I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Next Night at Raw- Carol's Point of View-
John and I rode together to the arena, I haven't seen Jeff, Beth or Matt yet today. John had his arm wrapped me as we headed towards the building.
"You'll be great tonight, I'll be cheering you on from the back." John said as he opened the door.
"Thanks, don't keep your fingers crossed, I consider it as bad luck."
"How is that bad luck?"
"I just consider it as bad luck." I said as we walked into the arena and I was tackled to the ground, John jumped out of the way from being tackled as well. "OW! What the fuck man!" I said looking at who has tackled me and it was Jeff and Beth was walking up laughing behind him.
"I missed you so much I had to tackle you for a hug." Jeff said smiling.
"You could of given me a warning like, 'Bitch, we falling.'" I said as he rolled off me onto his knees.
"That would of ruined the surprise of me tackling you." Jeff said as John helped me up to my feet and Jeff got to his own feet.
"Now, you can give me a hug." I said opening my arms to give him a hug, and he took that opportunity to give me a big bear hug. "Jeez, I didn't see you for a day and I get a big hug like that." I said as he let go of me.
"I missed the razzing between me and you." Jeff said.
"I've missed it too." Beth said, I turned to her pulling her into a big hug.
"Where's Matt?" I asked as John wrapped his arm around me and I scooted closer to him moving the bag that held my ball gown to my other shoulder, I don't know where our relationship stands right now, but I think we have a better understanding of each other.
"He's in the locker room getting ready for his match." Jeff said as Mickie opened the door with a few other diva's behind her.
"Let's move out of the way from the door frame." John said, we moved to the side of the doorway, we chatted.
"Do you have the results?" I asked.
"I might, it's on my cards and they are in my pocket." Jeff said smirking and in a taunting manner.
"OOOHHH! Tell me!" I said excitedly.
"No, not until you get to the ring." Jeff said taunting me and shook his head a little when he taunted.
"I hate you!"
"You do not!"
"Do too, tell him Beth!" I said.
"I'm not involved in this!" Beth said, John was giggling.
"I can guarantee you that it isn't you." Jeff said.
"Damn, I hoped it was me." I said snapping my fingers and John tightened his grip on my side.
"Will you excuse us?" John asked.
"Sure, if we hear any weird noises or your not done in a half hour, we will send Matt to find you." Beth said.
"Why Matt?" I asked.
"Because we can!" Jeff said evilly smiling.
"Your evil." I said, John and I went and found a dark hallway and we cuddled at the end of the hallway, I put my bag on my lap.
"So, since you didn't lose this round, that means you can travel with me more." John said.
"That I could." I said smiling.
"For someone that hates flying sure is smiling about traveling with me."
"I'm not smiling." I said trying to fight off the smile.
"There is SO a smile on your face, it's right there…." John said pointing and trying to poke my cheek, but I kept moving so he couldn't poke me. I turned my face to look down the hall from where we came from so he couldn't see me smile, I felt his arm reach around me grasping my chin and turning my face to look at him and when my face turned all the way around to look deep into his blue eyes, his lips pressed against mine. When his lips left mine, I didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry." John said.
"Don't be, I liked it." I said scooting closer to his embrace, his arm wrapped around me resting it just above my hip, I looked down the hall and saw Matt standing there staring at us. He shook his head slightly before he walked in the direction he was faced. "Excuse me for a moment John." I said standing up, I put the bag on my shoulder, I didn't want to impose on John having him watching it and ran down the hall trying to catch Matt.
Matt's Point of View-
I walked out of the locker room to see what my brother and Beth were doing, along with seeing Lindsey and if Carol has shown up yet. I found Beth and Jeff first, how can you not see my brother with his different colored hair?
"Hey guys, have you seen Carol or Lindsey?" I asked.
"Lindsey, haven't seen, Carol is in that hallway with John." Beth said pointing at a hallway not that far away.
"John?" I asked.
"Yes, John." Beth said.
"Okay, thanks." I said, I just want to say hi and make sure she is fine, I mean I doubt anything happened overnight. I walked to that hall, I looked down the hall to see John and Carol kissing, I don't know why but it bugged me a little and I couldn't tell you why.
"I'm sorry." John said, 'I'm sorry.' I mocked in my head, why am I still standing here? I don't want to interrupt anything.
"Don't be, I liked it." Carol said, 'Don't be, I liked it.' I mocked again, wait she liked it? I saw Carol turn and saw me, I shook my head slightly trying to get the thoughts out of my head, I walked past the hallway towards the Diva's locker room to find Lindsey. "MATT!" She yelled as I could hear her running after me, I turned around to see her running up to me.
"Yes?" I asked.
"What's up?" She asked.
"I was just coming to say hey and make sure your in one piece."
"Oh, well, hey then." She said confused, and she wrapped her arms around me in a hug manner.
"I get a hug?" I asked confused.
"Yeah, you get a hug. Good luck on your match tonight."
"Thanks, good luck at your Diva search tonight."
"Thanks." She said smirking.
"Well, I got to go find Lindsey, we hanging out later?"
"Maybe, I don't know the others plans or what not, we'll plan something later." Carol said.
"We'll figure it out later." I said as I slowly turned around and went on my way to find Lindsey, when I found Lindsey I gave her a big kiss trying to get the thoughts and images of Carol and John out my head.
Carol's Point of View-
I walked back to the hall, and John was standing at the end of it looking about for me.
"Where'd you go?" John asked.
"I had to talk to Matt, I need to go get changed for the Diva search" I said.
"What's tonight?"
"Tonight like any other night that they are going to eliminate people is ball gowns." I said.
"Do you need help?" John asked.
"Yeah, but not from you, I'm going to snag Beth and make her help me."
"Your real nice."
"Well, you know." I said shrugging my shoulders.
"I got to go get ready for my match as well, catch you after the show?"
"Yep." I said pecking him on the lips this time, I went and found Beth and Jeff. "I'm snatching Beth from you Jeff." I said grasping Beth's arm and pulled her towards me.
"Do I have a say in this?" Beth asked.
"No." I said.
"I need her though." Jeff said.
"For what?" I asked.
"A lot of things."
"Do you need her now?"
"No."
"Hello!" Beth said.
"I need your help for my ball gown." I said.
"Okay, see you later Jeff." Beth said.
"Your ditching me for her." Jeff said.
"She loves me more." I said sticking my tongue out at him.
"Why can't I come and help?" Jeff asked.
"You'll make me look goofy." I said.
"Will not, I'll just add a little spice to your style." Jeff said.
"I am not letting you touch my hair or clothes." I said.
"Come on Carol, we don't have time to argue." Beth said as we went into an empty locker room, and I set my bag down on the bench. "Wouldn't your dress be all winkled being in that bag?" Beth asked.
"Probably." I said as I pulled out the gown.
"That is beautiful!" Beth said as I held it up.
"Wait until it's on me then I will look like a giant whale." I said as I slipped my shoes off and Beth held onto the dress as I got down to my bra and shorts, I always wear shorts underneath my dresses, I don't know why, but I do.
"Your going to wear shorts under your dress?" Beth asked.
"I always do, I've been told it's weird, but I feel more comfortable." I said as she handed me the dress and I stepped into it pulling it, "Could you tie and zip me up?" I asked turning around, she tied the two strings and she zipped up the back of our dress.
"You DO NOT look like a whale in this dress, your cute like always." Beth said walking around to look at me.
"Don't say that." I said as I sat down to strap on the heels I had, I hate wearing heels but it's something I have to do.
"So, what's up with you and John?" Beth asked as I leant forward buckling the first heel.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"He's been like attached to you at the waist."
"I think that our relationship has been taken to another level."
"What level are we at now?" Beth asked.
"We had our first kiss tonight."
"Aw….I want to do your hair, I have a cute hair style to do to your hair."
"Like what?"
"I was going to do a French braid, nothing special." Beth said as I sat there and she ran her hands through my hair before she started braiding it.
"Has Matt been acting different in your opinion?"
"Not really, the only thing different is he is hanging out with Lindsey more."
"Oh…"
"Why?"
"No reason." I said, she put my hair into a French braid, "Do I look stupid with a French braid and this dress?" I asked looking in the mirror.
"No, it looks good."
"What should I do for make-up?" I asked.
"I would go with light colors since your dress is black, you don't want dark colors overpowering." Beth said, we did pink eye shadow and lip gloss.
"How do I look?"
"Good." Beth said, I hid my bag in the room so no one would find it if they do use the room.
"Walk with me to gorilla position." I said.
"Why?"
"I can't walk in heels very well and need your help." I said as I grabbed onto her arm for dear life.
"Have you ever walked in heels?"
"When I was younger and wanted to be cool, but even then I hung onto my ex-boyfriend the whole time."
"What are you going to do when you walk out to the ring?"
"If I feel like falling, I'll aim to take Lindsey down with me." I said, we both giggled, we walked around a corner to get to the gorilla position, Jeff was standing there talking to John.
"Whoa!" John said, Jeff turned around and had the same reaction.
"Put your eyes back in your sockets." I said as I went and hung onto John for balance.
"You look beautiful." John said.
"Thanks." I said blushing a little.
"You really are." Jeff said.
"Do you believe me now?" Beth asked.
"No, I never believe you or that thing you call a husband." I said glancing over at Jeff.
"Thing? Your lucky your dressed up, if you were in jeans and a shirt we would be wrestling right now." Jeff said.
"OOHH!" I said shaking my hands pretending to be scared.
"Jeff, your up." One of the crew members said with the headset said.
"Yeah Jeff, your up." I said sarcastically.
"Your up soon too." Jeff said running to the edge of the curtain waiting for his music to start. Matt and Lindsey came around the corner, I saw how beautiful Lindsey was. Matt's mouth dropped open slightly then he closed it quickly.
