms around me and I embraced the warmth. I could feel his heartbeat through his chest and mine accelerated even more.
"So, tell me about your 'mama'" He said in a mock Spanish accent, I slapped his chest and relaxed again.
"She treated me like a little princess. I miss her." I said, and his arms tightened around me.
"Baby girl, you're only 21. Of course you're gonna miss her, she's a big part of your life." He said and I looked up at him, I looked at his lips and I was tempted but I couldn't.
"Yeah. I know I'm young, but I don't want people to think less of me because of my age." I said and sighed as a corny commercial popped up on the TV.
"You're so cute, and stubborn." He said and I sat up and gave him my signature death stare, and he smirked at me.
"Did I hurt you?" I said, and I looked at him, he locked his eyes with mine and I saw that the hurt was still evident.
"Look, it's your life and you can do what you want. I just hope you make the right choices." He said and I reached out to hold his hand.
"I'm so sorry. I regret it, I really do. I was just frustrated." I said, and tried to remove the innaproriate images from my mind.
"You don't have to apologise. Jon is like a best friend to me.. It just hurt because of the feelings that.. I know you don't like talking about your feelings so I'll leave it at that, you need to get some sleep." He pulled me into a hug and kissed my cheek, when he pulled away, I couldn't stop staring at his lips.
"Night." I said as he got up, and tears filled my eyes. I hugged the pillow, trying to fall asleep. A few minutes later, I received a text from Jon.
"We need to talk, meet me in the lobby."I was so angry with him, but I could only fit my frustration into two words.
"Fuck you."I sent back and locked my phone, my phone buzzed with a reply but I couldn't be bothered to read it.
I turned over the soaking wet pillow, and tried to get some sleep. I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared, tonight was a shock to me.
I woke up abruptly and my body was aching, I reached around for my phone and saw missed calls from the divas. The news about yesterday must've circulated, what can get worse than that?
"What the fuck." I said as the familiar burning feeling rose in my stomach, and I ran to the bathroom to empty the contents of my stomach. I haven't thrown up in years, it must've been the takeout that Jon brought me the other day. I washed out my mouth and washed my face, I took the bandage off my hand and the stitches were healing nicely.
I couldn't even be bothered to put on makeup to hide the bruises, if people want to talk, they can. I put on my marvel hoodie and shorts with trainers, and headed downstairs to breakfast. As soon as I entered the room, all eyes were on me and I wish I never came here. I sat down next to Nikki and people started to continue their conversations. I took a sip of water and hoped that the nausea would go away.
"Hey, girl." Nikki said, and her face held a worried expression as she skimmed over my features. I felt sick again.
"Hi." I said, and looked around the table, most of the superstars and divas were engrossed in conversation, but there were three pairs of eyes staring back at me. I quickly looked down and my throat started burning again.
"I can't deal with this, sorry." I said standing up and leaving the table, I kept my head down because I felt so embarrassed. I bought this situation onto myself.
"Hey,hey." I heard Randy say and I turned around to face him, he had his arms open and I walked into them. He kissed my forehead, and looked into his piercing eyes which were filled with concern.
"I've missed you." He whispered in my ear and it sent shivers down my spine, I shrugged and started to walk a away but he gripped my hand, the injured hand.
"Yeah, I missed you too. I'm gonna go to my room." I said, and he frowned.
"No, you're coming to mine." I couldn't get out of his death grip, so I followed him to his room anyway.
"I don't want you talking to those guys." Randy said pointing, at the guys at the end of the hallway. He had a death grip on my wrist, and he was actually hurting me.
"Okay." I said as he kissed my cheek and went into a locker room, I had to walk past them to get to the locker room which was awkward in every way.
"Princess." Jon said as I walked past them, I took a deep breath as I went into the locker room and dropped my bags. Tiredness consumed me as I changed into my attire, I wasn't scheduled for a match but the divas were required to look the part backstage too.
"Catalina!" Alicia said as she burst into the locker room and pulled me into a hug. I pulled her away and continued lacing my boots.
"What?" I said, annoyed. I didn't feel like talking to anyone, even though Alicia is a good friend of mine.
"Woah, who took a bitchy pill? And what the hell happened to your face?" She said touching the bruise under my eye, so I'm guessing that only a few people heard the news.
"I fell over." I said looking her straight in the eyes, it was clear from her facial expression that she didn't believe me. Today, I wasn't in the mood for anything. I stood up and left the room to go to hair and makeup, I ignored the stares of the event staff, but it still bothered me.
"What happened here, Hun?" The makeup artist said as she applied concealer under my eye.
"Oh, I'm just clumsy." I said, and avoided eye contact with her. These days, all I see is worry in everyone's eyes.
"Thanks." I said as she finished my hair. I headed to catering, hoping to find someone to talk to. I saw Joe, Colby, and Jon sitting at a table and they waved me over, I looked around and I saw Randy gesturing me over.
"Hey, baby." He said as I sat on his lap, and he used a free hand to trace patterns on my lower back.
"I swear I'm gonna punch him." He said as I took a sip of water. I looked around, confused.
"Who?" I said, and I felt him tense up underneath me.
"Joe, he keeps looking over here." He said and he placed his hands on my waist, to move me.
"No, don't!" I said, and he glared at me. He nudged me off his lap, and got up. He grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the catering area.

"What do you see in them?" He said in a calm voice, but I knew that he was angry.
"I don't know.." I said as he started up the car, I haven't been this scared in a long time.
"You're gonna learn." He said smirking at me, I took a deep breath and gripped onto my bag.
"I don't want you looking at them, speaking to them. You know that I'll switch." He said, pacing the room. I was sitting on his bed, in his room because he wanted me to stay with him.
"But, why?" I said, and he lunged at me, grabbing my throat and staring into my eyes. His eyes were bloodshot and I smelt alcohol on his breath. When he finally let go, I blinked back tears and got underneath the sheets. I turned my back to him and closed my eyes, he wrapped his arms around my waist and all I could think of was 'what have I gotten myself into?'
I woke up in the middle of the night, and Randy wasn't next to me so I decided to go back to my own room. My joints were aching as I unlocked the door and jumped onto the bed, my phone kept buzzing and I decided to ignore it. I finally fell asleep, and I had a vivid dream about Darth Vader, which is completely normal.
"Wake up princess!" I heard outside the door, and I groaned. I threw the sheets off my body and got up, and my head started spinning. I had to use the wall to steady myself. I went to the bathroom and had a quick shower, before getting changed and opening the door. Jon was at the door holding an action figure of Anakin Skywalker, this motherfucker. Unfortunately, I couldn't talk to him or I would get punished by Randy.
"So, you're ignoring me? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to call you that!" He said as I walked past him to find Randy's room. He answered on the first knock and pulled me into the room, he had a gift bag behind his back and I was curious.
"I'm sorry about yesterday, here." He said handing me the gift bag, I reached inside and pulled out a leather covered case. I opened it, and saw a pendant necklace, with the letter 'R' engraved.
"I love it, thank you!" I said as I pulled back my hair, and he reached around to adjust it.
"Good." He said and kissed my shoulder, he practically pushed me out of the room, and I looked down the hallway and saw a half dressed woman looking at Randy.
"Hey, come in." He said, and she nudged me out of the way. I was so angry that I pulled her by her hair and pushed her on the floor. She grabbed onto my hair as I started punching and kicking at her. I felt hands wrap around my waist and lift me up as I threw my final punches.
"I'm still pretty, bitch." She said as she turned her back on me, I lunged forward but ended up being lifted up again.
"Put me, the fuck down." I screamed, I turned around as saw Jon with an amused expression on his face when he put me down. Joe and Colby were staring at me in shock, and I grabbed the necklace and threw it on the floor.
"I hate everyone." I said as I slammed the door and took my shirt off, if I see that bitch again, she's gonna need facial reconstruction surgery. I heard a knock at the door and I went over to answer it.
"I'm guessing the 'R' stands for Roman." He smirked at me and held up the necklace.
"Don't flatter yourself, and I don't fucking want it." I said and he lifted my chin and looked at my neck.
"I'm gonna kill him." He said backing out of the room, I pulled his arm.
"Please don't." I said and he sighed, he focused his attention on me again and shook his head.
"I don't like it." He said staring into my eyes, I looked down at the pendant and realised that I didn't like it either.
"I see that look in your eyes, you're scared. It's my job to stop you from feeling that way, ok? I don't care if you ignore me, or sleep with my friend. If you're happy, that's all that matters to me." He said, and I looked up to avoid the tears building up, but failed. He pulled me into a hug and kissed my cheek. For the first time in a while, I felt safe.
"Why do you care about me? I'm a bitch." I said and I felt the vibrations through his chest as he laughed.
"Because, I- " He said, and I heard a loud knock at the door. I pulled away and reached for my shirt and put it on. I walked to the door and opened it, Jon was standing there with the action figure covering his face.
"Please forgive me." He said handing me the action figure and wrapping his arms around my waist.
"You puta." I said, and I kissed his cheek. I pulled away and started opening the action figure like a child on Christmas Day.
"Randy is a man whore, I thought we told you to stay away from him, anyway?" Jon rolled his eyes and sat on the bed. Then, the memories came back to me.
"He's a fucking hijo de puta. If I see that hoe again, I'll rip the implants out of her chest." I said and adjusted the cape on my action figure.
"You've been cured of your blindness." Joe said, and I glared at him. But, I guess it was true.
"Eva's calling." Jon said, and he left the room.
"I need to find an apartment in Florida.." I said and Joe grinned at me, I blushed and continued role playing with my action figure, which sounds really wrong.
"You can move in with me." Joe said casually, and I looked at him in shock.
"Are you stupid? You have a girlfriend." I said, and he shook his head.
"No. I told her that I don't have feelings for her anymore, but she still travels to meet me at shows. So, in my mind, I'm single." He said and I dropped my action figure in shock. Yes, this was a dramatic moment.
"I'll be your wing woman, there's a cool bar in-." I said, and I burst out laughing at the thought of women fighting over him.
"I don't need one, I think I've found someone already." He said, and my heart dropped. I guess I messed up my chances.
"Oh, lucky girl." I said, trying not to sound hurt. That was clearly impossible though.
"Yeah, but she doesn't even realise how much I want her." He said and I looked up at him, as our eyes locked, I felt that familiar spark I felt when he kissed for the first time.
