Tonight was Zack and I's first night working together as team. I met him back stage to shoot a promo interview with Josh Matthews.

"I'm here talking with Long Island Iced Z Zack Ryder and his new manager, his wife Kelsey. You have lost your last couple of matches Zack, what do you need to do to pull out a win tonight against Jack Swagger."

"Well, I'm really going to bring my a-game tonight to turn this around and-"

"What really is going to help him tonight is that I have been ordered to be on his side." I smiled. Zack shot me a dirty look.

"It will be nice to not have to worry about the old ball and chain attacking me for once." I tightened my jaw. He did not just say that!

"Or you can not choke like usual!"

The rest of our interview went like that, being asked questions and us arguing.

"Aaaand Cut. That's a wrap guys. Nice job."

Zack and I began to walk towards the lock rooms to get ready for our match.

"Isn't it weird that we are married people who get paid to fight with one another?"

"Yeah, It's about time I got paid to deal with you!" He laughed.

"Likewise Kels."

"Hey! It's not MY fault I'm great at arguing!"

"You are not great at arguing, you are just stubborn and refuse to meet anybody half

way."

"Hence, winning, and therefore I am good at arguing."

"You are impossible."

"Yep!"

"You haven't changed a bit." We parted ways to get ready and met behind the curtain.

When Zack's music hit he walked out in his typical fashion. I tried my hardest to look as disinterested as possible, crossing my arms, rolling my eyes at his gestures. When I walked up the stairs, Zach held the second rope down and as I was about to enter the ring, let it go. I shot him a death stare. And flipped him off. The crowd was eating our couples spat up.

Most of the match was uneventful. The ending however was a completely different story. Both men turned to face each other swinging. They collided and they were both lying on the mat seething with pain. I reached into the ring, tripping the ref. I quickly slipped brass knuckles onto Zack's hand. He didn't notice that it was on. When they got to their feet again, as did the ref. Zack threw a punch, he looked at his hand and noticed the brass knuckles. Before he could get rid of them, Zack was disqualified. I began to laugh as Jack Swagger's music played. Zack slammed his hands onto the mat furiously. He left the ring and picked up the steel stairs, throwing them. He came over to me and we began to bicker angrily. He turned around and stomped his way up the ramp.

Once I went behind the curtain, I rushed back to the locker room. Tonight was the night that Dolph and I are supposed to meet up with Dolph's parents after the show. I dug through my bag looking for something to wear. I finally set on a dark pair of skinny jeans, cami and a black vest. I was fixing my hair and Make-up when I heard my phone buzz. It was a text from Dolph.

"Just got back from my match. Come to my locker room when you are ready."

"ok. See you in 5." I picked up my things and headed over to Dolph's room.

"Hey."

"Finally!" He whined.

"I rushed over here, sir." I set down my bags in the corner.

"Well the show is almost done and my parents will be coming backstage soon after."

"It's going to be fine Dolph."

"I know, It's just weird lying to parents."

"You should have just told the truth!"

"I know, but if you don't mind can you not mention you are married?" He laughed.

"Obviously! Nothing says keeper like being married!" I laughed. Finally Dolph calmed down.

10 minutes later his parents made their way to his dressing room.

"Mom, Dad, this is Kelsey."

"Nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Ziggler."

"Oh please, call us Mom and Dad." His father shook my hand and his mother pulled me into a hug. I looked over at Dolph who was laughing at my obvious awkwardness.

"So, how about we give you a quick tour and then we can drop our stuff at the hotel." Dolph offered.

"We really just came to see the show and you, the tour sounds a little unnecessary son. And about the hotel…your mother and I think you two should just come stay at the house tonight," his father suggested. Dolph and I immediately looked at each other. Shit.

"Wouldn't that be nice, Dolph? To be in your old room again? We don't get to see you that often so this would give us more time together. You two must be so sick of hotels," His mother said determined.

"Yeah, thanks guys. We would love to, right honey?" Dolph said with forced enthusiasm.

"Yes, it would be great to see where Dolph grew up!" I said with equal enthusiasm.

We grabbed our bags and headed towards Dolph's rental car. His parents rode in their own car and we followed closely behind.

"What have you gotten me into Ziggler!"

"I'm so sorry, they never try to get me to stay with them when I'm here alone."

"So basically this is a ploy to get to know me?"

"Yeah, Mom really wants me to settle down, get married, give her grand kids, etc. She likes to meddle and put her two cents in. She never likes my girlfriends, she says they 'weren't right for me' " He rolled his eyes.

"Well she will love me and hopefully she will get off of your back about it. I'm telling you right now that I am not willing to get married to you and produce children to keep this up." He laughed.

"I am so lucky to have you, Kelsey." He looked over at me and smiled.

"I am glad you are finally realizing it!" I said returning the smile. We rode silently for a several minutes.

"We have reached our destination." He said as we pulled up at a big, beautiful, yellow and brick house. We parked in the drive way and carried our bags through the door and into the foyer.

"Welcome to our humble abode! Don't be afraid to make yourself at home" His father said with a smirk.

"Obviously you guys will be staying in upstairs in Dolph's room. I made the bed up fresh for the two of you. So you guys should be all set" Mrs. Ziggler said enthusiastically.

"You don't have to let us share a room, Mom."

"Oh honey, You are adults, I'm not oblivious to the fact you guys share a bed. In fact, I insist you guys stay in the same room."

"Oh, okay Mom, thanks."

"Well, it's getting late so I'm sure you kids want to settle in a little. I will just say good night now" Mrs. Ziggler said sleepily as she gave us each a kiss on the cheek.

"Good night, Mom."

"Good night -er I mean Mom."

"Come on, Babe, I will show you our room." I laughed as I followed him up the stairs.

We set our stuff down and began to get ready for bed. We instinctively turned away from each other to change into our pajamas. I turned to see Dolph only wearing red pajama pants. I couldn't help but admire his muscular physique. I definitely wasn't able to conceal a grin.

"Nice pajamas!" he said with a wink. In the spirit of acting like a couple. I decided to wear the merch shirt he gave me and black pajama shorts.

"Oh thank you." I said striking a pose. "Where's the bathroom?" I asked holding my tooth brush.

"Second door on the left." When I returned, he had already climbed into one side of the bed and began watching TV.

"Room for one more?" I winked jokingly. He laughed.

"For you? Always," He said patting the empty side of the bed.

"Damn right!" I said as I ran and jumped onto the bed. I slid under the covers. My foot grazed his leg.

"God damn, your feet are like iceburgs!" He yelled as he jolted his legs away from me.

"They are just a little chilly!" I protested.

" Um no! They are frozen! Put on socks woman!"

"But then my feet will get hot when I sleep!" I said stubbornly.

"I seriously doubt those feet will ever get hot." I scoffed.

"How dare you! My feet are plenty capable of being warm."

"Well, fine. I will take your word for it. Just don't touch me with those things!" he said laughing.

"Fine!" He turned his attention back to the TV. I waited a few minutes before I slowly began to inch my feet towards his. He was so focused on the tv that he didn't see it coming. My feet made contact with his. He immediately jumped out of bed.

"Damn it Blondie!" I burst into a fit of giggles.

"Yeah, keep laughing. I'm going to get you!" I jumped out of covers and made a kung fu pose. He leapt across the room in my direction. I dodged and jumped on and over the bed. He chased me around for a few minutes. Finally, he caught me. I felt his arms surround my waist. He picked me up and threw me on the bed. He stood over me and immediately began tickling my sides. I rolled around trying to escape while laughing uncontrollably. I somehow managed to muster up the strength to turn the tables and tickled him back.

"That's it!" He said firmly and smirking. He pinned me down, essentially straddling me. I tried to squirm away from him but was unable to. He grabbed my wrists and moved them above my head on the pillow. "Do you give up?" He asked playfully.

"Give up? Never!"

"Last chance…."

"Not giving up!" He managed to get his big strong left hand around both of my small wrists. This left his right hand free to barrage me with another round of tickles. I erupted with giggles. I was essentially defenseless. After several minutes I couldn't take anymore.

"Okay! Okay! Stop!"

"Say you give up!"

"I give up, I give up!" His face filled with a huge grin. The tickling ceased. We both tried to catch our breath. His face was only a few inches from mine. We stayed there for a minute, me still pinned underneath him while looking into each others eyes. An intensity settled over us.

Knock, Knock.

"Dolph honey, are you guys okay? I heard a commotion."

"Yeah Mom, we are fine."

"Okay, just checking, sweetheart. Goodnight." We heard her walk away.

"Well, I guess we should probably get to sleep soon," He said as he rolled off of me to his side of the bed. I sighed.

"Yeah, its getting late." I slid back underneath the covers. He turned off the TV and the lights.

"Goodnight Blondie."

"Goodnight Dolph."

My mind was racing but I pretended to sleep. It wasn't long before I noticed that Dolph was faking it to. We just laid in bed, side by side, silently pretending to be asleep. Eventually sleep came.
