Sunday Night

I sat in my hotel room by myself. Out of habit, I almost called Dolph to have him come entertain me. But the way I thought the way I'd left things would make that a little awkward. A knock at my door startled me. I got up and peaked through the peep hole. It was Natalya.

"Hey!" I said letting her into my room, happy to have a little company.

"Hey Kelsey. How are you?"

"I've been better, it's been a hectic week."

"Understandable. How is Zack doing?"

"Not too bad considering the circumstances. He was unconscious for over 24 hours after the accident. He'll be out at least two weeks with bruised ribs and a concussion."

"I'm glad he's going to be okay. So how did you end up going to see him?"

"Apparently in the last four years, it didn't occur to him to change his emergency contact! But honestly, as soon as I heard, I didn't want to be anywhere else. He's important to me, I have known him ten years, at one point I thought I'd spend the rest of my life with him. I was just so scared for him."

"You know he wants you back right?" She stated obviously.

"I don't know, I guess he might."

"The way he was looking at you when we all went out on Wednesday said differently."

"To be fair, you say that about everybody!"

"No I don't."

"You have been trying to convince me that Dolph looks at me that way to for like forever."

"Yeah, but he so does!" a few seconds went by. "Tell me I'm wrong."

"I can't."

"What aren't you telling me missy?"

"How do you always know when something happens! It is so weird!"

"It's a gift really. Now stop avoiding the matter at hand here! What exactly happened?" She said excitedly.

"Well… when Dolph took me home after we went out, he kissed me goodnight. Like kissed kissed me."

"Oh my god! That's awesome! So are you guys like together now?" she asked hopefully.

"No…I've mostly avoided him since," I sad sadly.

"Why would you do that? You know you are totally into him."

"No!…Well, I don't know how I feel. I don't know how he feels….I don't know how I want him to feel."

"Dig deep woman! Just don't wait too long to take action."

RAW

John Laurinitis opened the night.

"As you all know, tonight we were supposed to have a number one contenders match for the United States Championship. Unfortunately, one of the participants, Zack Ryder was attacked by an unknown assailant before the show and therefore isn't cleared to wrestle due to his injuries. I have no choice but to assign a replacement to face Dolph Ziggler. That person is…The Miz!"

My first job on Raw tonight was to face off with Nikki Bella. It was a really uneventful squash match that went in my favor. Once that was out of the way, I rushed to get ready for my segment with Dolph.

I hadn't talked to Dolph much since the kiss. I was a little nervous to see him. He was waiting for me at our shoot spot. When he saw me, he smiled.

"Hey Blondie."

"Hey."

"I've missed you!"

"I've missed you to."

"Can I reserve your company for a night this week. I need to catch up with my Kelsey." He smiled sheepishly. His dimples melted me a little.

"Absolutely. I think I'm in need of some Dolph time!"

"Sounds great! I will be looking forward to it."

The crew showed up to shoot our scene.

Action!

He approached me.

"Hey good lookin' "

"What do you want Ziggler?" I sneered.

"Just wanted to say how sorry I am that Zack can't wrestle tonight."

"I'm sure you are."

"I am! I mean I was really looking forward to kicking his Broski ass for the #1 contender spot. Too bad."

"Zack was going to whip your ass and you know it."

"That's cute. If you wanna watch a real man dominate a match. Feel free to come down and watch."

"I have better things to do."

"You keep telling yourself that. I'll win for you unlike that husband of yours!"

"Fuck you!" I slapped him across the face. He blew me a kiss and walked away.

Cut.

Dolph had to hurry off and get ready for his match. I was just relieved that our first interaction was a successful and un-awkward one. I felt like I had my best friend back.

I stood near the curtain waiting for my cue. The #1 contender match was well underway. Dolph was in control for a considerable portion of the match. The crowd was going nuts. Dolph jumped off of the top rope and landed on the Miz hard. I took that as my cue.

I walked out onto the stage and down the ramp, chair in hand. The crowd roared. I slid into the ring and whacked Dolph in the back of the head with the chair. He went down with a thud. I turned around and slammed the chair into the Miz's head as well. He to fell to the mat. I threw the chair down at the ring and smiled at the crowd. I did Zack's trademark Woo's in the ring before making my exit.

Sunday Night

We arrived in Denver for the next episode of Raw. I sat impatiently in my room, waiting for Dolph to arrive so we could hang out. Finally, he showed up.

"Hey Blondie!"

"Hey Dolph," I said giving him a big hug.

"How are you?"

"Great, I'm so excited! This upcoming week is going to be awesome. It's the first pay per view I actually get to be a part of."

"You are going to do great, plus they are a lot of fun to be a part of," he said reassuringly while making us some tequila sunrises-strong ones at that.

"I sure hope so. Zack is super pissed he can't wrestle." We both began downing our drinks.

"I bet, especially because he was going to win the title."

"Yeah, he'll get another shot at some point."

"I heard he was going to be at Elimination Chamber to shoot a few scenes or something but I'm not sure what. I haven't gotten the script yet."

"Yeah, me neither. It's kind of weird. They must be trying to rework stuff because of Zack's injury."

"Yeah, you must be right. How is he handling things, by the way?"

"Physically, he'll be okay. He's more disappointed about the situation."

"Well I'm glad things weren't worse."

"Yeah me to."

"I'm sorry that you went through it by yourself."

"It's okay. It was scary at first but after he woke up I was fine," I said shrugging.

"Well you are a strong woman, Kelsey."

"I try my best."

"So I forgot to tell you, you were the talk of the locker room last week." He said grinning smugly.

"What! Why?"

"The guys were pretty entertained by your attempted sneak down the hallway decked out in a Dolph Ziggler shirt!"

"God dammit! What did they say?"

"They just wished you were sneaking out of their rooms with their shirts on."

"Oh my god. That is hilarious and mortifying at the same time!"

"Take it as a compliment, I did."

"True. I think that's the only good way for me to remember that event. I'll just push out the memory of humiliation!" We both laughed. I got up to make us another round. I was definitely feeling the effects of the first drink.

"Blondie, do you have a deck of cards?"

"I do, why?" I said skeptically.

"Lets play poker," he said excitedly. I smiled at him.

"Your on." I handed him his drink and fetched the cards.

Our poker game got intense. We were both fairly good players. We sat around drinking and playing for almost an hour. What started out as a back and forth game, turned into a squash match. For some reason, I just couldn't catch a break.

"Damn it. This is my last five bucks." I said in disbelief as I tossed the money into the pot. I couldn't believe that I was losing so many hands in a row.

"What can I say? I've got skills!"

"Luck is more like it!"

"Whatever you say, Kelsey."

"Okay what do you have?" He flipped his cards. Two pair. "Are you kidding me?" I only had a pair of aces. He just smiled smugly. The alcohol had made us a little wobbly.

"That's probably for the best, Blondie."

"Why is that?"

"Because I cannot keep focused on the-on the cards right now." I began to laugh.

"You know, that is probably why I started to suck so bad." He was rubbing his right thigh.

"Oh sure, that's what it was," he said jokingly.

"I resent that! I am a great poker player!"

"I'm just giving you shit!" He rubbed his leg again.

"Dolph, what's wrong with your leg?" I asked a little concerned.

"It's alright. Just really sore."

"Let me help you."

"No, you don't have to. I'll be fine."

"I know I don't have to but I want to." He shook his head. "Just let me help!" I scooted over next to him on the bed. I began massaging his thigh.

"I'm glad we did this tonight."

"I am to." He groaned a little.

"I really did miss you. It was weird not seeing you for so many days….That feels really good by the way."

"I missed you to, Dolph." He looked me in the eyes. They burned with an intensity.

"I honestly can't imagine my life without you in it." My heart began to race.

"Dolph I-"

He closed the distance between us and his lips collided with mine. His strong arms lifted and pulled me onto his lap. I put my hands on either side of his face, deepening the kiss. His hands explored my back. I pulled away and began to kiss beneath his ear and made and trail all down his neck towards his chin. He groaned. He grabbed the sides of my face and pulled me into a deep kiss. His tongue entered my mouth. I kissed back firmly. I pulled away gently nibbling his bottom lip. This time, he seized the opportunity to suck on my neck. A moan escaped my lips. I could feel him smiling against my neck. He returned to my mouth. We continued making out until I could feel vibrating on my butt. I pulled away.

"Um Dolph?"

"Yeah?" he whispered.

"Your phone is uh…vibrating on my ass."

"Oh my god." I got off of his lap and he answered the phone. It was his mother, calling to ask about his cousin's wedding coming up. He chatted with her for a few minutes before hanging up. His mother could tell he was drunk so she made it quick. "Sorry about that." I handed him another drink. We looked at each other nervously.

"So maybe we should call it a night and crash."

"Do you care if I crash here?" He said softly.

"Of course not." I smiled at him.

I changed into my "It's Not Showing off .." pajama shirt and climbed into bed. Dolph took his shirt off and just slept in the shorts I'd borrowed from him post shower fiasco and hadn't given back. He climbed into bed with me and we cuddled. Soon we drifted off into a tequila aided slumber.
