Here goes Chapter 2. I hope you guys like it. I promise it gets better, reviews and ideas are always welcomed.
When we walked to the back, Dean was the first one to speak, "I didn't think you were going to get that big of a pop."
"Well that's nice," I said.
"I'm just saying. I'm glad though, I like how you mesh with the group."
"What you guys think?" I asked Seth and Reigns.
"Dude, we're gonna crush this shit," Seth said while nudging my shoulder.
I looked up at Reigns who said, "I'm feeling it. I think this whole thing is going to pretty special."
We walked to the back to get our stuff and start heading over to the next city. Our second segment that we were suppose to do got pushed back to smackdown, which we taped tomorrow. While getting our rental car vouchers and hotel accommodations from the WWEs travel director, I noticed something.
"I'm sharing a room with Ambrose?" I said out loud to Derek, the traveling director. The guys turned around and looked at Derek and I. Before Derek could say anything, Paul Levesque, aka Triple H, interjected.
"Yes. Since Colby and Joe share a room, we decided to put you in with Ambrose. You're going to be going out there every night with The Shield, we want to make sure it's believable. We need the chemistry between the four of you to be on point. This is the first time we've had a female in a male staple that is not just going to be cheering at ringside but actually in there with them, taking big bumps and delivering big shots. There's no room for error here. That being said, if this is something you're really not comfortable with, then maybe we can make different accommodations. Or if later on you feel Ambrose is crossing a line and making you uncomfortable in your environment, report back to me and we'll get you switched out right away. Are we all clear?"
The guys and myself all nodded. We made our way to our car,put all our bags in the trunk, and got in starting our three-hour drive. I sat in the back with Seth while Reigns drove and Ambrose sat shotgun. Dean turned to me with a grin that made my breath get caught in my throat. "Don't worry sweetheart, I promise I won't do anything to you that you don't want me to."
I swallowed and tried to play it cool before answering, "That's comforting."
He turned around and I quickly put my ear phones in and blasted my iPod, avoiding anymore sexual innuendo comments by Dean. We arrived at the hotel almost at four in the morning. We got our things from the car and checked in, took the elevator to our floor and entered our rooms. There were two beds so at least I had that. Dean took it upon himself to claim the bed farthest from the door and set his things down. I then placed my things at the foot of my bed and grabbed some sweats and a plain black shirt. Before I entered the bathroom I turned to Dean and said, "Now, you've been warned. I may come out looking like a completely different person. And not in a good way."
I shut the door and heard Dean yell, "Unless you're coming out of there naked, it's not gonna phase me."
I smiled to myself thinking if that is what Triple H meant when he said if Ambrose crosses a line. I changed my clothes and put up my hair so that I could wash the make-up off my face. When I came out, Dean had no shirt on and was pulling on some black basketball shorts. I put the clothes that I was wearing away in one of my bags and climbed into bed. When I looked up, I saw Dean staring right back at me. Before I could say one of my many bitchy comebacks I have saved in my back pocket, Dean asked, "You don't wear that much make-up do you?"
"Why? Do you think I need more?" I asked him starting to feel self-conscious.
"No, that's good. It means you won't be in the bathroom for hours while I'm out here about to piss myself or something."
"And here I thought you were going to say something to make me feel better."
"Is that something you want me to do?" He asked, adding one of those grins that drove me crazy.
"Go to sleep Ambrose." I turned facing away from him and quickly drifted off to sleep.
I was woken up by someone knocking on the door. I looked over to Deans bed but he wasn't there. That's when I noticed the door to the bathroom was shut and the light was on. I got up and opened the door. Reigns and Seth were standing there dressed in what I was guessing was their workout gear.
"Where's Dean?" Asked Seth.
"In the bathroom," I told him.
"Tell him to hurry up, we'll meet you guys downstairs," said Reigns.
"For what?" I asked.
"Gym time baby!" Yelled Seth as they were walking away.
I closed the door and sat on my bed waiting for Dean to come out of the bathroom. WHen he did, he had a shirt on and his toothbrush in hand.
"Who was at the door?" He asked.
"Seth and Reigns. They said to hurry up, they're waiting downstairs for us to head over to a gym."
"Bathroom is all yours," he said.
I grabbed my toothbrush and quickly brushed my teeth. I then got my hairbrush and brushed it out and into a tight bun. I threw on my black Puma running shoes and grabbed my gym bag before following Ambrose out the door.
"What?" I asked since I caught him staring at me while we were waiting for the elevator.
He shook his head, "Nothing. I was just thinking that we're gonna have to bulk you up."
The elevator door dinged before opening and we both stepped in. I gave him a questioning look and he continued, "You're going to be in there with us, like Triple H said. If you have some more muscle to you then it's going to help with the image of you throwing guys around. I need to bulk up big time too so don't get defensive."
I nodded my head in agreement, "Yeah, that makes sense, but I don't want to come out looking like my tits are no longer tits but pecks."
"Trust me, I don't want your tits to disappear either." The elevator doors opened to a waiting Seth and Reigns.
We walked out the hotel parking structure where we piled into our car once again and head down to the gym. When we arrived, we each got a guest pass and grabbed a few water bottles. I noticed Dean had opted for coconut water instead. I guess he caught me looking because he said, "After a mean workout, if you drink a few bottles of water and then top it off with some coconut water, you feel almost completely refreshed. Plus, it tastes fucking delicious.
We started our stretching and I saw Ambrose step in front of me I straightened up and placed my hands on my hips. "Did you forget how to stretch?" I teased.
Him being who he is never missed a beat, "Yeah, can you help me out? My groin seems to be bothering me whenever I'm around you. It's the least you can do since evidently you're the source of my discomfort."
"I have a feeling you're used to taking care of that problem all by yourself." I retorted.
That got the guys to chuckle alittle bit. We all started on our individual workouts. About an hour into it, I decided that I would start on som weight training since Ambrose was right, I did need to bulk up some. I went up to Reigns and pulled him to the side.
"I wanted to ask for a favor, if you're too busy then it's totally fine I get it." I told him.
"Well what is it?" Asked Riegns.
"Ambrose mentioned to me on the way over here that it would be good for my character if I bulked up a bit and I agree. So I was wondering if you could help me out with some weight training. I've never really worried about that, I mostly just focused on toning and stamina."
"Yeah, no problem. You want me to help you out now?" He asked.
"Yeah, if you're sure it won't cut into your time." I said.
"Naw, it's cool. Come on."
I followed him to the weight area and began to started following his instructions. I glanced over to Dean who was saying something to Seth.
"Why is she working out Rome?" He asked out loud.
"Maybe cause she doesn't want to worry about being groped in the middle of her workout," said Seth.
"Come on, I wouldn't push it that far," he said.
"I know that but does she?" Commented Seth.
"We had a thing back in Germany once."
"You guys hooked up?" Asked Seth.
"No, we had a storyline kind of thing," said Dean.
"Did y'all hang out over there?"
"Naw, not really. She had this really tough mentor who she looked at as a father. He made it clear to everyone not to fuck around with her. Pluse she was seventeen I think. The whole jailbait thing doesn't do it for me."
"And now?" Asked Seth.
"She does it for me," said Dean.
Seth laughed, "I'm sure she does. Just try to keep in mind that all four of us have to work together for a long time the way things are working out. So please try your best to keep your dick away from her."
"I won't do anything she doesn't want me to do."
After the gym we headed back to the hotel to shower and get all our stuff ready to head over to the arena for Smackdowns taping. After that we were free for the night but had to catch a plane the following morning to California where we would have Wednesday off, followed by two house shows. One Thursday night and one Friday night. Leaving the weekend off and back to work for RAW on Monday.
When Dean and I got inside our room, I started getting what I needed for a shower. WHen I looked up at Dean, he was doing the same thing.
"So, do you wanna shower together to save some time or do you wanna go first?" Asked Dean.
"I'll go first if those are my option." I told him.
"And what if I would have only given you the option of showering together?" He asked.
"Then I guess that would have been my only option." i told him before shutting the bathroom door and locking it just to play it safe.
When I was done, i changed into some black skinny jeans and plain white v-neck shirt. I opened the door and told Ambrose the bathroom was his. He went in and shut the door, meanwhile I sat on my bed and did my makeup. When he came out, his hair was wet and stuck to his forehead which got in his eyes and he was dressed in jeans and a black t-shirt.
"You're looking very Moxley right now," I said.
He just gave me smile and asked if I was ready go. I told him yes since I was going to have the women that do hair make-up for the televised events do my hair for me. Ambrose and I got our bags with our wrestling gear in it and met up with the guys. We once again made our down to the car and drove to the arena. I told the guys once we arrived there that I was going to hair and make-up to have my hair done. Seth offered to take my bag with them to the locker room. I thanked them and headed off.
When I made it to the Hair and Make-up station, which was right by gorilla where all the superstars waited for their music and their cue to go through the curtain, I saw Alicia Fox talking to Janice who was head of creative for most of the divas matches.
"Speak of the devil. Lexi, I was just telling Alicia that she is going to be your WWE début match," said Janice.
I liked Alicia Fox, she was a good worker and really flexible. Plus she seemed really easy-going and laid back.
"I'll leave you girls to sort out the details with Lexi picking up the win." With that Janice was gone.
I sat in the chair as Martha, the hair stylist on-call blow dried, then straightened my hair.
"Are you nervous?" Asked Alicia.
"Not really. I've wrestled non-stop since I was 15. This has always been my main goal so I'm more content if anything," I told her.
"Damn, you don't mess around then," she said. "So, how do you want to do this? Do you want a straight up wrestling match or do you want to have some fun with it?" She asked me.
I was really glad to find out that she was getting to know my style of wrestling to see hoe she could work off it.
"I'd like a rough match. Since you're taller you could work in a head kick or two. I'd like it if at some point we can spill outside of the ring and you throw me into ring steps and I throw you into the barricade."
"I'll make you look good as long as you do the same for me," she said.
Martha had finished with my hair so I thanked her and hopped off the chair. Alicia and I said our goodbyes until we met for our match and told me that we should hang out when we're both free. I agreed, liking her style and personality.
I made it back to the locker room where I told the guys I had a match for tonight.
"Who is it against?" Asked Dean.
"Alicia Fox. I already talked about some of the thing we both want to do in the match. She seems chill," I said.
"Should we all walk her out?" Asked Reigns.
"I think it would be better if just one of you did. There's no interference so I just need a cheerleader."
"That's all you my friend," said Seth pointing to Dean.
"Looks like it's me and you sweetheart." He said before going to change into his ring gear.
Next chapter includes the match with Alicia Fox and a day off in California, possibly with Mr. Ambrose.
