Chapter 17: Let the games begin

Ashley confidently walked down the arena's corridors, repeating in her mind Michelle's words to feel sure of what she was about to do in less than an hour.

"About time!" Michelle smiled as the self proclaimed dirty diva approached her just outside the women's locker room, "I was wondering where you have disappeared, the show started 45 minutes ago!"

"It's not my fault if I had to look 'sexy and confident'," she rolled her eyes repeating exactly what Michelle had told her earlier, "and I was still in my pjs when you left."

"Ok, you have a point… now go backwards and turn on yourself." The other diva said gesturing with her hand.

"What?" The punk princess asked confused.

"Let me admire the final result, c'mon!"

"Oh…" And with a soft giggle she did what she was told to, "so what do you think?"

She was wearing an halter black top with a silver sparkly crown printed on it under a very short and tight leather jacket and a pair of black tight pants that ended inside her combat boots. Her hair was straight and her make up consisted in black eyeliner and mascara, pink eye shadow and transparent lip gloss. She was definitely breathtaking.

"Absolutely… hot!" The talented blonde nodded in approval.

"Are you sure? Cause I-"

"Wow Ash, looking sexy tonight!" Torrie Wilson sincerely complimented the punk diva with a smile passing the two fellow divas by on her way to the locker room.

Michelle grinned in an "I-told-you-so" way that made Ashley playfully roll her eyes.

"I'd change just one thing though."

"What?"

"Your boots."

"Oh c'mon y'all, what's wrong with my boots?" The dirty diva rolled her eyes.

"Nothing but I want you to look sexier." She winked, "So we need high heeled boots."

"Which I don't have."

"But fortunately for you my dear, I do. Black stilettos for the record. You can borrow mine." She added with a smile pointing at the locker room's door just behind them.

"Fine, thanks," she rolled her eyes again and lightly smiled, then the for her well known boots related topic made her think of the one she used to argue about it. "Michelle… are you sure that this is a good idea?"

"Sure! I mean those boots are just perfect for your outfit, really!"

"No I mean… about this whole thing?" She uncertainly asked.

"But absolutely, jealousy is the best revenge… and look at you so amazing! But you found a date, right?" She then skeptically asked.

"Of course, I'm not that desperate like that, I can still find someone to pretend to go out with…" she rolled her eyes, "even though it sounds a little pathetic right now."

"Awesome." Michelle beamed ignoring her last comment, "Anyway you'd better change your boots later cause if I didn't mention before, you have to kinda interfere in my match tonight which is… right now." She added literally pulling the punk diva with her down the corridor.

"Chelle! And what were you waiting for to tell me?" She asked almost shocked.

"As soon as we had done with the main and most important topic, of course." She simply shrugged, "Oh and btw here's the address of the club you have to go to." The athletic diva announced with a smile as she took out a little piece of paper from her pants' pocket and handed it to her, "They're going there."

"And how do you know?"

"Apparently your friend Layla can't keep her mouth shut." She chuckled.

You're not enough for me…

And so the punk princess just nodded twisting the note in her hand as Michelle disappeared behind the curtain.

Adam lightly sighed looking at the monitor in his locker room as he taped his wrists for the upcoming match since he had promised MVP to interfere against Kane. And there she was, walking down the ramp and distracting Jillian just enough to make Michelle win with a roll up.

He slightly shook his head, he didn't expect to see her and this gave him a strange feeling in his stomach that he definitely had to stop.

"Knock knock?" Kelly giggled entering his personal locker room without his permission.

"Can I help you?" He asked rather puzzled and a little annoyed.

"I just wanted to ask you if I could choose the place for tonight?" She softly giggled coming closer to him, "Cause Layla has talked so much about this cool club and-"

"Sure, no problem." He cut her off quite abruptly but she didn't seem to mind or to notice it.

"Awesome!" She smiled, "Oh good Ashley's back." She then added watching as the dirty diva muttered "You're mine, bitch" with an amused grin at Jillian. "Isn't that cool?" She said placing an hand on his shoulder as he was sat in front of the tv, "Even though isn't it dangerous in her condition?"

"Yeah, whatever…" he stood up, "Listen Kelly I should really go now, I'm on next."

"Sure, champ, see you later." She maliciously smiled blowing him a kiss as the Rated R superstar glanced at the monitor one last time.

Ashley nervously walked back and forth in the backstage one hour later.

"Calm down," Michelle playfully rolled her eyes coming out fully dressed from the locker room after her match "you look gorgeous and it will work perfectly, I'm sure."

"And my or better yours shoes?" She skeptically asked.

"They fit you perfectly, don't worry hun, just relax and enjoy your evening." She confidently smiled.

"Ok… I will, or at least I'll try!" She lightly smiled.

"Cool, that's what I wanted to hear."

Before the self proclaimed dirty diva could reply anything else her cell rang interrupting the two girls. "It's him, I have to meet him outside the arena, he's arrived!" She announced.

"Awesome," Michelle beamed "have fun and remember that I want to know every single tiny detail, okay?"

"Sure." Ashley softly giggled and gave her friend a quick hug, "Bye bye! Oh and please can you tell Paul and Brian that tomorrow I'll spend the whole day with them? I've been terrible these days to hang with!"

"Don't worry I'll tell them," she smiled "Bye sweetie!"

---

"So… it seems that Ashley is on a date tonight!" Brooke announced with an excited smile as she carefully closed the locker room's door.

"Brooke, are you eavesdropping again?" Layla rolled her eyes.

"C'mon that's fun! And besides that's the best way to know all the gossips around."

"I have to agree on this," Kelly Kelly jumped in while she was brushing her hair. "That's how I found out that Ashley is pregnant this morning."

"What?" Both her fellow divas yelled in disbelief.

"Exactly." The blonde grinned.

"She didn't tell me anything about this." Layla shrugged.

"Maybe she didn't want to spread the news." Brooke pointed out, "Where did you hear it?"

"Oh she was discussing it with her sweethearts at breakfast."

"I wonder who the father is then…"

"Maybe the one she's going out with tonight." Layla guessed.

"What I'd give to know who he is!" The brown haired diva giggled.

"Well I'd like to know that too," the blonde smirked looking at her reflection in the mirror, "but nothing is more important that MY date right now."

"Right," Layla grinned "Miss 'I go out with the champion'".

"Lucky bitch." Brooke commented amused.

"So how do I look?" Kelly asked turning on herself in a pink mini dress that was definitely too 'mini'.

"Awesome."

"Great."

"Perfect." She giggled at her friends' approval, "So I'll see you tomorrow cause I don't think I'll sleep in my room tonight." She concluded with a wink before closing the door behind her.

---

"Hey!" Ashley smiled as he got out of his car and walked towards her as soon as he spotted the diva.

"Hey yourself," He chuckled "I'm a little early sorry, but I didn't want to got stuck in the traffic and be late then… if this makes sense." He concluded with an amused grin.

"That's alright." She giggled.

"Shall we then Miss Massaro?" He asked offering his hand.

"Of course Mr. Hardy." She smiled. "Thank you," She then added as he opened the door for her.

"No problem madame." Jeff chuckled mocking a bow as he reached the driver seat. "Ready punk princess?"

"Let's go rainbow haired warrior." She echoed with a laugh.


So it's Jeff hehe! And in the next chapter we'll see how the double date turns out! And btw thanks to Christal to help me choose Ashley's date, lol :)
