Chapter 15

Kayla and her worst nightmare entered her hotel room. This can't be real!

She turned around when he closed the door behind him.

"What do you want?"she asked him right away.

"What do you think?" he smirked at her.

She rolled her eyes. This was exhausting!

"Ok, I'll tell you. I want you, it's as simple at it sounds. We had a good time you must admit, Kayla."

"Oh yeah, I had a great time with you, especially the last two years of our relationship."

Nicolas came closer to her. Stay away!

"Listen, you asked a question and I answered. No need to be sarcastic or anything. We don't have to hurry or something. We can take it slow."

She couldn't believe what she just heard. Taking it slow?

"You really think I want you? After all you did to me? I'm sorry, but no."

"You should think twice, honey. Don't be too confident, just because you know some wrestlers. After all you're just an average girl and they can get any girl they want, keep that in mind when you're being cocky to me again. "

He went to her sofa and sat down looking at her.

"Thought you wanted to help me with my ring gear.."

This was the first time she hated her job.

She sat down next to him, making sure there was enough space between them. The last thing she wanted was to give him a wrong signal. She wasn't interested in him at all.

Back to business.

"Do you have anything on your mind? Like colors or what style do you prefer?" she asked annoyed. She decided to not say anything about what he said. She just wanted him to leave as soon as possible so she tried to focus.

"Hmm, I think I could think about it better if we'd go out for dinner or a drink or something."

"Not going to happen. Focus." she said.

"Sorry, I really can't think of anything else than something to eat or at least a drink."

"Stop it!" she said. She was fed up with his games. It was ridiculous and a mistake to help him.

"Ok nevermind, we can talk about it tomorrow. I'm tired and you're obviously not up for some fun. I'll come back tomorrow." he said getting up from the couch.

"Think about something for your costume, it would save me some nerves." she said as he left her alone.

He turned around before he reached the door.

"That's what I've meant, Kayla. You're too cocky." he said as he left her alone.

Could it get any worse?

The next day Joe was on his way to the cafeteria to grab some food and he secretly hoped to see Kayla to apologize to her.

He grabbed a coffee and some cereals when he heard someone saying his name.

He turned around and saw a stranger standing in front of him.

"May I introduce myself first. My name is Nicolas and I guess you could say I'm the new guy on this ship. Very nice to meet you."

He shook his hand.

"I'm Joe, nice to meet you to. Why don't you grab a coffee too and sit down with me?"

He nodded and grabbed a coffee.

Nicolas followed Joe to an table and sat down facing him.

"Where do you come from, Nicolas?" Joe took a sip from his coffee.

"Germany."

"Oh, our seamstress comes from Germany too. Her name is Kayla." he said smiling by thinking about her.

"Oh really? Maybe I'll meet her soon."

"You will, she will take care of your costume. Anyways how come you want to become a wrestler?"

"Oh wait, speaking of her, Kayla!" he yelled and waved to her.

Kayla turned around and saw Nicolas and Joe sitting on the same table talking.

All of the sudden she felt dizzy. This is just a dream. A nightmare. Nicolas probably told Joe everything about their relationship.

She almost fell to the floor when Joe ran towards her.

"Everything okay?" he asked holding her.

She nodded. Of course my abusive ex-boyfriend is talking to you at the table probably lying about everything , but everything's fine.

"Come sit with us at the table." he said and helped her sit down next to him.

"Kayla, this is our newest member. His name is Nicolas and he is from Germany too, isn't that funny?"

Nicolas reached out his hand.

"I'm Nicolas, nice to meet you, Kayla." he said looking at her intense.

Kayla looked at him confused and shook his hand. He was playing the stranger game. Oh joy!

"You guys don't know each other, right?" Joe asked confused by her reaction.

"Oh, sadly no. But we can get to know each other." he said smirking.

"Excuse me, I have some work do to. Nice to meet you Nicolas. See you around, Joe." said Kayla as she left both men.

"She's not always like this, she's probably very busy. Anyways you have to come to our training session with my teammates Seth and Jon. Let's say about 11a.m.?"

Nicolas nodded.

"Aight, we'll meet you at the ring, Nicolas. Gotta go get some things done." Joe said as he left.

Kayla was on her way to the office. Her life is a disaster right now. Not only he showed up but he seems to be already good friends with Joe. He'll never believe her ever again if she'd tell him the truth about him. He just won't believe her.

She closed her office door behind her and started to focus on work.

Nicolas and the Shield met at the ring. Even Jon was there.

"Hey Nicolas! Come on over. This is Seth and this is Jon." Joe said pointing to his teammates.

"Hi, I'm the rookie. I'm Nicolas." he greeted them.

"And you want to become a wrestler?" Jon asked while he chewed a bubble gum.

"Yes, it's my biggest wish."

"Let's see what you can do." he said as he stepped towards him and put him in a headlock already.

Nicolas struggled to get out of it while Jon wasn't going easy on him.

After a few minutes Jon stepped back.

"You'll have to practice a lot." Jon simply said.

"Come on man, don't be so hard on him." Seth said.

"It's okay guys, he's right. I don't have that much experinces. I'm thankful for every advice you guys have."

The three of them continued to practice when Jon not leaving Nicolas out of his visual field. He didn't liked the "rookie".

When the four men finished their training the took a shower and changed in the locker room.

"Thank you very much for your time, guys. I really appreciate it." Nicolas said.

"Anytime, Nicolas. See you around." Seth said when Nicolas left the room.

"What's wrong with you, Jon? You can't be that rude to someone new." Joe said.

"I don't know about him. His skills are bad. He has to practice a lot. Nevermind, that's not my problem. See you around." Jon said while he left.

He was on his way to the parking lot when he saw Nicolas and Kayla talking. He couldn't hear what exactly they were talking about but it sounded familiar.

"What are you doing to my life, Nicolas? You're lying to Joe and the rest saying we don't know each other?" Kayla said.

"Calm down, okay. I don't think they have to know about my past. Our past. They like me and you can't stand it, admit it." he said smirking.

"I don't care who likes you, the fact that these are my friends and not yours is making me mad."

He laughed out loud.

"Poor little Kayla is jealous that her friends like me more than they like her." he mocked her.

"Stop it. You know that ain't true. I just want you to go away, out of my life!"

"You're scared I would tell your secret, ain't you?"

"Just get away from here!"

He stepped forward and hold both her arms against the wall.

"Listen up, if you tell them something, before I do, I will make your life the worst nightmare you can think of."

"Now you listen up, leave her alone or I will make your life the worst nightmare ever." Jon said coming out of the dark looking at the scenario.

Nicolas stepped back. And laughed awkwardly.

"Oh Jon, didn't hear you coming. It's just some fun talk between us germans. Crazy people, I can tell you." he said letting go of her.

"Let me be the judge of that. Kayla, come over. Are you okay?" he asked her concerned.

She just nodded looking at Nicolas.

"I don't care if that's just fun talk or whatever. If I see you touching her again we'll have a problem, aight?" he said calm. A bit too calm.

Nicolas nodded. She never saw him that quiet. He is usually never that calm. She had to admit that she liked seeing him that way. Almost intimidated.

"Then leave now." Jon said.

Nicolas looked at Kayla once again and left both of them. This time she won. It was a great feeling.

"What was that about?" Jon asked her

"It's nothing. Like he said, just some-"

"I don't care for what he said. What do you say about it. About him?"

"You really starting to care about me, Jon? Really?"

"I thought you needed my help. And I think you needed some help. He told you to not say anything to anybody, what was that about?"

Kayla rolled her eyes. Not just that Nicolas was annoying her, Jon was getting on her nerves too. Either he liked her or not but telling her to fuck off and hen helping her and stick his nose in her business is not the help she needed right now.

"Nothing, and I really have to go."

Jon stopped her by holding her arm and looking deep in her eyes.

"I'm serious Kayla. I can go and tell Joe and Seth about this little talk you had because as far as I know the think you guys don't know each other. So now talk."

"Are you blackmailing me?"

"You leave me no choice."

She breathed in very loud.

"Let's just say he is my ex-boyfriend and I don't have the best memories about this relationship. But please, don't ask any more questions, I'm not ready to talk about it."
Jon nodded.

"What is he doing here? Do I need to worry about you?"

"You? No, I can handle him myself."

Jon chuckled.

"Yeah sure, just saw that."

"I'm serious, thank you for helping me this time and for showing me you're not an complete asshole. At least sometimes."

"I won't say anything to Joe and Seth for now. You know my room number. Knock whenever it's needed." he said.

She couldn't believe his offer. Jon turned into a nice guy? Is this really happening?

Who would've thought Jon was there to help?
