Here you go people, enjoy :)
It took us three and a half hours to get to our next destination which was Memphis, Tennessee. By the time we all checked into our hotel and got into our rooms it was close to three in the morning. As usual, Ambrose and I were sharing a room. Once we got settled, we quickly went to bed without saying much.
A few hours later, I was woken up by mumbling. I turned to look over at Jons bed but he wasn't there. I then saw the bathroom light on with the door shut and figured he was in there. One thing about Jons voice in the morning, even if he whispers, it sounds as if he is speaking in a normal volume. I decided to be nosy and slowly got out of bed trying to make as little noise as possible. When I got close enough to the door, I placed my ear against it and listened in.
"Yeah, it's been a long time, I'm only in town for tonight. I have a flight to catch tomorrow morning," said Jon.
Then there was some silence before he spoke again. "I wanted to know if you would be down to hang out later tonight." More silence.
"Exactly, just like old times baby."
That last thing he said made me look at the door with my wide eyes. Did he just say baby?
"It would be around eleven tonight. Are you sure that's ok with you? Ok, cool. Text me your new address and I'll make sure to take really good care of you tonight."
I felt a pain in my chest, was he going to meet up with an old ring rat? At that though, I felt myself begin to get really pissed off. He's here trying to do whatever it is he's doing to me and then he goes and makes a booty call for tonight after smackdown. Asshole.
In that moment my only thought was to get back at him. I have no idea why I felt that way, it's notlike he and I were anything special. Just coworkers who flirted with eachother really, but I was determined to not be made out to look like the fool. As I went to dig up my Flyers sweatshirt and dig into the pocket for Davids number, my mind was screaming at me to stop but I didn't listen. Once I found it I got my cell that as charging and quickly saved the number before I texted him. 'Hey its Alexis, just wanted you to have this number.'
After I sent it, reality sunk in. "Shit," I said out loud.
"What happened?" Asked Jon. I didn't hear him get out of the bathroom.
I quickly locked my phone before answering him. "Nothing."
"So you just decided to randomly curse for no reason?"
"Well I woke up sharing a room with you so I think that's a good enough reason." I snapped.
"Are you trying to be cute or are you really just being a bitch?"
"I don't have to try to be cute," I told him as I grabbed my toothbrush and gym clothes. I went into the bathroom to change and soon heard a knock at the door.
"You guys ready?" It was Joe.
"I am but miss prissy is changing," said Jon.
"Seth is bringing the car to the front. What happened? Did you make a move on her already?" Asked Joe.
"No she just woke up and decided she was going to be a bitch today I guess."
I had heard enough. After I brushed my teeth I quickly changed and opened the bathroom door. "You guys can go without me. I'm gonna workout by myself today," I told them.
"Fine with me, let's go big man," said Jon while grabbing his gym bag and heading out the door.
"Are you sure? Did he do anything to make you feel uncomfortable?" Joe asked.
I softened up alittle bit. Joe was turning out to be a pretty sweet guy and he has helped me alot with my weight lifting. "No, nothing like that. Just getting alittle tired of his games."
"Ok, but if he does do anything let me know. I'll kick his ass for you," he said giving me a small smile.
"Thanks, but if he did do anything like that you would probably have to hold me back."
"I can see that. Well, I guess we'll see you later then. Becareful."
"I will," I said I as closed the door. I decided it would be a good time to call Sara.
"Paradise," she said as she answered my call.
"What?" I asked her not knowing what she was talking about.
"What better place to move to then Paradise?"
"And where is exactly is this Paradise located?" I asked.
"Las Vegas, Nevada baby."
My stomach dropped. "I can't do Vegas," I told her.
"Why not? and it's a city inside Las Vegas. I sent you the link to this condo complex I found while searching online. They accept cats and dogs, have their laundry unit,
two sparkling swimming pools, reserved covered parking, two spas, a fitness center and indoor racquetball courts. Plus, each condo has their own patios with storage, 9-foot ceilings, and walk-in-closets. You'll this last one, it's conveniently located near McCarran International Airport, which means you won't have to worry about driving far to catch a flight or to get home from the road."
"How much a month though?"
"$900.00 a month. Split between the both of us that's just $450.00."
"Wow, that actually sounds pretty good." I admitted.
"Yup and wait until you see the photos of the two bedroom condos I emailed you, they're awesome."
"There's just one problem, and is the reason I called you."
"O Lord, what happened?"
"Ambrose."
"Ambrose? O, the blue-eyed white boy. Why is he a problem?"
"Well, it's hard to explain but me and him have been very flirty with eachother. I even called him the night we went out in Philly and some things were said."
"What kind of things?"
"I asked if he actually liked me or if he just wanted to see if I was a good fuck. His answer was to ask him when I'm dead sober, so when I landed he picked me up from the airport and I teased him alittle bit before asking him."
"Keep it going," said Sara.
"He told me to ask him when he wasn't horny and when I am sober."
"Ok, so far I don't see him being a problem with us moving."
"He lives in Vegas."
"That can be alittle weird I guess."
"I heard him talking to some bitch on the phone. He made a booty call kind of thing for tonight after the show."
"And that pissed you off so you went off on him which means you might actually like him and that's why he's a problem with us moving," concluded Sara.
"And that is why you are my best friend."
"Can I tell you what I think?"
"Yes," I said knowing that she would tell me the truth.
"He's single and so are you. Yeah you guys have flirted but he still has his needs. He's not cheating on you at all since you guys are just wrestling partners, let alone even friends. Nothing has happened between the two of you so he probably just wanted to fuck tonight and that's that."
"You're completely right. It's just, when I heard him this morning, I just wanted to cry and kick him the balls until he pissed blood."
"Well that's graphic. Listen Lex, if you want something to happen then make a move. Why should you have to wait for him? And about us moving, if you really like it after you see the email, you don't have to tell him where we're moving."
"Yeah, ok. I'll look at the email after I hit the gym," I told her picking up my gym bag, throwing my wallet into it.
"Gym, that's a good idea. Get your anger and sexual frustrations out."
"And on that note, goodbye."
I knew that the guys were most likely working out at the nearest crossfit since Seth has really turned them onto that, so I knew I was safe going to the nearest 24hourfitness. I took a cab since the guys had taken the rental car. Once I arrived at the gym, I did my usual stretching and warm ups. I moved on to a half hour of running on the treadmill and then a half hour of leg lifts. After that I did some squats for fifteen minutes and then sit-ups for another fifteen minutes. I did pull ups for ten minutes and lifted weights for 20 minutes.
After two hours in the gym, I decided to call it quits for the day. I went to my gym bag where I pulled out a towel and a bottle of water. I downed the water and wiped the seat off my body. I then pulled out my phone, with six text messages. I went through the list and saw that the first five were from David. I knew I had really messed up by texting him but Jon thing had me going crazy for a second. The last text was from none other then Jon himself. I erased the ones from David without even reading it and blocked his number. I then read the text from Jon. 'Are you still at the gym?'
'Just finished up and heading back to the hotel,' I texted back.
'Is normal Lexi coming back or is the same one from this morning coming back so I can prepare myself.'
I rolled my eyes. 'You're a dork.'
'Fine, I'll just brace myself for impact.'
I caught a cab back to the hotel and quickly made it to my room for a must needed shower.
When I entered the room, I put my gym bag down and was going to get clothes and my things that I need to take a shower when I noticed that Jon was in the bathroom. So I sat on my bed instead and went to check the email that Sara had sent me about the condos in Vegas. They were beautiful and the condo complex itself was amazing. The added perk was that it had its own gym and was just a few minutes away from the airport. I decided to forget about Ambrose and simply not tell him where I was moving to. I pulled out my phone and texted Sara that I was in and to meet in Vegas the next day to make it final since I had the next two days off.
My eyes then drifted off to the table that was in the opposite corner of the room. I saw a pack of Pearl Tampons and a snikers chocolate bar with a bottle of Mydol extra strength. Was he serious? When Jon walked out of the bathroom I was holding up the box of tampons in one hand and bottle of Mydol in the other. I turned around to look at him.
"What the hell is all of this?" I asked him.
"Um, well, I told the guys how you woke up in a bitchy mood and they have girlfriends so they said you were probably on your period," he said while avoiding eye contact with me.
"So, you got me all of this?" I asked putting down the tampon and Mydol.
"Yeah, that's the things you use right? The woman at Wal-Mart said that most girls use those."
"That's, um, really sweet Jon," I said while smiling. He had actually went to the store to buy these things for me. I was completely shocked.
"I'm not a complete asshole Lex," he said while sitting on the edge of his bed.
I walked over and stood in-between his legs. I brought my hands to his face and made him look at me. I ran my thump across his lips and felt him bring his hands and place them on my hips.
"You know, this would have been the perfect time to kiss you, if I was infact on my period. Which I'm not," I said while moving away from him and getting my things for the shower. Before I shut the door I looked back at Jon who was had his smirk on his face but was looking down.
After my shower, I did my usual makeup and hair. They guys and I then got all of our stuff we would need for smakdowns taping and headed to the arena. When we arrived we were giving our script or blueprint for what they wanted us to do. Randy was going to open the show by calling us out, saying that he knew The Shield couldn't beat him in a fair fight and then we would interrupt him saying that the record will show that I beat him. We would then go down to the ring and surround him, at that time Team Hell No will come out to even the odds and it will turn into a six man tag team match with The Shield picking up the victory with alittle help from me.
We went to go get ready for the show, putting on our ring gear and then heading over to catering since none of us had eaten anything all day. While I was serving myself some grilled chicken and a salad, I heard someone call my name and when I turned it was Alicia Fox.
"Hey, Alexis, come sit over here when you're done," she said.
I looked over to the guys who gave me a nod and took a seat at a different table. When I finished serving myself, I went and sat across from Alicia.
"Hey you looked really good in the ring lastnight," she said while taking a bite of her sandwich.
"Thanks, it felt so good to be in there. Orton is very easy to work with which surprised me. I felt safe going back and forth with," I told her while taking a few bites of my own food.
"Well, I wouldn't know but it did look good. Are you doing anything after the show?" She asked.
My mind automatically went to the conversation I heard Ambrose having. "Nope, why?"
"I wanted to see if you would want to come with Layla and I for a few drinks."
"Um, yeah, ok. That sounds cool." We both pulled out our cells and exchanged numbers.
"Great, just text me when you're done getting ready and stuff and we'll meet in the hotel lobby," said Alicia.
"Ok," I said. I was about to get up t get something to drink when Jon came over and placed a water bottle infront of me before giving Alicia a small smile and walking away. I opened the bottle and while taking a sip, I felt Alicia's eyes on me. "What?" I asked.
"Are you and Dean a thing or something?" She asked.
"That's kind of a personal question don't you think?" I said while giving her a wink and finishing my plate.
Soon after that, they guys and I were being escorted to where we were going to make our entrance. The show started with Randy's theme song. He made his way down the ramp and into the ring, he grabbed a mic and started it off.
"Last Monday night all The Shield proved to me and everyone else is that they can't beat me in a fair fight. I'm not even sure they know what a fair fight is to begin with. They want to come out here and say that they are the future of this business. I find that hard to believe because I'm not going anywhere, and to be the future of this business they have to get rid of me first. You see guys, and Alexis, I am a future legend. You are just puppies."
Our song hit and the three of us made our way out and through the crowd. Once we got to the barricade, Dean jumped over and helped me over like he usually did. I walked over to get a mic and the guys circled the ring.
"Some legend you are Randy. You couldn't even handle little ol' me on RAW. Whether you see it as a fair fight or not doesn't matter, the record will show that I beat you, end of story my friend. I would be careful about what I say if I were you because these so called puppies have their eyes set on a little pussycat."
The crowd cheered and as the guys were making their way onto the ring apron, fire soared from the ramp and the corners of the ring. Kane and Daniel Bryan ran down the ramp and into the ring, standing side by side with Orton. The Shield retreated back into the crowd. We made our way back towards the locker rooms and the screen showed that for the main event it would be The Shield vs. Team Hell No and Randy Orton.
Soon, we made our entrance once again and the guys waited in the ring while Orton came out followed by Kane and Daniel. The match started out with Seth and Bryan. The ref cued the bell and Seth pushed Daniel into the corner where he threw a few right hands at Daniel before he blocked one and threw Seth into the corner. Daniel layed in some kicks to Seth's legs. Seth then crawled to the our corner and tagged Dean in. Daniel automatically went in to kicking the legs of Ambrose. Then he sent Ambrose into the ropes, when he came back Dean clotheslined Daniel and started stomping on his stomach. The crowd started to cheer for Bryan which gave him some momentum and was able to grab Deans leg and bring him down to the ground where he tried to put Dean into his yes lock move.
Dean was able to quickly grab onto the bottom rope to break the move. Daniel then got up and dragged Dean to his corner where he tagged in Kane. Dean got up and got in Kane's face, pushing him away from him. Kane then slapped Dean across the face and started laying in some right hand punches to Deans gut. As Dean clung to his stomach, Kane swung him into the ropes, Dean clung to the ropes and got out of the ring. Kane followed him but Dean was able to sweep Kane's legs which dropped him to the floor. Ambrose then got Kane up and swung him into the steel steps. Ambrose then made his way back into the ring and tagged in Reigns. Reigns waited for Kane to make it back in the ring. Once Kane was in, Reigns speared him and quickly covered him. The ref counted to two before Randy broke the count. That's when Seth and Dean entered the ring and pounced on Orton. Daniel Bryan came in and took Dean off of Orton. Daniel was able to throw Dean over the top rope and Orton rkod Seth who rolled out of the ring. I climbed to the tope rope but was soon met my Kane who put his hand around my throat and brought down, going for a choke slam. Reigns then speared him while I got our of the ring and he cover him, getting us the win.
I made my way over to Dean and Seth. Once Roman was with us we all jumped over the barricade and celebrated our win, closing the show.
