Chapter 6: The Nick and Jessica of the WWE

Shannon could honestly say she was having some genuine fun. The girls had been working out for a few hours and had been showing Shannon and Eva some basic wrestling moves. Nothing real technical though. Shannon had always watched wrestling and observed but she never actually knew the name of the moves and what they were used for. But of course anytime it seemed she was having fun something had to ruin it or in this case someone. Out of nowhere she felt a persistent tap on her shoulder. She turned around to meet the glaring stare of Melina one of the members of WWE's newest excuse of a team MNM.

"Yeah can I help you with somethin?" Shannon asked calmly even though she was completely annoyed at the sight of the diva.

"I don't know if you know this, but this gym is only for the superstars of the WWE, not staff members." Melina explained with disgust as she said staff members.

"Oh I'm sorry I thought this was for all the guests of the hotel. I must have forgotten that it was reserved while everyone was staying here. But I see what you're saying. It is getting a bit crowded in here. Oh wait that's just Melina's ego taking up all the space." Shannon said hearing some hushed laughs throughout the room. Eva walked up to stand beside Shannon.

"How about you stop worrying about us and actually work out. Cause just between us, you're looking like you need it. You shouldn't have everything surgically modified. After awhile it's considered unhealthy." Eva spoke up pretending to whisper but actually she let the whole room hear her

"Oh you little bitch!" Melina said looking at Eva.

"Good comeback!" someone in the room yelled.

"Wow Melina I really wish I had your job. You get paid to be yourself. 100 percent all bitch. A fake bitch at that. By the way I don't think it's a good idea to be antagonizing the people who make you look half way decent out there in front of millions of people." Shannon said referring to the makeup and styling department.

"Or the people who prevent any accidents that could throw you out of the game. I wouldn't wanna see you get seriously injured because Shannon might not be able to assist you back to health. Even though that is her job as a staff member." Eva smirked. At that moment the other two members of MNM decided to join Melina.

"Whatever, MNM does not need any help from either of you. My advice is watch your backs." Melina said as she and the rest of MNM left.

"Um Eva are we supposed to be scared?" Shannon asked looking at Eva.

"I think so. Do you feel anything?"

"Hmm..nope, nothing."

"Yeah me neither." Eva said as they both started laughing. They turned back to the two divas. They were shocked to say the least.

"I can't believe you just said that stuff. Everyone was thinking that but you actually said it. That was awesome!" AJ said excitedly.

"You two would be perfect divas. Add some much needed backbone into the group." Eve laughed.

"Yeah right." Shannon laughed. "I'm hungry, correct that I'm really, really hungry."

"Yo tambiƩn."(me too) Eva said following her with the other girls.

*Meanwhile between the guys*

"That was too good." Rey said chuckling."That Melina was asking for it."

"My girl is so sexy when she's telling people off." John said smiling.

"Oh so she's your girl now huh?" Dave asked chuckling.

"Technically, no, not yet." John paused. "But she will be so don't be getting any ideas."

"You know I'm completely into Eva and I wouldn't do that to you man." Dave replied.

"Yeah but I would." Randy nudged John.

"Do it and I'll kick your ass. Plus Shannon thinks you have a big ego."

"Bigger than you?" he laughed.

"Yeah that's about the only thing you have that's bigger than mine." he laughed at the look on Randy's face.

"Moving on." Randy declared trying to move the topic away from him.

"Seriously though, they know how to put on one hell of a show. They'd be great in this bidness." John said taking the hint.

"You have a point, even I'm getting bored of the new divas that really aren't doing much but moving and shaking in front of everybody." Randy responded.

"We should talk to Vince about them and the possibility of some contracts:" Dave nodded.

"Only thing is, neither of them have any formal training or any kind for that matter. Me and Dave would be happy to help but I mean girls fight a lot different than guys. " John sighed.

"How hard can it be? It's not like there are many possibilities for fighting in the women's division. There are a few who are coming in but they need to extend it cuz most of the new girls have no interest in actually wrestling." Dave thought aloud

"Well I could call in some favors and see if they would like to train the two of them cuz they most likely will. Lita was training Christy before so it's not unheard of." Edge said putting himself into the conversation.

"Ask them and then get back to us. Vince probably will go for it if we put up a good enough argument." John said.

*Back to the girls*

The girls had decided on eating at White Castle.(Yum!) A lot of places they visited didn't have them and it was a shame. At least that's what Shannon thought. They chit chatted about general things.

"Another air flight tomorrow." Alicia groaned.

"Which means another early morning. Soooo not fun." Shannon sighed.

"Yeah that's the only crappy thing about this type of job." Eva agreed.

Shannon was about to say something but then her cell phone rang. She checked the caller ID and saw it was John calling.

"No comments from anybody while I take this call." Shannon said looking at each of them.

"It's probably her luuuuuuuuver boy. That's why." Eva laughed. Shannon glared at her."Sorry had to get it out of my system." Shannon waited a moment and then answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hey girl where you at?" he asked in that voice. Shannon loved his voice way more than she'd ever admit. She slowly drifted away from the others to leave.

"We were just leaving White Castle and then I was gonna head back to the hotel and take a shower. How bout you?"

"Yeah I was about to do the same. Hey I have a great idea. Since you're taking a shower and I'm taking a shower, why don't we just take one together?"

"Hmmm lemme think about it...no." she laughed. Damn did he love her laugh.

"Can't blame a guy for trying." he said disappointingly.

"I guess I can't especially since I'm just sooo damn hot ya know?" she said sarcastically.

"Just have to wait for another time then. Maybe you'd prefer a bubble bath to a shower."she could practically hear the smirk on his face. (you know if that were possible. I think it kinda is lol)

"Maybe...so was there any particular reason behind this call or did you just need to hear my voice?" Shannon asked curiously.

"I was just gonna ask if you wanted to hang out or something."

"Yeah why not? I'll send Eva over there when I'm done. I think she mentioned her and Dave were gonna go walk somewhere." she laughed

"Aight sounds good to me."

"See you later." she hung up and looked over to her newly acquired audience who continued to hound her all the way back to the hotel. Shannon practically ran up to her room once they got there. She knew that the reason everybody made her and John such a big deal was because Shannon would deny there was something between them. Unlike Eva who usually would blush and not put up a fight. Before Eva got into her shower Shannon told Eva what she told John and to let her know when she was leaving. Shannon had wanted to pack up her stuff so it wasn't all over the place when John got there. When she was done she climbed into her shower.

As she was getting out and drying off there was a knock on the bathroom door.

"Hey I'm leaving girlie so put some clothes on. I'll tell John he can come over."

"Aight have fun."

"How can I not with Dave. And I know you'll have fun too. " she giggled.

"You're lucky you're my best friend or I'd smack you." she replied wrapping a towel around herself.

"I know but you love me too much."

"Ha ha you better get your ass moving before I change my mind."

"See you later."

"Yeah unless you and Dave can't keep your hands off each other and John has to stay here cuz he's to scared to see the big guy naked." Shannon said laughing hysterically.

"Thank that door it's separating me from you."

"Bye Eva." she said as Eva closed the door.

Shannon hurried to get some clothes on before John got there. Not that he would mind but she would die. Her insecurities really enjoyed annoying the hell out of her. Just as she pulled on her black tank top to accompany her comfy pants, there was a knock on the door.

"Be there in a sec." she said as she removed the towel from her head and shook her hair out. She looked through the peep hole just in case and saw John standing there looking awkward.

"You're so cute when you fidget." Shannon said to him before opening the door. When she did he replied. "I knew you thought I was cute." She rolled her eyes in response and walked further into the room.

"Oh yeah here's your copy of my CD." he paused as he pulled it out of his pocket. "There's something in there for you so don't open it until tomorrow. It'll give you something to do on the plane."

"What's wrong John? You don't wanna be embarrassed? Fine, I'll be nice and not open it, but the suspense is killing me." She sighed and slid it into her carry on bag. She plopped down on the bed and grabbed the remote to start flipping through the channels. Then she noticed that John was just standing there near the bed. That rose an eyebrow. Motioning for him to join her she couldn't resist.

"What's wrong? I thought you were dying to get in bed with me." she laughed.

"You're on my side." He stated simply.

"How is that?"

"I don't know it's that whole macho thing kicking in. Me, man. Me, protect beautiful woman from creepy people who might break in."

"Nice save." she replied scooting over. "But what about if someone comes through the window?" she waited for a response while he made himself comfortable. He looked down as if searching for something to say. Then he turned his head to look at her.

"Shannon, we're on the 7th floor. Unless they can fly or have some suction cups on their hands and feet I doubt we have to worry."

Looking at the window she burst out laughing. "That cannot be better described than a Jessica Simpson moment." she looked back at him. "Ha if we were together we'd be the Nick and Jessica of the WWE. Except you know I have black hair and I only act like her occasionally." John just stared down at her.

"Speaking of your hair. Since when do you have that curly of hair?"

"Since I was born. But I usually straighten it or wear it wavy."

"Leave it alone I like it this way."

She looked up at him to meet his eyes. It seemed to dawn on her all of a sudden how close they were...in her bed. She decided to ignore that fact and focus on the television even though he smelled really good and his really nice full kissable lips were less than a foot away from her. Ahhh focus on the tv Shannon! Her mind babbled

"So do you want to order a movie?" she asked in a desperate attempt to distract herself.

"I'm up for that. What you wanna watch?"

"It's all up to you cuz you're paying for it." she winked at him.

"So that's how it is huh?"

"Yup and I know I might regret saying this, but I'm cold so can we get under the covers?"

"Sure thing babygirl. But on one condition."

"What's that?" she asked suspiciously.

"You have to cuddle up close to me, but you have to promise not to take advantage of me."

"You're really something you know that?" she said but she complied with his request happily.


John's POV

This is completely perfect! I thought to myself as Shannon came closer and laid her head on my chest. I put my arm around her to hold her close. I fittingly chose a romantic comedy to watch. Although I couldn't actually watch the movie. Every part of me was somewhere else. The cold strands of her damp hair made my neck tingle although her contrasting warm body created a similar sensation. The smell of her hair was light yet refreshingly tropical. I couldn't help but think of what she had said before. About us being together. Simply thinking about it made me happy. This girl was really bringing out a part of me that no one has seen. I have never felt so content with a woman before I met her. And we hadn't even done anything sexual. I mean feeling like this before we've even done that makes me really curious on how good it will be. But I shouldn't think that far ahead. She might not even think of me that way or she might just want to be friends. Ok stop thinking so much and enjoy the damn moment John.
