Alix smiled a little at Big Show's words. A big deal to the WWE, huh? Can I big a big deal to Rey first? Then I'll look at the WWE…
Within minutes of the car beginning to move, Alix was fast asleep, head against the window and lightly snoring. Big Show smiled a little at this. The girl seemed to have been through so much, and still had a bouncy, spunky little attitude. I wonder how much she's really been through…
The headlights in front of and behind Big Show's Hummer made it look like one long funeral procession. Ha! He thought, trying to keep his laugh only inside his head as to not wake the sleeping girl. If only the Undertaker weren't kayfabe dead…this would be his ultimate scene.
It only took about ten minutes for the entirety of the roster to get to the hotel. They always tried to stay relatively near whatever arena they were performing at, and always all together. Or as close to all as they could get.
Big Show parked the Hummer and looked over Alix's sleeping form. He didn't want to wake her; she was so peaceful and this seemed like the best sleep she had gotten in a long time. Which is sad…this isn't a bed…it's a car…
Unfortunately it wasn't long before he saw the incoming form of John Cena to the passenger side.
Oh no…you are not going to…
"Show!" Cena barked, looking up through the window. Big Show winced, glancing over Alix again. It was like nothing had ever met her ears.
"Can it!" Big Show hissed. "She's asleep!"
Cena's eyes widened as he clapped his hands to his mouth. Shit. He thought, trying to keep the swearing, even in his head, to a minimum. He didn't want to slip up on stage.
He quietly opened the door, and sure enough, Alix was fast asleep in the passenger seat. Show glared daggers at him with a look that said, I. Will. Sit. On you.
Cena shook his head. "I'll just carry her in man, chill. It's all good, I won't wake her up."
Big Show bit his bottom lip, trying to decide whether to trust John Cena with this new girl was a good idea or not. After a few seconds he nodded and Cena gently slid his hands under her knees and back; picking her up easily.
Alix sighed contently in her sleep and brought her head to Cena's shoulder. He was caught by surprise at this, and almost dropped her, but managed to keep his shock to a minimum.
"Cena, what'd you do?" Kofi Kingston muttered as he walked closer to John.
"Nothing." Cena shook his head, trying to make sure that Alix didn't wake up. "She fell asleep in Show's van, I'm just taking her up to her room."
"Takin' a liking to her, huh?" Kingston's eyes noticeably darkened a shade or two, and for once, he was kind of really intimidating.
"Nah, nah man, I'm married." John's face showed a look of disgust. "She's cool though, definitely someone to hang out with time to time."
Kofi nodded sharply and walked off to where he had come from. Cena made sure he was far enough away and started walking with Big Show to Show's room.
"Think she'll be around awhile?" Cena asked, with a bit of hopefulness in his voice as the two walked down one of the second floor hallways.
"Prolly." Big Show shrugged. "Not many of you guys would let her go out on her own again, and she doesn't have any other place to stay, does she?"
Cena shook his head no. As far as he knew, Alix was completely on her own with nowhere else to go.
"Well then yeah." Show nodded. "You guys aren't gonna let her leave, so she'll be with us for a long while.
Cena beamed as Show slipped his card key in and out of the lock on the hotel door. He walked in and gently placed Alix on one of the two beds that was in the room. John sat on the end of the bed and looked over at Alix, who, apart from her one move by Big Show's car hadn't moved or made any noise at all.
Big Show waited patiently for John to get up and out of his room. He was sitting near Alix, just staring at her, and Show began to get impatient. Fairly quickly.
"John. You can go now." He said with a slightly sharp edge to his voice, motioning out the door.
Cena jolted up, and looked over at Show, coming back to reality.
"Oh…yeah, man, sorry, I…uh…well, I'll see you." He gave a short wave over his shoulder to Big Show as he walked out the door and to the elevator to get to his own room.
Show gave a short, semi-frustrated sigh as he got ready to sleep. What this girl was holding over the wrestlers' necks to get all of their attention he didn't know. It didn't take long to fall back into his bed and fall quickly asleep, not needing to think anymore about the new girl that had caused small bouts of chaos in their lives.
"What is…?" Alix slowly woke and looked turned to the clock sitting on the bedside table. Three in the morning…
Slowly, a low rumble filled the room, coming from Alix's right. It stopped soon enough, but her eyes were still wide. What the hell is that?
The rumble started again and this time was a little louder. Alix's pulse raced as she tried to think of what the source of the monstrous noise could be. She looked over to where it was originating and saw the rumbling form of…
Big Show.
Alix almost laughed. That's right. I'm rooming with Big Show…I don't remember walking up… Musta' fallen asleep in the car or something and he brought me up. Aww, that's so nice of him.
The noise started again and Alix sighed impatiently.
I'm never gonna get to sleep with that…
She stood up and made her way quietly for the door, getting out soon enough and looking both ways down the hallway, trying to think of what she should do.
I could always start running. Get outta here, won't ever have to worry about them again. But…they trust me…
Alix turned to her left and looked at each of the doors, wondering how much of the hotel was filled with wrestlers. I wonder if I can room with someone else…
She walked to the end of the hallway and had picked three doors at the end that seemed to her that would have the greatest chance of having an okay wrestler.
Eenie, meeney, miney, moe, catch a tiger by his toe, if he hollers, let him go, eenie meeney, miney, moe…
By the end of this, the one on the very left was picked. Alix walked up to it and knocked quietly, hoping that there was a wrestler in there and not some other normal person.
The door opened and Alix was answered with a yawn.
"Alix…?" the lumbering figure asked. "I heard you were here…"
"Hey Hunter." Alix grinned. "Yeah…I'm here."
"Why…?"
"Long story…"
"I heard you had to room with Show too." Hunter looked progressively more confused. "Why are you here at…three in the morning?"
Alix looked down, Hunter sounded a little disappointed. "Show snores…loud…"
Hunter laughed, his eyes brightening quickly. "Course. Come in, guessing you just want somewhere to sleep?"
Alix nodded and Hunter smiled. "Just grab that bed by the balcony, I had this one."
Alix nodded again and slipped into bed, snuggling deep under the covers. Hunter turned the light off again and muttered a quiet, "good night."
"Buenas noches, Hunter…" Alix whispered, turning toward the balcony and watching the city that was a few stories below her.
A few minutes later, a light, "…Hunter?" was heard.
"Yeah, Alix?"
"Where's Shawn?"
"He stays in a different hotel so the rest of the brand doesn't figure out who he is. What, you don't like me?"
Alix laughed quietly. "Course I do, I just thought the DX boys would be rooming together."
"You're bent on getting DX back together, aren't ya?"
"Hell yeah." Alix replied confidently. Her confidence faltered, however, when she remembered what all had happened with Mysterio. "…what about Mysterio?"
"What do you mean? Where is he?"
"No, I mean what do you think he thinks about…" Alix trailed off. She didn't want to sound vain, though she kind of was for that moment.
"Dunno, kid. Think I heard him talkin' 'bout you to someone else, but that coulda' been Bourne. I was tired as hell."
"Are you still?"
"Not really." Hunter admitted. "When in the WWE, you learn to function on small increments of sleep."
Alix smiled, happy about this.
For hours Hunter and Alix talked, trading questions both about the WWE and each others lives neither really caring how late it was.
This ain't bad… Alix thought as the sun began to rise.
