Sorry it took so long, but this seems to be a long chapter. So Rollins is winning in the poll. Even I have been starting to lean towards him more. Which is weird. I will most likely have chapter 6 up today. Not making promises though. Thank You to all my reviewers. Sorry I can't remember all your names, but bcsutow...you know Triple H will always be my main squeeze :-D.
Cassie walked out of her hotel room bathroom, drying her hair with her towel. She threw the towel on her clothes bag and jumped into her bed. She pulled her shirt slightly, the steam from the bathroom making it stick to her skin.
Papers were all over the bed. She picked some up and started to read them. They were story lines that she was to look over. She really didn't understand why. Stephanie had told her that she wasn't touching any of the more important ones.
"What the hell is wrong with these people?" She said looking one over. "This is so unfair." It was for the Intercontinental Championship. Fandango, of all people, was going to be put into the already failing story line of Barrett vs. The Miz.
"One threesome I'm not excited for." Cassie placed the paper down on her bed, looking up at nothing. "Maybe not the right terminology to use."
She shook her head, getting images out of her mind. She quickly picked up another sheet of paper. It was on The Shield. She smiled happily as she read that they were going to be pretty much unstoppable. When the Wyatt family comes into the WWE light will be when they were going to have trouble.
Cassie like that. Government against Anti-government. Plus, she was excited to see some familiar faces amongst the roster.
She got down to the bottom of the page where it read: split? She leaned over to her bed side table and grabbed a pen. She then wrote next to split, No. The Shield hasn't been around long enough for a split that early. She then wrote underneath: More appearances? They really needed to make more of an appearance in promos and matches. Their air time wasn't enough to build their characters.
She continued writing notes along the sides of the papers. She was hoping that Stephanie would at least listen to the suggestions that she was making. It would really help in the long run.
While she was writing, she thought about her day. She had a lot of fun messing with the roster. It really did help her make it easier on her when it came to talking to some of the wrestlers. She didn't get a huge chance to talk with all of them. She only introduced herself to The Shield and a few others.
None of the women came over to her and introduced themselves. That didn't really surprise her at all. Saraya had said that most of them were stuck up and only put on a face. She could deal with that. She never really got along with other women.
She jumped slightly when there was a knock on her door. She looked up at her door. She then looked at her clock, seeing that it was almost 11 at night. She wasn't expecting anybody, especially this late at night. It wasn't like she made actual friends with anybody.
She got up, fixing some of the papers so they didn't fall. She rushed over to the door, and unlocked the chain. She opened the door, a bit surprised at who was standing on the other side.
Nikki and Brie Garcia (Nikki and Brie Bella).
"Uh hi?" She fixed her glasses, and brushed some hair behind her ear. Not the people she would have thought would be at her door.
"You wear glasses?" Brie asked demeaningly.
"Yeah. I wear contacts during the day and they bother me…"
"We don't care," Nikki interrupted her. "I don't remember asking about your eye problem."
"Uh ok," Cassie stood up looking at Brie, not getting a reaction from her. Cassie leaned on the door a bit more. "May I remind you that you showed up at my door. Maybe we shouldn't be rude to me?"
"And what are you going to do about it?" Nikki got in her face slightly. Cassie backed up, not liking the perfume that she was wearing.
"Well if you don't need anything," she went to slam the door closed. Brie stopped her.
"Don't mind my sister. She doesn't get along right away with new people," the younger twin shot her sister a look before turning back to Cassie. Nikki rolled her eyes.
"Clearly," Cassie looked between the two. "Don't mean to be rude, but I have work to do and I would really love to get it done."
"Right," Brie stepped forward. "What we came over here for is to tell you what we tell all new women who work with us."
"Ok?"
"Watch what you are doing around our men."
Cassie's eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"Your men?"
"John (John Cena) and Bryan (Daniel Bryan)!" Nikki yelled at her. "We saw the looks you were giving some of the guys and back off."
"You do realize it's my job to look at them and to talk to them right?"
"Don't make me say it again," Nikki growled.
Cassie's eyebrow raised. She couldn't believe this is what they interrupted her work for. She didn't even remember looking at Cena and Bryan at all earlier.
"Alright, well when you two get past your insecurities I'm sure we can pick this conversation up. Until then," Cassie went to go back in her room.
"Insecurities?" Brie stopped her again, pulling her out into the hallway. "What exactly do we have to be insecure about?"
"Well I'm not you so I really don't know but clearly there's something seeing that you interpret a look as me flirting."
"Excuse me?"
"Or maybe," she looked up in thought. "You," she pointed at Nikki. "Know that John cheated on his wife with you, so maybe it's you not trusting him," she smiled at the older woman.
"WHAT?!" Nikki yelled out stepping towards her.
"Woah!" Celeste (Kaitlyn) opened her door and stepped between the two. "She's not a wrestler. You hurt her, there is a lot more consequence than fighting another athlete."
The twins shot daggers at the two toned diva. Cassie looked between all three of them. She hoped that she didn't cause that much trouble, but she didn't like people treating her like shit beneath their shoes.
"Watch your back," Nikki said to her as her and her sister walked away.
"Like I'm scared," Cassie stuck her tongue out at their backs as they walked away.
"Wow you are making friends fast," Celeste laughed. Cassie looked up at her, shrugging her shoulders.
"Women just hate me for some odd reason. I'm cool with it."
"Same with me. Always been one of the guys."
"Rather go run in the mud then get a pedicure," the two laughed.
"I'm glad I caught you. Some of us are going to go to a bon fire…"
"At 11 at night?" Cassie questioned.
"Don't ask. It's like a release for us. Some of the guys wanted me to ask if you wanted to join. Have some drinks and you have a chance to meet more of the roster."
"I have a bunch of stuff to look over," Cassie pointed back at her room.
"Long ride ahead of us. You can do that later. Come on, everyone wants to meet you."
"Find that very hard to believe," Cassie chuckled. "But I guess work can wait. Can I change?"
"You look fine the way you are. Grab some shoes and let's go," she said excitedly. Cassie laughed.
"Alright. Thunder cat pajamas it is," she went back into her room and grabbed flip flops, her phone, a sweat shirt, and her key card. "Let's get this party started.
Celeste parked in the long driveway that was already packed with cars.
"Woah," Cassie looked at the house in front of her. "Is this somebody's house?"
"Yeah Cena's," Celeste turned the car off. Cassie's head shot around.
"Please tell me you're joking? I just called him out on cheating at his girlfriend."
"So? There are plenty of people back there that don't get along with him. He invites everybody."
"Yes, but has everybody called him out on cheating?"
"Well no…"
"Exactly!"
"Don't worry about it. We will just hang with the group that doesn't like him."
Cassie just stared at her.
"You want me to die today don't you?"
Celeste laughed.
"Come on. I promise everything will be fine," she got out of the car. Cassie didn't believe her, but what was she going to do? Walk back to the hotel. She sighed getting out of the car. She closed the door behind her and followed Celeste down a short path to a fence. Celeste unhooked it and allowed Cassie to enter first.
There was a huge fire towards the back of the yard near the woods, but far enough not to catch anything. There was a patio coming from the back of the house and a deck that Cena had an outdoor kitchen. He was up their cooking. On the patio, was a bar that some of the guys were sitting at. In random spots, wrestlers sat in their own clicks.
"What would you like to drink?" Celeste asked her. Cassie turned to her.
"Uh what do they have?"
"Everything."
"Guinness is fine."
"Alright. I'll be right back," she walked over towards the bar. Cassie stood there, crossing her arms over her stomach.
"Well this is awkward."
"And you talk to yourself."
Cassie turned to see Cody (Cody Rhodes) standing next to her.
"Well it's about time you came up to me," Cassie smiled at him.
"Yeah sorry. Very odd way to introduce yourself."
"Come on now Cody. Your dad warned you about my craziness didn't he?"
"That to him probably would be normal."
"Very true. By the way, nice mustache."
Cody smiled as he ran his fingers over it.
"It is isn't it?"
"And here is your Guinness," Celeste walked back up to them handing Cassie her bottle. She looked at Cody. "Cody."
"Celeste," he looked back down at Cassie. "I'll see you later alright?"
Cassie nodded as she took a sip of her drink. Cody walked off, meeting up with Ted (Dibiase). Cassie looked back at Celeste.
"What was that?"
"Women aren't the only ones that can be jerks in this business. Come on," she started walking. Cassie took another gulp from her beer, following the Diva.
"It's about time," April (AJ) jumped towards her friend. "What took you so long?"
"Had to stop a fight," Celeste pointed back at Cassie.
"It wasn't a fight. And they came to me. Blame them!"
"Blame who?" Phil had walked up to them, pepsi in hand.
"Our lovely Creative member decided to tell it how it is with the twins," Celeste sat down in a chair.
"Oh really? Do tell," Phil motioned to an empty seat. He sat down, Cassie sitting next to him.
"They showed up to my room and told me to stay away from their men because apparently I gave them a look."
"A look?"
"Yeah. To them it was flirting," she took another sip. She looked around trying to see if the girls or Cena were near her. When she saw them all on the deck she continued. "So I told them that they were insecure and I told Nikki that she obviously doesn't trust Cena because he cheated on his wife with her," she took another quick sip.
"And you came to his house?" Jon, who had been sitting there the whole time, asked. Cassie slowly nodded her head, bowing it in defeat. "And you all thought I was crazy."
"I dragged her here," Celeste defended her. "I didn't tell her where we were going."
"Did you give them looks?" April asked, sitting on the ground.
"Um no nor would I. Cena is too much of a goody goody and Bryan really looks like a goat."
They all laughed at the comment.
"Cut him some slack. He's in a competition," Phil said.
"Yeah well you can maintain a beard instead of looking like Grizzly Adams."
The small group talked some more about nothing in particular. They asked Cassie some questions about her schooling and how was it working for NXT. She explained most of everything, but she was happy that they didn't ask about family life yet. She didn't want to get into that.
Colby had grabbed some more beers and walked over to the group.
"Hey there's crazy," he handed Cassie another beer.
"Hey there's…" she looked up in thought. "Boring," she tried saying with conviction.
"Nice fail there," he sat down next to her. She shrugged her shoulders.
"Won't be the first time. Thanks," she held her beer up.
"How can you drink that stuff?" He took a sip from his own bottle.
"American beer gives me headaches. Guinness is the only beer I can have as many as I want and not be hurting in the morning."
"That's sad."
"I know. I normally don't drink beer. I'm a whiskey girl."
"Really?" He looked at her a bit surprised.
"Yes sir. Can't do that tonight though. To much to do in the morning," she took a chug from her beer.
"Well seeing that you're stuck with us, I guess we will have to go out another night when you aren't busy."
"If ya wanted a date, just had to ask," Cassie teased. He laughed shaking his head.
"Yeah, don't think I'll be doing that for awhile," he took another sip from his beer.
"I know it's none of my business and I'm really not a friend, but you seemed pretty mad this morning. Are you alright?"
He looked at her. He was surprised that she was concerned about him even after him being a jerk to her.
"I'll be fine eventually."
"Well if ya need anybody to vent to, I'll listen. Don't need to tell all your business, but sometimes a talk helps."
"I'll salute to that," he held up his bottle. Cassie did the same and they clinked them together.
"Excuse me," a finger tapped on Cassie's shoulder. She looked over her shoulder and up to see John Cena standing behind her.
"Ah crap."
"Crap is right," Nikki popped out from behind him. Both Cassie and Colby stood up. A few of the roster turned to the going ons. This is exactly what Cassie wanted to avoid.
"I would like to personally welcome you to the WWE Family and into my home," Cena started. "However what you said to my girlfriend was uncalled for." Nikki smirked.
"Well if the truth hurts that much, your girlfriend and her sister shouldn't have come to my room and interrupted me while I was working."
"No they shouldn't have," John looked at his girlfriend and then back at Cassie. "But my business is my business and I would rather keep it that way.
"Then maybe you should have kept it out of the news."
"Oh shit," Phil smiled, placing his hand over his mouth. This was getting good.
"Excuse me!?" Nikki yelled. "How dare you come here and be disrespectful!"
"Hey I'll leave, but don't get mad at me that I'm biting back. She," Cassie pointed at Nikki. "Came to me," she pointed at herself. "And accused me of something that isn't even true."
"Who even invited you here anyway?"
"I did," Colby stuck up for her. Cassie looked at him. He nodded his head. "I asked Celeste to bring her over. She's going to be on the road with us, so best get used to her."
"I second," Phil raised his hand. Cassie turned to face him. He gave her a thumbs up.
"Yeah throw me into that group," Jon raised his hand. "Hope you don't have a problem with her Johnny boy," he said in his Dean Ambrose tone.
"I don't want a problem. Just, I have to ask you to leave," John moved out of her way.
"Fine," she sighed. She placed her beer in her old seat. "It's been fun," she waved at the group she was with.
"Hey," Nikki called out to her. Cassie turned only to be met with water in her face. Cassie jumped back gasping.
"Are you serious!" Celeste ran up to her. "What the fuck Nikki!?" The blonde turned to the brunette.
"That's what she deserves for thinking she could talk to my sister and I like she did. She's new here. She needs to learn respect."
"I think you are far from ever teaching anybody about respect," Phil stepped in. "That was low, even for you."
"Phil," John growled. Cassie slightly pushed Celeste away.
"Fucking mature. I can see who are the real class acts. Fuck you and your damn respect," she then walked out of the yard.
"I'll drive her back," Colby said walking away.
"What?" Bryan (Daniel Bryan) said. "You just got here."
"And now I'm leaving. The party was a buzz kill anyways." He rushed out of the backyard to catch up to Cassie.
"May I make a suggestion," Phil started up again. "Don't piss off the person who will be writing your future story lines."
Cassie walked passed the cars, trying to wipe her glasses off.
"Stupid bitch," she wiped the water off her face.
"Hey," Colby called after her. She turned almost bumping into him.
"Sorry…"
"Don't apologize. Should have made a noise. You alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine. Really happy that it was just water. Do you mind?" She held her glasses out.
"Not at all," he grabbed them and softly wiped them on his shirt. He handed them back to her. She put them on loving that she could see. "Nice nerd glasses."
"Shut up," she crossed her arms over her chest.
"Don't worry about them. They are always like this."
"No you mean Super Cena is actually a jerk? Oh no the world is coming to an end," she teased.
"No need to be sarcastic. Come on. I'll drive you back to the hotel," he turned and started to head towards his car. Cassie followed.
"First a date and now all alone in a car. Didn't think I could get that reaction after the first day," she teased him again.
"Shut up," he smiled back at her.
Ok so there it is. So looking back at the old chapters, I've noticed that where I put space for a break, it was taken out so everything runs into each other. I will be going back to fix that eventually, but will be putting symbols in there to show the break. And sorry for any bella/cena fans. Main character needs enemies right? and of course, I'm not on the Cena Lame Train. Sorry. Thanks for the reviews and keep them coming XD
