Chapter 18
The next morning John let Lily sleep in a little bit. He figured that she deserved it after the way she went out there and handled business in the ring. So, while she slept, John showered and ordered room service. Lilyana woke up just as the food arrived. She smiled when she noticed that he had ordered all of her favorites.
"Thanks Dad. Have I told you how much I love you lately?" Lily said.
"You're welcome Princess and yes, you tell me every day but it never gets old." John said grinning at her.
After breakfast, they headed to the gym. They had a great workout and even got in some work on in ring maneuvers. John and Lily loved spending that time together as father and daughter. It was a great way for them to strengthen their bond. They worked out for about 2 hours and decided that was enough for now. As they were leaving, Brock and his daughter walked in.
"Well look what we have here." Brock said.
"Ewe Dad, do we really have to work out in the same gym as trash like that?" Jessica whined.
John was not amused but he tried to ignore them. He looked over at Lily and knew that she was about to go off. He put his hand on her shoulder and whispered to her to calm her down. Lily wasn't having it and shook his hand off. Before he could stop her, Brock was in John's face. Lily took the opportunity and walked over to Jessica. She stared her down and was about to punch her but was stopped by someone behind her.
"Come on Lily Pad, she isn't worth it. Just remember, you will get your chance at her in the ring." Cody said as he pulled her away from the other girl.
"Dang it Flying Squirrel, let me go. I am going to punch that bitch right in the mouth. No one calls my dad trash and gets away with it." Lily ranted as she struggled to get free.
Her struggling was useless because Cody wasn't letting her go until she calmed down. She finally relaxed a little and noticed that Randy was talking to John. Cody and Randy had walked into the gym just in time to stop the Cenas from brawling with the Lesnars. John had calmed down rather quickly compared to his daughter. She was not only a Cena but she also had the temper that seems to go along with being a red head.
"Lilyana, watch the language. Cody is right; you will get your chance at her in the ring. In fact, I have a few things I need to talk to you about." John said.
Lily looked at her dad curiously. John walked over to her grinning. He told Cody it was ok to let her go now so Cody did.
"Come on. Let's get out of here and I will tell you all about what Mr. McMahon wanted last night." He told his daughter.
So the two went back to their room and sat on the couch. John told her everything that Vince had suggested and Lily looked shocked.
"So let me get this straight, first of all he wants me to be involved in some kind of relationship storyline between you and Eve where she plays the evil future step mom? And he wants me to be the one that causes the two of you to break up?" Lily asked her dad.
"Yeah, it will be the classic Daddy's Lil Princess vs. Daddy's new girlfriend kind of thing. I know you don't like Eve very well but I know you can make it work." He told her.
Lily thought about it for a few minutes and agreed with her dad. At least it wouldn't be hard for her to pretend to dislike her enough to chase her away.
"Ok, I guess I can handle it. So explain the other two things to me." Lily said.
John explained to Lily that Vince wanted to put on a WWE summer camp for kids ages 12-17. It would be for both boys and girls since he planned on introducing a Junior Superstars division eventually. He wanted Lily to attend the camp and be a part of it. He also planned on having the Divas and Superstars be part of the camp staff. They would take turns being there since they all had to be available for shows still.
"Wait, are you saying I would have to be a camp for 2 entire months and that you won't always be there?" Lily asked.
"Yes Princess. Will you be ok with that?" John asked concerned.
"Yeah, as long as at least one of the wrestlers I trust is there I am ok but why June 15 – August 15? That means we will be at camp for the Fourth of July as well. How will we see fireworks and such?" she said.
John explained that the 4th of July would be a family day and that Vince planned on putting on a fireworks show at the camp. They would also have activities, wrestling matches, a cook out, and a big camp fire. Lily decided it didn't sound so bad and finally agreed to do it.
"You and Cody both said I would get my chance at Jessica Lesnar in the ring so what about that?" Lily inquired.
"Well, in a few weeks, Vince wants us to be part of the first ever father/daughter tag team match. It will be you and me versus Brock and Jessica. What do you think?" John replied.
Lily grinned that famous Cena grin and told her dad that she couldn't wait. So even though she despised the whole Eve storyline, she was kind of excited about the rest. Overall, John thought the conversation had gone well.
After that they just chilled watching movies. Lily loved Disney movies and John was happy to oblige his daughter, so they spent a few hours watching Disney classics. They had just finished watching Aladdin and started watching Lion King when John's phone rang. Lily frowned but continued to watch the movie while John went and answered his cell. Once he answered it, he let Lily know that he was going to take the call in the hallway. She nodded and went back to watching the movie.
"What the hell do you mean that Marvin's trial has been moved up to tomorrow? How can they do that? Lilyana and I are in Nevada. Yeah, I will see what I can arrange. Thank you. Bye." An irate John Cena said and hung up his cell.
He paced the hallway for a few minutes calming down. He knew this news was going to upset Lily and he wasn't happy about it. He knew that him being calm would help her to stay calm also. Before he went back in the room, he called Randy.
"Hurry up and get your ass up here Orton. Lily isn't going to take this well and you know it." He said and hung up.
He had filled Randy in on everything and then went back in the room with his daughter. She was sitting on the couch singing along to the movie. His heart broke watching how peaceful and happy she was watching the movie and knowing he was about to interrupt that. What he had to tell her would not be easy for her at all. It didn't take Randy long to get there and they both sat on the couch, one on each side of Lily.
"Princess, my Lil Flower, Uncle Randy and I need to talk to you." John said quietly turning off the movie while he did.
