It's another day for us and we've all decided to go for a morning swim. Alex and I are getting ready in our room and I come out of the bathroom after changing into my swimsuit.
"Wow." Alex grins at me.
"Oh, you've seen me in one of these before." I laugh.
"Doesn't matter."
"I know it doesn't, because not matter what it is I wear...it just amazes you."
"Because I love you and you're gorgeous in anything." Alex says as he comes over and kisses my cheek.
I smile and grab the towels in one hand, and my phone in the other and we walk out of the room. We head downstairs to meet Aly and Mike at the pool. Aly's standing by the small table she and Mike claimed, still wearing her cover up and messing with her phone. Mike has set their towels down and is sitting in one of the chairs while on his own phone. Aly can see Wade, Cody, Gabriel and Drew out of the corner of her eye but she just ignores them since they can't do anything anyway. Then Alex and I walk in, looking over and seeing Aly and Mike at the table. We walk over and I set our towels down and sit down in one of the chairs myself for a little bit. Alex sits beside me. Aly sets down her phone and leans against Mike's chair.
"So, we have a busy day today."
"Yeah, autograph signings and a house show."
"I wonder who we're going against tonight at the show."
"I don't know, I guess we'll find out when we get there."
"Should be interesting..."
"Yeah." Mike agrees.
We sit there for a while, before Aly and Mike decide to head into the pool. She giggles and grins as he pulls off his shirt after standing. He then looks at her, noticing the grin.
"What're you grinning about?"
"Nothing." She giggles.
"Uh-huh..."
She just grins and takes off her cover up. Mike smirks, getting an idea. He then out of nowhere picks her up and starts walking towards the pool.
"What are you doing?" She says after squealing.
"We're going swimming..."
"You better not throw me in." She threatens, clinging to him as he walks past the
Smackdown group without a glance.
"And what if I do? Hmm?"
"I'll get revenge."
"Oooh, I'm scared." He chuckles.
"You should be. I control the lip gloss you know."
"Oh, don't drop that bomb on me. Don't bring the lip gloss into this."
"Well don't throw me in then."
"How do you know I was even planning on doing that anyway?"
"I know you."
"Well for once you're wrong. I wasn't going to drop you in the water."
"Oh really. Then what are you planning?"
"You'll see."
She eyes him warily. He gets closer to the pool and stops near the edge of it. It seems like he's going to drop her in but he ends up placing her into the water carefully, before jumping in himself.
"Thank you for not throwing me in." She says once he pops to the surface."
"I told you I wasn't going to throw you in."
"Well sometimes you're sneaky." She laughs, swimming around him.
"And sometimes you're sneaky."
"Touche."
"But you love the sneakiness."
"Back at you." She teases.
"You just love swimming around me in a circle don't you?"
"It's entertaining at least until it gets me dizzy."
"Well don't do it if it makes you dizzy." He chuckles.
"Okay." She says simply, stopping in front of him.
Then out of nowhere she gets splashed, and she looks at Mike.
"Wasn't me..."
She spins around and Alex is whistling innocently.
"DC." She says threateningly.
"What?" He asks, innocently and she splashes him in the face.
"Oh, it's on now..." He says going after her.
"Eep." She squeals, darting behind Mike.
"Don't even think about it Alex..."
"Think about what."
"You know what."
Aly presses herself against Mike's back, peering at Alex over Mike's shoulder.
"Alex..." I say from far behind him.
"Whaaaat."
"What're you doing?"
"Bugging Windy."
"Well you better stop bugging her and get back over here, otherwise no lip gloss for you later."
His eyes go wide and he immediaetly listens.
"That's what I thought." I laugh.
"Thank you." You say to me, coming out from hiding behind Mike.
"You're welcome." I giggle.
"No more bugging her. We'll do our own thing, and they'll do their own thing." I say to Alex.
"Awww okay."
"You can go a day without bugging her haha."
"But it's so fun."
"I know but you're not going to die if you can't bug her."
"As long as I have you, I'll be alright." Alex chuckles.
"Good." I smile, putting my arms around his neck and kissing him quickly.
He smiles.
"PDA-A-A." Aly sings.
"Be quiet Aly."
"I couldn't resist." She laughs.
"Oh just go back to whatever you were doing."
"I got it." Mike says, tugging her towards the deep end.
"Miiike, what're you doing?" She asks.
"We're going over here."
"And why are we going over here exactly?"
"Because."
"Because why?"
"Because I said so."
"Uh...huh..."
"It gets you away from Alex at least..."
"Yeah." She shrugs.
"No more hiding behind me..." He laughs.
"But you're my protector." She giggles.
"No more hiding behind me for right now...that doesn't mean I won't keep protecting you."
"Aww." She smiles.
"I love you, and I always will." He smiles, wrapping his arms around her.
"I love you too, always." She returns, kissing him gently.
Nearby all our stalkers from Smackdown were witnessing this and they couldn't help but get scowls on their faces. We all swim for a bit, staying away from the stalkers when they choose to enter the water. After a while more people walk into the pool area and its Maryse, Ted, Morrison, and Eve.
"Great..." I sigh.
"Don't worry about them." Alex says, lifting my chin with one of his fingers.
"I'm right here and I'm not leaving you or paying them any attention."
"Well if Eve tries anything, you're going to have to hold me back."
"I know." He chuckles.
"I think for the best...for now anyway, is to get out of the water." I suggest.
"Alright." Alex agrees.
We go over to one of the sides of the pool and climb out, going back over to the table and
grabbing the towels. We both dry off and then Alex sits in one of the chairs, pulling me down onto his lap. I squeak, not expecting him to do that.
"Sneak."
"You love it."
"Do I now?"
"Yes."
"Hmmm, can you prove that?"
"Because you love me. So I don't hae to prove anything else.
"That's true..."
Alex smiles and kisses my forehead. Meanwhile Aly and Mike are still in the pool, but when she gets sight of Maryse she starts mumbling angrily.
"Lys...look at me." Mike says soothingly.
She shoots a glare at Maryse but turns her head to lock eyes with him.
"What?" She mumbles.
"Ignore them."
"But..."
"No...ignore her, ignore them all. I'm paying attention to you...not them."
"...okay..."
"They don't matter, only you do."
She gives a tiny smile, and he kisses her quickly.
"Will it make you feel better if we got out?"
"Jacuzzi for a bit?"
"Yeah, sure." He nods.
He climbs out and then helps her out, not letting go as they walk over to the jacuzzi as get in.
"Better?" He asks, pulling her into him.
"Uh-huh." She agrees as she snuggles into him.
"Good." He smiles, resting his head on hers.
"Love you." She says quietly.
"I love you too."
We never got to go back into the pool since the entire time, all the stalkers were sticking around in it. I looked at the time and it was getting closer to the time for us to be at the autograph signing. I nudge Alex, showing him the time.
"Ah, we better get going then."
I get up and wrap the towel around me and put my shoes back on. We walk over to Aly and Mike, and I show him what time it is.
"Oh wow. Time to go." He says.
Alex and I start heading out of the pool area, while Aly and Mike get out of the jacuzzi, grabbing towels and heading back themselves. We all head up to our rooms and get ready for the autograph signing. My hair was still a little wet, so I grabbed my hairdryer and started drying my hair after I finished getting dressed. Alex relaxes on the bed and waits for me to be done. After I thought my hair was dry enough, I unplugged the dryer and walked out of the bathroom.
"Alright, even though I know what you're going to say...I have to ask. How do I look?"
I had gotten dressed in a leopard print shirt with a long sleeve black blouse over it, followed by bootcut jeans. To match the shirt, I wore leopard print heels, the same color of the shirt of course. I had on my engagement and promise rings, a heat pendant necklace and turquoise teardrop earrings. I had applied black eyeshadow, turquoise nail polish and caramel lip gloss. I had finished everything off with my hair tied sideways like a side ponytail with a turquoise flower clip in my hair on the side.
"Beautiful as always."
"Thought so." I smile, grabbing my jacket.
He grabs his jacket too and we head downstairs to wait on Aly and Mike. After she's done changing after drying off and whatnot, she walks out of the bathroom too.
"Amazing as always."
"Thank you." She smiles.
"You going to give the fangirls that 'I'm not amused' face again?" He laughs.
"It depends." She says amusedly.
"Depends on what they do..." She adds.
"I guess we'll see then."
She nods and puts her jacket on.
"Besides they can look but they can't touch." She comments with a half smirk as she dips her hands into the back pockets of his jeans.
"You enjoy doing that too much." He chuckles, referring to her hands in his back pockets.
She giggles.
"But you're going to have to take them out in order for us to leave..."
"Awww."
"If not, it's going to look awfully weird walking out of that elevator."
"True..." She sighs, taking her hands out.
"Let's go." He says, putting an arm around her shoulders and then they walk out of the room
heading to the car.
"What took you?" I ask as they get into the car.
"We were talking."
"But you were the same way the other night, so don't go asking us what took so long." She
laughs.
"Touche."
Then Mike starts up the car and we head off to the autograph signing.
"Oh boy we're going to have writer's cramp for sure when this is over." Aly says incredulously
as we see the line of people.
"I guess so...holy crap. How many are there like 300?"
"I don't know."
After parking we all get out and walk inside, and as soon as people see us come up to the table and get situated they cheer and whatnot. We all laugh and wave. We socialize for a bit, before settling down and getting ready to get writer's cramp from all the autographs. We sign things for the fans, chatting with them and taking pictures.
"Ugh, not even done yet and I already have writer's cramp."
"I know." Aly winces, shaking out her hand.
We look over and see Mike taking a picture with a little kid, making that 'grrr' face of his and we both laugh.
"Dorkus." Aly comments.
"You love me anyway..." He mutters to her.
"I do." She giggles.
Then that same little kid, came up to her after Mike and said in the cutest voice ever that she was really pretty.
"Awww thank you." She smiles.
She signs what he brought as well. It was a long long autograph signing. We got to the last person finally and after that we shook out our hands from writing so much.
"Owwwww."
"Too much writing..."
"Uh-huh. I'm seeing colored squares too...too many flashes.
"Yeah, I'm with you on that one..."
"It gets a little easier the more you do." Mike shrugs, chuckling.
"Says the one who's already gotten used to it, after being in the business for years."
"Just saying." He laughs.
Then we all get up as they start cleaning everything up. We grab our jackets and put them on, then heading outside and getting back into the car to head back to the hotel to relax until showtime. Alex and I get to my room and I kick off my shoes, curling up on the bed.
"My hand hurts." I comment.
He comes over after taking his shoes off and lays down next to me. He takes my hand that I was writing with, which was my right one and he kissed it.
"Better?"
"Maybe a little. Thank you." I giggle.
"Like I've said before...anything for you."
I smile and snuggle up to him.
"How are you so comfortable?"
"It's a gift."
"I guess so...teddy bear and or pillow."
Alex chuckles.
"You just amaze me sometimes."
"Just as you amaze me." He says in return.
"I can't wait to see whose butt I'm kicking tonight."
"It would make your day if it was Eve wouldn't it?"
"You have no idea."
"Actually I do. I feel the same way when I get my hands on one of your stalkers, especially
Barrett."
"Who you've known for years..."
"That doesn't really mean much to me in his case.
"I know, I was just saying. I can't believe you worked with him all those years and here you are in the same business again with him..."
"Life works in weird ways."
"It's a small world afterall." I laugh.
Alex chuckles and agrees.
"You know if you keep doing that, I'm going to end up falling asleep." I say, referring to him running his fingers through my hair.
"I know. I have an alarm set in case we fall asleep."
"Look at you, ready ahead of time."
"Gotta be prepared."
"Of course." I smile.
Alex keeps running his fingers through my hair and I do end up falling asleep. Surprisingly Alex doesn't and he just relaxes, watching tv and doing things on his phone while I sleep on his chest. In the meantime, Aly and Mike were laying there on the bed in their room as well, with her snuggled up to him. She lays there drawing patterns on his chest with her nails, absentmindedly rubbing her lips together while having her eyes closed.
"I smell that lipgloss." He mutters.
"Mm..." She laughs faintly.
"What is it this time?"
"Whipped vanilla."
"Smells awesome."
"You would think so." She snickers.
"Nothing beats the raspberry sorbet though."
"That's your favorite huh?"
"Yes." He nods.
"I'll keep that in mind."
"Good." He smiles.
She pulls away from him and stretches, a few popping noises occuring.
"How's the hand feeling?"
"Still hurts a little."
"Give me the hand..."
She puts out her right hand. He grabs it and kisses it a few times, hoping that helps it feel better.
"Feel better?"
"Yes, thank you." She smiles.
"You're welcome." He smiles back.
"You're too sweet." She says as he rolls over to lay against her like she usually does to him.
She lays one hand on the arm that is thrown across her waist and the other hand is buried in his hair, dragging her nails back and forth soothingly.
"Now if you keep doing that, I'll fall asleep." He mutters.
"I have an alarm set, I figured one or both of us would be falling asleep."
"Smart..." He comments.
"I know." She giggles a little.
"So if you feel like you're going to fall asleep, just go with it...the alarm will wake you or us
up." She adds.
"Okay." He agrees.
He too ends up falling asleep with his head on her shoulder. She looks and sees him fast
asleep and she giggles quietly. She manages to get her phone out and she takes a picture of him fast asleep. She puts it on her facebook with the caption, 'Awww, I put him to sleep. Guess I have the magic touch haha. ;D'. She wasn't that tired, so she stayed awake doing things to amuse herself until it was time to get ready to leave. The alarm starts going off and Mike doesn't stir. She shuts it off and starts trying to wake him up.
"Miiiike, get up..."
He grumbles and buries his face in her neck.
"Mike." She giggles, poking his sides.
"What..." He mumbles.
"Its time to get up."
"Five more minutes."
"Alright but 5 and that's it."
She leaves him for the five minutes and she gets ready in the bathroom. She finishes and comes out, sitting beside him on the bed.
"Mike, babe, its time to really get up now."
"I am up..." He mumbles.
"Like up up."
"Give me a minute..."
"I'll let you have the lip gloss if you hurry and get up and ready." She offers, trying to bribe him
to get up.
That makes him sit right up.
"I'm up!"
She laughs.
"Go get ready..."
He bolts off the bed and she just shakes her head in amusement. Again for the 3rd time she hears noises coming from the bathroom.
"Are you going to make it in there?" She teases.
"Yeah, I'm fine!"
She giggles and waits for him to be done. He kind of fumbles with the doorknob, trying to get out and he manages to finally come out of the bathroom.
"Issues?" She laughs.
"No...I'm good."
"You sure?" She teases as she gets up and makes sure her things are together.
"Yeah...100% sure."
She laughs lightly as she feels him come up behind her.
"Now I believe I deserve that lip gloss."
"I guess..." She trails off, turning around.
"What...you don't think I deserve it?"
"I'm just teasing, relax."
"Uh-huh..."
She slides her arms around his neck and kisses him. She only lets him get a big of a taste of the vanilla before pulling away.
"Awww." He pouts.
"You can have more later, we're going to be late if we don't go."
"Alright." He sighs.
They gather their stuff and go to meet Alex and myself. When they get down to the car, I'm half awake and half asleep. I'm still trying to wake up.
"Gonna make it there Dolce?" Aly giggles.
"Huh?" Yeah I'm good."
We drive off to the arena and by the time we get there, I'm mostly awake now. We walk into
the arena, Aly and I go right to the locker room to change, just so that we're ready for our matches ahead of time. We look on the sheet in the room and see that I'm facing Eve and Aly's up against Beth Pheonix.
"Ohhh, Alex so called that." I say about seeing Eve as my opponent tonight.
"He did? Nice."
"I'm going to enjoy this soooo much."
"I bet." Aly giggles.
"She'll be hurting tomorrow." Aly adds amusedly.
"Definately." I nod.
"And chances are I'll probably be hurting too." She winces.
"Yeah, Beth's finishing move...yikes."
"I know."
"Just be careful when you have that match."
She nods as we start to head back to the room to wait for our matches. We walk into the room and I sit down next to Alex with an evil grin creeping onto my face.
"Okay you have an evil look, you're facing Eve aren't you." Alex says.
"...you so called the match...yes."
Alex laughs.
"The day just got better."
"For you." Aly says, slightly amused.
"Oh yea, she's facing Beth tonight." I add, pointing to her.
"Ooh." Mike and Alex both cringe a little.
"Yeah..." She adds.
"I like Beth and all but I'm not looking forward to how much it's going to hurt."
"Well, you can't always have the easy and painless matches."
"I know." She sighs.
"And let me guess, you're going against Randy like you always do?"
I get a roll of the eyes and a nod in response.
"I hope this ends soon." I sigh.
"Agreed." Aly grumbles, snuggling into Mike.
"It's going to be a long night..."
"For sure."
"You're wearing the blue ring attire." Alex points out.
"Yes, yes I am."
"I like the blue." He grins.
"I know you do..."
Aly snickers and shakes her head.
"I like the red and black of your ring attire." Mike says in her ear.
She tilts her head to look at him and giggles. He just smirks, looking back at her.
"Of course you do." She lays a kiss on his jaw.
"Want me ringside for your match or no?" He asks her.
"Um, up to you." She shrugs.
"Well I do want to be there for you if you get hurt."
"Okay." She agrees.
"Because remember, I'm your protector." He says quietly, enough for ony her to hear.
She smiles and kisses him.
"Awww." I tease.
Aly waves her hand at me without pulling away from Mike.
"PDA-A-A." I laugh, and Alex snickers.
"You're one to talk, you should see yourselves sometimes." She says back.
Alex just grins, holding me tight.
"Do not get any ideas..." I say, looking ath im.
"Who me?" He says innocently.
"Yes you..." I poke his chest.
"I can't promist anything." He chuckles.
"Uh-huh..."
"You know when you say that, you're just giving him ideas anyway right?" Aly points out
laughing.
"Ah, but you're the one who mentioned the idea first..."
"I did not, I was merely making a point."
"Well it still got him thinking about it..."
"It's not my fault, blame him!"
"It's no one's fault...Alex thinks that way all the time...it's a guy thing." Mike comments.
"...good point." I say after a pause.
"You and your guy brains..."
Mike and Alex both shrug sheepishly.
"I'm glad I can't read minds, I don't know what you're always thinking about..."
"My mind is already bad enough on it's own." Aly laughs.
"No kidding haha."
Aly just laughs more, shrugging. Then there's a knock on the door and the usual stagehand
says that it's time for her match. Mike and her then get up.
"Good luck." Alex says as he and Aly do their usual fist bump.
"Good luck." I echo, us doing our handshake.
"Thanks." She smiles before leaving with Mike.
As they get closer to the curtain, she sighs.
"This is going to be a very painful match."
She feels Mike kiss the top of her head.
"I'll be there afterwards to make it feel better." He assure her.
"You're too sweet." She smiles a little.
"That's because I'm your protector."
"And you've helped me after hard matches countless times already so it's only right that I
return the favor." He adds.
She burrows into his arms as they stand by the curtain, waiting for Beth since she's going out first. Beth walks by and her music is played, then walks out and does her entrance thing and gets into the ring. Then she stands there and waits as her music fades and Aly's plays, Aly walking out with Mike and takes a deep breath as she walks down the ramp with him. As she gets to the bottom of the ramp near the ring, Mike whispers in her ear that he's there for her if something happens. She nods and gets into the ring like always.
The bell rings and Aly immediately goes after Beth, wrapping her arms around her waist from behind. Beth powers out of the hold and reverses it onto Aly, then picks her up and drops her face first to the apron. Beth picks her up against and rams her into the corner, then sits her on the stop rope. That's where Beth picked her up again and held her in the air and walked away from the corner. That's when Beth dropped her behind herself and walked away. Little did we all know, Aly landed on her knee wrong. Beth went over and pinned her, trying to get the win. Aly managed to kick out and held her knee afterwards. Beth started to get her up, and Aly fought back with punching her in the gut a few time until she let go. But Beth picked Aly up and dropped her on her knee and held her there in a type of submission. Aly did manage to get out of it but kicking her not so injured up and kneeing Beth in the head. This gave Aly the chance to recover a bit.
She managed to grab Beth around the waist again, but favoring her knee a bit. But Beth rushed into the ropes, making Aly let go. Beth took this chance to get Aly's arms locked behind her, then she lifted her up in the air. After waiting a while, she dropped Aly face first to the mat and rolled her over going for the pin. The ref counted to 3 and Beth had won the match. The ref raised her hand in victory and then she left the ring. Mike slide in to make sure Aly was alright, since she was favoring her knee earlier.
"I'm okay...I think." She says, carefully getting up.
She winces after putting some weight on her right leg.
"It doesn't look like you're okay..."
She doesn't answer, gingerly getting out of the ring and then leaning on Mike a little as they go backstage.
"Trainer or no?" He asks.
"Probably a better idea." She sighs.
He nods, and they head to the trainer's room. But they take their time because of her knee.
She pauses, hissing as a good sized twinge shoots through her knee.
"Can you walk, or do you want me to carry you?" He asks in concern.
She just lays her head against his arm, waiting for the twinge to pass. He takes one look and scoops her up. She grips his shirt and tries to ignore the pain. They get to the trainer's, and he walks in still carrying her. She explains to the trainer what happened in the match. The trainer checks it out and then recommends some ice and to stay off it as much as possible for the next few days. The trainer goes to the supplies and digs around, producing a knee brace and handing it to her.
"Wear that when you're on your feet and it should help some as well. As for the pain, try advil
or tylenol first."
"Alright, thank you." She says, starting to slide off the table.
"Wait, let's put that knee brace on first." Mike comments.
She sighs and hands it to him. He takes it and puts it on her knee and then she carefully slides off the table. She takes a few steps and nods at him. He goes and opens the door for her and they slowly head over to the locker room so that she can change. He waits outside, and once she's done she slowly walks out.
"Note to self, flat shoes for the next few days." She mumbles, leaning against him as they
walk to the room.
"I'll be sure to remind you, if you forget."
"Thanks. If I could go barefoot right now, I would but not on these floors..."
"Right..."
"Are you alright to walk in those shoes right now?" He asks her.
"We're not that far from the room, I'll take them off in there. Thank you though."
"It's my job to worry about you in situations like these...but you're welcome."
They soon get to the room and Mike taps on the door first.
"Everything is fine, you can come in." I say from inside the room.
"I'm not about to walk in on you two for the five millionth time." Mike remarks as he and Aly
walk in.
He looks at her pointedly and she holds up her hands, sitting on the couch and propping up her knee.
"What happened?" I ask.
"I messed up my knee a little."
"Oh no...are you gonna be alright?"
"I'll be fine. I was told to stay off it, ice it, and wear a brace when I'm on my feet."
"Well that's good."
Mike gets a bag of ice and some advil plus a drink and brings them to Aly.
"Thank you." She smiles sweetly.
"That's what I'm here for." He smiles back.
She takes the advil and sets the ice on her knee after taking off her heels. Mike gently shifts her so that he can sit behind her and she leans back, hugging the arm he puts around her.
"Looking forward to kicking some ass Dolce?" Aly asks.
"Of course I am. I can't wait to get my hands on Eve again."
Aly, Mike and Alex laugh and I grin.
"Plus, if he comes out with me...he'll serve as a distraction at the last minute for me to
totally destroy her." I say, pointing at Alex.
Alex snickers and Mike smirks.
"Just like I do to Maryse when she faces Lys."
"Right, because we all know she'll pay more attention to him than the match if he distracts
her...just like what happens with you two."
"Right."
Then the same stagehand knocks on the door again, telling me that it's time for my match.
"I am so ready for this..." I say getting up, and putting on my jacket.
"Have fun." Aly smiles.
"Oh I think I'm going to have more than just fun."
Mike and Aly laugh as I leave with Alex. We walk down to the curtain and wait since Eve was going to go out first because she was the champion. I stand there, jumping in place and punching my fists and whatnot, getting set for the match. Eve walks by of course and the tech guy plays her music and she walks out. Once her music fades, the tech guy plays mine and I walk out with Alex. I do my pose on the small ramp, before walking down it with Alex and to the ring. I kept a glare on Eve as rounded the ring and got up onto the side, after taking off my jacket and handing it to Alex. I faced my back towards Eve and did my entrance to the ring, then posed on the turnbuckle before my music faded. Eve already had her eyes on Alex, and I knew she did. So after the bell rang, I went up to her and stared her in the face. Her eyes were so glued on Alex, that she didn't even know what was coming next. Anger filled my body and I reached out and slapped her hard across the face.
"Keep your eyes off my fiance." I growl.
That's when she gets angry herself and starts coming after me with a series of elbows in the face, sending me into the corner. She turned me around, and I turned back around to face her. But that only had me get met with a kick to the gut. The ref pulls Eve off of me as I recover in the corner. I walk forward slightly, and I'm met with another swift kick to the gut. I just plain out step forward and slap her again as I see her eyes back on Alex. She turns around for a quick moment, then faces me where I go to hit her but she moves and ends up dropkicking me. Eve rushes over and goes for the pin but I kick out at 2.
After I get up, I grab Eve by the hair and elbow her in the face. I pull her and send her into the ropes, leaning over to try to flip over over me. But she countered and kicked me in the shoulder, then when she came back she took my head and slammed me backwards on the apron. I lay there, trying to regain stamina. Eve goes against the ropes and basically flips and she lands right on me, going for the pin after. It's no good because I kick out anyway. I crawl over to the corner and stand there hoping to regain my strength. Eve tells me to come on and whatnot, then running and hitting me with a clothesline in the corner. She picks me up and then takes me down, going back over to the corner and jumping up onto the top. She checks where I am and if I'm moving. Then she flips, doing the moonsault and I quickly roll out of the way.
I sit in the corner, regaining my strength some more as Eve rolls around on the apron. I stand up still regaining my strength/staminia. Eve gets up as well and turns around, where she's met with a clothesline by me. I go for the pin, but she kicks out. I hit the apron with my hand in frustration. I crawl onto her and start repeatedly hitting her head against the apron until the ref gets me to back off. I back off willingly and wait for her to get up. This is where I get set for a finisher, I thank Shawn for teaching Aly and me his superkick because I'm going to teach Eve a lesson. Eve turns around and sees Alex of course. This is the perfect distraction, as she stands up and stares at Alex hoping that he'll show sympathy for her in this match. Not a chance Eve, not a chance. He's mine, not yours. I get ready for the moment she turns around. The moment she turns around, I superkick her in the face and she goes falling to the mat. I quickly cover her for the pin, and the ref counts to 3, signalling the end of the match and me winning. I stand up in triumph and the ref raises my hand in victory.
I decide to go over to Eve one last time, and I tell her to stay away from Alex if she knew what was good for her. I then roll out of the ring and go right over to Alex who puts an arm around me. We walk backwards towards the small ramp and curtain, and I smile triumphantly as I stare at Eve who's slowly moving from recieving the superkick from me.
Alex is chuckling beside me and I reach the top of the ramp, turning around and heading backstage.
"Oh don't I feel so much better now."
"I can tell." Alex laughs.
"I doubt that's going to stop her from coming after you still, but I got to hurt her...that's all that
matters."
"Right."
We get back to the room, but Alex stops me.
"Aren't you going to go change?"
"I will soon, only because you like the blue...don't want to change out of it just yet." I laugh,
opening the door.
"I love you." He grins.
"Love you too." I smile, as we walk in.
"Is she still moving?" Mike jokes quietly since Aly's beginning to doze off.
"She's still moving, but barely after missing her moonsault and the superkick to the face I gave her." I smile evilly.
"Nice." He chuckles.
"Oh and I can guarantee her face will be bruised and red, but not because of the superkick..."
"What did you do?"
"What do I always do? I slapped her really hard...the first time she totally didn't see it coming
since she was too busy keeping her eyes glued to Alex."
Mike snickers.
"I know she's not going to stop because of what I did to her, but I got to hurt her tonight and
I'm happy about that."
"I see that."
"But now I can relax now..." I sigh, getting more comfortable on the couch.
Alex sits with me. Mike shifts Aly so that she's laying down with her head in his lap as he runs his fingers through her hair. We enjoy the silence until it's broken by the stagehands calling for Mike.
"Hey Carls, see if Cena'll come sit with Lys while we're gone. I know the stalkers can't do anything but I still don't want her in here by herself and I know you want to be out there with us."
"I'm on it." I say, reaching over and grabbing my phone and calling John.
"Hello?" John answers.
"Hey John, I got a favor to ask you."
"Lay it on me."
"Well Mike wants to know if you'll come and keep Aly company. Only because she kind of got hurt in her match against Beth tonight. He knows that our stalkers can't do anything, but he still doesn't want her in here by herself since I'm going out with him and Alex for his match against Randy."
"Yeah no problem, what happened?"
"She hurt her knee. But she's sleeping now and she has ice and tylenol to dull the pain. She also has a knee brace if she has to walk around. Should be better in a few days."
"Oh, alright. I'm on my way."
"Alright." I say, then hanging up.
"He's on the way."
"Thanks Carls."
"What're friends for right?"
"Right." He chuckles.
Soon there was a knock on the door, and I got up and opened it.
"Hey John." I smile.
"Hey Car." He greets me.
"Thanks for doing this..." I say, as he walks in.
"I don't mind at all." John shrugs.
Mike carefully moves out from under Aly and turns to John.
"I know we haven't gotten along lately but thanks." Mike says.
"No problem, I care about her safety just as much as you do."
Mike nods and they shake hands. Alex gets up and the three of us head out of the room. John is sitting on the other couch, keeping an eye on Aly to make sure nothing happens and Aly's still sleeping. After a bit she starts to stir and blearily opens her eyes.
"Hi Sully..." She mumbles sleepily after registering who was sitting on the couch.
"Hey Boo, how's that knee feeling?"
"Eh...could be better, could be worse."
"Well, as long as you weren't severely injured..."
"Nope." She shakes her head.
"Good...I'd miss seeing you around if you were injured."
"I'd miss you too." She laughs lightly.
"It'd be less exciting backstage."
"It would." She snickers.
"Plus, I think Mike would miss you far too much."
"I know he would. I would miss him just as much." She nods slowly.
"In order for that not to happen, you'll have to take it easy for the next few days. It must suck
to wear that knee brace, god knows I've had to wear one of those once. Biggest pain in the
butt."
"Yeah." She sighs.
"Don't worry though, you'll be up and walking normally in no time."
"I damn sure hope so. I have that rematch with Eve on Monday."
"Well today's only Wednesday...that's plenty of time to rest that knee of yours."
She nods in agreement.
"How'd you hurt your knee anyway? Land on it wrong or something?"
"Yeah. Beth picked me up, dropped me back on the apron and I landed wrong."
"Ouch." He winces.
"Yeah...that did not feel very good."
"Well you're lucky that you didn't really get hurt."
"I know."
"I'm glad you're okay though."
"Thanks." She smiles a little, shifting so that she's sitting up with her back against the arm
of the couch.
After a while, Mike comes back but without Alex and I.
"Where's Dolce and DC?" You ask.
"The GM emailed Cole on his phone...saying that Alex was going to have a no holds barred
match against Randy. Also said that if I didn't head backstage, I'd be stripped of the title."
"Damn GM." Aly sighs, scooching so there's a spot for Mike behind her.
"I know this isn't going to end well for him..."
"Doubt it."
Alex and I do come back eventually, him holding the back of his neck due to the RKO.
"You alright DC?"
"Yeah, I'll be fine...just sore for now."
John then gets up.
"Well I'll be heading out now. Hope that knee gets better soon." He says to her.
"Thanks Sully."
"Before you go, aren't you forgetting something?" She asks, putting her arms out for a hug.
He laughs and comes over, hugging her. Then he hugs me too.
"We'll see you later." I say, pulling back from the hug.
"You know it." He agrees before he leaves.
"Well I guess I should go change, then after I come back you two can change too." I say to
Mike and Alex.
They both nod.
I head back out the door and to the locker room, changing fairly quickly. Then I walk back with my bag in hand, and then walk back into the room. Alex and Mike get up and go to change.
"So, feeling any better?"
"Somewhat." She says, picking up the melted bag of ice.
"That's good. Let's hope it's better by Monday...it should be."
"I hope so." She sighs and carefully gets up to get rid of the melted ice bag.
Then a little bit later, Mike and Alex walk back in with their bags, all ready to go. Aly and I gather our things. She goes to grab her bag but finds it being taken from her.
"I've got it." Mike says.
She sighs and smiles wryly.
"Thank you."
He smiles and nods, then we all head out the door and outside to the car, getting in and
heading back to the hotel. We get there and walk through the lobby towards the elevators. She lags behind a bit, the combination of her knee and the heels proving to be uncomfortable.
"If it's uncomfortable to walk, you can take the shoes off." Mike mutters.
She looks between her shoes and the floor before taking her heels off.
"Better?"
She nods a little. Then we all get into the elevator and head up to our floor, walking out as we stopped and the doors opened. We say our goodnights and head into our own seperate rooms. Aly and Mike walk into their and her sets the bags down, while Aly decides to go right over to her bag and grab clothes to change into for bed. She goes and changes, coming out and stopping beside her bag to put away her clothes and to take off the brace. After she takes it off, she carefully walks over and ges into bed next to Mike. She stays sitting up for a minute, inspecting her knee.
"It's beginning to bruise already." She mumbles.
"Well at least it didn't swell up or anything since you had the ice on it."
"It still might swell up tomorrow." She shrugs, taking a pillow and putting it between her knees as she lays down.
"They do say it gets worse before it gets better..."
"True."
"Things will be okay, just try to get some rest."
She nods and reaches up for a kiss.
"Night, love you."
"Love you too." He says, kissing her.
Meanwhile Alex and I have changed and we slide into bed.
"So wasn't expecting for her to get hurt tonight. Especially the week before her rematch."
"I know but things happen unfortunately."
"At least she didn't break anything..."
"That's true."
"I hated the GM tonight..."
"Yeah, that sucked."
"How're you feeling by the way? Do I have to help you feel better?"
"That would be much appreciated." Alex says.
I laugh lightly, then I start rubbing his neck but sigh after a while.
"I'm surprised Randy hasn't already hurt you. Maybe he took what I said about hurting you,
and decided to cool it down a bit."
"Well either way, I'm just glad that nothing more has happened."
"Right, you have enough to deal with. Including the pushed back court date on the 22nd for
that DUI back in November."
He winces.
"Yeah not looking forward to that."
"Neither am I, but I'll be there with you. I'm sure if Mike and Aly can...they'll come too."
He nods.
"But we won't have to worry about it, until the day comes." I say, taking my hand away from
his neck and snuggling into him.
"Right." Alex says, wrapping his arms around me.
"Night love."
"Night." I say yawning.
