YAY CHAPTER 3! Yeah I really didn't know where I wanted to go with this chapter. I guess just another filler until Cassie meets the roster. Sorry if this is short, but I plan for the next one to be long. Some of the wrestlers may seem out of character, but I do believe that they are completely different than their characters. Well some of them. Thank you to my one reviewer Moxie Steele. Happy that you are enjoying the story!

Cassie was on her way to Tampa, going to the NXT Arena. It was going to be her last night working with the younger talent and all the staff. It made her really sad thinking about it.

Everyone was always really nice to her while she worked there, and she even made some friends within the talent. It was going to be hard to say good bye to them.

"Really hope I don't cry," she said as she turned up her radio. Stephanie and Paul had hung around the other night to fill Cassie in with some things that she needed to know about her first day.

The roster would be in a meeting where she will be introduced and they would talk about future story lines that were to lead up to Payback. Then when they were released, she had the entire time to get to know the roster.

She was nervous about that part. Yeah she knew a lot about the on screen characters, but she didn't know them off screen. She didn't want them to not like her. She wanted to make an impression on them. The WWE roster are her celebrities. She looked up to most of them and didn't want that image tarnished. It sucked when your heroes turned out to be assholes.

She pulled into the backstage parking area of the arena. She flashed a card to show that she worked there. She quickly parked, turning her truck off, and jumped out. She locked her car as she walked into the building. She checked her phone to see where Monty (Billy Gunn) told her where to meet Virgil (Dusty).

She thought that was a little weird that she needed to meet up with him, but she didn't think anything of it. Stephanie may have contacted him and said something. She also thought it was a bit weird that she hadn't seen anybody yet. Usually somebody was around for her to talk with.

She walked up to the conference room door that everyone always met in at some point in time. She opened the door, the lights turning on.

"CONGRATULATIONS!" A room full of staff yelled out along with the NXT roster. Cassie jumped.

"Holy Shit!" She hid behind the door. Her head stuck out as she saw everyone, gathered around a cake. "What the hell!?" She yelled at them. A few of them laughed.

"You jumped a mile high!" Tom (Baron Corbin) laughed out. "That was awesome! Do it again!"

"Shut up you ass!" Cassie yelled back at him. "Remind me to tell people to never surprise me ever again." She came out from behind the door, and walked more into the room.

"Did you really think that we wouldn't celebrate?" Saraya (Paige) came up to her, throwing her arm around Cassie's shoulders.

"Well not really. How do you guys even know?"

"Stephanie called Steve (FCW President) and explained everything to him."

"Unlike somebody who should have called," Steve said to her.

Cassie smiled, scratching her head.

"Yeah probably, but you love me soooo no hard feelings?"

"Of course."

Cassie looked down at the cake. It was a last minute thought, she could tell. It was a birthday cake, but she noticed that Happy Birthday was scrapped off and somebody with really bad writing wrote Congrats! In each corner stood one of her favorite wrestlers.

"Nice cake," Cassie teased.

"Only the best for you," Austin (Judas Devlin) said to her.

"Oh well that's comforting." Everyone laughed at her.

Everyone was enjoying the little make shift party before the show started. Nobody really touched the cake, not wanting to fill up on sugar before they wrestled. Most were sitting around stretching and enjoying the buffet of food sitting around.

"So how does it feel to be in the big leagues?" Tom asked Cassie.

"Well seeing that I haven't worked there yet, no idea," she took a sip of her iced tea.

"Ok, well how about knowing you are going to be working with the top people?"

"I don't think it's sunk in yet to be honest. I feel like it hasn't happened, that I didn't get the job."

"It probably will once you meet the roster," Saraya told her. "Once you see them it will all be real."

"Yeah maybe," Cassie sat back in her seat. "I'm nervous as hell to work with them though. I've watched some of them for years. What if I screw up?"

"Everyone screws up love," Saraya continued. "We even screw up."

"Yeah, but Vince wasn't really big on me. I'm sure he's waiting for me to fuck up somewhere down the road."

"Oh please," Tom got back into the conversation. "He waits for everybody to screw up. Trust me you'll be fine. Just make sure you be yourself and don't let them change you."

"Yeah," Austin jumped in. "You are really good at this. They won't get rid of you that easily once you start making the show better."

"Thanks guys," she smiled. "However, I won't be doing much for awhile. Stephanie told me they already have story lines that they don't want to touch right now. I'm more of the jobber writer," she laughed.

"Yeah and when the fans see how well the jobbers matches and feuds are, they'll change their minds."

"I sure hope so," Cassie looked over at the cake. "So am I allowed to take the toys home?"

Her friends looked at the cake and then back at her. They started laughing, shaking their heads.

"You are too much," Austin said.

Cassie pulled into her drive-way later that night. She really enjoyed her last NXT show. Everything seemed so perfect, and everyone was really happy that she got her dream job.

She was really going to miss everyone and made sure that they knew. Her parting words were that she hoped everyone kept in contact with her and she would do the same. Her few years at NXT she learned a lot and that was because they all were so open to her working there. She had told them that she couldn't wait to work with them again in the future when they started their WWE careers. She wasn't going to lie, she cried a little. She never really believed the whole co-workers being family thing. She thought that it was just something that everyone said to make work appealing.

How wrong she was. They did become sort of family to her. Everyone watched the other's back and made sure nothing was ever wrong. She was going to miss that, but hoped that it would be the same thing with the bigger roster.

She got out of her truck and went into the house. Amanda was already asleep. Cali ran up to her.

"Come on, let's go out." They quickly went to the back door. Cassie opened it and Cali ran out. Cassie sat on the back porch.

She was happy that she had yesterday to figure everything out with Amanda. Cassie would send her money to be able to have a house to come home to and to take care of Cali. The blonde helped her back up most of her clothes and everything that the younger needed for the road. They then spent the rest of the day not doing anything in particular. Amanda was sad to see her go, but was really happy for her friend.

Tomorrow was the big day. Cassie hoped that she didn't make an idiot of herself.

Well there ya go. If anything is confusing let me know. I'll be happy to explain it now or in a later chapter. I'm hoping to have Chapter 4 up soon and also hoping that the dreaded Chapter 5 doesn't kill me like my other stories. o.O Oh an reviews are always nice :-D
