A/N: Thanks to everyone who read and reviewed! You guys are amazing. On to chapter 3. Review & enjoy.
The next morning, Evie woke up to her alarm blaring loudly in her ear. Throwing the covers off of herself, she groaned, and then got out of bed.
She groaned for one reason, and it wasn't because she had to be up early to go to the gym. Nope, that wasn't the problem at all. Her problem was that Ted was going to be there. He was the last person she wanted to see in the morning.
By the time she was done getting ready it was almost time for her to go. Grabbing her phone and keycard, she quietly left the room. She didn't want to risk waking up Kristen.
"Surprisingly, you're on time." Ted said when he saw Evie come into his line of vision. "I wasn't expecting you to show at all."
"Even though I detest you, this is my career and I'm taking it seriously. Besides, the faster we get through my training, the faster I can be away from you." Evie shot back with as they walked into the hotel gym.
"Trust me, I don't want to be anywhere near you either."
Evie only rolled her eyes. He would try to make it look like she wanted this. Somehow she wasn't surprised that he would think like that. He was always a bit full of himself. In the simplest of terms, Ted was a narrow minded person.
"I'm going to do my warm up and you do yours. We'll meet up in the ring at the back of the gym in a half hour." Evie said calling the shots. It was her goal to spend as little time with him as she possibly could.
"Not happening." Ted said he lightly grabbed her arm. "I'm the trainer, you're the trainee. You do as I say."
"Only in the ring jackass."
"Nope, everywhere babes." He said arrogantly. Ted smirked when he saw the look of irritation on her face. He loved pushing her buttons.
"Fuck off." She mumbled.
Ted had clearly heard her clearly, but he decided to ignore it. Enough time had been wasted. "Okay, lets get started, forty five push ups."
Sighing, Evie dropped down onto the ground next to him. Silently, they began to do the push ups. She knew that this wasn't going to be easy. In fact, something told her that Ted would be making her life a living hell.
--
One month had passed and Ted was still annoying Evie. Actually, lets rephrase that, they were getting on each other's last nerves.
No matter how much they tried to put things aside, they couldn't. One or the other would say something that would set the other off.
The things they did to each other varied, depending on their maturity level for the day. Some of the things that they did were things that the average sixteen year old would do, not the average twenty seven year old.
On Wednesday, Evie stole Ted's things from his locker room. It got to the point to where she was even giving random things of his to the fans camping outside of the arena. To say he was angry would be an understatement.
However, two days before that, he got ahold of her cell phone. Ted had even went as far as texting her ex(one of many that he remembered) pretending to be her.
Needless to say, she was furious when she saw that her ex, Rob had showed up at the hotel. It took her a while, but she was able to get rid of him. When Rob had left, she went directly to Ted's room to go and yell at him. To Evie, it was obvious that Ted was the one that called him.
It didn't take long before the roster was taking bets on when the fights between Ted and Evie would start, and what they would be about. So far Kofi was 275 bucks richer. Meanwhile, Ted had three fights won, while Evie had won five.
However, it didn't take Vince long to get wind of what was going on. In fact, he had held five meetings with them in the last month. During the last meeting he had threatened the two young stars. If Evie kept up her behavior, she would lose her interviewing job and be sent back to FCW until further notice. While Ted would lose his feud with Orton that was scheduled for later in the year.
When Evie got into her room, she threw her gym bag across the small hotel room. All she wanted to do was scream at the top of her lungs. Her day had been very exhausting, thanks to Ted.
It was because of Ted that they had their fifth meeting with Vince. One more and she was screwed. It was back to FCW for her. She couldn't, she wouldn't allow that to happen. Her wrestling skills had improved, despite Ted being a douche. She liked the friends that she had made backstage. Truth be told, backstage interviewing was okay. It was a matter of time until she was able to set foot into the ring.
Laying on the bed, she put a pillow over her face and let out a loud and long muffled scream. It felt good to let the scream out, she had been holding it in for far too long.
Pushing the pillow of her face, she dug her phone out of her pocket and dialed her cousin's number. In all her stress, Evie felt like Kristen was adding even more pressure onto her. Anytime they talked, it was Ted this or Ted that. It had got to the point to where Evie had gone out of her way to ignore calls from her cousin.
"I hate Ted! I hate him! I hate him!" Evie said angrily into the phone when Kristen had answered. "I absolutely hate him."
"What did he do today?" Kristen asked with a sigh. She was getting irritated, her plan wasn't working. Well, more like Evie was too self involved with herself. To Kristen, Evie's whole reason for being in the WWE was to be her spy. Evie's job was to find out why Ted had left her. So far, she was failing miserably. Kristen hated that, it was about her, not Evie.
"He threw ice down my shirt."
"So?"
"So?" Evie mimicked. "It means that if we have one more meeting with Vince McMahon, I'm fucked. Everything that I worked so hard for will be thrown in the shitter."
"Oh damn that sucks." Kristen said somewhat sincerely. She felt bad for her cousin because she's wanted this for a long time. However, she was slightly mad that Evie hadn't started digging for information. She was wasting valuable time.
"Yeah, so I'm putting your little plan on the back burner for now."
"Why? You can't!"
"I can and I fucking will." Evie snapped into the phone. "I have enough pressure at work. I don't need any added stress."
"Sorry."
"Its whatever."
"Can I suggest something?"
"Kris.." Evie said with a warning tone in her voice.
"This is for after you get your training and everything settled." She said quickly interrupting.
"I'm listening." Evie replied completely uninterested.
"Okay great." Kristen said completely missing Evie's dry tone. "Once this is all set and done, build up a friendship with him. Get him to break his walls down and he'll talk."
"Sure thing." She said humoring Kristen. In all actuality, Evie didn't give a shit anymore.
After five more minutes of talking, the two girls hung up the phone. Evie still didn't care about anything involving Ted, and Kristen, well, she thought that a breakthrough was going to be made.
'There has got to be some way out of this.' Evie thought to herself as she grabbed her things and headed towards the door. She needed some fresh air and sitting in the room wasn't going to help her out one bit.
"Cody?" Evie questioned as she slightly jumped back, she wasn't expecting him. "What can I do for you?" She questioned slightly curious.
